GENE PATRICK DELMORE Red Bush sleepwalked his way into Prep in the middle of his junior year from Billings Central High School in Montana. He immediately made his presence felt by joining the Sodality and taking afternoon jaunts up to the Ridge with the Track Team 3-4. As a Senior, Gene again joined Sodality, broke into the starting lineup of the Varsity football squad and became a member of the Letterman's Club. Gene is a naturally curious boy and can often be found asking people How are you? His ambition is to do well, whatever he does. judging from the variety of talents he has shown in his brief stay at Prep, he is already fulfilling his wish. GUY THOMAS DIJULIO Class President 4, Class Veep 2, Class Secretary 1-3, Sodality 1-2-3-4, Vice- Prefect of Sodality 3, Panther Club 3-4, Pep Club 1-2-3, and Cheer Leader 4: thus we introduce the self-admitted most con- ceited Senior, Guy Dijulio, who came to Prep courtesy of Assumption Grade School. But we can see that Guy's conceit is not based on a weak foundation. His popu- larity is further proven by his many activi- ties which include not only Senior Editor on the '56 Echo Staff, but also personal appearances on the athletic field in Cub Basketball 1, Soph-Frosh Baseball 2 and Varsity Baseball 3-4. Dijulio's favorite saying is, You asked for it and whether it be advice, help, or a quick joke, it is always well given. Gu hasn't quite decided what his ambition is but he just hopes to fulfill it. You can be sure that this Guy will do it. 5 , MER ' men votfnss 1 EXPERIMENT A, -,li .,, .... ll D ' 1ilLllllll'l.'lIllllllLllllllllD llllllll.ll'lil lTllll'lTf 1 U 1 .

Since that time in his own quiet way he has made his stay at Prep very profitable and satisfac- tory. He was nicknamed Blimp by a certain member of the faculty, but his stock retort to this type of criticism is So I am fat, what is your excuse? In his spare time he works on his hobby of model airplane building which is an outgrowth of his ambition to fly as a pilot someday. He also claims with tongue in cheek that some fine day he will put pipes on his Ford. ,ss - ' 4 ska: Qi ' iii age iv

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.

PETER BRETAGNE ELY There is no school like no school, says Peter Ely, a grad of St. Mary's who first pounded on the front door of Prep in '52. He cut his niche in the Debate Club 1-2-3-4 and became Prexy 4 to show that his de- bating ability is as good as everyone says. Pete was also a junior Elocution Finalist 1, and gave much time to the Sodality 1-2-3-4. His ambition is to graduate and to become a priest. Certainly a fellow who could talk his way to the Second Place in Debate at the Yakima Debate Tournament could talk his way out of Prep and into Sheridan. Anyway we know that Pete has been an attribute to Prep and he certainly will be great stuff as a Father. X . X Sift KENNETH CHARLES FLAJOLE Across the foggy stretch of water comes the ferry boat and aboard is one of its best customers, Louie Flajole. Straight from the salty town of Bremerton and the Star of the Sea Parish, to the front door of Prep came Louie and he immediately became everyone's friend. His hobby is counting his money or to be more exact figuring out how much he owes. His favorite saying is Who has the church key? and that doesn't bear explaining. As a Senior, Louie was elected 4-C Sergeant-at-Arms. Tiger's ambition is to become an engi- neer. but if he can't do that, he will be perfectly satisfied just to be Captain on one of the modern ferry boats that make the daily journey from the Navy Yards. PAUL WINFRED FLEENOR JR. Better late than never, said a famous bard and it could aptly be applied to Flees. Fleenor came a whole year late from Nathan Eckstein Junior High. Flee- nor's hobbies include, of all things, girls and cars, but he doesn't let them interfere too much with his academic work at Adelphia. His one desire and shining goal in life is to teach Fr. Hess history which, all will agree, is quite some goal, If, however, that fails, Paul wouldn't mind becoming a flight surgeon fthat's a doctor with wingsj. Flees' car usually can be found driving around the hill to either the mixer or to the Names. We hope Lady Luck smiles on Paul many times in the course of his life. 20 OLIVER RONALD FLOR The Horse romped into Prep as a Frosh from St. Anne's and practically be- fore his first class was down at Nlontlake cutting through tackle. A four year letter- man, Ollie chalked the following score: Football 1-243-4, Varsity 2-3-4, Team Cap- tain 4, Basketball 1-2-3-4, Varsity 2-3-4, Varsity Baseball 1-2-3-4. Besides these ac- complishments he also found time for Sodality 1-2, Letterman's Club 2-3-4, Veep 4, and Harlequin's Club 4 for a brilliant job in My Three Angels. To top it all off, Ollie was selected to be on the First Team for the All-Northwest Catholic Football Team in his junior and Senior years. All this and Ollie still has time for Ridge parties. His ambition is to see Mr. Meehan smeared in Peanut Butter.
