Put me in the gamef' JOHN R. NEALON THOMAS F. O'REILLY ROBERT H. OVERFIELD in his second year. Too light for athletics, John has confined his talents to the classroom. He is usually at the top of the honor roll. ANTHONY D. PENZONE Better known as The Streak, because of his tardiness, Tony jokingly admits that his favorite subject is study period. A whiz at basket- ball, he plans to join the Merchant Marine. Page Twenty-six nevertheless found time to clip off the mile for the track team. He also had a man-sized job in handling ticket sales for the various athletic events. MARIO P. PORCHETTI Pro's delicate stomach, his boisterous laughter, even his name, and his football playing have all been the objects of the pleasant, easy- going jibes tossed around by his classmates. Bob's merry laughter is often heard. Curly red hair and a super-up Chevy have proved invaluable in promoting his social activ- ities. t'Easy going seems to be his password and 'twhy worry? his motto. RICHARD T. PRENDERGAST Dick is one of the gayer members of the class. He is also an athlete, having participated in football, base- ball, and track. He came to us from Bayside, N. Y., in 1942.

This year he has served as associate edi- tor of the Aquinian. f' 2, Q 1 f Q 3x A iq While at school Hank seems to wear a perpetual frown, but removed from this ele- ment he is quite congenial.
