J HM Jl tirCE ' s—fB?- T VS ' ; N r Cfte (0xforb of America THE ■preceding pages of this volume have shown to you something of the architectural and panoramic beauties of our Alma Mater. Let them imprint themselves on your mind as they have fixed themselves indelibly on the souls of all those who have lived and wish to live again ' mid the scenic splendor that is Boston College. You, who must be content ivith but an image graven on paper, can never fully realize the sublimity of that image as we have seen it — real, present, tangible. We ivho have lived and studied here, surrounded by those silent yet living piles of stone, will ever recall with a thrill of justifiable pride the magnificence of our Heights. The Heights! How apt the term! How intimate! Apt in its connotation of the glorious heights which American architects can achieve; intimate in its symbolism of the height and depth of a lasting spirit of fellowship eng endered beneath the austere majesty of those towering piles. Basically founded here on the native rock that lay through the ages awaiting the master touch of the architects, the O.vford of America slowly takes shape. First arose our stately Adminis- tration Building with its massive Gothic tower and its pealing carillon, calling all to the intellec- tual and spiritual perfection of a higher education. Enclosed here by its strong walls is found beauty sufficient to delight the aesthetic .senses of a Pugin and a Raphael. The magnificent and lofty rotunda, its walls embellished with graceful arches and heroic murals, below which one finds the finest marble e.tamples of the .sculptor ' s art, is the center of a plethora of beautiful cham- bers, formal halls and somber .study rooms. Here surrounded by all that is suggestive of the fine arts, the men of Boston College are tutored in the Humanities and Philosophy of the ages. Next among our buildings is Saint Mary ' s Hall. Standing like a .sentinel at the entrance to the spacious grounds, it serves as a friendly harbor for those men of the cloth who have dedicated their lives to the education of youth. Within this structure can be found the acme of ecclesiastical Gothic design, from the beautiful Saint Ignatius Chapel to the cloistered gardens. Truly a place of repose for these men of God! Steadily the renown of their pedagogy spread and the field of science was opened to the young men of New England who, enticed by the wisdom of the Jesuits, crowded the vastness of the neio building called Science. There, in the modern laboratories and spacious lecture hills, the my.steri.es of the ages are expounded and clarified to those who will some day lead the field in medicine, biology, chemistry and physics. Least ornate of all the group, Science, in its Gothic simplicity, is the symbol of the unified truth taught behind its solid ma.sonry. The culmination of this humble appreciation must be necessarily a word-picture of perhaps one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in America. Our Library! A .strong edifice, solid and massive, but the rugged lines of which are softened by a series of graceful, arching windows, beautiful in coloring and design, each making to live again the literary tales of the masters. Within this building a sweeping expanse of .stairumj leads to the main hall, the reading-room with its massive, carved, oaken beams and its stately chandeliers, wherein the very air .seems to impart the spirit of deep, quiet .study. The antechambers of this magnificent pile are filled with rare old first editions, priceless relics of antiquity and the works of the masters in painting. Such, in brief, is the mere language-depiction of an architectural work that really beggars description. Here is but an humble attempt to put in words the feeling of deep love and reverence for Boston College engendered in the hearts of her men by the beauty of their Alma Mater. C. E.

His generosity and loyalty to his classmates have given him the popularity which he has enjoyed both as a fellow student and class officer. Anyone who came over to the Heights during the summer noticed a tall, red-headed fellow toiling sweatingly at putting up the Stadium. If the observer was in any way inquisitive, he discovered the labor- ing youth to be our friend Jack Ahearn. That B. C. was able to put up a Stadium we can thank the Alumni, but for the actual existence of the stands, we thank Jack and his fellow workers. Mw, . . . overcoat lost on N. Y. trip . . .

