Senior Class Oiisiory FIRST Vl’iAR: W ' c appeared at Columbia with the not unusual distinction of having been one of the largest classes in her history. Kies and Hanismith immediately drew attention in the minor intramural Grasshopper-Bumhlehee clash, resulting in aspirations to make the . cademy s(|uad. Dan McCauley established his reputation as a reputable jigger; while ‘Russ Lawson made his dehut in the College Minstrels. The hon(»r roll was composed chiefly of Cullen. Kearns. Kerper. Kies. McXally. Peryon, and W’illging. A small beginning, hut we slmwed promise. S1%C()XI) ’1L R: Three rough years to go! Soukup represented us in football, Shee¬ han and McKenna in track. Tornai. McKenna, and Sheehan .showed merit in intramural basket¬ ball. Our Literati, unable longer to suppress themselves, cropped forth with cla.ss papers: the 2. Progress, 2B Buzz, and the 2 Sees. Rough sledding scholastically, only four making the homu roll consistently. Kearns, Kerper. Kolck. (yXeill. Palen. and W illging upheld our liter¬ ary honor by competing successfully fi»r positions on the Cee-Ay staflf. s Sophomores, we shyly hid our light beneath a bushel, lacking boldness to vie with the mighty upper-clas.smeii for honors, scholastic or otherwise. ' J ' HIRD VILAR: The worst behind us! In the newly formed History Club our class was well represented, the work of Collins. Kvans, Kolck, and O’Xeill being notable. Konkoly, McXally and Ziepprecht. in football, and Sheehan and Tornai in basketball, maintained the reputation of the class in .sports. Palen consistently wielded the sceptre over all things hu¬ morous, or supposedly so. Crowley. Ivvans, (Y Xeill. and Xewhouse gave singular performances in the History Club ])lay ‘Secret Service’. In the finals of the Flocutionary Contest were en¬ tered Kermit ludherg and Paul O’Xeill. Tradition received a .setback when the latter was awarded the gold medal in declamation, and John h ' vans, first prize in the essay contest. For the coming year, K »lck and O’Xeill were cho.sen editors in chief of the Cee-Ay, preciously strengthened by the membership of h ' .vans; Sheehan and Hamsmith were voted the captaincy in haskethall and football re.spectively. . nd, lest we forget, new impetus was given to the Choral Cluh that year, composed in the majority by members of our class, including the following of tw«» years standing: Baldus, Crowley. Giegerich, Kerper, Lawson, Leich, Martin, McCauley, -McXally, Sheehan, Tre.xler, and ’an den Dorpe. FOURTH V1L ' R: In our glory! Kies, Soukup. Ziepprecht. Konkoly, Sheehan, Xicholson, McXally, Tornai. Brede, Collins. Hamsmith, and Baldus sported football letters, the latter two receiving all-state mention. (. nd the last shall he first!) Ba.skethall brings l)lea.sant memories of the Loyola Tournament and the best-coached team there, with special l)raise for Sheehan. McKenna, Tornai. Letko, and Quinlan. In track. Baldus, Kerper. O’Xeill, McKenna, Fitzpatrick. Collins, Ziepprecht, Lawson. Martin, Kies, Ca.sey. and Wieland .showed possibilities of making the team. The names of Letko and Baldus were added to the Fourth-Ac. honor roll. This year was notable for the foundation of an Academy Dramatic Cluh. with l%vans i)resident and W ' illging secretary. number of one act plays were prcKluced. including ‘J ' he Pot-Boiler’, acted by Evans, Palen, Kearns. Sheehan, McKenna. W’illging. and Hamsmith: ‘lie’, hy Turnis, Crowley. Peryon and others; ‘W’hen the Clock Strikes’, with Jungels, Mc¬ Xally, Bergener. McKenna and W’illging. Let’s .see—we’ve forgotten something—Oh, yes! The Meadowhrook Murder Ca.se, a thrilling, grue.some. tragedy, with seventeen (17) deaths, written hy Joseph David Belasco Palen. Further plays were produced later in the .season. In the contests Kermit h’.ulherg won the silver medal for his story, and W’illging. first. Palen, second, and X’aughn, third, prize in the essay. ( Ft urth-Acs took the first ten places!) Seniors also took five places out »f six in elocution. (hXans, ludherg, (Ker.), Crowley, Baldus and Shee¬ han.) And so to bed. M. HKIUIKRT W ll.M ' .INC.
