In preparation for his vocation, he attended the North American College in Rome. In the seminary, he became director of the choir, a Work he en- joyed. Since he was ordained in 1893, May 27 of this year will mark his golden jubilee. His first appointments brought him to Buffalo, Where he became pastor of Saint Theresa of Avilals par- ish. His next step was an important one. He became superin- tendent of schools in the Buffalo Diocese and carried on many admirable projects in this position. On March 25, 1919, he was consecrated Bishop of Albany, an office which he has executed faithfully for the last twenty-four years. He should be espe- cially indebted to him for his Wisdom and foresight in advocating, organizing and promoting Catholic Central High School, our own Alma Mater. His present favorite project is the Diocesan Mission Aid, which he organized to help the poor parishes in our own diocese.

REU. 6 gefald Juudqueell Q 0 'V X ! ,A if 'Q iii Ll L Principal After four years of close association with Father Mulqueen, We, the class of 1943 wish to express our full appreciation of the kindly guidance and capable instruction he has pro- vided us here at Catholic Central High School. It will influence our conduct as we probably shall never fully realize, but it seems impossible that any one of us should fail to be a better man or woman for having had this contact. Jew. Sammi 1. d5'um4 Treasurer For fifteen years the students of Catholic Central High School were under the guid- ance and outstanding leadership of Father Burns. As the character of an individual is set in youth, so the character of an insti- tution is set in its first years. To Father Burns is due the credit of establishing Cath- olic Central High School as an educational force of significance in the vicinity. 13
