However there were several names such as Tom Hoban, Ed Connors. Phil Grime , H enry Dexter, Bill O'Connor, D a n Hobb , etc. that I missed . I often remember them a nd wonder what ha ppened to them. Then there was Cha rley Dugan too. It was reall y a treat to visit the campus last month and see a ll the old prof again, although there were one or two faces tha t I missed . I've been wondering what ha ppened to Brother Fra nk O'Reill y a nd F ather L eimkuhler. It eemed almost like old times to see Brother Paul holding forth at the same old stand in the Arcade, and to get to talk things over again "IN SERVICE'' 1928 Major John E. Carroll 1930 Capt. Wm. P.

Southall reminiscing about the times when I proved to be the bane of more than one profe sor's life. I was very pleasantly urprised to read in D ayton papers that Pa ul Zehrung a nd ·walt H aberer were wearing silver oak leave now. Why, it ha rdl y seems pos ible tha t it was only two years ago tha t they were First Lieu- tena nt . And M a rty Hillenbra nd, little did I think tha t the boy who knew all the answers almost a soon as the prof could a k the questions would be one day supplying a ll the a nswers in the American diploma tic ervice. Come to think of it, though, that would be right down his alley. I'm hoping for an appointment to the Postal Officers' Candidate School , but ince, as some one has a ptly rema rked, "there' many a slip ' twixt the cup a nd the lip", I'm not holding my breath until I get it.