His enthusiasm and generosity, wliether sliown in his offer to help change a balky tire or in sharing his lunch, added rationality and jjrohative force to this premature liking. Every day he drove to the Heights from the very shade of the Salem Willows, of which we have most pleasant memories from the occasion of our sopho- more outing and (most coincidentally) the simultaneous Regis outing. Tom, who proposed the Willows at that time, has been popular ever since for his foresight and intuition. He has always been an ardent follower of discussions in English Literature and, as a critic of the drama, had few equals. This young idealist and aesthete will necessarily meet success as a complement to his likeable disposition. W M m _ _. . . .

In both circles he made himself most prominent. Every function of the class found him in the midst of activity, particularly those which called for tuxedos or tails. In the classroom, although he rarely expres.sed his opinion outwardly, his high standing testified to his ability. His love for the classics must be confessed when we consider that he elected Latin in both junior and senior. Bun, as he was sometimes called, was not a memberof the many clubs or academies at the Heights, but when he was with the boys from Charlestown he took part in many an escapade. His pleasant disposition and his energetic attitude assure him both happiness and success. m . . . admirer of Hvyhic Connors ' bund . . . vacations ul Silrvr Luke and Hampton Beach . . .

Without a doubt, nobody in the 34 group had a wider acquaintance among his classmates than Chick ; nor did anyone attend more school functions. He not only knew almost everyone in the class, but was one of the best liked members. Chick ' s favorite subject was athletics, particularly baseball. He knew many intimate stories as well as batting averages of the Big Leaguers, and was the class Fred Hoey concerning statistics. However, he was not a passive fan; he played the game himself and played it well. He participated in practically all of the scrub games down on the field during free periods and after classes. Two places where you surely will be able to find Chick are at any B. C. function and at any Big I eague baseball game. II . . .

We do not know whether or not Dave ' s excellent training in scientific exactness had any bearing on his dress, but we do know that he was considered by no small portion of the class to be one of its neatest members. This Brooklinite also gained a reputation for himself as one of the outstanding scholars of the B.S. and pre-med groups. Because of the long hours of laboratory work which his course demanded, Dave did not have much leisure time for par- ticipation in exti ' a-curricular activities. However, every once in a while he managed to forget his cares at the Sheraton Room of the Copley Plaza. In the matter of songs, Dave was a specialist, and we recall how each season he used to pick one song and make it popular among his companions. We look for Dave as a specialist in his field.

We can all remember in our Freshman year two tall individuals walking together ahoutthe campus, one a member of the Society, the other a student; they were Mr. Fitzgerald and Tom. In our Sophomore year, Mr. Fitzgerald had returned to Weston and Tom began to mingle more with his classmates — particularly with Bill Parks. When he reached senior, Tom was one of the best known fellows in the class and liked by all who knew him. And if singing through the microphone in the Physics Lecture Room is any criterion, he will soon replace Crosby as the idol of the air. We all hope that Tom will continue to progress and gain in popularity. There are few more entertaining students in the college. M ...

He was every ready to present one and to assure you that his name was spelled with two r ' s, two t ' s, and, incidently, both t ' s crossed. Whether sitting in the first row of the classroom or .standing in the rotunda, he continually wore his engaging grin, ' as one profes- .sor put it. John was prone to pronounce such words as class and Chandlers with an Liltra-Oxford accent, and often in the crowded lunchroom was he chided for this. On such occasions, John would stomp around and shake his head with that motion so distinctive of him muttering something about Peabody and culture. w . . .

This sprightly gentleman arrived with us as a freshman bearing an earnestness offset by a sense of humor which brightened many a weary hour of Lab. Always a good companion, he did his best to instill college spirit into his acquaintances, and was awake to arguments on life in general and athletics in particular. For Jerry believed that all that was good and holy in athletics came from either of two places — Winthrop or Boston College. Jerry in his own right was something of an athlete. Whenever time off from class permitted various set-tos down on alumni field, Jerry was always to be found there, hurling a pigskin or tackling a charging classmate. m . . .

