MICHAEL BRUHN Across the glimmering waters of Lake Washington stretches the Floating Bridge and across this bridge to Prep each day comes Mike Bruhn. Straight from the far off East Seattle School of Mercer Island came Mike, and immediately he became everybody's friend. His hobby is music, and his favorite saying is, Relax, ulcers are a dime a dozen. When he first came to Prep, Mike joined the Pep Band, and now at the end of his senior year he is one of the few four year veterans. Slipstick's ambition is to be a political scientist or a sociologist, but if he can't do that he will be perfectly satisfied if he can get Fr. Boyle to talk himself into a corner. ROCK CALEY Moose romped into Prep as a Fresh- man from St joseph's, and, practically before his first class, was down at Mont- lake displaying his prowess as a Frosh tackle. A two-year letterman, Rock played football 1, 2, 3, 43 and basketball 1, 2, 3, 43 joining the varsity in his Senior year. An outstanding player, he was elected to the All Northwest Catholic Football First Team. In addition to these accomplish- ments, Rock served a term as class secre- I tary of 4B, again proving his popularity around Prep. During the cold months, he can be found swooping down the snowy mountainsides with as much exuberance as he shows on the football held. His am- bition is to be a lawyer, and if popularity and good humor have anything to do with success, Rock will make a wonderful mouthpiece 5 i FRANK BUONO The Debate Club missed a bet when iey didn't sign up Frank Buono, a fellow ho can talk himself in and out of any- iing. Although he may not be the best, : is definitely the 'longest talker at Prep. s a Freshman he orated himself into the bs of class Veep, Sodality member, cheer- ader, football manager, and Cub basket- ill star. He continued with the sodality r two years and then joined the League the Sacred Heart. Having been a class cretary as a junior, he was elected Vice- 'esident of the Student Body and of the Ludent Council. lt was in his Senior year lat the Rabbi again resumed his duties . a yell leader. Frank's hobbies are con- fntrating on the opposite sex and mixing Jeveragesf' After graduation he plans to ad his own pilgrimage to Palestine and :en to return home and set himself up in isiness. 23 GARY MICHAEL CALLERO This year's editor-in-chief of the Echo, Gary Callero, is one of the boys from the wild and woolly woods of West Seattle where he graduated from Holy Rosary grade school. HRELAX ! l ! you'll live longer, is the cry he introduces himself with, but this does not apply to his activi- ties, which includeg student council 4, Sodality 1, Panther Staff 1, 2, 4, Pep Club 4, Harlequin Club 3, and, of course, Echo Staff 4. Out of the mass of humanity and confusion in room 23, Gary organized the '57 Echo, in spite of Mr. Olivier. A true Prepster, Gary has a very noble ambition -to get some homework in on time. After he has achieved this goal, he intends to pursue a career as a civil engineer.

WALTER BORIS BOORIAK Marymount Military Academy claimed Walt Booriak as a member of their student body for a year before he headed north to the big city and the school at Tenth and Miller. In the spring of '54, after getting acquainted with the lives and customs of Prepsters, he donned his thinclads and presented himself to Mr. Ahern, coach of the track squad. Walt stuck it out for three years and lettered while he was a Junior. This gave him the opportunity to join the Lettermans' Club 4. He was also found on the football field scoring a touch- down every once in a while for the Varsity. Turning to the maple courts we see Walt playing a lot of Intramural basketball for 4A. His ambition in this sport is to outshoot and outscore Mike Albrecht someday. ROBERT WALTER BOUSE If you should be greeted by a smile that stretches from ear to ear, you can be sure that that smile belongs to none other than Robert Bouse. Bringing his infectious smile into the Prep atmosphere from St. john's in 1953, Robert immediately got into the swing of things by joining the Sodality 1, 2. Since seeing what makes radios tick is one of Bob's hobbies, he joined the Radio Club 1, 2, 3. In his junior year the speaking bug bit him and he became a finalist in the Senior Elocution Contest. Cars and the urge to swoop down a snowy mountainside on a pair of skiis are Robert's remaining two interests. His dreams include a future as an electrical engineer. ffffwkm H, t I 1 A . gd 4.,it W 1. so s it srsfrpf .fwfr J, LA i lfqkk lil I ., Sz mm.-I 5 'I , x W i . . 3 -J X . 1 am. . .1 . , 55,5 ' 5' tx ' 5 .

