Stukes is from the capitol city of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. After spending his freshmen year at Carson Long Institute, Stukes enrolled at St. Francis to become a member of the class of 1951. Stukes is one of the most popular boys in the class and seems to be everywhere at once. Because of his invaluable services to the soc- cer squad, as a goal keeper, Stukes became a member of the Varsity F Club. His athletic participation included intramural basketball, softball, track and swimming. We have enjoyed many fine socials in the past few years and Stukes has been on the committees for a num- ber of them. Our Iunior Prom and Senior Ball were given a helping hand by the fine work done by Stukes. He was also found in the sports department of this year's Boxwood. Music rates high with Stukes and flying holds a high place also, he is now working for a pri- vate license. Upon graduation in Iune he would like to begin his training in the Air Force. We wish him success in his new venture into the United States Air Cadet School and may your future years be filled with happiness.

Be- fore his entrance here at The Prep he had at- tended Lewistown High for three years. Upon his arrival he made friends by his bright smile. When Ioe arrived here for football training prior to the season he was able to gain a start- ing position as a guard by his hard work. For his fine play during the season he was awarded a varsity letter. Ioe participated in the activi- ties of the school paper, the Camera Club and the yearbook. In the intramural basketball league he was a high scorer tor his team and one of the high scorers in the league. Ioe, who likes to play tennis, hopes to make good use of his racquet for the honor and glory of the tennis team. As his favorite pastime Ioe finds great plea- sure in listening to music. Painting and writing letters to his admirers also take up much of his time. After graduation Ioe plans to enter Penn- sylvania State College and take up courses in Civil Engineering. We earnestly hope that you will have a very bright future.

V- ,nf--,Ji W -.-.N-HIEH Bob, more iamiliarly known as Spike by his classmates, comes from Hanover, Pennsylvania, where he had previously attended Hanover Iunior High. He was one of the best athletes at the Iunior High. When Bob entered St. Francis Prep in his sophomore year, he immediately showed his athletic ability, and he became a first-string player in football, basketball and baseball. In his senior year at the peak of his Prep school football career, when his pass receiving record was at its best, he broke his shoulder in the La Salle game. This injury prevented Bob from playing in the few remaining games. When basketball season came, he was considered one of the best defensive players and a great floor man. Baseball is Spike's favorite game and he is the longest ball hitter that the team has. His apt ability to scoop up hot grounders is very praiseworthy. Bob was treasurer of the junior class and Varsity F president this year. Bob's future ambition is to become a big league ball player. Next fall Bob hopes to con- tinue his education at Maryland University.
