Far from being depressed by the academic chores imposed by our Faculty, the Newton blond blithely committed himself to extra- curricular instruction in Spanish, dancing, piano and ski-ing. That this all-around development would one day pay dividends was demonstrated quite recently when Bud junior made a selection in the stock market that proved to be better than the choice of a more experienced adviser. We do think, however, that in the time to come he will probably change his present conviction that it takes 330,000 a year to live comfortably. A good student in the scientific branches of learning, Bill would be tremendously pleased to learn that Latin had been outlawed. Under Fr. Harrington's tutelage, he gained immensely from membership in the Science Club and even found time to sharpen up his argumentative talents by verbal exchanges in the Debating Society. Socially Bud was rather an enigma for at times he could not even remember the name of his charming companion and yet on other occasions he could be a fascinat- ing conversationalist quite ready to discuss the vagaries of Modern Art. Although he was a backfield candidate in his Junior year, Bud much preferred to play his sports on an informal plane. His devotion to the great outdoors made him a ski-ing enthusiast and he was highly pleased to be made a member of the Ski Patrol at Brae Burn. As an Alpine Club member he made the annual trek to the North Country and on local slopes even persuaded his father to risk life and limb. Yachting and Tennis competed for his attention in the Summer time and he was the proud skipper of his own 110. To make the Winter more alatable, he was among the first to join the newly-formed Swimming Club and to take advan- tage of the weekly sessions at near-by pools. Whatever the season, he could always keep in an athletic atmosphere by stepping into his dad's shop to greet the, devotees of all sports. To prepare himself for the commercial world, Bill will matriculate either at Holy Cross or Georgetown. Smooth sailing, Bud, and may we meet you often on the cruise of life! -I 22 1-

Once he had become interested in the School through the reports of his cousin, Dick Watson, the Belmont lad decided that he had been missing some- thing and promptly joined our ranks. It did not require many meetings with Hugh for the Faculty and student body to agree that the newcomer had all the qualifica- tions necessary to make him acceptable to both groups. To his studies he brought a keen mind and a zest for learning that satisfied every teacher and made his presence on the Honor Roll a foregone conclusion. The least mistake in his work disturbed him to the extent that he never committed the same error twice, and his painstaking accuracy reaped its reward when he was awarded a scholarship for his Senior year. Anything out of the ordinary he pronounced weird , although he would never use it in the same breath with Walt Disney characters which he so realistically reproduced in his doodlings . A talented artist, he put his gifts at the service of The Walrus and The Arrow and used his skill to enhance the decorative themes of proms and banquets. In the summer time he divided himself between the Widener Library and Portsmouth, N. H., but during the School year the St. Sebastian cage could always be relied upon to lure him from his Belmont and Cambridge associations. In the realm of sports, Hugh accorded the palm of favoritism to Basketball in which he excelled. Although he won a starting berth as a junior, it was not until this last season that he blossomed forth as a star of the first magnitude. He chose the Boston Garden as the scene of his peak performance and on that court racked up 19 points to pace the Red and Black to an impressive 34-19 win over Immaculate of Revere. In the Spring, the Belmont blond toed the mound now and again and, for some strange reason, batting practice was never too popular when he was serving them up. Tennis also attracted his fancy and he wielded the racquet effectively enough to become a finalist in the Annual School Tournament. Idealist that he is, Hugh has decided to join the Crusader ranks at Holy Cross ro prepare for a journalistic career. That he will be eminently successful and add prestige to St. Sebastian's is the unanimous opinion and fervent wish of all who have treasured his friendship on Nonantum Hill. -I 21 j.- Szsooo A veAP.1s sms MR msntv BUT I wsu.

f-it 4'1- lltiityy '42 6 MASSAUA PAUL MICHAEL CAVANAGH ll ll Senior Debating Society 4 While it took Calvin Coolidge several words to decline a cpresidential nomina- tion, Paul Cavanagh would have met the same situation by a ecisive shake of the head, and without wasting a syllable. For three years the Waban citizen has been a sphinx in our midst, and the number of words he has uttered could be put on a postage stamp. This year, however, he has been sorely tried, for he sat at the Headmaster's right in the refectory and had to expend several monosyllables in the course of a meal. Although he felt no magnetic attraction for the Debating Society, his name appeared on the membership roster when the group formed, and no one in the School had to be told who it was that nominated him. Paradoxically enough, Paul is far from being morose or depressed. Any humor in the classroom strikes a responsive chord in him and he emits either a grin or a chuckle, depending upon the degree of uproariousness reached. At home he more than makes up for his taciturnity at School and sounds off with little or no provocation. By inference, at least, we have gathered that he despises Math because it alone keeps him from a permanent berth on the Honor Roll. Not given to making friends lightly, Cav pals with Dan Griffin and Bob Cochrane, and has a bowing acquaintance with the rest of his schoolmates. An informal sports participant, Paul is passionately devoted to Holy Cross, the Red Sox and the Boston Yanks. His Holy Cross scrap book dates back to the time that he was 8, but recently he has broadened the scope of his interests to the oint where he subscribes to an English newspaper to follow the fortunes of the Olgham soccer team. Vacations at Dennis on the Cape delight him no end and there he indulges his swimming prowess and matches golf strokes with more experienced players. Of late he has added ski-ing to the list of his hobbies and for some time he and Dan Griffin have been bowling with gusto. The fascination which glues him to the pages of Western stories hardly extends to Beau , the family dog, for Cav views the beast with antipathy and, from all apparent indications, the feeling is mutual. Writing comes easily to Paul and at the present time he is of a mind to make journalism his career. That golden silence may well prove to be the mint in which he will coin many a happy phrase to win literary laurels that will make us recall with pride our prep school associations at St. Sebastian's. -I 23 1- CAVANAGH SPEAKS TWO DAYS IN A ROW i 5. . is ' ' ' ' NAI: Qfiwvi lii, EXTRA!
