16THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS
M ANY of us, the members of the class of '41, will never again attend school. With these, who are obliged to take their places in the world at once, formal education will be supplemented at once by that training which only experience can bring. Perhaps these are in reality more fortunate than their classmates who can continue their studies, in that they are getting a head start in life. A larger group will leave all close contact with the teachers of their religion. Some, more wise or prosperous than the rest, will be able to continue their studies in a Catholic university or college. But, whatever our ambitions, wherever we may work or study, June 22, Graduation Day, will be an important turning point in our lives.
Therefore, since we are setting out in life, it seems proper that we should have some guiding philosophy, some rule for living, which will keep us on the right track toward heaven. Such a thought is well expressed in the following lines by Thomas Campion:
THE MAN OF LIFE UPRIGHT The man of life upright.
Whose guiltless heart is free From all dishonest deeds,
Or thoughts of vanity;
The man whose silent days In harmless joys are spent,
Whom hopes can not delude,
Nor sorrow discontent;
That man needs neither towers Nor armor for defense,
Nor secret vaults to fly From thunder’s violence.
If we wish to be happy in this life, doesn't it seem reasonable that we should first know what happiness is? After deep thought on the subject, we will probably discover that happiness is merely a state of mind. It is that feeling of satisfaction that comes from the knowledge of a job well done. Then, by performing our duties to the best of our ability, we can find happiness in the future.
After we have lived our lives, the index by which our success is really judged is neither the size of the estate which we have left, nor the price of our memorial stone, but rather the degree to which we have followed out the command "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself for the love of God”. After our years of valuable Catholic training, we are excellently equipped to do this.
As we take our stations in life, whether they be as employers or workers or traders, let us remember that we are first Catholics, then business men. In other words. Justice and Charity, rather than greed, must govern all of our transactions. If we remember always our years of training at Aquinas, we will always be true Christian gentlemen.
18"The proper and immediate end oj Christian education is to cooperate with divine grace in forming the true and perfect Christian, that is, to form Christ Himself in those regenerated by baptism . . .
"Christian education takes in the whole aggregate of human life, physical and spiritual, intellectual and moral, individual, domestic, and social, not with a view of reducing it in any way, but in order to elevate, regulate and perfect it, in accordance with the example and teaching of Christ.”
His Holiness Pope Pius XI

OF 1941TEN YEARS AGO
I’ve wandered back to Dewey, John; I’ve sat within the rooms Where you and I learned French and math—my, how the memory looms I've seen in thought all those old friends, classmates we used to know Members of the faculty of some ten years ago.
I've been to all the Mission Days and "pep" assemblies, too;
I've been to all the plays since then, (I think they were too few).
I've danced at all the dances where each dancer was a beau;
I've not missed a football game of some ten years ago.
I've taken all my quarterlies, and "crammed" beyond control;
And though not the "S. T. C." I’ve reached the honor roll.
To celebrate my victory, I took her to a show;
Twas Dot, Bette, or Mary of some ten years ago.
But now those days are past and gone—for us success is nigh—
And yet, at times, I have regrets for all those days gone by;
I think that if I had the chance to live my life again,
I'd start it at Aquinas, where young boys are changed to men.FRUITS OF INJUSTICE
. A.1 the breaking of a cold, grey dawn, a quiet valley awoke to find an enemy swiftly approaching through a tortuous maze of yawning gullies in the hills above.
bar up in the mountains a huge glacial lake was at that moment spewing forth its glassy contents into the canyon below. This, the source of power and water for the entire valley, was separated from it by a quarter mile of flat table rock terminating in a lofty precipice—from thence a sheer drop of more than a thousand feet. By a whim of nature, a gaping fissure rent in this barrier loosed the entire lake on the unsuspecting valley beneath. The resulting torrent sounded the death-knell for the flourishing lowlands.
Panic stricken as the ruthless surge poured down, the valley folk made heroic but futile efforts to stem the swirling tide. Following the first onslaught came a second and more devasting influx of the turbulent flood. A bellowing surge of the raging curse swept down with a sucking roar, hungrily devouring the spoils that lay in its path. The fruits of years, yes, of generations, were obliterated at a single stroke. Racing onward, the debris-laden flood choked and gurgled at the base of the municipality's principal building. As the relentless tide rose higher, gnashing at the vitals of the structure, tremors racked it from pavement to spire. Suddenly, with a hollow roar the foundations caved and the entire edifice slumped into a cascade of masonry. Soon after, a second "pride of the metropolis" met a similar fate.
But this gruesome spectacle was enriched by a higher type of prey. The townsfolk had made no provision for such a situation as this. Nevertheless, many families, forced to vacate the premises, resorted to a motley array of obviously home-made contrivances —flat-bottomed skiffs, flimsy rafts, in fact, anything with buoyancy to support one or more persons. With a mocking sweep of a welI-directed wave these puny craft with their wretched cargo were gathered into the maw of the foaming race.
The extremities of the flood were stealthily creeping up the gentle slope to the manor house at the far end of the valley. The estate reechoed with the clamor of the frenzied populace a warning to the squire to quit his domain while there remained an avenue of escape. Heedless of their cries, he ordered all openings on the lower floor barricaded and securely caulked against the rising waters. Slowly the murky flood inched higher and higher. The knoll upon which the manor was situated soon became an island
58
THE
ARETEsurrounded by the vast, seething expanse of coffee colored current. At frequent intervals, this watery plain was specked with ever disappearing roof tops, bobbing logs dotted with inhabitants of the unfortunate lowlands. One by one, these, too, met their doom.
But, what of the manor? As the shore line slowly receded, alarm turned into panic. Relenting in his hasty decision to remain at all costs, the lord made preparations to evacuate the remainder of his family. At the sight of the others' broken rafts and shattered boats, mute evidence of the treacherous current, he realized the futility of any such attempt. The only course was to return to the comparative safety of the manor and hope for the best. Within a short time the veranda was no more. A rending crash followed by an ominous gurgling told of the havoc being wrought beneath. As the tide rose one could hear the churning of the turbulent flood. Heirlooms of generations were sacrificed to this greedy terror. Years of tyranny were taking their toll.
Shortly, the waves were gently lapping about the second floor. The squire, seeing his possessions being wrenched from his grasp, though powerless to intervene, resolved to defeat this vicious demon. Upon retreating to the topmost floor, after having sealed
hthe entrance against the hungry waters, he mounted to the turret. The proud figure gazed with anguish upon his inundated estate; rumors and tremblings from below were not just the complaints of the straining timbers. No, this was the swan song of the manor and of the tyranny embodied therein. As the supporting columns were undermined the structure rapidly disintegrated.
A sudden lurch threw the household from its feet. The building was being rent asunder like a stranded vessel. Unable to withstand the strain, the overtaxed mind snapped. The man was transformed into a fiend. Locking his family in the crumbling sector he collected a huge quantity of combustibles. Descending to the partially flooded lower floor, he proceeded to fire the exposed partitions. The yet dry timbers readily ignited while the once haughty aristocrat looked down fascinated.
Driven back by thick billowing clouds of acrid smoke, the master sought refuge in the tower. Beyond the reach of the searing flames and choking fumes, he chattered and whimpered over his impending doom. Years of labor and cunning had come to naught. A swift and terrible justice was sweeping down upon him.
Above the roar and crackle of the flames were heard his agonizing shrieks of death. The piercing screams rang out into the night. Then, without warning, the flaming ruins toppled. Such an eery sight—the blazing sections drifting away, being gradually swallowed up in the enveloping gloom.

