ACADEMY ADMINISTRATION Reverend John R. Roach Director No one will leave such a lasting impression on us after we leave St. Thomas as will Father Roach. His leadership and high ideals have impressed upon us the qualities most essential to the Christian man of the Twentieth Century. His relationship with us has been characterized more by a fatherly interest in our personal welfare than thot of a faculty member and disciplinarian. Colonel George E. Langeland Principal In these days of strife, an educator's task is not an easy one. In addition to giving us the knowledge required of us in today's world, he must give us the wisdom to use it properly. Colonel Langeland's sincere interest in our welfare has fostered a deep affection for him in all of our hearts. No problem is too great or too small for him to handle personally. F09 »w»lv
