One of the modern Minute Men, Cutch could be seen speeding across from Biglerville in his high powered Ford which had two wheels always in the air. Then a wild dash afoot and he yelled 'Tall inl' as he tied the knot in his tie.

Always short on the supply of mat- ches, cigarettes, pencils, etc., he is forgiven be- cause of his offer, Put your trust in Old George and he'll get you over the river. FRANKLIN MILLER COCHRAN Cdpfclill, llzfazzfry Old Folks I DIDNXI' SKIP ITU LATE a field officer in the Georgia Guard, Cochran doesn't 'fhanl:cr after the strenuous duties of Fl Doughboy captain. Day after day he carefully considers the advisability of transferring to the Q. M. C. or the possibility of getting back the old job as assistant to the Adjutant General of Georgia. JOHN CONSTANTINE CODY Captain, Illfzwtry UXVHEN I was XYITH THE IJERMONT GUARDH THE tallest man in tlIe class. So tall, in fact, is this lad from the 20th that it takes a mean man to stand in front of him and sing The Bridge of Spain will cry with pain, etc, He has only twenty some years in the service and therefore can belong to the select few who batted them out each noon to. thc tune of Once in the islands.

At the begin- ning of the course Dick announced . .no social engagements, no outside interests while the course lasts and the way he has A ed himself through shows that he meant it. LEWIS CLARK DAVIDSON Capfizilz, lllfllllffy Dave KSHAPE UPU WITH Co. B to command, Dave had a manls sized job on his hands and he is small of stature, too. However, he handled his job well, took hawlings out for the rest of us and looked mean only when occasion demanded it. Here is hoping that he will soon he a Major and all of us from Co. B can command companies in his bat- talion. JOHN THOMAS DIBRELL Cajvfzzivz, Izzfazztry Dib HASK MD, I USED T0 BE IN THE THIRD INFANTRYH DIB is another member of the .99 Club who plead so earnestly for the wee fraction neces- sary to make expert. His greatest hohhies are shoot- ing on the wrong target, firing on the wrong order missing or delaying formations and playing pranks. He has a winning smile for everyone, especially when getting one of his jokes across. IRVVIN EDWARD DOANE Captain, Infantry Chaplain WHY XVORRYH IT is rather hard to know whether Doane is scowling or thinking. His serious, dignified mien impresses one with the idea that he should be a General. From his usual good marks, one must judge that he thinks more than he scowls. That conclusion places him among the thoughtful ones who balance those restless spirits whom old age cannot overtake.
