I G . . 9: A L 9 I3fg one bit of advice from the father of one of my classmates He being a wise and pru dent man told me that the essentials of a good speech were to have a good beginning and a good ending but to be sure to keep them close together Well classmates I have de cided to follow that advice I may not be wholly successful in the matter of the good beginning and the good ending but I promise you I will keep them close together I am sure that we all sadly realize that we are but two days from the time when we shall alumni descendant two days which will be crowded with drills competitions parades and other types of activity I am sure that I speak for every one of you when I say lets make the most of these few re marning hours so that we may go forth with no regrets and filled with pleasant memories of our days at St lohn s Let s make a strong finish Lets come under the wire like thor oughbreds or what is better like St Iohns men It scarcely seems possible that the years have gone by so rapidly To me it was only yesterday that we enrolled as New Boys The way looked long then didnt it? It didnt seem possible that this day would ever come It s true though classmates The tower clock has chimed out the hours and we are now at the point where we must say good bye But first let us consider what these years at St lohns have meant to us What have they done for us? Well for one thing they have brought us friends During the years that we have been here together we have cultivated many friends whom we shall never reioictng in our achievements and sympathiz mg in our disappointments and disilluslon ments Now that we have to leave and enter upon another stage of life we shall miss those friends with whorn we have worked and played and prayed And when I think of friends I am not thinking of schoolmates The Poem Our battle IS over the game has been won The last whistle is ready to blow And mates though the road has been long we are done And all the good players can go Our road was a rough one and often we strayed That we made our mistakes we admit But always with fairness and squareness we played And our slogan was never to quit We started together a team green and new Fire and weather both stood ln our way We conquered these hardships and other nes too And we conquered with courage we say I3 only. I am remembering too that never again shall we be able to easily avail ourselves of the cheerfully given and competent advice of our faculty No we shall now have to work out our own problems We shall have to reach our own decisions But that should not be hard With the training we have re ceived at the hands of our instructors both individually and collectively we should have no difficulty in solving any of our problems But friendships are not all that we have gained classmates We have found our selves By that I mean we have learned discipline so we can take orders We have learned leadership so we can give orders and above all we have learned cooperation so we may better be able to work with our fellow men If each and every one of us has taken full advantage of his training here he should be able better to serve his country and humanity long happily and usefully If I have any message for you at all tonight it is that That we have learned here the mean mg of true discipline and the real spirit of cooperation But now the time has come for me to bid you all good bye to wish you success in what ever venture you may undertake after gradu ation Believe me classmates it is not Just as if we were leaving one another for a short time because as we all know there are many of us here who will never again see one another many of us who will never again be able to partake in the thrills of such com panionship as we have enioyed here But even though we are not able to do those things in body at least we can do them in phrase that shall bind us together as a uni fied group as long as life shall last a phrase that has been on the lips of all St Iohn s men for the past fifty five years a phrase that has taken on a new meaning for us tonight Amici usque ad fmem Ioseph Clegg Ross fr The highway was rocky the job it was touah But we pushed ever forward with prtd To level all barriers we had the stuff And we took every one in our stride Now ir wasnt all work and tt wasnt al And sometimes we tripped on the way But we stayed on the yob till th Journey was don Ana n w we are going away So Comrades it s time to be saying Good ye Good bye with a choke an a tear With hearts rcwed wtth sorrow we hold our l' a lhamcmg G d for our Mens ries d ar Bernard G y Bo - , ' r 1 ' I I ' , , , I W L4 1 , 1 - ' 1 I 4 ' - ' I I I I ' I I - - .

