C0llll8l'fi!'l!l Sully As YOU XVPIRI-In SULLY is the smallest officer in the l7Uth Infantry. He is likewise one of the most popular officers. I do not believe that Sully is a graduate of Yale College, but am sure that Yale College is pleased to be in the SJIIHC city with the nice little chap. The only trouble with Ben- ning, as Sully puts it, is that thc roads are too near his knees. -1 'S ol Q- '? -5' 2 f' -J I w w! Tum. 4 'Wt

I, consecutive year launched its representative athletic teams into the campaign for sporting honors in the realm of southern col- legesg and in each instance they once more represented the In- fantry in southern college athletic sports with honor and with credit. lt Facing the longest, most strenuous, and best arranged schedule in football ever attempted at the school, the athletic authorities began in the sweltering month of August to assemble prospective candidates. At the completion of this assembly for practice it was noted that not one f f member of the varsity team of 1922 was present. I' f However, such splendid soldier athletes as Davis, p ' Lapine, Steelman, Daniels, Sharpe, Swantic, Sanlo- -fp.-: wich, and Kjelstrom, who had served honorably as scrubs, were on handg and for the first time in The In- fantry School athletic his- tory enlisted men furnished the nucleus for the varsity team. Dwyer, Douthit and Stew- art, who had prepped at West Point, enlisted for a commission. The Company Officers' Class furnished ex- cellent material for the squad in Ankcorn, Boat- wright, Halsey, Fortier, Gor- man, McKenna, Reed, and Neff. The remainder of the squad was composed of sol- diers who graduated from intra-mural football. The Y MILBLIRN ZELLARS E' to 'S I F 1 lu ,sf 4 x nb
