The 'iliotc li DENNIS O'CONNELL A prirzcelier looking man never rtepl thru a p1'mre'.f ball. Dinty, Dennis Xavier Clan relay 1, 2, 3,' Clair Barketball 2, 3, 4,' K. D. C. 1, 2, 3, 4: Mgr. of Clan' Bas- ketball 4,' A. A. Reprefentatitfe 4. It is not often that one meets such a fascinating personage as we find in Dinty. Although slight in stature hc has those things in his make-up that suggest manli- ness and beget friendship and respect. However small Dinty is regarded by-all, and not unjustly, as being one of the intelligentia of the class. So much is this manifested that the class saw lit to elect him A. A. Representative and Manager of the Class basketball team. Lest we forget, we must say that Dinty is a pugilist of no uncertain record. His tales about the days of John L. often held the entire class in mute astonishment until the bell rang announcing the winner. XVc are sure that We will miss our little pal whose sterling qualities are sure to guide him to success throughout his future life. Promising as a scholar, as a student and as a gentleman, however small, Dennis O'Connell. CHARLES PASSLER Thy modexty if a candle to thy merit. Charlie. Schmaltz Holy Name School K. D.

In Charlie Passler we have a fellow who is one of the staunchest supporters of De La Salle in all his activities. Schmaltzing'haben, as he is familiarly known, has represented De La Salle on two of its varsity athletic teams. He staged a surprise toward the end of the Cross Country season by advancing to the position of second man on the var- sity team. His hobby, strange to say. is Chemistry, and Brother Charles and he often leave the class in complete bewil- derment during their discussions of for- mulae and theories. Charlie has made a host of friends during his four years in his Alma Mater. In his various activi- ties at school he has shown the neces- sary qualities to carry him to success in any walk of life that he may enter. We now say Good Bye to our good friend and classmate. l ii U -' ri g V 5 9. - l F. ,. 11 I.

Th e 'iliortzli GERVAIS McDONOUGH If muric be the load of mind, play on. Mac, Micky George Washington Secretary of the Clan 1, 2, J,' Organist 3, 4. Four years ago a student came to De La Salle. Prom whence? No one knew. Through a series of investigations we found that his name was Mac, that he came from George Washington and that he could playa piano. Until the first examinations this was all we could find out about Mac. Then we found him to be an exceptional student who had a wonderfully winning personality. So high did the class opinion of him soar that they elected him secretary three suc- cessive years. a feat that nobody in any other office in the class has duplicated. Although he is not athletically inclined, Mac has followed the teams in their va- rious endeavors with the real De La Salle spirit. Although the report has not been substantiated. it has been rumored that he intends to be a professor. But for Mac we have a fond farewell and best wishes for success in his enterprise. ROBERT C. NUGENT Acxiom :peak louder than u-'ordx. Rog. Bob Xavier High Barkeiball 3. 4,' Captain 4,' Barelzall J, 4,' Track 3,' Clan Relay 3,' Spar!! Com- mitleef Arcbronfraremily 3, 4. Two years ago De La Salle threw open her doors to welcome smiling Bob Nugent. He was assigned to 3A and in about twenty minutes hc had everyone calling him Bob. Our associations with Rog have shown him a student. a sports- man and a gentleman. Rog has always kept well on the safe side of his studies and as an all-around athlete there are few to compare with him. Since he chose De La Salle as his Alma Mater, he has won for himself laurels in basketball, baseball and track. Soon after his en- trance, he won for himself a berth on the regular basketball team and the year after was elected captain. In baseball he proved to be one of the outstanding shortstops in the city high schools. Bob expects to enter Manhattan where he is going out for the football team, which we are sure he will make. ln parting, Rog takes with him our sincerest wishes for future success. at fn lwyig .. fi' ,

I5 Croix Country 3, 4,' Track 3, 4,' Clan Relay 1, 3,' Batketball 1, 2, 3, 4,' K. D. C. 2, 3, 4. Frank hails from Brooklyn. True enough this is a handicap, but we found that the misfortune bears no ill-effects upon our hero from a foreign country. Since Quinnie came to De La Salle he has been constantly working for his Alma Mater. Shortly after the opening of school Frank showed his athletic abil- ity by joining the class basketball team and the relay team. In his junior year Frank joined the cross country squad and was one of the mainstays during the entire season. Frank has one weakness and that is Rudy Vallee . Time and time again we hear him dashing in and out .of the classroom yelling Heigh-Ho everybody at the top of his lungs. Quinme has the true De La Salle spirit rooting heartily for every team to win. In his future battles we know he will succeed as he has done with us. JAMES G. REIDY Il i.r the mimi that maker the man. Jim, Red Incarnation T1'eam1'er of Arcbrofzfralernily 4,' Arrb- corzfraternily 1, 2, 3, 45 K. D. C. 1, 2, 3. 4,' Cormcilmafz K. D. C. 2, 5, 4,' Clair Bus- .eelball 2. In 1926 the corridor of De La Salle was brightened by the beaming smile of Jim. He was an active student and en- thusiastic supporter of all the teams in his Freshman vear. In second year we found he had not lost any of his qualities and had gained prominence by becoming Councilman of the Knights of the Divine Child, of which he has been a member for four years. He also played an active part on the class basketball team during this year. When he returned in his Ju- nior year he carried on his work in the K. D. C. and experienced no difficulty in his studies. In his Senior year he was the Treasurer of the Archconfraternity, due, no doubt, to his smile and win- ning personality. Now in parting we bid him a fond au revoir. l95Q
