We didn't go back, we went forward as we started our first year in Gonzaga. By the time we had held class elections in l-D, in which Charles Fletcher was elected Presi- dent, Donald' Hogan, Vice-President, and Thomas'Henry, Secretary, the months marks were upon us. Few of us realize how fast the time went, since we were absorbed in studies and extra-c rricular activities. l-D had good turnouts in 'blbth football and basketball intra- murals, fielding five and six teams in those tournaments which gave a good account of themselves. Mr. Scharper, S.J., was Latin teacher, Mr. McGee, S.J., Algebra teacher, Fr. Kavanagh, S.J., English teacher and Fr. Bellwoar, S.J., instructed us in Religion each week. June will end the history of l-D H944- l945l, but its spirit and the memory of the pleasant experiences will go on in the hearts and minds of its members.

Our Latin loomed as an insurmountable wall, but under the able teaching of Fr. Brew, S.J., we battered that barrier into nothingness. The efficient instruction of Mr. Messemer, fS.J., and Mr. Madigan, our Algebra and English teachers respectively, has converted the students of I-C into capable mathemati- cians and grammarians. Our treasury has sponsored several class- nights at which we all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly amidst sports and refreshments. Mention any of the school activities and you will find l-C men, with Redmond, John- son, and Mountin as outstanding athletes. The class officers are Daniel Mountin, Ralph Johnson, Edwin Latimer and Melvin Deale in the usual order. It has been a tough year, but may the next three be as happy, and may we make the most of them.

The proof of this statement can be easily found, for l-E boys have made a name for themselves in selling tickets for the Gonzaga-St. John's games, and besides, l-E is the only section that has a class newspaper, the l-Eaglet. The energy and eagerness manifested in selling tickets for the football and basket- ball games won for l-E a first, a second, and a third prize, totaling seventy dollars. The 'l-Eaglet has for its Editor Tim Daley. The Assistant Editor is Al Turner, the News Editor is Jimmy Snight, and the Sports,Editors are Bob Casey and Jules Loh. In the election of class officers, the dimin- utive Jimmy Snightbecame President, the giant Bob Casey, Vice-President, AI Turner, Secretary, and Tim-Daley and Jules Loh, Treasurers.
