MARIO JOSE CABRERA “The most important thing in life is not the triumph, but the struggle; the essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well. Make stepping stones out of your failures, my friends, and you shall have success.” Science, Chemistry Mario was the only Spanish delegate in the Science class. He was a very serious type and his chief concern was for his studies. His main extramural activity was going right from the chemical lab to his girl friend’s house. Mario plans to be an Industrialist.

18 RAYMOND DIONNE “Keep your mouth shut and let everyone think you are stupid, don’t open it and prove it.” Science, Engineering Ray was considered as one of the more brilliant students.
