SAM UAL FELIX BROWN Another St. joseph's lad, Sam wandered ito Prep as a Frosh in '52 and got a good tart by joining the Sodality and playing fub Basketball. On the first day of his ophomore year, Sam caught the wrong us and spent the whole year at 23rd and last jefferson St. A road map and the lure f a jesuit education made Sam a solid xture around Adelphia at the start of his unior year. Sam wants it to be known that e considers Parker a better hustler, but iat his own popularity in social groups roves that his favorite What's coming p the weekend? has made him a true 'repster and not a prodigal son. GERALD PATRICK BURKE Girls are my hobby says our next grateful grad, jerry Burke, who is straight from the wastelands near Holy Family Grade School. Swinging in the front door as a frosh in '52, Two Ton joined the Debate Club 1-2 and as a Senior was the third place winner in the Senior Elocution Contest, jerry's jeep has pulled more than one Prep car out of the mud and jerry's smile has pulled more than one Prepster out of a bad mood. jerry wants to blow up the Chem lab and with a little luck he might do it. His real lifetime ambition is to become a doctor. If jerry can fmd time to escape the clutches of his hobby, we know he will be a fine lVl.D. PETER ZIEGLER CAHAN Pete plunged through Prep's front door from St. Teresa's and was soon pounding the gridiron for the Frosh eleven. Though football took a lot of Pete's time, he found that such activities as Panther Club 3-4, Pep Club 2-3, Harlequin Club 3-4 and Letterman's Club 3-4 did not interfere with his athletic endeavors which include B-Squad Football 2 and Varsity 3-4. For his fine efforts on the Varsity, Pete won a position on the All-Northwest Cath- olic Football Team 4. His admittance to the Harlequin Club was won by his Fine stage crew work in Green Pastures and as a fine supporting player in My Three Angels. His ambition is both to keep Preston out of beer joints and to finish Civil Engineering School. 17 FRANK ELWELL CASE When the Frosh piled through the door, Case got a running start down the hill from St. joseph's and tore his way into activities at Prep the same way he tore into his op- ponents on the football field. His popu- arity was shown by his election to Student Council 1-2-3-4, Secretary of the Letter- man's Club 4, and President of the Panther Club 4, and Class Prexy 1-2-3. Besides Sodality 1-2-4, Frank was on the roster of the Letterman's Club 3-4, Panther Club 3-4, Pep Club 2-3, and The Harlequin Club 4 for his funny performance in My Three Angels. Frenchie has also been the center on the Frosh and B-Squad Football Teams, plus 2 years on the Varsity. The Track Team 2-3, also knew his talents. Case's ambition is to drown Brindle in the fishpool at Volunteer Park. His hobby is throwing parties.

JOHN FRANCIS BRADLEY Another St. Benedict's lad that made ood is Omar Bradley. john joined Sodality 1 and Letterman's Club 4. But he really hit his stride as Football Manager 2-3-4, especially as Head Manager 4. When not trying to retrieve towels and sweat shirts in the locker room, john runs up to the Ridge to see a certain Fran, His other extra-curricular activities include wrecking his car and fixing it. His ambition is to give Preston enough towels to get him completely dry. Though we doubt whether that ambition will be realized, we know that the hard work that has made this boy a success in Prep will see him through life in good stead. , Y ' , -15. N1 GERALD EDWARD BRANDMEIER A Prepster with Technicolor, jerry ar- rived from Blessed Sacrament in '52, His red hair made him easy to spot and he was soon in the swing of things at Adelphia. Red's hobbies include two of the most popular activities amongst Prepsters, girls and cars-in that order. Though he was only in the Sodality 2, jerry found time to be one of the most prominent boosters of Prep's teams. His favorite saying is no sense of humor and his ambition is to be a success in life. jerry with his spirit and loyalty is one boy who can do just that. His real ambition, by the way, is to go out with all Merlino's true loves. Good luck, jerry! ALEXANDER WINN BRINDLE Doctor Brindle, Doctor Brindle goes the loud speaker in the hospital and Al, a