CHARLES MIZGALA “The poet only asks to get his head into the heavens. It is the logician who seeks to get the heavens into his head. And it is his head that splits.” Science, Engineering Chuck, an eight year man, is one of the real thinkers in the class. Always ready to help out, you can be sure he will do the right thing, even though every one else disagrees with him. He almost caused an uproar this year with his views on proper attire. A truly good worker, Chuck is sure to do well at McGill where he intends to obtain his Bachelor of Engi- neering. CHARLES O’CONNOR “A man is only as good as his word.” Science Chuck was appropriately named “Angles” because he knew them all. He first came to Loyola from Regiopolis and started out in a pre-medical course. After thinking it over, he thought about his abilities to get around by knowing all the “Angles” so he went into Law. To prove he is going to take Law (In Ontario), his pet peeve is Mr. Duplessis. ACTIVITIES: Junior Varsity Hockey '55-'56. JOHN PRENDERGAST Science, Engineering “The greatest of faults is to be conscious of none.” John is another of our eight year men. He’is famous for his “Bull Sessions” in the drafting room, and always ready to discourse on any subject, particularly his pet peeve Maurice Duplessis. Never known to lose his temper, John can become quite serious when talking of his two favourite teams, the Alouettes and the Canadiens. His plans for the future are indefinite.
