JOHN G. CAULFIELD During Jack’s stay at the Academy his scholastic and athletic abilities have made him the envy of his classmates. By his quiet and industrious efforts Jack has won for himself the rank of Captain in the Corps and a berth on the basketball team. He held membership in several clubs and was deservedly selected as Commander of the Freshman Crack Platoon. We feel that the winning of four Eagle Awards is but a slight indication of the success which Jack will undoubtedly achieve in his future undertakings.

CHLEBECK It would be impossible to pay tribute in a few words to a fellow like Andy. Everyone has nothing but the deepest re- spect and admiration for the quiet but affable Andy. As one of the greatest fullbacks St. Thomas will ever see and a star in basketball, track, and baseball, he has left with us an impression that will not be forgotten. Because of his afore- mentioned ability in sports, Andy is one of the most popular seniors. St. Thomas bids him a regretful but affectionate goodbye, and sincerely wishes him all the luck in the world.

GEORGE A. BUSSMAN George will be best remembered at St. Thomas, for his persistent campaigns as The Campus Reformer.” To many, George’s progressive ideas have classified him as a radical. However, those who investigated have discovered that his sentiments are deep rooted and profoundly sincere. As one of the bugler rookies, George has improved remarkably, until his present average of good notes and sour notes is about even. George’s ability to translate his Latin assignments in the literal, pony, or free manner will long be remembered at St. Thomas. Activities: Intramural Sports, ’35, ’36; Catholic Action Club, ’36. Military: Private First Class, ’38; Best Company, ’35, ’37; Best Platoon, ’36; Honor Badges, 4. FRANCIS J. CALVA As one of the most diligent, quiet, and successful cadets in our class, Francis has earned the friendship of many. That he is an outstanding scholar is readily proved by his Eagle Awards. His pleasant smile and stimulating character have stood him in good stead with his classmates. Francis, who is one of our better artists, can really do wonders with the pencil. With all these qualities we are sure that every part of success will be his. Activities: Eagle Awards, ’35, ’36, ’38; Intramural Sports, ’35, ’36.

MILTON J. COHEN Milt’s quiet but diligent application to his studies has rendered him a science student of the first class. His qualities as a laboratory technician have been the envy of his classmates. But Milt has not confined his stay at St. Thomas to science alone, for he has been prominent in the field of military and in extra-curricular activities as well. We feel certain that such faithful perseverance and study as Milt has exhibited cannot help but insure his success in his selected field of medicine.

His energetic application to his studies has gained him good marks, and an excellent rating among the faculty members. Dick has participated in all the intramural events on the campus. His farefree manner assures him success in his walk of life. Activities: Intramural Sports, ’37. Military: Best Company, ’37; Honor Badges, 2. MILTON J. COHEN Milt” Say, I'm hungry agam' RICHARD F.