EDWARD GEORGE BROWN A voice yells out, What d'ya say, Goose? and who should walk around the corner but that little man with the big mitt, Ned Brown. When Ned came to Prep, basketball was the first big attrac- tion so he spent a season with the Cubs. After that, he put on the catcher's mask and played behind the plate for the Soph.- Frosh. Baseball soon became Darb's first love and he spent his remaining three years calling signals for the Varsity. For this service he was awarded three big S's and three white stripes. But Ned proved that sports weren't the only thing that he knew how to do well. He was ASSP Secretary 3, Student Council member 3, 4, Athletic Director of 1A and ZA, Letterman's Club 3, 4, and is now its Sec.-Treas. Panther Club member 3, 4, and its Veep 4, Pep Club Prexy 4, Prom Committee 3, Echo Typing Editor 4, and League of the Sacred Heart 3, 4. Ned's ambition is to see the girl that refuses Albrecht a date and then he wants to head upstairs and play ball for the big leagues. X.

PAT JAMES CARAHER In 1953 Pat Caraher entered Prep from the far ,North and Assumption Grade School. Along with his studies, he tried his hand with the Cub basketball team. In his Sophomore year he turned from the hoop to the diamond and made the Soph- Frosh baseball team. And he is out running the field again this year. His loyal spirit and friendly personality won him a posi- tion with the Broom Pushers, the Panther Club, 45 and Fr. McHugh chose him as a member of the exclusive Sodality of our Lady, 4. After his graduation Pat plans to continue his education at the U and if he wins the teachers there as he has won us here, he is bound to be a big success. WILLIAM HAROLD CASTLE When springtime rolls around and the track team starts its turnouts, who should you see tossing the lead shot around but Bill Castle. An ardent trackman, Bill has turned out for this sport since he was a sophomore and has earned three Varsity letters. This gave him the right to join the Letterman's Club 3, 4. But track isn't his only sport for Bill also played Frosh football and Soph-Frosh baseball. In his sophomore year, he played B-Squad foot- ball and then, after a year's layoff, re- turned to the gridiron in a Varsity role. Bill's favorite saying is Hey, Tom Wold! and he uses these same words whether he's getting mad at or just saying hello to his fellow track-mate. After graduation he plans on studying to become the best M. D. in the city. M. .,.,.,.,, ..,,,. . . if 2 i Ziefa Iiii .1 . HAROLD WILLIAM CON KLIN Hailing from a colder clime, Bill Conklin decided to get a taste of jesuit education and entered Prep in 1953 from Ketchikan Alaska. The cheerful but silent type, Bill has made himself known around the school through his varied activities, which include: class veep 45 Letterman's Club 2, 3 and vice president of that group 4. Attracted by the bright lights of the stage, he joined the school Thespians in their production of The Miser 4. Athletics also caught his eye with: Frosh football 1, track 1, 2, 3, and Varsity football 2,1 4. His superb er- formance on the gridiron earned for him the Inspirational Award 4 and the honor of being named to the All Northwest Catholic Football lst team, 4. Looking over these achievements, we can be assured that Bill's high scholastic record and well- rounded activities attest to the future success of this Prepster. JOHN HENRY COUGHLIN john Coughlin came from St joseph's in 1953 and made good at Seattle Prep with a well- rounded background of activities. While he was a sophomore, he wanted to see what the Sodality had to offer, so he joined that group for a year. Also wanting to do some newspaper writing, john became a member of the staff of the Panther 2, 3, 4. In his junior year he became interested in speaking, so he signed up for the Hearst Oratory Contest and worked his way up to the school finals. Then in the spring of '56, john joined the newly-formed Tennis Team 3, 4, and scooted up to the No. 2 position. His hobby is taking vacations, any time of the yearg and his future ambition is to become either a lawyer or a journalist.
