Laurie, son of Mr, and Mrs• Howard Some,s. is presently home on leave. He arrived home Aug. 14 and iv due back at the acadenly Aug. /40 in preparation for open- ing football tournouts which be- gin Sept. 1. Lam'ie. who earned all-confer- ence honors in football and basket- ball as a Highelimber performer in 1961, has shared almost equal mlecess in academy athletics. He started at an end spot on last year's freshman football team, This'fall ss a varsity hopeful Lau- tic - will be trader the watchful eye of head football coach and athlet- ic director OLto Graham, the fa- mous former Cleveland Brown sig- nal-caller of the Nation Pro-Foot- ball League. Of course basketball has always "blond bomber", standing 6-4, post- ed a /6-point-per-game average in 10 contests. The team won six and lost four. Laurie took up track in the spring. He earned a varsity letter in tbe high jump and high hur- dles, but commented that bad wea- ther most of the season kept his times down. He competed in the Washington State track and field meet as a senior at Shelton High in 1961. Laurie had quite an academic "load" to cope with during his first year. He took 22 credit hours each week. Except for about 30 days leave, classes last for 11 months. Calculous, chemistry, English, engineering graphics, seamanship, basic machines and physical edu- cation were on his schedule last year. When he gols back at the end of the month Laurie will un- dertake second-year calculous, his- tory, physics, psychology and naval training. The cadets started on a summer cruise to Europe June 9. Not on a modern naval vessel either, but an old squt'e-z'igger, or bark. 295 feet long with three masts and 22 sails. It was accompanied by two 300 foot Coast Guard Cutters. however. The sailing group made three scheduled stops, in Scotland, Bel- gium and the Canary Islands (off the coast of Africa) and one emer- gency pull into port, at Bermuda. The last stop was made necessary because of the ilhtess of a crew menaber. The academy football players, of which Laurie is one. came back to America early via Coast Guard Cutter in order that they could have leave and be able to report fer football practice on time. The group arrived back at New Lon- don Aug. 11 with lwo months and two day, ef "el)ca sea" duty under their belts. Then Laurie began his trip home by air. After a few missed flights and a few more mixed-up schedules he finally made it home Aug. 14. RETUIINS FROM CRUISE S. P. ,Ditman. son of Mr. and Mrs, Paul W.
