Morris Abramson Plf b M orry” Rho Pi Plii ; Varsity Basketball 1. 2, 3, 4, Captain 4; A.Ph.A. 1, 2. 3, 4; Intramural Softball 2, 3, 4; Sports Editor of Ai.emisic Pharmakon. “1% Merry'' needs no introduction to the students of A.G.P.—he can always be seen head and shoulders above the rest of us! With an “unusual” talent on the basketball court, Morrv was elected captain in his Senior year. He has also been a valuable asset to the social activities of A.C.P. A product of the metropolis of Schenectady. Morry has established a reputation for wholesale destruction of laboratory equipment. Along with his notorious partner, Frank, he succeeded in producing yields of 1% of the maxi- mum but more, often complaining that his partner had spilled the yield into the Hudson River. Morry is rather undecided about the future. How- ever, he is sure of a job with Uncle Sam. After that, he hopes for the position as chief pharmacist in the Vassar gymnasium—applying liniments, no doubt! Frank Anguilli came to A.G.P. from the sleepy hamlet of Utica. N. Y. Frankie has always been the consistent source of relief during class periods. Just when the lecture was reaching Stage III, Plane I of anesthesia Frank would inject one of his comical queries (although very sincere on his part) and the lecture was saved. Long will we remember the hours spent around the card table playing 4-handed Pharmacognosy with suscrofa wild, and those difficult days during final exams when he spent hours at the golf range trying to correct his slice. Soon now he will no longer pass these ivy covered portals with his trusty Remington and U.S.P. at his side, but the odor of that Italian stoggie will long linger as a nlonument to — Frankie.

Sam F. Berardino I A “Sam” Phi Delta Chi 2, 3, 4; Newman Club 1. 2. 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 1, 2. 3, 4. i A quick wit and ever-present smile arc two virtues Sam has very ably developed and is consistent to use. 1 here is no doubt that many of us considered joining the U.S.N.R. as a result of his inexhaustible and detailed sea stories about his cruises in Korean waters off Ginsin each summer. in spite of the fact that during our Sophomore year Sam developed intense and time consuming outside in- terests, he continued to maintain his enthusiasm in his quest for knowledge. In April, Sam abandoned his bachelor days for a much higher vocation in wedded bliss. We know that through the encouragement of a very devoted wife, he will put his unbounding ambition to good use and will rise to the top wherever he might be. Milt was a transfer student in the Sophomore year, com- ing to A.C.P. with a Bachelor of Arts degree from N.Y.U. Milt was one of our finest students and took to pharmacy like the proverbial duck takes to water. His scholastic abilities earned him a scholarship from the Foundation for Pharmaceutical Education. Milt is known for his friendliness, good humor and sense of fair play. He was always willing to help his classmates with their school problems. His classic “discussions with Carmello on the faults of the educational system and other world shaking prob- lems will long be remembered.
