RAYMOND MICHAEL KELLY Ray is a youth who manages to keep himself in the background, after his work has been accomplished No idle boasts escape his lips, nor does he indulge in the flare for pseudo comics. He takes his work seriously and accomplishes it with great results. No activity at La Salle has been a minor one to Ray, and while not actively participating in many of them, they have been helped along by his support. Q RAYMOND GEDEON LAMBERT A firm believer in dignified conduct at all times, Ray is persevering in his efforts to uphold the dignity of the Senior Class. By way of research, however, we Hnd in his records that he has always been active in extraf curricular activities. During his stay at La Salle, Ray found time to play football, and to take part in Glee Club activities. We are sure that the future holds great things for him. ANGELO LAPOLLA It has been said that Music hath charms. Through the medium of his violin, Angelo has acquired the friendship of all his associates.

wlllllfllw - Z 'r H o Nl-IA N r E K W WILLIAM FRANCIS HANLEY Some people it seems were born to depress others, some to inspire others, and some to impart a note of cheer to others, these we feel, make up the general run of humanity. And of these we are convinced that Bill belongs to the last named group. His cheerfulness, his disarming smile, and the keen interest that he seems to have in everyone's doings, soon made him a popular figure at La Salle. Columbia University has sounded its clarion for Billy. JOSEPH HENRY HARRINGTO Here is a youth whose r ' ' s e ble the best and the most favored. A rb aring h'e ' unerring way.

Qfte is name was inscribed on the h or roll, but at the same time track laimed him, and he was one of the big guns in La Salle's quest for th hampionship. Holy Cross is joe's next stop. RUSSELL LEONARD HUNT Russ came into our midst in his junior year. He hails from Woonsocket. His name has graced the honor roll several times and he has won his share of Silver L's. Russ plays guard on his class basketball team and always gives a good account of himself. He plays baseball and he is a member of the varsity track squad. So it is with the best wishes for the future that we leave Russ. FRANCIS ANTHONY KELLIHER This somber lad hails from South Providence. His outstanding accom' plishment is his literary work on the Maroon and White. It is a usual sight to see him carry a little brown bag wherein lies the answer to where Frank will spend the evening. His avowed intention is to be' come a physician. Georgetown will be the scene of his further conquests. Fortyftwo

I I J Q N wi J :lHlll! i .. Z TH oN AN -re ldv JOHN JOSEPH LEFEBVRE Joe's chief claim to fame while at La Salle lies in his ability to make the teams. Many times have headlines told us of his great play on the gridiron, diamond and basketball court. Friendliness to all and non- chalance to worries, is Joe's code. He is one of the better dancers and singers of the senior class. We need not worry about Joe's success, his forceful way and persistence will help him immensely.

Only those who are intimate with him realize the sterling qualities of his person' ality that appeal to the good and the virile. In a remarkable comeback, he has mastered his texts, marshalled the forces of the football team to the championship and excelled in the two major dramatic offerings of the year. THOMAS PATRICK WALL Tom is six feet three of political fame. With the good sense that makes him one of La Salle's leading scholars, and that energy which made him one of our track mainstays, as high jumper, he clinches his arguments. Tom put his forensic ability to use in the school debating society. His pen was one of the Marooii and White's best weapons. With his def termination, we feel he will be a success in his chosen college, Brown. Fortyffour
