As a six year man he really knows the ins and outs. Because of his witty replies to all questions, it is no wonder that his happy- go-lucky attitude has kept with him through the years. Need we mention the many times that Eoghan has popped up with another problem to trick Einstein, such as a two-lined triangle or a square circle ? Just ask the trig class or the physics students about it. While here, Eoghan developed his extraordinary ability in music by his performance back in soprano days and during the last three years, as a featured trombone and trumpet soloist with the St. Leo Stardusters . Never failing to keep his studies above par, without a doubt Eoghan someday, somewhere, will show the world just where Gersh- win left off. Continue the good work, Eoghan, you're going places!

Jim came here two years ago, young and full of ambition along with plenty of good ideas. Now that he is to leave, we realize he has become as much a part of school 1and Dade City, too!1 as the day is long. Jim is far from hard to get along with. Anyone would feel free to trust him with his last penny. lt is things like this that has made us appreciate his friendly personality. His participation on the athletic field has not gone unnoticed either. He played on the first eleven in football, and was a first rate member of the track team. Never anything but a gentleman 1 at all times, he was considered the Casanova of the class. WILLIAM ll. MA1 'S IR.

BiII's rare attitude on life explains how a person can possess the good qualities he does. He has proven worthy of all the credit given him. From him we have learned that patience pays. He hardly ever makes a decision before deliberating on it. Bill, we say, Thanks 5 you have given us a good example to follow. Bill has been a prominent member of all activities during his four year term at St. Leo, especially in undertaking the position as head cheerleader. He was voted by his schoolmates the most likely senior to succeed, showing that he has the ability to excel. For the past two years he was the treasurer of the class, in which he did a fine iob. No need to worry about Bill, he has 1 shown that he has the know how and the ability to handle 1 problems. TWENTY-FIVE

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.

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

Although John is one of the quieter members of the class, this has never interfered with his popularity among the students. It is a common belief that John follows the old saying, Speech is silver, silence is golden . Always the ambitious type, he has played all athletics, among them varsity football. Since he has been such an important part of the class for the past five years, it is generally agreed that he and his vivid imagination will surely be missed. We know that whatever John undertakes will carry plenty of determination. Good luck to you, John! We know that you will make the best of every thing. l JOHN ALAN MEDIER Louisville.

Alan, with his unnoticed way of getting things done and al- ways being helpful, will be remembered by everyone as a true friend. His three years here have shown that a person of his na- ture can get along anytime with anyone. Active in athletics, he played on this year's football team as a lineman, and proved a very valuable player. With his Kentucky constitution and his school spirit, he was admired for both sincerity and initiative. And, we'll all remember those tales about his gal, Joan . Alan's ambition is to be head man of some big construction company, and if he continues to show the same zeal that he has at St. Leo, he should someday get there. Good luck, Alan, you can i be sure that you will always be remembered by all of us. IAMES O'NlfAL l Clearwater.

Football, basketball, baseball and track--Jim O'NeaI has entered into all these sports and won accolades galore. In foot- ball, Jas was selected a Little All-stater, in basketball he scored well over lO0 points and has been an outstanding member of the track and baseball teams. Jim was voted the school's outstanding athlete, and rightly so. Jim's been attending St. Leo for five years, during which he's been a student leader of high caliber, holding a monitor's position and an Honor Court membership. Choir and band have occupied much of Jim's time, and he avidly adds his voice to group singing. He plays a sweet trumpet which is only natural, since Jim is gifted with musical rhythm. His musical sense is with him on the dance floor, where he is a nifty f stepper. TWENTY-SIX
