Summer whites were worn all day by the midshipmen to honor the day. The oldest and ygungest Navy option midshipmen were given the first pieces of the birthday cake at the ceremony during lab: they were Midn. 1fC William Coleman and Midn. 4fC Caroline Keutel. During the ceremonies MAJ Anderson read an offi- cial message from the CNO, ADM'Hayward, on the importance ofa strong naval power. Also, he recounted the story of the ever-growing close relationship be- tween the Navy and the Marine Corps. Furthermore, he exhorted the midshipmen to continue the highest traditions of excellence for which the Navy has been famous in the past. it -4 F' 'i 4. , Qs! 'Ev F, ,, ff' .ff ff 'sf' 'ff , T . .

FIELD MEET Field Day is certainly a lab period which all mid- shipmen enjoy. For those who are athletically inclined, such events as the pushfsit up relay, the fireman's carry, and the Bear Machine have special appeal. On the other hand, those midshipmen who would rather act as spectators than participants especially enjoy the Dizzy-Izzy and the Chariot Race. The competition is fierce but friendly, this year's two winners were Bravo Company ffall semesterl and Charlie Company Qspringl. ,IRC ti ii, N r-f 'gi 1 .-:QM ,,:'i'c 'Wm g C 1, fl-P'-..-a-X qqcv-4-4...gnr we .' 4gqu 'l 4' sifwwes ' . c'
