J. Baydik J. Kulka J. Masar B. Blaha JOHN BAYDIK -- Senior Class president and Whiting's gift to Benedictine, UJ.B. distinguished himself both on the gridiron and in the classroom. Johnny, No. 1 Kyser fan, is going to college, but not to Kay's school of Musical Knowledge. JOHN KULKA - Like father, like son - this is true of Jackie, who hopes to become a lawyer. An honor student, our vice president will some- day defend the principles of justice. Good luck, Jack! We may need your services. JOSEPH ORAVEC -- Hailing from Sharon, Pa., Joe is the editor of the 1940 Blue and White. His actions speak louder than his words. Cardinal Newman's definition of a gentleman fits our Joe, who is Benedictine's ideal of a scholar, and a gentleman. EMERIC SCHMIDT - Schmitty , Benedictine's scoring punch in football, is a by-word in Bengal sports. Unassuming and modest, he will go far in college football. Lakewood is proud of this All-Catholic football star, so is Benedictine 4U we J. Oravec E. Schmidt V J. Blatnica C. Bujmlk JOSEPH MASAR - The play's the thing, says Joe of Soup to Nuts fame. But we think Joe's ability as a writer is as great as his dramatic talent. With your speaking ability, Joe, you should be a successful business man. BERNARD BLAHA - Our f'Minnie wants to be- come a druggist, so they say. Judging from the way he handles that powerful stuff in the chem lab, Minnie should be a good mixer of drugs. Do you know your latin, Min? JOHN BLATNICA - B1atts is the tallest of the Nativity trio. You can't blame him for shooting the Ferdinand, for he works in a meat market. Tall, not too dark, - handsome? Better ask her. CHARLES BUJNAK - Buns was a package of dynamite on the football line and what an explosion on the basketball court! His classmates will remember him by his famous words on en- tering first period English class, 'The street-car was late. 37
