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.

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

Ieremiah F. O'Brien St. Saviour Parish, Brooklyn Courage leudf to f7EiI'l'6'lI . . . -SENECA Ierry has been dogged by misfortune. Twice in his high school career, illness postponed the pursuance of his studies. Yet he fought his way back bravely and now ranks as one of the outstanding members of the class. He is the editor of the Gargoyle and has made a Worthwhile job of it. For each issue he has painstakingly directed it so that it lives up to the high literary standards set by previous years. As a leader, we saw his direction as the Pres- ident of the St. Thomas More Society and as a member of the Student Council. Furthermore, Ierry has demonstrated his prow- ess, as a speaker, by having won the College Oratorical Contest while in Fifth Year. Another example of his varied ability was his portrayal of Father Darcy, the main character of this year's Academy play in which ferry displayed a talent for dramatics. The past has only been a test for Terry and having displayed such courage by a determined fight for recovery, we feel sure that he has not been found wanting. A stout heart as his be- speaks a future filled only with happiness. William I.

So quiet in fact that one hardly realizes that he is present. Yet he has always struck the class as being one of the most sincere fellows We have been privileged to meet. Hard plugging is the foundation of his work and he has been most diligent in his studies. For three years he has conscientiously worked as a catechist with the poor unfortunate children of St. Peter's. Three years he has also spent in the St. Thomas More Society. For diversion Bill has sung in the choir, ln fact he has devoted six years to the choir, longer than anyone else in the school. Besides, Bill has been in the St. Iohn Berch- man's Society for a number ot years. With a record of such industry behind him Bill is certain to reap the fruits of success. CATHEDRAL COLLEGE ANNUAL
