WILLIAM W. CUNNINGHAM Bill ALEXANDRIA, VA. GEORGETOWN Bill is the ideal matinee idol-wavy chestnut hair and a rosy complexion. The glasses that he dons in the privacy of his room for study might lead the cas- ual observer into thinking Bill's is an earnest grind. But it isn't-far from that. Bill's somewhat lackadaisical manner has a lazy charm that does much for mak- ing his slow smile seem so very hospitable and sincere. The cadet corps will miss this fine upstanding young lieutenant. Bill, however, is just dying to get out in the world to try his mettle. He is dead sure to succeed-following in the wake of many other great men. NORMAN L. DeCINDIS Norm PHILADELPHIA, PA. PENN STATE Norm came to us from the Quaker State's principal metropolis-Phib adel hia. Although his sojourn at Massanutten has been short, he nevertheless has flound time to make his name well known on the campus. He was a reliable and consistent member ofthe varsity football squad. But he was perhaps a more illuminating figure on the M.M.A. glee club as soloist, in which ca acity he con- vincingly demonstrated his ability and talent. Neither is the art ofppugilism un- known to him, but he has no ambition to be crowned champion. Norm will enter the portals of Penn State next fall, where he will take a business course. Suave, friendly and likable, this chap should have no difficulty in the commercial world. WILLIAM DEN1soN ffBi11 CRANBURY, NJ. GRADUATE WORK Bill came to us as a newcomer last September, but it was only a very short while before we all felt the charm and warmth of his personality. He plans to enter the milling business of his father and work his way up from the bottom until he becomes internationally famous as the big corn, wheat and oats man from New Jersey. Bill has shown real histrionic ability as a member of the Gar- rick Dramatic Club and has rendered invaluable service as a member of the trum- pet section of the band and orchestra. Bill has also been a member of the staff which issues the yellow sheet. l25l Fl! THE ADJUTAN YY!

CRAFTON, PA. ALBERT F. CONRAD fCTiny,Y DUKE Most young chaps as huge as Tiny have the urge to bully their less for- tunate fellows, but with this Behemoth, not so. As gentle as a dove Cexcept when he does a little very amateurj, he sees no harm, thinks no harm, and hears- well, we ain't sayin'. If making money were as simple as doing math or taking an end out of an off-tackle play, Tiny could cell the Colonel to go ahead and start in on a dozen new buildings and that he'd foot the bill. lt may turn out to be that easy for him after all. Who can fancy a business prospect ever saying No to this Tarzan? On second thought, we think we'll just start excavating for the new dorm at least. NATHAN H. CORMAN Bullet WOODSTOCK, VA. FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL l-lonk! Honk! Honk! No, it's not a flock of wild geese overhead, but Bul- let coming at you with his Henry F- fyou guess what kind D coupe. This enter- prising local boy has been a student at Massanutten since away back when, and is as much and as indispensable a part of the school as the mess hall or the Colonel's specs We understand that Bullet has big plans for the future, and we feel confident in redicting happiness and success as rewards which lie just around the corner For you, pal. Good-bye and good luck to one who, we feel assured, will make us all sit up and take notice some day. ' THOMAS COURTNEY, Jr. Tom LAKEWOOD OHIO UNITED STATES NAVAL .ACADEMY Y Lakewood has sent us Knot by our permissionj a handsome, well-built chap with the monicker of Thomas, shortened by the cadets to Tom. Shhhli--it has been rumored that he signs his very personal letters Lochinvar. Our subject is a very conscientious type, quite so in all his undertakings. The fall saw Tom cart- ing and booting the pigskin into kingdom come, the winter season saw the Grecian-built lad splashing his way to many points for the Foutsmen, and the spring term saw our idol tossing and heaving the baseball from the mound 5. la Lefty Grove. Lakehurst has its dirigibles, and Lakewood has its Tom Courtney. THE AD JUTANT-1936 ak un 4:0

- .W .,., PITTSBURGH, PA. JOSEPH V. DONATELLI C 5J0e, Y UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Joe-alias Haile -is the fire-eater whose Latin temperament flames up so often in picturesque UD outbursts of expressive emotion.

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND Hold on there, ladies and gentlemen, and gaze on the countenance of the Ubig pork and beef man from Catonsville. Frank is such a livestock expert that he can take one long, wistful look at brown bossy and tell you without bat- ting an eye whether or not her randpappy came from edigreed stock. We don't know just what plans Frani may have in prospect For the future, but we rather suspect they'll have a meaty twang to them. In athletics, this genial younlg gentleman has limited his activities mainly to track. Here's to you, Fran ! ALLAN C. DUFF ' 'Allan' COLLINGSWOOD, NJ. SPRINGFIELD Allan is a worthy subject for the respect and honor of those who admire in- tense and whole-hearted participation in whatever one undertakes. Not always a winner, this cadet probably derives as much a thrill from the fray as those who are. As an armory stooge, track candidate, infantry corporal and general util- ity man, Allan keeps the campus buzzin with activity. Each day, from reveille until taps, he can be seen dashing to ant? fro concentrating his determined coun- tenance upon the objective to be accomplished, whether it be a hundred-yard dash or the mastication of a Wrigley's finest. Allan works as hard as he plays, and best of all, he is sure to get a big kick out of life! THE AD UTANT-1936 lk C265
