Page 10 PURPLE AND GOLD Biographies-Continued EDWARD FRANCIS HANNON ' As we journey through our school life, many of our old classmates drop out, while others come to take their places. Among the latter is Edward Hannon, a graduate of East Syracuse High School. A good student as well as an all around good fellow, he is well liked by all those who have the pleas- ure of his acquaintance. Ed's main hobbies are falconry and logarithms. Go it, Ed! May success be yours whatever paths you take after graduation. ALOYSIUS CARL HOFMANN Q Carl is a very modest and unassuming chap. He is an excellent student and likewise a good fellow. He is always willing to lend a helping hand and get behind the wheel and push. Carl car- ried off highest honors in the class for four years and expects to complete his studies at Syracuse Uni- versity. Achilles had his vulnerable spot, his heel g Carl has his, fishing, he would rather fish than eat and he eats quite often. He has made an impression on the class as class critic and will no doubt be a. conspicuous figure in college lfe. JOHN JosEPH HoGAN Introduicing John Hogan, the North Side midget. After completing seven years at Sacred Heart Academy and coming through with flying colors, he decided to follow up his meteoric career by enter- ing C. B. A. A ready wit and winning personality make john a likeable boy, although he has one bad habit of coming on time for school too often. He has made quite a name for himself as an extem- poraneous speaker. Some day we may be reading of another famous justice Hogan and no doubt it will be our friend john. MARCUS JAMES KAUFFMAN Our Marcus is a very likeable chap. He is a graduate and representative of St. John's Catholic Academy. Coffee is popularly known as the boy with the hair. Although a baker by trade, and an auto mechanic by necessity, he is thinking seriously of becoming an author. His literary works are of the highest calibre and his great love for poetry promises him a prominent place in the world. Success! JOHN EDWARD LYNCH Eddie came to C. B. A. in 1922 from Sacred Heart School. He was hailed as a second Socrates and has lived up to expectations by leading his class in chemistry and geometry. Eddie made his block letter in track. He is considered one of the best in the school. Here is hoping that roses will grow in whatever path he chooses. ARTHUR BABISE MCGUIRE ' Mac has been with the class from the first and is one of the most willing and capable workers .in it. Besides being a member of the championship C. B. A. tennis team and class basketball team he is the class representative on the Purple and Gold staff. He has made many friends at C. B. A. be- cause of his straightforwardness and mannerly conduct. He is a booster of C. B. A. and one of the hardest workers in the class. Although Mac's father is in the insurance business, it is not likely that Mac will follow in his footsteps. He has aspirations to the lawyer's bench and will matricu- late at Harvard next fall with the best wishes of all his friends. ,

Page 12 PURPLE ANU GOLD Biographies-Continued FRANCIS EMORY MCKEEVER VVe all know Emory by his broad smile and his happy word for everyone. Emory is very modest, but sometimes he cannot repress his merriment and he has to let it out, or else explode. Emory was one of the main factors of the football team of 1925. VVhen he isn't playing he is backing the team to the limit. Emory was also manager of the Senior A. baseball team. Beside being connected with many athletic activities, Emory is considered the best Charleston dancer of the school. He is a good example of joy in life because of work well done. VVell, Emory, so long and success! FREDERICK MARTIN MESMER We need not give introduction to Freddie Mesmer, whom you all know. Freddie has completed three years of service on the C. B. A. basketball team, being elected captain for the last two years. He also captained the tennis team for two years. Besides being an athlete, Fred is also intellectually inclined. It will be hard to fill his shoes on the basketball court, and we think that everybody will agree with us, when we say he will be missed. If the term student-athlete is applicable to all our ath- letes, a special' mention of the term must be made when we speak of Freddie. He has climbed to suc- cess in a lot of things and we know he'll keep climbing. PATRICK HENRY NEEDHAM Hank, our dignified Vice-President, is now learning the druggist's trade. He is making rapid strides and we soon expect him to get ahead. Hank is a jack of all trades. He can speak, write compositions and even recite chemistry. He was brought up on hard work, he likes it and that's going to obviate many of the ills to which flesh is heir. May sunshine always be yours, Hank, and success beyond your dearest hopes! JOHN HENRY PIRRO Johnnie Pirro, better known as eight ball, hails from the North Side. His smile dispels gloom as the sun does the dark clouds. Although mischievous at times, he is a good scholar. His ardent love for chemistry may some day bring forth many new compounds to startle the scientific world. He is now trying to get wood out of alcohol in case of another coal strike. Never say die, Johnny, and may you keep going along life's primrose path always wearing your contagious smile. JOSEPH THGMAS PIRRO Now we come to the big fellow, Joe Pirro. He entered the Brothers' School upon graduation from Prescott School, where he successfully finished a grammar school course. Although Joe tips the scales at two hundred, he is one of the most ambitious boys in the school. Joe is a very likeable fel- low, and is popular with everyone. Some day Joe will take over his father's undertaking establish- ment, and become one of the most prominent embalmers of the day. People love him so much, they'll die to please him. PAUL FRANCIS SCANLON Paul Scanlon, a native of Auburn, came to East Syracuse, where, after pastiming at the local high school, he entered C. B. A. Although Paul is exceedingly quiet, he is widely known for his dramatic talent. The minute Paul arrives at school in the morning, he envelopes himself in study. Paul has a noble character and this, united with his ambition, is bound to help him come out on top.
