lose or Cracker, as he was nicknamed, came to The Prep from Maracaibo, Venezuela, as a jun- ior in 1949. lose became well known around The Prep in a short time because he was a fine student and was eager to be busily engaged in all of the activities of the school. He has lent his talents to various campus or- ganizations in his two years as a student. An active member of the Camera Club, Iose was a photographer for The Hill staff and The Box- wood, and his ability to snap candid pictures was uncanny. The Mathematics Club and the Glee Club are other extra-curricular activities in which lose is an active member. Besides being a member in all these societies, his name was often a familiar sight on the Scholastic Honor Roll this past academic year. Iose's la- vorite activities are writing letters and swim- ming. Next September lose hopes to enroll at the University of Notre Dame to major in Civil Engineering. We extend to you our sincere wishes for happiness, success and prosperity in the future years to come.
