Kress, Robert L. “bob” 63 Willite Drive St. Andrew’s School “Bob” is our quiet and observing chap. He has been one of our leading scholars since entering school. He is a member of the Foch Circle and Liter¬ ary Committee and the odds are that he will ap¬ propriate one of the major prizes on graduation night. Landau, Frederick W. “fred” 120 Rockview Terrace St. Augustine School “Fred” is one of the wonders of the school; he is a member of the French Club and one of the mar¬ iners who has successfully weathered the seas of four years of Math. Success is surely in store for him. Latus, Charles J. “chuck” 270 Field Street Blessed Sacrament School “Chuck” is one of those silent men whose absence is greatly noticed. We feel a distinct loss when he is not with us. His rosy cheeks and engaging smile will be long remembered by all of us. tr, Leary, Edwin J. “ed” 419 Ridgeway Avenue Sacred Heart School Small of stature, “Ed” is a quiet lad who always wears a smile. He is well liked by all his classmates, and possesses qualities which will win him respect in the outer world as they have at Aquinas. Levis, William C. “bill” 29 Evergreen Street St. Bridget’s School Bill generally spends his leisure with the intellec¬ tuals DeSando and Wag¬ ner. In spite of that, or perhaps because of it, he is a fine fellow, a member of the French Club and an exceptional student, espe¬ cially in science. Bill’s chosen career is profes¬ sional chemistry. We’re behind you, Bill. Le Veque, Joseph E. “joe” 151 Gorsline Street Immaculate Conception “Joe” has two pet hob¬ bies which, if the reports in the papers are correct, seem to be synonomous— bridge and argumentation. “Joe” will argue any ques¬ tion with anyone, and if his bridge score makes Carl De Sando look sick, then his triumph is complete. twenty-six

Kavanaugh, Robert W. “bob” 212 Monroe Avenue St. Mary’s School Going to sleep in English class is Bob’s weakness. Aside from that, he is O. K. We would recommend him as a trim, keen gentle¬ man, who, like all promi¬ nent men, plays golf for recreation. Best wishes for a successful future to you, Bob. Kelly, John E. “AENEAS” 590 Driving Park Ave. Corpus Christi School In Aeneas we have the veritable sage in disguise of the Senior Class. All his intellectual potentiality is hidden behind his extreme ordinariness of demeanor. From what we have ob¬ served of him we predict that he will some day blos¬ som forth into another Milton or Wordsworth. Kelly, John F. “f” 59 Rugby Avenue District No. 15 Colonie, N. Y. Though the names of the two John Kellys have caused frequent mistakes, when “F” steps forward to lead a cheer, it is easily seen that he has a person¬ ality all his own. “F” made a great hit as the detective in the Senior Play, and we trust that he will always “get his man.” Keyes, Thomas F. “tom” 166 Dave Street Holy Rosary School “Tom” has won our re¬ gard as a scholar, whose questions are usually tech¬ nical. He is a willing work¬ er and has given much ef¬ fort to the work of the Lit¬ erary Committee. Kinsella, John J. “jack” 55 Gorsline Street St. Mary’s School Canandaigua, N. Y. Jack is our idea of the perfect senior — dignified and reserved. Nothing ever startles him, and it is a question if he would be even faintly surprised to receive perfect marks in all his classes. Klos, Thaddeus J. “ted” 1073 Hudson Avenue St. Stanislaus School Busy as a bee, is a weak phrase when applied to “Ted” who is the most in¬ dustrious man in the Sen¬ ior Class. In spite of hav¬ ing to spend hours extract¬ ing sheckles trom 306, he manages to stand among the leaders of his class. Keep it up, Ted 1 twenty-five

Mastrella, John A. “JOHNNIE” 973 Emerson Street Cathedral School Johnnie is our contribu¬ tion to the world of sport. We are depending upon him to make the gentle art of self defense more gentle and refined. To do this Johnnie must do four things: pray, keep his teeth whitened, harden the muscles of his legs, and above all, keep that smile of his. Maurer, Robert J. “bob” 74 Sagamore Drive St. Bridget’s School Bob is going to be a gen¬ ius in the line of science, for he asks questions no one can answer, smiles at things which are common place to others, wears glasses, and gets 98 in Physics. His books are priceless because of their artistic ornaments. Bob will go far, if he makes but slight use of his talents. McCarthy, Gerald P. “mac” 64 Cumberland Street St. Joseph’s School “Mac” was class cut-up till he reached seniordom. Now all that is changed. He used to be in the center of the group; now he is seen only on the side lines. He is also a frequenter of libraries. Mac is beginning to look and act like a busi- man. He knows it, too, for he dines out. Original and himself, is Mac. McConville, Don. E. “don” 5 Charlton Road Scottsville High School This former farmer (though you wouldn ' t think it), is Babe Ruth, Bobby Jones, and Red Grange, all in one. His broken arm lost the tourn¬ ament cup for his home¬ room. We are in on the se¬ cret that he is aiming at something very big and we’re praying that he will hit 1000. Remember, Don, “la fin couronne l’oeuvre.” McLaughlin, John J. “scotty” 55 Fourth Street Corpus Christi School We cannot account for the Scotch origin of this “Irishman’s” nickname. At any rate, it is a misnomer for “Scotty” is never Scotch. He likes his fun, and is always found in the midst of a noisy senior (or any other) group. We think Scotty has an extra set of books at home for he never takes any from school. McNamara, Paul E. “mac” 707 West Avenue St. Monica’s School They say that the grad¬ uate of Aquinas should be a student, and a “good Christian, gentleman. ’ Paul is all that. He is a student — Virgil student. He is good—very good. He attended Mass each morn¬ ing in Lent, and his whole hearted support in all ex¬ tra-curricular activities has shown him a gentle¬ man.
