Buckley. fBack Rowj: G. Walkin, R. Meter, R. Cogliano, B MEMBERS OF 462 take advantage of a study period as they try to pre- pare for a future coming attraction in the form of a world history exam. lk HEADING FOR HOME after a long day of work at school are three of the more tired sophomores, B. Smith, R. Caputo, and of course R. Meter. FEATURING 402 Adorning the marquee of class 402 one would find the feature presentation to be an athletic, amiable and aggressive group of sophomores. There can be found in this class, a group of men whose agility and dexterity on the courts and fields make them prominent members of the sports world at Power. This class is also composed of those who regard studious application and more academic facets of extra-curricular activity as their chief hallmarks. The spotlight is now turned and the stage is set for the post-school activities of this sophomore group. Richie Caputo is quite at home in his dual role of LV. basketball whiz and J.V. baseball star. Charlie Krueger, who in his spare time is ball boy for the New York Knickbockers, aspires to a part in springtime baseball. Other sports enthusi- asts who share equal billing are John Haffey and Eddie Evans. While they display their talents on their neighborhood basket- ball team, William Birch holds down the aquatic side with his expert underwater maneuvers. On the more cultural and academic side of the stage we find Ralph Cogliano, George Sorentino and R. Pan playing to the rhythmic syncopation of the Power School Band. Much time and service in the honor of God is spent by David Ryan who unseltishly devotes much of his free time to the instruction and religious training of release time students. The artistic whims of the class are satisfied by the membership of Richard Swane and Gerard Suderland in the poster club. The average day of class 402 is divided into a robust and ordered six act play, where the curtain ascends to the overture of Mr. DeMatteo's Spanish period. A steady scholastic pace is kept by Brother Considine's biology, Brother Delaney's busi- ness arithmetic, Brother Dennehy's Religion class, Brother O'Neil's English and a climactic session of world history under the direction of Mr. Spina. At 1:15 the curtain descends for but a few, as extra-cur- ricular prowess and school spirit find many members of 402 taking well deserved curtain calls in the halls of athletic abil- ity and curtural centers that make Power life enjoyable. 54

CLASSES CONTINUED PL YF L 4-01 This class not only ranked second in the academic standing of sophomore year but also it had an ex- cellent reputation in the extra-curricular depart- ment. Executives of 401 were headed by President James Morgan, vice president john Chicavich and Donald Gallant, the all-important treasurer. Next, lending their voices to Brother Dennehys prize Winning glee club were: James Bautz, Robert Bon- vicin, Kenneth Byrnes, john Chicavich, Warren Conrad, McGreevy, james Morgan, David Mul- laney, John Palmieri and Paul Sanner. There was also a' goodly number in the other musical aggre- gation. Robert Fisher, Duncan Forbes and Donald Gallant were quite Hinstrumentaln in the band's St. Patriclds Day prance up Fifth Avenue. Switching now from the music lovers to other after-school pursuits we have as religious instructors John Hayden, Edward Finnegan and David Mul- laney. These certainly took Christ's order to teach all nationsl' to heart. Each Thursday afternoon under the capable guidance of Brother Leader they engage in teaching the Catechism. The sole repre- sentative on Brother O'Sullivan's debating team was John Foley. While this was his first year of public speaking, he showed himself quite a prospect for the next two years. On the award-winning 'tPurp1e and Gold were Patrick Cahill and David Mullaney. Patrick Cahill also, along with Michael Callaghan and Michael O'Sullivan contribute their vast writ- ing ability to the Power . Turning now to the field of athletics 401 has James Morgan, Olindo Preli, and Paul Sanner staunch members of Brother O'Neill's track squad. On Brother Leader's bowling team were Thomas Leahy and Michael O'Sullivan. Henry Flinter was a prize catcher of the IV. base- ball squad. The mermen were Michael Costello and Alfred Lizzio. Finally on Mr. O'Regan's champion- ship handball squad were Patrick Cahill and John Foley. Well-rounded and possessing an inexhausti- ble school spirit, that spotlight most assuredly beams brilliantly on the class of 407. In addition, this spotlight will continue to illuminate the celes- tial heavens of this class of sophomore year because, as they .have shown throughout the entire term, their diligence, their ready zeal in the field of ath- letic and cultural endeavor and the unceasing dis- play of activity has not and will not diminish. The spotlight will rather brighten as the pace of this group quickens with the approach of Junior year. THE MYSTERIES OF PLANE GEOMETRY are re- vealed to T. Leahy and M. Callahan by teacher V. Russo.
