JOSEPH ACTON SCIENCE, PRE-MEDICAL College is but the beginning of education. A native of Gananoque, Ontario, Joe came to Loyola via St. Lawrence U. His varied interests range from an en- thusiastic sports car racer to a classical music lover and pianist. His pet peeve is the morning alarm; so much so that Joe will celebrate graduation by having his first breakfast in four years. Joe's straight forwardness and natural humor have made him one of the most popular and well-liked of the science graduates. RENE CHARTRAND GENERAL PHYSICS The world drives men to assume characters which are not their own. During his years at Lo yola, Rene has accomplished much, not only in his chosen field of physics and mathematics but also in securing profitable and everlasting ‘‘bonds ’ and experience outside of college life. His conscientious and persevering qualities have helped him maintain high scholastic standings; on the other hand his good natured- ness and fine sense of humour have made him well liked by all. We feel this self-assured individual is bound to meet with continued success in whatever field he chooses. ROBERT COOK HONOURS CHEMISTRY He who will not reason is a bigot, He who cannot is a fool: And he who dares not is a slave. This grad of McGee High has openly shown a disrever- ence for the saying that a scientist hides behind his test tubes. A natural leader, he has turned to an active role in campus politics and international affairs. He makes it a point to be informed about the world around him. Unafraid to make known his opinion, he becomes a lively member of any group. He has also done his best for his fellow science students through the years, culminating this year by heading the Science Students’ Association. JOHN DEVLIN CHEMISTRY There is no mystery of the physical world which does not point to a mystery beyond itself. A graduate of St. Leo's Academy, Johnny came to us in Sophomore year via D'Arcy McGee's Senior Matriculation. This creative genius holds the formula to some of the foulest smells in the history of Loyola's Chemical Annals. Among his accomplishments we find: bongo-drum play- ing, paintings of monasteries, home-made wine and the sight of an engagement ring. As far as qualities go, honesty and true friendship, intelligent perseverance and the pursuit of ideals are only a few. Following gradua- tion he plans to go on to post-graduate studies in or- ganic chemistry, make a million dollars and eventually win the Nobel Prize! 28 EGBERT ARCHIBALD SCIENCE, PRE-MEDICAL With truth I am inspired; the good I shall persue; And hope to end where I begun — In one with being. Archie, (as he is better known by his friends) will be one of the few members of this graduating class who will be long remembered by the rest of the college: First, because by sheer persistence, he brought soccer back to Loyola; Secondly, because his dynamic but quiet personality and his uncanny knack of public speaking won him not only the vice-president seat on the S.A.C., but the friendship of all. TERRY CONWAY CHEMISTRY The distance is nothing; it is only the first step that counts. Quiet and unassuming, Terry has managed to cope with the problem of education consistently well. Although known to some of his friends as ‘‘Wee Terry'’ he stands high in the opinion of those whom as a lab instructor, a tutor, and a friend. His avid interest in chemistry is ex- emplified in his revolutionary thought, apparently im- practical ideas on various and sundry experiments. Terry's ready smile and keen observations will win him many friends and assure continual success. Mr. Guafdagni strikes a pose
