Much crediT musT go To John Tor his abiIiTy To keep up in his sTudies while holding several posi- Tions in various secTions oT The ciTy ThroughouT his college career. V I-Iis college IiTe aTTorded him many expIoiTs and Tours and his knowledge oT The IvIeTropoIiTan area is asTounding. We doubT ThaT he ever read I:ausT, neverTheIess, excerpTs Trom his diary would do iusTice To Pepys himselT, and his Iachrymose anec- doTes, coupled wiTh his daily readings oT Winchell and I-Iellinger, make up Tor such omissions.

Nof very opfimisfic, buf we can be guife cerfain he never admifs defeaf in an argumenf. Sfarfing as a sfudenf in fhe school of engineering he soon decided fhe arfs course fo be fhe besf guide for his vocafion. There can be nofhing buf success for one endowed wifh fhe characferisfics of Joe. For four years fhe never-ceasing effervescence of his wif and humor has made him loved by all. l-le was conspicuous by his wif during Professor Meelcs lecfures, which Joe never missed regardless of circumsfances. lf is guife hard for us fo forgef fhe greaf argumenf befween Joe and Professor Sweeney in Sophomore Social Science. Joe did remarkably well in explaining fhe benefifs of fhe war elephanfs used by l-lannibal. Yef even fo fhis day we all wonder if he were given credif for fhaf lengfhy recifafion. Well, fun is fun, and Joe abounds wifh if. Buf he also has a serious side. l-le is a pal fo all of us and a frue man. Loved by us all we feel a rush of sadness when we lcnow fhaf our daily confacf wifh him has ended. Some of us hope fo be in law school wifh you. We shall always remember you in your happy, smiling manner, a friend fo all, an enemy fo none. Whaf beffer could be said of any man? Good luck, Joe. ' rj iP 'Qg?
