Still pleased to teach, but yet not proud to know One can hardly find a more affable and lht- hearted fellow than Ray. A worthy representative of St. Margaret's, Cosy can always be seen wherever happenings, convivial of nature, occur. Having a distinct aversion to Math and Science, Ray has always been a major bulwark of the Liberal Arts course, which helll take at Man- hattan. He is usually seen with F. Segers and J. McEntee but recently he has been associated with the parking lot crowd. He prefers good books, money and girls, and had a ball at the Senior Prom. A valued member of the Catechet- ical Society and Vice-President of his class A.D.C., Ray's congenial personality and charm- ing manner will always be his most valuable assets.

What thin partitions sense from thought divide Another of Good Shepherd's alumni here at the Prep, Bob has become an integral part of senior machinery. His wit and humor have en- livened more than one gloomy day and he will be sorely missed after graduation. On campus, he is always seen in company with James Connors, John Curry and Daniel Sheehan. Always enjoying a good Mathematics and Science course, Bob will enter the Engineering School of Manhattan Col- lege and study Civil Engineering. Assured success is prophesied for Bob, both in college and through the years ahead. filagtgng VWMZKQMMM.

Human improvement is from within outward Bob, a St. John's alumnus, has completed four very successful years at the Prep and will continue his intellectual training at the University of Flori- da. He has an avid interest in Marine Zoology and Marine Botany due, of course, to his many ex- peditions into the Floridian Everglades. The Jun- ior Prom was Bob's most gratifying experience in high school. He is always seen in the company of Albert Derivan, Richard Carella, Patrick Byrne and Herb Sweeny. We are sure that whatever state Bob settles in, he will make a great success.
