Milo Patrick Burke, Beauty, grace and lateness Have given Milo fame. Lazy? you may ask me. No, Pep ' s his middle name. 33 Hillcrest Av., Montello Sodality (1. 2. 3. 4) St. Vincent de Paul (4) IXOUS (1, 2, 3, 4) E To those who have not had the honor of belonging to this ilhis- trious class, it may come as a sur- prise to learn that we have had Milo in our midst for four years. Be not alarmed. It is not Venus de Milo; just Milo from Brockton, whose masculine beauty rivals that of Apollo, we are told.

The fact that Milo is wanting in punctuality may be attributed to two things. In the first place he has ever sought to be individual and in this he has certainly been successful. Second- ly, he comes in to school on the New York New Haven and Hartford. Underneath a non-chalant appearance, however, there is that depth of character that will find the measure of true worth in success.

(-t) Class Outing Com. (3) Treasurer of Athletic Association (4) At the first roll-call in Freshman, the class sat up and took notice when it heard the name Edward Coffey. We were immediately prejudiced in his favor, for we are all fond of that stimulating bev- erage. To be sure we like hot coffee better than cold coffee, a fact which Ed knew; ever since, H he has been bubbling over to such a degree that we have continued ■ to sit up and take notice. The idol of Salem, be it known, has a H penchant for politics which he has demonstrated to the electorate H of that old Colonial town, and we all recognize in his brilliant smile, his diplomatic hand-shake and his fervid oratory, which has ■ often been demonstrated in class meetings. Ed has always in- E sisted upon strict adherence to parliamentary procedure. A thor- g ough student, a proven athlete and a possessor of a fine disposition, g Ed is certainly marked for success. A lover of order, Refreshing and sweet; A pol of the first rank. Both wise and discreet. m
