Meisenzahl, Harold J. “HAROLD” 708 Portland Avenue St. Andrew ' s School Harold never talks about himself but actions speak louder than words. We find that he is found in alleys —bowling alleys. Harold has aspirations to the med¬ ical profession. If you do not die of old age before you begin to start to prac¬ tice, call on us and we will let you practice on us, Harold. Meng, Karl H. “karl” 24 Woodbine Avenue St. Augustine ' s School Karl is never late or ab¬ sent. However, do not think he is not a real boy for he detests Latin and is a member of the four year math class. Karl is one of the many seniors who want to be engineers. He is one of the few who will be en¬ gineers—not mere clerks in an engineer ' s office. Meteyer, Norman J. “norm” 41 Burkard Place As an artist, Norm makes a modest tennis champ. We will remember him chiefly for his work in the basketball tournament. It was the good coaching plus Norm that won the cup for his homeroom. Norm wears his crown lightly—for which we like him all the more. His quiet smile insures future suc¬ cess. Miller, Francis C. “frank” 24 Saratoga Avenue Jefferson Junior High Frank is truly a great writer, for all great writ¬ ers have a hard time to be recognized and Frank surely has a difficult time —ask Father Morgan. There are other things about Frank, namely black curly hair, broad shoulders and long legs, which in¬ sure a place on the football team of his next Alma Mater. Miller, Robert G. “bob” 179 Augustine Street Nazareth Hall Bob’s splendid perform¬ ances on the stage for the past three years are a fitt¬ ing tribute to him. This Adonis of the Senior Class has also been prominent in studies, sports, debates and as an usher. He is a mem¬ ber of the Virgil class and of the Literary Committee. May you succeed at Har¬ vard Law School, Bob! Millhofer, Milton “milt” 33 Chesterfield Drive Holy Rosary School Behold one of the mem¬ bers of the Jones-Prender- gast-Millhof er triumvi¬ rate. Milt is a genial chap and popular. He is a hus¬ tler and can be seen dur¬ ing his spare time caring for the hots at Johnny Klien’s stand on Lyell Road. Auf-Wiedersehen Milt, and don’t let your success cause you to ne¬ glect your two mates. twenty-eight

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. Vale, Paule. txventyseven

Mooney, Lawrence J. “larry” 44 Newcomb Street St. Francis Xavier School Larry is one of the live¬ liest members in the Class and as carefree as a lark. His wit is the spice of all the classes of which he is a member. We have no fear of the future for Larry because the world was made for him; but the school will miss his effer¬ vescent spirit as well as his sorrel-hued top-piece. Moore, Kenneth A. “KENNEY” 3451 Dewey Avenue SS. Peter Paul’s School Every day you can see Kenney’s Nash sedan roll¬ ing into the school yard, packed with his friends. Kenney is a good history student as well as a good taxi-driver. Moreover Kenney is not only poular at school, but it is rumored that he also has several ad¬ mirers in Syracuse. Good luck, Kenney. Muoio, William A. “bill” 169 Davis Street Mount Carmel School Bill was the most disap¬ pointed man in the Class when it was decreed that no one was to display his molars on his picture. But Bill does not have to de¬ pend upon his adorable masticators for his income. Bill’s genius takes the form of inquisitiveness and F a t h e r O’Donnell will vouch for that quality. mmi Murphy, Harold T. “murph” 77 Ridgeway Avenue Sacred Heart School Harold is the smaller edition of the Murphys and the exact opposite of his namesake, preferring to let the more extensive Mur¬ phy do all the shouting. He is both gentleman and stu¬ dent. We suspect that Har¬ old is destined to occupy the White House as a se¬ quel to the Coolidge admin¬ istration. Murphy, Joseph D. “murph” 545 Clay Avenue Webb High School Old Forge, New York Murph is one of the most genial fellows in the Sen¬ ior Class. He hails from the Adirondacks and that is perhaps why he delights in slapping backs and pok¬ ing ribs, always maintain¬ ing that perpetual, inno¬ cent Irish grin. Goodbye, Murph, and may many others enjoy your pleasant personality. Naas, Bernard G. “berney” 59 Ellicott Street St. Monica’s School Berney is one of the little giants of the Senior Class and one of its most popular members. His flashy play in the Home Room League was one of the chief factors in bring¬ ing the trophy to Room 321. He is also a member of the Virgil class and of the large group who are going on to college. twenty-nine
