Starting slowly as Best New Cadet, with no hair, impeccable appearance, and Prussian bearing, he gradually became better adiusted to his surroundings ris- ing ultimately to the magical heights of Century Club, with long hair, unshined brass and long files to be closed. His plans for 1974 remain indefinite. Scuba Club 3, lg Class Au- O X 0 tomobile Committee.

MICHAEL DAVID MATTHEWS Houston, Texas F-4 The decline and fall of the Holland Tunnel can be attributed to the lady's man of F-troop, Snakebite. A different date every weekend, Mike covered the surrounding area by his iunior year. At this time, he took a well deserved rest, sort of an involuntary retirement for four months! In his stylish Texan manner, he snows more girls, is the best friend of more guys, exemplifies a fine gentleman and Cadet, and undoubtedly will find success in his endeavors.

Soiling his feet and coming North to West Point, Bill displayed his tremen- dous abilities in all fields. A gargantuan appe- tite for French fries made Bill one of the heavier members of the 150 Ib. football team. Bill will without a doubt go far in whatever he does in the future. 150 lb.

ROBERT BRUCE MCBANE Fort Beniamin Harrison, Indiana E-2 The man for all seasons, Bruce is truly a unique individual. Rooming with Bruce for four days was more of an experience than four years at the Academy. Likeable in every way, the only people Bruce didn't get along with were the barbers. His many and varied hobbies- women-kept him busy when he wasn't staying up late starting a term paper which was due the next day. Bruce's constant success in aca- demics left him much time to enioy his brown boy. He will always be remembered for his carefree nature, the soft talk that was always ready for his female companions, and his sur- fer magazines. Bruce will undoubtedly go through life as he did West Point, hanging ten. Fourth Class Glee Club 4, Ski Club 2, I, Spanish Club lp French Club I, Hop Man- ager 2, ly Scoutmaster's Council 4. LEROY ARNOLD MAXFIELD, JR. Burlington, Wisconsin F-2 With an unbelievable character packed in an unbelievable body Max brought his amazing imagination, sense of humor, and artistic talents to the F-2 Zoo. He always had a way with cars and athletics. He never turned down a helping hand. Max loves the little things, un- seen by most, and sees the lighter side of bigger things. Some day, his fascinating mind will outdo his modesty. After all, who can forget Batman, the screaming eagle, or iust plain Max? , im. , Howitzer Staff 2, 1. Q- 0 EDWARD WILLIAM MAYER Baltimore, Maryland A-2 With his head literally in the stars and his feet on the ground, Ed brought much more than average ability with him into these gray walls. Following in the footsteps of his brother, Ed followed no one in the attributes which make a superior cadet. His sincere friendship and his earnest dedication won for him honors and friends in abundant quantities. Infantry blue even glowed in his eyes. His glories as a cadet can only be dimmed by his accomplishments as an officer.

Whenever there was a need for an organizing, energetic hand in the company, he was sure to be the one called upon. While his roommates curled under the Brown Boy, he would still be working on one of his numerous activities ranging from Scuba to SCUSA.

Although no friend of the Engineering and Science departments, he knew more Social Science than most P's. An avid reader, this man's collection rivaled the library's. Above all this, Rich was one of the finest and most loyal friends any person could have. He never refused to help someone, even though it came as a great sacrifice of his own time.

Oldest and ablest of Penward's Menagerie, the Tomai spent many a late night eyeing the stars long after the rest of us had given up. As the other great football manager in the gators, Tom was a con- sistently hard worker for the little rabble. Known for his desire and endurance, we know he will truly tear 'em up in the Army.

Both the Pistol Team and the Pistol Club were recipients of his good humor and hard work for four years. His love of the great outdoors should serve him well as an Infantry Officer.

ROBERT JAMES MCCLOY Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania E-3 Bobafonic Bob, our blue eyed soul brother, has had great success in bringing Philadelphia down to its proper perspective. His achievements here can best be described as the negative re- ciprocal of his roommate's. His thirst for knowl- edge is not surpassed by that forbidden thirst which often overcame him during his career. We are assured that the training Bob has re- ceived here will help him gain a reputation at officers' clubs throughout the world.-Montana Tennis 4. srl JAMES LAVVRENCET MCCULLOUGH Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania s Jimmy had a plebe year like walked off the area once.