It is his good fortune to possess a deep, clear voice. But it was not a matter of chance which led to the development of that power. To Jack belongs the ])alm for the manner in which he put that talent to use. A debater of note in Fulton, he polished his natural ability with all that this society could offer him, finally being chosen jjresident of that body. His speeches were indeed a pleasure to hear, and we can truly say that we were all happy to know that his efforts received their due reward in college, just as we know they will in the future.

At home he has achieved renown as a scholastic disputant on questions which Boston College graduates are well prepared to discuss. In fact some day in thenot-too-distant future we expect to see this embryonic poli- tician creating a sensation in the Connecticut House of Representatives. Aside from his political tendencies, Tom is a tenor of the first rank, and his soloistic endeavors as a member of the Glee Club added to the success of many a concert. Moreover, Tom has always pos- sessed the ambition and the determination to succeed. With his characteristic loyalty and his linguistic qualifications we can safely predict that his ambitions will materialize.

Never throughout the four years can anyone remember a day when Bert manifested any indication of physical or mental fatigue. Nor can this display of energy be attributed to an over-amount of sleep, for Berfs extra-curricular activities would cer- tainly disperse such a supposition. Besides achieving a considerable amount of success in his studies, this Somerville scintillant was a member of the Glee Club, a Fulton debater, a track man, and a basketball player of note in both Somerville and Cambridge. Such versa- tility and energy augur well for Bert in all his future endeavours. . . . ml for hair restorer . . . affiliated with Ddii ' Mi ' iini ' ij Co. . . . basketball fiend . . . phiijal on Frosh-K team.

We selected Tom as the most versatile member of the class. This distinction he received because of his ability to adapt himself to any situation, whether it called for the deportment of a class officer, athlete, or gentleman. Mountain climbing is one of his chief hobbies, and he also has a reputation as a hunter of considerable skill. Accompanied by Johnny Dougan, one of his closest friends, Tom often tramped through the New Hampshire woods, patiently awaiting the whim of some denizen of the wilds to appear. In fact, if one can recall the famous operations performed on the occasion of our smokers, it will be remembered how Tom dis- emboweled Johnny Dougan and, after long hunting, extracted both rabbits and pigeons. We admire him for one who gets what he goes after and says nothing about it.

If you had watched the freshman football team practicing, you would have seen a tall, blond, good-looking young man chewing a whistle, and instructing the players in their duties. This is Bill Boehner, possibly the only student coach in collegiate football. A severe football injury cut short his brilliant varsity career and forced him to leave his own class and drop back to ours. But it proved to be our gain, for he was endeared to us by those attributes which will some day make him outstanding — humor, courage, and brains. Here ' s to you.

When the last football season was in full swing, it was not unusual for some interested s])ec- tator to ask, Who is the good-looking drum major? If there were any students nearby, the question would be immediately answered by the name, John Bonner. For what youth has not a heart-hidden envy of the adroitness with which the drum major twirls and corus- cates with studied manoevers his weighty and matured wand? When there was a perceptible dearth of drum major material at the Heights, John stepped in and proved himself a capable baton-spinner. All eyes are usually on the drum major, and all our eyes are on John Bonner to watch him climb to heights unimagined. For, if John ' s scholastic record at B.

In philosophical discussions, he was certain to shine and his brilliance was proved beyond a doubt by his activities in the Ethics Academy.

Charlie ' s kingdom may not be at present very great, but such as it is, (and we are told that it is all contained in that winning smile of his), he would gladly give it for a horse. As an equestrian and a truer lover of horses, Charlie never wore knee-boots. Rosy-fingered dawn saw him up and cantering along Dorchester ' s bridle-paths; and immediately at the closing bell in school, Charlie would betake himself to the stables and his Bucephalus. However, all was not boots and saddles in his life. His mellifluous tenor could be heard amongst the choristers Monday afternoons, and he was an active and principled debater. All in all, one can perceive that Charlie made much more use of his voice than merely to say Whoa. T- EiA -1_. . . . always has a date . . .in the candy busi- ness . . .

