SPIRITUAL DIRECTORS FATI-IER MCCARTI-IY Although he has been with us Iess than two years, to us he seems a IiIe-Iong friend. Perhaps it is because ot his Icnowledge oI human nature, he discerns at once what is closest to the heart ot each of us and adapts his mood to our own.

LEO CLARK Clarl4ey -zealous class officer in each of his high school years, diligent business manager of per Annos, hardworlcing dance commit- teeman, is really one-in-a-million. ln school he is the answer to a teacherfs prayer, on gridiron or court, the answer to a coach's. ln spite of numerous virtues and undeniable good loolcs he remains so completely unassuming and without conceit that he meets with the approval of all who lcnow him. 8
