ALFRED ULYSES BELLIVEAU The first look at Al is tremendously in his favor—for his whole general appearance attracts, especially the clean wholesomeness of his personality and neatness of attire. Those who know him best vouch for his powers as a comedian and the real humor of the never corny stories with which he regales his hearers. ALFRED JOSEPH BERGERON Al has the happy faculty of always taking a bright out- look on life and seeing the good points in others, rather than their weaknesses. It is in math and science that Al is at the top, although he would prefer not to attract attention to himself. Track is the sport in which Al revels and excels. PAUL EDWARD BOUDREAU Paul, hailing from Leominster, came to us sophomore year and soon became a favorite. His fun-loving nature is revealed from the mischievous glint in his eyes. Outside school he works off surplus energy in outdoor sports, espe- cially swimming and skiing; and fooling around with radio and television sets. RAYMOND HOWARD BRAY Ray, strikingly tall and a neat dresser, is a welcome pro- ducer of healthy chuckles in his immediate vicinity. He has no idle moments, as he continually keeps occupied with many and varied interests, especially art, for which he has a special aptitude. Ray may yet be our proud boast as a second michelangelo. DAVID BERNARD BRENNAN Dave delayed until sophomore year to make his debut at St. Bernard’s but soon made up for this lost time, by the rapid speed with which he made new friends. Besides being a good student, Dave has been active in the French Club, BERNARDIAN staff, basketball team, and treasurer of the Dramatic Club. 20

SALVATORE JOSEPH ALBERT Musical Sammy has been in the foreground even back in portable days, when his sax harmoniously blended its tones with the rest of our orchestra. It is also to energetic Sam's credit that he did his best to lead our teams along the road to victory during his three years as manager of major sports. NORMAN WILLIAM BATES Extremely well-liked Norm is one of our best all-round athletes. But it is on the basketball court that he shines most, having been on the varsity squad since sophomore year. Norm also distinguishes himself on the baseball dia- mond. The prospects also look bright for his becoming a future tennis champ. ADRIEN ARTHUR BEAUDETTE There is nothing small about good-natured Zippy either in his size, generosity, or friendliness. Always a dispenser of good cheer, he even makes the kiddies happy with his toy shop. In his leisure moments, he finds enjoyment in playing ball, hunting, fishing, and making old cars quite peppy again. LEON SIMEON BEDARD For two years Lee has been a conspicuous figure on the gridiron. That he also has dramatic ability was proven by our November play. Although never pushing himself for- ward, Leon is a familiar figure in groups enjoying them- selves immensely. He is also a fine skiier, swimmer, and electrical wizard. FRANCIS NICHOLAS BELLAFIORI Gentlemanly Frank has no enemies for he never antagon- izes anyone, but is always unselfishly considerate of others. Frank's perseverance and business ability accounted for his success on the yearbook advertising committee. We know that Frank will always be a loyal supporter of everything Bernardian. ies,

JOHN WALTER CAPUTI This tall, manly Southsider is a sower of peace and harmony wherever he goes, and never gets himself into trouble as some of us do by our over talking. But John always has a cheerful note to add to our little friendly confabs. We all like John because he can take a joke on himself as well as give a good one. RENE PAUL CARON You may be sure that where there’s laughter, there's Rene. But he’s never boisterous nor disturbing in his mirth, but in his own quiet way enjoys himself immensely, and mixes in well with all sets. There’s nothing spasmodic about his even cheerful disposition, for he’s always the same pleasant Rene. DONALD OLIVER CHARETTE Don, another of our Leominster boys, although not with us as a freshman, soon made up for lost time, as the num- ber of his SBHS friends testifies. His quiet, unassuming manner, willingness to plunge into things and do his bit are a few of the traits we like in Don. Photography and radio are his pet interests. AIME GUY CHARPENTIER Just one look at happy-go-lucky Carp and you can tell by the flash of his wide-awake eyes that some fun-provoking scheme is being hatched in his alert mind. Generous almost to a fault, Carp never hesitates to use his jallopy as a school bus for his Leominster pals. Carp is a fine skiier, skater, and hunter. LEO PAUL COLLEVTE Affable Leo never seeks to have the spotlight focused on himself, although he holds his own tenaciously when it comes to expressing himself in a good recitation. With a very friendly, helpful interest in others, Leo is always a most agreeable companion. Football is the game that Leo likes best to play. 21
