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. RUTH BURKHARDT “Ruthie” Immaculate Conception Here is a senior who will always remain in our memories. Her one ambition is to become taller. Sweet, shy describes this little lady. 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. WILLIAM BURNS “Buck” St. Columba Buck is light-hearted and carefree and knows when to be serious and sedate. He is a staunch supporter of activities. 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. MARGARET CALPIN Sacred Heart “Peg” is one of our most attractive Irish lasses from Conemaugh. Her disposition is sweet. Popular? I’ll say she is. She is fend of all sports but gets her greatest enjoyment from dancing. She is sincere and honest with her work. She has been on the honor roll all through high school, an enviable record, in- deed. She is Vice Prefect of the Sodality, and is a true daughter of Mary. Cantata 4 Librarian 2-3-1 Basketball 1-4 Home Nursing 4 T. K. B.

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”.

MEMORIES Twenty ROBERT CASSIDY “Bob” St. John Bob has the qualities which make him ? natural leader. His ambition spurred him on to seek employment while the rest of us were content with play. He’s a smooth dancer which makes him a favorite with all the girls and his singing ability has brought him honor along with the title, “Figaro of Feeder Street. ’ He excels at basket-ball and was a member of the champion team in the sophomore year. GENEVIEVE CHMIEL “Jennie” St. Casimir “Jennie” will have no difficulties in her social life, for, by her earnest study of social problems she will have the solution to every one. Her hobby is writing letters to her num- erous pen pals in various states of the Union. Quiet? Yes, and she has quietly found her way into our hearts, not only as a loyal class- mate. but also as one who shows she has a genuine interest in her friends. Good luck “Jennie”. We hope the world will appreciate your golden quality.

He gets his alias, “Topee”, from always keeping the hair he has neatly combed. George is a very hard worker at home and he is especially in- terested in spreading the news by carrying papers in the evening. His favorite sport is hunting . . . usually a blond about 5' 5 tall who has blue eyes. He has received his tech- nique from the Dale Bugle and Drum Corps with whom he paraded for three years. MARY GENEVIEVE CONLEY “Mary” Visitation A delightful personality plus a heartwarm- ing smile are characteristics truly indicative of Mary, who proudly holds a place among the Irish lassies of the class. She is known for her poise and refinement as well as for her gayety when and where occasion calls. The efficiency shown in her school work marks but another one of Mary’s many commendable traits of character, studiousness. Thus, judg- ing from the brilliant work which she has ren- dered while in our midst, we are quite sure that Mary’s future will be studded with the diamonds of well earned success.
