Annual Statt 4 R.O.T.C. I Aero Club I JIM COSTELLO Jim is one whose kind disposition and tacetious words make us wish that his stay here with us were longer, Hardly a day goes by that Jim does not send the class into an uproar at the expense ot the Solid Geometry teacher lwho promptly floors him on his knees, that isl. Jim, like his brother betore him, is an ardent supporter of good old Nebraska lor is it Oklahomal. Well, it's one ot those smaller states. Almost every day atter school he can be seen playing basketball Ihis tavorite sportl with the Fins. They torm the nucleus ot the St. Didicus basketball team. It after playing a game against them you are still in one piece-you are lucky son, lucky. Although he is not one ot the best players in the school, he is one ot the tightingest. With such spirit and energy as you pos- sess, Jim, we know that there will be no detours on your lite's road. CHARLES CAWTHOIN ln every graduating class there are a few seen-but-not-heard fellows, and in this present class, Charlie is one ot them. His dignity has gained tor him the comradeship ot each and every member ot his class. Charlie's at- tendance at the school activities shows that he has what it takes as tar as school spirit goes. Being a tour-year man around the Patio, he has become attached to his alma mater, as any student who has any interest in his school should: and has manifested this interest openly. The reason tor his being chosen to do the work on the cover ot this yearbook is quite evident, tor Charlie has a very steady and exacting hand, which may in the tuture bring him to the threshold of success, his ingenuity carrying him the rest of the way up the long, hard road. A bright and prosperous tuture lies ahead ot Charles Caw- thon and those who have had the pleasure to know him are sure he will make the grade.

ANTHONY BREGANTE Tony, lcnown better to all his his friends as Bergy, is one of the busiest men around the Patio. Besides being editor of the Augus' tinian he is co-editor of the annual, vice-presi- dent of the Student Body. member of the Glee Club and Drama Club, and also a char- ter member of the newly organized Bowling League, just to mention a few things. As editor of the school paper Bergy has quite a time around the end of each month when he madly collects articles to be sent to the printer. lt is at this time that Bergy leaps into a peculiar sort of fit, common only to editors. These fits are usually brought on by a few simple words, l haven't finished my article yet. Besides doing a fine job as editor of the paper and being tied in with so many other activities, he is always Johnny-on-the-spot when it comes to promoting or supporting any form of social activity around school. Bergy is uncertain, as are many of his classmates, as to what he will be doing after graduation. Camera Club l Glee Club 3 Annual Staff 4 A.S.B.

Today he is a senior and during these four years he has won the friendship of all his classmates. Buz, as he is called by all his classmates, has for the last three years been a member of The Handsome Devil Club lhow he ever got in-oh well, you should see the rest of the membersl. His favorite lilces are working at the post- office, going out with Louise, his steady, at- tending meetings of the H.D.C.. and going to a certain Sorority House in Los Angeles. Buz, besides being a handsome dog, is also gifted with a fine sense of humor. Every now and then he will let a cool remarlc flow from his mouth and send the class into an up- roar and himself to Father Glynn. lf the army does not get him, he intends to go to St. Mary's College. Here is wishing a happy and successful tuture to a gentleman, scholar and sportsman.

RICHARD DOWLING In the graduating class of 46, there is one fellow whose achievements in the major sport of the school, football, is not to be slighted. During DicIr's four-year stay at Saints, he has played three years of football: which for any boy in high school is quite a feat, His undying spirit in the midst of a losing battle and honest integrity won for him a three-year stay in the Varsity A Club. Although DicIr's first love is football, the tall, well-built lad from Kentucky has by no means overlooked the social affairs of the school. His love for good music is shown by his at- tendance at all the school dances, and his character is brought into the light by the fact of his being in the Sodality at Saints in his Freshman and Sophomore years. All things being equal, DicIr's popularity with his fellow students illustrates his well-rounded personal- ity and unrelenting spirit of cheerfulness that he imparts by his presence. His chief worry at the moment is whether he will be drafted or not, a question which is in the mind of many of his classmates, who have just reached that critical age. Aero Club I R.O.T.C.

He is one of the most quiet fellows in the senior class, and is proud of the fact that he has played in the school band, despite any destructive criticisms which are offered by his fellow students. Tom's uproarious laughter, when he catches on to a jolre, is an instrument of delight and a sense of victory for the jokester. His favor- ite sport is football, and he, like the other football enthusiasts, can be seen playing a hard, rough-and-tumble game on the field in every spare moment. I'le also has a great desire to argue or rather debate points of common interest, especially in the history class. Since his arrival at Saints his interest in school worlr, particularly math, as well as his interest in social events, has endeared him as a well-lilred personality with the students as well as the faculty.
