AARON MEDWIN 3 UNION UNIVERSITY 5 DEDICATION The class of nineteen hundred and fifty-eight, proudly dedicates this yearbook to its beloved teacher and friend, Professor Joseph M. Lapetina. We do this humbly and with particular gratitude for hav- ing had the opportunity to study with him. For, in this contact, he has shaped our lives and our thinking as much as any single person can. From the beginning of our career, and at the very start of our college lives, Professor Lapetina has taught us the principle of truth. He has constantly strived to show us the scientific ap- proach and has not taught us facts merely for the sake of facts, but rather, has endeavored to instill in us the basic methods of science. At all times his door has been open. When we have sought help in one of his courses, we received it in such a way as to gain a clearer insight into the nature of the problem and also to develop an independence of thought. On the occa- sions that we have asked his advice on a completely unrelated problem, he has tried to give a stronger and more mature out- look. We feel very fortunate, indeed, that in all of our meet- ings, no one could possibly be more fair and just. For all of these reasons, which mean so much to the stu- dent, this senior class is grateful for the opportunity of showing its appreciation to Professor Lapetina, in this small way. 7 DEAN’S MESSAGE Graduates of 1958, may I give you my sincere wishes for a happy and satisfying life in your chosen career. Such a life is not to be measured in the terms of a commonly accepted financial standard but rather by your accomplishments in serv- ing those who place their confidence in you. Most of you will begin a career which must of necessity be a fusion of the professional and the commercial. Professional service in many rural areas would be denied completely unless it received a subsidy from other sources. This is also true in many urban districts because of the uncontrolled competition offered by non- pharmacists who have invaded what we consider our special field. In most cases this invasion has the sanction of legality although there are notable exceptions, but the disturbing factor of the absence of any semblance of professional ethics is a serious problem we have to face. There are those who would advise you to meet this problem by compromising the ethical standards you have accepted as graduates of a College of Pharmacy and prospective licensees by the government of your state. Your license to practice is issued on the basis that you propose to work for the benefit of the citizens of your State and not for the benefit of any individual, group, or corporate enterprise. If you meet today's challenges with professional dignity, I am sure you will be surprised at the public and private support you will receive. The public is ready and willing to separate the real pharmacy from the synthetic. The cleavage between the two is constantly growing. For a happier life in Pharmacy I have three suggestions (I) do not waste your efforts in low grade commercial enterprises (2) provide the inspiration for greater scientific and less economic activity by your professional organizations and (3) keep your own Lamp of Learning burning brightly. 8 Seated: J.

O'BRIEN, Ph.C., Ph.G., A.B.. M.A., Ph.D., D.Sc. Dean and Professor of Pharmacy Albany College of Pharmacy is indeed fortunate to have as its Dean and leader, Dr. Francis J. O'Brien. A holder of many degrees from various sources, our Dr. O'Brien is an active leader and staunch sup- porter of all projects to pro- mote Pharmacy and keep it on its high plane on both local and national levels. Dean O'Brien has been a guiding force to each of us during our four years here at A.C.P. Professor Denegar earned his B.S. here at A.C.P., and then went to New York State Teach- ers College for his M.S. Prof. Denegar has been our professor in Dispensing Pharmacy during our Junior year, taking over for the Dean during his infre- quent absences in our Senior year. We shall always remem- ber Prof. Denegar compiling attendance statistics to deter- mine the leaders of our classes. H. RUSSELL DENEGAR, B.S., M.S. Assistant to the Dean, Assistant Professor of Pharmacy DEPARTMENT OF PHARMACY ALBERT M. WHITE, B.S., M.S. Assistant Professor of Pharmacy Professor White, a native of Connecticut, earned his B.S. at the University of Connecticut, and then became the first graduate student to receive the M.S. in Pharmacy at U. Conn. Prof. White has filled us with two outstanding memories. First his knowledge of Pharmacy Calculations and Manufactur- ing Pharmacy, but perhaps most memorable of all, his winning basketball teams dur- ing each of his six years at A.C.P., including his fabulous 13 and I season this year. BURDETTE G. DEWELL, Ph.C., A.B., M.A. Associate Professor of Pharmacy Professor Dewell, from the standpoint of service, has the most active years here at A.C.P. Except for a short leave, Professor Dewell has been with us since 1924. Prof. Dewell received his Ph.C. here at A.C.P., then his A.B. and M.A. at New York State Teach- ers College. Prof. Dewell is one of the most informed gentlemen as his scope of Knowledge goes well beyond Pharmacy to include Chemistry, Physics and Sociology. Our thanks for his wisdom and guidance. RINALDO V. DE NUZZO, B.S., M.S. Assistant Professor of Pharmacy Professor DeNuzzo is a native son of A.C.P. as he received his B.S. here just six years ago. During the succeeding years he attended New York State Teachers College for his M.S., and is now working on his Ph.D. at Columbia University. Truly a well informed Professor, we have had many discussions on pertinent Pharmacy prob- lems as well as the stock market. Our thanks to Prof. DeNuzzo for his excellent work with our A.Ph.A. chapter. t WILBER C. GORHAM, A.B., M.A., Ph.D. Professor of Pharmacology Doctor Gorham has had the opportunity to instruct us twice, first in the Physiology course, then in the Pharma- cology laboratory. Many times we have come to Dr. Gorham for advice in fields beyond Pharmacology, including pho- tography, physics and elec- tronics. After earning his A.B. at the University of Illinois, Doctor Gorham received his M.A. at Columbia University and his Ph.D. at the University of Michigan. Professor Hanmer is a graduate of our A.C.P. where he ob- tained his Ph.C. and B.S. in Pharmacy. In both of his courses, Pharmacology and Pharmacognosy, we have mem- orized and associated terms, names and facts which will enable us to pass our State Boards. Our thanks go to this gentleman for his patience and guidance throughout our studies. Prof. Hanmer is also the capable Kappa Psi Frater- nity advisor. BIOLOGY WERNER C. BAUM, B.S., M.S., Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Biology t LOWELL E. BINKLEY, A.B., M.A. Assistant Professor of Bacteriology Professor Binkley received his B.A. at Ohio Northern Uni- versity and his M.A. at Witten- berg College. He attempted and quite successfully educated us in the fields of Anatomy, Histology and finally Bac- teriology. We passed through many difficult moments, but hurdled each obstacle as it was presented. Among his many activities, Prof. Binkley guided us throughout the writing and publication of this yearbook. Doctor Baum received his B.S. from Syracuse University, then he went to Rutgers University to work on his M.S. and Ph.D. His magnificent method of lecturing has turned Botany and Zoology, two difficult courses, into enjoyable and thus easy subjects. Doctor Baum is usually found in the biology laboratory where he is always willing to help the often still confused Freshman and many upperclassmen. LAUREN R. HANMER, Ph.C., B.S. Assistant Professor of Pharmacojogy RUDOLPH R. DEL GIACCO, B.S., M.D. Professor of Public Health Doctor Del Giacco had the dis- tinction of attending A.C.P. for his B.S. and then to continue on at Albany Medical College for his M.D. Through his Public Health course here at the col- lege, he has shown us all the aspects of childhood and other common diseases which we will face in our own home and daily store practice. Our thanks also go to Doctor Del Giacco for treating our many illnesses and wounds during our attendance at A.C.P. CLAUDE M. REED, Ph.C., A.B., M.A. Professor of Chemistry Professor Reed Is an alumnus of A.C.P. as he received his Ph.C. here. He went on to New York State Teachers Col- lege where he was awarded the B.A. and M.A. degrees. Being a Pharmacist as well as a Chemist. Professor Reed has a vast wealth of practical knowl- edge to inject into the Fresh- man Chemistry course. Among his activities, Professor Reed devotes time to the A.C.S. and the Camera Club. Doctor Verderame being a native of the Nutmeg state, went to the University of Connecticut for his A.B. Then he went west to the University of Wisconsin for his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees. Though leaving the bachelor ranks recently, we still see the Doc at the ping- pong table and softball diamond. We shall always re- member his compounds with seven common names and the unknowns as we wound up our senior year. MATTHEW VERDERAME, A.B., M.S., Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Chemistry CHEMISTRY AND MATHEMATICS GEORGE B. CERESIA, A.B., M.S., Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Chemistry Organic Chemistry will long be remembered by the gradu- ates of A.C.P. Doctor Ceresia has taken this most difficult course and through his pleasant personality has enabled every one of us to learn and to en- joy chemistry at the same time. Our salute to this gentleman who earned his B.S. at the Uni- versity of Alabama, and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees at Pur- due University. MERVYN H. EWART, B.S.A., M.Sc., Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Chemistry Doctor Ewart, who just joined the married ranks, flew to us from our fine neighbor, Canada. First attending Ontario Agri- cultural College for his B.S.A., Professor Ewart went on to McGill University for his M.Sc. and then over to the University of Minnesota for his Ph.D. degree. Many times we have stumbled over his problems on Quantitative Analysis and Bio- chemistry. As we look back we realize the satisfaction we had when we completed the courses. JOSEPH M. LAPETINA, B.S., M.S. Assistant Professor of Physics and Mathematics Professor Lapetina is a gradu- ate of Siena College where he received his B.S. with honors. He then went on to New York State Teachers College to earn his M.S. Professor Lapetina is an advisor to Phi Delta Chi and the Newman Club. His class activities are well worth men- tioning as he combines basic concepts with practical pharma- ceutical problems. VARANT NAJARIAN, A.B., M.A. Assistant Professor of English MRS. R. A. DOBBINS, B.A. Librarian Mrs. Dobbins, our very efficient librarian, attended Ohio North- ern University where she earned her B.A. degree. She attended Ohio State University and New York State Teachers College in Albany. After teaching in Ohio, Mrs. Dobbins came to Albany and here at A.C.P. has demonstrated her adept library knowledge, and has shown that she possesses a smile with every book in her library. Professor Najarian attended the University of Iowa, where he obtained his A.B. and M.A. degrees. A resident of New England, the Prof, is a con- noiseur of food and drink from Japan to Italy. Through his efforts during our Freshman and Sophomore years, we ac- cumulated a working knowledge of the literature through as- sociation with the works of Shelley, Keats, Shakespeare and Browning. Doctor Mossin has given us a light into the business world as only a non-pharmacist can do. A native of New Jersey, he obtained his B.S. at New York University, and his M.A. and Ph.D. degrees at Columbia University. Doctor Mossin has combined his Accounting and Business Law courses with prac- tical problems to enable us to apply our knowledge to every- day occurrences. HUMANITIES ADAM A. WALKER. A.B., A.M. Professor of Economics Professor Walker opens a new field to Sophomore Pharmacy students as he explores the complicated aspects of eco- nomics. He is gifted with the ability to define the mos'� complicated principles in terms which make them easy to com- prehend. Professor Walker earned his B.S. degree at the University of Michigan and his A.M. degree at the University of Wisconsin. ALBERT C. MOSSIN, B.S., M.A,. Ph.D. Associate Professor of Accounting KATHERINE GLAVIN College Registrar Miss Glavin, our College Registrar, has maintained a most efficient office and has served as a council and guide for thousands of students. RICHARD BARBER Syracuse, N. Y. Dick tday one like him ever be numbered among our friends. A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; S.C.A. 3, 4; Mortar and Pestle 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4. Dick came to A.C.P. from that suburb of Albany, Syracuse. He probably will go into retail pharmacy—perhaps in that fair city or open a chain of stores with his roommate, Dick Baylis. Dick is known for writing fast when taking notes in lectures—his pen really smokes sometimes! Outside interests include bowling and baseball, listening to all kinds of music and playing the accordion. Dick is an avid fan of the Chicago White Sox in the summer and the Syracuse Nats and A.C.P. Panthers in the winter. Best wishes to you in whatever you do, Dick. Wes Reason and calm judgment, the qualities specially belonging to a leader. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi 2, 3, 4; Regent 4; Intramural Bas- ketball I, 2, 3, 4; Softball 3. Wes or Mr. Kappa Psi is best remembered for his prominence in the affairs of Kappa Psi Fraternity. Elected Regent in his Senior year, he was also a member of the Champion Intramural Softball and Basketball teams. Wes was one of the older men in school along with Fran Brendis and Dick Fellows. Lengthy discussions with Dorn Cesta on the finer points of deer hunting are tops on our memory list. Wes graduated from Morrisville Agricultural and Technical School in 1950. We wish him, his wife Joan and daughter Debra Lynn the best of luck in the future. G. WESLEY BARNARD Albany, N. Y. 16 Dan Character is perfectly educated will. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; K.Y. I, 2, 3, 4; W.A.B.S. 4; S.C.A. 2, 3. During his four years at A.C.P., Dan has probably been best known for his active participation—both intercurricularly and in the get laughs department. Mel Blanc has nothing on the top imi- tator in school, since Dan has had us all in stitches at one time or another mimicking everything from Profs at A.C.P. to a squeaking generator. Having survived a few years with Shockley and Thomas, Farnsey plans to set up housekeeping with his fiancee, Shirley Vanderveer, in the fall—to both we wish the best of everything in whatever they do and a tip of the Good Luck Cap to our boy Farnsey in his future pharmacy position near Rochester. DANIEL BARNES Canajoharie, N. Y. JAMES E. BOLLINGER Schenectady, N. Y. ii i n Jim Virtue alone is the unerring sign of a noble soul. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; K.Y. I, 2, 3, 4; S.C.A. 3, 4; Mortar and Pestle 4; Dean's List 2, 3, 4. When the Electric City sent Jim they did us a big favor. Always a gentleman, his neatness was excelled only by his notes. An honor student always, his diligence was rewarded in his senior year when he garnered two scholastic awards at once. Jim loved parties, poker games, St. Louis, big shiny cars, and last but not least his intended, Joyce Bradt. His ability to be wiped out on a test and get a ninety was surpassed only by his consternation about how to get better than a seventy nine in English. Always laughing, he could be found with Jim, Fritz, or Warren planning a blast. Good luck Jim and Joyce, may your blessings be many. 17 Cowboy Impromptu is truly the touchstone of wit. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; intramural Sports I, 2, 3, 4. Fran is a veteran of the U.S.N., who has a beautiful wife named Janet. During his four years at A.C.P., two additions to the family arrived, a boy named Tony and a girl named Paulette. When it comes to playing ping-pong Cowboy could really ride the range, although he was probably one of the shortest guys around the tables. Fran also likes to hunt and fish and he played a lot of softball while at A.C.P. After graduation he plans to enter into retail pharmacy where we are sure he will feel at home. Best wishes to a wonderful guy. FRANCIS BRENDIS Utica, N. Y. Sy” But he whose inborn worth his acts commend, Of gentle soul, to human race a friend. Varsity Basketball 3, 4; Intramural Basketball 2—champs 2; In- tramural Softball I, 3, 4—champs 3; A.Ph.A. I, 4. Coming to us from Gloversville by the way of Cornell where he spent two years, Big Sy has been an active part of the sports program offered by the College. Although his height has never truly been known to anyone around the court, it is supposed to be approximately 6' 5 . He can be seen at any time when needed during school hours at the pinochle table, hooping a couple or, at night, catching a flick with his roomy, Kazoo. During warmer weather he is usually seen carting his golf bag around for a quick nine. Sy intends to enter retail pharmacy on Long Island after grad- uation and we wish him the best. SEYMOUR BUDOFF Gloversville, N. Y. 18 Milf The force of his own merif makes his way. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Newman Club. Milt comes to us as a native Albanian and one who has im- pressed us with his calmness and sincerity. Milt has been a member of the A.Ph.A. and Newman Club. He has expressed the desire to enter the ranks of retail phar- macy, where we are sure he will succeed with his amiability and gifted serious nature. We know that Milt's straight forwardness and good nature will insure his future success. MILTON BURNS Albany, N. Y. ANN SHIEL CANTOR Albany, N. Y. Shiel Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under fhe blossom fhaf hangs on the bough. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Lambda Kappa Sigma I, 2, 3, 4; President 3; Interfraternity Council 3, 4; Alembic Phar- makon 4; Freshman Sophomore Dance Committee 2. Pharmacy won Shiel from the Med. Tech, course in her Junior year, and those who thought her a clown heretofore, saw her serious side—as she staggered through three years of Pharmacy in a few months. Her very long pony tail is attached to a head equipped with a fine dry sense of humor, and sympathetic understanding. Her knowledge of the social graces has made her a valuable asset at Pharmacy, and her ease with people has gained her a large coterie of friends among her classmates. Included in these, is Bill Hallen- beck, whom she will marry June 3. Needless to say, she will miss the Vermont Boards on June 4. 19 Deerslayer' DOMINIC A. CESTA Troy, N. Y. His wit will shine Through the harsh cadence of a ruggish line. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Kappa Psi 2, 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4; Checker Champ 4. One of our commuters from Troy, Dorn graduated from Catholic Central High School in 1954. His four cylinder yellow Jeepster was familiar to everyone at Pharmacy. Dom will always be known for his collection of student parking tickets, and wild tales of adventure in the Adirondacks. The enchanting music from his accordion was always welcomed at the I.F.C. dances and numerous parties. A member of the Terrible Three with Warren Doetsch and Louis Fortin, Dom looks forward to a world tour as guest of Uncle Sam. We wish him success in his future as a Pharmacist. JOSEPH CHIARELLA H'ghiand Falls, N. Y. hi ii Joe Forward and frolic glee was there, The will to do, the soul to dare. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; President 4; Convention 3; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4; Historian 3; Recording Secretary 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Ath- letic Committee 2, 3; Intramural Sports I, 2, 3, 4; Alembic Phar- makon 4. Almost without saying Joe soon became one of the boys , show- ing leadership and initiative when the occasion arose. Through hard work and study he soon ranked high in the class scholastically. In his first year at school he received the freshman chemistry award, followed in his sophomore year by the Kappa Psi Scholarship Key. Joe also showed a high interest in sports. He took an active part in all intramural games as well as devoting two years of service to work on the athletic commission. After leaving pharmacy, Joe plans to enter retail pharmacy, in which endeavor we wish him success. 20 11 f' II Choose A rule of my life is fo make business a pleasure and pleasure my business. Varsity Basketball 4; J.V. Basketball 3; Intramural Basketball I, 2, Champs I, 2; Intramural Baseball I, 2, 3, 4, Champs 3; A.Ph.A. 4; Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4; Athletic Chairman 4; Yearbook Staff 4. Elliot has come to us from Port Jervis High School via a basket- ball court. During school hours Goose can usually be found at the smoker playing cards or trying to figure out a way to avoid school- work. This has been a big year for him, as he has shown himself to be an outstanding member of our exceptional varsity basketball team. For the past 3 years, Elliot has been at the Pinochle Palace of Glendale Avenue, learning the tricks of the trade from classmates Gil and Lew. He has put them to good use. Goose plans to put his good nature and humor at the dis- posal of Uncle Sam after graduation and then his pleasant plans call for retail pharmacy. ELLIOT BERNARD COHEN Port Jervis, N. Y. RALPH N. COMANZO Schenectady, N. Y. H R. C. One inch of joy surmounfs of grief a span, Because fo laugh is proper fo fhe man. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Varsity Basketball 2, 3, 4; Newman Club 3, 4; Kappa Psi 2, 3, 4. Ralph comes to us from Schenectady, N. Y. He attended Ford- ham University for his first year of college and then came to A.C.P. to finish his education. After commuting for two years he spent his last year in Albany at Clubhouse 35 on New Scotland Ave. with R. Giruzzi and F. Viviani, two more members of the varsity squad. Ralph was treasurer of the Newman Club during his junior year. After graduation he plans to enter into retail pharmacy in his home town of Schenectady. Best wishes to a terrific guy. 21 SELIG DAVID CORMAN Albany, N. Y. Gaylord An honest man is the noblest work of God. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4; Chaplain 3, Pledgemas- ter 4; Pharmakon 4. Born and bred right here in the capitol of N. Y., Gaylord has been under the watchful eye of his father and an other member of the family, and has been guided gently by the hand to grace the halls of Pharmacy. Also known as the Mississippi Gambler” and Wyatt Earp, Selig is always in the smoker when needed most, especially if there are a few extra decks to be needed. Selig has been a very active member of Rope and is noted for his generosity towards everyone, his long speeches and 80 m.p.h. His great ambition in life is to someday own his father's store with his favorite sidekick working with him. An active person, Selig has his interest in raising the standards of pharmacy. This he will do, merely by being in it. MICHAEL A. DeLORENZO Mike Hartford, Conn. Patience is the key of contentment. Kappa Psi 2, 3, 4, Treasurer 3; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Freshman-Sophomore Dance Committee 2; Alembic Phar- makon 4. Mike originally came to pharmacy college in 1952 immediately after graduating from Bulkeley High School in Hartford, Conn. Military service interrupted in February 1955. Japan's loss was our gain, however, since Mike returned in our junior year armed with war stories and many helpful pharmaceutical notes. Most of his senior year was taken up with work in the New York State Legislature, parties and keeping up with assignments. After graduation, Mike plans to live in Rye, N. Y. He will be kept busy operating his chain of at least five pharmacies. 22 Win “Away, away, you men of rules, What thoughts have I to do with schools. A.Ph.A.

