72 .Ll J -5: . ll Of late the Maroon Crew has become quite a highly regarded aggregation. The oar benders found in the junior ranks include Jim Wynne, Larry Lauer, Jim McMullen, Dave Gillig, and Bud Kur- ban, as well as coxswain Joe Rotunda. Mainstays of the Track and Cross-Country teams were miler Xander Pitass, and 440 star Leon Greene, as well as Jerry Bartz and Jack Crotty, outstanding in the half mile and sprint respectively. There proved, this spring, to be many baseball prospects in the class of '55. Dave McLaughlin and Joe Jacobi made a formidable battery, supported by Roger Mattulke and Ken Gantress. Greeting Brother William to form the nucleus of the golf team were Dick Leahy, John Fox and Jim Connerton. Moving away to the chess field, we find juniors to be the kingpins of the team. Enthusiasts of the sport of kings are Joe Voelkl, Ken and Pete Mc- Mahon, and Jim Connerton. The Debating Society claimed John Castro, Lo- ville Martlock and Gail Gurtner as its chief mem- bers. Juniors comprised a large part of the staff of the Student Prints as well as supplying next year's editorial staff. These new editors, headed by Dave Collins and John Whitehead, are Bert Maggioli, Jim Mischler and Fred Lavin. Joe Voelkl, John Whitehead and Jerry Finaldi also contributed greatly to this publication, the '54 Star. Wait 'till next year, seems to be the philoso- phy of the Junior athletes, while the same boys, from a scholastic viewpoint, need only point to this year's record. Front row: G. Zientara, J.

Those of the Class of '55 out- standing in this field are Bert Maggioli, Larry Aloi- sio, and Dave Collins, to name but a few. To disprove the all brains and no brawn theory, the next few paragraphs will deal pri- marily with the accomplishments of the athletes. Last fall, among the third year men bolstering the ranks of the Varsity Football team, were Phil Shalala, Joe Crowley, Bill Gondek, Bob Surowiec, and a host of others. Though the team's record was not overly impressive, the tremendous spirit kindled cannot be overlooked. What with these returnees and some of the yearlings from the Jay Vee aggregation, who knows-next year might be our turn. Speaking of the Jay Vee'ers who are often for- gotten in the rush and excitement that accom- panies the publicity of any varsity sport, John French, Fred Lavin, and Roger and Ron Davison filled key positions on a highly successful eleven. Six juniors were chosen to serve on the Varsity Basketball team. Skip Smith, Russ Porter, Dave Mc- Laughlin, Joe Jacobi, and Larry Aloisio were se- lected in addition to Tex Ritger, who, because of his fabulous rebounding, was named to the All- Catholic teams of both Buffalo dailies. Here again, the Jay Vee hoopsters, who pro- vided plenty of fast, exciting action in the pre- liminary contests, should not be passed over with- out a word or two. Although this squad was com- posed mainly of sophomores, Pat Cunningham and Joe Bieron contributed heavily to the success of this team. If-l fi - x Q oP2 x -Z i 4 to 1 xl I X Xl sl X1 wi Xl mi
