This is a familiar question heard every morning after a basket- ball game. Joe has been a steady member of the Junior Varsity and Varsity basketball squads. If you were to watch him play you could easily tell that he puts his heart and soul in the game. Light, blond and muscular, joe hails from downtown Manhattan, his native land being in Pennsylvania. He entered De La Salle in '43, and ever since has reaped a harvest of friends. This being credited to his jolly, boisterous and friendly personality.

Bob, from Flushing, L.I., has that winning personality added to a brilliant scholastic record, which made him a popular figure at D.L.S. His witty sayings and humorous jokes along with fso the girls say, his cute smile, are the prime reasons for his widespread pop- ularity. During his years on the swimming team he has been its most dependable main- stay. It is said that he has also distinguished himself as a hunter and Fisherman. Yet, out of these many abilities it is probable that his personality and scholastic record explain his decision to be a lawyer. He will study for his degree at Georgetown University.
