Reverend John Shea, A.B., combines kindly wit and serious instruction in his theology classes. The complexities of theology are unraveled patiently and the untiy of the whole doctrine presented carefully. In the history of Salve Regina College, Rev- erend Gerald F. Dillon, LL.D., holds a special place. In the early years as chaplain, professor and counsellor His prudence and wise delibera- tion sustained us. Truly we have been enriched by his influence. Our Friends Reverend Irving Georges, O.P., M.A., S.T.Lr., S.T.M., has limitless enthusiasm where theology and philosophy are concerned. No class is dull and each word is meaningful whether the subject is theology, the history of philosophy ot logic. 17
