FOURTH ACADEMIC GERARD KELLY The class of '44 will, we trust, live long in the history of St. Fidelis. Our class has few geniuses but many practical men. Examples of this are: Louis Nemeth, our demure senior, has proved his worth by keeping peace and order in the study hall. Red Hobaugh demonstrated his blitzkrieg abilities in bringing out the April edition of the Echo. Joe Farkas will 'be remembered for his stirring interpretation of Judas in the annual Passion Play. Roman Groskiewicz during the past year dili- gently applied himself to the numerous duties as librarian. George Zivic was Fr. Director's personal secretary. Dick Rowe, long, lean, and learned, is an intelligent bright spot. He has performed his oflice as sacristan in a highly efficient manner. Red Stuber and his masterful rendition of Alfred Noyes' The Highway- man will long be remembered. Joe Finerty was chief dispenser of sweets and religious articles in the mission store. Lastly, there is your humble scribe. His only hope for immortality lies in the fact that, through winter snows and summer heat, he has piloted the seminary car, running errands for Fr. Director, chauffeuring, and keeping that Sunday shine on our Plymouth.

FIRST COLLEGIATE ANTHONY MOLISKI In 1937, as we entered the beckoning embrace of the seminary, we became acquainted with the road to the priesthood. It was not a smooth open highway, but rather a tortuous mountain road. Winding around rocks, overlooking deep crevices, and precipitous inclines, the road ahead with its twelve milestones, looked treacherous and unsurpassable. But at its summit lay the holy priesthood and a resplendent golden chalice, which gave us strength and courage to begin the ascent. We were bothered at the beginning by homesickness, new subjects, and initia- tion. Two years later, those horror books, Kaegi-Kleist, and Evans-Roesller made their attacks. At times, success and victory seemed within our grasp, but then a landslide would come, and snatch them from us. But the thought of what awaited us at the end of our journey revived our somewhat disintegrated courage, and by perseverance and good effort, we hit the enemy wherever and whenever we could. Now, with our eyes to the future, with regenerated strength, joyful hearts and the help of God, we continue our journey in quest of the holy priesthood.

THIRD ACADEMIC JOHN PAGER There are only nineteen weather-beaten veterans left in our class of many more beginners, but still we manage to have quite a variety of talents, temperaments and tomfoolery. In our more serious moments in the classroom and study hall we spend many delightful Cahem U hours unravelling the mysteries of Kaegi-Kleist's and Dr. Schultz's respective and respected grammars. In geometry our circles and squares and proofs are of the highest quality. And in other branches-German, English, economics and religion-we do our best to satisfy our professors and lay in a strong foundation for future years. The class is likewise well represented in sports, poetry and literary activities. We have reached the halfway mark here at St. Fidelis. This year we bid farewell to the junior department and look forward to our years in the senior department, hoping that we will prove ourselves worthy of being seniors at St. Fidelis Seminary.
