Shamrock Club The Irishmen of Mount St. Mary’s met on common sod in the Shamrock Club, designed to impart Irish culture and to add to campus life in the way of athletic and social events. Our classmates, Joe Charles and Dick Gaughan, pre- — sided over this group of Erin’s sons in our junior and senior years, respectively. Their terms as president saw the Club, with the aid of Professor McCullough as moderator, suc- cessfully sponsor dances, field days, the Mount’s only ‘hole-in-one’ contest, and a guest lecture by a member of the Irish embassy, Mr. Francis Coffey. Metropolitan Club Sophisticated, and in the know about the latest songs, plays, and politics were the Broadway and near-Broad- way boys. Proud of their homes in and near the Empire city, and anxious to keep in touch with each other in and out of school, they joined the Metropolitan Club at the Mount. The club was one of the most socially active on campus. Next to the Junior Prom, the highlight of the Mount pleasure calendar was the annual Metropolitan Club Christmas Dance. During our senior year the cos- mopolites sponsored a picnic and a steak dinner for the members, in addition to its regular Thanksgiving get- together, always popular with students and alumni. pe, D.
