PATRICK JOSEPH CRISTELLO Unconrciout humor .H-.-ff-N pq - WILLIAM ALOYSIUS CONDON I never think of the future, it comer .toon enough Bill instinctively dislikes anything academic on first sight. Preferring to attain athletic prominence, carefree Eight-ball has become a mainstay of the football, basketball and baseball teams. In football he was an end and played well both on the defensive and offensive. He played J.V. and Varsity basketball with his characteristic spirit of team work. In baseball he covered the keystone sack and his heavy bat carried a large share of the championships won. Every morning before school, Bill can be seen sauntering down to the store for his Daily News so he can keep up with the state of the world. Eight-ball has always managed to live up to his nick-name. His sheepish grin makes him appear guilty even when he isn't. After gradu- ation Bill plans to join the Navy. Hailing from Ardsley High in his junior year, Pat became a very welcome member of the class of '5 1. He soon established his reputation in the fields of sports and music. Playing gal- lantly on the football team, he plunged through the line or carried the ball around end for many gains. He fought hard for Dobbs Ferry and was often seen limping or wrapped in bandages-testimonies of his drive and spirit. He has also played basketball and j.V. baseball. Pat's bass voice has con- tributed decidedly to the Mixed Chorus and Double Sextet. As a member of the band he played the baritone with his customary zeal. Our cheerful and conscientious classmate was often seen in school during the noon hour handing out candy and joking with everyone. After graduation Pat plans to attend a liberal arts college and study chemistry. Page fifteen

Q ELAINE LOUISE COMEAU Art is powef Elaine, an artist through and through even to her tempera- ment, is unquestionably one of our most talented classmates. Whenever there is a poster to be made, a sign to be lettered, or an illustrating job to be done, she is ready and willing. She gave much of het time and talent to the Art Club and other school activities. The shield which she designed, has been used on several pages of this yearbook. Besides being an accomplished artist, Elaine is a talented singer and actress. She took part in many Dramatic Club productions and was a particularly graceful and vivacious Peep-Bo in The Mikado . Nor are these all her gifts. She is an active equestrienne as well, and has spent many Saturday mornings in the saddle.

v ,f fi Q if THOMAS LEE ELFTMAN He'll fnd 4 way JANICE DORENE CROFT There is sweet music here Janice was a new addition to our class this year. Her warm- hearted nature and sincerity have made us all like her. Al- though she skipped a year, Janice has found time from her studies to take part in many activities. Her interest in music has been shown all through high school by her participation in the Mixed Chorus and Girls' Octet. She has also performed on the piano in the schools' talent shows. The Dramatic Club was able to use her talents to good advantage in such plays as The Pampered Darling and The Christmas Carol. Her interpretation of Mrs. Skinner in the Senior Play helped make it a success. In college Janice plans to major in journal- ism. Her writing ability and genuine interest in other people will make her a good newspaper woman. Tommys courteous, calm and competent manner could well be imitated by us all. In his unobtrousive, business-like way, he gets things done. D. F.'s stage crew captain is con- stantly tinkering with clocks, radios and inventions in gen- eral-he is a whiz repairman. Tom gets a lot of enjoyment from his leisure pastimes. His room at home is the wonder of all who see it-a showcase of gadgets and collections of all kinds, including exhibits from his array of hobbies. Our blond and blue eyed mechanic is always neat and informally well groomed. Although studious, he is never too absorbed in class- work to ignore activities. Mr, Fix-It has been especially active in his Junior and Senior years, participating in the Chorus, Projection Club, Photography Club, Blu-White News and the Periauger. Tom's favorite subject is science. He wants to continue his studies at Cornell, aiming at a future in Con- servation. n Page sixteen
