It has been our happy lot to find ourselves ranged side by side for four years in the gaily-painted quiver that bears a legend which to us symbolizes Friendship, Loyalty and Honor: The Class of 1945. The natural resting place of the arrow is in its quiver, and although the arrow may be worn by usage and the quiver may be scarred by time, the two will always be associated in memory and in reality.

DONAHUE Richie Football 1, 2 Baseball 1, 2 Basketball 1 Richie arrived at St. Sebastian's from the lovely town of Winchester on the day the School opened its doors. Sensing the importance of his status as one of the originals, Richie threw himself into the scholastic and athletic activities of the School with all of his undoubted ability. Born a protester, Richie's shrill tones afforded a constant background to all student activities during his years on the Hill. But always Richie was on his toes, as is best indicated by the fact that he won a scholarship for excellence in studies at the end of his first year. Yet, Richie was not a mere book worm. He was a fine athlete. He played foot- ball, baseball and basketball with outstanding success. In 1942, he was elected captain of the Blue football team, which won the School championship. What is more, he was able to tear himself from the books every summer long enough to run a two hundred acre farm at Georgetown, Mass. In his third year, the war caught up with Richie. He joined the U. S. Navy, where he has done well in the aeronautic schools. If persistence wins the crown in life, Richie will win all right. We all wish him good luck, and safe home. f f' Q- 'Q cf -' 'I 5 .fu-v- ' :1 5,-..7-1'j -N.....-' x -
