He h t a-ll and leaves us with the Hnest impression of a youth who ciable and gentlemanly. THOMAS PATRICK EGAN Tom boasts of a little of this and a little of thatg to wit, athletic ability, a ine sense of humor, an aptitude for studies, and a certain blandness of appearance that many characterize as handsome poise. Tom was never successful in his efforts to make a varsity team, but he was a member of every class team that represented his room. Tom is the possessor of the typical La Salle spirit. Manhattan College may well be proud when he matriculates in September. JAMES WILLIAM FEELEY For the past four years, James has journeyed to La Salle from North Provif dence. He is a pleasant young gentleman and always has a smile for everyone. Any teacher may be sure of an answer from him and, if he is not correct Che usually isj, he is sure to be humorous. His indoor sport is upholding arguments brought up in the Latin Class by the politicianfs son from Woonsocket. James is the owner of jet black curly hair that is envied by every senior. FRANCIS JOSEPH FEENEY Frank is one of Mount Pleasant's numerous representatives at La Salle. He attributes his popularity to his having one of the best Latin horses in the school. We have all learned to appreciate his dry humor, which is set off by a background of natural quietness. Francis has been a supporter of all athletic teams, and has taken part in our interclass sports. Withal he has found time to absorb the required subjects, and some collegiate portal is waiting for him. ELMER RICHARD FERGUSON If we were asked to describe Elmer, ur description would be an indirect one. First, we would think of th eather and mention the month of March. Secondly, w oul ' Elm r's name and point him out as being directly the o p r h. where March winds bluster, Elmer is quietg where arcli nothing, Elmer means somef thing. In short, he has endear d ' e f to his classmates because he is genuine. Could there be a greater compliment? Thirtyeight
