iHEPnwtn'5s KALEIIJUSCUPIC GEM As you read this, you probably have noticed that the Power '56 is beyond all doubt an extremely superlative book. It is now time to go behind the spectacular and vividly appointed cover, the expertly co-ordinated layouts and the verbose literary texts to examine the talented staff and their hours of sacrifice that produced such an outstanding annual. Since the first skeleton formulation in june of '55 to the book's completion, the task which it presented was of the greatest magni- tude. Under the capable direction of Brother Weigand the book was commenced and terminated in the smoothest possible manner. The task which Brother had to face was greatly ameliorated by the adept co-ordinating prowess of the erudite board of Editors. Etienne Greaux's photographic adroitness made him the unanimous choice to fill the many duties that accompany the title of Editor-in-Chief. To assist Etienne in the voluminous amount of literature that ac- companies the photography were Richard Nahman, the Business and Managing Editorg Robert Fahey, the Class Editorg William Liebtag, Feature Writerg Vincent J. LaBash, Caption Editorg Steven Lynch, Art Editorg Kent Weldon, Sports Editorg Bernard Seubert, Production Editor. The editors and their assistants brought many and varied inno- vations to the award-winning annual. For the first time technicolor was used inside the book and the continuance of a solid color scheme was used throughout. Also tribute must be paid to the time spent in research to make the 164-page issue a fitting tribute to Power's twenty-fifth anniver- sary and the fiftieth anniversary of the Irish Christian Brothers in the United States. This is your yearbook-a memento of PM A. THE BUSINESS STAFF are involved in the yearbook's Hnancial matters. fLeft to Hightj: M. Sullivan, R. Zemaitis and R. Nahman, Business Editor.
