1 In early September of this year St. Aloysius School opened its doors to admit 76 Freshmen, 38 of whom were placed in 1-E. Many hours of hard work were meted out by our teachers, Fr. Bellwoar, S.J., Mr. Hughes, S.J., Miss Council, Mr. Kozik, and Mr. Freeman. Fast progressing through the declensions, through equations, through call numbers, and through ancient history we realized the need for class oflicers, Those elected were M. Lopez, president, R. Asbill, vice-presi- dent, Boratenski, secretary, and M. Thornett, treas- urer. The various activities of the school counted many 1-E'ers as participants. Many 1-E'ers were active in De- bating, the Sodality, the Aquilian, the Band, the Stage Crew, or the Library Club. Many more participated in J.V. and intra-mural football and in J.V. and freshman basketball. As we of l-E look to the future we hope to be ex- emplars of Gonzaga spirit and to be the leaders of to- morrow. Fr. Bellwoar, S.J., demonstrates the uses of the Perfect Indicative in Latin by giving a quiz, a daily tradition at Gonzaga. First Row: J. Dunn, T. Schneider, J. Swift, J. Kenny, G. O'Donnoghue, Fr. J.

The purpose of Catholic Education is to train good Catholics. At Gonzaga the Sodality has a special role to play in achiev- ing this goal. For the Sodality has as its pur- pose the perfection of this aim, that is, to train exemplary Catholics. Ad Jesum per Mariam is the motto of the Sodality and this motto summarizes perfectly the Sodalist's way of life. For, in all that he does, the Sodalist strives to sanctify his life by offering all his efforts and achievements to Thee, O Lord, through Mary. ocfaliiy
