tThtr Tret r LANG, WILLIAM A. Bill KRESS, HAROLD J. 300 Thurston Road Hal St. Peters Paul’s School A flashy third sacker in baseball and a smashing fullback on the gridiron yet meek and gentle in the classroom—this can be truly said of Hal. He is Ray White’s companion in wickedness and is always ready with a good joke. Up and at ’em, Hal. 3 Mozart Place St. Michael’s School “Old Faithful” Bill, when he is not at work in school, is laboring elsewhere. The application of his energy ranges from managing a bowling league to writing for a newspaper. The world of letters is assured of a deserving member when Bill has developed himself. Goodbye, Bill, and don’t forget to write. MARKS, THOMAS F. Tom MAHER, AUGUSTINE F. 146 Linden St. “Gus’’ Immaculate Concep- tion School Gus has been with us but a short time yet he has won the friendship of the entire class by his goodnaturedness. Sorry to say, however, Gus takes his studies seriously, a sad mistake and he is even reported to study at home. However, our best wishes go with him even if he does burn the midnight oil. 44 Lenox Street St. Monica’s School A sturdy, well-set lad, that’s Tom. Three years with both our baseball and basketball teams have made him a rugged athlete. With whimsical smile, he likes to listen to others, but when things go wrong, Tom, cool as an iceberg, steps forward to adjust them. In games and life, steadfast Tom perseveres to a victorious end. seventeen

A TThe Tre'tc- GRAY', ALEXANDER Alex Rush, N. Y. Rush Union School Alex comes from the wilds of Rush, but he always manages to get here. Studies never seem to bother him and he never bothers them. Alex is the leading light of the chemistry class when there is one. His line never fails to cause a laugh in class or out, and because of this he is always welcome wherever he goes. HASENAUER, GERARD J. “Jerry” 57 Trafalgar Street St. Peters Paul’s School Gerard is usually hard to find, being hidden behind his books. This accomplishment seems in danger of extinction in the A. I. R. so he is to be congratulated. Such studious habits do not prevent his interest in school affairs or in spreading a joke. Although quiet he is not. gloomy and is liked by everyone. HURLEY, LEO A. 42 Doran Street Leo” Immaculate Conception School Leo is a burner of the midnight oil. Long after school is dismissed, he may be found diligently working out the complex problems of intermediate. However this strenuous tax on his brain has not affected Leo’s disposition, which is very pleasant. He greatly enjoys any sort of fun and is always with us in every undertaking. KENNEDY, JOSEPH P. 52 Atkinson St. “Joe Cathedral Grammar School Behold our modest court-leader! Joe, as everyone knows, is a star court performer. His achievements in other fields, however, are numerous. He is a pool player of no mean ability and besides is well versed in the manly art of self-defense. A grateful student body is behind his rush to fame. sixteen

A TThir Tv'etc MAYER, LEONARD M. 47 Avenue A. “Len St. Michael’s School Len is a quiet, retired chap and during the last four years we have never seen his sedate demeanor ruffled in the least. He claims to be a lover of the classics and his extensive library bears witness to the fact. Len will reach his mark without fail. McCORMICK, FREDERICK A. 45 Cameron St. “Mac” Holy Apostles’ School Mac is a valuable asset to our class. He has the happy faculty of “catching” some jokes which are cracked during the course of a school day. His melodious voice bespeaks ease but he is on the contrary most active in every undertaking. Whether Mac becomes a plumber or a philosopher, he can’t be stopped. 4 McGRATH, JOHN L. 360 Clay Avenue “Lefty” Cathedral Grammar School Johnny is a loyal student. He lends his support to all scholastic and athletic activities and does his best to keep things moving. In class he often shows evidence of study. This and a desire to cheer up fellow students are his chief assets. As official fraternity man of the class, he is truly a brother. McNALLY, JOHN D. 266 Lincoln Ave. “Yanrw Holy Apostles’ School Behold our bashful hero! The great defensive star on the basketball court maintains a dread of speaking in assembly, an event which he has always successfully avoided. “Yanno” is as good-natured as he is bashful and his courtly manner has made him scores of friends. The darling of the gods, that’s “Yanno.” eif kteen
