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.

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

LEO MOORE JOHN JAVORNIK General “Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today. Plough deep while sluggards sleep.” John escaped from D’Arcy McGee High School to Loyola for his Sophomore year and has never regretted this move. His enthusiastic support of intramural sports was in evidence on the gridiron, rink or in the gym. A constant spark to his teammates, he was, in fact, un- officially voted the most improved hockey player of the year by them. John hopes to continue his studies in history. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Football ’56-’59, Hockey ‘56-'59, Basketball ‘56-’59, Volleyball ‘57-59; COTC ‘56-’57. General “It's not whether you won or lost But how you played the game.” Buddy, a reserved and quiet-spoken fellow, is of that long line of fine athletes that has trodden the path from Verdun to Loyola. An eight year man and an all-around athlete Bud excelled in a clean hard game of hockey and has consistently been among the high scorers of the Warriors. For his achievement in this vital aspect of college life, he was elected Sports Manager by his classmates. ACTIVITIES: Intramural: Football ‘55-’59; Varsity Hockey ‘56-'59; Sports Mana- ger ‘58-59; EIGHT YEAR MAN. ACTIVITIES: Drama Society ‘56-59; Carnival ‘57-59: EIGHT YEAR MAN. PAUL LABERGE General “You will go on, and when you have prevailed You can say: at this point many a one has failed.” An impeccable dresser, Paul is no stranger to Loyola; one might even say Paul knows everyone and everyone knows Paul. With a flair for fine and artistic things, Paul has carried this interest into worthwhile projects. He has worked in many stage productions as well as direct- ing the Carnival Ice Show through its initial two years. After gradua- tion he intends to continue post-graduate work in English.