FIRST NIGHTER REVIEW
GOLDEN GLOVE CAFE
Last night the dream of chemist Burdette Shaw came true as he opened Rochester's newest night club in fabulous fashion. As the festivities began the strains of that nationally known swing band could be heard; yes, it was Max McCarthy with his ace trumpet player, Tony Mulligan.
Following an organ recital by Sally Cordaro, speeches were in order for some time. Prominent Rochesterians such as: David McNally, Bausch and Lomb Business administrator: Howard McGee, author of hunting tales; New York State's chief history teacher, Charles Summers; John Napier, liquor sales magnate; Neil Culhane, business leader; and Rochester’s most eminent physician, Sam Pozzanghera; offered the proprietor their congratulations.
After the comedy team of E. O’Neil and C. Magee had entertained the visitors for some time, guest conductor A1 Tevels took over the baton for three pieces.
Among those present at the first night were: Robert (Moose) Landry, football coach at the U. of R.; Bernard Tofany, treasurer of a local bank; Major Frederick O’Connor, of the U. S. Army; engineer for American Bridge works, Carl Boden-steiner; Robert Bossert, Curtis aeronautical engineer; steel man, Robert Schmerbeck; Harold Fromm, designer of the new Fromm pursuit; staff artist of the Buffalo Times, James Mellen; William Biracree, state regents English and Math advisor; John Curtin, insurance genius; chief engineer Boeing Aircraft, Louis Figenscher; test pilot, Dick Hoeffel; Robert Flick, "W H A M" radio engineer; statesman and orator, John R. Williams; Bernard Johnson, big league baseball player; insurance manager, George Bopp; Richard Keenan, sports manager of the New York Tribune; retail clothing store-magnate, John Morton; Howard Kunzer, dairy leader; and John Mott, noted leader in the aeronautical field here in America.
A unique feature of the opening of this club was the fact that nearly all of the notables present were graduates of Rochester’s finest educational institution, Aquinas Institute. Every one of these prominent men was in his last year at the school eighteen years ago, their importance today in American life attests to the ability of the senior class of 1941 and of the men and women at Aquinas who sped them off into the fast moving world of today.

