Do your duty, and leave the rest to heaven Dave moved to Westchester during his years here and was forced to join the ranks of the commuters in order to continue at the Prep. Some of his car trips to school-and certainly the trip to Retreat-have become legendary. Dave will always be remembered for his quick wit and impromptu remarks which lightened many a dull period, though it brought him membership to the club reserved for those five or six. After school he has been employed as a delivery boy, A 8z P Hoorman and drug store clerk. Graduation was the long awaited moment in Dave's stay at the Prep. His love of Math with serve him well in September, when he enters Manhattan's Engineer- ing School. fi UMALZ7' Bmw!

As a representative of the C.Y.O. in the sport of Boxing, Punch, as he is called by his fellow students, has taken home the spoils many a night. Among his favorite subjects are included History and Business Law. This fall, he will enter Syracuse University to begin studies in mineralogy. We are assured that Richard will become one of the best mineralogists in the coun- try. He is often seen in the company of Timothy Cronin and John Hauprich.

Science is the natural ally of religion One of our taller seniors, Nick is a student in the true sense of the word, he is the possessor of both a prodigious mind and body. Among his many admiring friends in Yonkers, we may men- tion John McLean, Dan Doran, Albert Derivan and John McCabe. Although he has a natural flair for Mathematics and Science, his interests extend to the broader ranges of automobiles, high fidelity radio equipment and, of course, the op- posite sex. Naturally, with his scientiiic tenden- cies, Nick will enroll in the electrical engineering school at Manhattan College. Indeed, his high scholastic standard thus far foreshadow a promis- ing career both in Manhattan College and through the rest of his life.

Diligence is the mother of good fortune Mike brought his baseball talents from Sacred Heart to the Prep to our advantage. During his four years here he has proved an invaluable asset to the team. While participating in sports, Mike never let the scholastic end of his secondary edu- cation go beggingg his constant membership on the Honor Society demonstrates that. He counted Chemistry, History and Geometry as his favorite subjects. Physics and Trig. are his least appreci- ated. Mike can usually be found at the Parking Lot around noon looking on at the proceedings with interest. Mike Hyland, Dave Barch, Tom Sandleitner and Mike Sancho were members of the circle of Mike's friends. Engineering degree after a stay at Manhattan College is awaiting him in the future.

War is the science of destruction Don is another one of the assets donated to the Prep by Good Shepherd. His combustible humor, which would erupt at the drop of a hat, has made him one of the most well-known stu- dents in a variety of circles. His supreme moment in High School was winning a medal in one of the important Track Meets of his Sophomore year. Don's favorite subjects are History and Mathe- matics. He dislikes vehemently rising on Monday mornings for school and climbing those insur- mountable stairs each day. Aside from school activities, Don enjoys attending parties, playing football and hopping down to Rockaway. Among his friends we can mention Chris Keane, Bob Gorman, Terry Cooney and Jim Heelan. He is interested in attending the Merchant Marine Academy and majoring in Marine Engineering.
