O'Neill, at handball behind Flynn Hall. te It’s for sure that summer is here. while Second Bruté defeated First Bruté 69-50. In the finals Second Bruté had little difficulty beating Third DuBois 73-56. An all-star team composed of Simonelli, Tumulty, Clark, Comerford, and Evers was chosen by the coaches. In February a foul shooting contest was held. Leo Green emerged the winner, converting 24 of 25 foul shots. Tumulty and Sharpe were tied for second, making good 22 of 25 fouls. In Flynn Hall, also in February, the badminton elimi- nation tournament began with 32 hopefuls participating. In the final analysis it was Kerr over Woods by two 15-7 scores for the championship. The intramural softball league opened on March 31 and proved to be a very interesting one. Second Mac, with the league’s top pitcher in “Doc”? Dougherty, was the early season favorite. Third Bruté was the ‘‘dark horse’ of the league. First Bruté, with lefty Ted Kachnowski’s pitching and First Mac, with tremendous hitting power, were very rough on the opposition. The above four teams were bound to be near the top of the eleven-team league when the dust cleared and the season was completed. R. Gaughan and J. Berumen, targeteers. 130

SEMINARY A facet of life at Mount St. Mary’s which yet seeks reflection upon these pages is that of our Seminary. An inte- gral part of the campus and informed by those same ultimate principles that be- come a governing force in the lives of all Mountaineers, yet the Seminary is dis- tinct in purpose, and this basic difference of vocation is immediately evident to the chance observer—the clerical garb of the students, the schedule, and the fact of independent existence in a building re- stricted to its activities. The Seminary is a way of life, and it is in terms of the animating principles that the more obvious is explained. As with life, too, the spirit of the Seminary ex- capes adequate definition and description. Sketch, trace, illustrate—these we can do. But pictures verbal or visual cannot communicate the full meaning. To be known, it must be experienced; it must be lived to be appreciated. To be an Alter Christus—another Christ—is the spirit which vivifies this body of priestly aspirants and each of its members. To achieving in some measure this purpose, mutual assistance and edi- fication of a community life are most con- ducive. Brothers in Christ, in identifiying themsleves with the common purpose and means, they identify themselves with Christ and His Mystical Body. On the pages that follow shall be de- picted the seminarians in various atti- tudes of prayer, study, and recreation. These three aspects are permeated with the same unity of purpose that binds the seminarians in a common life.
