GEORGE P. GARVEY Georgie Chaminade High School Interesting and humorous of conversation, George has a keen knowledge in a diversity of subjects due to his devotion to many hobbies. When it comes to athletics, Ge0rge's prefer- ence lies with intramural sports and swimming, while his favorite social activity is dancing. A fast man with a word, and one of the most relaxed individuals you will meet, George has found a lasting place in our treasure chest of memories. He will always be recalled as a student and a steady friend. German Club 1, 3.' Sodality 1, 2,' Mimer and Mummerr 1, 2,' Cade! Caplain R. 0. T.

GEBHARDT Bob Navy Andrew jackson High School Fordham '45 It takes a well-rounded fellow to be able to make above average grades as well as to keep a position on the varsity basketball team, but when Bob combines these with the more than full-time job of supporting his wife and two children by after school work, then the people whose interests lie in but one field can well sit up and take notice. And it is just this determination to do all these things well and the ability to succeed at it that commands the respect of those who know him.

MATTHEW G. GALLIGAN Garvey Army Hamden H. S. Fordham ex '45 Garvey hails from the Nutmeg State, the home of many prominent Fordhamites. Unrufiled by trifles, he has made many friends here at Fordham. A creditable scholastic rating, coupled with an interest and participation in debating, have given Garvey's associates the assurance that such accomplish- ments indicate a promising future in law where his ability should pay a deserved dividend.

Bergen junior College ex '42 The stringent routine of a Chemistry major has forced Duke to eschew the athletic field of late. Before total capitulation to the demands of the test-tubes, he found time to distinguish himself as a member of the football, basketball, and baseball teams. His greatest thrill was hitting a homer against Newark in the ninth with two out, thereby breaking up a no-hitter. By way of rounding out the whole man, his convivial nature makes him a welcome addition to any gathering.

GAROFALLOU Georgie Stuyvesant High School Georgie's first love is classical music, but he has not let this commendable avocation deter him from his pursuit of a degree, which he will use as a step to law school. His friends have found him serious, loyal and an earnest student. They confidently expect that these characteristics will distinguish a happy and fortunate future in the post-academic world.
