That picture of brass-hats Sammie Sammis and Eddie Lynch in the November issue was a sample of what can be done without a rehearsal; a sample of what we want more of in the way of photographs of classmates in the Service.

(If I've missed anyone, sue me.)
Mox led a quartette which gave out with a lot (but still not enough) of reminiscent close harmony. Prof. Al Foley made the speech of the evening, deftly turning from a hilarious introduction to a serious tribute to the Alumni for their support of the College.
Irish and Alice Flanigan spent a week in Hanover last month following the death of Irish's mother, for whose loss Irish and Alice have the deep sympathy of the class.
