CLASS HISTORY, ’34 Ralph F Lewis, Jr. . President John J. Smith ... Vice-President John E. Mulvihill Secretary Cornelius J. McCloskey Treasurer Four years ago, a struggling, awe-struck band of Freshmen gathered before the steps of the Auditorium. Father Deane tried to establish order, but failing hopelessly before the chaotic disorder turned us over to the tender ministrations of the Sophomores. In the weeks that followed we suffered much but also learned much about Ford ham that was to be of value to us in our years on Campus. Caps and tics were soon discarded, and the Freshmen became an essential part of school life. The outstanding feature of the year was the magnificent victory of the Freshman football ream over the N. V. U. Frosh in a charity game at the Yankee Stadium. The Maroon youngsters kicked, passed and ran in superlative fashion, giving great promise for their varsity careers which were to follow. The officers elected for Freshman year were Ed Malloy, President; Bob Dclancv, ice-President; Joe Tierney, Secretary; and Paul Travers, Treasurer. To us fell (lie necessity, on our return m Sophomore, of initiating the Freshmen, an office which was performed by the Vigilance Committee with some difficulty, open rebellion being met on many fronts. In fact one member of the committee well remembers having the tables completely turned upon him. However, complete amity was soon restored and things began to function normally. The Annual Prcscnrarion of the Mimes and Mummers was Twelfth Night.’ Bob Cox, in the role of Sir T’obv Belch and Bill Scliolz as Valentine gave verv fine performances and Fred Fresc as Maria Olivia s gentlewoman played excellently an otherwise most difficult role. The One-Act Play Contest, held later in the year, afforded the Thespians of the class another opportunity to display their talents. Bob Cox was adjudged rhe Best Actor, and James Albcrsc was the author of one of the competing plays. Lcn Riordan, Jack Murray and Bill Moody by their work behind rhe scenes helped immeasurably towards the evening’s success. 30 F O R D H A M
