JOHN Q. O’BRIEN Engineering “Recta sapere.” Success could not be more immanent for a man like John whose sterling qualities have made him extremely well-liked by all of his acquaintances. “Chappy”, it seems, can resist everything save the temptation to laudit the national status of Britain being as we know a very impartial observer. Throughout his four years at the college he has maintained such proficiency in his studies that he has been able to devote his attention to sports, taking Varsity Soccer very seriously. John’s clear-headed thinking, his adapt sense of humor and his ability to make friends stand him in perfect stead making his advancement in the world a positive certainty. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Bowling ‘59-'60, Swimming ‘58-60, Tennis ‘59-'60; Varsity Soccer ‘59-'60. NICHOLAS E. O’CONNOR Pre-Medical “Not to see what dimly lies ahead but to do what clearly lies at hand.” Nick was the last addition to the class, arriving two years ago from Queen’s.. He rapidly adjusted to the more rugged way of life, both by gaining many friends and building up a reputation as the one challenge to teachers in both Philosophy and Theology that the sciencemen could put forward. Outside of class, Nick specializes in biology lectures to the uninformed, ethical arguments and running the Sodality, none being the easiest of tasks. Next comes medical school, and the qualities shown so far point up the fact that Nick should have little trouble. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Football ‘58-’60, Hockey ‘58-'60, Swimming '59-’60; Pre-med. Society ’58-'60; Sodality:; Member ‘58-’59, President ‘59-60; ASFA Chairman ‘59-'60. NEIL O’GALLAGHER Civil Engineering “There but for the grace of God go I.” Neil came to Loyola from St. Patrick’s High School in Quebec City. Like a true Quebecois, hockey is his natural art. A stalwart center, he has distinguished himself as a “pro” in intramural hockey and when on loan to the Warriors, a “semi-pro”. An ardent philosopher, Neil had become a favorite among his philosophy professors. His four philosophy courses this year are a good indication that Neil will further his education in Civil Engineering at McGill next year. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Hockey ‘55-60, Swimming ‘57-'60, Volleyball ‘59-'60. 30

MICHAEL W. McCARREY Civil Engineering “It is personalities, not principles, that move the age.” Mike has always been an avid supporter of any college project, and has proven himself as a competent leader, holding the post of SSA President during his graduation year. Regarded with high admiration by all his friends, Mike, Sheriff of the Physics Lab, has at last announced his formula for success; abundant toil, chopped- egg sandwich and plenty of relaxation. We all wish him well. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Football ‘56-60, Swimming ‘59-'60; Carnival Variety Show ‘58, ‘59, ‘60; SSA President ’59-’60; Glee Club ‘57-'60; Eureka Contributor ‘59-'6 0; EIGHT YEAR MAN. MELVYN McDONOUGH Chemistry “The world soon eats up your education, keep informed.” Another Senior Matriculation graduate from D’Arcy McGee, Mel entered Chemical Engineering at Loyola in Sophomore year. He has since then proven himself as an idealist and a diplomat in the P S Club. In his final year he was elected Secretary of the Loyola Chap- ter of the CIC which he helped organize the previous year. Gra- duating in academics rather than athletics, his favorite subject is organic chemistry. He hopes to pursue a career in business adminis- tration in the chemical field. ACTIVITIES: Chemical Institute of Canada: Secretary ‘59-’60; P S Club ‘59-60. VICTOR MIMEAULT Honours Chemistry “The impossible can be accomplished immediately; miracles take a little time.” Vic is unique insofar as he is the only graduate in Honors Chemistry which speaks for itself of his intelligence. The many good friends he has made is proof of his popularity. Vic’s better known abilities range from puck-stopping in intramural hockey to braving any ele- ment for a party. This, combined with his good nature and generous spirit, make him an invaluable classmate, and easily one of the graduates most likely to succeed, be it in future study for a doc- torate or out in the working world. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Basketball '57-'60, Football ‘58-’60, Hockey ‘58-'60, Volley- ball ‘59-'60; Varsity Football Manager ‘59-'60; Varsity Curling ‘58-'60; CIC: Secre- tary ’58-'59, President ‘59-'60.

ROBERT O’KANE Engineering “No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.” Bob is best known as “Keen Kane”, as the originator of the O’Kane dike in Mechanical Drawing and as the only one who managed to have three final examinations scheduled for the same hour at mid- term. His quiet manner and optimistic outlook through High School and College have been a great comfort to many when the work piled up before examinations. His ready smile and willingness to cooperate have made him one of the best-liked fellows in the class. His firm personality will be a great asset when he enters the busi- ness world. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Football ‘56-59, Hockey Manager ‘57-'60; Glee Club ‘58- ‘60; Science Tours Chairman ‘59-’60. GEORGE J. PAJUK Chemistry “Tho’ the sun in the heaven desert you, love will find out the way.” Neither the invasion of Poland nor the examinations at Loyola have been able to discourage George. He has shown himself to be a man of outstanding perspicacity and foresight, and has exempli- fied himself in instructing and controlling the “Marianettes” in the Chemistry Lab. Because of his ever present Slavic smile, he has been a source of encouragement to all about him. In his position as head of the guest speaker’s committee he has presented Loyola with many an interesting speaker other than himself. ACTIVITIES: Intramural Soccer ‘58; Varsity Soccer ‘59; UMUN: Delegate ‘60; P S Club: Vice-President ‘59-60, Member ‘58-60. RICHARD PIEDALUE Civil Engineering “Why not?” Dick came to Loyola from D’Arey McGee High. With his smooth sense of humor and personal charm, “Puddles” has become one of the most affable characters of his class. The past two years have deemed him as the most improved player in intramural hockey and basketball. There have been few men who have attended the Col- lege, who could ski better than Dick. We all wish him continued suc- cess at McGill where he will take up Civil Engineering. ACTIVITIES: Intramurals: Hockey ‘57-60, Swimming ‘57-'60, Skiing ‘57-'60. 31