His mind, strin- gently philosophical, and doggedly scientific, towered in comprehension to scholarly heights. His physical make-up was also prepossessing, for he was tall and erect. Surely we can safely attribute Horace ' s definition of an all-accomplished man to Paul. Moreover, he was by no means lugubrious and stern with all his deep knowledge. To learn how to smile is an educa- tion in itself, and those who knew Paul received a course in this art, gratis; for his smile was as catching as scarletina.

Frank was constantly delving into books on economical subjects and, as a specialist in this field, he was ever the object of questioning. The only indoor sport which could deter Frank from his books was bridge, a hobby at which he is known to have been a master. At classes and at proms he certainly emphasized his persistency and versatility. In any discussion concerning the land of his ancestors, Fr ank would in.stinctively wax ecstatic, as his friends marvelled at such panegyric fluency. This suave, smartly-dressed, keen-thinking young man has advantages which give him every opportunity to make good. w . . .

Although connected with no outside activities, when he ran for the secretaryship of the class he was easily elected, and we know that it was no more than he deserved. While Jim did not engage in any of the .school sports, he was an athlete in his own right. His friends will testify that he was a scintillating hockey star, and anyone desiring to know of his knowledge of sports in general, should have buttonholed him in the lower rotunda and broach the subject to him. As fellowclassmen we congratulate Jim on his achievements; as friends we wish him every success. M . . .

Among his fellow students Walter has gained the reputation of being a philosopher whose philosophical views were gained, not from books, but from a systematized observation of life in the living. He trod the campus paths in peripatetic fashion declaiming oracularly to his avid followers. He was also an artist and spent a great deal of time embellishing text- books with drawings and cartoons ; indeed if his Psychology tome sliould fall into the hands of a future Senior, it could serve equally well as an instructive work in art or for the higher purpose for which it was intended. The fourth estate .seems to be bemoaning him for he was noticeably engrossed in his journalistic course. However in whatever profession he engages, Walter will always be able to find opportunity for his favorite pastime and leisure-filler, his whimsies with the pen. II . . .

This serious prober of nature ' s mysteries moved among us ever with a sharg eye to the increasing of his scientific data. The five o ' clock soirees in the Science Building, at which he was the center of attraction, did not affect him in the least. John ' s Walpole Ford carried many to and from the town and its environment, never murmuring at the excessive burdens usually forced upon it. Indeed, the contacts made daily in transit developed in him a real sense of humor, and he never neglected an opportunity to chide a fellow-student when a gathering was depressed.

While some of his classmates were catapulted to a place of prominence in senior, Frank chose the harder route and has risen as high if not higher in esteem through his herculean efforts with his drawing pen. Who in the school is not familiar with Frank ' s whimsies as evidenced in his cartoons, posters, and caricatures? The Heights and the Sub Turri are deeply grateful to him for his unstinting efforts. Yet, strangely enough, Frank found time enough not only to try for a part in the dramatic production, but also to rehearse so well that he literally took down the house all during the performances. In short, Frank was a leader in the class. We who were privileged to know him well looked with regret to the day we all had to part, for his inimitable personality was the vital spark in every gathering, formal or informal.

The soothing melodies of his Stradivarius lulled us often into a dreamy reverie — a pleasing antidote for cares. Perhaps it was his irrepressible good- humor which was responsible for his popularity, or mayhap a solicitous interest in our trials and tribulations. At any rate, everyone had a pleasant salutation for Jim upon all occasions, except, — but ought we to recall the time when a potent concoction, brewed by his hand, almost blew the roof from the Science Building? Yet we really thank you even for that, Jim, for it lent excitement to an otherwise dreary week. May you never lose your chuckle and may the gods never fail to smile upon you. W .J— B . . .

Due to the fact that he was more mature than most of us, he possessed more stability and reliance. He is the ideal Beadle. Joe has remained at the top in scholarship for his entire college career. With a view to School Administration as a life endeavor, he will attend a Graduate School of Boston College or Harvard. We like Joe ' s smile and his cheery way of saying Hello.

