That sunny September day seemed bleak and terrible to that shy group of freshmen. gathered together in the audi- torium of De La Salle. about to embark on their high school career. It seemed as though they were scared to look or to smile at each other. but there was one who did look and did smile. This was Stephen Reidy. His small frame has been more than amply made up for by the broad smile which has lighted his visage through his four years in De La Salle. An excellent student. a gentleman, and a supporter of De La Salle are but three of the attributes of this fine fellow. Steve has distinguished himself as debater. and in his hands, managership of basketball as well as Class A. A. Representation, have received excellent care. EDWIN J. SAI-IM He Ilan! bulb knowledge .rpareih wofd.f. Ed. Creston Junior H. S. Clan Relay 2g Arclaconfraiernily 2, 3, 4, Ed entered De La Salle in the Septem- ber of 1927 from Creston Junior H. S. in the city of New York. From the first, he showed his willingness to work and has always been in the fore scholastically. He can talk on a variety of subjects but his favorite topic is a discussion on the ab- sorbing subject, radio. That boy sure knows his grid-leaks and audio frequen- cies. Ed expects to spend the next four years or so at some nearby college, to lit himself for a career as an electrical en- gineer. His calm, collected manner in ad- dition to his active intelligence. will carry him far in his chosen profession. Out- side his studies he has-found time to en- tertain the school very successfully with his tickling the ivories. - Perhaps some day Ed will build a per- fect radio reproducer or advance a revo- lutionary theory in electricity. but what- ever he does he will do it well. ,..',N View .-15,v.:,4,y.fg.,, 1 fe.: ..

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.

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

C. 1, 2, 3. It was a beautiful autumn morning four years ago when the sun entered the class in the person of Big Ed Shaw. A most unusual chap was he because of his evident desire to work hard. His worth was soon realized for he was elected class president in his second year, quite a dull year for Dan because of an excess of work. In third year he came back strong and was elected treasurer of the combined Junior classes. Holding the money didn't bother much and his fiery speeches gained more friends for him. Dan carried on and received fur- ther honors by being made athletic rep- resentative of the senior class and also a member of the Torch staff. Good luck, Ed. and may further success be yours. WILLIAM SHEEHAN Lou-'lifzerr it the bare of every virtue, and lae who gaer the lower! build: tloe higberlf' Bill, Deacon Normal School, Pocantico Hills Anlzconfmterrzily 3, 4,' Debating 3. When our Junior year began. Bill Sheehan joined the ranks of the third year, after having made an enviable rec- ord for himself at St. Josephs Normal Institute, Pocantico Hills. Ever since he came to De La Salle he has been con- sidered by all a real fellow. a good mixer and last but not least a staunch friend. Bill's worthy qualities were soon ap- preciated, for he was chosen to represent the class on the debating team. He im- mediately proved the wisdom of his choice by his admirable efforts in the en- suing contest. Bill occupies a justly earned position in that group of fellows who never fear the results of the quar- terly exams. He always manages to suc- ceed no matter how stiff or in what the test may be. On to successes Bill, and carry our best wishes with you. 1950