graduate of Seattle Prep and Medical School, is in demand again. To be in de- mand won't be unusual for Scrooge who arrived in '52 from St. joseph's. Al was in demand on the Student Council 1-2-3-4, as Class Secretary 1-2-3 and Class Athletic Manager 2. He was in demand in Sodality 1-2, Letterman's Club 3-4, Pep Club 3, Panther Club 3-4, Secretary of that Club 4, Harlequin Club 3-4, for Green Pastures, and My Three Angel's, and on the Prom Committee 3. He was also Sports Editor of this year's Echo. On the athletic field Al was in demand for Frosh Football 1, B- Squad Football 2, Track Team 1-2, Cub Basketball 1, and Varsity Football 3-4. Al's ambition by the way is to throw Quinn in the Volunteer Park Pool. ROBERT ALAN BROWN Bob hails from St. Benedict's in the North End. Deciding to turn his full ability to one of many talents, Bob became a re- porter on the Prep Panther, 1-2-3-4, and to top off his line work he was appointed Editor-in-Chief in his final year. When not writing and making up his page he found time for Student Council 3-4 and to work on the Echo as Assistant Copy Editor. Bob's ambition is to prove Fr. Burke wrong and, though we doubt if he ever will, we are sure he will achieve his goal of getting a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering. If Bob goes through life with his Whaddaya say and good humor we are sure he can achieve nearly any goal.

GERALD ROBERT CLARK The next Bremerton lad to take his bow is that city's pride and joy, jerry Clark. jerry, who took the wrong boat for two years, migrated up from the nether regions of O'Dea to sunny Prep. He was an im- mediate convert to the Jesuits and before long his former environment wore off com- pletely. His main activities at Prep since his arrival as a junior have been cheering the Panthers and driving fancy cars around. jerry's ability to be popular is proven by his impressive list of friends gained in his comparatively short stay within the Adel- phia confines. His hobby is taking care of Louie, and having Louie take care of him. His other hobbies include girls and cars. if 1 - JERRY WILLIAM COOPER With the roar of a hopped up motor our next Blessed Sacrament boy parks his rarely seen Black Monster and dis- mounts at Adelphia. jerry doesn't say much, except at Case's parties, but when he does it usually is with good reason. Coop's hobbies include skiing and of course cars, but at Prep jerry found time for Sodality 1-2, Pep Club 2-3, and on the athletic side, Soph-Frosh Baseball 2, and Ski Club 4. Occasionally jerry will utter his favorite saying Is that right? His ambition is to join the medical profession. This is one fellow who should and will recognize his ambitions, we are sure. ,-, CLAIR JAM ES COUGHLIN My ambition is to keep my baby blue eyes open in Mr. Ringw0od's study, says big jim Coughlin who hails from both Queen Anne and St. joseph's. jim was elected to Class Athletic Manager, and Pep Club 1-2-3. He also played football and baseball on the frosh teams. jim, who is rather noted for his ability to mock, is often heard quoting his favorite saying to Poitry, I know, Dave, Mary Jane is home. Sometime ago, when he was not playing hide and seek with Fr. Weissen- berg and going to the garage with Lou Grenz for a teensy cigarette, jim decided to become a journalist. His sense of humor has made him a popular student among Prepsters and his ability to get along with everyone is going to make his success story much smoother. 18 BERNARD PAUL DAVID In 1952 Bernie entered the Hcreakinl halls from Blessed Sacrament. A debate 1-2-4, he helped spark Prep to its success a C. P. S. and other important tourneys. On of Prep's top writers, he gave invaluabl assistance to the hard-pressed Panlhe staff during his Senior year. Other activi ties on his well balanced roster include Orphean Club 1-2, and Sodality 1-2. Be sides telling people how pessimistic he i about future events, Bernie, a gifted con versationalist and a self-styled philosopher enjoys lecturing to people, especiall jesuits, about the hypocrisy, decline, an decadence of the modern world. Aside fror instructing Mr. Galbraith on the appreciz tion of beauty, he is undecided abou future plans. But we suspect he's anothe Faulkner.
