Summer on the Move Once again restless students spent the summer galavanting around the globe enjoying the environment of foreign lands. Escaping from the boredom and heat of Memphis, students ended up in such diverse places as England, Colorado, the Cayman Islands, and the Bahamas. Following tradition, a group of students chaperoned by Coach Craig Schmidt traveled to England and Paris on the MUS-in-England program. Other adventurous souls like John Owen and Chris Crosby traveled to the Cayman Islands and Nassau to enjoy the sun and fun of these havens of excitement. While some students left Memphis, Bruckner Chase returned from Australia after spending a year there as a Rotary Exchange Student. Mixing business with pleasure, John Owen spends the summer months working under the glorious blue skies of the Cayman Islands. Down on the farm, Johnnie Barringer, George Early, Tommy Cooke, Kimbrough Taylor, and Jay Steed take a much needed break from baling hay. Slicing through the water with his bare feet, Robert Hollabaugh demonstrates the most painful form of water skiing at a barefoot ski camp in Wisconsin. 24 STUDENT LIFE
