Not this time.H As anyone can judge, Don was one of the Boiler , to t men Whenever a boiler or a ioiige Division s es . party came up, Don was always on hand to make sure the job was done efficiently. Winter weekends found him duck hunting on Long Island whenever home iniiuences didn,t force him to hitch-hike north. The traveling was a hit cold until, one day, he happened to come u on a 1955 Dodge. Ah, yes, the HBiue Beetien P was a nohie machine. Don is quite a guy. He never got over his con- tempt for deck hands and, when asked why he spoke to them only in monosyiiahies if at au, he would reply that that was an they were capaioie of understanding.

Through the painful years as an underciassman he struggled to maintain these precious attributes: and he not only sustained them hut developed Such other marks of character as resourcefuiness and quick thinking. His high scholastic standing, his tine conduct record, and his self confidence are but a few of the reasons why he is respected hy cadets and instructors alike. It is not difficult to remember to whom we went When our homework was giving us trouioie. The helping hand, the simple explanation, and the cor- rect answer were always ohtainahie for the asking. We all agree that this Robert Taylor will he a Credit to school and country.
