The Class of 1974

Page 32 text:

LEON BRYANT ABERNATHY Southern Alexandria Alexandria. Virginia Civil Engineering — Air Force i Club; BOMB Staff; ASCE; Karate Club; Young Republic Pool Hall Club. Leon came to VMI as a gung-ho zoomie and left as a grubby, special student. He existed through four years of VMI and academically slithered through the Civil Engineering Department. His priorities have slowly dwindled until this year. Now his major concerns are girls, sleeping, eating, and academics, in that order. Known for his fast but careful driv- ing while drinking. Leon will always be a temptation to the men in blue. Leon, although sometimes out in space will always be remembered as an understanding, helpful and rea- sonable Brother Rat who leaves the Institute with an attitude that can only be characterized as true apathy. Class of ' 71: Dave Lawerence Class of 77: Jim Lewis VINCENT ARTHUR ABRUZZESE Moose Deptford, New Jersey Biology — Air Force President of Cadet Program Board; Concessions Committee; Cpl; Sgt; 2nd Lt; Track Team (Rat Year); A.F.R.O.T.C.; Schol- arship; Cadet Activities Committee; DAS. She should have died hereafter. There would have been a time for such a word. Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this pretty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time. And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life ' s but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. Wm. Shakespeare ALLYN JOHN AKSOMITAS BigAJ Wethersfield, Conn. English — Air Force Academic Stars; Dean ' s List; Wrestling Team Captain; Vice Chairman College Republican Club; Chairman College Republican Club; USAF ROTC Scholarship; Scuba Club Treasurer; Distinguished AFROTC Cadet; English Tutor; Sounding Brass; English Society; Film Committee; Cadet Lt B.D.S.; High Rent District. Once upon a time, an Air Force Academy reject came down from the north to gorge himself in southern hospitality. With the high hopes of attaining his Bull Shipping degree in Math, our heroic character plunged into the Maelstrom and emerged an English Major. The reincarnate found his new life to have meaning, revealing to him the conquests which beg- ged to be conquered. As Ulysses was inspired by Penelope, Al reached his Nirvana by the divine inspiration of the E.B. Blond. Hard work is not easy and Al spent many a late night in the books, later to distinguish himself academically. Al ' s whims for sports cars, slow gin, and all out good fun made him the heartbreaker of countless numbers of chickadees. Florida, Cape Cod, and Ok. have all seen the nose in action. Seven Tom Collins and fourteen beers later, we find our hero sleep- ing among the ants with dreams of the Grogery. It ' s been fun BR and we wish you every success in Graduate School. Your natural charisma will lead you to fame. Class of ' 71: Buddy Ramey Class of ' 77: John Creedon Classof ' 77:SidAlvis