Frank, however, positively refused to endanger his reputation for preparedness, defying the law of averages with true savoir-faire confidence. Frank was a pre-medical student, and among his scientific accomplishments might be mentioned this little incident. It seems that he and Lou Messina attempted to make rubber in the laboratory and succeeded only in filling said laboratory with a mysterious gas, which sent everyone to cover for the remainder of the day. Frank ' s wisdom in practical subjects was known, despite his quiet manner, to all who came under his influence. Although Burnsy ' s rubber experi- ment might have been a bit unsuccessful, to venture the opinion that he will succeed in the laboratory of the world by no means requires a stretch of the imagination. . . .frequent lottery winner . . .

This Hyde Park youth ' s pre-medical work at school has permitted him little, if any time for extra-curricular activities, but the Class of ' .S4 respects him for his choice of a definite goal and his determination in the ac- complishment of it.

His chief hobby was reading all the new books that appeared at the Library, offering intelligent comment on them to his close associates. His indifference to official achievement at college gave him a rare quality — that of genuine disinterestedness as far as personal ambition was concerned. Those engaging him in conversation will encounter a keen sense of humor and a general, somewhat bashful, knowledge of everything. Beneath these primary qualities, but subtly manifest in every word and action, there is an unusual sense of discernment and a consciousness of the relative fitness of things.

Bob is one of the Brockton commuters who spent half his time as a college student migrating to and from his native haunts, and for that reason we did not enjoy his company as fre- quently as we might have wished. Bob, to our minds, is one of the most even-tempered gentlemen in our class, always calm and unruffled. Moreover, the apparent ease with which he hurdled scholastic difficulties evoked envy from his classmates. In Brockton he is regarded as quite the athlete and man-about -town, indulging in almost every sport on the calendar. His proficiency in swimming was realized when during the summer months he patroled a community pool in the capacity of life-guard, rescuing the distressed from a watery grave. However our association with Bob has been pleasant, and we wish him all kinds of good fortune. . . . BrorLl,,,, Hfr.

Besides baseball, John has the rather unique hobby of listing the automobile registration numbers of many not- ables.

Bert is at home among the savants or as a member of a group devoted to higher pursuits.

Bill always had the intention to study, but somehow or other, as soon as he left the campus, he remembered a previous engagement at the Statler or Salem Willows. Yet Bill did not neglect his books entirely, for he was known as the student who did the lea,st worrying about his junior orals. He was one of those fortunates who are adjectivized as Mercury- footed ; this skill was manifested in his intricate gyrations on the ballroom floor, and in his fleetness on the gridiron.

The reason for his tardiness lay not in any natural lethargy, but rather in the fact that he was the first of the occupants to climb aboard. While at school, John beguiled the leaden hours of the after- noon as a laboratory assistant. During that memorable summer when a building program was quite the talk of the town at the Heights, John gained, after considerable field work, the degree of M.S. (Master of the Shovel). His home cronies have been kind enough to inform us I hat John is adept at whist, fitting easily into all parties in Woburn where that jiastime holds sway. Personality, we learn, consists in versatility. John fills this definition like a sword in a sheath by adding to his other accomplishments a facility at the piano. w T ' n . . .

It was in Math and Physics, however, that he manifested his real ability. Figures, no matter how large or intricate, did not dismay him; and in Physics he often demonstrated to an im- portunate inquirer the various applications of Newton ' s laws or Dalton ' s theory of gases. One day in Physics seminar he amazed those present by reading a paper replete with first- hand information on Vacuum Tubes.

On the Fordham trip, he and his pals did their best to bring a win to the team, but it was just not to be. His tall, spare figure became a well-known sight to all of us, and his pithy, dry humor was a reliable indication of the good common sense which he possessed.

