of capable athletes, the sophomores won themselves a high rating in intramural and varsity sport circles. Intramurals saw them excel in both rugged athletics and the more easy- going type. John Carosi won the Athletic Association’s pool tournament while Bob Wood and Dick Kerr played each other in the badminton final which Kerr won. The sophs won the inter-class football championship and their third DuBois team placed second in the basketball league. The varsity basketball team was studded with sophomores. Wood, Mazoureix, Ned Powers, Joe Warner, John Roch- ford, and Jerry Ryan all saw cage action in Blue and White uniforms. Their classmates, George Downs and Jim Lin- hard kept them supplied with towels in their capacities as team managers. When cracking bats and thumping | fielders’ gloves announced the opening of baseball season | many sophs responded to the call. At the first game along with team manager, Dick Kelly, sophomores Clarke, Powers, Leo Greene, Dick Barnes and Pete O’Hagan (trainer) were on the squad. The sophomores were most influential on the school paper. At year’s end Maurice Gable and Ed Karam were co-editors-in-chief of the Mountain Echo. Four of their eight chief assistants were classmates—Ronnie Hagarman, John Byerly, Mike Monahan, Russ Rycheck and Ray EDUCATION: J. Linhard, J. LaPosta, T. Dillon F. DeFebo. Connor. No one doubted, as they finished their second year, that the men of 1954 would carry on the Mount tradition of well rounded personalities in their future lives as defenders of Church and Country. — El t e 2 ti BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION: Front: G.

Sophomore Class September of 1950 brought 180 first year men, the small- est freshman class of our time, to the Mount campus. The class contained the smallest number of veterans since World War II ended. Thus, the incoming Class of 1954 served as a sign to us that the nation’s colleges were return- ing to the pre-war normal in student age level and enroll- ment. Of the 180 who first entered 120 came back for their second year. Among those who did not come back many were numbered as serving with the fighting forces of our country. Their classmates were in the service of the United States also. At Mount St. Mary’s they learned the Catho- lic way of life, directly opposed by Communism, and were thus preparing themselves for future onslaughts against the enemy of all freedom-loving men. As we left the Mount in June 1952 the Class of 1954 had already made a deep imprint on campus life. In their freshman year they were hazed in traditional fashion. A few men were lost as a result of semester exami- nations, yet class morale was not destroyed and the men went on their way breathing the Mountain air. At election time the people’s choice for freshman class president was Frank Anello. Joe Fitzgerald, Hank Hund, and John Carosi were also elected. In May they and the class proved their capability for doing things by making Memorial Gymnasium look like a different place for a dance which, together with the sheen from a shiny white moon, produced one of the year’s most appreciated social events. iF 5 oo ROO ee ee SOCIAL SCIENCE: Front: J.

In a curious twist of campus politics, Fitzgerald and Anello switched their offices of vice-presi- dent and president. Hund was again asked to keep the bank account and Jack Mazoureix was picked to replace Carosi. At the beginning of their second year, the men of 754 were assigned to DuBois Hall.
