THE STAR QQQQQQQQ P I EQEEEWEQ VVALTER MILLER WALLIE Wallie is a student of abilityg perhaps that is why we sometimes see him with spectacles gently reposing on his nose, It seems there is nothing he likes better than a Trig problem. His motto in that line seems to be, The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Another of Waltfs favorite hobbies seems to be producing irrefutable argu- ments in defense of paying class dues land by the way, he isn't treasurer either!! He sure can argue. He also likes to express his sentiments in poetry, in which he excels. It is rumored that Walter intend.s to resme his matheamitcal studies at college. He has our hopes for success. ROBERT MOREY BOB Bob a quiet, soft-spoken individual, is our idea of a perfect gentleman. He has distinguished him- self by his musical talent as official pianist at assem- bly and as senior member of the famous musical duo, Keischgens and Morey, But he has not con- fined his talent merely to music for he has taken time to excel as a scholar. He possesses a rare judgment of books and magazines which he brought into play as Exchange Editor of the Star. Bob leaves St. Joe's with our best wishes for success in what- ever he undertakes. FRANCIS C. O'CONNOR OKEY Frank has at last worked himself up to the posi- tion of a Senior, and. now is about to step into the world on his own merits. He has distinguished himself in football and his good spirit around the school. Frank aspires to be a lawyer, We wish him success, as he is a fine, square fellow. RAMYOND V. O'CONN'0R WAGS In your wanderings about the corridor, if you hear a hail coming seemingly from the next floor, you know that Ray is saying Hello! He has made a name for himself on the class basketball team. and we think he is a very good clock-winder too. We hope Dame Fortune smiles on this member of mr class.

THE STAR ,QQQQQEQ 1 5 1 D . -1 , ' F 'f I EWEQEQEQ K ERIN P. LYONS HROARINGH Here we present the able manager of St. .Ioseph's most successful football team. Roaring is the nickname often applied to him, and it seems to characterize the youth to perfection. When louder noises are made, Lyons will make them, would be a fitting motto. But Kerin's marks show that he does not devote all his time to creating disturbances. ln parting let us say good luck! CHARLES J. McDONOl'GH RED Red seems to have several other nicknames, but this one has stuck. Although diminutive in size, he has shone brightly in his studies and has carved a name for himself on the class basketball team. llc is a loyal friend of the school, and is quite popular. CURNELIUS F. MAHNER NEIL Although Neil has never led the class on the Honor Roll, he has been a valuable member of our class, He has shown himself capable of indulginf: in all our doings, is always ready to help, and is what is generally termed a good mixer. HDVVARD VV. MATHIAS UMARM AD l ' KE Ed is a newcomer to our ranks, having spent three years of a very successful career at Lafayette High. During his short stay with us he has estab- lished a remarkable record, and is one of the most popular Seniors. The success of the 4-B debating team was due almost entirely to the glib tongue ot this young man. Ed's ambition is to be a lawyer. VVe wish him success. Tuwnfy one

H- I I 4 li 4 1 i 4 ,as 'wo vw: THE STAR ALFRED PA l'OllILLET HAL Students not long acquainted with St. Joe's are liable to take this tall, well-groomed, smiling, distin- guished-looking student for a foreign diplomat, but such an illusion is quickly dispelled when the fam- resounds along the cor- reticence, Al is popular He shines particularly as an ad-getter and business man. No doubt some day he will replace Ambassador Herrick as America's rep. resentative to the land of his forefathers. Bon Voyage, Al, wherever you may steer your course. iliar greeting, Hello, Al, ridors. Despite a certain with those who know him. DANIEL PESCHIO PESCH Pesch is the boy who likes it when reports are given out each Monday. That's because he always manages to get his share of 100 per cents. He is our model tor French, Latin and Mathematics, i'or in these subjects he's a genius. We have al- ways considered him as a sort of walking en- cyclopedia, at least that is the way it seems, judging from the number of questions we ask him each day. Dan likes recreation, but he never lets play inter- fere with his studies. VVe are still wondering why he always says Says which? when asekld a ques- tion. We hear that Dan expects to study medi- cine after leaving St. Joe's. Go to it Pesch. JAMES R. PRIVITERA MU'SSOLINI Mussolini is a great man. He is quite popular around the school, and is among the leaders in the class. By the way, he must be a glutlton for punish- ment-witness all the objets d' art that grace his many notebooks. VVe hope Jim has as much success in later life as he has had in school. JOHN RAY SOUP Jack is one of our representatives from South Buffalo. He has the happy faculty of mixing humor with all his undertakings and has consequently been a wonderful companion during our four years at St. Joe's. One remark from Jack is more than enough to throw the most serious class into a state of confusion. Jack, however, can afford bo be care- free for he has always maintained a high standard in his -scholastic activities. Good-bye, Jack, and Good Luck for the future. Twenty lhiee
