At the risk of incurring legal penalty, we now apply this classic maxim to our pres- ent exalted status. ive Proclaim, The proof of the student is in the graduating. In ap- proximately twenty-four hours, we the ninety- eight members of Saint Clement High School, Class of nineteen hundred and forty-six, will unclutch our clenched fists long enough to grasp the coveted engraved parchment for which we have been laboring for four long weary years. Our grasping of this aforemen- tioned elusive symbol of success will consti- the well-worn corridors of our Alma Mater, tute the final official act of our high school career. Then, for the first time, we shall tread as newly initiated members of the Saint Cle- ment Alumni. Our minds are prone to wander down the corridors of time and we smile again at the adventures of our errant knights of learning in their quest for knowledge. A survey spon- sored by Francis Manning, Lorraine Morin, Lea Griffin and Herman Oberle revealed a tie between Caesar's Gallic Wars and The Adven- tures of Mickey Mouse, as the book of the year. The French enthusiasts Neil Sullivan, Red O'Brien, Sarge Grant and John Canniff, favored a French novel which they affection- ately titled, L'il Abner Constantine, but the rest of the class consider this a prejudiced opinion. The prevailing influence which ele- vated The Adventures of Mickey Mouse to such heights of booklovers' esteem emanated from the bright lights in English, Robert lfveidhorn, Olga Coscia, Marie de Montigny and Robert Harhen. Our interest in literautre, however, did not pause long in passive perusal of the printed page. YVe took an energetic part in enacting the vicissitudes of life as staged in Dorff Take My Penny, our junior jroduction. Romanti- cally linked were Red Barrett the made an enticing blondej and Barb Doherty, John Bradley a11d Rosemary Monahan, Gerry QThe F armerj Spurr, Betty Carew, Stanley O'Reilly and Mary Jacqueline Mahoney. The exquisite gowns designed by Monsieur Paul Landry, delivered daintily fwith a loud noisej by Law- rence MacLean, and modeled charmingly by Marylu Steeves, Teresa Flanagan and Dot Smith, contributed an alluring atmosphere. Mary Irwin's sincere interpretation of the sensible influence of Grammar restored peaceful order out of tumultuous chaos. We did not confine our dramatic skill to the stage. After concocting a bromine explos- ive according to an original formula Walter fLaughing gasj Enos, Bill Doyle, Dick Foun- tain, Eddie Joyce, Jerome Barry and John Sul- livan were apprehended crooning, I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire. In the bio- logy class Marilyn Canty, Mary Josephine Ma- honey, Mary Hegarty, Kathleen O'Brien, Rita Long and Mary Fahey demonstrated the scien- tific aspects of dissection by the well-skinned frogs they left behind them. Angie Depinto, the lucky girl, was fortunate enough to be the sole feminine decoration of the physics group which boasted such reput- able personalities as Charlie Doherty, John Connors, Joe Bradley and Danny Casonova Murphy. Einstein's theory of relativity was simplified by our mathematicians, Helene Springs, Pat Smith, Lorraine Hurley, Marie Magner and Mary Bradley, in their substitu- tion of the theory of relaxation. Typewrit- ing perion was stimulated by Joe Penta who typed fifty-two words a minute, that 'is to say, fifty-two minus fifty-two. The flying fingers of Marie LoCicero, Mary Geary, Mary Healy and Ruth Treanor were the source ofgwistful glances cast by Gert Murphy, Kay Cross, Mary Burke and Rosemary McLaughlin who coined a new epithet every miss' stroke. Clarice Cos- cia, Anne Doherty, Esther Patturelli and Mary Naughton were representative of' our promis- ing stenographers, who, we are happy to say, are still surviving, surprising enough, after two fantastic years of shorthand.
