He's remembered as both very formal, and very accessible. Am forever grateful for the time he saved my bacon.

I graduated in 1958 from St Thomas Aquinas, Flatlands, Brooklyn NY. Bro Armel, CSC, was principal at the time. I shared the below on their Facebook page recently:

Eye in the Sky

Principal Armel, Brothers of Holy Cross, gray haired, at least by the time we left in 1958. Hair parted down the middle with a small wave on either side of his forehead, deliberate in speech and movement. When at St Thomas we moved into the new Boys School, built on the huge vacant lot where we played our baseball and football between Flatbush and Hendrickson, everything was grand spanking new: desks, blackboards, a gymnasium with a rock hard tiled floor and fold out bleachers.

Bro Armel was from the midwest somewhere, and he enjoyed telling our parents at a meeting his story of life out west and his humble beginnings. Seems his family was not blessed with an income that allowed, during the Great Depression, purchase of too many many store bought items. So, when he needed a uniform of shorts and tee shirt to play basketball in school, his mother made do with her sewing machine and a burlap bag she found out in the shed. All went well at the game till it was his time to shoot a foul shot. He approached the foul line, bounced the ball while eyeing the basket, as he bent forward at the waist laughter broke out among the crowd when they saw written across his bottom: "Pillsbury's Finest". He never mentioned whether he made the basket but our parents loved the story and the story teller.

Also, we were introduced to Big Brother in the form of a small painted metal grill up the right side corner of the classroom, from which the voice of Bro Armel occasionally ushered ominously forth. If you were summoned to the principal's office via intercom, one could sometimes glean from his tone of voice if trouble was brewing. It usually was. But here's the master stroke Bro Armel used. A few times, just enough to convince us, he would say "You think I can't see you now Raftery, try that again and you'll be sitting outside my office, don't doubt me." Could he see us? Some thought yes, others said no: Tommy Raftery, or Eddie Mullins were a sure bet along with one or two others, to be up to something at any given moment.

And yet ... Pillsbury's Finest kept us guessing.


( Bro Armel, nee Glenn F. Latterell)
