His endless supply of jokes makes him welcome in any crowd. Bud has a wide range of knowledge and if you ask him about swing music he can tell you the facts with amazing accuracy. His favorite sayings “Him Did?” and “Definitely!” pop at the most appropriate times. The Golden Rule is his motto and we are sure he lives up to it. THOMAS BREMER “Duma” St. Michael Tom’s personality is one that attracts friends, many of them. He is always ready with some form of amusement. He is prob- ably the most noted authority the school has on swing and jazz, but he has a keen appre- ciation of the c'assical also. His record col- lection is second to none. Next in Tom’s likes is roller-skating. “Duma” falls very easily into verse. He might well be ranked as poet laureate of the senior boys—no. not girls. ANN BRLANSKY ‘ Dimples” SS. Peter and Paul With a cheerful word for everybody. Ann has unconsciously woven a web of gratitude around her classmates. As a mathematician she was the secret joy of her teacher. No one surpassed her in the vigor with which she tackled problems, nor in the stubborn perse- verance with which she gained their solution. This peppy lass is one of our best dancers. Her personality and her ability to make friends and keep them will keep her moving along the road to future happiness. BERNARD BROSIG “Moon” St. Joseph Although a great sport lover he never takes part in any sport except for a little baseball. He finds a lot of fun in following up the Major Leagues Baseball and College Football scores. •Moon” is in an ecstasy when driving his Olds- mobile. He is a quiet tut sometimes alarming boy and is a very hard worker. His hobby is saving stamps and postcards, not to men- tion the pieges that fall from his “Merry Olds- mobile”.

He was known as the “iron man” for the “Crimson Crusher” during his four years at Catholic High. He received this name because of his ability to stay in the game for sixty minutes. He specializes in art which is his favorite pastime. He received his name “Suicide” from his teammates who claimed that he was always ready to take some chance. WILLIAM BOTTER “Bill” St. Patrick The Class of 1942 has in its folds the person of William Botter. A student of ihe highest type, he can easily be recognized by the expression “It’s a hard world”. He was President of the Commercial Club and fulfilled his duties efficiently. His journalistic ten- dencies are clearly shown in his office as editor of “The Chatterbox”. In his spare time he usually can be found playing the drums, and he seems most happy when “beating it out”.

Club May Crowning .1 Home Nursing 4 Handmaid 1-2-3-4 MARY LOUISE BRUNYAK “Lou St. John Hers is the lovely smile that has brightened many clouds which have overshadowed her path and those of others. Lou may always be seen doing a good deed for one of our staff members or in the cafeteria where she has proved herself a great aid. Lou likes to writs letters, dance and roller-skate. One of her greatest treasures is her poetry scrap book from which she obtains much enjoyment dur- ing her scanty leisure.

She is always willing to be generous and help us through our difficulties. Although “Ruthie” is a quiet student, she enjoys a gook joke. She is neat and unobtrusive, qualities which make her dear to all of us. She is loyal to her friends and dependability can be numbered among her virtues.

Buck is one of those rare personages, always anxious lest the pall of gloom descend over the crowd. He is ever ready to spring an unsuspected jok on his classmates. And does he know how to handle a Ford! As he has succeeded in his school days, so we wish that he will succeed ir. the later years.
