Walking off with top h nors in everything he puts his hand to, RuCly should be an example to those who follow him. He graduates with the distinction of having one of the highest set of grades ever to be produced at the Alma Mater. ln addition, he was the top point man in the Hearst Trophy match for the Sixth Corps Area. His sunny smile and an occasional joke make him well-liked. ARTHUR G. JOHNSON . joHNN1E Born .Marek 31, 1920, in Chieaga, Ill1710I'.f. Entered M. P.

His ability in the water makes him a second johnny Weissmuller, although George has had little chance to display it. Every- one is sorry that this is his last year and-it is also his first. A well-used Kodak testifies to the fact that he is a camera- bug. lHl SKIHMISHHI

Po is the leader of our swing band. He acts as the accordian player and crooner, also. His antique car is the butt of many jokes, but he defends it by saying we should have respect for the aged. The football team will be at a loss without his playing next year. Many people will miss his lively conversation. JULIUS KERN . . . 'fIAY Born May 2, 1919, in Gaty, Indiana. Entered M. P. M.

He has served only one year at the Academy, but it is evident that he didn't need four to become a good soldier and a true lVIOrgan Park cadet. Occasionally he and the fellow who follow in the next writegup have had disagreements with outsiders in which the outsiders had several large dents as a result. ' K GEORGE' A.

The big, juicy chevrons on Stony-Puss's arms are not his only reason for popularity with the frail gender of the species. Two years in a row he has earned a letter in heavy football. There are few who are his equal when the target range is reached and firing commences. Our Battalion Com- mander started out his military career with four years in the Lower School, the last one of which witnessed a pair of captain's chevrons on his sleeves. 1 Qlviilf ,-y,fy'4-41.
