MARIE CUOMO 1l'fdj0I'Z Elementary Education. Minor: Speech. Degree: B.S. in Education. Aclizfitierz French Clubg Curved Horn Staff, Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4g War Memorial Drive. Marie is one of the few people able to do a favour so graciously as to give the impression that she values the pleas- ure of the person she is helping more highly than she values the time and labor required to help. She is a person endowed with abiding sincerity, the gift of those who possess true peace of mind. VIRGINIA CUSHNER Major: Government. Minor: History. Degree: B.S. Afriifiriefz Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Slim, sophisticated Virginia is the ideal career girl. In her own unobtrusive way, she is completely adult. Calm, efticient, independent, she works with mature determination toward her goal . . . a career in law. Portia herself could do no more. TERRY DE MARTINI Major: Chemistry. Minor: Biology. Degree: B.S. Artivilier: Sodality 1, Mimes and Mummers. Ever since the first day Terry entered Fordham she has dis- played a friendly and fun-loving spirit. Even though she was a campus trotter and a jersey commuter, she found time to avidly particpate in all school functions. Her chic appear- ance accentuates her vivacious nature. ' VINCENT N. DEVIVO Major: History. Minor: Classics QLatin and Greekj. Degree: B.S. in Education. We can't help but admire the ambition of such a person as Vince. He has already started his graduate work in the Ford- ham School of Arts and Sciences. This plus his cordiality will add new friendships to the many he has made here. 19

Artiuiiier: Curved Horn Staff, Managing Editor '46g Editor '47g Grail Staff, Editor '48, Thalians, Vice-President '46g War Memorial Driveg Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Sellless and sane, regal and reliable! What laudable litany could we not write for Lois? Yet, such would displease her very nature and that in itself bespeaks her worth. It is then with restraint that we begin to mention her capabilities. FRANK COOKE Major: English. Minor: Commerce. Degree: B.S. in Education. Ar1iza'itie.r: Gannon Council, Philosophy Club: Thaliansg Sodality 4, Grail Staff. Frank Cooke is the man than whom no one else in Fordham is better dressed. His neatness carries over into the more serious side of his life, where all his present and future actions are orderly and de-terminate. ROBERT F. CRANSTON Major: Social Studies. Minor: History. Degree: B.S, Arfiritier: Photographer for the Maroon Quill , Sodality 1. Bob comes up just long enough from behind cameras and Hashbulbs to give us a friendly nod and a quick smile. His mind is as well-groomed as his appearanceg his manners as casual as his walk. ANDREW CROCCHIOLO Major: History. Minor: Social Studies. Degree: B.S. Educa- tion. Artizfilier: History Club, Acting Secretary: Sodality 2, 3, 4g Class Ofiicer: President, '46. Andy seems to have found the secret of perpetual intellectual motion. Idleness is to him, an unknown quantity. Yet, his good disposition tempers the seriousness of his outlook on life, to make his a balanced personality, a character of unusual depth. 18

BERNICE DOWD Major: Education. Minor: Social Studies. Degree: B.S. in Education. Actirfiliey: E.S.O. We find in Bernice the rare combination of a casual manner and firmness of purpose. We admire the reticence with which she succeeds, and her determination to continue to do so. PATRICK ERICKSON Major: History. Minor: Social Studies. Degree: B.S. Pat's knowledge of politics together with his appreciation of Shakespeare makes an ideal combination. He instigates many interesting conversations and adds to every group discussion by his knowledge and logical approach. ANN ETON Major: History. Minor: Social Studies. Degree: B.S. in Educa- tion. Al'fjl'ffi6.i'C Curved Horn Staiig Grail Staffg War Memorial Drive: Gannon Council: Interracial Clubg Literary Club: His- tory club. Ann has successfully combined the three roles of housewife, mother, and student. She has endeared herself to the class as an energetic leader and untiring scholar. Admiration attests to her unselfish and cooperative class spirit. JOSEPH A. FERRARA Major: Social Studies. Minor: Philosophy. Degree: B.S. Arfi1'itie.f: Sodality lg Debating Society. There is something enviable and admirable in joe's love of music. The easy, friendly quality of his voice is characteristic of his personality. Joe has a vibrant interest in life that is contagious. 20
