Fharmakoai Along with final exams came an announcement that caused every one of us to stop and think; the army and navy reserves were to be inducted into active service and as several men had already left in the previous few months, that would leave us very depleted. We left for a two weeks vacation, knowing that it was “good-bye” for a while to some swell fellows. Juniors already, but what a quiet place was A.C.P.; “sorta” made one lonesome. It took a few weeks to accustom ourselves to such small classes and calm surround- ings. Also attending classes during the summer months seemed like a tedious under- taking, but we chalked it up to the war, and liked it. It was during this year that Dean O’Brien took over his new job, and we wish him luck in all he does. Another change was the absence of Edward Wolff, our former instructor in Pharmacy who had left for the University of Purdue, but Miss Janis Best succeeded him—now one of our favorite profs. We held our regular class election and the following took office: Richard Foley ........ President Claudia H. Stafford....................................Vice-President Gertrude A. DeNure ....... Secretary During the summer several in the class participated in tennis tournaments; we also joined with the other classes in a boat trip to Kingston Point, which turned out to be a very enjoyable day. In the Fall several of our proud soldiers and sailors paid a visit to A.C.P. and were we glad to see them! They all looked grand; “a uniform seems to do some- thing to a man”. At the end of the year we held Class elections for the senior officers—time never stands still— The following were elected: Edith G. Bactowsky . . . . President Anthony Siro . Vice-President Claudia H. Stafford . Secretary Desmond A. Siddon . Historian So onward we rise as dignified seniors—seems impossible that in less than a year we will all be in the Sendee or working as pharmacists or technicians in civilian life. It will be four years that we can look back upon as being the happiest years of our lives—seems incredible that so many things can happen in such a short span of years. Before we leave we want to wish those who are now in the service the best of luck, and we depart with the sincerest hopes that in a very short while they too may be graduating from A.C.P. The best of luck to: C. Bevilaqua, Leslie Coons, C. DeChristopher, G. Goldberg, J. Hibbard, T. LoPresti, and C. Mazzatti of the Army, and to S. Dibble, W. Houghtaling, S. Levine, P. Nosowich, P. Wolkoff of the Navy, and to A. Fiore, who is in the Marines. So long and best of luck to the Juniors, Sophomores and the Frosh—! ! ! C. H. S. E. G. B. M. G. M. M. K. Twenty-one
