One of the most studious persons on the campus, T will be remembered more for his stormy relations with the military department. He also played baseball for his entire four years at the Academy, being a manager in his off seasons for the other teams. Tom's friendly spirit and modest manner make him friends galore, while his distinctive way of saying Animal Crackers made him a hit at the annual Minstrel Show.

If it were not for an unfortunate broken wrist, Mac', would have had a chance to make an even better showing than he did in football. As it was, he acted as a mainstay for Major Bouma's track team, but another injuryffor- tunately later in the seasonekept him out of parts of several of the basketball games. Notwithstanding, he was a star in this sport. GEORGE D. MOORE . .. 7.453 PE Born September 16, 1919, ic li ' 'red M. P. M. A. in 19.34fro n Hi c Private Co.