Y. where he is a member of Dobbins Drugs Inc. as of June 1958. Win's hobbies are cars (if you hadn't guessed) as indicated by his rambling Saab (l j cylinder) and the old faithful U.S.P.XI (no cylinders). While at A.C.P. he found time for Marilyn, studies and all these activities. How he did it was remarkable. Best of luck to a won- WINSTON G. DOBBINS derful friend and classmate. Lyons, N. Y. WARREN DOETSCH Jeffersonville, N. Y. Mr. Remmington He seems a man of cheerful yesterdays and confident tomorrows. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; S.C.A. 3, 4; Class Historian 4; Intramural Soft- ball 1,2. Warren came to us from the small town of Jeffersonville, N. Y. He was married June 2, 1956 to the former Ruth Stiene. Ruth has spent many hours helping Warren study his pharmacy and has been a welcomed companion during the hard school years which fol- lowed. Between classes, Mr. Remmington spends a great deal of time playing checkers in the boys lounge and soon became known for his skill in the game. Warren was elected class historian in his junior year by an over- whelming margin of votes. After graduation Warren plans to enter retail pharmacy. Best of luck to a nice guy. 23 LEONARD E. DWYER Fabius, N. Y. Lenny A little nonsense now and then, Is relished by the best of men. A.Ph.A 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Intramural Sports I, 2, 3, 4. Lenny comes to us from the small but prosperous (as he says) town of Fabius, N. Y. Whenever things were too quiet around the campus at A.C.P. you could be sure that Lenny and his side-kick Leo (Skip) Maggy would do something to wake everybody up. While at Pharmacy, Lenny was active in all intramural sports. He also likes hunting and fishing. After graduation he plans to work in the retail field, but accord- ing to him this will be only part time so that he may devote his full time to ranching. ALFRED S. FADDEN Elizabethtown, N. Y. Willy Oh, make us happy and you make us good. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club I. Al hails from that small metropolis of Elizabethtown, N. Y. One of the most active members of our class, this happy bachelor was seen often at the A.Ph.A. and Newman Club meetings. He also was a member of the Glee Club when it was running in the Fresh- man year. Willy is a great classical music fan and also enjoys his work in the school cafeteria and his special work in the Bact. Lab. After a hitch in the Navy, Al would like to try to go on in Bacteriology or go into retailing in Elizabethtown. Best of luck to you, Al, in whatever line of work that you undertake. 24 Ron The heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute. Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4; Student Christian Association I, 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4. Upon graduation from the Beaver River Central School in 1947, Ron enlisted in the U. S. Navy. During his six years in the navy he was trained and practiced as a navy pharmacist. During his navy years Ron flew to Naples, Italy. When he returned to the states Ron shipped back. This was the only time Ron was on a ship. In 1954 Ron entered A.C.P., whereupon he quickly distinguished himself as a capable student, being fhorough and precise in his work, when he did any. He will be remembered best for his per- petual sleeping in classes. The big mystery surrounding Ron is his English accent. After being graduated, Ron will enter the retail field. This is especially imperative now in order to support his newly RONALD A. FARNEY acquired family. Beaver Falls RICHARD D. FELLOWS Spencerport, N. Y. Dick Determination he must possess for whatever he does, he does with success. S.C.A.; A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Intramural Softball Champs 3. Dick came to A.C.P. from Spencerport High School via the Army. A member of the Army Medics while in Korea, and later a lab tech- nician at Eastman Kodak Co., Dick is one of the more industrious students in the Senior Class. He can be found with Fran Brendis in the parking lot at 7:30 any morning studying Cology. Known for his ability to hit a softball farther than any one else in school, Dick was a member of the Champion Intramural Softball team in his Junior year. Dick and his wife, El, plan to return to Spencerport after graduation, where he will enter the retail field. 25 ALAN FISHMAN Livingston Manor, N. Y. Killer A man with a jest and a jolly smile and a cheery countenance all the while. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Mortar and Pestle 2; Intramurals I, 2, 3, 4; Rho Pi Phi 2, 3, 4. I wonder how cold it is in Livingston Manor this morning. The coldest spot in New York State; this is Al's idea of his home town. A member of Rho Pi Phi Fraternity and an active participant in intramural sports, Al was well known around school. The Killer's neat appearance and wide selection of Ivy League ties were a trade- mark of his presence in and around Pharmacy. Al entered the ranks of the happily married in June of 1957, and then often brought his wife Sue to the basketball games. Success and happiness in your future in the retail field, Al. Ill • II Louie Laugh and the world laughs with you, Study and you study alone. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4; Newman Club 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4. Louie is no stranger to Albany. Before coming to A.C.P. he at- tended Vincentian Institute of this city. A familiar sight around the campus at A.C.P. is Louie and his 41 Chev which he has nursed through the 4 years at A.C.P. In the cafeteria during lunch hour he is often seen with a crowd of freshman girls, one of whom he thinks is just great. After leaving Pharmacy, Louie would like to enter into the field of manufacturing pharmacy where we are sure his skills will shine. Best wishes to a great guy. LOUIS P. FORTIN Cohoes, N. Y. 26 Chef Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake. A.Ph.A. 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4; Mortar and Pestle 4; Student Council 3 (President); Dean's List I, 2, 3, 4. This transplanted Texan excelled in scholastic ability, particularly Chemistry. Long a prominent personality in a black lab. coat, he could often be found seeking his roommate, Johnny Joe, a higher compression ratio, a fermentation product or a way to help a classmate in any way he could. Deputy Chester will follow Marshall Matt this fall and seek his Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin. Good luck and God bless him always. CHESTER DAVID FOX Glens Falls, N. Y. MELVIN FRIEDLAND Riverdale, N. Y. Mel I make it a rule only to believe what I understand. Camera Club 2; A.Ph.A. 3, 4. Mel came to Albany by way of the N. Y. State Thruway from Riverdale, N. Y. He could often be seen whizzing about in his famous yellow and black Ford convertible. While at A.C.P., Mel spent a great deal of time at that famous 84 Grove headquarters with Chuck O'Connor. He is famous for his knowledge of Pharma- cognosy among other subjects. In Pharmacology lab, Mel had a running feud with Al Fadden over the proper technique of anes- thesia. In spare time he is known to excell in water skiing and also enjoys skiing and weight lifting. Many girls will miss Mel after graduation. His future plans include retail pharmacy and to join the Air Force Reserves. Best of luck, Mel, in whatever you do. 27 Les' 11 I would rather be small and shine, Than be large and cast a shadow. A.Ph.A. 3, 4. From the heart of the Adirondacks and Ellenburg Center came Les. A Korean War veteran, Les is one of the quieter and harder working seniors. On the Dean's list quite often throughout his stay at A.C.P., Lester always fretted whether or not he studied enough. His high marks answered his question. Les and his wife Blanche have two children and we know he can't help but succeed when he enters the field of hospital pharmacy. LESTER J. FURNIA Ellenburg Center, N. Y. Yul, Gabe The true standard of quality is seated in the mind, Those who think nobly are noble. A.Ph.A. 4; S.C.A. 3, 4. Yul graduated from Brooklyn Technical High in '48. From there he went to work with his Uncle, Sam, that is, for four years. Yul is more proud of his youngster, Mark Allyn, than of his good marks. Gabe and Joyce are familiar figures at all school functions. After graduation, Yul is thinking seriously about entering retail pharmacy. He has been a very good apprentice at the Gerald Drug Store for four years, and we are sure he will continue to do as good a job in whatever he does. JEROME A. GABRIELLE Albany, N. Y. 28 II I II Jim They laughed when I spoke to the waiter in French but he came right back with some Scotch. Kappa Psi !, 2, 3, 4 (Officer 3); Judicial Committee 4; Mortar Pestle 2, 3, 4 (Editor 4); A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Basketball I, 2; Yearbook 4; Class Officer I. Jim is a resident of Albany and luckily he is. Otherwise he may have never made it home some nights. He is a veteran of the U.S. Army. Jim has a wonderful wife, Jean, and a son, Kevin. His popularity deemed him the honor of delegates to Providence and St. Louis for Kappa Psi, even though he was busy publishing our fine school paper, the Mortar and Pestle. One of his many hobbies is harassing Miltown Frequel Moulton and other members of the WABS. May we meet again Jim, for JAMES GARRITY we shall miss you. Albany, N. Y. MAYNARD E. GILINSKY Binghamton, N. Y. Gil I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. Intramural Softball I, 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Intramural Basketball 4; Rho Pi Phi 2, 3, 4; Pledgemaster 3. Hey, Gil, did you get much studying done over the weekend? has been a familiar question asked by his classmates, since Gil has teamed up with his lovely wife, Arlene, in the summer of '57. The left handed Paul Arizin of Rho Pi Phi has finally been convinced to join the Rope basketball team and has proved his worth of the mighty left arm after all. Many a happy pinochle or poker game was played at the quar- ters of 12 Glendale, where Gil has called his second home. Gil intends to enter retail pharmacy in Binghamton after gradua- tion. 29 Rock1 ROCCO F. GIRUZZi, JR. Utica, N. Y. ii Who has good nature and good sense Qualities of success are sure to commence. Varsity Basketball I, 2, 3, 4 (Captain 4); A.Ph.A. 1,2, 3, 4; K.Y. I, 2, 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4; Softball 1,2, 3, 4. Gentleman, Athlete, Honor Student and a nice guy are just a few of the adjectives appropriate for Rock. All four years at A.C.P. found Rocco ready and willing to partake of both social and scho- lastic functions. Good marks, a friendly smile and helping hand were his trademark. Always a team player, he was naturally a team leader as manifested by the team record. He led an all time prowess for a professional school. Club 35, Frank, Ralph, Fran, Books, Girls, and Beer he enjoyed. Abe 'The only reward of virtue is virtue; The only way to have a friend is to be one. Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4, Fiery Dragon 3, Treasurer 4; A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; Camera Club I, 2, 3, 4, Secretary 3; Mortar and Pestle 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon, Photography Editor 4. Barry is the other half of the famous Bob and Barry team that could be found here, there, or anywhere during the last few years. Barry placed Suffern, N. Y. on the A.C.P. map, turning out to be a wonderful and popular future pharmacist, as his classmates will testify. Always easy to get along with, Barry promoted many fine activities as an officer of Rho Pi Phi. In the Camera Club his wide knowledge of photography gave him instant leadership in the club. Although never quite getting on the Dean's List, Barry has shown excellent scholastic aptitude, particularly in the Physical Sciences. Barry is planning to return to his home town and, in the near future, open a retail pharmacy with the high standard of ethics as only a person of his ability can do. BARRY GOLDSTEIN Suffern, N. Y. 30 Eggie Silence, when nothing need be said, is the eloquence of discretion. S.C.A. 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 4. Eggie came to us from Lincoln University in Pennsylvania where he obtained the B.A. degree in 1950. He majored there in psy- chology. Before this, he had graduated from high school in Jamaica, British West Indies. Since Eggie made the big decision to come to A.C.P., he has been a stout class member and has endeared himself to us with his sin- cerity and earnestness. We will all remember Egbert hurrying about with his briefcase, discussing his studies or relating a particu- lar dilemma of his. After graduation, Eggie hopes to enter hospital pharmacy. We wish him the best of luck, knowing he will be a credit to our pro- fession. EGBERT LIONEL HALL Bronx, N. Y. Bill For glory lies in what we do and what we make ourselves. A.Ph.A. 4. After graduating from Rome Free Academy, Bill joined the Marines and soon became a sergeant. When he got out of the Marines in July, 1954, he decided to become a pharmacist. His lack of a smile very often covered up the fact that he was telling his straight-forward gags which ranged from telling onlookers that he had swallowed poison to the news that a new vitamin had been discovered. During his serious moments, he managed to study enough to get on the Dean's List all four years and to receive a prize for general scholastic excellence in his Senior year. Bill's future plans include marriage in June to Ann Cantor and becoming a detail man for one of the larger drug firms. WILLIAM C. HALLENBECK Rome, N. Y. 31 Anne ANNE LAUREL HAMANN Albany, N. Y.

