Gene has been a real student, always well prepared for class, a thing so much desired by teachers. His consistent high marks in all his subjects stamped his versatility. Science, however, was his favorite and he plans to continue on that line. Sports beckoned to Eugene, and he gave a good account of himself at all times. His spirit and perseverance made him a real handy man in base- ball and football. His chief hobby was electrical trains, but his liking for television was a close second. Gene intends to take up chemical engineering and we have high hopes that he will acquit himself very well. judging by his work at Oratory, success will be his. Good luck, Gene . l g 'W E N S l-a ssi ' , ' J, all
