Johnny is production manage'
of Thespians (he calls it chief
Etooge ‘ to -Sock Kennedy), a job
which requires plenty of hard
work and late hours, and Li-job
which is most strenuous especial
ly during fencing season.
But he's managed to come out
all light, even though so over
worked. Sock Kennedy says he
couldn't do 'without him, while Doc
Krutter, fencing coach, rates him
as one of the best sabremen he has
tier had under his tutelage