From our first Freshman days and continuously thereafter, Anne has appeared prominently in fhe activities of the college and was chosen as our Campus Queen in her Sophomore year. A keen sense of humor and a warm personality which was seldom dampened even during the ordeal of exams, made Anne a welcome sight to all. Whether a future in pharmacy lies ahead in the Hamann Phar- macy or in the field of hospital pharmacy, one thing is certain, her career as Mrs. Decker is well established; and as a housewife her success has already been assured. Jane Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue. Lambda Kappa Sigma I, 2, 3, 4, Chaplain 3; A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4, Sec- retary 2, 3; Class Secretary-Treasurer I, 2; Mortar and Pestle 2; Student Christian Association 2, 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4; Cheer- leader I, 2; Freshman-Sophomore Dance Committee. Jane came to A.C.P. upon graduation from Greenwich Central High School and their loss was Pharmacy's gain. She has been active and held offices in many organizations during her four years at A.C.P. including the Sorority, A.Ph.A. and S.C.A., a cheerleader for two years, Jane's pep and spirit on the basketball trips will long be remembered along with her hot foots. Jane's charm and personality won her many friends and helped elect her class Secretary-Treasurer and a candidate for Campus Queen. An energetic individual, she spent her spare hours in her Senior year working in Chem. Lab. and at Klein's Pharmacy. We wish Jane every success the world has to offer. JANE HANSON Middle Falls, N. Y. 32 Paul One essential of a happy life is freedom from care. Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4; Intramural Basketball 2, 3, 4; Intramural Softball 1, 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 4; Student Council I. Paul can generally be seen in his favorite chair at lunchtime with Selig, Sy and whoever is lucky enough to be close to the fourth seat. Originally a Brooklyn boy, Paul has spent quite a few summers at Bellevue (working of course). During the recent summer, Paul took the big step and is enjoying his married life with his wife, Carol, at 284 Western Ave. After graduation Paul plans to make his career in retail phar- macy. We know that he will do well. PAUL R. HARMON Brooklyn, N. Y. Glen There is no substitute for thorough going and sincere earnestness. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Student Christian Association 2, 3, 4. Glen, a dean's list student is probably known by most of us for his amiable personality and ready smile. Glen has been a member of the American Pharmaceutical Association and Student Christian Association for three years. We all know what a hard worker Glen has been, commuting from Scotia, New York every day. It has been a pleasure knowing Glen, a man who has enjoyed his work so much. We know that Glen will be a success in his chosen field as well as a credit to his profession with his good nature and perseverance. Glen has made himself conspicuous in our presence by his quietness. 4 i GLEN HARRINGTON Scotia, N. Y. 33 Pete FRANK A. HEMPSTEAD Hancock, N. Y. 11 Dufy is above all consequence; A good deed is never losf. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4, delegate 3; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4, Scholarship 3; Vice-Pres. and Stud. Council 2; S.C.A. 3, 4; Pres. 4. Pete has been one of the most active members of our class. Mainly through his efforts the S.C.A. has had a very successful year. Deer hunting ranks high among Pete's favorite sports. His hunting trips with Dom Cesta, Fritz Lange, and Bill Lee will provide many interesting tales for class reunions in years to come. On weekends, all roads led to Hancock, N. Y. and his fiance Vicky. Pete and Vicky plan to take the long trip down the aisle this June and nothing but happiness can come to such a fine couple. We are sure that some day soon Pete will realize his am- bition to own an Apothecary Shop (and trailer) in Deposit, N. Y. KENNETH W. HUNTER Ken Albany, N. Y. Graduate to preserve his old friends, and good behavior to pro- cure new ones. A.Ph.A. I; Alembic Pharmakon 4; Intramural Softball I, 2, 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4. Ken came to us from Christian Brothers Academy, of Albany. While at A.C.P. he represented us on Union's Rifle Team. After classes Ken likes to fly light planes and likes to go skin diving (in the summer we hope). During his four years at college Ken was active in several or- ganizations including the Newman Club and intramural softball teams. His help in typing for the yearbook was greatly appre- ciated. After a hitch with his Uncle Sam, Ken wants to join his father's retail business. Best wishes to you in your chosen profession, Ken. 34 Jan” True friendliness in her we find, 4s well as excellence of mind. Lambda Kappa Sigma I, 2, 3, 4; Chaplain 4; A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; Stu- dent Christian Association 2, 3, 4, Secretary 4; Mortar and Pestle 2; Class Secretary-Treasurer 3; Junior Prom Committee 3; Alembic Pharmakon 4. A native of Niagara Falls, Jan has been a great asset to A.C.P. with her scholastic ability and ambition. Her name has appeared on the Dean's List through her four years at College. Janice has been active in many school organizations, working hard toward their success and being elected to several offices. She will long be remembered as a hard working student. In spare time of her Senior year Janice could be found working in Manufacturing Lab. Her success at A.C.P. has proven that all good things come in small packages”. We wish Janice continued success, JANICE IMSON Niagara Falls, N. Y. DONALD J. JORDAN Binghamton, N. Y. Don A clever man by nature, a wise man by learning. A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4. Don is one of the numerous veterans in our class. During the Korean War he served as a still photographer in Paris, France. While at A.C.P., Don's name was found on the Dean's List for two of the first three years (the senior year probably being just a matter of time). Don ran route 7 thin running the weekly Binghamton express. A great baseball fan, he could often be found following his favorite team, the Chicago White Sox (??). He is happily mar- ried to a wonderful wife, Beverly, and during the Junior year ac- quired a lovely little dependent, Linda Marie. Don's future plans include retail pharmacy and a vine covered cottage. Upon commencement we are sure that he will go up the ladder of success in the pharmaceutical profession. 35 11 • II Connie Whenever valor true is found true modesty will there abound. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; S.C.A. 3, 4. Connie came to Albany from Keene, via the Far East, with the help of the Army Paratroopers. Connie married a wonderful girl, Nancy, in November, '57. We are sure his experience in the Law School Cafeteria will help Nancy in the home. After graduation, Conrad wants to go to Ohio for a year or so, then go back to see Uncle Sam—this time to work for him in the CONRAD J. KNAPP F'D'A' Keene, N. Y. Bruce We give him to the world as a rare jewel, For finer friend 'twere far to seek. Rope I, 2, 3, 4; Treasurer 3; A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Intramural Sports I, 2, 3,4. Coast, the popular guy from Rho Pi Phi with the dreams of Marilyn (his wife) in his eyes. Bruce established himself as one of the most likable, loquacious, personalities in the class. Since his marriage to Marilyn in August 1957 he has been a proud husband and well he might be. Not many of us are lucky enough to have such a wonderful wife. Bruce is an active sportsman as indicated by his participation in Intramural basketball and baseball. His sports also included cards of which pinochle was one of his favorites. After graduation Bruce plans to head back to his native Roches- ter. He has plans to open a store with his brother. Our sincere best wishes to a wonderful guy. BRUCE KOST Rochester, N. Y. 36 Dick' He who bears himself like a gentleman, is worth to have been born a gentleman. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Phi Delta Chi 2, 3, 4. One of the quieter members of our class, Dick was an active member of the A.Ph.A. for four years and a member of Phi Delta Chi for three years. In his home town of Binghamton, he is active on the local pistol team. Dick went to Europe in the summer of 1957 and realized a dream that many people do not realize in an entire lifetime. Upon graduation, Dick plans to enter hospital or retail pharmacy in the Valley of Opportunity —Binghamton, Endicott Johnson City. We wish you the best of everything in your chosen profession. RICHARD J. A. KUHN Binghamton, N. Y. FREDERICK LANGE Schenectady, N. Y. Fritz Oh, give us the man who sings at his work. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; W.A.B.S. 4; Pharmakon Business Manager 4. Versatile, jovial Fritz will long be remembered as A.C.P.'s most desirable choice for the Caruso Understudy award. A charter member of the Schenectady Commuters Club for four years, Fritz will be found anywhere, in the present or the future, where there is a party or a weekend sabatical being planned. Schenectady will soon be awaiting the arrival of Dr. Fritz Lange since he plans to, upon graduation, continue his education further in the field of medicine and hopes to attend Medical School in New York City. To Fritz we bid a fond adieu and a special Skol to his success. 37 WILLIAM R. LEE Troy, N. Y. Bill Drink today and drown all sorrow, You shall perhaps be broke tomorrow. Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4. Bill deserves all the breaks in the world. He has survived all the hardships anyone could endure. Bill, we must tell you, has the cutest, sweetest wife, Maria. Must we say more? We certainly will never forget the wonderful times at his home during the current and past years. Billy graduated from Troy High School, then ventured across the Hudson to be with us. Because Bill worked nearly 40 hours a week, his activities had to be limited. How he ever found time to sleep we will never know. Ask him about hunting and fishing and you will find out that he is an expert on them. The best of luck to one of the nicest guys you will meet anywhere in life. CARMINE LOTANO Schenectady, N. Y. Il N ..II Carm Listen to much, speak only what is timely. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Phi Delta Chi I, 2, 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4. Carm came to A.C.P. from Mont Pleasant High School in Sche- nectady in 1954. His quiet nature and willingness to help has won him much respect from his class-mates. He has kept the Lotano name at A.C.P. as his brother Ray did before him and his brother Al and cousin Mike will do after his graduation. The hallmark of Carm's education came in Pharmocognosy Lab. where his seemingly impossible identification of crude drugs aston- ished the class. His knowledge of Pharmocognosy comes from the complete stock of crude drugs present in his father's store. A full 10 points is expected of him in the crude drug identification on the state board. After graduation Carm will take over the operation of his father's drug store in Schenectady, N. Y. The best of luck to a really fine pharmacist. 38 MCI • II bki ppy Happy am I; from care I'm free!

