There is nothing new except what is forgotten .lim is a student of many facets. He possesses the qualities of a wry humorist as well as the profound observation of a philosopher. He came to the Prep in 1953 and immediately became well- liked and respected. After a stay at Barrytown, Jim continued his studies here at the Prep. A golf enthusiast, his favorite pastimes include con- versing, playing basketball and attending Business Law periods.

A good reputation is more valuable than money A wide grin and apt quotation characterize Dick, a faithful Yonkerite from St. Mary's. An adherent of the Parking Lot crew, Dick, with John Nunan and Bob Di Tuillio, relates his old J .V. Baseball days. Who can forget Dick's blazing fast-ball and sporadic history at bat. While on the team, Dick was a fervent member of the bench-jockeyfs association, responsible for many an uproarious moment. Physics and Trig have few charms for Dick as he found History tops at the Prep. Spanish was always an interesting', subject for Dick, since Spanish periods were al- ways described as eventful Dick is among those who will be taking Science next year and some day hopes to be accosted as R. McGahan, M.D.

Welcome as kindly showers to long parchea' earth To begin with, Den is a wit of the first order. This, along with his mild, extremely likable dis- position, makes him an interesting personality. His humorous, yet worthwhile dissertations run the gamut from the philosophy of science to an analysis of vast clientele of Francis Edwards? This centrally located refreshment parlor in Yon- kers has had the honor of employing Den and his thesis on practical advantages of the evasion tacticv will not soon be forgotten. 'fStretch comes from the back country of Yonkers and lists, among others, John McCabe and Frank Xavier as his Prep friends. A student of scholarship char- acter, Denl' has selected Manhattan for engi- neering and with his innate aptitude along these lines, he will do extremely well.

'I am a part of all that I have met To some, the job of leading is quite difficult. Not so, however, with Edmond, forthe possesses the gift of leadership and has exercised his powers admirably during his stay. His varied diversions run the gamut from managerial positions with the track squad, to extemporaneous speaking, to fer- vently listening to the Music of the Masters. The ever-present Mr. McGrath is a droll speaker, poet of philosophical trivia, interested in those about him, and is a staunch opponent of tyranny. Edmond's good nature and kindness appear at all times, and he is a most gracious personage, jocu- lar in manner and serious of spirit. Indeed, Ed- mond is an integral part of the organization of the Prep and has had a profound influence on many of his fellow students. With his departure we say, This is the stuff of which leaders are made.
