It was not until the early part of March, that the idea of having a yearbook was brought to executive attention and the necessary action taken. Naturally, handicapped by such a late staff organization, the publication of the first issue of THE CRUISE has not been easy. Problems arose and continued to spring up incessantly throughout the school year, but these could not have been overcome if it were not for the untiring efforts of the men whose pictures appear on these pages. I wish to take this opportunity to thank the student body for their excellent cooperation, Ensign Thomas Tiernan, our faculty adviser, for his experienced advice, and joe Delaney, my associate editor, who pitched in and helped all the staff departments when assistance was needed. Dave Grover, Business Manager, and his stall? helped to lower the cost of this book by the soliciting of advertising space. To them, I also give my hearti- est thanks. The Art Department, under the direction of Bob Strickland, was responsible for the layout work of the book. They deserve praise for their excellent work on cartoons, pictures, and the numerous posters which helped to put the book across. The athletic events of the year and extra-curricular activities were expertly brought to your consideration by Peter Barry and his competent staff of sports writers. These men showed readers that our teams were of the highest quality. Recognition must be given to Frank Scolpino, our staff photographer and dark room expert, who personally saw to it that only the best pictures were used in your annual. His advice and help were invaluable. Warren Moran supervised the group which was responsible for your individ- ual biographies. They had a difficult job keeping up with the constant transfer of personnel, and they must be given highest Commendation. Last but not least, I wish to express my thanks to the representatives who brought the yearbook to the sections and to John O'Leary, our bookkeeper, for his accurate financial computations. May the future years be successful ones for you and may the year l948 mark the birthdate of the prospective series of yearbooks at the United States Naval School, Academy and College Preparatory. W.
