I don't know where Bates College is. It's not in California. If he was a freshman in 1954, he'd be born 1936, give or take a year.
Building off of Bill's work, there's a John Manteiga b. 24 June 1936 and died 22 July 2005 in North Attleboro, Massachusetts. His father was Antonio S. Manteiga and his mother was Mary Cabral.
