The A N l li E A N Page Seven CLASS OF 1953 RICHARD ALMOND Richard Dick Almond entered Saint Andrew ' s on September 14, 1943. He has been at the school longer than any other student. During his long tenure he has established many friendships through his warm friendly nature. He was appointed Senior Prefect, elected president of the senior class, president of the Perry-Coleman Council, and captain of the 1952 football team. He is currently responsible for the delivery of mail to and from the campus. Dick has done an excellent job in sports. He has played little basketball or baseball, but on the football field he has found his medium. Although often misjudged by many opponents, no player op- posing Rocky , (his nickname matches his ability) ever had an easy 32 minutes against him. A trick knee kept him out of some of the early games, but he returned to the squad and continued to make an enviable record. Dick ' s good qualities do not end here. He has continuously made better than average grades in academic work. We all wish Dick the best of luck and hope that he continues his success in future fields. James Jim Duke came to Saint Andrew ' s on June 27, 1948, from New York City. Since that time he has successfully worked on several projects. He was a member of the campus crew, on the farm, a houseboy, and is now in the carpenter shop. His interest has leaned toward the farm and shop. Jim has taken part in many dramatic productions. His best-remembered role was that of Old Ned, the trapper, in Holmes ' original play. The Trixters, which he played with vigor and realism. His favorite sport is football in which he made Rhode Island All-Prep center last year. He was con- sidered by his coach the best center in Bristol County. It is certain that the boys who played on the 1952 football squad agree. ., Jim plans to enter the U.S. Air Force following his graduation. Upon completion of his military service an artist ' s career is next on the agenda. The members of the senior class wish Jim the best of luck for the future. JAMES DUKE

John Pedro Griffiths entered St Andrew ' s in July of 1944. He knew very little English as he had lived in Cuba until this time. He did know, however, the most important word in our language. This was eat . At this process Pedro was and is unexcelled. Pedro has always been a good student, ranking well up in his class. He played all three sports. By far his best was baseball, in which he received three varsity letters and will undoubtedly receive his fourth this year. He has played and received letters in football and his prospects for recognition in basket- ball this year are very good. He has worked at various jobs in the school and has handled them all successfully. He was on the farm, in the carpenter shop with Mr. Quinn and at the school laundry. He is now with Mr. Heelon as stock clerk. Pedro ' s present plans are to join the U.S. Air Force after graduation. We know his sincerity and perseverance will serve him well in whatever he may choose. i ■■■?H ■ c2Ek jft J ■■ . . JOHN GRIFFITHS
