As well as being academically acclaimed, he soon became the idol of his fellow classmates. He has also been an important figure in both varsity base- ball and basketball. A great many baseball victories can be accredited to the superb pitch- ing and hitting of this rising athlete.

Since freshman year he has proven himself excellent in both the fields of study and athletics. George has done a great deal for the class basketball team, with his well used height. He is well liked by his fellow classmates and Brothers alike. George also rates high in the social world outside of school. There aren't many activities which George hasn't taken part in. He is a likely candidate for college, which is his main ambi- tion. The urge to travel, however, is beginning to hit George, and don't be surprised if he sees the world as a Leatherneck first. 1947

His spirit through the four years has been one of co- operationg willingness to assist in anything that meant something to his class or his school.

And when all is said and done, he has accomplished all things well.-We all know thatra boy who has this quality, will succeed in whatever course he chooses in later years: and yet Jim has added to this ability a facility for making fast friends, for making himself a welcome part of everything he enters. This is why we think Jim has a fine future ahead of him. 1947 Edward Ferry Healey BIG ED St. Ioan of Arc.
