For his devotion to more than forty years of teach

ing, the 1962 Taps is dedicated to the Academy's hard working and always-willing Superintendent, Colonel C. R. Stribling.

Since becoming Superintendent in 1933, he has or ganized and supervised the changes necessary to

make the school what it is today. Besides running the Academy, the Colonel teaches

a senior English class. His door is always open to any

body seeking aid. His heart is always with the corps, whether they be fighting for the gold football or

struggling to pass finals. In addition to his activities on campus,

Colonel

Stribling is active in civic activities both on the local and notional scene. Here in Mexico he is President of

the Audrain Hospital Board of Trustees, Vice-Chair man of the Mexico Recreation Committee, and on the

Board of Trustees of the Mexico Community Chest. He serves the nation as President of the Independent Schools Association of the Central States.

Since coming to the Academy in 1951, Mrs. Maude

Shotwell has captured the hearts and admiration of

the whole corps.

Her loyalty to her profession of

nursing makes her unhappy unless she is always help

ing others.

She started her profession in the Hannibal, Mis

souri, Hospital. When the war broke out she joined the

Nurse Corps. After the war she returned to Missouri

and served at the Pike County and Audrain County Hospitals. From the Audrain she came to the Academy

On her free time, during furloughs, and summei

vacations she works in the Pike County and Audrair County Hospitals. She

is always on hand to aic

neighboring schools administer vaccinations and polic

shots to their students.

Her absence this Winter was greatly felt. With hei

return, returned the assurance to the corps that thei

chills and ills would again be treated by Mrs. Shot

well, a woman whose only concern is helping others

The Commandant And His Assistant

Major Charles Stribling is probably one of the busiest men on campus. In addition to his duties as Commandant, he is an English Instructor, "Eagle” and “Taps” advisor, Public Relations Man, Vice-Presi dent and Executive Officer of the Academy. Major Stribling is also engaged in many civic activities here in Mexico. As he was once a cadet at the Academy, he understands the problems the cadets face each

day. Filling the positions of Assistant Commandant and Assistant P.M.S., Captain John Starke also has a busy schedule. Setting the example with neat personal appearance and excellent posture, Captain Starke insisted on good military bearing from the cadets. He spent many hours this year instructing the seniors in the proper teaching technique.

Major Stribling inspects a press.

Administration Lt. Colonel Elmer Jackson, Director of Admissions, always has a smile and a friendly word for everyone. Colonel Jackson has been at M.M.A. since 1930, when he joined the faculty as Director of Music. Much of his time is spent away from the campus on recruiting trips. I

“J” The butt of many jokes on campus, Jay was never without a sharp retort. Hard work and perseverance paid nff in his senior year and

more to improve the musical status of the school than has Pablo. Also verily gifted with great leadership potential, he took no greater pleasure than leading the school's marching

JOEL CHRISTOPHER BLOCK

“Happy Tooth” Quite popular with the girls, Joe was the envy of cadets not so gifted with good looks and personality. Puzzling everyone, Joe seem

ed to always appear on the honor roll, in spite of his frequent permits. Only one answer was available; this was a boy truly gifted with the power to use his great intellect.

LAURIE BAKER CRAIG

‘Skippie” Laurie was the perfect example of that all too

rare type of person, the true scholar. No sac rifice was too great to make for the sake of his education. For this

reason,

led the

DALE ADAM DYE 11

“Dad” Always impeccable in his appearance, he showed us that a cadet can even look good in fatigues. Whether playing Adjutant or doing the twist, he was always ready to shake the campus with a new and different slant on something. Good natured and friendly, he

was always ready to sacrifice to help a friend, or to entertain a roomful of friends with his antics and discourses.

ROBERT ELLIS ELLERMAN

“Tank” The “Tank” had a personality and sense of generosity to match his girth. Constantly giv ing aid to his classmates, he learned to re ceive in his Senior year recognition for his devotion to duty and efficiency. Never failing

to come to the aid of someone who needed a duty change, he seemed to be constantly

on duty and enjoying it.

FRANK EDWARD EMBERTON

“Em” All athlete, Frank could be relied on to try

every varsity sport the school offered and to revel in it. Constantly striving to improve his standing athletically, he payed less attention to his progress in the barracks, where he was in and out of trouble. Always a pleasure to watch, if he weren't wearing spiked shoes, he was clowning.

DONALD WAYNE ENTRIKIN

“Popcorn” A smile or a reprimand, these were Don's pre requisites. At any time one could find him trying to improve himself or those in his com mand. Taking great pride in his appearance, he never lorded over people, but had that great quality of commanding without ruling. Always respected and greatly liked by those

under him, was Don.

DAVID JAMES ESTES

“Dave” Everyone remembers the football season when

Dave

was playing, for he had a habit of

waiting till the last moment of an important game to come through with that famous and all too frequent, for opposing teams, long,

long gain. He seemed most at home in his right halfback position crouched for action.

He amazed most with his drive and dexterity, for his weight was usually under that of the big linemen he constantly drove through.

