JOHN F. WILSON Marlboro, New York MJF' was not the typical cadet, if such an animal exists. Slightly indolent by nature, out and out lazy by choice, not anti-military but totally unable to avoid trouble, he carved, or rather, hacked out a strange record. 4.0', Cslightly fudgedj the first three semesters, Ad- miralls List all the way, John seemed to put in a minimum of time and worry on the books, in time becoming an advocate of the scap. The reading room of the Library and the Armoryls basketball courts held a far greater fascination for him than Bowditch. So did the light, drab, gray, weekday existence. He became co-editor of View- point and a member of all intramural teams. Taking a fancy to yellow sheets, he collected and still cherishes his 75 worth. Not par- ticularly beloved bythe upper classes, his friends were those nuts who, like himself, believed in a personal joie de vivre,'l and not in the sanctity of the military community. After the blessed event, graduation, he plans a career of planning careers, or some such nonsense. 322 . i Tk ' i' 'fest ,AXE Q' 'ffi V f .. ,fwfr 2,5 ' X s ..,. ..

Roy is the type of guy who is sought after by many organizations such as the Pershing Rifles Drill Team because of his excellent military bearing, neat appearance, and outstanding military record. His First Class Cruise highlighted the two characteristic traits that will always remind us of our Roy. The first is that the ladies fllll of Paris will always remember him as The Prince of Pigallef' and the second is his twenty-four hour work day as Gig Captain- twenty-three in rack, one in the Gig!
