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.

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.

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