THOMAS EDWARD FINCH

“Tom” If you didn’t like Tom, you were just plain antisocial. He could always be found in the 1

midst of a laughing group of cadets, doing his bit to make the situation, whatever it may have been, all the funnier. Well gifted with a sly sense of humor, Tom was known for turning the tables on those who would tease

him.

RICHARD GRANT GILDEHAUS

“Rick” Whether carousing with his roommate or join ing in a boisterous song of one kind or another, Rick could always be seen in the middle of any crowd. Abounding with loyalty, he loved nothing better than to hold member ship in any organization. And where you found an organization, you usually found Rick in the lead, or at least working hard to attain it.

“Ky” “Ky" was known to come up with the oddest, and sometimes the most hairbrained, schemes

that anyone ever tried. And he never failed to try them. This very quality gained him the

respect and admiration of everyone, for no matter what the odds, he always tried. If you wanted something circulated around campus, you came to Ky, for whatever he came up with was bound to catch on.

HAROLD EDWIN HUGHES

“Howie” It was a standing rule with Howie’s classmates

never to laugh unless Howie made the first funny. He was truly the perpetual comedian. Besides being blessed with this great sense of

humor, Howie had a great deal of talent in other respects. Friendly enough to listen to your problems, if he couldn’t help you he would make a joke and make you feel better.

JOHN CHARLES IVERSON

“J. C.” Constantly busy creating something new or different was John. He was the only cadet on campus who could take a Freshman outing in his column and make it sound like the fate of the world hung on its out-come. John was gifted with a subtle sense of humor that few

understood. Often inappropriate, his jokes, if understood, were among the funniest on campus.

“Lynn” Commonly seen peeking out from behind a big bass viol, Lynn enjoyed his music making as much as anyone on campus. If a new musi cal group was formed on campus, you could count on hearing his rythmical thumping somewhere in the background. The fate of many town girls hung on his whims, and what

to do on general leaves was the question he loved most to find an answer to.

“Wee Willie” Willie was the shining example on campus of

“Rushville Flash” Leadership was Tom’s main goal, and through hard work and many obstacles, he attained his commission in his Senior year. He showed us that the little man with the will to win will

one's problems.

“Doc” The “Doc" never said much, but when it was said it was bound to be good. He won the

friendship of his classmates by being the type of person you felt you could always talk to and be heard with an understanding ear.

WILLIAM BOYD LEDSOME

“Pizzani” The man with the wailing sax is the only pos

sible way to describe Bill. He took no greater

pleasure than dragging out his sax and work

ing for hours to entertain

group of his

friends with some really brilliant playing, spiced by bits of Italian folk lore. If you could

name the piece, Bill could play it, and with the greatest of pleasure.

“Tiger” One could always find the “Tiger” engrossed

the mats.

WILLIAM LAFAYETTE MILNE

“Mouse” If you were ever looking for the “Mouse,”

all you had to do was follow the sound of the twisting music. He greatly enjoyed living, only if it didn't enterfere with his duties. Every Monday everyone watched him for he was bound to come up with something new. A quick wit and a sharp intellect allowed him to draw much from his studies and he never

failed to show it on examinations.

“Edna” If you could distinguish Ed under his M.P.

paraphernalia, you could always find a friendly smile and a warm heart. He was the example of a really true friend. No sacrifice was too great; if it would help, he would do it. Always truthful and devoted to his duties, he would always shoulder with a smile theresponsibility for his actions and the actions of those in his command.

“Elf” One could always find George trying to con vince his barracks-mates that just because his

ears were pointed he was not and never would be an Elf. He could be counted on to come up with a joke if one was needed, and many times when one was not needed. He often joked too much but never let his jokes stand in the way of his grades, which he con stantly strove to improve.

GERRY DIETBERT OSTERLAND

“Gerry” Never at home unless he was wearing spiked shoes of one kind or another, Gerry demon strated to all the personality of an athlete.

He many times pulled a close game out of the fire for the Academy by coming through when the chips were down. Always a leader,

he showed us that a person need not be gifted in all fields to create a smooth-running team. Whether in his company or captaining one of Major Bailey’s teams, he could be counted on

never to let up.

if Jim was there it somehow pertained to his

one great love, Farming.

JOHN ALFRED SANDER

“J. Alfred Baby” Often the weightiest of decisions rested with John, but not once did he fail to find a fav

orable solution. He hefted the bulk of every cadet’s problems and bore them on shoulders already proven on every athletic field. Sac

rifice was the key word in John's career and sacrifice he did. Displayed through the con

fusion of his tough job, everyone knew that the epitome of Loyalty, Integrity and Honor

rested under those diamonds.

on his popping up somewhere in the front rank.

were enough.

was also a trait of his academically, where he spent long sleepless nights studying for one test or another. Grinning off the grogginess the next day, Kurt would express his motto, "Results Count."

