B0 6 BROTHER DOMINIC JORDAN, F.S.C. Words cannot express fully all that the personality and presence of Brother Dominic mean to St. Raymond's. ln writing of a man such as Brother Dominic, Science with a smile, one feels compelled to include his undying loy- alty to his students, homeroom and self-sacrifice in all sports activities be they varsity, intramural or Class Nights. To express a small portion of our respect and appreciation for this truly Christian Brother, we would like to dedicate this Phoenix to Brother Deminic for his self-dedication through the service of God for us.
