Some come to take their ease and sleep an act or two Bob, a constant source of laughter at the Prep since his first day of school, has set his sights for a B.B.A. at Queens College. He associated with Mike Hyland, Jim Heelan and Jim Burdett on the campus and in the classroom. Bob has a nasty habit of falling asleep in class, but he is usually disturbed by the perturbed teachers. He enjoys cars, girls, and the root of all evil,'7 MONEY. Bob is very industrious in holding many jobs, most of them during the wee hours of the morning, while attending school. This may very well be the reason for his relaxed mood in school. We all hope that Bob becomes a big suc- cess in this Big, Wide-Awake World into which he shall shortly plunge with all guns blazing. 42 CHRISTOPHER PATRICK KEANE Cross Country lg Intramurals l,2,3g Honor So- ciety I: 2,3,4g Honor Society II: 1. Brother, Brother, we are both in the wrong! Chris, a rugged individualist, hopes to set his mark on the world by becoming a successful engi- neer after graduating from Stevens College. He provides quite a few laughs in class by demon- strating his unlimited ability to understand Trigo- nometry. Money, food and sleep are his.favorite items and he seems to receive enough of them. Chris can usually be found in the presence of Jim Heelan, Bob Gorman, Don Brennan and John McCabe. Chris has held some very lucrative posi- tions, especially as a messenger in business houses. The greatest moment that Chris experienced at the Prep was the bulletin that he attained a pass- ing grade in the Third Year Latin Regents. We all hope that Chris obtains his wish and becomes the big success he wants to be.

I t is always darkest just before the dawn Mike is the type of guy who probably never has any trouble making friends because of his vibrant personality and consistent wit. He has been a constant member of the Honor Society for four years. His popularity led him several times to being elected as a class ofiicer. This year Mike qualified for the finals in the Merit Scholar- ship Examinations. His greatest moment was listening to the Christmas carols sung by children who receive instruction from the Catechist Society of which he is a member. He intends to enter Manhattan College and take up Industrial Chem- istry. With his natural ability to comprehend Math and Chemistry, he should become extremely successful in later life.

I t stands upright The KILLER is famous for his sharp-pointed humor. Jim can be seen anywhere and every- where conniving new ways in which to beat the study period. Mathematics and History have proven most appealing to him, while Spanish pre- sented a problem. His associates in class are Gene Pasquarelli and Bob Pattwell. Besides working steadfastly in between periods, Jim could be found maneuvering his umobile desk up and down the aisles. We all wish Jim multam fortunam at Indiana Tech, where Electronics will be his eventual goal.

The cautious seldom err 'The expression, 'LEarly to Rise, sums up Joe in a phrase. An Incarnation graduate, Joe can be found diligently working at his desk in the wee hours of the morning, catching up with anything he missed the previous day. Dubbed Bruiser for an unknown reason, he prefers to be called Pat. At National Guard drills, Pat can be found with Bob Pattwell and Mike Sancho. Pat's quiet and sincere personality soon wins over everyone he meets, especially the girls. In the past, Pat has undertaken such jobs as salesman, delivery boy and messenger. In the field of scholastic achievement, Joe might rightly feel a great sense of accomplishment. A constant member of Honor Society I, he put Religion and English at the top of the list and Spanish at the bottom. Pat's future points to a degree and a career in electrical engineering.