However, the time spent in voyaging to and from college did not allow him sufficient leisure to participate in extra-curricular activities. At this we can only sigh at his bereavement. In the little time he had at his disposal for companionable communion, Joe did impress the class by his demeanor both within the classroom and without.

Nothing ever ruffled him; exams, even French exams, came and went and yet Walter went placidly on, always with a sufficient knowledge of the subject to insure him a permanent place in the scholastic standing of class lists. And that place was not the last one. No, Sir, Cotto had the ability to blend pleasure and study and his happy faculty in this respect was so nicely balanced that to it can be credited the basis of all his unhurried, unruffled success.

Without delving into any lengthy discussion of the term, let us say that when Dan looks at you with that quizzical, tolerant expression, you immediately develop one of these popular complexes. For Dan carries that air which is inseparable from learning and culture. Tall, well dressed, (in fact debonair is the word), he impresses at once. Knowing him better, you find that your complex is mitigated by his warm-hearted cordiality. From experience, we can tell you that he is a wicked bridge player— (to our sorrow).

Handicapped as he was by the change of environment and the entrance into a class which had already estab- lished its circles of acquaintances, his broad smile and ready wit soon made a place for him. Unabashed by the classics, his sharp and brilliant mind fathomed the infinite variety of lessons to be gained from the old masters. Realizing that making friends and gaining knowl- edge have no value unless put to practical use, John extended his activity to social and academic pursuits. The picnic we enjoyed at Riverside during junior brought into the lime- light his athletic prowess when he trotted around the golf course, an old veteran, starting out with a dozen little white pellets and arriving at the fourteenth hole with an empty pocket. . -L. 1 lYutm bccmbY ■B SilSSafiML fJ V jL j l fln Wr iff ' -i--.- . . . works for El during summer . . . com- muter extraordinaire . . .

No CONFERENCE of college coaches has ever elected Tom for All Anierican football honors; nor have baseball writers numbered him among the first ten of college baseball stars. Tom did not engage in collegiate sport, but was nevertheless an athlete in his own right, apprecia- tive and critical of the worth of other more renowned sportsmen, as any who have engaged him in conversation along these lines will declare. Tom was, moreover, an enjoyable enter- tainer, and any who know him will attest to the brilliancy of liiswit and the fund of knowledge he had in store about contemporary happenings. Tom has not been chosen as a nation-wide champ simply because he is not that well known; but we declare him to be an All- American star and a grarluate of whom B. C. can well be proud. W , 1_ H . . .

Tim has always given his fellow students the impression that he is a quiet determined fellow.

Never so busy that he could not pause to learn something that would aid him in later years, Tim entered the Fulton Debating Society and perfected his forensic abilities.

ScHOLASTiCALLY and socially, John was a standout. Possessing an eagerness and ambition that make for greatness, always looking deeply into the subject at hand with a view to making it his own, he waded through his studies in a confident and victorious manner. Especially was this true in his mastery of the classics, in the pursuit of which he was the acme of accuracy and proficiency. In extra-curricular activities, John ' s presence was far from inconspicuous. At school socials he revealed such talent in the art of terpsichore that he was the cynosure of all eyes. To have seen him gliding so easily through a crowded ball- room would have brought joy to the heart of any football coach in search of a broken-field runner. We expect John to go through life in the same manner, never stumbling even over the greatest obstacles. 9 . . .

It is highly probable that the two years of business activity that interrupted Tom ' s college career were marked by the same sincerity and capability that characterized h ' m as a stu- dent. Moreover, his dogged determination was manifest in his striving for a degree. In de- bating, in impromptu class entertainments, Tom played a prominent role. But in senior, his activities as generalissimo of the stadium employees disclosed a practical understanding of human nature, as well as restraint and subtle humor. To his classmates, Tom is known as a real, substantial, and likeable fellow.

