Ted is perhaps the best-dressed senior and no one at U.S.F. remembers Ted wearing anything but a suit except on the day of the Frosh- Soph brawl. However, he is more than a clothes model and is one of the important tycoons of the class. MLouie is the President of the Student Body and in his oflicial capacity has to attend every function ofthe college. Because of his compulsory presence at these debates, lectures, dances, etc., Htouier has been bored more frequently than anyone except his predecessor in ofhce. He was a flashy quarterback for four years and played at least half of every basketball game on Wally Cameron's team. Howard is a short, husky, smiling football player who made the trek from McClymonds High School in Oakland to U.S.F. He always played a flashy half-back position and should have been in the game more of the time. It was Olie who intercepted a St. Marys pass in 1932 in the closing minutes of the game, thereby paving the way for a U.S.F. touchdown. 32

SENIOR! ,gj , ALEXANDER IPUCCINELLI WILLIAM F. QUIRIE ELBERT V- OUUCI 'gPootch,' is Nevada's ambassador to the U.S.F. Debate Seminar Class. His diplomatic dignity was shattered by attacks upon his sovereign state during a debate on uniform divorce laws, and he burst forth with a fervid explanation of the Reno temperament. He has a methodical Way of criticizing an idea or a speech, taking up the salient points one by one. Bill Quirie used to be a football player in high school, but when he reached college he quit the game and became newsboy for the Foghornf, After packing bundles of papers from class to class on Thursdays, Bill finally reached the coveted position of circulation manager. In his august post, he delegates the actual handling of the issues to a lowly Frosh. Elbert was nominated by a certain Foghorn columnist as one of the live Wild Hares of U.S.F. because he has been consistently present at all gatherings of riotous disorder. Elbert has fought his Way to the microphone at the St. Francis, and often has his voice roared out over Powell Street. Beneath his habitually insouciant pan, Elbert is a philosopher, an athlete, and 3 member of the Letter Societyfl 34
