Religion, English Glee Club Moderator Mr. William C. Quinn English, Latin » Study of English aids in self-expression of student The careful study of English and the reading of numerous works of art are of more intrinsic value than the knowledge of the definition of a gerund or the understanding of numerous plots and counterplots. The study of English helps to develop the ability to express thoughts, advance ideas and influence others. In order that the above purposes of language may be used effectively, one must be able to think clearly, express ideas precisely and employ with facility a colorful and expansive language. The purpose of a course in English is to train the mind to organize a complete knowledge of a means of ex- pression and present opinions and further knowledge. Through the study of other persons ' opinions, in the form of literature, we soon come to a complete realization of the methods to propagate our own beliefs. Rev. Brother Christopher Charles, F.S.C. Religion, English Jameson an Moderator Rev. Brother Charles Felix, F.S.C. Religion, English, Mathematics Swimming Moderator Mr. Charles F. Grosse English, Art, Dramatics Coach 16

Brother Wilfrid records the French reading of Andrew McKenna, as John Szeligow- ski and Kevin McGuire await their turn at the microphone. Rev, Brother B. Aloysius, F.S.C. Religion. French (Dept. Head) Rev. Brother C. Adrian, F.S.C. Religion, French, Athletic Director Swimming Moderator Rev. Brother Aloysius Francis, F.S.C. Religion, French Weightlifting Moderator French: study of customs, language and people The time of crisis is at hand. Man must learn to live with and understand his neighbor or suffer annihilation along with him. Through an understanding of other peoples, by studying their history, learning their problems, and understanding their views, complete accord may be had. Through the study of French we try to realize the problems of a people and obtain an enlightened and clear view of their needs. Soon we under- stand the French people better and we learn to communicate with them on equal terms. Thus coordination becomes complete, and harmony routs discord. In still another way we at Loughlin are learning to bear our Christian principles into view, and to use what we have learned for the betterment of all. Mr. Richard B. Cochrane French Mr. John J. Gloster French Rev. Brother M. Wilfrid, F.S.C. Religion, French, French Club 15
