SEE YUEN SIM Science Pre-Med “He who loses wealth loses much, he who loses a friend loses more; but he who loses courage loses all.” Sim is another of our students from around the world — Hong Kong to be exact. During his four years here at Loyola See Yuen has shown himself a steady and good worker, and his fellow students give best wishes to a man they know and like. KENNETH FRANCIS SLOAN Science Engineering “Education is what you have left after you have forgotten all that you have learnt.” Ken is another alumnus of Catholic High, entering Loyola in his Sopho- more year with a second Scholarship-to his credit. He has proven himself worthy of both of them in his three years. Although he is small in stature, he is sure to be big in the Engineering Field. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: football ’57-’58; basketball ’55 ’56 ’57 ’58. HERMANN FRIEDMANN SOLTENDIECK Science (Mining Engr.) “I have not yet begun to fight.” Hermann came to us from New York, via Ulm, Germany. Having completed his final year of High at Sir George, Herm, because he is this year’s only Mining Engineer, spends most of his time studying — except for the daily bridge game in the Senior drafting room. Always ready with a timely joke, Herm’s only reaction to hard work was “Himmel Himmel.” One bee sure he’ll jolt the Mining Industry after he gets his degree from eGill. ACTIVITIES: Varsity Soccer ’54-’55-’56; Intramural: Basketball and floor hockey. 13

JOHN SOPKO Science (Mech. Engr.) “God helps those who help themselves.” A Native of Montreal, he comes to Loyola from St. Patrick’s and D’arcy McGee. An easy going fellow, his friendly nature seldom places him far from a crowd. John has as his primary aim — the securing of a B. Se. in Mechanical Engineering at McGill.

Engr.) “It is better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth, and prove it.” Lloyd is an eight year Loyola man with a three year break between high school and college. A native of Montreal and Sorel, he set up, during the spring of 1957, a most ingenious organization, a system of obtaining the belles of Sorel as dates for cold and lonely Loyola surveyors. Next year he plans to seek his B. Sc. in Mechanical Engineering in the U‘S. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: softball, baseball, hockey, basketball. CHARLES TANNER JR. Science (Mech. Engr.) “It is not failure but low aim that is the crime.” Charlie, born in Montreal on Sept. 29, 1935, entered Loyola from Catholic High. Through the years his sense of humor and his personality have earned him a considerable number of friends. His interest in internal com- bustion engines and a certain blond take up most of leisure time. In both fields, things look bright for Charlie.
