Armed with his vol- uminous dispatch cases, riding crop, black hen and other paraphernalia Eggie pounces upon any word of wisdom unwittingly escaped from the lips of an instructor and he cheerfully shares the dope with thc rest of us. ALFRED ALOE Colonel, Infantry King Alfred HCUT oU'I' THAT TALKINGU KING ALFRED holds the bag for the Advanced Class, and as a buffer between the shorn lambs and the cold winds and hot, he is :ans pareil. He never would accept it if he were ever licked. He may have trouble chasing contours, but he has the respect and admiration of students and instructors alike when it comes to being a fighting man. WESLEY FROST AYER Majors, Illfllllffj' ' Frosty USILENCEH FROS'Fl' was in the class for three months be- fore it was learned that he could say more than good moI'ning,', but when he turneil loose on the Monograph he made the welkin ring. Oratory, diction, humor, all the essential features were there in one of the best presentations in the class. Good boy, Frosty, would that every one talked only when he had something to say. PHILIP 1L'IAXALL BAGBY Maj01', Infantry Phil HTHERE IS STILL A QUEsTIoN IN MY MINDH PHIL bade fair to qualify for the Croix de Questionnaire early in the year, hut failed to keep up the pace. He is happiest when he can detect an error in the daily issue of pamphlets and can confound the lecturer with a statement in line 16 page l2 that disagrees with one on page 22. Fort Benning is just a whistling post on Phi1's march to the head of the Army.

He decided that a military career was preferable to teaching the little brown brother. After being commissioned ,a 2nd Looey he became known as Data Brewer in Mindanao, where he was Deputy District Governor, Tax Collector and Justice of the Peace. The rest of the time was his own. Now outside of his work in the Advanced Class and assisting The Viking put over his training propoganda, Bruce is just resting. ALBERT EGER BRONVN Illzzjor, 1llfcIl.7f7'j' Burfy, Dark ONE of the original members of the Croix de Questionnaire. He has tried vainly to stump the poor instructors, but to date the instructors have batted 1000. l-le is still trying to figure out why is a lensatic compass. SIDNEY GLENN BRONVN Mfzj0z', I1lf1Zl11'7'y judge, Light 'WHATS in :1 name. Fate tried to conceal him by naming him Brown, but when a man can talk like Webster, fight like Lee Christmas, ride like Mazcppa, and is as able and unique as Dawes, how can he conceal himself under such camouflage as Brown? This is the only thing he cannot do, and do darn well. SIMON BOLIVAR BUCKNER, JR. Maj01', Illfllilffjl Buck vos: 141,,UcK SAYSH A living breathing specimen of the nearly extinct genus Kaintucky Kurnel, Suh. Did we say nearly extinct? Our error-tackle him once and you will have made the same error. If the snap shots in the Doughboy do not please you it is your own fault for not looking pleasant when Buck was toting his gun.