TODAY Aquinas Institute—the distinctive Catholic High School.THE MARCH OF THE MISSIONS, 1940- 1941
n
V ueen of THE Aposti.es, pray for the Missions, that all may know the Savior of the world.”
With this prayer, let us look back upon a most successful year for the Mission Crusade of Aquinas. This was due to the untiring efforts and direction of Father H. Haffey, the man responsible for the phenomenal success of the Mission Crusade, this year, and for the past three years. Under Father Haffey's guidance the Unit not only worked hard to accumulate more than S3,325 in 1940 alone for the cause of the Missions, but also inspired more than 500,000 prayers per month for the conversion of pagan peoples.
Probably the greatest single prayer of the year was the time devoted to the discussion of the Missions and the Church by members of the Round Tables. Active leaders in this movement included Anthony Pizzarelli, Joseph Canepa, William Cousins, Emmett Gauhn, and Paul Ryan. Nazareth, Mercy and Sacred Heart also held discussion meetings, which were often attended by Aquinas members,—as were our Round Table meetings visited by their representatives. In this way the Round Tables have expanded greatly and gained a strong foothold as a most essential activity of the Aquinas Mission Crusade.
Another school-wide spiritual endeavor was the records kept of the prayers and acts of mortification of the student body. For this purpose prayer-leaflets were distributed to each student upon which he could mark his sacrifices. Examination of these brings out the interest of the school in the Missions, for in January alone, 3,054 Masses were heard; 1,792 Rosaries were said; 7,003 visits were made; 515,226 short prayers were said and 17,948 hours of study were offered for the progress of the Missions— truly a great sacrifice for a great cause.
The ''Aquinader” also enjoyed an eventful year, for a number of copies were exchanged with other schools, increasing its circulation greatly. Gerard Hurley was Editor-in-Chief, with Justin Cappon, Paul Ryan, Harry Shannon, Donald Christian, and William Cousins lending very able assistance. Each issue was alive with every bit of news including a dash of humor by Emmett Gauhn, current Mission news, statistics, and other general information.
Big money-maker of the year was the paper drive which netted more than $1200.00 by itself. Success was assured with such leaders as Phil Di Pasquale, Jerry Klem, JackCulhane, Jack Curtin, Jack Cullen, Rocco Tartaglia and many others. Under a new system, these fellows helped most by encouraging the use of garages as depots. They also helped by encouraging conversation of the paper drive by which the whole school became "paper conscious".
Home room activities and contributions were under the leadership of General Secretary, Paul Ryan. Mr. Hart of the office is regarded as one of the Unit's best officers in this and other endeavors. Outstanding councilors were Neil Culhane, Jim Kearney, "Tex" Morehouse, Aime Messe, Bob Connelly, Ray McEneany, and Ken Carroll. Another councilor, "Moose" Landry, was elected Vice-President of the Inter-Unit Conference.
The Mission Mixers under the supervision of Father J. Murphy and Mr. Hasenauer with Dennis Crowley as master of ceremonies, were the most popular with the students. Music was provided by Al Tevels and the Maroon White Swingsters; humor was attempted by Emmet O’Neil and his company of Chuck Magee, Jack Culhane, and Jed Brown; order was maintained by "Moose" Landry, Joe Tierney and their "huskies." One of the Mixers was held at Nazareth and another at Mercy, to swell their Mission funds.
The more pugilistic type of students lent their talents to the support of the annual Mission Bouts. These proved one of the most interesting and thrilling of activities.
Rip" Riley, "Bud" Nally, and Neil Culhane were outstanding promoters. The most outstanding Mission business deal was the selling of Christmas cards which netted more than SI75. Success of this enterprise is owed chiefly to Dick Keenan who also was in charge of the Football Pools. A "Shield" in every room, long a determination, finally became a realization.
But as has been true in the past, the most profitable and enjoyable single day of the year was Mission Day. On this day, the various talents and hobbies of the students were displayed; in addition to the regular Club exhibits, the "Arete", dating from 1918, also found a prominent place in the interest of the visitors. This day was a combination of all the features of a carnival. Three varsity shows under the direction of Father Murphy were presented for indoor entertainment. This splendid indoor entertainment was supplemented by equally fine outdoor activities. These consisted of a band concert, track meets, games of chance, and refreshments.
Naturally all of you are very much interested in the final destination of your contribution. It may be supporting one catechist and two seminarians in Madras, India; it may be supporting Maryknoll priests and a nun in South China and Korea; it may be at the disposal of Bishop Collins of Liberia; it may be helping the Sisters of Saint Joseph's mission in Alabama. Perhaps the Holy Cross Fathers in India, or the Mercy Sisters in Jamaica, where one house is named after our Aquinas, are using it to carry
90
THE
ARETEon their work of salvation. The contribution may be in any one of these and many other places, but wherever it is, it is aiding, through your goodness, in the Christianization of the world.
The C. S. M. C. convention this year will be held in our own city—June 27—30. It is expected to be one of the largest Catholic affairs ever to be held in this city. The outstanding feature will be a Mass celebrated at Red Wing Stadium and attended by numerous notable Bishops and Missionaries. To prepare for this event much committee work is already being done.
So as this Mission Year draws to a close, with due thanks to Father Haffey, our director; to Paul Ryan, General Secretary; to the councilors and workers and to Joe Guzzcta, our generous Mission photographer, we again renew our prayer, "Queen of the Apostles, pray for the Missions, that all may know the Savior of the world".
May this prayer resound, during the entire future, throughout the walls of Aquinas and throughout the widespread walls of the earth itself.
HOME ROOM LEADERS
The home room leaders, following the example of such outstanding crusaders as Leo Skelly, Tony Pizzarelli, Paul Ryan, and Bob Bos-sert, led their respective rooms to new heights in contributions of money and prayers.
AQUINAS INSTITUTETHE ROUND TABLES
The Aquinas Round Tabic Discussion Club, little publicized, meets weekly at the various high schools. Mr. Lavery, the faculty advisor gives the group the benefit of his higher learning. Truly it can be said that this group does much to make the students more mindful of Catholic Action.
THE AQUINADER STAFF
Under the able direction of Gerard T. Hurley, Editor-in-Chief, the Aqui-nader has successfully fulfilled its purpose—to present to the student body that portion of Mission news which pertains to the Aquinas Unit.
THE
ARETEEXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
I OOKING back through the past year, we Aquinas men can be justly proud of the advancements we made due to the zeal of our clubs, their advisors and members. When we stop to consider, most of these clubs are actually a mild continuation of some form of our present day education, for they complement the work of the classroom. In recent years the Aquinas units have so increased that now over half the students belong to some club. Few schools can boast of such a number of clubs with so many varied interests. After all it is the unity which these clubs afford that holds our student body in a common bond. Through these groups a closer relation has been established between the faculty and the students as well as between the students and the topic studied by the club.
For those interested in the classical arts, we have the German, French, Italian and Latin Clubs which give members an insight into the customs and ways of living of the people in the countries which these languages represent.
In the literary field the Press Club develops the journalistic abilities of its members. The Maroon and White affords an opportunity to those interested in newspaper work to obtain press experience.
The intellectuals choose the Catholic Literature Club; the scientifically minded students have the Science Club and the Camera Club has many promising photographers in its midst.
The scholars prefer the Math Club and the Chess Club, while the Stamp Club features recreation for stamp hobbyists.
The Dramatic Club has served the student body well in its yearly productions, which allow many students to exhibit their talents.
The Aviation Club and the Rod and Gun Club have much popularity with the students as they concern themselves with affairs of the present day, both individual and national.
The Bowling Club, under the supervision of Father Hastings, has been an annual favorite; likewise the Mission Unit has equalled its past successes.
Some of the newer groups are the Publicity Bureau, which publicizes the important events of the school year, and the Table Tennis Club.
Thus we are proud to have within our embrace sources of enjoyment pleasing to all. They were satisfactory to all students since the boys found in them an outlet for their excess energies which they sought. Therefore they ought to see to it that Aquinas remains on top for having a fine student organization.
THE
ARETEMUSICMUSIC AT AQUINAS
. xGAIN during this past season of 19-10-41, the Aquinas Music Department has shone forth with its stellar achievements. Under the most capable guidance of Mr. Raymond J. Hasenauer, the Aquinas Senior Band, and the Senior, Junior, and Sophomore Glee Clubs, (the Aquinas Junior Band), together with the Maroon and White Swingsters, have progressed rapidly to attain enviable prominence in the field of music.
The credit for this is due to the arduous and diligent work of Mr. Hasenauer who was kept busy continually directing all musical functions at Aquinas. Mr. Hasen-auer's task consisted of handling two bands, three individual Glee Clubs and the Maroon and White Swing-stc-rs. In addition to this, he saw to it that all those students who desired musical instruction were well provided for, both by class lessons and sectional rehearsals. Indeed, Mr. Hasenauer found few spare moments in his work at Aquinas during the school year, '40-'41.
We of the musical department wish to extend our most sincere gratitude to Mr. Hasenauer for all he has done in our behalf. We will always remember him as a true friend and a real sport.
Too, we of the music department wish to thank the school for the fine musical opportunities offered us during our stay at Aquinas. We look back with pride on the accomplishments attained by the instrumental and vocal organizations. The fine music we have studied and played will remain with us as an inspiration always to enjoy the best in good music. It is something we can carry with us for the rest of our lives. Without this opportunity in our music at Aquinas, we feel we would have missed a great portion of our school life. The habits of working together in preparation of a fine concert of music have given us ability to cooperate and work as a unit with each individual adding his important part to the whole. In short, we have indeed profited greatly by our musical experiences.

