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.

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.

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.

19 4 2 — Twenty-one JOHN CONWAY One Wing St. Columba If John continues his interest in electricity as earnestly as he is now doing, who knows what strides he may make in the scientific world. John was much at ease while acting as chairman for the debating club and seemed to take a sp2cial delight in the open forum discussions. He is ever ready to take his part of a joke and is clever enough to turn th? tables on the originator many times. CARMEN CORTES •Carmen” St. Patrick Carmen is a whiz in mathematics and sings like a nightingale. She loves swimming, bowl- ing. tennis, and is a second Eleanor Powell on the dance floor. There is nothing she loves more than an evening of dancing. Carmen has a strong character and her pleasing per- sonality has attracted many friends. She would do anything rather than hurt another’s feelings. Once she makes a friend she always keeps him, regardless.
