l Atilio came to The Prep from Maracaibo, Vene- zuela. He entered St. Francis as a sophomore in 1949. Atilio, although never having acquired ct nickname at The Prep, has become well known around the Prep. Atilio has participated in both intramural bas- ketball and softball. His greatest feat is being one ot The Prep's top soccer players, for he led The Prep eleven as its captain in 1950, and besides receiving his Varsity F letter, he re- ceived the Assistant Headmaster's Award for his splendid play on the soccer iield. He would .gngyf , have played baseball last year but because of a sprained ankle he was not able to play. Atilio hopes to play Varsity baseball this spring. He always has been a great music lover and during his spare time he tries to listen to as much jazz music as he possibly can. Dancing is also one ol Atilio's favorites. Whenever the school dances were put on you were sure to find Atilio in attendance. Atilio always proved to be a good student and we know that he set a good example for his roommates by his dili- gence at study.
