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

 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

 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
