Richard F. Lane St. Thomas the Apostle Parish, Woodhaven llf'it and l7lI7l707' belong to gezzizzr alone. -CERVANTES Dick is a man of varied interests. He has work- ed zealously for the Propagation of the Faith for all his six years in Cathedral. Whether it was collecting dues or Wrapping and mailing out religious articles, he did his Work quietly and diligently. As the Observer in the Gargoyle We have seen an excellent display of light writing from his pen. Besides Confraternity Work, he has been an active member of the St. Thomas More Society. Together with this, each year he has filled a position on the Class Basketball Team. But it is in the field oi mimicry that Dick really shines forth. Many indeed have been the mo- ments he has literally bowled us over with his ingenious and amusing imitations and his pres- ence in our midst has certainly enlivened many a class. Nevertheless, he has consistenly done Well in his studies and was particularly adept in French. Only good fortune can be ahead for Dick with a past as bright as his. Robert F. Milde St. Ioseph Parish, Brooklyn Alwuyr al U'UI'k.u-VOLTAIRE The essence of Bob's existence seems to be work. Surveying his participation in extracurri- cular activities, it can only be termed prodigious. As 'Business Manager of the ANNUAL, he has undertaken a job entailing much time, energy, and ingenuity. He has spent long hours in Work- ing for the year book to insure its financial suc- cess, and judging by his efforts it can only be so. Besides he brought his hobby of photography into good use by utilizing it as a medium for pictorial expression in the ANNUAL. The large number of snapshots used this year are due in great part to him. Moreover he has been an earnest member of the Library Staff, St. Iohn Berchman Society, and the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine for the past tew years. What is most astonishing though is that Bob is the Assistant Editor of the Gargoyle, which also demands a great deal of time and work. Having shown such effort, We feel sure that the future can hold only happiness for one so ener- getic as Bob. CATHEDRAL COLLEGE ANNUAL

4 CATHIEDRAL COLLEGE ANNUAL Richard P. Hendel St. Catherine of Siena Parish, St. Albans Srieure when well digerted ir nothing but good renre :md rearo11. -STANISLAUS Rich, or more frequently, Dutch, is a man of many pursuits. There has been accorded to Dutch the unusual combination of athletics, science, and acting. Dutch was appointed Ef- ficiency Expert of the lab and has done much Work in that field. He is this year's captain of the College Basketball Team and he has held berths on the Prep Basketball and Baseball Teams. Through his keen guidance, fine leader- ship, and hard fighting, the College Team had a very good season. Dutch is also an actor, having taken part in the Christmas Radio Play and being one of the Father Ryan Players. He has also been an active member ot the Contraternity, ot the St. Tliiomas More Society, and of the Student Coun- C1 . In his personality, good nature, and fighting spirit, We see characteristics that will most cer- tainly enable Dutch to reach happily and suc- cessfully that final goal which he has chosen as his place in life. William F. Hughes St. Thomas the Apostle Parish, Woodhaven For bir bear! war in lair work, and llae bear! Givezb unto every Arr. -LoNsrEL1.ow Bill is the real plugger type, for he labors tire- lessly in every endeavor he pursues. As chair- man of the Literature Committee, he is the driving force behind the semination of good pamphlet literature in Cathedral. On both Gargoyle and ANNUAL staffs he is an important cog. Yet, he has found time to act in the Christ- mas play and has undertaken the laborious task of secretary for the annual presentation in the Academy of Music. But above all, Bill stands out as a student. In not just one branch of knowledge does he excel, as in math and the sciences but in all the sub- jects, and especially in languages, whether it be Latin, Greek, Italian, or French, he has that extra drive which puts him in the select upper circle, scholastically. Yet, with it all he is modest and unassuming, the perfect combination of gentleman and a scholar. With such an enviable record of hard work and high achievement behind him, the future can hold only success for him in Christ's ministry.

Many indeed have been the times he has given voluble expression of his love for Ireland. He has often made our moments pleasant by enlightening us on the delights of the Old Sod , whether it be Kil- kenny or some other part ot Ireland. On the boards his fine performances have enkindled him to us as or real Thespian. As the young curate in Father Malachy's Miracle and as Ioe Short in the Least of My Brethren , he demonstrated the acting ability in him. Yet he has devoted himself as ct member of both the ANNUAL and Gargoyle staffs, besides being an active member of the Literature Com- mittee, St. Iohn Berchman's, and the St. Thomas More Society. Work coupled with an easy winning manner has made Tom a most gracious aspirant for the Holy Priesthood. Edward I.

Two hundred twenty pounds of bone and muscle on a six foot three frame bespeak a person oi gar- gantuan proportions in our midst. Yet this mass of flesh and blood are only a cloak for a kind heart and a fine fellow. Twice a week for three years he had trudged down to St. Peter's Mission to minister Christ's Gospel to some poor unfortunate children. With- out praise or reward Ed has done a most com- mendable job. For several years he has been an active mem- ber ot the choir and now is one of Father Klar- mann's standby's. Other activities that he has taken a great interest in are the St. Iohn Berchman's Society and the St. Thomas More Society. Using his height to advantage, Ed has been a member of the Class Basketball Team for the past four years, and has led them to two suc- cessive school championships. Yet with it all, he has diligently persevered in his studies and has given a noteworthy dem- onstration as a most fitting applicant for work in the field of Christ.
