Although a great deal of Ellen's time was spent in commuting from Troy each day, we could always count on Dooce” to find a few minutes to help out when there was work to be done or plans to be made. Active in the Sorority, Ellen was often a member of various committees which carried on the Chapter’s affairs, and she acted as Vice-President the past year. Ellen was also the delegate to the LKS Eastern Regional Convention in New York City last September. A firm advocate of Pinochle, “Donee” was always around when a ‘‘fourth” was needed. Ellen’s ready wit and quick replies will not soon be forgotten. ■ m } JJ IN ■ ?m $? f Y'mwwy- VyWMWW i..m tffm muM If $ WWA . .............................................................................................................. » £ tissis George M.

George, better known as the Richfield Springs Flash, journeyed from that fair town to Albany destined and determined to become a pharmacist and then some day be able to be the number one citizen of Richfield Springs. So far he has done quite well with the first ambition; only time will tell about the second part. George has always been one of the most happy, jolly members of the class. Many happy memories return when thoughts go back to the time George had an apartment with Frank and Milt on Madison Avenue. There will never be days like that again. George found his queen about two years ago, became engaged last year, and is now waiting patiently for July the 10th when that day of wedding bells will be a reality. We all wish George, and the future Mrs. Ehrmann, the best of everything and success in their pharmacy in good old Richfield Springs. 25

James DcSorbo J AX “Sparky” Phi Delta Chi 2. 3. 4: A.Ph.A. 2, 3. 4; Transferred from Union College in Sep- tember, 1951. Jim is one of the boys who joined us in the sophomore year, having previously completed two years at Union College. None of us regret his choice, since he lias been one of the most carefree, likeable students in the class. I would say that we have gained much from knowing Jim, especially in the field of relaxation at any time. Jim’s scholastic record, even though it is very presentable, is not what he will be remembered for. In all probability “Sparky” will remain in our memories as the guy who just can’t stay awake. Day after day, or rather minute after minute, ptosis would set in and Jim would again be a victim of his idiosyncrasy and of those around him. Naturally, being the person he is, Jim took all kidding in good nature. Jim has no definite plans for the days following graduation except to get his license and to await that inevitable call to join Uncle Sam’s finest. It’ll always be a pleasure to meet Jim any time and settle down for a talk about the good old days at A.C.P. Frank has always been one of the most popular and fun-loving members of our class. His enthusiasm and ability helped him to be elected president of his sophomore class. Frank joined Kappa Psi when he was a freshman. This cer- tainly was a good thing, for he has constantly worked hard to pro- mote and better that fraternity. In his sophomore year Frank decided to set up housekeeping with several other students in a luxurious apartment near A.C.P. 'This might not have been so successful if a couple of “outsiders” had not been on hand to keep things under control and to prepare an occasional civilized meal. The financing of this issue of the Ai.f.mbig Ph arm a icon was in good hands with “Lash” as business manager. Ilis tireless wander- ings through the streets of Albany to find new advertisements and to solicit the renewal of old ones have proved to he very successful and his work is greatly appreciated by the school and particularly the yearbook staff. Frank plans to return home to Binghamton after graduation where he will be a definite asset to the profession of Pharmacy. Ilis status now is that of a bachelor, but we are wondering how long that will last. Francis j. DiLascia K'T' “Lash” Class President 2; Kappa Psi 1. 2, 3, 4; Business Manager of Alembic Phakmakon 4; Newman Club 1, 2. 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 4; Junior Prorn Committee 3. 24

Robert W. Elliott, Jr. K'k “Bob” Kappa Psi 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi Regional Convention Delegate 3; A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Freshman Bowling Team 1 ; Junior Prom Committee 3. Bob “Ma Chere” Elliott heeded the beckoning of A.C.P. astride his blue “stude” convertible. He rapidly established himself as a friend and fellow embryo pharmacist with his genial smile and his omnipresent witticisms. Being a capable student, Bob found ample time to cultivate a firm and fond appreciation for the femme fatale and climaxed his extra-curricular efforts in this capacity by suc- cumbing to the “beaux veux” of a fair lass of French vintage. The chilly north country will undoubtedly acquire a new aura of warmth upon the inclusion of Bob’s congenial personality, subsequent to graduation. No Lavoisier in lab (his breakage fee kept the school in the black), Mel still managed a steady spot on the Dean’s list. Both of thorn. Ilis only academic setback came in the scientific study of “Hearts”. A humorist of renown, his stories are well known by all— -he tells them enough. A traveling man of late, Mel has become an authority on dinosaur tracks in the Northampton region of Mass. Having ascended the literary ladder at A.C.P., M.P., the editor of the M P has lost many a night’s slyep putting his paper to bed. In fact, it has been suggested that the job be renamed “Night Editor-Baby-sitter of the Mortar Pestle”. The $64 question, “Where did he get those jokes?” Melvin P.