101PHASES OF AQUINAS MUSIC
T.e Symphonic Band, better known as the Aquinas Senior Band, mastered magnificently such difficult selections as the "King Orry Rhapsody" and "Universal Judgment". Such success in these and in other numbers was achieved only through diligent effort on the part of each and every member of the band and through that of our director, Mr. Hasenauer. The ability of this band was aptly demonstrated at the concerts of March 6, and of May 16. This year for the first time, senior members of the band were awarded just recognition in view of their painstaking determination. Coat-sweaters with emblem and letter were presented to them as well as to athletes. The plan met with such thorough approval that it will be continued in future years.
Increased Glee Club enrollment necessitated the forming of three such groups by Mr. Hasenauer,—the Senior, the Junior, and the Sophomore Glee Clubs. On March 18, these clubs presented their own concert which was acclaimed a great success.
The Junior Band also proved exceptional, raising great hopes for future Senior Bands. Its less experienced members performed remarkably well at the band concerts, displaying the fine organizing ability of Mr. Hasenauer.
Success in the forming of a good, praiseworthy dance band at Aquinas was realized this year when the Maroon and White Swingsters made their grand official appearance. Not only did this rhythmic bunch of swingaroos provide the hot licks at both the Football Victory Dance and the Junior Prom, but they also gave a cheery atmosphere to the Pep Assemblies, and the Mission Mixers of Aquinas, Mercy, and Nazareth. To its members a lasting word of tribute is due in view of the long, hard struggle for survival and popularity.
The School Year 1940-41 has been a banner year for our Aquinas Marching Band. For the first time, the band accompanied our football team to an out-of-town football game.
The game was played at Auburn against Holy Family High of that city. The band, along with the team and hundreds of students and their friends, made the trip on a special train. Before and during the game, the band favored the spectators with some snappy marches. At half time, the band, resplendent in its maroon and white uniforms, performed amid the cheers of the fans. The playing of "March on Aquinas" while-spelling "A-Q-U-I-N-A-S” and forming the letters "H. F.” pleased the entire crowd. Our drum major and twirlers also added class to the performance.
The band also went to Canandaigua for the Apple Blossom Festival. After performing admirably during a drizzling rain, everyone commented on both the marching form and playing ability of the band. Again the band "strutted its stuff" on Memorial Day in the annual parade. Here also, Mr. Hasenauer and the band were praised for their splendid work.
We hope that this policy of accompanying the team to out-of-town games will continue, and that the Aquinas Marching Band of 1940-41 has established the foundation of a custom which in future years will be an Aquinas tradition.

THE
ARETEDRAMATICSBROTHER ORCHID
PIRST play of the season receives "formidable ovation" for its unusual characterizations and marked deviation.
"Brother Orchid", adapted from a short story of the same name by Richard Connell, was dramatized by Leo Brady, while still a sophomore at Catholic University. The well depicted scenes were apportioned between the pious, conscientious life of the monastery and that of the crooked, beguiling life of gangland. The play in itself was very amusing and held its audience at attention from the beginning to the end.
Rivalry for the supremacy of certain rackets in the underworld was one of the chief plots of the play. This certain topic of opposition instigated a few other themes which were requisite for the scheme of the play. Little John Sarto, the well known and feared figure in a big city, while attempting to become leader in certain crooked enterprises, was shot by a rival gang, headed by the Gimp. Almost all the rest of the play was portrayed in a Florentine monastery, where Little John was found wounded and restored to health by the monks. In a very melodramatic ending. Little John is shot while attempting to abate the Gimp, who was meddling with the monastery's income for his own voracious craving of easy money.
The main and most interesting character. Little John Sarto, so nobly portrayed by William Cousins, seemed to be a person of inconstant temperament. This phase of Little John's character seemed to imbibe the more entertaining components of the play. In the beginning of the play. Little John was depicted as a brash, choleric thug, prone to turbulent fits of anger at the least little bit of meddling in his dishonest plans. He then became connected with the sedate inviolable life of the monastery. Little John's whole perspective on life was changed. The sort of peacefulness and serenity appealed to him. The whole mode of living fitted in with his sudden thirst for the common virtuous proceeding of life. The world at this point seemed to him to be a place in which to help the weak and the needy, and also a place to be lived in without being molested by any unsatisfied individuals. This change in Little John's desires and character really held the interest of the audience to a greater degree.

