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.

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.