Bill was called the man with ideas and ambitions. Now that he has completed his college course, employed his ideas, and realized his ambitions, he more appropriately may be termed the man with accomplishments. Bill was President of Marquette during the second semester of our Sophomore Year. As chairman of Junior Week, he executed a tremendous assignment with unusual courage and success, giving our class a never-to-be-forgotten series of splendid events. The reputation established by the class at that time is unquestionably imperishable, and Bill may rightly feel a just pride in this fact. Although all of us may not have agreed with Bill in all of his studied, philosophical objections, sprung on unsuspecting senior professors, still, we wish him many more opportunities to exercise the outstanding leadership he evidenced at college. n . . . playboy extraordinary . . .

It is alleged that the extent to which an undergraduate indulges in extra-curricular activities and his ability to maintain consistently a creditable scholastic standing is the criterion of future success.

The Musical Club, Fulton, Heights, and Sub Turri can readily attest to his posses- sion of the first of these two requisites. Concerning the second, we can mention that his Junior Oral was flawless. As a measure of safety, Jim adds to these a character which may be most adequately described by the phrase He ' s square.

Frank was a Latin scholar, and any Latin axioms thrown out by a philosophy professor did not intimidate him in the least. Books were his constant delight but he looked upon them not as means of entertainment solely, but rather and more particularly as lush fonts of knowledge.

The wistful look often in his eyes bespoke an understanding temperament.

Frank approximated Hamlet inasmvich as he too was a still water running deep, but he differed from the Dane in being the man of action as well as the man of thought. Frank was a formidable lineman; and unwary was the opponent who sought to gain yardage through Frank ' s sector. In studies Frank was again among the first-stringers, taking particular inter- est in Economics and Sociology. The text-book most diligently employed by him was the daily newspaper, thus enabling him to keep au courant of all happenings in the world of finance and of sports. Outside school Frank toiled as clerk in a drug-store, making an especial study of the vagaries of the consuming public.

In Junior he entered the Economics Academy and displayed such commendable ability in solving abstruse financial and economic problems that he was elected President of this Academy for his senior year.

Whenever the ball was given to Johnny, he took it places and no one seemed to know where it was, or how it got there, but the spectacular play was accomplished. Whenever our opponents decided to put a check on this diminutive half-back, they did not realize that they were sowing the wind and hence it was inevitable that they should reap the Manchester whirlwind.

As might be presumed, English was one of Dan ' s favorite subjects; his classmates can readily testify to the pleasure it gave to listen to the reading of one of his compositions.

C. was necessarily curtailed by this inability to take part in the activities at the college, he was determined to spread its prestige at home, and his labor and popularity in the Boston College Club of Lawrence resulted in his election to the presidency of that organization in senior year.

When he does speak, however, words of wisdom and wit are the result. His choice bits of epigrammatic philosophy and dry humor will always be remembered by his classmates. Jim ' s efficiency is easily proved not only by his scholastic standing but also by his success in the capacity of secretary of the Ethics Academy. His popularity throughout the four years was inevitable, since he possessed such likeable qualities and accomplished so much to make us all applaud and admire him. Nor will his success cease after graduation, for Jim has only begun his victories over the problems of life. W . . . • ' dm aini pirl hits ' ' ' . . . fhiisrs pills aroiiml ( iilf niiirsrs . . .

Yes indeed, — in the person of one Cam Durant, a serious believer in the teachings of that learned doctor. Cam did not devote all his time to matter and form and the end does not justify the means, but set out to follow the course set by Hippocrates. Long, unabating hours in the suffocating atmosphere of the Lab do not seem to have discouraged him a whit, but rather they intensified his interest in his work.

At graduation he expected to continue his studies at Tufts. We regret that Charlie ' s pre-med work barred him from participation in extra-curricular activi- ties at college. At his prep school, he was guard on the football team, played basketball, and boxed. Besides being class president there, he was also class poet. But at B.

