ANDRES ALBA TRUJILLO CITY DOMINICAN REPUBLIC I945 Dorm Council Presidenl 6 BORN lcnave and I'he prime example of fhe La+in Type, Andres has made a grea'r hil' in Ihe Esfados Unidos. Capable of doing a good iob, as was evidenced in his rapid assimila+ion of +he English language, bolh oral and wriHen, he can dodge a+hIe+ics wiI'h greal' facili+y Io 'rhe exasperalion of Mr. Benl. He is also a consfani' source of enlivenmenf in +he +hird period siudy hall, and promises fo become +he Danny Kaye of Cenlral America. In his serious momenls he is a greaf fellow +o work wilh, and he has cerlainly made a 'line name 'For himself here a+ Riverdale, as was shown in his recenl' eleclion Io The Dorm Council. - NH EY, Sham! cries Andy Io Joseph as he runs down Ihe hall on one lean leg lfhe ofher is carelessly wrapped around his waisll, drawing +he puzzled glances of one of Mr. Ben+'s sighl-seeing parlies. Tha'r's our Iraclc caplain and I'he Social CommiH'ee head-fine boy, explains Mr. Benl, propelling fhe fascinaled guesfs oul' Ihe fronl door.

Fully aware of his profi- ciency in sludies, iiH'er-bugging, and lraclc, Andy and his slow drawl will no'r be soon 'ForgoH'en. II85 PARK AVENUE NEW YORK, N. Y. I 945 Traci: 5, 6 ICap+.lg J. V.

ANTONIO BOTERO 333 WEST 86TH ST. NEW YORK, N. Y. I946 J. V. Baseball 5: Soccer 6. MMACULATELY dressed in a quief blue or grey suif, his gleaming smile always on fap, Anfonio sfrolls fhrough his classes wifh liffle frouble. Big and robusf, he did his bif on Schweifzer's rowdy soccer feam, and spreads, like Luis Vidal before him, fhe Good Neighbor Policy wherever he goes, from , Riverdale Avenue fo Times Square. Well-liked by his classmafes, Anfonio occasionally indulges in a Iiffle back-row game of chance wifh friend Alba during physics class: buf fhis is Alba's faulf, nof our impeccable Anfony's. We believe fhaf Anfonio will carry back fo Soufh America all he has learned-and fhaf is considerable-fo evenfually become fhe head of a new revolufionary regime. T ' EADER and flowery orafor, versafile Fefe has done a greaf deal for his class and Riverdale. As fhe dominanf Council member, he has illusfrafed his giff bofh for confrolling fhe mob and holding his many friends. Said by some fo enioy immensely fhe sound of his own voice, af leasf half of whaf he has fo say is worfh hearing. His hard work on fhe Riverdalian and many ofher organizafions has earned him a repufafion of reliabilify. A frack feam regular for fhree years, he also made fhe foofball varsify and asfonished Coach Berfino by doing a very good iob in fhe lasf fhree games. As fhe crifi- cal, somefimes causfic Peeve, his main inferesf is shown in wrifingg he confribufes many arficles fo school publicafions and fo oufsicle magazines as well. Despife Pefer's convicfion fhaf he can speak German fo von Nardroff, his class is sure he will achieve, fhrough drive and skill, success in his field. 5400 FIELDSTON ROAD RIVERDALE, N. Y.
