An excellent student, June has been on the Dean’s List every year. However, this isn't her only accomplishment, for she is a very talented pianist, artist, pinochle player, talker and technician. One of the seven technicians in the Senior class, she is most proficient at taking donors and breaking expensive glassware. A native of Cohoes, she has been commuting to Albany for die past four years. We’re very glad that June did come to Pharmacy, for we'll always remember this petite and friendly girl. We know that her future holds only the best things for June, because she seems able to turn every opportunity into an accomplishment and every acquaintance into a friend. June A.

Ronald Gaetano “Ronnie” Newman Club 1; Mortar and Pestle 3, 4, Sports Editor 4; Assistant Editor of Alkmbic Pharmakox; Intramural Basketball 1.4; Intramural Softball 1, 4. Ronnie joined us upon graduation from Central High School in Dolgcville. Here at A.C.P. he has participated iri intramural basketball and softball. Also, he often has been seen refereeing the preliminary basketball games. One of Ron’s favorite sayings is: ‘TII get my little cousin Mike after you.” Since we all know Ronnie's cousin— “our own Mike Parelia”, we fully realize what this threat implies. In September, Ronnie took the long walk, and now enjoys the rank of husband and expectant father, since rumor lias it that the stork is on its wav. His bride, Barbara, has done much to aid his scholastic endeavors and will probably aid greatly as an inspiration in the years that follow. We would like to extend to this couple all the wishes for happiness and success which we know the future will bring. 3

Aldo A. Ercolano K'V “Al” Kappa Psi 2, .'5, 4; Senior Class Vice-President; Stu- dent Council 4; A.Ph.A. 4; Newman Club 4. “What a rotten book.” How can the class of ’55 ever forget this statement. Many times these famous words have been uttered by our graduate of Saint Bonaventure’s. During these three years in Albany, “Al” has been mov- ing in a triangle. At one point of the triangle are the hallowed halls of A.C.P., at the second is the Colvin Pharmacy and at the third (last but surely not in the least) is the World’s Fair Restaurant. Together with his wife Toni, Aldo has resided at Uni- versity Heights for four long years. You can be sure that here is one boy who will heed Dean O’Brien’s advice to “go west” (Rochester). You never can tell how things will turn out. Don’t be too surprised if some day you read the headlines “Ercolano wins National Open!” Charley hails from Troy, New York, where he attended La Salle Institute. He left his football career behind him choosing instead a position on our yearly class softball team. While at school Chuck spent much research on the use of mailboxes as pillows, usually in snow up to his knees. He also devoted a great deal of time keeping the chrome on his car in tip-top condition. Charley has now committed himself to a great dietary sacrifice by not having dessert for lunch every Wednesday. After leaving school Charley plans to work for his favorite uncle in New Jersey, the Fort Dix Drug Company, and then become a field representative of the outfit. Charles A.

James E. Gannon K4 “Jim”, Red” Intramural Softball 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 1, 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi 1. 2. 3. 4, Secretary 3; Newman Club 1, 2, 3. 4. Walking lively and flashing a smile, Jim entered our ranks in September, ’51. Although it was only fall in Albany. Jim was '‘chilled to the bone,” having just arrived from New York State’s “deep-freeze”, Watertown. He immediately started research on “Human Adaptation to Gold Temperatures” and soon came up with the right answer. Since then he hasn’t been troubled by sub-zero temperatures. A good natured and good hearted student, Jim is well known for his ability to burn the “candle ol knowledge” far into the small hours of the morning. After graduation, Jim plans on returning to Watertown where he will take up practice and anticipate a tempor- ary leave of absence to satisfy his uncle Sam, that is. Barbara came to A.C.P. from Syracuse University, but it was not long before she proved her ability in Pharmacy. Poise and composure was as much a part of Barbara as ever when she was chosen KAPPA PSI SWEETHEART in her Junior year. If you’re looking for a real treat call on Barbara to make some of her specialties Kumquats and Pomegranates. Always one of the top students in Pharmacognoscy we’re sure she will also be tops as a Pharmacist. Barbara M.
