VVILLIAM LEON MARTIN, JR. 12821 New Haven Avenue Fort Wayne, Indiana Stl. Andrewls Parish Pep may be found in cereal boxes, Pep may be found at basketball games, and Pep may be found at the last desk in the study hall. This latter Pep is our own William Martin, the boy with the magnetic smile. Exuberant spirits, an apparently unlimited supply of en- ergy, and a very likable personality aid Pep in the numerous activities in which he engages. Although he is no dramatical hit, he makes an excellent master of ceremonies, and par- ticipates in many skits. When Pep is around, there is never a dull moment because of his witty humor and unlimited supply of jokes. Pep is an athlete in the real sense of the word. He played on the basketball varsity for four years, was middle weight boxing champ for two years, broad jump skating champ for two years, and played on the soccer varsity. All this was done when he was not engaged in his favorite hobby, which is sleeping. His extra-curricular interests include, Sodality Counsellor, Kamera Klub treasurer, libra- rian, promoter of the Apostleship of Prayer, and editor of the MARINEWS. This year he is photography editor of the SPIRE. And to topit all off, Pep is an excellent student. Page l T

JAMES NORBERT HOWE 860 Maple Street Napoleon, Ohio St. Augustine 's Parish Norb, as James Norbert is more commonly-called, served two years in Uncle Sam's Navy before entering the Seminary at Sacred Heart back in '47, Although Seminary life is much different from life in the Navy, Norb readily adapted himself and it was not long before he was showing his true worth, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Last year he was elected Prefect of the Sodality of the Blessed Mother, a proof of the high estimation which his fellow students have of him. In this capacity he has served the student body well. The experience he gained in the service, he has put to good use as the Mate of the Seminary's Sea Scout Ship-trying to impart to us landlubbers a little- worth- while nautical knowledge. He is also one of the directors of the Mission Society and a mem- ber of most of the other school organizations. Norb is a good athlete and takes part in all athletic activities. He was one of the promoters of the first outside Christmas crib which proved to be an inspiration to the many who visited the Seminary during the Christmas season. It goes without saying that those whom Norb leaves behind here at the Seminary wish him the same measure of success in the future as he has met with here at school. Page 16 L, -i,...4,Y was .Ek 4.

THOMAS PATRICK O 'CONN OR 701 Tyler Street Gary, Indiana i Holy A ngel 's Parish No graduating class is quite complete without a representative from that unique section of Indiana, the Calumet region, to round out such a well-balanced array of telnperaments as may ne seen in this year's graduating class. Aresident. of Gary, Tom attended and graduated from Bishop Noll High Slchool in Hammond. The following September, he entered the special class of Sacred Heart Seminary and has formed an integral part in our lives ever since. This congenial character, with his flaming red hair and typical irish spirit, enlivens every gathering and produces an atmosphere of happiness and rollicking fun by his very presence. 'l'om's energy knows no bounds. Wherever there is athletic activity of any sort, we surely will find him giving his best in the rough and tubble fashion proper only to such a personality. Lest it be imagined that Mr. Connor is addicted merely to the lighter vein, we hasten to assure you to the contrary. In his more serious moods, Tom has always utilized his very clear and analytical mind in a determined application to his studies. His candid and succinct manner of earnest conversation has gained for him friends innumerable and will undoubtedly continue to do so wherever future years may find him. All in all, we see in Tom that won- derful aggregation of traits so very necessary in the molding of a good priest. It's been swell knowing you, Tom. May the grace of God lead you on to your goal.
