LEO ALBERT MARTIN “Spike” 263 Averill Avenue St. Boniface Spike” is a popular student among the seniors. He aspires to be a baseball and a basketball player and, to a certain extent, has succeeded. He has successfully held the coveted position of baseball manager. When Spike is not busy in class, he is pounding the typewriter either for himself or for someone else'a interest. If he continues his business-like ways, one ran see nothing but success and prosperity in the future for Spike. FREDERICK AI Ol'STINK MKRLAU “Fred” 256 Oxford Street Sacred Heart Fred's presence in a senior meeting insures a humorous time. His sense of humor makes him a favorite with both the fellows ami the fair sex. Just ask Fred to see his diary. He carries on many classes at Weber’s ami can generally be found there during school hours. Chemistry seems to have a strange appeal for him and he puts much work on this subject. This, combined with his love of dancing, makes him a scientific dancer.

JOSEPH ROBERT McGRAIL Hob 837 South C'linton Street St. Boniface Bob in one of the most popular fellow in the school. Him quiet demeanor nnd winning personality have endeared him to his fellow Aq ui ni a ns. He can generally be seen on the corner at Weber's having a little tussle with Hill O’Reilly. His manly form in an Aauinas banket hall uniform excited the admiration of all the Maroon and White rooters. Aside from his fine work on the basketball court, he has shown some real ability in his classes, nnd we expect that Aquinas will have turned out another fine man in Robert McGrail. His literary ability was well-evidenced in the masterpieces he composetl during his high school course nnd he is also a cartoonist of no mean ability He was a hard worker for all school activities and his school spirit we respect and admire. If he puts the same spirit into hia life work, we know that Robert McGrail will be a great success. ROBERT FREDERICK McGRAW Hob 271 I tart mouth Street Nasareth Hall Academy Hercules may have been a Roman but Bob resales in Rochester. Do not infer though that Bob is entirely a man of site He came to Aquinas in 21 ami is carrying off his diploma in three years. This is really an accomplishment Imm-uusc in spite of his excellent qualities Bob enjoys the blissfulness of the absence of books. Bob does not talk the loudest but his popularity surely stands out. Wishing Bob success is a waste of time for he will get it anyway. ROY FRANCIS McMahon Mae 102 Flower City Bark Barred Heart '.l ui ' a feather anti a chief a rotl.

His studies also felt the ra-diance of hin loyalty, he plugged at them, ever eon fide nt of ultimate success. JOHN FRANCIS MOYNIliAN Heinie'' 85 Brayer Street Holy Apostles’ John is a firm believer in silenre during reritations and when in the preeenre of girls lie does, however, occasion-ally speak during a recitation but the spell of the fair sex is too great; he utters not a word. He is a very food student and we an- confident that he will succeed in life. As a cheerleader he can’t be beaten; even Solomon, in all his glory, has nothing on this fair-haired youth when he is leading the cheers. Heinie is a lender of the Hermit Club and is very popular about the school. He is as yet unknown to fame and fortune but his hard work will bring him to the front. Go to it. Heinie!
