LEVEY Elmont, New York On a stormy day in September, 1960, Jim came rolling into the Maritime College astride an old white Olds. Ifear of 'the storm drove him to rack and he's had a hard time getting out ever SIUCC- He is by far the undisputed rack king of the class of '64. The Dance Committee's hardest worker, Jim, strove toibetter the College social life. His rotund body could be seen rushing all around whenever a dance was coming up. This rushing, HCCCSS-QTY or unnecessary, labeled him forever. Because of it, he was known, and still is, as the Little Round Liberty Hound. ' . , Jim also had frequent run-ins with the Captain including a case of a snow-bound car. But, as usual, he appeased his super1OrS with his diplomatic ways and unceasing Hnagling. . Cn his First Class Cruise as a Second Classman, Jim was marred by frequent bolts, and no letters from the iceberg, g . The Ridge impressed everyone in the class, and will be hard, 1f not impossible, to forget. Dance Committee: Pres. 135 , , M,

RICHARD K. LAING Williston Park, New York From the very beginning of his mug year, Dick was a leadir. He? led every formation and headed every company-all 75 inc es o him. At this height they couldn't find anyone big enough tO ph? 111 front of him. Throughout his four-year sojourn at the Maritime College, Dick's daily routine could be likened to the month of March. He began each day like a hungry lion and ended lt like a friendly lamb, usually socializing away the evening study hours. . Hailing originally from Long Island, he soon transported hiS long, lean frame to the sunny southland and became one of Mari- timels small, select group of Florida dwellers, no doubt using the low landscape to compensate for his height. u Usually punctual, Dick was overleave only once, and this was merely caused by his and several other cadets' project to donate fresh fruit to the Genoese citizens. Our Floridian,s real claim to fame at the Maritime College rested with his cars. After freezing an Opel, he decided to switch to a pink and black bomb which he was sure, by merit of color alone, wouldn't freeze up in any weather. Dick hopes some day to trade his Pink Ladyn in for a Navy jet, and for a guy who literally spends most of the time with his head in the clouds this should be a SNAP. Prop.

His squinting eyes and happy-go- lucky gait soon won him many friends among the class of '64. Rett ClU1Ckly acclimated himself to the military code and was promptly awarded several free, all expense paid vacations at the college. An ardent follower of submarine races, he developed maneuvers fOr hand to hand combat on all the national and international beach heads' SludYmg Came hard, very hard, to this jovial guy, yet good gfadCS became his trademark.

LUND Wayne, New jersey One of the known Jersey crowd, Phil came to Fort Schuyler from Wayne High School where he made his fame as a top cross country runner. His talent was soon recognized, and he became one of Matt Twomey's All Americans. When Phil's visions of gold but- tons and a good time were shattered, be became one of the week- end commuters back and forth to Jersey. Phil had a green thumb and at least once a month he tried to get some time in the ugardenf' Wherever you found a keg of beer and a good time, you found Phil in the midst of everything. Being one of the members of Watch Section 2 on the '63 Cruise, and a charter member of the terrible 2-H mob, Phil had his run-ins as well as good times. He is probably the only man known to jump ship and drive out the gate with Keim. For the future, Phil sees the Me1'chant Marine and Kathy.