Skipper graduated from Mount Assumption Institute of Platts- burg in June '54. Skippy is returning to his favorite ski slope in the Adirondack Vacationland. He is trying to figure out how to bring his Happi- ness Twin and Club 35 with him. A million laughs and a little mischief made going through A.C.P. a lot of fun. Best wishes to you Skippy. LEO E. MAGGY Dannemora. N. Y. ROBERT E. MANGER Binghamton, N. Y. i Bob Gosh! My life is just one darn thing after another. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; S.C.A. 3, 4. After his second call to arms by the Marine Corps, Bob decided to join the Pharmaceutical ranks. With his lovely wife Laura and daughter Jane, he began four years of study at A.C.P. One of the conscientious students, he spent long hours over books, to fulfill his dream. As a result of his labor, he is about to culminate another job well done. Partaking of the school's social life, Mr. and Mrs. Manger were seen at many functions. He plans to enter retail work in Binghamton upon graduation. Pharmacy needs more men like Bob. 39 john f. McCarthy Little Falls, N. Y. John Honors achieved far exceed those that are created. Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4 (President 4); A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4 (Recording Secretary 3); Vice-President Junior Class; Student Council 3; Athletic Commissioner 2. Studies meant much to John at A.C.P., tor he originates from a Icng line of Pharmacists and regarded his work seriously. With the anticipation of entering graduate school at the University of Wis- consin, he put his nose to the grindstone the last two years and came through with flying colors. We know that he will do the same out there for he truely has remarkable courage and determination. The boys enjoyed his company on his many nights out with them. We will never forget how much he liked to dance. Godspeed to you John and your wife to be, Ann Marie. Teach your children how to ski as well as you can. Barney My way of joking is to tell the truth. It is the funniest joke in the world. Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4; Yearbook Staff 4. Steve has distinguished himself in the battle to gain the attention of the professor during lectures. Barney has kept everyone in stitches with his quick tongue, acid remarks and indescribable humor. In fact, his remarks during lectures have earned him the title of adju- vant to easy lecture comprehension. Barney is usually struggling with either a razor or the difference between exempt and excepted. After graduation, the man with the acid-fast trousers (of organic and bact. labs) is off to retail pharmacy. We know his joviality will carry him out of difficult situa- tions and to success. STEPHEN I. MICHAELSON Albany, N. Y. 40 Ed I wonder often what the Vinters buy One-half so precious as the stuff they sell. Vice-President I; President 2; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4; Student Coun- cil I, 2; Athletic Committee 2; Assistant Editor of the Pharmakon 4; S.C.A. 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 3, 4. Ed is one of the most genial, hospitable persons we will ever know. We en oyed his laughter and calamity for four years. We will certainly miss him. Sluggo was a veteran of the U. S. Navy when he came to school with us. Now we all know why he was trim and well-groomed in school. Ed plans to be married this summer to a wonderful girl, Shirley Fox. He plans to enter retail pharmacy somewhere near Courtland. The best of luck to the greatest personality. EDWARD MOULTON Courtland, N. Y. GEORGE O'CONNELL Schenectady, N. Y. 11 ii George Virtue is its own reward. Phi Delta Chi I, 2, 3, 4; Secretary 4; A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Newman Club 2, 3, 4. George is another one of the boys who hails from Schenectady, N. Y. He entered A.C.P. after graduation from Mount Pleasant High School. He became immediately interested in the fraternal affairs of the College and promptly pledged to the Phi Delta Chi Fraternity. After three years of fraternal work he was elected secretary and has done much for Phi Delt in this capacity. His easy going manner, both in class and out has won him many friends and a good solid average for his four years of colleqe. After graduation George expects to tie the knot with his fiancee, Marilyn, and work a year before persuing his graduate work. With his preference for the large drug companies we are sure a fine position will await him. 41 FREDRICK O'TOOLE Oswego, N. Y. Ted 11 His injuries are written in sand; his friendships in marble. A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; V.P. 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Senior Class Secretary-Treasurer; Intramural Sports; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4, Chap- lain 4. Ted comes to us from Oswego, N. Y. He is always one for a good time, his cheerfulness is constantly around the campus of A.C.P. When it came to the Kappa Psi parties, Ted was one of the first there and the last to leave, keeping everyone going with his stories and numerous jokes. Ted is the outdoor type and loves hunting and fishing as well as beautiful women. In his Senior year he was elected Chaplain of the Kappa Psi Fra- ternity and was also sent as a representative to the '57 convention of the A.Ph.A. Ted's plans for the future take in retail pharmacy. The best of luck to Ted. Pasky Virtue and genuine graces in themselves speak what no words can utter. Freshman Class President; Phi Delta Chi I, 2, 3, 4, President 4; A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Newman Club 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon Assistant Editor. Pasky, or Ed, a native of Schenectady, is well known to all through his many activities at A.C.P. His popularity and capacity for lead- ership was shown immediately by his election as Class President in the Freshman year. His continued hard work culminated in his elec- tion as President of Phi Delta Chi Fraternity. In spite of his many activities he has maintained himself as an honor student. We could all be certain when the deer season opened by Ed's ab- sence. His hunting prowess was indicated by the fact he rarely came back empty handed. Judging from his past accomplishments, Ed's prognosis is bright. EDWARD PASQUARELLA Schenectady, N. Y. 42 Bob To know him is to like him better. A.Ph.A. 2, 3; Rho Pi Phi 2, 3, 4; Yearbook Staff; Mortar and Pestle. Bob came to A.C.P. in 1955 after spending one year at R.P.I. His scholastic abilities were made known to us in his first year at Pharmacy when he made the Dean's List in the very difficult sopho- more year and has remained there permanently. His ability to take complete and unabridged notes has been an attribute to his scholastic success. Very often you find Bob lending his notes to a delinquent student who had missed class. Bob's friendly manner has won him many friends and a position of prestige among his classmates. After graduation Bob expects to continue his education in medi- cine. His sincere and aggressive attitude in gaining an acceptance to a medical school will bring him success. ROBERT POMERANTZ It can be safely said that R.P.I's loss was A.C.P.'s gain. Floral Park, N. Y. JOHN JOSEPH PUTNAM Johnny Joe Glens Falls, N. Y. No civilized person ever goes to bed the same day he gets up. A.Ph.A. 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4. John is an idealist. A more good-natured guy you will never find. A veteran Marine back from Korea, he chose to return to A.C.P. His presence on campus was soon felt. Always ready for a party, cards, darts, or girls, Johnny Joe loved school. Maintaining gentle- manly marks throughout four years, J. J. always came through when the pressure was on. His leadership ability was not felt till his senior year, when as the President of the WABS he shaped them into a smooth rolling group. Tyrone, another of his names, loved to enter a game of chance, and Jim was usually with him. John J. Putnam was always a gentle- man, professional and last but not least a good friend to all he met. Pharmacy cannot help but be enhanced by men of his stature. 43 BERTRAM A. RAPOWITZ Albany, N. Y. Bert Good humor is the health of the soul. Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4; Recording-Secretary 4; Intramural Basket- ball 2, 3, 4; Intramural Softball 2, 3, 4; Athletic Commission 3, 4, Chairman 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4. Bert has been a very active member in the halls of Pharmacy for the last four years, in fraternity affairs and helping Prof. White out with the Athletic Commission. Bert is a native Albanian, who graduated from Albany High. He is known for his warm personality and winning smile, which has won him many friends and has shown them great hospitality and courtesy to any who enters the Rapowitz household. While drumming up business for the basketball team, Bert could always be found with a deck of cards, a finagle-factor, or a good looking girl. It is debatable whether he will be remembered longer for his famous laugh or his rapid talk. Good luck to you Bert, in your life in retail pharmacy. John When we shall have succeeded, then will be our time to rejoice and freely laugh. Outside of his marriage to Kay, one of the biggest days in John's life was the day he was discharged from the Navy in 1954. One of John's favorite pastimes was explaining how he managed to serve in the Marines while in the Navy. John could always be seen pulling his Plymouth into the parking lot every day and then rushing into class carrying his briefcase. His willingness to voice his opinion on many subjects provided many an interesting discussion and will long be remembered. Among his pet peeves, drug stores giving out green stamps ranks the highest. John hails from Troy, N. Y. and during his four years at college he gained valuable experience working in a pharmacy in his native city. We wish the best of luck to John and his pretty wife Kay. JOHN W. RESNIK Troy, N. Y. 44 Jack Not to be conquered by these headlong days, A very fine fellow in many ways. Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4. Jack, who hails from Brooklyn, N. Y., has maintained an enviable average tor his four years of work at A.C.P. He has been constantly on the Dean's List. Many times Jack has come out of an exam and has said, I did very badly on that test, only to receive 85 or 90. In Jack's Sophomore year he picked up the nickname of Beak which he carried with him for the remainder of his college years at A.C.P. We'll always remember Jack's neat and petite laboratory procedure in Qualitative Chemistry. But he proved to us all that procedure is only one-half the battle for a good grade with his con- stant B's in chemistry. We all wish you the best of luck Beak and know that whatever your future work might be you will be a success in dental school. JACK M. ROSENBERG Brooklyn, N. Y. ROBERT ROZEK Buffalo, N. Y. Bob For he was a married man—in fact the most married man I have ever seen. Intramural Basketball I, 2, 3, 4; Intramural Baseball I, 2, 3, 4; Pharmakon Staff 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Dean's List. A quiet, likable, rugged young man was Bob. Directly from the Buffalo area, he certainly inherited the calmness and serenity of Lake Erie. For three years Bob's heart was in Buffalo, although he was here! Then July 20, 1957 he took his wife, the former Grace Ann DeMarco down the aisle to exchange vows; now his heart is here once more. Mrs. Rozek is expecting the patter of little feet in August, and with Bob working in his Dad's store, they will be busy. Best of luck Bob, it was nice knowing you. 45 LEWIS SALL Binghamton, N. Y. Lewie I m on the brink of a great career. Won't somebody please push me off? Intramural Softball I, 2, 3, 4; Intramural Basketball I, 2, 3, 4, Champs I; Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4; Fiery Dragon 4; A.Ph.A. 3, 4. Since his election of Fiery Dragon of Rope, no one has dared to speak out of term lest Sweets drops a slight charge on them. Lew is famous for many things in his four year stay at Pharmacy; the pegged pants, the impersonation of a certain prof, the face behind the cash register at the Law School. Mr. Bob would like very much some day to swing his own cool little combo and tries his hand at the sax. Lew's big ambition in life is to own the Kent Drug S-rore Chain in Binghamton and own some stock in the Lordard Tobacco Com- pany. We wish you the best of luck, Lew. NORBERT SCHINDLER Norb Esperance, N. Y. Solitude is as needful to the imagination as society is wholesome for the character. A.Ph.A. 3, 4. Our association with Norb these last four years has been indeed a rich one. We all admire the way Norb has maintained his scho- lastic record unblemished for four years as a 4 time Dean's List student. Aside from his achievement in study, Norb has had the time to devote much of his efforts to working in the law school cafeteria. Those of us who know Norb know that he will go far in retail pharmacy which he has chosen to pursue. Norb is also distinguished by getting constant A's in Physics lab., a feat accomplished by few. 46 Don Half the world are squirrels, the other half are nuts. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Mortar and Pestle 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4. Seef has come to us via the thriving metropolis of Tilly Fos- ter, N. Y. Don could have been seen buzzing around with Barry and Bob in his green Studebaker and was always willing to give someone who was distressed a helping hand. As of late, his buzzing around time with the boys has greatly been diminished due to a certain very pretty young miss. At the present time, Don hopes to settle in Brewster, N. Y., where he plans to work in his father's pharmacy. Who knows—he might become the Rockerfellow of the Pill Pushers! Don's friendliness and warm personality has won him many friends at Pharmacy and we sincerely believe that he will succeed in every way in his future. DONALD I. SEIFERT Tilly Foster, N. Y. Bob Who makes quick use of the moment; is a genius of prudence. Intramural Basketball I, 2, 3; S.C.A. 3, 4; K.Y. 2, 3, 4; W.A.B.S. 4. Shock will long be remembered for his versatility, good nature, and most of all—humor. Famous for presenting exceptionally ac- curate descriptions of the local cinemas (from start to finish yet!) and for his comments concerning his subsonic car to any and all, Shock always can be depended on to inject a laugh whenever called upon to do so. A chartered member of The Terrible Three of Yates Street, Bob hasn't any immediate plans maritally speaking (claims marriage is for young boys and rabbits—?) but the Fort Plain Rexall Pharmacy is eagerly awaiting his graduation which should keep the man-sized napoleon busy. Good luck to one of A.C.P.'s finest! ROBERT C. SHOCKLEY Fort Plain, N. Y. 47 Norm NORMAN SIMMS Sag Harbor, N. Y. The man fhaf loves and laughs must sure do well. A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; S.C.A. 3, 4. Norm is another one of the happily married men in our class. Since Sept, of 1956, Norm has had wife Rita for a room-mate and she is expecting twins in July. After leaving Pierson High in Long Island, Norm came up to A.C.P. to charm us all with his happy manner and good sense. We remember with delight the long, long hours he has always spent in his chemistry labs and his vivid attention in early morning lectures. After the big days in June, Norm hopes to return to Sag Harbor and enter Retail Pharmacy. We wish him and the whole family the very best. Skins, Red, Jim The style Is the man himself. