1 1 STEPHEN M. GABRYS Queens, New York No scholar he, but still a student of the art of living, The Grap- pler plowed through Schuyler where other cadets ran, fought. and struggled to survive among the rocky obstructions that abound in the course which marks the four year voyage from indoctrination to graduation. He came as part of the hurricane class, but, by and large, his general, easy going personality hid the explosive soul which he would only reveal in a cyclone of controlled fury to his opponents on the fencing mats. Master of the rapid descent on the bridge ladders, The Grap- plerl' will detour for two years before taking up his career in the Mechant Marine, where we expect his rise to be as rapid as his descent fom the bridge.

GALLO Brooklyn, New York Brooklyn born Frankie Gallo, often ribbed about his notorious namesake brothers, came to the fort to satisfy a quest for knowledge and, at the same time, fulfill a challenge. After the Mug YCHIH Frank transferred to West Point, hoping that both academics and military challenge would be greater. This was not the Case- The imbalance between the two was such that he returned to the Fort the following September. This one summer's orientation may have been an experience but it will cost that uOne last Cruisef' D 3 Frank's ease with books quickly earned him the Admirals Star and at the same time left room for some extra-curricular activ- 1t1es. During the Second Class Year Frank was dividing his time between the Judo Club, the Band, the Viewpoint, and the P07'f1l0l5- This heavy schedule was eased by an untimely dislocated shoulder Was all to the profit of the Viewpoint and the Porthole and to the loss of the Judo Club. Frankis four years at the fort have .b66r1 marked by a conscientious effort to gain knowledge and Cxpeflence and, 111 turn, use these to the profit of the school. 1 After a few years at sea Frank plans to attend graduate sCl1OO 0fhBuSlf1ess Adminisration and a career in the maritime industry 3.8 ore.

JOHN H. FREDERICK East Greenbush, New York Big John hails from 'fGod's Countryf' Cowls Corners N.Y., which is probably a fictitious name given to it by the residents to confuse the Topography Office. He entered the college bright eyed and bushy tailed, he left blood shot and clean shaven, a little wiser. john will be remembered for his fondness of Cathy, the joy juice in the morning, and the ladder well leading to Sick Bay in the morning when John was in Ville- France. John and his classmates will never forget his evening out, for which, a short time later, he was presented with his name en- graved on a yellow sheet of parchment. Big John was one of the Saltwarts of the Sailing Team and an essential fixture Csuch as a seatj in the Shield's Class boats. John will not be forgotten for the partshe played in entering the Sword Fish Hotel in Torremolinos for a day's swim in the pool, and there- fore John's name is graven in our memories for his calm in times of crisis.

'F FRANK S. GIACCIO Bronx, New York An alumnus of Mount Saint Michael H.S. in the Bronx, Frank found a home aboard the Gray Scow and enjoyed himself so much that during his first year in the granite.tomb that six of his room- mates left. But then the jinx reversed itself and only through ex- treme effort and continuous study was he able to last for the re- maining fun-filled years. Never known for his brilliance, it is said that he made the curve possible. He. was always knee deep in trouble, and just managing to keep his head above water in his studies. His charm and personality were .lus ace-in-the-hole, es- pecially with the underclass fthe 4fc deckies voted him the most hated Indoctrination Omcerl. Frank's only claim to fame is being able to cha-cha-cha in Ro- man elevators and end up twisting with a priest. After graduation, the no sweat-just perspirationi' kid will try the Merch for a few years before some lucky heiress lets him have a ball and chain. Intramurals, Newman Club, N.A.M.E.: Secretary.
