September 1956 Presidents elected to guide their classes through their final and most important year were B. Naumes 4-A, J. In- graham 4B QD, T. Frey 4B QZJ, and J. Mitchell 4-C. Together with studies, extracurricular activities formed a great art of the seniors' lives. Varsity team captain John Miller led the Panther gridders through a successful season. The Varsity hoop-shooters headed by captain Al Lemieux held their own on the maple courts. Blazing a trail down Washington's wintery slopes was the Ski Club with chief Alpinist Richard Davidson. The muscle behind the paddle- swingers was Letterman's club prexie Gene Hogan. Blue-sweatered men of the new Panther Club performed their omnibus activities under Bob Naumes. Beneath grease paint and eyebrow pencil, Todd Emanuel, as resident of the Harlequin Club, led Prep's thespians through the clubis two excellent productions The Miser and H, M. S.

MICHAEL LOUIS ALBRECHT In September of 1953, Mike .Albrecht made the long journey from Bellevue jr. High to Seattle Prep. This became a mo- mentous occasion for both Mike and Prep, for Mike was to receive a good Catholic foundation for his future and Prep was to receive the talents of a very active young man. Mike started off with a bang by being elected Pres. of 1A and Captain of the Frosh football team. He also turned out for the Ski Club and played Cub basketball and Soph.-Frosh. baseball. The next year saw him President of 2A and the proud possessor of the first of three Varsity letters which he won on the mound for the Panthers. Finally he was elected Student Body Prexy in his Senior year. Some of his other activities were Letterman's Club 3-4, Panther Club 3-4, Prom Committee Chair- man 3, and Echo Business Manager 4. Mike, can frequently be heard exclaiming, What a queen! His ambition is to an- nihilate Bakun with much suffering on Andy's part. M: Il GARY GILBERT AREL The year 1956 saw Gary tramping up Seattle way from Acalanes High School in Lafayette, California. He immediately started making friends and became very popular at Prep. Having arrived in the middle of his junior year, he really became active as a Senior. Bunny was elected class Veep, joined the Pep Club and be- came its Sergeant-at-arms, and signed up with the Harlequin Club. He took over the title role in The Miser, and, by reason of his fine performance, was chosen the best actor of the Senior Class. Besides drama, he likes reading and jazz. Before he leaves the city, Gary wants to build a four-lane turnpike between Holy Names, Forest Ridge, and Prep. Next stop-Santa Clara and a dental course. ANDREW BAKUN III Here, in the form of one tall and lanky tow-headed senior, we have none other than Andy Bakun. Hailing from St. Cath- erine's in the North End, he came to Prep as a freshman and has been here ever since. The Seattle Prep Panther caught Andy's eye and he became a reporter for that newsrag 1, 2. Affectionately called Smooth Drew by his classmates, Andy spends most of his spare time making friends around the school. He does not neglect his studies, though, which is shown by his high average in the Honor Classical Course, and his recent qualification in the National Merit Scholarship Exam. Always a cheer- ful soul, Andy can be frequently heard exclaiming, Hey, Mister, tell Albrecht to shut up. GARY WILLIAM BALDWIN In 1953, Gary made the relatively short trip to Adelphia from Holy Family School. Now he makes the comparatively long trip to school all the way from the town of Puyallup. Figuring he should attend to spiritual things first, he signed up with the Sodality for four years. When the call came out for entrants in the Senior Elocution Contest, Baldi's name headed the list and he became a Finalist 3, 4. ln his senior year he joined the Debate Club and the Echo staff of which he was named Copy Editor. Once in college, Gary plans to major in Animal Husbandry because as a farmer and debater I've had so much experience with bulls. Seriously, though, he hopes to earn a Ph. D. This seems to follow, because his hobbies are music and writing, and his favorite and most frequent saying is, Who's got the Greek translation?
