DOOLEY JOHN entered the Mount in '31, A ready mixer, he soon made friends with all those with Whom he came into contact. As a writer he realized the high literary standards attainable at Mount St. Michael. During his stay here John showed his ability as a scholar and an athlete. In the latter field he Was prominent on the basketball court and baseball dia- mond. Much of the pitching duty was carried by him during the season of '33. His ready smile and humor have rendered him very popular with all of us. John expects to continue acquiring school knowledge at Manhattan College, and we are sure that his efforts will be crowned with success. TIMIDLY examining the new school he had just en- tered, back in '31, John calmly and seriously came to the conclusion that the Mount was the place he had been looking for. He was very quiet, and slow at get- ting acquainted. As his shyness wore off, the number of his friends increased at a surprising rate. He has shown his loyalty to his school by the active part he took in all student activities. On the Cross Country and Track teams, John showed his grit and determina- tion. In Senior year he made the Varsity Basketball team. Here he gave several fine performances by his calmness and deadly accuracy. Deacon , so named because of his non-excitable nature, has heard the Master's call and will study for the Priesthood. He leaves with our best wishes for a fruitful career.

COYNE JAMES M. CRONIN IIBERNIEH is a quiet chap. His entrance to the Mount two years ago was rather providential. Since then we have had an ardent and enthusiastic support- er of all sports. One need not be an athelete to dis- play school spirit and this Bernie has demonstrated by his whole-hearted support of student activities. History and mathematics appeal mostly to him and although his future is yet undecided, we are sure he will make his mark in whatever occupation he may choose as his lifework. Bernie's high standing in class and natural studious demeanor denote a serious character whose only aim is true success. IN FEBRUARY of 1931, a quiet young man entered the Mount and in a very short space of time was classified as a close friend of all. He it was who gave us a fuller understanding of that old saying, Smile and the world smiles with you. Daily Jim's smile sent the students happily off to their studies. A great lover of the outdoors and interested in mechan- ics, this young fellow combines both avocations on a Saturday by breathing in country air while tinkering with his antediluvian Pontiac. After graduation Jim hopes to become a flying cadet and in due time win those coveted wings of the Army Air Corps. Happy landings, Jim! BERNARD J. COYNE E Bernie 2 sodalrify 3, 4. E E E 2 JAMES M.

DUGGAN HAROLD F. X. FINNEGAN ALTHOUGH Steve has been in Mount St. Michael but one short year, he has made his presence agreeable and useful in many ways. Genial in charac- ter and of a helpful disposition, he is well liked by both his teachers and fellow students. He was chosen Ass't Editor-in-Chief of the Gold and Blue and Edi- tor-in-Chief of the Mountaineer -so much for his literary ability and interest in the art of writing. Some day Steve may reach the goal of his ambition by writing The Great American Novel . Armed with sterling qualities of character and an earnest desire to succeed, Steve is well prepared to meet whatever difficulties may confront him in his business career. SHY in disposition yet strong of heart, Harold -F. X. faithfully plodded his way' through the four years of high school work prescribed by Mount St. Michael and always managed to be on. the Honor list though he found time to take part in extra-curricular activi- ties. He distinguished himself on the football field and also in track. Because of his retiring disposition, Harry does not make friends so very easilyg yet those favored with his friendship have come to know what it means to have a real and devoted pal. He will con- tinue his studies next year at Manhattan College. STEPHEN J. DUGGAN Steve . Ass't Editor-in-Chief of Gold and Blue 43 Edi- tor-in-Chief of '33 Moun- taineefrg Mgr. Baseball 4.
