The “Virtuoso” of A.C.P., Bob worked diligently for the establishment of our now highly successful Glee Club. The iristmas assembly will long be remembered by all music rers. Bob's other claim to stardom is that of being the editor of e Mortar and Pestle. His timely editorials proved both en- jhtening and entertaining. Being very active in many extra-curricular endeavors, Bob 11 always be remembered for the fine job of acting he did the Kenmore in the Senior production. Graduate work in pharmacology is the main ingredient in )b’s future plans. Robert Donald Casler Syracuse, N. Y.

Jack ranks high in the class scholastically and socially, and his work with the Glee Club deserves much praise. A veteran of the Army Signal Corps, he has served in Cali- fornia and Japan. Following his discharge, Jack took Joyce to the altar, marking the “fin” of his bachelor days. In the senior year, he was instrumental in the formation of our Glee Club. Jack especially enjoys playing the piano and did a fine job as Glee Club accompanist. His ability was dis- played in the Christmas assembly. Also in the senior year, he served as pharmacology lab. assistant, and will always be remembered for his “little red pencil.” Jack’s future plans have not been definitely decided. 25

Walter Edward Byrne Troy, N. Y. Kapa Psi 3, 4: Newman Club 1,2, 3, 4; A.Ph.A. 1, 2, 3, 4; Intramural Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4. Walt acquired the nickname of “Rock” shortly alter his arrival at Pharmacy, and there is little doubt at the reason for this. Walt could usually be found with O’Neill and Palladino, the other two members of the “Big Three” from Troy, dis- cussing the latest road conditions. Certainly known as one of the hardest workers in our class, Walt could always be located during lunch period in a spare classroom getting in a little extra studying time. “The” day for Walt will be June 27, when he plans to take marriage vows with Gail Hunter. A bundle of energy, this Med. Tech, student devoted much of her time to cheer the Panthers on to successive victories. Her Junior year, in which she ranked as co-captain of the squad, saw Kerry stimulate a “go-team-go” attitude at A.C.P. games which carried the team to an almost-perfect season. A cloud of exhaust fumes or a cautious pedestrian was a tell- tale sign of “Ker” and her Ford convert with the famous KC-15 license plate. Before settling down to a work schedule in the field of path- ology, Kerry plans on seeing a bit of the other side of the globe. Kerry Campion Albany, N, Y. Newman Club 1, 2, 3, 4, Secretary 3; Cheerleader 2, 3, 4, Co-Captain 3; Lambda Kappa Sigma 2, 3, 4.

The fact that “Ches” came from the Bay State was a distinc- tion in itself, especially in a school composed mainly of New York Staters. Danny was further distinguished by the acquisi- tion of his blue Jaguar in his Junior year. Each weekend in the Spring and Fall, when a road race was on, Danny would bomb out for Lime Rock, Watkins Glen, or some place to lend a hand officiating. Will we ever forget the roar of that “blue bomb” as Ches barreled out of the parking lot? For the future, Danny is thinking about a career in medi- cine, following family tradition. Daniel Joseph Chesanow Great Barrington, Mass. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Rho Pi Phi 2, 3, 4. Curtis E. Childs Wellsville, N. Y. A.Ph.A. 3, 4; Glee Club 4. “Curt” flew over to A.C.P. by way of Wellsville, N. Y. and the U. S. Air Force, to join us the hard way, as a freshman. One of the quieter colleagues of the class of ’59, Curt was a charter member of the clan of veterans in our midst. He will be remembered as a good student and a really sin- cere guy, who lent his booming bass to our fondling glee club in the senior year. When armed with his sheepskin in June, Curt will leave the teeming metropolis to commence practicing in retail pharmacy.
