it Weill 'EUGENE J. KENNEDY Euwie, Red, Hughie. Our Lady of Good Council. Uluss Relay, 1. A few moments before the morning de- votion begins in class, we see as it were a Flaming torch of the most agreeable color, wend its way through a throng of boys, and stop at Euwie's seat. Then we hear a clear voice entone a prayer, and we know that Kennedy is at his post and ready for the day's work. Personally Kennedy is a fun-loving fellow, posses- ing' a happy disposition. Association with Frank Clark, his companion of the sta- tionery room, increases in him that na- tural bouyancy of spirit. His associates will tell you that to know Gene is to love hini. Always cheerful, his genial dispo' sition, has made him a fav-orite with his classmates. the faculty, and the student body. His attention has been devoted to study when not developing his musical talent. As a student his stumbling block is Spanish, otherwise the academic course holds no terrors for him. Although Gene has not revealed his future edu- cational plans we feel sure that he is going to make good. Page thirty-s'ia, CARL H. KLUBE Charlieg Carl. De La Salle Grammar.. Class President, 13 Secretary, 2g Class De- bating, 35 Class Editor, 33 Class Relay, 1, 2, 3, 4. A few years ago Carl was assailed with the contagious Wanderlust, and after hav- ing visited every country of any importance in Europe, he returned to continue his scholastic career at De La Salle. Carl is very quiet in class, so much so, in fact, that often one is not aware of his presence. He possesses that individuality that wins for him numerous friends. Carl immed- iately displayed his school spirit in the first weeks of his stay at De La Salle by his enthusiastic interest in all class activ- ities, and his response to the call for sup- port by the student body. He ranks the leaders of his class. and al- not too brillant in any particular among though branch, he maintains a standard which always keeps him among the leaders. His to duty and gentlenianly ways Fidelity stamp him as a staunch character. He is calculating in his ambitions, yet tender with appreciation and regard for others. beet ll .9 gal

He is a studious young fellow and takes a live part in all the activities of the class. john has opinions of his own, and is not afraid to express them. Very often his speeches have thrown consternation into our class meetings. He is sort of a quite chap, but can always see the funny side of life He is a star member of the school debating team, and has very definite ideas on the present day social problems. Further enhancing and enn-obling his intellectual accomplishments is his sterling and vir- tuous character a combination which can- not fail to bring him success.

C., 43 Treasurer, 2g Varsity Baseball Team, 4. Ray is quiet, unassuming and gracious. Under a rather reserved demeaner is hid- den, the gay, loveable temperament ad- mired by all who know him. He is gen- erous, almost to a fault and his mag- nanimous nature just won't let him be petty or mean. As a student he is un- usually cleverg he grasps a subject quickly and without apparent effort he passes all Exams very creditably. In whatever he undertakes, Ray works with unabating energy and conscientiousness until he can regard the accomplishment of things with pride and satisfaction. His hobby is baseball. Ray, is congenial, faithful and capable. The class of '26 is justly proud to claim him as its own. Page thirty-five if 9 'El

Ed. a real scholar. a born leader, and :i V .1 he ' DAVID V. LENAHAN EDWARD W. LEWIS Haskell St. Anse1m's. EDQ Eddie. De La Salle Grammar. H SJ Dave Debating Sneietyg Prom Committee, 3, 43 Vice Fnotlmll, 3, 45 Baseball, 3, 45 Track Manager, Pwsldelll- 23 Manager of Baseball, 4' 45 Swimming, 3, 45 Class Relay, 3, 4. Dave entered De La Salle in Sep- tember 1924. In the two years that he has been with us, he has made many friends and most important of all has been able to keep them. As an athlete, Haskell has proven himself worthy of 3. regular berth on the swimming team, the baseball team and the football team. In the Senior year Haskell was intrusted with the responsible position of track manager: and it must be admitted he filled this position in a very efficient man- ner. The class room is always merry when Dave is around. His original humor and dry wit have brought him much popularity. Dave intends to take up the study of Physical Training and we know that he will realize his ambition, In leaving us Dave we bid you a fond farewell and hope that the fellows we inieet through life will be as true as you. We may characterize Dave as capable, willing, enthusiastic, and humorous. perfect gentleman. is one of the few men in our section whom we might call a dyed- in-the-wool De La Sallitep All his school days have been spent under the Red and Blue of Old De La Salle. One of Eddiels greatest characteristics is his staunchness to friends. It takes time for him to seal a friendship with you, but when he does it lasts. His good nature has made him quite a favorite among all those who know him. Besides being personally at- tractive, he also possesses real ability. Ed has never been found wanting in his studies, but has always stood on the safe side of the scholastic balance. He has confined his athletic energies to the managerial positions of sports. In his Sophomore and junior years, he was as- sociate editor for the Record. His un- tiring efforts contributed greatly to the success of our Junior Prom. Class work holds no terrors for him, and so next year he is OH' to Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Though we part as class- mates, let us hope that our friendship will always endure.
