A . . . Q-Seniow JOHN ROBERT LEE-St. Edward-Brilliant, taciturn, Jack is typical of the principles upon which our school is founded. His iourneys into the realm of philafely have won for him the knowledge of a vast, new world. His zeal for all activities underlies the great loyalty he has for his school. A tenacious, prodding nature and a strong Catholic character, can only present him with a happy, useful and exciting life. JOHN EDWARD LERCHEN-Visitation-When Samuel F. B. Morse first invented the telegraph he had no idea that his discovery would someday cause Jack to aspire toward the field of electricity. Yet, his hobbies do not end with this. His skill at photography is surpassed only by his proficiency as a business man. We feel that this training will aid him immensely when he becomes president of the Detroit Edison Company. JOHN JOSEPH LYNETT-St. Theresa-When they strike up the band and the couples sweep out upon the floor, one will inevitably find John, either creeping into a fancy jitterbug step, or gliding smoothly across the floor to the tune of n rhythmic waltz. His gay, nonchalant outlook on life seems to immunize him against all vicissitudes. The colorful en- chanting atmosphere of Broadway attracts him to the theatre, upon cessation of hostilities. JOHN PATRICK MALONEY-St. Agnes-Admittedly a social butterfiy, domineering Pat may be seen at all the prominent dances, especially in connection with the Ex-cent-trix fraternity. Comely and popular, his profound fondness for physics under- lies his membership in the Science Club. Discounting the fact that he may don the raiment of a Marine, Pat intends to master the ologies of medicine at the University of Notre Dame. PETER DAVID MANNING-St. Charles Borromeo-Reserved, scholarly, Pete is well known to all his classmates. Though an ardent sports fan, the enigmas of philosophy and the ethereal strains of classical music have claimed him as their own. Thus, as we scan the horizon, we see Peter Manning, Ph.D., or will the name Manning become synonomous with those of Bach, Beethoven and Brahms? MYLES DANIEL MARKEY-St. Matthew-Notable performances in football games and in practice led the coach to award Myles o coveted berth on our Shamrock eleven. His play during the season was excellent and consistent. Although he will never again don the blue and gold of Catholic Central, it is his desire to play football at the University of Detroit while finishing an engineering course.

el'li0'l.'J 0 0 0 JOHN RICHARD JOSAlTlS--Epiphany-The science af me- chanics and flight have always been a source at curiosity to Jacky yet, this conundrum has only spurred him on to ferret out the secrets ol aviation. He has entered his models into sundry airplane meets, and several times has captured inter- national as well as national honors. lt is our earnest wish that someday he shall, as did the daring Siegrid, soar to the heights of Valhalla. GEORGE JOACHIM KRYMOW-St. Scholastica-Prima facie, silent, tactful, George seems to possess the traits familiar only to a good student, but underneath he has at his com- mand exceptional agility, mentally as well as physically. His experience with radio and electricity have made him swift and alert in his decisons. Were we to prognosticate his future, we would see for him unlimited success in college engineering and a career that would parallel Marconi's. ROBERT LAWRENCE KUKLER-Holy Rosary-Philately, the king of hobbies, has opened for Bob a vast repertory of knowledge and has engendered in him the germ of philanthropy. Through his discovery of the customs, ideals and traditions of the world, he has established a clearer understanding of his fellow-man, Postewar security will hinge on the adoption of Charity. lt is certain that Bob will be one of its out- standing proponents. PAUL CHARLES LA MARREfSt. Mary of Redford-Attention, Tiger scouts! There is an individual in our midst whose baseball ability is well worth noting. A stellar hurler on our varsity for the last two years, this handsome, talented gradu- ate has succeeded in maintaining a four year honor average. With an eye to the future, Paul hopes that upon termination of his service with the Marine Corps, he may return to secure a college education. JOHN RICHARD LANDRY-Epiphany-Laconic, but expressive, small in stature, yet tall in virtue, Jack can always be found among informal discussions, giving either his advice or con- structive criticisms. ln his spare time the novelty of philately lascinates him. His attraction toward Latin and English are a sure sign that next fall will find him in attendance at the Notre Dame College of Arts and Letters. BRIAN JEROME LEAVYV- Gesu-A high scorer in the Blood and Thunder intramural basketball league and one of the glamour boys ot the Senior Class, Promoter holds three perfectly cast keys to success: intelligence, personality, and physical stamina. His accomplishments in the classroom and on the basketball court promise to be dwarfed in the years to come, when the title of M.D. will grace the name of so afloble and capable a graduate. . :S VS. - :Q t ftefhis r ESE RS 's .

CSel'll:0'lJ 0 0 0 sie 'G-' CLARENCE JOSEPH MARSHALI.fAssumption Grotto- Bubs ' personality emanates from his confessed love for people. The fact that he is so willing and anxious to assist his fellow students has promulgated his name and accomplishments throughout the school. In his free time Bubs takes delight in scoring strikes and spares . Filial pride prompts him to undertake a business education, so that when the time comes, he will be prepared to manage his father's retail concern. EUGENE ARTHUR MARTZ-St. Brigid-The superb products of Father French's Freshmen Boxing Club are due in no small degree to the efforts of Gene, whose sage, encouraging ad- vice has helped many a contestant to attain the height of pugilistic power. Not only in boxing, but in all activities, he lends his talents for their success. This alone is sufficient foundation for our trust in him. ANTHONY CHARLES MASCARI--Patronage of St. .losephf With that certain finesse that almost every amateur hobbyist must possess Tony has shot action pictures of everything from sunsets to basketball players at the climax of a game. Included among them are many detailed pictures of model airplanes which he has meticulously constructed. If he should be called into the service of his country, he will express a preference for aerial photography in the Navy. JOSEPH NICHOLAS MAZUR-St. Dominic-Patience, courage, study and prayer-this is Joe's recipe for success. Moreover, it is not only preached, but also practiced in his life on the gridiron, in the classroom and at home. Like many of his friends he enjoys swimming, bowling and ice-skating. His renown as a speed skater will be surpassed only by the fame that will one day be his, as Joseph N. Mazur, B.S., M.S., Sc.D. RICHARD HAROLD McASKlN-St. Brigid-After a hectic cam- paign in which the proximity of the outcome gave both candidates and voters an unforgetable thrill, Dick succeeded in capturing the Senior Class presidency. He won the sup- port of his loyal football admirers along with that of the students who saw in him the ideal qualities of a leader. With his experience as a class executive he might someday attain national prominence. PATRICK JAMES MCCAFFERY-St. Brigid-A fond believer in the philosophy that life is what you make it, Pat has skillfully employed his talents in improving his intellect and making a name for himself at Central. Caught in the whirlpool of society, he finds little time to pursue his favorite hobbies of hunting and fishing. To Notre Dame for a degree of LL.D. is his ultimate destination.