106THE NEW ERA
- .T this time in our dramatic history we would like to pause. During our last year here at Aquinas, another tradition has been shattered. Therefore, we wish to point out just how we have inaugurated another new "Era" in Aquinas history.
In past years, many plays have been presented on our stage. The characters of these have been portrayed by an entire "male" cast. Even the female parts were taken by our masculine Romeos. This is to be noticed in the review of the school play, "Brother Orchid”, found on the preceding pages.
In the Senior Play, "The Poor Nut", there appears something which will strike a responsive chord. In the "dramatis personae", there are to be found the names of girls who took part in the production. For the first time, outside talent has been imported for an Aquinas dramatic undertaking.
This note may have cast a dark outlook upon the situation, but indeed, the result was quite the reverse. The presence of girls on the stage created an atmosphere only possible by the actual appearance of real-life feminine characters. The play was a great success, partly because of the ability of the Aquinas students who took part, and due also to the talent of the girls "borrowed” from Mercy.
Since this step has been taken for the betterment of the dramatic activities, there is no doubt that this addition will be continued in future presentations.
NOW! Turn the page and there this new era will begin. Its success depends on the future. We, the class of '41 offer it to the succeeding years; it is theirs to accept or reject.
AQUINAS INSTITUTESENIORS SUCCESSFULLY PRESENT "THE POOR NUT"
d)N the evening of February IS, 1941, the curtain on the Aquinas stage rose on the outstanding dramatic endeavor of the year, the Senior Play, "The Poor Nut". In all respects it was judged a howling success as the audience, overflowing into the aisles on the second night, attested.
In the presentation of this play, the Senior Class broke a long standing precedent of the Aquinas stage. For the first time girls enacted parts in an Aquinas play. Quite an unexpected event was the exceptional acting of our own Joe Fraver in the role of "John Miller."
The story of the play concerned the amorous adventures of John Miller, a student at Ohio State University. Having become infatuated with Julia Winters, a beauty contest winner from rival Wisconsin University, he wrote her some letters of a romantic nature. When Julia suddenly arrived in Columbus with the Wisconsin track team, of which her fiance, "Spike" Hoyt, was Captain, she upset everyone including John, "Spike", and her friend, Margerie Blake—who is secretly in love with John—by breaking the engagement and chasing Miller.
John, having exhibited a phenomenal, but heretofore unknown, ability as a runner, is drafted by Coach Jackson and Captain "Wallie” Pierce of the Ohio State team to run in the big track meet with Wisconsin. "Spike", seeing in John the cause of all his trouble with Julia, threatens to "spike" him if he runs in the race on the morrow.
In the nerve-racking atmosphere of the rubbing room, John declares that he must win for Julia. Margerie, wishing only to see him happy, agrees with him. As he falls suddenly into a spell of moodiness she wakes him up with a drink of rubbing alcohol and a kiss. Needless to say John wins the race through the alcoholic and osculatory powers of Margerie.
Later that night, in the privacy of a fraternity dance, Professor Deming, a thoughtful member of the Ohio State faculty, knowing that John is doing the wrong thing in becoming engaged to Julia, precipitates a romance between John and Margerie. Suddenly Julia throws a bombshell into the proceedings by stating that she has arranged a wedding for that evening.
John, seeing that he is really in love with Margerie, puts his foot down and refuses to go through with the wedding. "Spike”, non plused by the turn in events, picks a fight with John which is broken up by Pierce, "Hub” Smith and "Magpie" Welch, other students. In an uproarious final scene, John wins Margerie and "Spike” gets Julia back.
To Mr. Dolan, the Director, all the praise given is not enough. Through long hours of rehearsal he carefully shaped the course of the play so that on opening night the cast presented to the audience a perfectly planned and enacted comedy. Repeating the former success of "The Poor Nut" was a task for which we offer to Mr. Dolan our heartfelt thanks.

Though opposed at first by some elements in the school the move proved interesting, but precipitated a crisis when some Seniors presented a petition stating that they did not want girls in the play. The critics of the action were set on their heels by the stellar performances of the Misses Betty Burns and Madge Vaughn, both of Mercy High, who played the roles of "Margerie” and "Julia" respectively. Both these girls, who had major roles, gave their spare time willingly to make the play a success. Minor characters were portrayed by Rita Keogh and Dolores Meyers of Nazareth Academy, and Jean Hamilton of Mercy.

The bus crept slowly up Dewey Avenue and the anxious Senior standing next to

"Can't you go any faster," he begged.
"Sure, I can," replied the driver, "but I'm not allowed to leave the bus."
. . . STRANGE AMERICA . . .
An Irish immigrant was being shown through an army camp by a soldier guide. At six-thirty a cannon report was heard.
"What's that” asked the Irishman.
"Sundown", replied the soldier.

Howie Kunzer walked up to one of the sweet young things lining the wall at the Senior Ball, bowed low and asked:

MEMO TO MABEL
The birds are a’ chirpin' and the buds are a’ popptn’,
But naught can be heard but Mabel’s loud knockin’;
The wind, a soft zephyr, is swishin' and sighin',
But Mabel, she's did, she’s stopped even tryin'.
The breath of spring to me gently whispers,
Of pansies and love and casting rod blisters;
But, oh sad day, far above spring’s song soars,
The cough of my Mabel as she sputters and roars.
The earth has been washed and rinsed of its dirt,
By the rains of God and the hose of Joe Twerp;
But Mabel, how dirty her shivering hood hangs,
Like a hillbilly gal with dirty blond bangs.
Yes, this is the time when brooks babble sweet.
When you sit out a dance on a garden seat:
But not for us, my starry-eyed love,
'Cause Mabel’s the gal I'll be thinkin' of.
Ah, many a twist the path of life takes,
And many's the man who’s borne its bad breaks.
But where on earth has had ever a man To put up with my Mabel—my rattlin' tin can!

THE
ARETEESCAPE FROM PRECEDENCE
V V E'RE different! Undoubtedly the senior class of '41 will pass in the future as one of the most unique in manner. To substantiate this statement may we present the following facts.
Shattering all traditions, we elected, not one, but two, class presidents, in the Spring of our junior year.
After a poll of the students the Maroon and White" assumed a new form—a five column, four page spread.
7 radition was again broken when our football team left town to invade Detroit and Auburn.
Too, the basketball squad, by completing the most successful season on record— winning fifteen out of sixteen games—paid tribute to Mort Leary's coaching abilities.
Uncle Sam got in his claim when he lured "Hank” Conte from our midst into the National Guard.
This year we came as close as we ever will to co-education when for the first time, girls took part in our Senior Play, "The Poor Nut.” This innovation added the necessary color and touch that the Aquinas "ferns" couldn't produce.
A special honor is attached to our class—we are the first to complete four years under the guidance of the Basilian Fathers. For the first time the faculty and we, as freshmen, had something in common—we were both entering the school for the first time.
During our final year a new activity was undertaken under Father Haffey's leadership; a Senior Debating Club was formed and entered into interscholastic competition. It is the desire of the class of '41 that this undertaking will become an annual event.
One of the more lasting changes of our time was the elimination of the "Dewey Clippers" which gave way to the streamline buses.
A change which brought a smirk to the countenance of every Aquinas gentleman was that for the first time students were permitted to use the center walk at dismissals.
However, an event which merits special attention was the bestowing on the Most Blessed Virgin, the title of "Queen of Aquinas", during a special assembly sponsored by the Mission Unit.
Now, to part in friendship, may we say, "Hello".

