ls . ANTHONY JOSEPH LUKE Tony arrived from St. Mary's with the Frosh class. Since that day he has been working on his clever and effective ways of cheating in Jesuit examinations, which methods he someday hopes to reveal to the world. When not pulling good grades in all subjects, he found time to become a finalist in the Senior Elocution Contest 3, and time to enlist in the Harlequin Club 3-4 for his tramping of the boards in Green Pas- tures where he died a rather untimely death. His hobby is hitting the little white ball over the net on the local tennis courts and his ambition is to become an engineer. His favorite saying is I wouldn't mock anybody, but of course that doesn't apply to Jesuits. PATRICK JAMES LYON From the other side of the canal comes the next Blessed Sacrament lad, Pat Lyon. VVith the roar of his dual pipes still echoing over the hill, Pat settled at Adelphia for a four year stay to gather an education. Pat joined Sodality 2-3 and gave his services to Radio Club 1. The rest of his time at Prep was spent at the books and behind the wheel of his hot Chev which can be found at noon on the hill near the Names This boy's philosophy is if you can't do it now, do it later, which applies to everything but his hobby of cars and girls. His erst- while goal in life is to become an engineer, but he could always give that up and become a custom Chev builder. JOHN JOSEPH MERLINO Spaghetti, drove up and bought a fou year ticket on the good boat Adelphia While on the stormy but pleasant cruis John sopped up a liberal education and great deal of popularity. He became Clas Secretary 2, joined Sodality 2, and Gle Club 3. For Green Pastures, he becam a Harlequin Club member 3-4. He eve tried his luck on the Track Team 1 bt became its very best manager for th remainder of his stay 2-3-4. His one desii in life is to see either Brandmeier's 4 Lyon's car stall in front of their girl house. But if that never happens, Joh will be content to become a success in lif He is sure to be one. RICHARD JAMES MANDEVILLE Benny migrated to Adelphia's halls and the land of the Jesuit as a Frosh in '52 from St. lVlargaret's. He managed the Foot- ball team that fall, and joined the Sodality, besides playing Basketball and Soph-Frosh Baseball. During his Sophomore year Dick concentrated all his efforts on playing Var- sity Baseball, and as a result found himself to be one of the few Sophomores listed as a member of the Letterman's Club. For the next two years he became a familiar figure on the Baseball diamond and all of Prep's opponents have come to recognize Benny's stream of chatter. Who knows, but maybe, as he hopes, Major League fans will like- wise watch his big brown glove and boom- ing bat in a few years?

MICHAEL RAYMOND LADNER johnson, you idiot! Thus we introduce another Edmonds boy, Mike Ladner. Though coming from that undefined region near Mukilteo, Mike calls Assumption his home grounds. Besides being funny, Mike is energetic and therefore joined Sodality 1-2, the staff of the Panther 1-4, Harlequin Club 4, and Frosh football 1. He also ioined his pal Kenny on the Track Team 3. Mike will always be remembered for his humor and for his fine showmanship in 'My Three Angels where his portrayal of an escaped convict was very convincing. Mike's hobbies include boating and fishing. l-lis ambition is either to be a successful TV :omedian or a prospering businessman. DALE JOHN LORAN G Lorangatang arrived at Adelphia from way up north in Christ the King Parish. After learning the tricks of being a Prep- ster through experience, Dale joined the Radio Club 1-2-3 and played Soph-Frosh baseball 2. When not behind a desk Dale can be found behind the wheel of his Pontiac. His one big ambition in life is to have a weed on the front steps of Prep while talking to guess who. Dale, who believes that Fr. McDonnell is the school's best comedian, is often heard to say, sure we will, to various teachers whose glory is assigning homework. His real earnest am- bition is to own his own body and custom shop. PETER ROBERT LOWMAN Yah, das mein ambition, to learn Ger- man, or, in other words, Pete ho s to get out of German class with a littlee knowl- edge. Pedro entered Adelphia straight from that famed former home of Prepsters, St. Catherine's. As a Frosh Pete played football, Cub basketball, and ran down the cinder track for the track team. The rest of his school life was spent in making with everyone. His favorite saying is No, no , but we don't know how he applies it unless it is to homework. His desire is to, some- day, have a cattle ranch all his own. This ambition fits in well with Pedr0's hobby of riding horses. Anyway, we wish Pete the best of success no matter what he does. 27 .

GARY LAWRENCE MIRANDA And an opthalmoscope torphelete sur- cingle good-bye from the next graduate, Gary Miranda. The Prep punjab arrived from Blessed Sacrament w'ith his diction- ary and fountain pen and has been poking a punning linger at everything since. Called Garibaldi by some and just plain Gary by others, he found time not only to write Pizon Poison for the Panther, of which he was a staff member 1-2 and on the editorial staff 3-4, but also to be on the Student Council 4, and to be Sodality Prefect 4 after being in Sodality 1-2-3-4. He was also a frosh footballer 1 and on Cub basketball 1. Referring again to his talented pen, may we remind you that he was also Feature Editor of this Echo and on the Echo staff 3-4. His ambition, by the way, is to write a book. JOSEPH THOMAS MORGAN Why? kSo enters popular Prepster, joe Morgan. Coming in with the flood from St. joseph's as a Frosh in '52, joe first joined a Prep activity when he played Frosh Basketball. Since then he has seldom been absent from a gathering of Prepsters. He was elected Class Athletic Manager as a junior and the same year he joined the Pep Club, the Panther Club 3-4, and the Prom Committee 3 of which he was chair- man. When he reached his senior year joe was elected Class Secretary. His hobby of eating and his ambition of having fun seem such that they will never contradict them- selves, and easy going joe will probably have pretty smooth sailing in the good years ahead. GEORGE JAMES M ORRISON Swish, and the scoreboard registers two more points for George Morrison, Straight from Holy Rosary out West Seattle way came this lad with a stack of books under one arm and a basketball under the other. Dribbling up the front walk and through the door George set about keeping his school activities as fast as his fast break in basketball. He joined Sodality 1-2-3-4, Pep Club 2-3, Panther Club 3-4, Letterman's Club 3-4, and was elected to Class Athletic Manager 1, Class Secretary 2, Class Veep 3-4, and the Prom Committee 3. On the athletic field George gave a try to football on the Frosh team but switched to his true love, basketball, on B-squad 2 and Varsity 3-4. As a Senior George was elected team Captain and led that team to many victories. 29 i 4 I PATRICK JOSEPH MCCOY Introducing the real McCoy. Pat ar- rived from Blessed Sacrament and wasted no time in participating in a variety of activities such as Sodality 1-2, Panther Staff 1-2-3-4, Debate Club 1-3-4, Pep Club 2-3, Cub basketball 1, Track Team 1-2-3-4, and Echo Stati 4. Furthermore Pat writes Prep's column in the Northwest Progress Pro-Teen. However Pat claims that his stay at Prep was not for education but to Find a short cut to the N.'XlNIliS. Quite a project. But not to be satisfied with just that, he wants to get a degree in college. Pat's talents are varied as is shown by his activities. His hobbies are also quite diver- silied as his interest in sports, women and popular music show.
