THE E IUP1 CLASS The end of the trail wends its way into sight, and dreams of diplomas become realities for the Senior Class. The daily class schedule of MPMA will be but a routine of the past. No more will the seniors hear the calls of classmates echoing in the halls, and the classrooms will become but memories. The four years completed at MPMA will undoubtedly never be exceeded in happiness during the future years of their lives. We feel confident that no matter how long the distance lying between the seniors and their old friends at MPMA, there will always be a yearning for the day when these same class- mates will meet again to talk over old times. The Skirmisher staff salutes the Senior Class for providing the leadership and spark in making the past year a successful one, and setting an example to be followed by the underclassmen. lndividually, and as a group, they made their mark in the academic, military, athletic, and social activities at the academy. Lt. Colonel Cyril Brdecka served as the Battalion Commander. He was also the winner of the coveted Chicago Tribune medal for military achievement. Frank Burd captained the varsity football team manned with seven seniors on the starting eleven. Cy Brdecka captained and was the leading scorer on the varsity basketball team. Harry Stutts captained the wrestling team and won the sectional wrestling title at 133 pounds. Frank Casey captained the baseball team. Paul Berezny and Harry Stutts captained the track team.
