Guy James Hutchins

Massena, New York

Jim came to the Academy from Massena, N. Y. Although coming directly from high school, he had the groundwork laid out for the activities he was to pursue here. While in high school he was editor of his school paper, a strong competitor in wrestling, and a member of the choir. He has followed these varied interests here by writing for the Splinter, wrestling on the battalion and plebe teams, and singing in the chapel choir and the glee club. Jim's ability to solve problems has helped him to excel in mathematics and engineering. For this many of his friends are truly grateful because he was always glad to explain a solution. Though Jim is a fighter he has a friendly and easy going nature that has won him much respect and friendship.