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Varsity Basketball I, 2, 4; Alumni Basketball 4; Phi Delta Chi I, 2, 3, 4. The Redhead from Schenectady will certainly always be remem- bered for his homemade humor, friendly, and studious nature. Jim made a name for himself in his senior year when he achieved the distinguished B award given him by the Senior Boys Bowling So- ciety. Among his other notable accomplishments is the torrid tennis tournaments with Prof. Najarian which seem to prevail year 'round and the stellar performances at Alumni basketball games. Jim, having worked his senior year at the Albany Hospital Dis- pensary as an apprentice, desires to continue with the branch of the profession after graduation provided Uncle Sam doesn't get there first. Good luck to another of our favorite seniors in whatever you may do. JAMES E. SKEALS Schenectady, N. Y. V 48 Dex Good company, and good discourse are the very sinews of virtue. S.C.A. 2, 3, 4; K.Y. I, 2, 3, 4; K.Y. Treasurer 3; Senior Class President; Alembic Pharmakon 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Student Council President 4. To the Green Mountain State of Vermont, we give thanks tor sending us one of it's finest representatives. Dex, who, in four years has become one of the most well liked in the class, has truly been an important factor leading to our success at A.C.P. Dex has al- ways been an active leader and sincere in his studies which can be strengthened by the scholarship received by him in 1956 from the State of Vermont. With no definite plans after graduation, Dexter claims a need to oblige Uncle Sam for the next two years. Thus, with the storage of the gavel, we wish him the best in all he may do. DEXTER B. SPAULDING Waterbury, Vf. WILLIAM D. STILWELL Ilion, N. Y. Bill II The great end of a good education is to form a reasonable man. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Assistant Editor of the Pharmakon 4. This unique, colossal, member of our class enjoyed being every- where at once. Especially in New Jersey while being here. Bill journeyed from the hills of llion to donate four years of his solid brilliantness to us. His nights out with the boys ended in hilarious laughter, he always kept us in hysterics. His extracurricular activities included the nines club for four years and cafeteria for three and a half years. (He sometimes would eat out at Keelers.) Bill's hobbies included torturing bacteria, watching clocks, meas- uring the distance to New Jersey in microns and being a gentleman. We will miss you Bill. 49 LYNN STOTE Alplaus, N. Y. Lyn Ah, no! The conquest was obtained with ease; He pleased you by not studying to please. A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; K.Y. I, 2, 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4. The term Ace can definitely be applied to Lynn without any disagreement or doubt since, during his stay at A.C.P., he has been the recipient of the Schenectady Pharmaceutical Association Scho- larship and has been on the Dean's List. A top bowler and a triple threat with the opposite sex, Beeg- boy spends most of his spare time working at Mahoney's Pharmacy in Schenectady and having a ball with the boys. Lynn has no immediate plans following graduation and we hope Uncle Sam won't take the Alplaus Whig out of circulation and ruin that special part in Lynn's Locks. Good luck to Mr. Daddy Cool! Mike Always ready to joke, laugh and be gay, And still in work he makes each minute pay. Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4, Vice-President 3; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4, Treasurer 4. Mike is one of the many members of the Mohawk Valley Club. He comes from Little Falls, N. Y., which has the singular distinction of being the only city in Herkimer County. During his four years at A.C.P., Mike has been very active in the Newman Club and be- came its vice-president in his junior year. During the past year Mike has been showing signs of placitude. It must be the influence of his coming wedlock and adventure in domesticity. At the present Mike is planning to do graduate work in Bacteriology. Having been an industrious member of the Class of '58, there is no doubt that Mike will succeed in any profession he might choose. MICHAEL J. SUBE Little Falls, N. Y. 50 Ron” A day for toil, an hour for sport, But for a friend, life's too short. Kappa Psi 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 2, 3, 4; S.C.A. 2, 3, 4; Senior Bowl- ing League. Ron, the quiet, amicable father joined us as a sophomore after graduation from Saint Lawrence University with a B.S. in Biology. He certainly proved his responsibilities, being a wonderful parent to his son Brad , born in May, '56 to his charming wife, Nola. While most of us will be finishing basic training, Mrs. Szymalak will again be a proud mother, expectedly in September. Ron enjoys Hi-fi records and in the future will be teaching the junior Szymalaks the aspects of retail Pharmacy. RONALD SZYMALAK Albany, N. Y. ROBERT B. THOMAS East Aurora, N. Y. Thompson A reputation for good judgment, fair dealing and truth is itself a fortune. A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; S.C.A. 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi 2, 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4. Bobby, the laughable, friendly, terror from 447 Yates St. came to A.C.P. as a Sophomore, a transfer from the University of Buffalo. He quickly gained our friendship; (we couldn't help it, he clowned into it with his enjoyable tales.) Bob is the luckiest person in the world. He is engaged to a won- derful young lady, Sally Shaddoch, a dental hygienist. (The big blast will be July ninth at East Aurora). After the honeymoon Bob plans to share the business of the Thomas Drug Store with his father. Another truly tremendous kid who deserves the best always. 51 A.Ph.A. 4. Phil 'A gentleman by gentle deeds is known.” PHILIP TUCKER Albany, N. Y. Phil has returned to us this year after leaving A.C.P. in 1955. In between, he had a tour of duty with that selective club known as the U. S. Army. This year Phil plans to graduate and go into retail pharmacy here in Albany. In the time we have known him, Phil has shown himself to be mild mannered and serious. Along with college, he has been bolstering the staff of the Crestwood Pharmacy and gaining valuable exper- ience. During the summer, Phil can be seen swimming and just plain enjoying the sun. We wish you the best after graduation and know you will do well. Hal God bless the man who invented sleep.” Camera Club 2, 3, 4; S.C.A. 3, 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4. Hal, a gentleman in everyone's book, is always the same wherever you see him. We will never forget this wonderful, hospitable person. On October 26, 1957 he was united in matrimony with his sweet wife, Peggy Stauber, who graduated from A.C.P. in '57. Hal's ambition portrayed his true character. Every Wednesday night he attended the U. S. Naval Reserves during the four years. Likewise, he was employed by Matthews Pharmacy for three years. Hal plays a cool trumpet, exemplified by the various dance bands he has played in. To you Hal, your classmates wish you the best of everything in the future. HAROLD E. VEEDER Poughkeepsie, N. Y. 52 Viv True enjoyment comes from activity of the mind and exercise of the body. A.Ph.A. 1, 2; Varsity Basketball 1,2,3, 4; Newman Club 1,2,3, 4. Frank, who is as quiet and mild mannered as any gentleman you are likely to meet, has distinguished himselt as an athlete during his stay at A.C.P. During this excellent basketball season Viv” proved himself to be an excellent player, seeing a good deal of action in the 14 games. This senior year has been spent at the exclusive club on New Scotland Ave. with team and classmates, Rock Ralph. The boys have been engaged in an active public relations campaign using newspaper ads and a front window. In school, Frankie has been very interested in the chemistry un- knowns and biochemical reactions of certain bacteria. After graduation, Frank hopes to return home and work in retail FRANK VIVIAN I pharmacy. We wish you good luck, Viv ! Utica, N. Y. ROBERT A. WEISMAN Mortal Man Kingston, N. Y. I have no secret of success but hard work. Rho Pi Phi I, 2, 3, 4, Vice Chancellor 3, Chancellor 4; Interfra- ternal Council 3, 4, Secretary 4; A.Ph.A. I, 2, 3, 4; American Chemical Society Symposium 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon, Editor-in- Chief 4. Bob came to us directly from Kingston High School, but his maturation was rapid as he quickly absorbed the ways of college life and studies. His presence was conspicuous on the Dean's List for four consecutive years. As a lab. assistant in Bacteriology, he gained more valuable knowledge. Not all interests were scholastic, as Bob was elected the chancel- lor of Rho Pi Phi, where he did wonderful work. Of course, the parties and study sessions at 287 Washington will long be remem- bered. This excellent combination of scholastic and extracurricular activi- ties earned Bob a Teaching Assistantship at M.l.T. We all wish Bob luck as we know his dry humor will carry him far. 53 CARL WHITESTONE Utica, N. Y. Carl Observe his ease of manner and match him, if you can. Rho Pi Phi 2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 4; Intramural Sports; Pharmakon 4. Carl, a graduate of Harpur College, is one of the many represen- tatives from Utica, N. Y. He came to A.C.P. in 1955 in his flashy red convertible which has since become famous and forlorn. For two years he lived with the boys at 395 Quail St. where he took part in the riots and cramming well known at that address. Carl has spent much of his spare time working, first in the bac- teriology lab and then at Lippman's Pharmacy where he is a fa- miliar sight. In his usual good natured manner, Carl has taken a lot of ribbing ever since one of the profs mistakenly called him Whitehouse. He has since been referred to as Whitehead, Whitewash and many other such names. Carl married his very charming wife Bronda after his Junior year. He expects to settle down in retail pharmacy. MARK WILLIAMS Markus Syracuse, N. Y. A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market. Phi Delta Chi 3, 4, V.-P. 4; A.Ph.A. 4; I.F.C. 4; Varsity Basket- ball 2; Intramural Basketball 2, 3, 4. Shorty, from Tipperary Hill, N. Y. (outside of Syracuse) is truly a remarkable personality with the hot '46 Ford. He hit the jackpot June 15, 1957 by going to the altar with Joan Ann Sansone. Mark reached the peak in politics in January 1958 when he was elected chief Moose inspector for the Cortland, N. Y. area. He and his wife expect their first child in September and after graduation (3 months before) he will return to Syracuse, build him- self a store with a dart board and ready himself for the second dart shooter of the family. May we meet again Mark, you were great the first time around. 54 Dick” He looks so stately, calm, and cool —you ought to see him out of school. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Kappa Psi I, 2, 3, 4. Dick, by birth a Pennsylvanian, came to A.C.P. from Ilion, N. Y. in the heart of the Mohawk Valley, which he now considers his home town. As a result of working in a pharmacy there, Dick developed his interest in the pharmaceutical profession. Three characteristics together individualize Dick at A.C.P.—his even disposition, his good looks and his continual borrowing of cig- arettes. Dick has distinguished himself as an indispensable member of the Honikel Pharmacy staff, where he has been employed for these four years. Dick has been a faithful and enthusiastic member of Kappa Psi since his Freshman year and he plans to enter the retail field or to become a hospital pharmacist upon the receipt of his license. RICHARD WILSON Ilion, N. Y. PETER E. ZITO Albany, N. Y. Pete And frame your mind to mirth and merriment; which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life. K.Y. 3, 4; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Alembic Pharmakon 4; Photo Club I, 2, 3, 4; Athletic Commission 4; A.Ph.A. 3, 4. A graduate of Albany's Christian Brother's Academy, Pete will surely be remembered for his jovial and joking manner. Pete will always be thought of as one of the top entertainers at A.C.P. and we'll never forget his excessive hospitality at those tremendous Zito Cocktail Parties. The wit and humor of the Pete Zito-Mike DeLorenzo variety always added that extra bit of zip to a party or get together. Pete plans to leave the tri-cities area following graduation for a position in New York City where he will work as a retail pharma- cist—luck and speedy success to one of '58's favorite contem- poraries. 55 MEDICAL Ginny Silence is the most perfect of joys. Lambda Kappa Sigma I, 2, 3, 4; Mortar and Pestle 2; Student Christian Association 3, 4; Glee Club I. One of the quieter members of the class, Ginny has gained many friends since she entered A.C.P. During her four years at College she worked hard and was active in such organizations as the Sorority and S.C.A. and worked on the Mortar and Pestle. Although Ginny lived in Colonie she managed to attend many school activities even when she had to change a flat tire in order to get there. Her friendly manner was always a welcome addition to any- activity. Being a Med. Tech., it is not surprising that Ginny plans on working in one of the local labs upon graduation, preferably in the bacteriology department. We wish Ginny the best of luck in her future work with bacteria. VIRGINIA M. GRITSCH Watervliet, N. Y. 56 Dido 'As rich and purposeful as is the rose. Freshman-Soph Reception 2; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4. This Med. Tech, student has the most consistently sunny dis- position in the graduating class. Any group is brighter for her good humor and good character. Her attention to and interest in people helps her to make and hold friends easily—and without ef- fort she keeps a conversation going where others fail. A ready worker in all departments, Dido has added her hearty support to basketball games, Newman Club projects, numerous par- ties both at home and at R.P.I., and has done her share of studying, too. Noted for needlework, she handles a sewing machine as well as she does a syringe, and never leaves a bruise with either! ANN DIDOMENICANTONIO Watervliet, N. Y. TECHNOLOGISTS hi n Joannie A kind heart is a fountain of gladness. Freshman-Sophomore Dance Committee 2; Newman Club I, 2, 3, 4; Lambda Kappa Sigma 2, 3, 4. When Joannie joined our ranks in 1954, she had already been practicing her chosen profession for two years and had decided that a college degree would be to her advantage. Her quick wit and ready smile was soon well known around school. She was a welcome figure at all extracurricular activities even though commuting from Schenectady sometimes made it hard to get home at night. JOAN ZDUNCZYK Joan plans to be married in August to Dick Graham, after which Schenectady, N. Y. she and hubby will move up to the North Country. 57 ( ) ;o o - z m cn zi c o CLASS of 58 - OFFICERS HI ™ w°r CHEM. LAB. T.B. TEST LECTURE PREGNANCY TEST BACT. SUSCEPTIBILITY TEST MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY Medical Technology is a profession which offers much to anyone who is interested in the field. A graduate with a major in Medical Technology may use this as his basis for going into graduate work in Bacteriology, Chemistry and many other special- ties, or may choose to enter the field as a tech- nologist under the direction of a pathologist. Laboratory procedures have become so extensive that there is now a greater need for Med. Techs, than ever before. Our Med. Techs, disappeared over to Bender Lab. in our Junior year, reappearing with stories of autopsies, their first venal puncture, and animals used for various tests. During this time they were actually kept very busy with Serology, Pathology, Hematology, and Bio- chemistry. FACULTY Dr. Luther, Dr. Vieze, Miss Fox, A. Kemnitzer, Miss Mountain, Dr. O'Brien, Dr. Keroven, Dr. Larbig 61 OUR JUNIORS The Junior Year is a big stepping stone at Pharmacy College, as in a short time we each shall be going our separate ways to utilize our knowledge as professional men and women. And with the years to come we shall each look back to the mem- ories encountered throughout our college days, and enjoy an occasional frown or chuckle. The junior eagerly awaits the day that the rings come, proudly dis- playing the crest as a symbol of achievement. This year the rings were delivered on March I I, although some of the students picked them up at Balfour, in Schenectady, in advance. An array of blue, green, red and black stones were the choices of the year. The disappointment we experienced came when we learned that our trip to Detroit with this year's Seniors was postponed for us due to the large size of the classes. Since it is an affair we all anticipated, the news was a bit dismaying, but we were rejuvenated when it was an- Row 1: E. Gerum, J. Scott, K. Teliska, N. Welch (Class Secretary), D. Tarnowski, K.

