Midshipmen --

With the move to incorporate the Midshipmen officers and other service units on the Business School campus into the HBSA a preliminary election of officers to represent the companies resulted in the selection of two men from each company.

After a heated session, with politics and parliamentary law being put on the testing block and one set of tie ballots, William W. Brown and Robert Long emerged as the representatives of Company II.

Brown, a graduate of Washington and Lee of the '39 class, majored in English. Active scholastically and sports wise, he was captain of the football team and was chosen all conference guard. He was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Omicron Delta Kappa, Phi Eta Sigma and Sigma Alpha Eta.

A native of Toledo, Ohio, he still looks to that city with loving eyes, and especially to his wife who is still living there.

After graduation Brown went to work as a sales engineer for the Landen Corporation.

Co-candidate with Brown is Robert Long, a product of Wabash College, of Crawfordsville, Indiana. A Liberal Arts student, Long is an Economics major.

Long found time to mix sports and studies being active as a member of both the Varsity basketball and baseball teams. His other school activities included membership in Phi Beta Kappa, Pi Delta Epsilon, Phi Gamma Delta and the Sphinx Club, an upperclassmen's Honorary Society.

Graduating in '39 Long went to work for the Harris Trust and Savings Bank. He is as yet single and claims Evanston Illinois as his home town.
