Acolyte l2l, Waiter l2l, Choir lil, Honor Roll lil, Annual Staff lil, Chronicle l2l, Intramural Basketball l3l, Baseball ll I, Dramatics ll l, L Club lil. AIan's three years at St. Leo were truly eventful. His friendly smile was a common sight on the every day campus. His droll sayings got many a hearty laugh. A sports enthusiast, he played all sports, was sports editor of our annual, and, in general, might even have figured outa trig problem by football signals. Another of the men about town, Alan is said to have spent his time: one-third in bed, one-third in Dade City, and one-third at H. N. A., cheering up the Blue Birds . On the serious side, Alan's departure will leave many a brok- en heart lH. N. A.l, and his daily presence will be missed here. To him we say: Good luck, and happy hunting at F. S. U. IOSEPH FUERST San Antonio, Florida Honor Roll l l l. Joe is another day hop from San Antonio, and St. Leo's ver- sion of the Thin Man. But this slim figure in no way impedes Joe's slate of activities. Joe finds plenty to do in his spare time. He is a strong addict of the baseball games not only as a spectator, but as a member of San Ann independent organizations. As friendly as they come, .loe is popular among his classmates. Quiet and unassuming in the classroom, yet Joe takes a front seat in studies. No matter what position you assume in later life, Joe, we see a prosperous future there for you! CARL GUDE San Antonio, Florida Honor Court l2l . Carl is a day student who possesses an industrious mind. He does a variety of things well. He has attained excellent marks in his four years here and his nimble mind should carry him a long way in future years. Baseball occupies much of his extra time. ln his tenure at St. Leo, Carl has exhibited a forte in science studies, and it's a mat- ter of time until Carl reaches the pinnacle of success, with that scientific interest of his!

Where there's activity, there's John Soupy Dion. No other student can boast the filled activity list Soup shows in his six years at St. Leo. As the editor of the annual, and its chief driving force, Soup deserves plaudits for his zealous labor. Longest in attendance, yet shortest in size, Soupy typifies the ideal student, for he holds honors in the classroom, in the student governing body, and on the athletic field. Soupy's sports schedule is one to be envied for he has been a first stringer in basketball and baseball for two years. Soupy has gained eight L's , having participated also in track and foot- ball. ln the classroom John also was out front, for he gained the scholastic trophy twice and the coveted class pin once.

John always has a smile on his face no matter how dark the outlook. His amiable personality has made him a popular senior, never lost for a cheery word. His smallish stature has made him the butt of many iokes which he takes graciously, but with a prompt good natured retort. John has played in all four maior sports, besides being an active participant in swimming, and tennis, his outstanding game. The monitors were bestowed with a worthy member to their illustrious ranks when he became Monitor John in his iunior year. In this position John, or Red as we know him, has done a com- mendable iob in leading the youth of the school. Here's to Red , with our best wishes for the future! IOHN I. EGAN. IR. Newport, Rhode Islam! L Club ll, Football ll l, Basketball Ill, Baseball l2l, Chroni- cle Editor Ill, Annual Staff Ill, Honor Court lll, Choir Ill, Honor Roll ll l, Intramural basketball lll, School Publicity lll, Acolyte ll l, Sodality lll. Although Jack has been with us not quite two years, he has accomplished more in the line of school spirit, than many in three times as long. One of the most capable editors the Chronicle has ever boasted, Jack has displayed his skill as well on the basketball court and the football gridiron. Having the title of the most stu- dious senior hasn't seemed to bother Jack in the least. He has kept right on plugging, and who knows: he might win the class pin yet. From his Newport accent he is considered straight off Beacon Hill. But, really, Jack has made himself a regular guy among his classmates. Jack is always ready to tell you of his pastimes in the hub of the old society, Newport.

If any thing ever needs to be spirited up, you can always count on him. He has been with us four years. lt has been a pleasure to be associated with Delbert, because for one thing, you could always count on him to look on the good side of life when everything appeared to be going unfavorably. He has made quite a scholastic record, not once failing to make the honor roll during his stay. Also, he did his part when athletics came around, whether varsity football or intramural sports. Del was the kind of a guy who would always help out in any situation. It is people like this, that won't be forgotten- especially by Patsy! RAYMOND O. IIOVVID Detroit. lVlic'l1ignn Honor Court ll l, Acolyte Il l, Annual Staff ill, Honor Roll l3l, Band ll l, Class Officer ill, Intramural Basketball ll l, Track I I l, Swimming l I l, Baseball I I l. Voted the wittiest person of the class was our boy, Ray-Ray. No person could have lived up to this title better than he. Because of his devilish pranks he gave many a student a wholesome laugh. With his iolly attitude on life, he isn't expected to encounter many hardships which he can't overcome by his gift of gab and bluff. On the serious side, there was nothing too big or too small for him to handle. With his fine scholastic record he proved an outstanding student. He showed the same results on the track team and in the intramural sports. In his three years at St. Leo he always had a good word for everyone, one of the many reasons for his popularity among the students. His ability to be the life of the party is only one of his many fine traits. Ray is indeed a credit to St. Leo. IAMES T.

Tiny is an exceptional person. His name suggests someone rather small. In this case he doesn't live up to his nickname. He is the biggest member of the class, and one of the most popular. As a monitor, Tiny has certain duties which he must per- form, one of these being, waking up sleepy Senior Alley at 6:30 in the morning. At that time he is probably the most unpopular person in the school. lt's a wonder his big body hasn't been the obiect of a few alarm clocks. But seriously, Tiny's efforts have been really appreciated. Way up there in Senior Alley nobody ever seemed to hear the bells in the morning, so Tiny was a human alarm clock. In sports he stood out in basketball, as he played center on this year's team. Because of his always friendly attitude and good sportsmanship, he won't be forgotten for a long time. TWENTY-FOUR