The Winter brought complaints of aches and pains to some of our members due to the miscellaneous toboggan parties that arose. The slopes of the Municipal Golf Course were the scenes of two of these parfies which, more or less, dissolved the strains of school for the eve- ning. It seems that after each trip down the slopes, the return trip to the top got progressively longer. A new first for the Junior Class: This year's Junior Prom will be semi-formal rather than formal. The place and date are as yet unde- cided, but we expect it to be the dance of the year. As we sign off, our best v ishes go with the Seniors; may they be successful in their future endeavors,—the road to happiness being short in length and long in duration. Row 1: C. Chin, D.

OUR SOPHOMORES The second year of the pharmacy curriculum is supposed to be the year that makes or breaks a student of pharmacy. But this does not express the actual significance of the sophomore year to the members of the class of I960. To us it is a year filled with hopes, desires and frustrations. Yet, we feel and know that at the close of this year we will not only be upperclassmen, but also that we will have accomplished one- half of our goal. Although the academic requirements are stringent during the school year, they have not kept us from enjoying the other side of col- lege life. The midnight parties at the Kenmore, and the many frater- nity week-ends will be remembered long after this year has passed, Row 1: M. Lotano, C. Van Dyk, C. Spagnoletti, E. Bog danski, J.

This sophomore year finds many members of the class actively engaged in the activities of clubs and organizations such as, Mortar and Pestle, Newman Club, APhA, and the Student Christian Association. Throughout the year, the Class of I960 has both received as well as given much, academically and socially to the college, and hopes to continue along these lines: so that we will be prepared to enter into our profession upon the attainment of our goal—pharmacists.

OUR FRESHMEN With our brightly shined shoes and our professional dress, we the Class of 1961 entered the portals of Albany College of Pharmacy to commence our future as Pharmacists. To us it was more than just the beginning of our ambition, it was a transition period between our high school and college life. This transitional period is one of the biggest gaps to overcome. To help bridge this expanse we found guidance, friendship, and patience extended to us by the members of the other classes and faculty. For this, we express our sincere gratitude to them. Once establishing our feet on dry ground, we began to express our vitality and spirit to the college community. Our first endeavor was exhibited in the field of sports, when one of our classmates was Row 1: D. Reese, W. Smith, F. Smith, I. Sheier, S. Mc- Namara, M. Strong, N. Paulin (Class Secretary), S.

CLASS OF 1961 chosen to represent us on the varsity basketball team. Other members of our class showed their capabilities by writing for the Mortar and Pestle , by becoming cheerleaders, and by participating in several of the other extra-curricular activities offered by the college. To us, it was a year of growing up, making our own decisions, and planning our future life. It was a wonderful and exciting year filled with new and varied experiences, and it is our sincere desire to have our succeeding years at ACP as successful and meaningful. The Class of 1961 should like to wish the graduating class success and prosperity in their future endeavors. Row 1: H. Goldstein, R. Kennedy, T. Emmer, G. Campese, C. Feiner, E. Karmo, P. Cristo, M.

