Bell, a 6-1 senior guard averaged 19.2 points and had 74 steals. One of our newest Cyber Corps participants provided the following explanation. Although I must admit that I've had this explained to me on several occasions, it was during reunion weekends when I may not have been quite lucid. Dear Mr. Lane, Please put me on your address list for the CC updates. My class, 1949B, is returning in late April for our 50th reunion.
Explanation is quite simple.
For a short time during WW2, VMI operated on a three semester per annum system. Thus, '48B entered in Summer 1944, '49A entered in January 1945, and '49B entered in July 1945. This got things back on schedule, and '51 needed no suffix. A couple of points need emphasis. Some '49C grads claim dual brother rat loyalties - to their original class and to their graduation class.
