1943 BAYO ET STAFF This year's staff suffered little changing from the day it was organized. Colonel Mooney, with the aid of Harry Ball, selected a staff that have worked under strenuous conditions to complete the yearbook early enough to have it printed. Harry Ball did all that was possible in finishing the individual photos before he re- ported to the Army. Jimmie Street replaced Ball as editor and with the help of the staff he aided Colonel Mooney in giving you this yearbook. The various departments we shall take in order. First come the Senior Writeups. This sec- tion was ably handled by D. H. Smith, D. L. deForest, and George Duke. Then the athletic department. Duvall George and his associates, John Street, and Hunter Trotter did a fine job on a subject that heretofore was dedicated chiefly to varsity sports. Trent and R. O. Davis handled the mili- tary department in their usual efficient manner. Eddie Wilson, Jimmie Butler, and Gornto set up the activities, and turned in a splen- did piece of work. Block handled the faculty, and helped Jimmie Street with the features. Serra and Gellerstedt also spread their wit through that section. Pohler again headed the art department with the assistance of Galonoy and J. A. Gibbs. The photographers were curtailed by the lack of film and developing equipment but they have done what they could. Benson and Minges were the major contributors. All in all, we think that you will enjoy this year,s issue. We have done our best.

MOORE Cowlmlmluul THE Undoubtedly the school year would DOI have been as pleasant as it was, if we had not had the splendid and co-operative Faculty we had during the past year. Actually there wasn't a single officer on the Faculty that was not considered a regular fellow by the entire Corps. Under the always faithful and never-failing hand of General Sandy Beaver, Presi- dent, the school has produced citizens of high rating for the past thirty years. Here at Riverside the individual cadet is analyzed and is directed into the held to which he will be best suited for later life. Heading this department of guidance and regis- tering of cadets are: Colonel Mooney, Registrarg Colonel Garner, Dean: and Colonel Clemens, Assistant Registrar. Probably the most important department of the school is the Mathematics Depart- ment, in which the young man is given training in fundamental mathematics as well as advanced studies in this subject. Headed by Colonel Vifatson, rated among the leading mathematicians of the country, the mathematics department includes Majors King, Merchant, Clay, Garrett, and I.t. Dillard. The linglish Department, headed by Colonel Garner, furnishes a thorough course in fundamental grammar and literature. Colonel Garner is assisted by Captains Ferry, Bryant, Castille, Rose, I.t. W'oodring, Colonel Myers, and Major l.ee. Perhaps this would be a good time to mention the Military Department. Headed by Colonel Overstreet, and ably assisted by Captain Caperton, Sergeant Porter and Private First Class Allen, this department has produced-the Corps! Under these men the individual cadet has learned basic and advanced M. S. 8L T. To these men our highest tribute should be paid. The Foreign Language Department of the Academy provides full studies in French, Latin, Spanish, and German. Maior Wrigltt, Captains liachclder and Barnhart, and Lt. Markley, compose the able staff.
