PETER CILENTI Pete came to us this year after corn' pleting his work at Orange High School where he was best known for his particif pation in the club known as Il Circulo Ital- iano. Here at Carteret we came to know Pete by his overgrown car and his vivacious spirit. His expert violin playing in the school orchestra has also added to his popuf larity. Among other extra-curricular ac' tivities in which he took part were J. V. football and basketball. We are sure that Peter will be a credit to Carteret in the future. 1. V. Football 141, V.

Coming from Verona, Ed has been at Carteret for the past four years and dur' ing that time has lent his talent to both our scholastic and athletic enterprises. He is known to most of us by his sterling play at third base during the baseball season and we are sure that he will be highly sucf cessful at college.

EDUARDO RICARDO DEL CARMEN When Eddy Del Carmen first set foot in the halls of Carteret, his English left much to be desired, in fact, Mr. Del Carmen could speak very little English at all. This condition, however, was short lived. In one year at Carteret Eddy has made unbelievable strides toward his goal of learning English, and with this new power of expression the students of Car- teret have found Eduardo to be the pos' sessor of unusual amounts of wit, charm, friendliness and intelligence. Managua, Nicaragua may still be a wonderful town but it lost a promising son when E. D. C. took a boat across the aqua.
