Although often seen around the infir ary, Gomer is quite well. The whole class is wondering how he managed to get through four years at the Academy with as little work as he did. He is the hard-boiled first-sergeant of A Com- pany. C. . I M, r'-1,1 M, , 'ig 9D fvgP'li'i,l fWi. L'.' .-'V . 'L JACK VV. Rofisi .L ' S . . HJACKU Born March S, 1920, in Denver, Colorado.

He was always the life ot' the partyn no matter where he happened to be. Besides holding up the line from the guard position, he managed to always be on the bottom ofthe pile when the whistle blew. We are glad to hear that he has succeeded so far in college. lHl SKIHMISHlH

Suds holds a coveted honor-the presidency of the Guardians. On top of this, he is Battalion Adjutant. He has no mean sports ability, having made a couple of major letters. This spring saw him looking through the catcher's mask for the baseball team. Those who are acquainted with his slow smile and ready wit will miss him next year. ROBERT H. TESKE . .

The Band lost an able First Sergeant when Bob graduated in February. He and Haaker were as inseparable as ham and eggs.

Not being a fresh-air field, Billy mystified us all in regard to his daily walks down 91st street. Let it never be said that he missed an Academy dance-at least, as long as a certain girl was in town. His dogged determination at foot- ball practice was a revelation, even though he didn't play much. There is also a sense of humor present that helps him take things as they come without grumbling, lHl SKlHMI3HlH
