BRENDAN FOLEY General “And I pray that I may forget These matters that with myself I too much discuss Too much explain.” T. S. Eliot Let it never be said that Brendan was ever at loss for words for it has been his facility with the English language, in both its written and spoken forms that has characterized his four years at college. A poet of unique and considerable talent, a keen-minded debator and a top notch student, Brendan also gained some notoriety through his critical comments in the NEWS, often causing furors within the college and major explosions at the “annex”. He, like many others, will write the Canadian drama.

ACTIVITY AWARD CARMEN GALILEO General “Chi va piano, va sano ed va lontano.” By stature, short and stocky; by nature, witty and affable; and by choice, ambitious, Carmen possesses the intellectual qualities of mind that have kept him high in his class ever since entering in Sophomore year from Catholic High and McGee. A winner of several awards for public speaking, Carmen now spends most of his time with the Debating Society and the P S Club. Having then all the necessary qualities things look good for Carmen in the field of Cor- poration Law.

EGMONT GAUDIN General “A gentleman is one who thinks mere of other people’s feelings than of his own rights, and more of other people’s rights than of his own feelings.” Underneath Ed’s quiet and unassuming exterior lies a stirring back- ground. Ed spent most of his youth in Europe and came here after the war to take up studies that would eventually lead him to the field of medicine. Sincere best wishes ini your future endeavour Ed. 16

PETER DECARIE “The man that loves and laughs must sure do well.” Pete regularly commutes from Montreal to Three Rivers for purpose, he says, ot collecting his “Unemployment Insurance”. There are BERNARD COSTELLO Pre-Med. “WHY?” Besides casting light (and occasionally the wrong one) upon drab thespians, as a stage crew lighting “expert”, Bernie also plays a mean guitar—and a meaner game of hockey when the occasion arises. A tireless (well, almost) man on the blades, Bernie was adept at making fractious forwards behave themselves. Since he was a pre- med student, he will probably end up as chief medicine man for some tribe in the Belgian Congo. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Basketball ‘55-59; Hockey ‘57-'58, ‘58-'59; Football ‘56-59; Bowling ‘57-'59; Swimming ‘56-59; Junior Varsity Hockey ‘56-'57; Loyola—Marianopolis Bowling League ‘56-’59; URTP ‘55-'56; Drama Society ‘57-59; EIGHT YEAR MAN. ROBERT CUSSEN Pre-Med. “Life is not so short that one should lose respect for others.” Bob made quite an entrance into Loyola from D’Arcy McGee and then graduated in a blaze of glory. He will long be remembered for his steady surgeons hand. One of the best liked fellows in his class, he was a staunch supporter of all activities. From the way he handled his pre-medical studies, Bob should do well in his intended field of medicine. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Hockey ‘56-’59; Football '56-'59; Basketball ‘56-59; Volleyball ‘57-’59; COTC ‘56-'59. Pre-Dental strong suspicions, however, that there are other reasons for his tra- vels. He had the distinction of being the lone pre-dental student in Senior Arts and although his “mad scientist” tendencies sometimes manifest themselves in the chem. lab, Pete came through his course unscathed. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Swimming ‘58, Basketball ‘59, Hockey ‘59; St. John Berchmans ‘56-’58, President and Vice-President; Glee Club ‘57-’59; Arts Society Vice-Pres. ‘59; Flatterer ‘56-’58. 15

SHANNON GROVER General “Though I sang in my chains, like the sea.” Shannon’s eagerness for knowledge and his amazing ability to apply himself to its acquisition has marked him as a person of rare quality. There was seldom a time when Shannon would not be found deeply immersed in a book although he did come up for air occasionally to write articles for the NEWS and Amphora and to edit the Veritas. He will seek a career as a teacher. ACTIVITIES: Drama Society ‘54-'59; Debating '55-'56, ‘57-58; Sodality ‘57-'58; NEWS: Contributor ‘57-59; Amphora ‘58-'59; Veritas Editor ‘57; EIGHT YEAR MAN. PIERRE HEBERT General “Life without life’s joys is nothing but living death.” Pierre came to Loyola from the Jesuit College Ste. Marie in Montreal where he held executive positions in the student council. At Loyola Pierre has worked with the C.S.R. on advertising and has played intramural sports. He contemplates a law course, and so will not likely be trading in the ‘gray bomber’ for a new Cadillac just yet. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Swimming ‘56-'58, Skiing ‘57-58, Football ‘57-'58; CSR Advertising ‘57-’58, St. John Berchmans ‘56-’58. BASIL HOLLAND General “Life is too serious a business to be taken any other way except hu- mourously.” The foremost exponent of Ernest Hemingway this side of N.D.G., Baz has mastered the art of winning friends and influencing people. With a flair for writing and acting he has given us many enjoyable moments both in print and on the stage. With work done in many societies, both as member and executive, he has imprinted a successful mark at Loyola. After hallowing our halls for eight years, we'll wager he'll be back as professor some day. ACTIVITIES: Intramural: Bowling ‘56-57; Drama Society ‘55-59, Secretary ‘57-'58, Vice-President ‘58-59; Debating ‘56-’59, Secretary and Vice-President ‘57-'58; Sodality ‘55-59; NEWS ‘55-’59; Review ‘57-’58; Amphora ‘57-’59; Arts Society Secretary ’56-’57; Carnival ‘57-'59; EIGHT YEAR MAN.
