WALTER F. DABBERDT St. james, New York Walt, .affectionately know to his classmates as t'Dabs, came to the Maritime College from Valley Stream South High School. He joined the class of '64 in September, 1960. Having no enemies, Walt was looked up to with both respect and reverence, not only by the underclassmen, but also by his own class. During the latter part of his third class year, Dabs decided that a life at sea wasn't exactly his calling, so he then became a meteoro- logist. He was an ardent man with the books, as can be seen by his fine scholastic record, but always had time to help a friend in need. The school recognized his scholastic ability by making him a Cadet Training Officer on the ,63 cruise, and we are sure the Third Class wonlt forget his quizzes given every instruction day. Not only will the Third Class remember him, but we'll never forget Walt, and we are sure Walt will never forget us.

ROBERT A. DiNAPOLI Beacon, New York When '4Club Foot came to the fort from the backwoods of Bea- con, New York, his grubbin' eyes won the affection of all. He has the distinction of being the only man in the history of Fort Schu - ler to go through three years without buying a pair of slippers orya laundry bag, his roommates can testify to this fact. On Carby,s Mug Cruise his apprenticeship as a porter under Old Siegsn was rudely ended one day when the hairy old man with a moustache changed his mind about becoming a porter, His ambition and ability to keep his nose to the grindstone will surely make him a success in life, which will be shared by a girl named Pam patiently waiting for him in Beacon. Nuclear Science is Bob's game, and upon graduation he will set out to win it. r. . S ff id',.M ' l 1' .i S 355' 0 V' I, P 5 5 :- sf 2 ru 2233 IISSSSSSSSSSSSS333333333325 ' THoMAs J. DoNoHUE Bronx, New York Tommy, who hails from the Bronx, came to the Maritime Col lege to combine his interests in engineering and ships. He quickly learned that survival of the fittest meant avoidance of the upper class. After a rather placid Mug and Third Class year, he combined with the Little Water Rat to form the all night twist party which resulted in too many no-so-exciting hours on MIAPS during his S d Class Cruise. His Second and Third Class years were high- econ lighted by numerous all day rack-out sesslons with his roommate Ri Van Winklei' Egan, and the joy of owning a shiny whistle. He P is probably the only person who never lost his even temperament while in attendance here. ' ' ' b f ttl' fs? .. xr Q X . , .
