THE OLD GANG OF ' 46 LOUIS ABBOTT Louie is a new member of the senior class. Coming from Wolcott, Indiana, he has made many friends in the short time he has been a member of the student body. With his knowl¬ edge of game laws and other like laws of the State of Indiana, he should be an ideal Hoo- sier. Quiet and unassuming, he is bound to be a perfect citizen. Considering the weight he carries around with him, he should be quiet and unassuming. We’ll always remember Louie as the “brain” of Fr. Fred’s civics class. NORMAN ASCIIERMAN It seems that every student on the campus either knows or has heard of Norm. Dubbed the “Sleeping Beauty” of the Senior Class, he is famous or infamous for his ability to drop off to sleep anytime or anywhere. Very young looking for his age. Norm attributes his youth¬ ful looks and beauty to the extra sleep he manages to grab whether it be in the class¬ room, auditorium, “J” cafe, or refectory. Man¬ ager of the Raleigh Club this year, he has picked up a few more pointers on how to be¬ come a pool shark. GERALD BECK Now there’s a fellow to talk about! Any young man that can finish high school in three years and maintain an excellent average all the way through deserves to be talked about. This is exactly what Jerry has done. Former¬ ly from Illinois and now an inhabitant of “sunny” California, Jerry should have a lot of fun out there with beautiful movie stars. Living just about a mile from U. C. L. A., he should find school close at hand every morn¬ ing, although not the 300 feet from his class rooms at St. Joe. ALEJANDRO BELDEN Coming via Monterrey, Mexico City, and Austin, Texas, we have a young fellow with a flair for mathematics. Rich in knowledge of figures (and I use the word loosely) Alex should go places in the engineering field. He doesn’t look half bad on the basketball floor either. Alex knows how to handle that sphere. Also he knows how to handle the hooves. Girls, this little fellow can dance like Arthur Murray. Sometime when you get the urge to dance, drop in at the Belden ha¬ cienda in Monterrey, and I assure you the trip will not have been in vain. JOHN CHAMBERLAIN And now in this corner we have John Ham¬ ilton. Known as “Bookie”, “Slugger”, and “Cue-Ball”, John is best known as the “Charles Atlas of St. Joe”. The “Slugger’s” right, de¬ veloped by continually dipping ice cream in the “J” cafe, almost puts Charles Atlas’ to shame. Summarizing his three years at St. Joe the following poem does well: John is a young “Atlas” so they say. He comes from up Michigan way. Of John many things you can say. The best is: He worked hardest in the “J”. ARTHUR CLEMENS Art comes from southern Indiana—“Way down thar in them hills”, as the saying goes. In his senior year it seemed as though Art never thought about his own welfare but the welfare of those poor, innocent freshmen. Ah yes, I fear that the freshmen will never forget Art Clemens of the senior class. Many’s the time “Clem” was seen plodding along in slouch hat and “Lil Abner’s”, heading for the Administration Building. (That’s where the freshmen live). No slouch in the classroom, his brain is covered with a mop of some¬ thing resembling hair. My mistake, it is hair. LEROY DREILING Known as “Kansas” to the fellows, Lee has come a long way from that little town of Victoria, Kansas. A mainstay on the line, Lee earned his monogram at tackle. He’s a natural born football player. Standing around six feet, big and burly, he is really a very fine chap. If his ability to play baseball can be judged by the performances of his uncles, he should go a long way in sports. Working his way through school, Lee can be heard daily singing, (anyway that’s what he calls it) while doing his chores in Eastern Seifert. ROBERT EDER One of the fellows hailing from North Ver¬ non, “Bobby Joe” is a typical St. Joe man. Bob captained the varsity five through the best season at St. Joe. Recently classified 1-A in the draft. Bob is expected to see service in Uncle Sam’s army. No other student in the Academy is as lucky as Bob when it comes to a roommate. Last year Bob did all the clean¬ ing of his room. This year, “His man Pete” is the chambermaid of “Momo’s” room. An ex¬ cellent student. Bob is destined to go places. CON FECHER Our boy Connie is another typical St. Joe man. Participating in all sports, Connie was proficient in all. He captained the St. Joe gridiron eleven through some pretty rough games. Everywhere Connie goes he carries with him a certain kind of humor. He thinks his jokes are the funniest. But we’ll forgive him because Fred Allen is another one. Every¬ thing considered, Connie is a swell fellow. He’ll do anything for you (for a price) and you’ll never see him without that smile that is so much a part of Connie Fccher, the kid from Dayton. JAMES FROMMEYER This fellow Frommeyer is something to write home about. Anyway there’s enough to write about. “Jelly” comes from Cincy where he is now attending college after graduating at the half. A familiar sight on the campus (and I do mean sight), Jim is very active in all student activities. From the way he handled the student election, “Jelly” should go far in the field of politics. Big Jim’s a boy that can smile when the chips are down. A stalwart member of the football team, Jim is a real pal that will long be remembered. Page twenty
