CLASS □ F ’50 Armando Flocchini Senior Class President Years after their departure from St. Ignatius High School, the members of the class of 1950 will look back affectionately on their high school days. Although they counted carefully the days until graduation, and counted eagerly, nonetheless they felt a tinge of regret at the thought of leaving SI for the last time. They had worked four long, hard years for Commencement Day, and could justifiably congratulate themselves when that Day finally arrived. During the years to come, many small reminders will be with them to help deepen their recollections of SI years. They have their rings, their year- books, their blocks—all precious relics to bring back the days of classroom cutups and jalopy journeys, of athletic achievements and the million and one other little adventures of their high school years.