THE DIAMOND JUBILEE WING When school resumed this fell, ,the present classes at Albany College of Phar- macy; received the distinctior, of .being first to use the Diamond Jubilee Wing. On October 13, 19S7, the wing was dedicated to Arthur S. Wardle, president of the • Board; of Trustees. jfl The wing is composed of two floors and a basement'containing lockers. The first floor is devoted to a lecture hall and cafeteria. The Second is occupied by the iphysfes and Anatomy iabs and their respective offices. The much enlarged'cafeteria With modern equipment provides more adequate service, bid still maintains the very moderate prices. The cafeteria staff is now able to Offer a greater variety of dishes, and the atmosphere is more conducive to pleas- ure” nd gdod companionship white eating, ; Due to the fact that the Physics lab is now geared to accommodate two to three students per group instead of the old arrangement of four to five, it can pro- vide an increase in !ab: efficiency and student participation. Each lab table is fur- nished with compressed air, running water, A.C. and D.C. Power. There are shop facilities for proper maintenance of equipment and a site for the development of new experiments. With; this increase in space and improvement in equipment, the •future classes will receive more diversified and far ranging experiments. As a result of an expected increase in enrollment and the forthcoming five year program, the physics lab. will provide a home for Physical Pharmacy, which will probably be offered as an elective. The students at Albany College of Pharmacy can be proud to have one of the finest Physics labs in the country available to them. With the opening of the Anatomy lab, a great tradition at Albany College of Pharmacy was broken. The brisk march, in the chill of the morn, to the cat morgue behind the old building, ended. The cats were usually found either frozen boardlike, or their odiforous stench was unbearable, which rendered the cat virtually useless. The new lab solved this problem by having a walk-in temperature regulated refrig- erator installed. The unpleasant odor of formaldehyde which often confronted guests in the old building is now eliminated by the exhaust system present in the entire new wing. The lecture hall is provided with better illumination, both electrical and natu- ral, as well as improved acoustics. It also enables more versatile demonstrations. The seats naturally lack the tradition of the benches in room 306. As future Pharmacists, we were very fortunate to have this modern edifice avail- able for the study of science. With an increased accent on Science in the education of the American student, this wing should prove to be an invaluable asset to the present and future classes at Albany College of Pharmacy. HOW DO YOU THINK . . . M. Verderame Assistant Prof, of Chemistry Answer: Missile development will have a very definite effect upon the future of pharmacy. I can see the ads now: For a smoother pick-up and go and less freight in flight, spike your dog's diet with the one and only Sputnik Vitamin Tablets fortified with Sominex. J. M. Lapetina Assistant Prof. Math, and Physics Answer: Assuming a purely speculative attitude it would appear that outer planetary travel would open new fields for pharmacy since human psysi- ology appears to be geared to pressures and temperatures of the earth rather than other planets. B. Dewell Associate Prof, of Pharmacy Answer: Pharmacy itself will be affected as it was by the discoveries of new drugs and introduction of new health problems after man reached the New World. New drugs will be sought and new uses for old drugs will be found. In the future a customer may ask not for Dramamine for a trip to Europe but for Drug x-2000 to permit his body to adjust itself to the new conditions of travel in outer space. i ' W. C. Gorham Prof, of Pharmacology Answer: Our advances into space will bring pharmacy back to the position it held 50 years ago. There will be few prepackaged drugs in stores on other planets. Pharmacists will again have to resort to using their skills for compounding and dispensing medicinals which they will make themselves since air express necessary for their delivery will be too expensive. M. Ewart Assistant Prof, of Chemistry Answer: It is unlikely that explorations into space will have a pronounced effect on pharmacy for a long time. There may be a need for pharmaceu- ticals which result from special problems of the space traveler, such as exposure to cosmic rays. There might also be a need for special packaged concentrated food preparations. It seems likely that the pharmaceutical needs of the space traveler will be supplied in pre-packaged form and not compounded in an establishment in space. However the effect on pharmacy as a whole is not likely to be any greater than the effect of explorations in the antarctic. 72 OUR MODERN • WILL EFFECT ♦ DAY ADVANCES INTO OUTER SPACE PHARMACY IN THE FUTURE? J. Dermody Freshman Answer: I feel that the great advancement in the scientific fields that is being undertaken will demand a similar advancement in medicine. New therapies and medicines will have to be discovered to take care of the uncommon dangers space explorers will be exposed to and pharmacists will be called on to handle these new therapeutic agents. R. Szymalak Senior Answer: Possibly with the event of space travel an entirely new field of drugs may be developed for use in outer space. The field of pharmacy will expand to meet these new demands along with advancements made into outer space. R. Doyle Sophomore Answer: I believe that the future of pharmacy will suffer now that the government is stressing the development of space exploration. This will divert future students from medical research and maintenance of public health. Pharmacy will have to obtain better methods to provide a chal- lenge and to entice students into our profession. M. Francis Junior Answer: It is my belief that the greatest effect of space exploration upon the profession of pharmacy will be felt in the field of pharmacology. The absorbtion, fate and excretion and therapeutic action of drugs will change. New problems will also be encountered as to the storage and preservation of many pharmaceutical preparations. G. O'Connell Senior Answer: The effects of space satellites and space travel on medicine and pharmacy will be far reaching and varied. With the development of many new drugs the pharmacist, especially those associated with the Air Force and other government agencies, will be expected to understand the action of these drugs and be able to advise physicians caring for space travelers on their use and administration. Drugs will have to be sought to overcome the boredom and mental fatigue encountered by the spacemen, thus push- ing pharmacy further ahead along with these new discoveries. 73 STUDENT COUNCIL This is the student government, the Student Council composed of the President and the Vice President of each class. The Chairman of our Council is Dexter Spaulding, the President of the Senior Class. Our Secretary is Sue Nicholson, Vice President of the Freshman Class. The Council governs the appropriation of money to the vari- ous school activities and organizations, chooses yearbook editors, controls the sending of buses to basketball games, the purchasing of ping pong equipment and often, necessary items for the lounges. The Council is elected by the students and is supported whole heartedly by them. They pre- vented our chairman from being impeached this year by letting him join the WABS. We, the members of the Student Council, salute Dr. O'Brien for his faithful and wise leader- ship this year. We only hope to be able to carry away with us the knowledge he has instilled in us. Seated: R. Doyle, M. Gigliotti, S. Nicholson (Secretary), W. Dobbins. Standing: M. Loudis, P. Murray, D. Spaulding (Chairman). 76 MORTAR AND PESTLE Row 1: B. Goldstein, S. Grube (Associate Editor), J. Garrity (Editor), R. Weisberg (Sports Editor), Prof. Dewell, D. Seifert. Standing: R. Pomeranti, D. Barber, D. Baylis, B. Seglin, W. Ficlcie. The Mortar and Pestle is the official student publication of the Albany College of Pharmacy. The paper is published four times yearly, and was this year headed by editor Jim Garrity. For those stu- dents who have journalistic tendencies the paper serves as a source at which they may apply their skills and talents. The Mortar and Pestle is widely read and the interest extends beyond the student body. The student activities are precisely reported. Other topics in- clude professional subjects, humor, and human interest. Pho- tographs which emphasize the various topics add color to this important part of Campus Life, at A.C.P. The staff offers its thanks to the camera enthusiasts, who have pro- vided the vital part of the paper. The members of the Mortar and Pestle staff offer their gratitude to the faculty advisor, Professor Dewell, and to Dean O'Brien whose guidance, suggestions and contributions have integrated the paper each year to its successful ac- ceptance. 77 THE AMERICAN PHARMACEUTICAL OFFICERS J. Chiarella (President), N. Welch (Secretary), Prof. DeNuzzo, K. Zobel (Treasurer), F. O'Toole (Vice-President). PROF. DeNUZZO Advisor The A.Ph.A. has been an integral part of the professional realm of A.C.P. for nine years, since 1949. Membership is on a voluntary basis and unrestricted to any class. It is, indeed, the desire of the student branch to promote 100% membership. It aims to strengthen the profession of pharmacy by better preparing its student pharmacists to meet and deal with the constant obstacles arising in the various phases of pharmacy today. The Association offers an instructive and informative journal to its members; whereby, they may learn of the new pharmaceuticals, current ideas and progress in re- tail pharmacies, as well as, hospital pharmacies and industry. The student branch is only a small segment of the parent National Association, but none the less, a very important one. It is in the student branches in pharmacy colleges like ours across the nation that pertinent problems are discussed and patterns for pro- cedure formulated. It is up to us, the future pharma- cists, to set goals and strive to attain them if our profession is to assume the proper status in the com- munity. Although the student branch is a professional or- ganization, with meetings geared to the vast scope of pharmacy, its members are students; and therefore, other fields of endeavor are undertaken throughout the year. The officers for the year took their 78 SSOCI ATION STUDENT BRANCH respective places in September under the faculty guidance and supervision of Professor De Nuzzo. In addition to a membership drive, meetings were sched- uled and plans proceeded for the Annual Spaghetti Dinner. Of great interest to all students, especially those desiring hospital pharmacy, was the meeting which took place at the Albany Medical Center and included a panel discussion followed by a tour of the hospital pharmacy. A Student Forum, covering the timely issues in pharmacy today, was presented by a group of students. Plans have already been made for the election of new officers for next year and the banquet at which time these students will receive official installation. And now, the Student Branch of the American Pharmaceutical Association at A.C.P. would like to extend congratulations and best wishes to the mem- bers of the graduating class of 1958 in whatever field they may choose. 79 ii NEWMAN CLUB Row 1: D.

The Newman Club provides the Roman Catholic students with the necessary religious aspects of their college training. It was organized here, at A.C.P., about seven years ago. This organization is the bridge connecting ethical and moral principals with the practical application of Pharmacy and Medical Technology. Through the Newman Club, the ever-arising problems are discussed, the ever-present questions are answered under the guiding hand of its moderator. This phase of education is of primary import- ance to the Catholic student. The many activities of the Newman Club are both religious and social. This year the Pre Cana Conferences were again held, and met with the same enthusiasm and response as before. A most interesting 80 Row 1: M. Cepiel, B. Deinhardt, S. McNamara, J. Glassbrenner, E.

On the social side, a dance with the student nurses from the Newman Club of Albany Hospital took place in December. Also in December, some of the members attended the Testamonial Dinner for His Excellency, Bishop Maginn. A combination of the two was in the form of the annual Communion Breakfast held with the area Newman Clubs. A successful year was rounded out as plans were made for Pharmacy's participation in the May Day Parade. The Newman Club owes its successful year to the unceasing ef- forts of its moderator, Father Fitzgerald, and to the capable direction of its president, John McCarthy. OK, WHO AISSEO THE NEWIARN CLUB MEETING 81 CAMERA CLUB Seated: A. Vententbergs, I. Kowalik, Prof. Reed, D. Baylis, B. Rapowitz, P. Zito, S. Goldstein. Standing: V. Cozzarelli, J. Smith, R. Rittershausen, J. Lievestro, E. Trnka, D. VanEtten, I. Rhein- gold, R. Weisberg. The year of 1957-58 has been very encouraging for the Camera Club. More than ever before the Camera Club has strived to serve the school in its photographic needs. As in the past, we will keep that light burning over the dark-room door in the interests of A.C.P. We take particular pride in making this Alembic Pharmakon pos- sible and in supplying the Mortar and Pestle with consistently good material. The Camera Club offers instruction for beginners in photography through the cooperation of some of our more experienced members, as well as field trips, films and contests. The Camera Club offers its gratitude to Prof. Reed for his generous guidance in all of our endeavors. 82 STUDENT CHRISTIAN ASSOC The A.C.P. Student Christian Association is one of many similar organi- zations on the campus of nearly every college or university in this country and abroad. It is part of a world wide movement uniting the students in fifty-six countries under the World's Student Christian Federation. The A.C.P. association was organized two years ago and, although it is a new and yet young organization, it grew in stature this year and looks to be one of the College's leading and most active organizations. The S.C.A. seeks as its purpose a widespread, intercolegiate fellowship of men and women within the Protestant tradition who are seeking to know God and who are sharing with the world-wide student Christian com- munity the commitment to serve Him through worship, study and responsible participation in society. A successful year of interesting and provocative meetings discussing, among other subjects, the living religions of the world such as Islam and Hinduism gave us all a greater insight into these religions. Enjoyable ac- tivities such as a Fall and Spring picnic and participation in a banquet at- tended by representatives of many area S.C.A. groups were attained this year. One of the highlights of the year for the organization was the original and very successful square dance held in conjunction with the S.C.A. from the Albany Medical Center College of Nursing. Credit must be given to Pete Hempstead, President, and Janice Imson, Secretary, for their successful leadership. Our sincere thanks are extended to Rev. Hughes for his valuable guidance and to Dr. Ewart and his wife for their loyal attendance and interest in the activities of our organization. Row 1: C. English, T. Emmer, A. Ventenbergs, C.

It is composed of two delegates from each fraternity and sorority, with the Dean as official advisor. The primary function of the I.F.C. is to promote a harmonious union between all the fraternal organizations. All rules and policies aside from the primary rules of each fraternity, are set up by this council. This past year the council held a very successful I.F.C. dance which served as a get-acquainted night for new students at the college. The success of this council rests solely in the generous and cooperative attitude of the individual fraternal organizations of A.C.P. This type of unison and working together has served to strengthen the inter- and intrafraternal bonds of each or- ganization. Let us be thankful that in this troubled and worried world of I.C.B.M. and Sputnik, that an organization such as the I.F.C. can meet in an atmosphere of liberty and serve to strengthen our dedication to freedom and to the dignity of man.

Kappa Psi Pharmaceutical Fraternity was founded seventy-nine years ago and was the first pharmacy fraternity to join the ranks of the professional fraternities. Today Kappa Psi not only has the distinction of being the first professional fraternity in pharmacy, but also maintains the largest membership of all the pharmaceutical fraternities with more than twenty thousand members. These members, many of whom are leaders in the profession, are found in every state in the United States and in many foreign countries. Our Chapter, Beta Delta, was chartered in the year 1910 and has been an active part of the national organi- zation since that time. During this past year we have enjoyed a series of fine professional and social functions. A Province Assembly was held at the University of Rhode Island at which time Vice-Regent Herbert Gog- gins was elected to represent the Province at the Na- tional Convention and Professor Albert M. White was 87 Continued on page 89 Row 1: A. Andreone, W. Finn, W. Ficke, F. Oliva, G. Doblsh, C. Stowell, R. Davis, A. Nicolella, R. Casler, W. Amsden, R. Matthews. Row 2: W. Hoppy, E. Leighton, R.

The twenty-ninth Na- tional Grand Council Convention was held in St. Louis, Missouri during the latter part of December. The dele- gates representing Beta Delta Chapter were James Bol- linger, Warren Ficke, James Garrity and Regent Wes Barnard. Among the many successful social events of the year were a freshman smoker, the Sweetheart Dinner Dance, the annual banquet and spring picnic. We, the Brothers of Beta Delta Chapter, wish to thank our fac- ulty advisor, Professor Lauren R. Hanmer, for his excel- lent guidance throughout the year. The members of Kappa Psi Fraternity extend to the graduating class of 1958 a wish for continued success in their future endeavors in the profession of pharmacy. 89 LAMBDA KAPPA SIGMA The Beta Chapter of Lambda Kappa Sigma forms an important part of our extra-curricular activities at A.C.P. The sorority has been in existence since 1918 and we have been widening our interests every year. The year began with the sale of China Mugs in late September. The third annual Mother-Daughter Banquet was held on October 28. The best so far!! We had our first tea for the wives of the faculty and married students on Jan- uary 12th. We all had a wonderful time and hope that this is just the first of many to come. Initiation time has come and gone again this year. To the Freshmen a word of advice . . . Don't get mad; get even. The formal initiation was held on April the 16th. We wish to extend our congratulations to the Class of 1958 and we hope that you attain every success that you reach for. Row 1: V. Gritsch, E.

The Alpha Theta Chapter of the Phi Delta Chi Fraternity came into existence at A.C.P. in 1931. It was felt at the time that a need was present for another fraternity, which would serve as a source of loyal opposition to the already existing fraternities. In this capacity it has served very well. After a period of inactivation during World War II, it has reorganized into a very efficient and aggressive rivalry for the many honors bestowed upon fraternal organizations. What it has lacked in its minority of members it has made up in individualistic aggressiveness. No person is admitted to the Phi Delta Chi Fraternity unless he exhibits a sincere pro-fraternal and Phi Delta Chi attitude. Our members are admitted on (one) the maintenance of a quality point average of 1.0 or better and (two) on the proposed prognosis of the merits which an indi- vidual can bestow upon himself, his fraternity and his college. The past year has seen a diversion from the old and the institution of the new by which we have presented one dinner meeting a month, a Christmas Cocktail Dance and a Clam- bake, which will be presented this spring. The latter is begin- ning to shape up in what looks to be one of the most successful and joyous functions to be presented at A.C.P. As the books are closed for the 1957-58 fraternal year, we feel that it is only fitting and proper to tender up a great deal of thanks and appreciation to the members of Phi Delta Chi for a job well done. Never before in the history of the fraternity has so much been accomplished, by so few, and with such success. Let us hope that the future holds as much success as the past. 92 mlmMm y$w S' '; RHO PI PHI Row 1: C. Whitestone, A. Fishman, J. Rosenberg, E. Cohen, B. Rapowitz (Recording Scribe), B.

