Pfeifer, Albert •41- ' 45 Big Al, the walking radio antenna has no trouble at all in keeping his head in the clouds. A firm believer in the old axiom, Never do tomorrow what you can do today, Al left us early in the year to do his bit in Uncle Sam ' s Army. Good hunting, buddie. Davis, Jack •43- ' 45 Glee Club 1, Crack Platoon 1. Jack, our smiling pyro- maniac from. Tucson, who had no trouble keeping the home fires burning has learned (by careful coaching of local authorities) to be more careful as to where he throws his cigarette butts. Meticulous in dress and or- derly in manner, Jack is only too ready to help a friend in need. No matter where he goes, if Jack manages his life as he did at St. Joseph ' s, the outcome will be inevit- able. Doll, Kenneth ' 44- ' 45 Hailing from the thriving metropolis of Speai-ville, Ken arrived looking like an en- cyclopedia vendor with a satchel full of books. After declining many offers from the Saturday Review of Literature, he settled in order to grant the members of the fairer sex the privi- lege of dancing with a Dolly with the book in his pocket. Studious and industrious, Ken will no doubt graduate in the upper tenth of his class. 43

Big Wilmer, big, big, Wil- mer — who matches brains with brawn with ease, is of the type which is referred to as, quiet and industrious. ' He is the answer to the school ' s prayer for a model Cadet.
