Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God John, an alumnus of St. John's, has been throughout his four years at the Prep, a steady working student and an active participant in numerous extra-curricular activities. As a result of 'iis interest in a school newspaper, the Prepster was published under his editorship, for the first time in four years. John was proficient in Latin, Mathematics, English and History, while he shun- ned the Sciences. Even though his high school career has been quite clamorous, nevertheless, John has heard the call to the religious life as his eventual goal. After graduation, John intends to enroll at Epiphany Apostolic College in order to become a Josephite Father. John could be seen fraternizing with Pat McSweeny,' Tom Burns and J. J. Sullivan. All the Jaspers wish John all the luck in the world in his quest for the highest vocation in life.

Common sense is very uncommon Tom has the good fortune of meeting problems and difficulties with admirable sense and good taste. His innate honesty is a factor which has not only ingratiated him with his fellow students, but also with the members of the faculty. Tom is always occupied with worthwhile activities, whether it be assisting at Prep Basketball games or in after-hours employment. A conscientious viewer of the abstract and still the pragmatist, Tom can be counted among those who will enter labor management in the future. His Prep com- panions include Thomas McManus and John J. Sullivan. He prefers track and hockey and also enjoys his nickname Merch, Tom's versatility and friendly companionship will always be wel- come in any circle. d-AAA., '

I will never think of the future, it comes soon enough The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved Dick, the guitar player from St. Brendanls, looks forward to the day when he will walk out into the world a mechanical engineer. In his Prep career, he excelled in Math, while he stubbornly resisted Cicerols orations. Dick was always the quiet, studious type. When he was elected to the Student Council no one could say that he hadn't practiced what he preached. He has many likes and among those on the top of the list are cars, records, and his electric guitar. You can find Richard at any hour of the day with either Al Derivan or Kevin Gallagher. fmffwg I ,mzffwfef JOHN JOSEPH CAREY Freshman Track l .
