Jahwu MiaBvtBrd Faumier Here is a guy who would rather diddle with mechanisms than date Betty Grable. With more inventions to his credit than Eli Whitney (witness his eight tumbler burgle-proof cash box) this Red Mike amazes everybody with his apparent disinterest for the fair sex. Recognized as something of a loan shark, it is rumored that he has more money than the Treasury Department. Happy Jack has given generously of his time to the Dance Committee, and every formal is a fine product of his efforts. In the world of sports he ventured away from the radiator long enough to pound the leather for one season and trot with the Hill and Vale boys for a couple more. Jack is a confessed career man; we all wonder how long he will be a confessed bachelor. I POLAND, OHIO Poland High School Cross Country, Boxing, Drill Platoon, Dance Committee, Chairman.

Probably the most relaxed, unperturbed individual to tote leath- er on the CG gridiron, Russ never saw fit to change his poker face, direct speech, or wandering mind. He may have climbed a few trees in his time, but he was never endangered by the academic meataxe. Never one to let the other sex get on his nerves, this man ' s man sure stirred up theirs. When a job was to be done, Russ accomplished it with solidness and drive, re- maining always independent and self-contained. Though still in diapers as a new swab, maturity in experience and outlook was not lacking in Russ. His sinister looking left eye and Dead End Kid expression fool no one who know what an easy going and sincere guy one-eye is. Itussell HtBralil Ferrier « r.

Hl Ted JLane GaiBnaBvay It is said that good things come in small packages and that is certainly true of Ted. A little guy (almost had to stand on tiptoe to make the required 5 4 ), he packs a big load of fun and friendliness. A class gathering at the club will nearly always find him in the quorum. He is a true disciple of Bacchus and strongly believes that the sailing team should have several hours of intense training before every meet. Although he has done well for himself, he would be one of the last to rate the name cutter . Any hour of the day or night finds him ready for a discussion of the finer things of life or a hot hand of bridge. T. Lane has a good head on his shoulders and a way of getting along with people where it counts. SILVER SPRING, MD. Bullis School Sailing, Squad Leader 2, Platoon Petty Officer M 26