I JlAROLD was about eighteen years old and in his last year at an exclusive boys' high school. Our hero was a handsome lad who took part in all sorts of activities at school and still maintained a high scholastic record. He lived with his parents in one of the city's more exclusive suburbs. Our story will take in a Friday night in Harold's life.
When he returned home from school on this particular Friday night Harold, contrary to his usual procedure, went up to his room without saying a word to his parents. His mother noticed this but left the matter unmentioned for fear of upsetting him.
No one saw Harold until supper time. Then he slipped into the room and sat down at the table, neither looking at nor speaking to anyone. After a few vain attempts to start a conversation, Mr. and Mrs. Harrison, Harold's parents, gave up and finished the meal in silence. Mr. Harrison especially wondered at Harold's silence since Friday was usually a red letter day for his son.
As soon as supper was over, Harold excused himself and returned to his spacious bedroom. The room was furnished with twin beds, a mahogany desk, a large bureau to match the beds, a studio couch and a large chair.
Tonight Harold's beautiful radio held no attraction for him. He proceeded to the big chair in front of the window. As he sat there staring out into the brilliantly lighted avenue, he seemed to be pondering some momentous question which had disturbed him immensely.
Several times in the course of an hour Harold went over to his bureau and opened a drawer, shut it and returned to his chair, getting more despondent each time. Finally, taking courage, he pulled down the shades, locked the door; then, the coast was clear! He went to the dresser again, opened the drawer, and excitedly searched for something.
After a few seconds of digging under the clothes, he drew out a heavy, black object of shiny metal. He handled it fondly for a few moments, and after a few deft movements, a series of clicks told him that it was in good working order. Thus, reassured, he loaded it and slipped it into his pocket. Then, donning a dark blue overcoat and a wide brimmed hat, he locked the door and raised the shades, returning the room to its original nonchalance. He silently crept into the hall and down the back stairs. Suddenly
THE
ARETEthere were a series of thumps, and Harold reached the ground floor in a disheveled heap. He lay still; had anyone heard him? Cautiously he opened the back door and stepped out into the yard.
Quickly turning up his collar and pulling down his hat, he walked to the dimly lighted alley in the rear of the house and thence toward his goal. After blocks of stealthy maneuvers through darkened alleys and side streets, Harold reached the downtown area. There he was forced to walk down the main street. Quickening his pace when he came to a lighted section, and looking to the street whenever a policeman approached, Harold finally reached his destination. It was a large marble building with a columned front. Its solid look suggested years of constant use in the community.
After making sure that no one had followed him, he jumped up the steps and hid himself behind a pillar to await the moment for action. After what seemed to him to be several hours, but in reality, was less than tw'enty minutes, several large cars pulled up before the entrance. In the eternity which elapsed before the cars' occupants reached him, Harold's mind wandered over his actions of the last hour. This was to be his first outside job, the first really big undertaking of his career and he was tense with excitement.
He reached into his pocket and drew out his weapon; the cold metal in contact with his hand reassured him. He was prepared; the time was at hand; he couldn't fail now I A chill ran up his spine, they were almost up to him. He raised his weapon and waited a few seconds. Suddenly his finger tensed. A blinding flash illuminated the entrance. There was a sharp crack. The frightened people started to mill around. Then the police arrived; several grabbed Harold. This was unnecessary; he was harmless; he was only a camera fiend and a Deanna Durbin fan.
He remembered now his promise to his parents that he would never again use his camera. Alas, he had broken it, but nevertheless, he returned home, happy at the thought of getting the picture while still distressed at the thought of having to get in without wakening his parents. Such are the trials and tribulations of a Hound", a "Camera Hound” naturally.

We whose pictures are scattered throughout the pages of this annual sports section, constitute the Aquinas gridders of the class of '41. Nothing short of an undefeated record had been our battle cry. Yet, the season's results of our four wins and three defeats was our realization. We know that we could have won them all. Nevertheless we cherish a satisfaction from our endeavors in all but one game—that encounter with Canisius High. And although we were a sickly machine in comparison with some of the school's former engines, often times we did show ample color. Our campaign was also marked by several important events of precedence. Our's was the first Irish aggregation to drop spring training and play under interscholastic rules; the first to journey out of town; and the first to play Sunday ball.
In every game, plays, performed with speed and precision—characteristic of all Maroon and White teams—thrilled and entertained our loyal supporters.

