He is said to have often astonished classmates by his numerous food-snacks throughout the day. Despite this human weakness, Fr. Conway has an increasing number of conversions. The next picture is one of Father Rocco Cosentino, now holding the chair of geology at St. Joe. In his work he has under¬ taken numerous field trips. While in the Rocky Mountain region, he dis¬ covered a strata of rock similar to the stone used by the Pharaoh Buickea Amo in the construction of his tomb near the Nile. The third boy in the row is Father Ken Forsthoefel, who has been producing gratifying results for seven years at our Youngstown Negro Mission. He declared that if he should return to St. Joe he would feel like a fly in a pail of milk. The last lad in the second line is Father Grever, who has just returned from Bougainville, a battle ground of the last war. While on the island Father Grever did intensive research work to determine what type of tobacco can be grown there. “Beginning our third row we find a boy who is now Father Ralph Hunnefeld, chaplain at a large convent in La Crosse, Wisconsin. He has managed to write a series of pamphlets during his leisure moments. The majority of these treat of the use of diplomacy in both political and social life. The second fellow is Father Ed Keller, who has held the pastorate of St. Patrick’s Church at Cork, North Dakota for the last ten years. At first he experienced considerable difficulty in understanding the Gaelic of his parishioners, all of whom are immigrants from Ireland. Of Father Keller’s parish can be said, ' Out of a small acorn grew a mighty oak.’ Beside Father Ed is the boy who became Father Joe Peterman. Now at Vatican City, he is on leave from St. Joe, where he is professor of radio engineering. He is supervising the installation of an improved television station for the Holy Father. At the end of the row is Fr. John Reimondo, who is now preaching a series of spiritual retreats to different religious Twenty-jour

communities. Although his spiritual conferences are very lofty in thought, he has, nevertheless, written many spiritual books and pamphlets for children. “Over here in the center of the picture you see Father Bob Rein¬ hart, an able member of our mission band. He has often expounded the basic doctrine of the Church with great success over the ‘Catholic Hour’ radio program. The next lad is the present Father John Royle. With all required knowledge in his favor, Fr. Royle has been called to the M.I.T. to specialize in mechanical drawing. He has recently created an archi¬ tectural curve never before dreamed of by man. Beside Father John is the mathematical wizard of his high school and college days, Father Paul Schenk. He is continuing his noted reputation as math. prof, at St. Joe. He is also the author of the popular textbook, ‘Mathematical Nightmares.’ The last boy in the row is Father Louie Schneider. As you might know, Father Louie has successfully prepared a diet book for ailing, sluggish people whose main meal is prescribed to be eaten before retiring. “Here in the fifth row we find Monsignor Ed Schopp. Returning to St. Joseph’s after years of canvassing on the highways and byways of America, the Monsignor has reported that all of the debates with atheists, infidels, and other contestors of the Catholic religion were de¬ cidedly in his favor. That boy grew up to be Father Tony Spitzig. As a zealous missionary, he has been very successful in his work among the natives of Brazil, South America. A curious, amphibious vehicle, de¬ signed by his bright nephew, has helped him much in his traveling between mission posts. The lad with the blonde hair, Father Don Thieman, has been appointed to a mission parish in Kansas. The small church has just received a bell, and I am told that every evening Father’s figure, silhouetted by the setting sun, is seen ringing the Angelus. The end boy in the fifth row is Father Leo Tonner. Because of his musical talents, he has been given a faculty seat at the University of Lima, Peru. He is an instructor of Gregorian chant and other Church music. Twenty-six
