Summary
editDescriptionWaldron as USNA midshipman (1924).jpg |
English: John Charles Waldron as a midshipman in the United States Naval Academy. His description in the "Lucky Bag" reads: STRANGER, pause! Look at this strange specimen. Reading from the outboard halliard, we make out the ambitious student, the aspiring athoolete, the snake par excellence and, last but not least, the sea-going cowpuncher. Here is a man who is lord of fluttering hearts, scattered from hither to yon, wherever he has travelled. And yet, he wouldn't let Helen herself in his room after study call has busted. The "Busy Day" sign is always in evidence on " Jawn's" door during boning hours. Lady Luck has given him a cold shoulder as far as athletics are concerned. "Jawn" comes across with the desire and the ability, but the aforementioned damsel steps in with the sand and rocks. Having taken a shot at everything, he has at last decided to choose the sport which will keep him in the hospital the shortest time, sort of a cross between boxing and wrestling. His ambition is laudable, since the doctors need a rest. Class Wrestling (2); Class Boxing (3). |