AH v Fmh Pr 1 V f , ', Class Prophecy A short spell back I was informed that I was to be the Class Prophet of l94U This troubled my constitution for several days as I could not f1nd a suitable way to visualize the future for those graduating from this em porium of erudition Then one day a miracle happened While sitting in one of Looie Ruttes lengthy lectures on G I I fell into a deep slumber and before I realized what had hap pened I found myself in the year l955 I was sitting behind the wheel of one of the new rocket ships known as the Iirkmobile I turned on the ignition and found the motor to run with a familiar hup hup hup hup sound Upon closer examination I found its inventor was that ole classmate of mine Ioseph lrrka Well I decided to try the contraption out and I soon found myself entering the small town of Chlcago I at once thought of Arnie Arens and decided to find out who was taking care of him these days This was not hard as I soon ran across a sign reading Let Doc Arens Fix your Arteries Evidently he thought I was a customer for he met me at the door When he recognized me he yelled Hello Ioe whata ya know? It took less than a minute to answer this so I asked how business was He said Fine Fancy Francis operate and Roofie embalms we split fifty fifty I then told the Doc that I had a case of laryngitis and asked if he had any thing for it He said there was always plenty of ginger ale in the office and for me to sit right down I kindly declined his offer and quietly made my exit I had no sooner stepped on the street be fore I saw a huge crowd gathering around the corner I decided to investigate the noise and found the r ason to be my old school chum Ioe Ross Ioe had turned politician on me He was now standing on a soap box holding a srgn reading Ross for Boss and the Cause is not Lost However as he was Just beginning one of his lengthy spe ches I quietly ducked around the corner for my Iirkmobile I saw an advertisement Come to Florida the Sunniest Parta tha Country CWa1tll the California Old Boys hear about this? Any way this was good enough for me While cru sing over one of Arkansass better dirt roads I happened to notice a familiar name on a mailbox The Dyess Rotten Cotton Plantation so I turned in the gate and got out to ask rf this was the homestead of Billy f98I Dyess that old classmate of mine A tall lanky fellow met me here and I recognized hlrn to be none other than Phil Conway I sald Hello Phil Is Bill around? Yep Ioe hes asleep over there under that corn wagon but if I was you I wouldnt wake him One of his twelve chillen tried that the other day to find out if he was gonna eat or sleep that week and now he s only got eleven I gulped and asked how he got down in these parts He said little Willie had married into rich socrety and had asked for a good fast worker to take care of the place so he got the Job I asked him why he wasnt working and he told me he had done a little Work on Tuesday of last week and he was still recuperating With this I bade him farewell and again turned my Iirkmobrle for Florida Morning found me viewing the sights of Miami Beach and as I came across a very exclusive swim mlng pool I noticed the close resemblance of the lifeguard to an old classmate of mine Hank Clark Upon closer examination I found these to be one and the same person Believe it or not but Henry was puffing on a huge stogie and was acting as the main Judge at a beauty contest I stayed for the finish and found he selected Gretty Bable for her so I departed once again This time for that huge metropolis of Dela field I made this short Jump in no time and had no sooner hit the campus when I noticed the boys having a paJama parade I asked what the celebration was in honor of and was informed that President Bowen who had become famous after winning a certain feud with Robust Roy Michell was celebrating the arrival of his fifth consecutive boy A basket ball team' Could anything be nicer? Well once more I found myself departing for Chicago While cruislng through the Loop I noticed a huge neon sign ahead advertis ing Bowser Bachmans Skating Rink The Only Sport in the World Where You Can Start from the Bottom and End Up on the Same With such an advertisement I too found myself on the sucker list so I entered to try my skill I found Bowser grvrng free roller skating lessons to several different forms of femininity so I decided to slip out without saying hello Prom Chicago I decided to fulfill one of my many ambitions and visit Vcrssar I had no sooner landed on the campus than my at tention was caught by a group of females ' ' ' ' 1 ll I v VV I - In ll . - I I .

When the cadet leaves school one can see a marvelous change. The boy who en- tered in the fall with round shoulders slouch- ing Walk and many othcr defects leaves as a trim neat square shouldered man. This transformation is due only to one group of individuals the Military Staff. When the recruit comes for his first year he is taught the essentials of the solder. l the succeeding years he is given many re- T130 s onsibilities and taught how to run the s'naller units of the army until when he leaves h is an officer caoable of doing his part tc defend his ountry in time of strife and v ar Thus it is shown how the Military Staff i doing its part in making the United States a better nation After the Military Staff has worked and f ally has reached its goal a well trained and well disciplined organization it must se it leave never to return as a body again l 1 like working all your life to amass a for t ne only to lose it Just after you have got it Y t these men every year Carry Cn with only one thought in mind We will make the ext one a better one. We the Corps of Cadets wish to express ur thanks and gr titude to the Military Staff fer making men where there were boys and niaking us proud to be called men of St. lehn s. To the Corps of l94l we want to wish the ' est of luck. 'Play the Game and thc Mili- tary Staff will make you pro 'd of yourselves and your school.

