SPIROS SEGALAS Entered 1943 Princeton-Student Council, Sec'y '51, Tau Delta Sigma, Treas., Yearbook '51, Trinity Times '50, '51, Glee Club '49, V. Football '48, Varsity '50, Capt. '51, V. Basketball '48, Varsity '50, '51, Varsity Track '49, '50, '51. Choo-choo Sig, the galloping Greek terror will long be remem- bered for his athletic abilities. Sig blushes through it all, however, to be one of the best liked boys in school. When not arguing with Heller or dodging sisters who come to watch him play basketball, he can be found standing on his hands. WILLIAM LEE SIMMONDS Entered 1944 Princeton-Cum Laude, Yearbook '50, '51, Trinity Times '50, 51, Varsity Cross Country Mgr. '51, Varsity Track Mgr. '51, Early in the morning you can find Bill, in his post as student librarian, waylaying fellow students trying to sneak by with books long overdue. Although quiet, he is an ardent worker, consistently turning in high grades besides lending his steadying influence to the school's publications. CHARLES PETER SMITH Entered 1941 Trinity-Glee Club '50, '51, Varsity Soccer '48, '49, '50, '51, V. Baseball '49, '50, Pete can either be found sitting in the back row munching on a sandwich or brushing up Mr. Bruner-Smith on his grammar rules. A mainstay of the soccer team, his versatility in the music Held is looked upon with awe by his jealous classmates, for whether it be piano, drum, or sax he holds his own with the best of them. 20

RAYMOND MICHAEL RUSSO Entered 1947 Brown-J. V. Baseball '48, '49, Ray is a man who gives the impression of having been around much, but with no fanfare. He has a certain dignity of manner, a confidence that comes from we know not where, but it is suspected that this quiet man has secrets. Ray is Valicenti's favorite audience for his comedy and probably writes most of his scripts. GEYSA SARKANY, JR. Entered 1947 Columbia-Yearbook ,50g Glee Club '48, 719, '50, '51, Rifle '48, '-49. Gey is contantly amazing us with his apparently inexhaustible supply of knowledge, well versed on everything from Shakespeare to Einstein, this lad exudes culture. When not masterfully changing the subject in English class, he can be found teaching Mr. Maier German. Although we have not seen him in action, we hear that he is a mean man on the parallel bars. ROY GUNTHER SCHOCK Entered 1950 Miami-Varsity Football ,513 Varsity Wrestling ,515 Varsity Track ,51. Noted for his ability to lift either Mac Millan or a 225 pound weight with equal ease, Roy is easily the class superman. He pos- sesses a fine mind, if stubborn, and astounds us regularly with discourses on infinity and the origin of the Cro-Magnon man. In his short stay at Trinity he has distinguished himself on the football Held and in the classroom. 19

RICHARD RONALD TAYLOR Entered 1946 Colgate-Student Council '50, Treas. '51, Yearbook '51, Trinity Times '51, Varsity Cross Country '51, Varsity Wrestling '47, '48, '49, '50, Capt. '51, Varsity Track '50, '51. Whether it be telling tales of happy hours spent on Long Island Sound, tying nautical knots in the cords of window shades, or beating up everyone in sight in the wrestling room, Dick is in his glory. His five Varsity letters in wrestling prove his adeptness in that sport, he has been a star of the team ever since his lower school days. DUDLEY BRECKENRIDGE THOMAS Entered 1947 Washington and Lee-Yearbook '51, Trinity Times '50, '51, Glee Club '49, Varsity Soccer '48, V. Baseball Mgr. '48, Descending from a long line of Southern gentlemen fso he tells usj, Dud can usually be found delivering a speech on a topic relating to the Civil War. An amiable personality and long blond hair have made Trinity's Dixie-crat a busy man on weekends when he entertains many a rose-lipped maiden. RICHARD EDWARD VALICENTI Entered 1947 Columbia-Trinity Times '51, Chess '50, '51, Glee Club '50, '51, Varsity Tennis Mgr. 151. Volatile Val has kept us laughing since his arrival at Trinity. He does everything with equal zest, a trait that has made him the star of the lunch hour entertainment group, as well as the terror of the intramural leagues. His main talent seems to be his ability to get along flawlessly with everyone. 21
