W. LAWRENCE KENNY Hr'nzpstc'ad, New York If We were to liken Fort Schuyler to the .school of hard knocks We mio-ht gay that Larry Kenny was one individual who entered .th ienty of padding, Hailing from the jungles of Hempstead wriqhe P01d Wrecking Balli' met and mastered all that the wardens of our hallowed grey walls could throw at' him, and mastered every- thing well too, for time after .time his name appeared on the Coveied Admiral's List. W..L. did not stop at academics however, but added to his list of achievements such extra-curricular activities as LaCrosse and the Propeller Club. . ' ttwrecking Ballw loved the dangerous and exciting so much that durino' his four years here he had many aa close scrape. Old and Senileeas he may become, Weinre sure that he ll never forget his high dive from the not-so-merry-time stage, nor the time he rode shot. gun in the car that carried his roommates within the confines of its trunk. In years to come, he can tell his children how his love of I liberty caused him to be one of the few men to ever be restricted in the great port of Albany. In any event we are sure. the Merchant Marine is getting a good man, and a blue-eyed lassie a good hug. band in Larry, and we wish them both the best of luck.

KISLINC Setauket, New York The wind was howling and the tropic-like rains were draining the lush Maritime College Campus when the '4Dashing Dane from Port Jeff arrived to begin four years of college education and in- famous pleasure cruises. Attempting to be true to his valiant Viking ancestors, he settled down to the labors so freely tossed on him. On our Hrst cruise, we'll all remember the tremendous welcome awaiting him on the pier in Copenhagen, his wonderful home- land, and all the trouble he caused the old man and his XO-well, he did get the entire weekend off. During his third class year, he was a changed man. The town of Hempstead soon had a new adopted son. Oh, those Danish Ro- meoas? His second cruise was one of torture for him, not only be- cause of his personal feelings but also because of his demerit record as well as the Rome Tour, 2H,'l and of course his friends, Bert and Frank. During his second class year, trips to Hempstead were more fre- quent and studies more of a grind. He proved his prowess as a Viking by coxswaining a team as the top boat on the Maritime Rowing Team, despite his friend Walt. His third and final cruise was one of day counting and letter reading. However, Rick was again able to show his proficiency by being appointed a school marmf, X I I .Now it's alllover, and Rick will be remembered by all of us for his undying spirit in everything he attempts. After graduation, Fort Schuylers loss will be the world's gain. . Cadet Training Ofiicer, Soccer Team, Intramurals, Band, Rowing Team Prop.

I. . ,fi is CLINTON A. HUNT Nlomey, Neat' York After spending four years at Spring Valley Senior High School, Clint decided to venture forth from his home in Mansey, New York, to that ever so collegiate peninsula, Fort Schuyler. Clint has con- tinued his active record from Spring Valley by participating in varsity and intramural sports. In his sophomore year he established a foothold on the vaisty basketball team. At the beginning of the Junior year, Clint decided to become one of the 'tbeep-beep nu- cleons when he transferred from engineering to nuclear science. He will long be remembered for his uHey Lady on and oll' the basketball court. How Clint ever put up with the Schmoo for four years was a miracle in itself, but his roommate did get him to write a set of rules entitled 'eHow to handle Blondes and Brunettes. Clint's future plans are undecided as of yet. He has always wanted to become a jet pilot of Uhotw airplanes, but his hopeful future posed in the other picture is making him into a tame family man.

His background in languages, presidency of the g I.R.C., rounded out with four years service III the library, made nself each and every new country a social, political and most of all a Own personal challenge. Being. the captain ofihis high school swimming lund team, his First Class Cruise watch standing was complete with the 3 chief lifeguard watch in Majorca. F WWE He has always been one of the boys, even down to being called Wlt Degee's Den with the rest of 2I-I, but somehow he managed to it I stay clear of demerit action. A weekend without seeing John head- alma ing toward Marymount or a convention of one sort or the other , would be a true rarity. However we,re all waiting to see him come lY1n back from liberty one night driving a fire engine and waving a bot- tle of Rhinegold. Upon graduation he plans to ship out for a few years, then go on to graduate school. We all wish that the years between twenty and thirty could double for John, so that he can do all the living he deserves.

GECRCE W. KOCH Flushing, New Ygyk George, The Bearf, came to SUMC from Flushing. YVhile at- tending Bayside High School 'iBear took an extra course in hair cutting which has led to some busy Friday nights and Saturda mornings, to the relief of his classmates, and some trouble for th! Cadet Barber on his Mug cruise. Along with haircuts Bear had some unexpected liberties that year. 9 HBear is an active participant in man o ular colle ' ' ' such as Yacht Club, French and Spanisl11pClDubs, and gieaixvdfisf association. When he is not participating in any of these worth- while activities, HBear can be found growling at one of the run- ning boats, as a good Boat Division Leader should. just to prov-e that he was one of the boys. the Bear partici- pated in the scandalous Rome tour of '62. Along with nearly every- one else he managed to miss Rotterdam. All in all, George is an affable fellow despite his growls, and will do very well in his chosen world of shipping. Yacht Club, Prop.

KOCZUR Bujalo, New York Dave immigrated to the United States from Buflalo, New York, in September, 1960. He had studied English for several years before he arrived, so he quickly caught on to the native tongue of Ameri- cans. Although not particularly known for his cheery attitude when he first rouses out at reveille, Dave is famous for his smile and easy- going manner finding it not too hard at all to get along with every- one Qeven teasing roommatesj. One of our first and ardent meteorologists, Dave was the Cadet Head Meteorologist on the '62 cruise. Dave pranced the decks with a sling psychrometer and portable rain gauge. Funny thing about Dave, he has completed three years of navi- gation, but he still thinks that the earth revolves about an axis with one pole at Wappinger Falls and the other at the United States Wfeather Bureau.
