ICHARD CERRUTI is the funniest person in the Senior Class. No day goes by without our sampling some of his hilarious humor, An expert at the delicate art of teacher-baiting, Dick is constantly catching the faculty oft guard. Although not actually a member of the faculty, Dick supervises the scheduling of tesiss and the organization of the curriculum. As Head of the History Department, he instructs Mr. Barker in the teaching of the courses and also UE, M it writes critical letters to the authors of the texts. Mr. Adams 3' , 0 is greatly indebted to Dick, who keeps order in English gf. Z. lg, class and corrects him whenever necessary. Messrs. Chiao 3 .' H- and Newsom have expressed their gratitude to Mr. Cerruti, F4 Q. k 1 whose tutoring swept them into Cum Laude in a blaze of R, Cerrutean glory. ' - Dick's prowess on the gridiron is known throughout the league. His six feet and four inches towering over the opposing center has caused members of other teams to com- ment apprehensively, Whadda they got, college guys? He has also been a member of the Drama Club stage crew for two years, and in the last production held the office of Keeper of the Nightingales. We wish Dick the best of luck as he leaves for New England and college. RICHARD JOSEPH CERRUTI 4 1 .

PAUL FREDERICK BUBENDEY HE name of Paul Bubendey will go down in '57 annals as the biggest dealer in many a year. A sunny Saturday afternoon will find Paul, a devotee of the Sport of Kings, in front of the two dollar window at Aqueduct. He has endeared himself to the more sporting members of our class A A with his frequent and accurate tips on the nags. A skillful - ', 'iff' pool player and a card sharp with remarkable luck, Paul 'K' -q'yg5':5lc-LL 2 ix. has spent many evenings with us until the wee hours of the ., morning at the class's renowned Friday night card sessions. Paul has his erudite side, however, with classical music be- ing his great love. We have often seen him emerge from the Record Hunter with a newly-purchased stack of Wag- nerian discs. His musical interests are visible at school, too, where as President of the Glee Club his fine tenor voice has added much to the concerts. A respected member of the Student Council and Secretary of the Student Court, he has done a fine iob in keeping the lower classes on their toes. We all look forward to the day when, hard-pressed for a pair of ducats to the Met opening, we will encounter Paul scalping tickets outside the Opera House. in l Y 16

RAYMOND YU CHIAO URELY Ray is the most energetic scholar of our class. We all laughed when, in English class, he violently argued some point in literature and then, proving his familarity with the particular work being discussed, defended the opposite view equally well. His exclamations of But no, that's im- possible! and his lengthy interpretations were observed with much amusement, But we all laughed out of the other side of our mouths when he was elected to Cum Laude in the Junior year, and we all rushed out to buy the textbooks which should have been purchased at the beginning of the year. Ray continually amazes us with his wealth of knowledge in both the Humanities and the Sciences. He has done an admirable job as President of the History Club, organizing debates, lectures, and a highly successful political rally. The Glee Club is indebted to him for his strenuous efforts as accompanist and his vain efforts to keep us on key. Ray also holds the distinction of being a four-year man on the football team. We shall remember Ray for his friendly smile 1usually hidden behind a book1, his perseverance, and most of all for his remarkable achievements at Collegiate. 18
