,M 1,1 r :ff PORRECA, Jossru 94 Colgate Street Jos St. Aug-ustine's School Joe is the latest addition to our number. We are just becoming acquainted but, if we may judge by first impressions, we shall all be glad he joined our class. Joe seems convinced that it is always best to wait and speak only when spoken to. We think he is a true type of dignified senior and wonder will the dignity wear away when we are better acquainted. We wish you suc- cess, Joe! PowsRs,Jos1:PH E. 154 Selye Terrace JOE Carthage Public School Joe is the proud possessor of the deepest base voice in the school. When his Stentor- ian shout of hash rings out in the cafe- teria there is a pronounced agitation be- hind the sandwich trays. Coupled with ex- ceptional erudition for his years, this should make Joe an ideal pedagogue. We hope to hear your voice again, Joe. More Powers to you. QUIGLEY, D. BERNARD 130 Jefferson Avenue HBERNIEU Immaculate Conception School There is an old saying that wise men listen while fools talk. According to this, Bernie may prove a Solomon in our midst. Do not think that he never converses with his classmates. We always know when he is around and we feel that his presence as- sures us of his support. No senior is more anxious to make all class activities a cred- it. Keep on listening, Bernieg by your si- lence you have taught us an invaluable lesson. RITZENTHALER, ROBERT A. 692 Maple Street URITZU Holy Family School The four years which Bob has spent at Aquinas have not been wasted years. He is literally bubbling over with ambition and it is an unheard of thing for him to come to school with lessons unprepared. Bob has proved a life-saver to many of us seniors by his willingness to share with us the in- formation which he acquired by burning the midnight oil. Good luck, Bob, and do not rest until you have climbed to the top of the ladder of fame. oi 6 .

it 19 QQ i 'Q Q 9 G W NORTON, FRANCIS A. 230 West Elm St., East Rochester FRAN East Rochester Public School East Rochester's gift to Aquinas--and what a gift! If East Rochester la group of houses clustered about a general store and post-ofiicej can be judged by our Fran- cis, Rochester has a keen rival so far as pep is concerned. Our country cousin has a part in just about everything that takes place in the school. Moreover, he is Father Brien's chief aide in the American History class. Aside from his numerous activities, Francis is the official organ for the release of all new jokes. It is almost impossible for anyone to endeavor to tell him a new joke. He is always one jump ahead. Launching out into life with this pep and sense of hu- mor, Frank cannot but succeed. O'BRIEN, EMMET, N. 437 Selye Terrace EMMET Holy Rosary School I weep for Adonais .... Whenever you hear that phrase within the school you know that Emmet is around. During class he can think up more questions, arguments and jokes than any other student under normal conditions.-Ask Father Grady. Nevertheless his fine scholastic record proves that he does not spend his time ex- clusively on humorous remarks and ideas. A fellow who can smile himself to suc- ess -that's Emmet. PENNY, FRANCIS H. 63 Bronson Avenue FRANK Nazareth Hall Here is Frank, a young Lochinvar, born far out in the Corn Country. Frank's strong point is fiivver, but it is said that his hankering to choose Rolls Royces has gradually given way to a zeal to pursue the even more elusive ions and chromo- somes with the ultimate purpose of laying low the cohorts of bacilli and all their brothers and cousins. Keep the old spirit, Frank, and the Demons of disease will find in you another Pasteur and a formidable enemy. PERO, CHESTER A. 27 Rialto Street PETE Om' Lady of Perpetual Help School Lo! the ideal senior! He is both unas- suming and dignified. Around the school, Pete is quiet, especially in English class. Outside, he assumes that easy-going, care- free mood which has made him a favorite with us all. Interested in all sports, Pete can hold his own in any of them. He is at his best in the bowling alleys, where he endeavors to imitate the immortal Jimmy Smith. Go to it, Pete! i r' M., R, A 0'-ix QV . W A r . Q a 279' E251 'Q iii.

owl rw it we 'liilililliieltft' '-iwlllil Witt ROCK, HAROLD F. 400 Durnan Street ROCK Saint A7IdP'61U'S School Harold has been one of the big men around the school for the past four years, physically and mentally. As his noble brow suggests, he is a veritable storehouse of knowledge and within him the spring of mirth and wit are ever bubbling. Surely is Rock a dispeller of gloom. With much re- luctance we say good-bv, Harold, for we all realize we are parting with a jovial companion and a true friend. RODMAN, JOHN P. Sliutt Road, Brighton, N. Y. JOHN St. B0'7llfflI'G School A visitor recently inquired who was the handsome chap standing in the corridor. We assured him that there are many hand- some chaps in the school but when he ex- plained, I refer to the youth with the inimitable smile, we all knew he meant Rodman. John is one of the most capable members of our class, a willing worker, a fiend with a typewriter. He started out as a commercial student and is now con- cluding his academic work. Needless to say, he has been a success at both. John is the type of student that Aquinas is proud to have on her graduate roll. SCHNEPP, EMMET1' J. 325 Lake View Pk. EMMETT Holy Rosary School Student extraordinary! gentleman and pianist! This is Emmett epitomized. He burns not the midnight oilg he needs it not. He has an uncanny outlook on life which should greatly attribute to his success. If Emmett's class marks are a criterion of his life work, within forty years we should hear of Chief Justice Schneppf' To us he will always be Emmett. SCHWARTZ, ARTHUR W. 2859 St. Paul Blvd. UARTH St. Fl'fl'7lC1'S XcL'vie1 s School Though Father Grady does not appre- ciate the fact, in Art we have a famous English student. Another point in his favor is that he has not once been absent from Lenten Mass. Art is very modest and con- servative and many times he has saved the day for us by his level headed way of sizing up a situation. When we part, we shall miss your friendly helpfulness, Art.
