Housed within a venerable building, the hallowed halls of Chaminade reach out to us as a constant source ot inspiration. For it was in these halls that we came tirst of all to broaden our knowledge so that We might be able to take our place in the World ot which we are members.

With the right mixture of play and work that our principal, as Doctor of school life has prescribed for us, we leave our Alma Mater, with fond memories of Brother lulius May, S.M., and strive forward to the results which are expected of us. Our leader in this past year of game and strife has brought to us new roads to follow and new paths to clear. He carefully guided our efforts to heap honor and spiritual glory upon ourselves. He gave us more frequent oppor- tunity to receive Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, and developed in us a more religious spirit. A reconditioned and improved campus were just a few of The things he accomplished for us through his untiring efforts to make us proud of Chaminade. He guided us as leaders of the underclassmen to whom we were expected to pass on all that is worthy in us. At the time of our gradu- ation our thoughts are near to Chaminade and our principal. This year the veteran Bro. Paul O'Brien took over the duties of vice- principal. Qnly a few words are necessary to express our attitude toward him since he is a very familiar person to us, and to former grads. Because of his familiarity with Chaminade and its students, he knew full well his duties and accomplished them with apparent ease. Knowledge and an understanding of the men of Chaminade gave him a quality of leadership that is unsurpassed. ln the way of spiritual leader and boys best companion we have Father Karl Wilhelm, S.M. Needless to say, in his first year he has become an almost permanent fixture of the school. With his spiritual guidance and thoughtful con- sideration of our problems he showed us the road to true success. He has not only striven forth in scholastic work but also showed himself a capable moder- ator of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade. PAUL P. O'BRlEN, SM., V. Prin. FATHER KARL WILHELM, S.M.

Yes, it was in this sort ot training that we were given a sort ot pre- view of our lite to come. But though these halls contain the record ot Work and Play, the Results ot all these preparations can only be shown lov us in the future years.
