' enius have engineered We at Prep need never be without a friend for Archbishop Gannon is ever-near with a ready prayer. a word of wisdom. a helping hand. and an encourag- ing smile. Whether on the street or in the school. he always has time for a few words with his boys. At every Quarter Sessions and Sports Banquet. he is present to award honor cards and letters to boys who are outstanding in their particular fields of endeavor. Prepsters often refer to their Archbishop as the man in the window. From that window. he watches us hurry to class in the morning and hasten home- ward in the evening. Many a time, his friendly wave of the hand sends a lad on his way with a great feeling of pride. The Archbishop is Prep's most spirited fzin. He is regularly seen cheering his champions on to victory at Cathedral Center, Gannon Auditorium, and at the Stadium. In every boy, he sees the man, the leader of tomorrow. And so. at every opportunity, he en- courages all of us at Prep to set our sights high! Activities and special occasions are never quite complete at Prep without the presence of Archbishop Gannon, the school's founder. Here at the Athletic Banquet, he enjoys the humor of Monsignor McDonald, Headmaster. QQ 5.-
