JOHN H. BAKER B.S.in Biology, R.F.D. No. 1, Linden, Pa. Jack was well known on cam- pus and always cheerfully greeted his fellow students. In moments of leisure he could be seen reading the world-almanac which he used as a source book to quote facts and records verbatim. By many he was con- sidered the answer man of first McCaffrey. Jack, a varsity track and cross- country man, was interested in all athletics and participated in most intra- mural sports. He had a strong liking for bright colors in clothes and was often seen wearing odd hats which could not be duplicated. An honor stu- dent, and outstanding as ein Deutsche student, Jack planned to continue his studies at Georgetown Medical School. 63 GENO C. BARONI A.B. in Philosophy, Box 171, Acosta, Pa. Geno showed much interest in promoting sports during his stay at the Mount, both in the College and in the Seminary, where he studied for the holy priesthood under the Bishop of Altoona. Geno served the Mount well as a sports-writer for the Moun- tain Echo, manager of intramural sports, projector operator for the movie committee, and in numerous other clubs and activities. He was one of the most active Mountaineers in our class. Upon graduating he planned to continue his studies in the Mount Seminary. ANTONIO RAMOS BARROSO B.S. in Chemistry, 16 Betances St., Bayamon, Puerto Rico. Through his intense and diligent devotion to his studies Tony left the Mount a truly fine scholar. His unassuming demeanor coupled with his ease for logical thinking won the respect of his classmates and faculty alike. An easy-going humorist and conversationalist, this son of Puerto Rico was at home every- where. He was a willing and tireless worker in the lab or at social affairs, and active in the K. of C. and the school Orchestra. Tony was also selected for the Echo intramural all-star s oftball team and for Who’s Who. For this versatile, gentleman, scholar, and friend, a man of spirit and foresight, the future seemed secure in the medical profession in his beloved Puerto Rico.

C. ETHELBERT ABELL, JR. B.S. in History, Placentia, Leonardtown, Md. A real Southerner who could trace his ancestry to the Ark and Dove (or was it Gettysburg and An- tietam), Bert was a true son of Dixie. Fried chicken and ham plus sausage and corn pone accounted for his rosy cheeks and curly hair. Unassuming and mild spoken, Bert’s most emphatic expression was “‘you can bet your sweet life.” He had a great respect for the Dodge Brothers,»and was especially fond of their namesake he guided over Route 15. Torn between two loves, Bert intended to blend teaching and farming into a successful future. As a Pripwin staff member and business manager of the Echo he was always an industrious and dependable worker. be) JOHN M. ANDREWS B.S.in History, 227 Sudbrook Lane, Pikesville, Md. Seldom is found a man with as likable character, good nature, and keen sense of humor as Jack. Versatility, personality, and a profound interest in his undertakings brought him the esteem of the class. He was the managing editor of the PRIDWIN and co-editor of the Echo, and in these capacities he did excellent and admirable work. The “Brow” lived a moderate life as a casual “campus Joe’ and was not easily impressed. A confederate flag waver, he occupied many leisure hours in intramural sports and the arms of Morpheus. Jack was admired for manliness, sincerity, and earnest enthusiasm. With these sterling qualities he won the hearts of many friends, and his talents, of themselves, insured for him a successful future in journalism. WILLIAM J. ANDREWS, JR. B.S. in Economics, 1549 E. 66th St., Brooklyn, N.Y. One of the more enthusiastic sports fans on campus and the possessor of a fine sense of humor, Bill was quick to mix with the typical atmosphere of Mount St. Mary’s. He spread the Dodger fame through Emmitsburg and carried the spirit of the Mount back to Brooklyn. In his sophomore and junior years he was a true member of Slobbovia. Bill was always generous and con- siderate toward those around him. With an optimistic outlook on life and always in search of a good time, he could often be found trying to bring forth a “‘scream and yell,” whether it be on the varsity diamond or amidst a group of fellow students.

JAMES A. BERTRAND A.B. in Philosophy, 157-25, 12th Rd., Whitestone, N.Y. A staunch Moun- taineer, Jim entered the Mount Seminary in 1950 from the College depart- ment. Since he began at the Mount he was active as a member of the Moun- tain Echo, the St. John Berchman’s Society, and an enthusiastic participant in intramurals. He was studying for the holy priesthood for the Diocese of LaCrosse, in Wisconsin. A native of Long Island, Jim intended to conplete his studies at our Mount Seminary. JOSEPH L. BERUMEN B.S. in Economics, 150 Greenway Ter., Forest Hills, L.I., N.Y. The out- standing characteristic of Larry was his ability to avoid all forms of physi- cal exercise that his would-be reformers tried to force upon him. His in- genious sense of humor found its outlet while he was cartoonist for the Mountain Echo. His chief delight was in a good gag, but more so when he passed it on to an appreciative audience. He never worried about anything, and was never wanting for sufficient relaxation. Much of his time was spent either in the canteen at the pinball machine or at the Emmitsburg Legion Post. Father Kline’s theodicy course was to his special liking. His care- free but conscientious attitude toward life made him a vital part of Mount society. THOMAS E. BOYLE A.B. in Philosophy, 6614 Granby St., Norfolk, Va. A resident of Norfolk, but formerly from the hard coal regions of Pennsylvania, Tom studied for the holy priesthood in the Seminary department. Tom was a member of the Shamrock Club during his freshman and sophomore years in the College and at the Seminary was secretary of the St. John Chrysostom Society and assistant librarian. He planned to continue his studies at the Mount Seminary upon graduating. 64
