REVEREND ROBERT H. STAFFORD Philosophy How quickly we grasped the Thomistic The- ory of Prime Matter and Substantial Form so deply impressed upon our intellects by striking Vogue pastels! We never did find out what the last line is to O, ente mobile . . .”?? How can we forget those famous last words as he leaves us on our honor during exams — I ' m going downstairs to effect a substantial change! ” Room 12 so often took on the appearance of schema- decked blackboards with shades of red and green. Father is to be remembered for his patient ex- planations, unassuming wisdom, boyish airs and exceptional ability to bring his erudition within our scope. With just a bit of friendly persua- sion” Father would be escorted to the gym be- fore Proms or the smoker before vacation where his genialty continued to capture our hearts.

REVEREND JOSEPH A. BURKE Religion A disarming smile, a humorous twinkle escaping from his Irish eyes, a gentleness in his diminutive frame — these are a Freshman’s first impressions of Father. His exuberant spirit and the warmth of his friendliness won our hearts. His reception and ap- proach to young, green collegiates provoked our confi- dence as well as our confidences. His outward, refresh- ing cheerfulness and the simplicity and sincerity of his soul did not elude us. Though we Elmites will cherish many a happy moment we rapped out the chant of Michaelmen, our thoughts will search deeper to an appreciation of that enrichment of our college years — a purpose in making life worth living. As we take our place in the army of Christ, we will walk with Father ' s complete confidence in us as bearers of Christ to men.

REVEREND ROGER L. VIAU Philosophy We of ’57 can’t help claiming a special kin- ship with Father; we were his introduction to the Elms, and he, ours to philosophy. Where else would one hope to find such down-to-earth in- formality coupled with a seemingly inexhaust- ible knowledge of the purest abstraction? En- couraging us always with his understanding smile, Father makes every piece of the mosaic of philosophy into a thrilling discovery. Armed with a formidable collection of notebooks and briefcases, he glances out the window for a brief second, and then divulges an Aristotelian gem, followed by the characteristic pause for our ges- ture of acknowledgment. We have so many re- membrances of Father Viau, and he will live forever in our fondest memories of O.L.E.
