MICHAEL EDWARD LUDLOW Warren, Michigan A-3 Mike manages to enioy the finer things in life: Mozart, night shirts, and Limburger cheese. As Culture Club President, he is one of the few cadets who knows that Rirnsky-Korsakov isn't a vodka, Somehow he maintains a 3.0 average in extracurricular activities, a 2.8 in Social Science, and still finds time to help out his classmates. His keen interest and his determi- nation will no doubt make him an asset to the Army.

MICHAEL KOMMERS LYNETT Wausau, Wisconsin F-4 Entering West Point from Wassau, Wisconsin, Mike brought with him a sharp wit, an undying love for sports, and a sincerity found in few individuals. Mike's quiet, good-natured, conscien- tious approach to life have made him a deep, dedicated friend to all. These attributes have successfully guided Mike over the obstacles that he has encountered over the past four years and will continue to guide him to the top in life. 2-52 Eg? catholic Acolyte 4, 3, 2, 1 , Newman Forum 3 2 l- ll. 1 lil. i ' ' ' 1:1 .1:l:I 'llkgl 5 Bowling Club 2, 1. RONALD LAURANCE LUCAS Frostburg, Maryland B-2 Ron came to West Point from the Army and has since dedicated himself to a career in the service. A fine person and hard worker who helped many a classmate wander through the mysterious maze of EL 301, he has always been willing to help anyone in need of assistance. This man has been a friend to all.

It didn't take Dick long to demonstrate his athletic prowess on the fields of friendly strife, bringing recognition to himself and to the Academy. But even more important was the true friendship Luck gave those around him. A goat from the start, Dick never excelled in academics, however this never affected his tremendous spirit As an officer, this Ohioan can't miss, for men with his character and ability are hard to find.

Fairfax, Virginia G-2 George found model building in the winter and catching rays in the spring more to his liking than academics, and although his room- mates found it hard to believe that a person could spend so little time at studying, he was often on the Dean's List. An Army brat and the class son of '47, George made up his mind to go Armor long ago. His ability to produce the solution to any task assigned to him will be a great benefit to him in his career.

ATTENTION ALL MIDSHIPMEN Surrender! Your situation is hopeless! You support a losing cause, your foot- ball team. You couldn't even beat B. C. Your losses are many. Your vic- tories few. We recognize that you are determined enemy. Your l point romp over a tough Pitt team is testimony enough. But we wish to spare you from a humiliating defeat in Philadel- phia tomorrow. Your only chance is to take this leaflet, and with your hands over your head, surrender your- self to the first cadet you see by shouting these words: Beat Navy, Sir. Otherwise the Army team will show no mercy. lf you refuse, we can then only offer you this good advice: HANG IT UP NAVY!!! THE CORPS ' JOHN MICHAEL LUCHAK Poulsbo, Washington H-4 Chak, alias ranger, fulfilled his life-long dream when he arrived at the Point in July of '65. Chak was one of the grayest new cadets in the history of the Corps until about the second week of Beast. A year at the University of Washington put him in good standing for a year of West Point academics. Chak was always a true friend. His inherent knack for words promises him a bright future in the Army. Military Affairs Club 4, 3, 2, 'lp French Club 3, Fine Arts Forum 3, 2, lg Rocket 0 0 Society 4, 3. ROBERT TUCKER LYNCH Ridgely, Maryland A-2 From Maryland came a young man with an uncanny ability to make friends. Bob, supported by Ginger and a certain puppy, fought off the tactical department's best to remain the same easy-going guy throughout his four years. Never one to let the system stand in the way of a good time, the lunch's quick sense of humor and winning smile, combined with a lot of common sense, will bring him all the success he deserves.

MICHAEL WILLIAM MAASBERG Midland, Michigan F-3 A brown boy's best friend and lover of fine climbing ropes, the Maas will be long remem- bered for those lost weekends in the city and his appleiack. Between writing his best seller, Bars I Have Known, and the eternal bridge game or handball game, he still found a few minutes to study organic and made getting on the Dean's List look easy. A friend you can count on, Mike should take the Army and Happy Hour by storm.

Who can forget our last Cow tac's conference-when Mahlee' tried his hardest to convince the Tac that there are times when iudgement, rather than the uniform flag, should be relied upon? Ron will undoubtedly carry through his career and life the reputation he gained here as a man to be counted upon, especially when the chips are down.

DOUGLAS WARREN MARSHALL Arlington, Virginia F--3 Among the few things that Doug hated were women, not winning at intramurals, losing at intramurals, and women. He did his best to prevent the company from being anything but first in Banker's Trophy points, and his caustic sense of humor prevented anyone from feeling bad when we weren't. Despite his animosity towards the fairer sex, Doug did have one love- trustworthy, loyal, friendly, courteous, kind, brave D. None of us will ever forget Doug and some of us will really miss him.