Sat., Sept. 28—Aquinas Thumps DeSales 32—0
Aquinas made an auspicious debut in eradicating DeSales of Geneva, a gallant but very much outplayed foe. The Irish scored with little exertion of effort in every quarter. In this contest Don Kirchhoff, a sterling pass receiver and defensive stalwart, showed his prowess when with one hand he grabbed a bullet pass from Bill Green, and fell into the end zone. Landry and Reynolds scored on long runs and Bernie Sullivan's incessant endeavors proved difficult to cope with. As the game progressed every able-bodied member of the squad was shifted into the lineup and saw considerable action. Although Aquinas won a decisive victory, there was still a question of whether its line could hold up under stronger opposition.
Sun., Oct. 6—Aquinas Nips Auburn 7—0
An excursion of Maroon and White supporters traveled to Auburn to witness the clash between Aquinas and Holy Family. Up to the last few minutes both teams battled on equal grounds in a scoreless deadlock which was finally broken when Bernie Sullivan snatched a pass thrown into the end zone by Harry O'Neil; Jim Kearney added the extra point. Notable was the unyielding defensive stand staged by the Irish in the first quarter when the Purple and Gold failed to score from the Aquinas eight yard line on four successive attempts. This, we might state, was the sort of game that is worth watching. On that particular Sunday afternoon two teams were fighting furiously for a score;
the best team won.Sat., Oct. 12—Aquinas Overpowers Corning Eleven 25—0
While this provided more opposition than the score indicates, a series of well executed plays brought about four touchdowns. With the return of Howie Kunzer and A1 Frankunas to the lineup, both of whom are fierce tacklers and blockers, the offensive and defensive endeavors of the team were bolstered. Big "Moose" Landry broke loose on a sixty yard jaunt for the major spectacle of the day. Runs by Breslin, Reynolds and O'Neil supplemented those of Landry's.
Sun. Oct. 20—Aquinas Falls To Detroit in Thriller 19—12
The much rumored trip to Detroit materialized when three teams journeyed by train to the "Motor City” to play in the University of Detroit's Stadium before 6,000 spectators. The Irish forces received a devastating blow in the earliest stages of the first quarter when their hopes were dimmed by the blocking of a punt in Aquinas' end zone which resulted in a touchdown for Catholic Central. Did this diminish the traditional fighting spirit, characteristic of all Aquinas elevens? The fighting Irish proved that it did not, by retaliating with a courageous struggle which merited a temporary lead in the second quarter. After George Kellman had blocked a punt and recovered on the Detroiter's twenty-six yard line, a fine bullet pass from Green to Sullivan set the stage for Landry to plunge over from the "two" and knot the score. Shortly following, the "Moose” faded and pitched a strike to Don Kirchhoff netting another six points. But as the game progressed the Detroit reserve power proved incomparable to the Aquinas gridders. In spite of the final outcome, the unrelenting efforts of Bernie Tofany, Henry Lattinville, Joe Scott and Bob Callahan cannot go unmentioned.The Buffalo eleven made two scores in the first five minutes of play as 3,500 watched a losing cause. Aquinas, again displaying its pugnacious spirit, came back to tie the score, but lost in the last few minutes when Werder broke loose for a long run which culminated in the winning touchdown. A deluge of successful passes hurled by Bill Green and Joe Flood proved to be in vain. Wes McMahon supplemented the brilliant quarterbacking of Bc-rnie Tofany with his long run-backs and fine blocking. Even in defeat, Ffank Lattinville kept the team spirited with his usual spark.
Sat., Nov. 2—Aquinas Subdued By Elmirans 13—0

A fine crowd turned out to watch the Irish in their last game, and witnessed an impressive victory over the school's major rival. All the Aquinas scores were the returns for long, persistent marches sparked by the running of Landry, O'Neil, and Tierney in the backfield, and the forceful line play of Ray McEneany, Don Kirchhoff and Jim Kearney. St. Joe's fought desperately to pull close in the third quarter but the Aquinas team kept right on rolling and was fairly safe throughout the entire fracas.

And so the summation of Aquinas football games during the past season has ended. But there is one phase of Aquinas football that has been present for many years and, we hope, will be present for many more. That certain vital part of Aquinas football, that has made Aquinas football what it is, is coach John Sullivan. In every Aquinas Arete since John Sullivan's initial year as Irish grid mentor, there reads within its sport pages the finest and most flattering remarks that Maroon and White sports enthusiasts could muster when speaking of Johnnie. It is our simple desire to state that everything nice said about him was justly due. Our coach is one of the finest examples of real Catholic men that our country can possibly produce. We sincerely thank you, John, for your many efforts and trials and moments of pleasure with us. The thought of never again wearing the school colors under your guidance brings a choke to our hearts. You will always be a fondest memory of our days at Aquinas.
Mr. Leary, as assistant coach, merits, too, heartfelt thanks and much credit for the faithful and efficient performance of his duties. His friendly advice and extra pointers were always generously dispensed of.
Mr. Callahan, who is known to the squad only as "Marty", won the admiration of every member, not only by his pain relieving services, but also by his warm informal chats.
A new addition to the coaching staff this year was our old friend and young alumnus - -not only of the school, but also of the team -Elmer Nacca.
It is unnecessary, in our opinion, to speak of the character and ability of Father Sheehan, our director of athletics. The "quality" of sports at Aquinas is pure evidence of his good work.
United, the above mentioned are an indispensable staff.BASKETBALL AT ITS PEAK
The success of Basketball at Aquinas in the past decade can be attributed to the coaching of Mort Leary. This success lies wholly in the record Mort has made in the years that he has been coaching. Mort's uncanny ability to develop fair teams into very successful teams can be traced to their teamwork which he called the most necessary fundamental in basketball.
He played basketball for Aquinas under Billy McCarthy. In his last year at Cathedral High, he was captain and high scorer. This same team went to the Chicago Tournament. After graduating he attended Villanova University. He was very successful in his basketball endeavors at Villanova and upon his return to Rochester replaced Billy McCarthy as coach. His hard work in drilling the boys in the past decade has made Aquinas a very prominent foe on the hardwood for any school in the state.
Mort may leave Aquinas this year and not return because of a position he has received with the local W. P. A. board. Aquinas basketball fans will greatly miss Mort, and basketball at Aquinas will receive a severe jolt; but whether he leaves Aquinas or not, everyone wishes him the best of luck in his endeavors.
. . . Aquinas on the Court . . .
With a brilliant 41-15 point victory over Batavia before an over-capacity crowd in the Dewey gym, Aquinas concluded its 1940-41 court campaign. At the beginning of the season this team was an unknown quantity. With but two regulars returning the Aquinas future depended largely on the newcomers. However the success story that this quintet wrote is evidence of their rapid perfection.
Sixteen times, the foes of Aquinas, possessing skills and styles of all types, tried to dethrone the highly perfected Leary-men, and only once did the masterful tactics of our team fail to conquer, and then by but one point. A victorious season with such a stiff schedule surely places the 40-41 team among the greatest in a truly brilliant history of basketball at Aquinas.To attempt nomination of an individual star of this year's team is an impossibility; every member of the team was a champion. In them Mort Leary found a collection of unexcelled individual abilities and combined them into a highly mechanized unit which distinguished itself by defeating every opponent on the schedule.
DeSales High of Geneva was first on the list to face the Aquinas basketeers, who were inaugurating the greatest season in several years. The Maroon and White took over the reins early in the game and proved its superiority by a wide margin. This 35-15 victory was featured by the dazzling defense employed by our team and by the outstanding work of "Bars" Nally.
Following the successful start, Aquinas took the next two games in stride with victories over Sodus and lrondequoit High Schools. Then came the crucial test—our strong rival from Buffalo, Canisius High, was to be the next opponent. Canisius, having won two court victories over Aquinas the previous season was regarded as stiff opposition. But Aquinas showed its true colors by a 36-24 win which was the start of a brilliant season.Holy Family of Auburn invaded the Dewey Avenue gym in an attempt to upset the rampage of the Leary-men. Throughout the game our team showed its superiority and closed the battle with a 42-16 triumph.
Our victory minded team travelled to Buffalo where, in a close game, they established a new precedent by defeating a St. Joseph team on its own court. At the end of the game, Aquinas, by a 26-17 win, found itself possessor of a six game winning streak.
At this point in the season it became obvious that Aquinas definitely had something in the basketball line. With C B. A. our next and undoubtedly toughest opponent on the horizon, the interest of the Aquinas students was intensified. For, after all, Aquinas hadn't beaten C. B. A. since '32. Mort Leary's champions were at the peak for this game. They smothered everything the boys from Syracuse had and went on to win a lop-sided victory 41-27. Jerry Klem turned in a great performance by his outstanding defensive play (which was to a large extent, the reason why Budd Werner, Syracuse star, collected but a meager 4 points) ; Neil Culhane copped the scoring honors with an unbelievable 21 point total.
POTENTIAL POWER—THE AQUINAS RESERVES
The Maroon and White having run its winning streak to 10 games by victories over Sodus, DeSales, and Irondequoit ventured to Syracuse for its next game—accompanied by 700 rooters. However the determination of the Syracusans was too great and we were bitterly edged out by one point. Yet, not to be discouraged by this heart-breaker, our team went on to defeat Canisius and Batavia.
With twelve victories to their credit our champions added three more to their string, and completed their schedule with wins over St. Joseph's, Holy Family, and Batavia, all of whom had already fallen under the might of the great Aquinas team.
All five of Leary's first team had played their last game for Aquinas and had written their deeds into the history of Aquinas basketball together with another individual— the team manager, Richard Keenan. Aquinas and its basketeers owe a debt of gratitude to Dick who kept our team more publicized this season than it has ever been. We thank Dick also for being responsible for the receiving of an invitation to the Chicago Tournament, which, unfortunately, our Alma Mater was unable to accept. Again we say, thanks for a ''good" job.
Here, too, we would like to render a note of gratitude and encouragement to next year's key men—the Aquinas reserves.

