Q My WILLIAM O. BOYLE Center MOTiC1Il75,lN76ZL' York Bill, known as the Oaf,,' among the boys, came to Fort Schuyler from Center Moriches, Long Island. Much of his spare time he has devoted to playing in the College Dance Band. We have never seen him at the fort when there was a liberty to be had, and sometimes when there was none. Bill is noted for his high morale and his jovial nature. After graduation, Bill plans to ship in the Merchant Service for a few years. Eventually he plans to return to Palma de Majorca, which he calls the best port he has been in, as yet. Band, Dance Band. .N 1. 1 y . W s g ..,.i,-I 1 i X . .trr N ,i,,, . A ..

BRADFORD Valley Stream, New York George, an ex-Chaminade FlyerH came to the Maritime College from Elmont to become a Privateer.', While at the fort, Brad spent his time tingling the twines and upholding his standing .on the rack-squad. George spent his weekend liberties throwing parties and entertaining an assortment of his girls. When cruise time came, George became an adventurer who traveled to the most exotic places in Europe and absorbed all of the continent's culture. He will never forget his many experiences on the cruise including the gift that the strange conductor on the train from Rome gave him, his thirstless tour of the port of Rotterdam, the magnificent view of the Port of Oslo, and his nightclubbing in Rome. n George hopes the future will bring many fruitful years of ship- ping out along with the Vette'7 he's always wanted. Welre sure that he'll be successful in whatever he does. French Club, Prop Club, Eight Bells, Managing Editor. 103

He adapted himself to the Hmilitaryw routine quite easily, and it wasn,t long before he was selling milk and sandwiches with his brother. John made friends easily and could always be found talking about anything and everything, except school work. Although a firm be- liever in plenty of rack, John was one of the top men in his class academicall . In his Segfond Class Year, John switched to the Nuclear program and, somewhere along the line, picked up the nickname Mono- Nucf, Every night when it was time to dow homework, his room turned into a meeting place for the 'fnucsf' much to the dismay of his engineer roommates. On the cruises, John acquired a taste for the European spirits, and has memories of many a good night of liberty. He will always remember Dublin, where it was just like bleinlgl atlllgme for him, and will never forget St. Patty's Day and t e ote 1CtOr1a. As for the future, John is looking forward to graduate school followed by a career in nuclear engineering. If the past is any in- dication of the future, John is stu'e to be a success.
