GIRARD R. DONAHOE B.A. in English, 1213 Green Ridge St., Scranton, Pa. Incomparable en- thusiasm, with an air of friendliness that attracts, was always the impres- sion Jerry left. An import from the Old South, he blended easily into Mount life. Jerry was prominent in all lines of activity and will be remembered for his work on the Pripwin and Echo staffs, the Junior Prom committee, and as chairman of the Red Cross blood drives. Pleasant and congenial, he was always ready to render assistance, as the girls of the Valley will attest. Jerry left behind many friends, staunch and loyal. If ability, personality, and sincerity would lead to success, Jerry was surely to reach the heights in the food and brokerage fields. AUSTIN C. DOUGHERTY B.S. in Economics, 237 N. 2nd St., Wormleysburg, Pa. “Doc” had a pleasant characteristic way of always seeing the brighter side of life, a happy faculty to possess. His personality and dependability were clearly attested to by his host of friends. Endowed with enthusiasm and a sense of humor that made many gatherings successful, his presence was always welcome. Dur- ing his stay at the Mount “Doc’”’ was active in intramural sports. He and Sam Pease seemed like commuters because of their many trips to Harris- burg to visit their respective wives. This able veteran was expected to be successful during law school and life, if determination could be any measure of accomplishment. EDWARD J. DuBOIS, JR. B.S. in English, 186-17 Foch Blvd., St. Albans, N.Y. As an English major Kd did his best to master the subject. He took every English course the College offered in the last four years, accumulating thirty-eight credit hours. His courses were supplemented by his being one of the best-read members of the class. Teaching English in New York was his post-graduate ambition. Ed was a deep thinker and a forthright philosopher. He was ordinarily very quiet, but once in awhile his ringing laughter would echo through the halls of McCaffrey. He was always a perfect gentleman and rarely complained about anything. He was also appreciative of music and played the trumpet with proficiency. His friendly nature made him wel- come among any group. 12

RICHARD L. DeSANDRE B.S. in Boology, 2032 Liberty St., Trenton, N.J. ‘““Punchy”’ was a solid mass of 200 pounds with a myriad of likable features, all of which were over- shadowed by his catching laugh. He had the happy faculty of being able to parallel the modern thinker or the college rah-rah boy whenever the occa- sion arose. At most times he was quiet and unassuming, and frequently given to deep periods of concentration. He talked incessantly of Ann, new records and the latest short stories. ‘‘Rich” could always be found in the middle of the biggest talking sessions, usually provoking the laughter. He was extremely well-liked by one and all, winning friends with his generosity and quick wit. JOSEPH W. DEVLIN A.B. in Philosophy, 301 Beideman Ave., Camden, N.J. Studying for the diocese of Camden, Joe entered the Mount Seminary in September of 1951 after completing three years at St. Joseph College in Philadelphia. While at the Mount, Joe was a member of the Schola Cantorum, the Academia Society, and the St. John Chrysostom Society. He was to remain at the Mount Seminary for his four years of theology in preparation for the holy priesthood. JOHN J. DOHERTY B.S. in Economics, 194 North St., New Britain, Conn. An equal smattering of studying, sports, and girls was ““Doc’s” remedy for all man’s ills. He was always being called to the phone, even, to his dislike, during study hours. He firmly believed that a student could always catch up on his st udies after falling behind, which could account for his status as an honor student. John was a respected man with the flashlight, pad, and pencil at eleven o’clock, but just as welcome when he made the rounds with Camel samples. In springtime, he spent much of his time teaching the younger Mountmen the art of driving golf balls and pitching softball. As a golfer, he was a captain of the Mount varsity, and as a pitcher, owned the only no-hit game in intramural history. 71

EDWARD J. DUNPHY, JR. B.S. in Economics, 9747 Shore Rd., Brooklyn, N.Y. That tall, good-looking, bespectacled fellow usually seen either taking part in some sports event or at the Vets was the ““Dunph.” A notable athlete, he participated in all the intramural events during his four years at the Mount. He was also a member of the Shamrock Club, Met Club, and Knights of Columbus. A s a freshman he played J.V. basketball and varsity baseball. He was a staunch supporter of the Dodgers and spent many hours extolling their glories. He was a lover of a good bull session and a good laugh. His pet gripe was the eleven o’clock curfew. Ed hoped to attend law school after he graduated, but expected General Hershey to have the last word about this. | ROBERT T. DUTROW, JR. | B.S. in Economics, 313 Willow Ave., Frederick, Md. Bob was the stabiliz- | ing factor so necessary for the general rounding out of the education of the class as a whole. He was one of those congenial good fellows with an answer toany question and willingness to discuss it at length. He was ever willing to lend a helping hand to someone in distress. Determination to succeed won this veteran the esteem of his classmates. Bob was a married dayhop and had one lovely child. His future business associates would probably learn, as his classmates and friends already knew, that when it came to reliability, honesty, and sincerity, it would be hard to find the counterpart of this gentleman. EDWARD F. EGAN B.S. in Economics, 1412 A St., S.E., Washington, D.C. Born in Boston, Ed called Washington his home for the past nineteen years, though he still carried traces of his Beantown accent. His knowledge of the nation’s capital proved helpful to many Mountmen who went there for weekends. He was a Bradley Hall resident as a senior and gave guidance to many freshmen in matters ranging from Aristotle to the citizenry of the Valley. Ed was the type who could balance his studies, social life, and athletic activities so that none were neglected. In both cards and life, he was a past master of the game of “hearts” and was outstanding as a debater in the field of philosophy. 73