INTRAMURAL PROGRAM
We feel that our sports section would be incomplete were we to omit a short phrase concerning this year’s intramural program. Under the capable guidance of Fr. Duggan it reached the acme in popularity and student participation. This was due to the system of challenging rather than dividing each home room into leagues. The program, vast in variety, included football, baseball, basketball, tennis, bowling, golf and table tennis. The benefits derived from the program were many; we hope they will be even more at Aquinas in the future.BOWLING —ON THE BEAM
5
The Aquinas Bowling League, on April 7, brought to a dose its most successful season. For the third successive year it was dominated by Roy Foos who again captured individual and team leadership. Under the direction of the versatile Fr. Hastings, the circuit featured many new innovations. The league was reduced from the large groups of previous years to a small compact wheel of eight teams. This greatly increased the rivalry and enabled the bowlers, who met more often during the season, to become better acquainted. The group picked up the trend of most major loops when it adopted the policy of abolishing all individual prize money. In this way it threw the entire amount of prize money, which added up to $75, to the eight teams. Therefore, each individual who participated during the season received a share of the prize money. As usual, the league held forth at Ridge Bowling Hall each Monday afternoon after school.
I
Noticeable this year was a marked increase in the averages of the bowlers. Many became experienced and polished bowlers over the 18-week course. Fr. Hastings, under whose guidance the league was originated years ago, had his best season boasting of a 175 average. Ed Hoesterey, Al Filato, Dick Donovan, Jim Bryan, and Jim Wegman all improved greatly. It is certain many of these bowlers will be heard from again in Rochester bowling circles. The bowlers, however, displayed more than just bowling improvement, they showed a love for the game, of sportsmanship, and of competition that will be of immeasurable aid to them in the future.

151GRATI AS
The Arete is an individual effort of our class; it is our final contribution to school life. It is a tribute to our ideals, our initiative, and our ability. We wish it to stand as a lasting memorial to us—the class of 1941.
It is only fitting, now that the Arete is completed, that we give due recognition to those among us whose special effort made its success possible.
Therefore, we extend our gratitude to:
Father Meyer—who directed so well the publication of the Arete from a sick bed;
Salvatore Pozzanghera—our Editor-in-Chief—who labored strenuously and successfully to produce this annual. His labors, his troubles, will not be forgotten by us;
Jim Kearney and Bill Myers—our business managers—the members of the business board for their excellent financial direction;
The members of the Literary Board—for their splendid literary achievements;
Those comprising all the other boards—music, art, sports, photographic, humor—for their individual efforts;
Father Murphy and Father Regan for their time so willingly spent in proof-reading.
Mr. Miller, our librarian, and Merwin Morehouse—for their typing assistance—and all those students whose names are starred for their special aid.
Again, to these go our heart-felt thanks.
The Class of Nineteen Hundred Forty-one.

EYESIGHT IS A PRICELESS POSSESSION
Tired eyes mean headache, eyestrain and possible nervous disorders. If your eyes bother you—have them examined. If it is a question of inadequate or improper light—try an I. E. S. Lamp.
I. E. S. Lamps provide scientifically correct light and safeguard your sight and health. Every home should have an I. E. S. Lamp for homework and other reading tasks.

WHAT'S A "CUSTOMER"?
A man or woman who habitually buys his or her needs in a certain store
Or perhaps—
an Aquinas student who has learned, during school days, how well Sibley's supplies any and every need and will carry that learning to practical application in his later life.