“Hoosier” Some of the strangest habits and one of the best personalities known to anyone accom panied the Hoosier when he came to the

None could figure out why he always returned smiling, until someone noticed that the grin began after he climbed out of a big green Buick. The Hoosier seemed gifted with fins and gills, because he was known to set record after record in the Acad emy pool. “He won’t mind if we use his lake"

his record to do it.

Sergeant Walter Wheeler accepts Major Lorenzo Luckie’s transfer papers in September prior to the opening of school.

Coming to us from Supply Corps job in Orleans, France, Major Luckie has been one of the most ener getic and devoted PMS's we have had the pleasure to

have at the Academy in a long time.

Graduated from the University of Georgia after

JI /

attending the Tennessee Military Institute, he has spent nineteen years in the service of his country. He came to the Academy with a sincere desire to

help the school and continue this as a top military

school. From all accounts, he has succeeded.

i Fitting into his job easily, Major Luckie watches drill at the beginning of school along with Ser geant Robert Moon, another new edition to the military staff

Military Department

Members of the military department staff are, from left, Major Lorenzo Luckie, SFC Robert Moon, MSgt. Theodore Ziegler, SSgt. Lewis A

Dermott and Capt. John B. Starke.

Without their unreserved effort, G.l. might have been a flop. These officers and enlisted men strove con stantly to prepare us for not only Inspection but also a good military background. Major Luckie put un precedented emphasis on tactics. Sgt. McDermott took over the Fusileers after Sgt. Wheeler had left anc led them to a second in the State Drill Meet. Sgts. Ziegler and Moon were noted mainly for their affabk

and kindly attitudes.

Honor Guard Turns Out

November 7 saw the first inspection of the Academy by the regular Army in the person of Colonel Stewart Alley, deputy commander of the XI Corps. He was met by the Honor Guard and conducted on a tour of the campus by Colonel C. R. Stribling, Superintendent. One of his many comments was that the posture and esprit de corps had improved over last year.

Dads’ Day saw Cadet David Patterson receive the plaque for the best-drilled old cadet. David won over heavy odds, in that the en tire section of Academy old boys participated. Colonel Stribling is shown congratulating Pat terson as he hands him his award.

Captain Laurie Craig presi Recognition.

The Soldiers' Bar, given for military courtesy, bear ing, neatness, attitude, and performance, is one of the most coveted awards a cadet can receive. Each month ten deserving cadets from the four Military Science and Tactics classes are selected to receive this award by a board consisting of the Com mandant’s office and the Battalion Commander.

Fusileers present Sgt. Walter Wheeler with a trophy for his services as advisor to the crack drill squad. Fusileers perform at half-time of St. Louis Cardinals foobtall game December 17.

Fusileers The Fusileers, MMA's crack drill squad, has marched in the Presi dential inauguration, that of the Governor of Missouri; were state drill champs for two years in a row, and this year came in second in the state 'drill meet. One of the main factors against their winning the title was the fact that they changed leadership in the middle of the year when Sgt. Wheeler went to Viet Nam. Major John Sander, cadet leader of the team, said “A very fine group of men."

Capt. John Starke has the knack of finding dirt in the most unlikely places. One of his jobs is to assist in the Saturday inspection of the quarters. Here he is shown looking for dust during a pre-Government In spection inspection.

Government Inspection

Bleary-eyed, cadets awoke to the bugle's tune an hour early on the morning of the 13th of April in preparation

for the grueling day ahead. The inspectors arrived in the early hours of daylight and

proceeded to a conference with the Superintendent and PMS. Then they made an inspection of the barracks, cadets'

personal appearance and rifles, and the Academy's faci

lities, then on to be the reviewing party at a special re view. The morning was terminated by a display of dis mounted drill by the Corps.

Major Francis Ruth confers with Colonel Strib ling, and Major Luckie prior to the inspection.

The inspectors lauded the

Honor Guard for their sharp ness, cadets for the cleanliness

of their rooms, bearing, and

grasp of tactics. Too, they were impressed by

our facilities for instruction of tactical training.

Only two fields of endeavor were commented unfavorably

upon—the answering of ques

The MMA wrestling team ended it regula

tion season with an outstanding 7 and 0 record. With a well balanced team, the Colonels had

one of their best seasons ever. "We had a young team and can look forward to many more fine seasons,” reported Coach Joe Bailey.

During the first dual match of the season, Herb Laird picks up riding time on his Kemper opponent for a victory.

The highlight of the season came when the

matmen placed fifth in the District Tournament

out of ten schools participating. The meet was held at Wilham Jewell College. Larry Pifer, 165 lbs; Bill Keaton, 103; and Phil Baum, 112, won

places in the meet and thus were eligible for

the State Tournament held in St. Louis. In the State Military School meet the MMA

grapplers again proved themselves. The team as a whole placed second, receiving ten places in all. Individual champions were: Keaton 103;

Brogan, 154; Pifer, 165; and Powell, heavy

weight.

"We

had

only to

win one of the

matches we lost to take the championship,” stated Major Bailey.

At the District Wrestling Meet, Pifer takes the advantage over his opponent to get a second place.
