In his brief stay among us he has more than held his own in the athletic limelight, starring especially in football and baseball. There are those bare scoundrels Who at times have hinted that Scolpo was a loyal son of Abraham but friend Louie has a.lWays held his own for Viva Italia. He is quite a Thespian and an orator of note. He is Well-liked and not only by boysg but then he is older than we and can enjoy those special privileges. All year he teamed up well with Mul and he galloped through his studies at a steady trot. Well, good-bye, Scolpo, we hope to meet again. . V-I,

Give your feet a treat-keep o11 tl1e level with Sl12lllHll311,S shoes! VVe predict Joe will be a successful salesman. He could talk a pair of high-heeled shoes onto an Italian laborer. J. Patrick, besides being one of our best a11d noisiest scholars, is a fanlous athlete, basketball and baseball being his favorite sports. He was a letter-111an in each. But J oe's greatest claim to distinction is his philosopllical, laughing outlook on life. His whinlsical smile coupled with 11is true Jewish wit made even serious Cav smile. For Joe is a real 11llIll0I'lSlZ and what they call a f'wise-cracker. We learned from him that Roxbury is the greatest place in tl1e world. VVe don't know what course of life Shanny is con' templating followingg but we know that wherever he goes or whatever he does, he will never want for friends and fortune. WVe wish you luck, Joe, as you prepare to leave us.