We distributed over a hundred canisters in pharmacies throughout the Capital District, and collected many hundreds of dollars for this worthwhile charity. We had the pleasure of attending The Albany County Phar- maceutical Association meetings and also in pre- senting to the college a plaque in memory of a Rope, Albert Fishelman, on which will be in- scribed the names of the Valedictorians. We also awarded two keys for Scholastic Excellence. At our dinner in November, Dr. Rudolph Del Siacco spoke on Doctor-Pharmacist Relationships. At another affair in February, Clem Becker of Mc- Kesson Robbins spoke to us about retail selling. Of course on a social level, our 12th annual Campus Queen Dance in March was an outstand- ing success as over 130 couples attended. This was preceeded by the Meet Russell Sage Party in October, and later followed by the annual Din- ner Dance and Picnic in May. The year would never be complete without con- ventions, and for this we sent twelve men to Syra- cuse in November, and another contingent to the Concord Hotel for the National Convention in June. With these activities we feel an outstanding and successful year has been completed. The only con- solation upon our graduation is that we leave be- hind younger men who will lead the Fraternity and promote its ideals in the future. 95 COACH AL W FRANK VIVIANI OHEN OUR WINNING SEASON King's College Hampden College Castleton State North Adams State Hampden College Castleton State Windham College U' Conn., Hartford VW� «nl s cw«y' second clinches U' Conn., Waterbury Pace College Windham College U' Conn., Waterbury U' Conn., Hartford YlViani's 17 and Giruzzi's 13 J paces 6fh victory 13 STRAIGHT m s lb pts. and feriruzzi s I second half fops 9th win.

Cassidy, P. Cristo, S. Israel. This year's Varsity Cheerleaders at A.C.P. were eight in number instead of six; thus a stronger squad of cheerleaders was had. The girls who led the fans in the cheers included Nancy Paulin, Phyllis Cristo, Sharon Israel, Lois Cassidy, Ellie Bogdanski, Kay Zobel and the co-captains Jeannie Scully and Kerry Cam- pion. The girls devoted much of their time to practicing until they had the cheers down pat. Among the many things the cheer- leaders took part in or planned was a pep rally, featuring a basketball game between the Team and the girls of A.C.P. Of course the Team played with boxing gloves and thus were under great handicap. The cheerleaders deserve as much praise as any other group who helped make this a successful season. 103 INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL 1956-57 W. Barnard, L. Maggy, L. Dwyer, J. Chiarella, M. Williams. Here we go again—for the third straight year Len Dwyer led his squad to the Intramural Championship of A.C.P. This year, however, was even easier than the two previous years. The team consists of Len Dwyer, Leo Maggy, Chuck O'Conner, Mark Williams, Joe Chiarella, Bob Shockley, Wes Barnard. They went undefeated with nary a close game. At times, they were behind at halftime but class, experience, and bench depth of their players won out. Here's hoping again for 1958 when this squad will be Seniors. INTRAMURAL SOFTBALL 1957 Row 1: W. Barnard, D. Fellows, S. Budoff, E. Cohen, F. O'Toole, R. Comanzo. Row 2: R. Femia, R. Brendis, J. Chiarella, T. Chiffy. The softball season turned out to be quite a surprise. The Jokers, captained by Elliot Cohen, came out of the blue to capture the crown. The odds-on favorites at the start of the season were the Seniors. In the first game of the season, the Seniors, true to form, dumped the Jokers, 7-1. But, then the reckoning came, as the Jokers just held on to a play-off berth at the season's close. In the first game, the Seniors, hampered by injuries, were massacred by the Jokers, 18-8. In the final championship game, they squeezed out a 3-2 victory over the Tigers. 104 ATHLETIC COMMISSION Row 1: Coach White, B. Rapowitz (Chairman). Row 2: F. Oliva, R. Weisberg, J. Goldwin, P. Murray ,P. Zito, A. Kramer. The A.C.P. Athletic Commission under the direction of Coach Al White and the Chairmanship of Burt Rapowitz deserves a rousing round of cheers for a job well done. The main activities included on the program of this commission are basketball, softball and ping-pong. The selection of Burt Rapowitz as chairman was undoubtedly a very good choice. Burt devoted many hours to the program of this commission. He was responsible for transportation arrangements, publicity, charts and records for the team, plus many other things. The most important of his jobs has been in arousing school spirit, and this Burt did very well. Frank Oliva, manager of the basketball team, has fulfilled his job well beyond a doubt. With his partner, Art Kramer, basketball games and practices have been run with efficiency and effectiveness. The other members of the commission, Pete Murray, Pete Zito, Ron Weisburg, Joe Goldwin have been very instrumental in helping the chairman carry out the program set up. At any moment when asked to do a job, each of these men devoted their time to fulfilling the job. Each member of the commission should be proud and satisfied with himself; and to the members not graduating Keep up the good work. 105 CLASS In September, 1954, the class of 1958 landed their spaceship at Albany College of Pharmacy. Consisting of many embryo pharmacists and four Med. Techs., we elected Ed Pasquerella, President; Ed Moulton, Vice-President; Jane Hanson, Secre- tary-Treasurer; and Anne Hamann, Historian, to steer our course for the first year. During this all important Freshman year, many of the class joined Fraternities and the Sorority and other social organizations and several of our members, includ- ing Rock Siruzzi, Dick Magic and Jim Skeales were on the basketball team. Cheer- ing them on to victory, Jane Hanson and Toni Mastroianni represented our class on the cheerleading squad. By June, we finally succeeded in conquering Qualitative Analysis, Biology, Math, English Speeches and Pham. Arith. before they conquered us. We vowed never to forget that Syrupus Pruni Virginianae is syrup of wild cherry. Many of us made good use of the newly completed New York State Thruway for those frequent week- end trips home. Upon returning to A.C.P. in Sept., 1955, as Sophomores, we really began to feel as if we were old pros at col- lege life. After a well earned summer vacation we were well prepared to tackle our first encounter with benzene rings, cats, slide rules, J. P. Remington, Shakespeare and last, but not least, is that our bell. With able guidance of Ed Moulton, President; Frank Pete Hempstead, Veep; Jane Hanson, Sec- retary-Treasurer; and Anne Hamann, Historian, we had a very successful Frosh-Soph Dance. To our delight, Anne Hamann was elected Campus Queen this year. This year, we had the great pleasure of helping to celebrate the Diamond Jubi- lee and taking part in this important event in the History of A.C.P. 1956 saw the beginning of the new wing and as upperclassmen we eagerly awaited its completion. After a spirited election, we chose Chet Fox, President; John McCarthy, Vice-President; Warren Doetsch, Historian; and Janice Imson, Sec- retary to lead us in our Junior year. Despite analytical balances, cognosy cards, debits and credits, white mice, dusting lab and gentian violet solutions before formal dances, we still found time to order our class rings. We soon learned that although alcohol is a non-equable stimu- lant in small doses, it is primarily a CNS depressant. Joe Chiarella, Ted O'Toole, Pete Hempstead, and John McCarthy from our class represented A.C.P. at the A.Ph.A. National Convention in New York City. We still managed to maintain the Intramural Basketball Championship for the third A.C.P.

With the coming of May, we saw the event of a successful Junior Prom at the Shaker Ridge Country Club and it can truly be said that a good time was had by all. At last it was September 1957 and we returned as almighty seniors. Many changes had taken place this year. We soon began to feel at home in the new wing and it didn't take long to become accustomed to the new ruling concerning pro- fessional attire. To lead us through this very important year, we elected Dexter Spaulding, President; Win Dobbins, Vice-President; Anne Hamann, Historian; and Ted O'Toole, Secretary-Treasurer. We learned how to find an incompatability in every Rx and by the way, what is the dose of Potassium Arsenite Solution? We found out the value of prima-facia evidence and that if a product could not be found in Krantz and Carr it could always be picked up from the N.N.R. To our amazement, the speed of one of our courses seemed to have in- creased over the summer from 45 words per minute to 78 words per minute. But, alas, our chemistry unknowns still re- main unknown. This year saw the establishment of the W.A.B.S. (Wed. afternoon Bowl- ing Society) under the leadership of President J. J. Putnam. With six seniors on the basketball team, A.C.P. realized the most successful season in the his- Giruzzi, Ralph Comanzzo, Frank Viviani, Elliott Cohen, Sy Budoff, Jim Skeales and the rest of the team. One of the biggest incompatabilities we encountered this year was a physical incompatibility caused by an excess of a white precipitate from the sky. A shake well label would not do and the only remedy was to close the school for two days. The Mortar and Pestles were the best ever this year under the direction of Jim Garrety and the A.Ph.A. had a very successful year during the presidency of Joe Chiarella. Among the most noteworthy events of this year was the Senior trip to Parke Davis and Eli Lilly, second only to June 12th and Graduation. Although we have played only a small role in the history of A.C.P., we are proud to have been a part of such important events as the celebration of the Dia- mond Jubilee, the building of the new wing and the establishment of professional attire by pharmacy students. We leave this, our Alma Mater, with fond memories and with this thought, may future classes live up to the aims and traditions of the class of '58. tory of the college, thanks to Rock A.C.P.

In this age of Sputniks and Explorers the role of the pharmacist in civic affairs cannot be over- emphasized. As well as concentrating on their own profession, the pharmacist of today must co-operate with the medical profession and other allied health professions. In this era of uncertainty in world affairs, it is more important than ever that the pharma- cist take an active part in the local civil defense program. Should a civil defense emergency occur, pharmacists must be trained and willing to assist physicians and nurses. To aid in advancing the pharmaceutical profession, it is imperative that the pharmacist belong to the A.Ph.A., as well as local pharmaceutical associations. How- ever, this is not enough. He must broaden his interests to include those organizations which bring him in contact with other professions and help him to better serve his fellow citizens. He should help as a citizen with the parking and traffic problems in his town not only as an interested businessman but also with the interests of the rest of society at heart. He should aid in solving community problems and not leave them for someone else to solve just because the particular issues at hand do not pertain directly to pharmacy. The pharmacist is unlike many other professional persons in that he is in closer personal contact with the public. He assists many people each day and serves the same persons frequently and, therefore, customers look upon him as an influential friend. As a result of this, he becomes well acquainted with his customers and they seek his advice on practical everyday problems which are far removed from his professional services. In this age of the atom, many scientists are concentrating on capturing the power of the atom for peaceful means. Pharmacists may take a course in handling radioactive elements at Oakridge, Tenn., and, thereby, serve humanity and advance the pharmaceutical profession. Radioactive drugs must be handled by specially trained technicians in hospitals and this course would be of particular value to the hospital pharmacist. After finishing his formal education, the pharmacist faces the responsibility of keeping up to date on new drugs and methods of compounding. He owes it to his customers to read current professional literature and attend seminars. In a profes- sion which is enlarging as rapidly as pharmacy one can never truly consider his education complete. The pharmacist is often one of the most highly educated persons in the community and, therefore, is looked upon as a leader in civic affairs. This education can be put to work through government or social organizations, service clubs, boards of education and re- ligious activities. Because the pharmacist is an educated man he occupies an essential position in society. The decision to fulfill or neglect that position is his alone and will determine whether he will bring credit or discredit to his profession. We, the Senior Class of 1958, realizing these responsibilities, wiiI strive to fulfill our obliga- tions to our God, to our country and to our profession to the best of our ability. 108 IM H f� fJK s ' Am.- '• m ACKNOWLEDGMENTS It is usual for the editor of the yearbook to make note of the many different people who have helped in producing the Alembic Pharmakon. This year, however, I feel it would be even more fitting if the following people, having done so very much, were merely to acknowledge me, having done so little: DEAN O'BRIEN, who has bent-over-backwards” to solve the administrating and scheduling difficulties which arise in putting a yearbook together. Indeed, when- ever advice was sought—and this was often—his time was as if it were the edi- tor's own. In spite of all his many obligations and duties, Dr. O'Brien always gave freely of his valuable time and experience. PROF. BINKLEY, who has given his few free moments to encourage and guide us. He has helped the staff accept and reject ideas most wisely, while never hinder- ing what we have done. MISS GLAVIN, whose busy hours as Registrar have been undermined by the per- petual motion of the staff in getting supplies and information. THE FACULTY, who have scheduled and rescheduled at the staff's request and who have borne most graciously the discourtesy of having people leave class to take pictures. JOE CHIARELLA, who, as associate editor, has done everything possible to better the yearbook. He has been willing to go anywhere to get anything that would aid the staff. BARRY GOLDSTEIN, whose excellent and artistic photographs, as well as his long hours of mechanical work, have made this Pharmakon whatever it may be. In fact, there would have been no Book without him. JANICE IMSON, who has been on 24 hour call for any staff assignment that arises unexpectedly. Her literary work has been a model to all of us. THE BUSINESS MANAGERS, who have given completely of their time, effort, and gasoline to make this book financially possible. THE ART STAFF, who have produced many fine cartoons at a sacrifice of time and energy. These represent an indispensible part of the yearbook. THE SPORTS STAFF, who have worked hard and independently to see the fruits of their section ripen. THE UNNAMED, who, while too numerous to mention, have been invaluable in their service to the staff. THE STAFF, who have accepted the work cheerfully and diligently. Mine has merely been the task of the coordination of material and the distribution of the problems. In this en- deavor, all of these associations have been most pleas- urable. BOB WEISMAN, Editor performed it most I 10 JOHN L. THOMPSON, SONS CO. Wholesale Druggists RIVER STREET, TROY, N.