Much credit for the suc- cessful running of the company must go to the non-coms for their support and work. Every last one in the company is to be commended for the splendid spirit and cooperation given, especially when it was needed most. We are really proud of the way everyone put out for the winter drills. In order to prac- tic it was necessary first to borrow the rifles from some other company and then to find time when no one else was using the space Although D did not win they showed up very well under the conditions ln w1nn1ng the first of the inter platoon competitions we hope that the first platoon has set a precedent which will be followed by all the following D Companies Although D never did reach the top in scholastic standing they were not at the bot tom either The company average kept ris ing and maybe if we had had nine more months we could have b en on top D was represented in all sports too Many of the outstanding athletic stars maae their beds in D barracks. Everyone who was in 'D Company this year will always remember the spirit and cooperation shown. Our conipany has gone through the acid test and by coming through the way we have, we've shown what a really top notch organization we had.

E Company General King Cup We may be one of the brat companies but that doesnt mean we arent equal to the big boys Starting off with a bang in Sep tember we found with us a good crop of new boys Most of our ex members from l938 39 returned and with them as a basis we turn d out one of the best organizations in the corps Mouse Schroeder was our commander for about four weeks and then loe Ross took over and since then he has done an excellent iob with the boys. Dick Connell, formerly of was our first lieutenant and Nobbs Smith, brother of our ex-captain, Len, was our second lieutenant. Up until the last of April, lirka was our first sergeant, but a promotion put him on the Staff and La Nez' Andros became first sergeant. 5149 For drilling we were right up there with the big boys Nobbs platoon was in the crack platoon competition which shows for itself At the R O A Crack Platoon Competi tion E had its share of men on the platoon During Iune Week we won the General King Cup for the best drilled company Scholastically speakmg we were right in there Allen R F was our ontribution to the head star group and Andros Al and Anthony Hallgren and Goetz were on the star list quite a few times. We had the Schroeder Cup twice and were second the other months. All in all, this has been a very good year in a ie . - E of n x' year, the E of this year hopes you will keep up the good Work and bring even greater glory to the brat company.

M. flszj The Band The story of this years Band is a tale of the grit and determination of a small organi zation in its efforts to keep pac with and demand the respect of the corps The l94U Band proved conclusively that numbers and strength are not as important to suc ess as are teamwork hard practice and coop ration Instead of viewing with alarm the strength of the outfit the officers and men under th guidance of Captain Thompson and Lreuten ant Butler took the problem in hand and pro du ed a musical organization which has n t been equalled in quite a few years Th re was no driftwood no silent or dummy horns each man realized that his particular part was important and played it accordingly The fire and its after effects made it ap parent that an increase of playing strength would require some method other than recruit ng new men Consequently seven men from the rifle companies were contacted and at various times during the latter part of the ye r they willingly and graciously rendered N. ' service t ey ou d. The Band o wishes to thank Cadets Hatch Drape. A.,- neke Dolce Kessel Kramlich and Barr s fc. their fine aid and spirit. This year the sete - tion of a Drum Major was made outside the band and the honor fell to Corporal Cadle cr NF' Company. gmt The Mrdwinter Concert was Judged by many to be one of the finest ever given Observers who have followed the Band for several years noticed in this years Band that richness and harmony which is absent in so many military bands The twelfth of May parade was another important event for the Band because of the many extra parts to the ceremony especially su h unexpected novelties as accompanying Mayor Zerdlers singing of th Star Spangled Banner The Band was also well epresented on the athleti fi lds Paul Wrigh was big gun in the lunior football backfiela and Swede Kausrud held his position as Number l hurler on the purple pitching staff Throughout the year Capta n Wilton Lieu tenant Kausrud First Serg 'it Dreher and Sergeant Fishman spent m ny long hours with the Bandmasters ironing out what ap peared to be unsurmountable problems main' ly: what could be done to pro 'uce from such a small mganization a band that would mea- sure up t the standard of the C 'rps of Cadets. The final sol 'tion of these pro lems is a long story whi h will always rem 1.. in our hearts and mem ries- now it is all o' er and we of the Class of 40 an look b -k with pride nn a hard it f well done.
