I JOSEPH PETER BRENOT St. Peter's Pete J. P. is easily the paradox of '47. His moods, accomplishments, ideas, and general information have been legion and legend for four long years. Pete collects stamps and graces the radio and camera clubs with his magnetic presence. He served as a cheerleader for two years. Pete's ambition is the field of hydraulic engineering, and although he has not won honors, he is recognized by all as one of our scholastic lights with a very bright future in enginf eering. JOHN JOSEPH BROSNAN Sacred Heart ajoss.. Joss Qtaken from john and Brosj is a cleanfcut fellow who talks less than silent Cal Coolidge, but his sterling voice is more than audible in the Clee Club. As a leftfhalf on the IV football team, he streaked across the greensward. Stocks and bonds, profit and loss, selling and buying draw this steady solid Prepster to the business world. We predict he will accumulate a wealth of worldly lucre and of valuable friends. EDWARD ALBERT BRUNNER Sacred Heart Eddie Eddie is truly a representative Prepster. As a cheerleader, he was a vociferous backer of school teams, and he projected his golden tones into the debating club. An industrious student, Eddie has consistently won honors, and in his Freshman year, he received the scholarship award. His literary inf terests, and they were multitudinous, directed him to The Rambler and The Litefulae staffs. We see in Eddie promise of a congenial, successful city lawyer, who will administer justice kindly but firmly. LAWRENCE PHILIP BULA St. Stanislaus' Larry This rollicking towhead entered Prep as a fiveffoot Freshman, but as a Senior, he is crowding six feet and still growing. A wholesome, helpful, earnest individual, he radiates good example to all undergrads. He served on the Junior Prom committee and untiringly served on the intrafmural cage and grid squads. The teachers will remember Larry for his nevermissfdailyfwork spirit. At Gannon College this fall, Larry will specialize in English and live a life consecrated to dictionaries, grammars, and literary anthologies.

-f-In ,ln M1199 CLARENCE GILBERT BOEHM Sacred Heart Sonny Joining us in his Junior year, Sonny is Academy's chief contribution to '47. Sonny has brightened our corridors with his winning personality and his ever' popular accordion. Clarence played with the varsity gridders for two years and in the spring was a cinder man on our original track squad. Besides music, spare time finds him in the radio club. Sonny intends to matriculate at Notre Dame and seems destined for a niche in Science's Hall of Fame. JOSEPH HERMAN BOHRER St. John's Ll.-loci! After his first two years, joe left for the Spartan School in Tulsa for a course in meteorology. Since his return, he has been the weather prognosticator extraordinary. He is a mature, scholarly student who has become one of the district's best private pilots in his spare time and an honor student at school. He intends to go on to Gannon, M.I.T., and a degree in physics preparatory to a future in the weather bureau. If his past is any indication, Joe will be much more cooperative than the proverbial cloudfcaller. HARRY ANTHONY BOWERSOX St. John's i'Bu.dl' Harry has been unobstrusively but influentially present for four long years. His steady pursuance of duties masks an amiable personality revealed in his love of hunting and fishing. He collects stamps and provides the driving force behind the taxidermy club. He is inclined toward the security and promise of a job in the postal department, and if the future mail rate goes plummeting down from three cents, Bud will probably be one of the instigators behind the improvement. CARLTON JOSEPH BRABENDER Sacred Heart 'iCudu A personable socialite is our own Cudu. His main talent lies in dancing, and he claims the honor of escorting a Queen to a Villa Prom. An ardent admirer of the fairer sex, he captivates starfdusters with his winning smile and cheerful disposition. Because of his job at Laver's, his achievements in athletics have been limited to IntrafMural football. Cudu whiles away his leisure time stamp collecting. His future vocation still uncertain, he intends to go to college when leaves start turning to gold in the a

ROBERT WILLIAM COHAN St. joseph's-Warren, Pa. Bob Sensibly serious yet constantly cheery, Bob has resided at St. Mark's and labored in our midst for three years. At St. Mark's, he was the Assistant Student Prefect, Dean of Studies, and the ideally conscientious seminarian. His hobbies are basket' ball, billiards, and plastics. Blessed with a Going My Way wit and a Father Flanagan understanding, Bob will certainly inspire his parishoners to world' changing goodness whether he is assigned to our majestic Cathedral or to a small parish in Cod's country. ROBERT MATTHEW CUSTER Holy Family Pie Bob found his way to Prep from East in his Sophof more year, and We will undoubtedly remember him as the soberest boy in the class. Imperturbably, he sauntered from room to room with his mind dwelling in the depths of thought. Bob put in a season as a miler with the track team, and, in his spare time, he liked to read short stories and tear the insides out of Marconi's pet invention. He hopes to Wear bell' bottomed trousers next June. ERNEST JAMES DALEY St. Patrick's-Franklin, Pa. Ernie Tall and thin, Ernie emits rosy beams of cheer and benevolence wherever he appears. A studious nature has marked him as a betterfthanfaverage student, and the amiable atmosphere he creates has been his passport everywhere. In his spare moments, an urge to click the shutter has qualified him as an amateur photographer. Ernest is headed for the serious study of the priesthood at St. Bonaventure's College. The Roman collar and black suit will be becoming to him. GILIO LOUIS DI PRE St. James'-Driftwood, Pa. SLG!! A statue of G for posterity might easily be called the listener as our seminarian is noted for the gift of speaking only when he has something vitally important to say. Unobtrusivef ly joining us in his junior year, he proved himself an able and likeable student. His love of hunt' ing and fishing was satiated in the Woods and streams of beautifullyfforrested Dent's Run. His doforfdie tactics won him a berth on the St. Mark's Hall basketeers. He hopes to enter Gannon College and prepare for the priesthood.