There have been many good track managers at the Heights, but we unanimously select Ralph as the best. The Senior Class, as a whole, will remember him as a short, good-looking neatly-dressed student. But the track team, in particular, looked upon him as an industrious congenial manager. His task was difficult, yet he seemed to enjoy it. Perhaps this enjoyment sprang from the fact that wintry blasts found him clothed in furs and scarfs, while the track candidates shivered in more abbreviated apparel. Very few fellows in the class enjoyed school as much as Ralph. He was one of the first in the parking space in the morning, and one of the last to leave it at night.

Besides participating in football, hockey and track, Ike has been busy in many other extra-curricular activities. Surely he can claim to have been one of the most popular students at the Heights.

Jim has always been one of the best exponents of dry humor and laugh-provoking satire. In his own quiet way he would wax witty on this or that subject to the intense amusement of all near and sundry. Jim ' s forte in the athletic world was baseball and to see him scooping up grounders or knocking out liners with untiring energy and enthusiasm was no novel sight for us. Probably to clinch the fact that he was an all around athlete, Jim made the hockey varsity as a centre, where his tireless vigor made him a true master of the puck. A spirit of calm determination characterized his every endeavor. This attitude has unfailingly brought him victory in the past and augurs well for him in the future.

As a resident of Framingham, John was one of those students who knew the inconveniences and difficulties of commuting daily from a good distance, though he had the enviable privilege of using the family car for transportation. Athletics and social life both interested him greatly, but due to the pressure of a .science course, his activities in any form of diversion were necessarily restricted. Never- theless, he managed to squeeze in a game or two with the neighborhood team or with the members of the science division.

We will always remember him as a quiet, sincere, and generous friend. Though he was no brilliant conversationalist, on the other hand he was a sympathetic listener, and had a sincere appreciation of the real meaning of education.

Hannibal crossed the Alps and so did our studious friend Nick: however, Hannibal was intent upon conquests, while Nick ' s trip to Italy was essentially for the purpose of acquiring medical knowledge by first-hand observation. To continue the analogy begun above, Hanni- bal returned with slaves and treasures for the coffers; Nick came home with a briefcase of doctor ' s instruments, knives, pincers, scalpels, etc. Nick ' s conquests have not yet begun; but from the studiousness he showed in his classes at the College, we can conclude with a degree of certainty approaching the metaphysical, that his successes will be many and unusual. The pre-med course, with its many onerous duties, engrossed most of Nick ' s time; conse- quently he was not often to be seen in the post-class gatherings of less-burdened youths.

Walter, however, did not gain his stand- ing in the class of ' 34 because of the prestige of his ancestors, but won it through his own initiative. His broad shoulders and masculine physique could always be singled out in any gathering about the school; and even if he was not visible, still the heartiness of his laugh would betray his presence. Athletically inclined, he maintained a reputation in this regard among Woburnites, who knew him as a skillful boxer and an extremely fast man on his feet. One would venture to say of him at first sight that the energy spent in acquiring this skill was needless, for, if occasion should arise to thwart the unjust aggressor, his redoubtable appearance would undoubtedly suffice for bodily integrity.

Charlie, who hails from Dorchester, attended Holy Cross for three years until, realizing no doubt, the error of his ways, he transferred to B. C. The tendency of any individual changing over from a rival college is merely to assume a passive role both in and out of class; but not so with Charlie. In class he was continually cross-examining the professor, challenging any undemonstrated proposition or obscure reasoning. His dissertations were admired by all. Then, after classes, he immediately entered into extra-curricular activities, particularly track, and conducted himself with as much spirit as any four-year man. . . .

The outstanding feature of his scientific career was his remarkable consistency, wherein the diligent Irving differed from the ordinary run of mortals; for almost to a man, the students of ' 34 anathematize the science of molecules and atoms as the bane of collegiate life. Rumor hath it that Irving proposes to devote himself to his favorite sciences with a view toward serving the human race in the field of medicine. We have listened to him in a didactic moment and these words have come to mind, wholly descriptive of him, spoken by the Sacred Writer, The eye is not satisfied with seeing nor is the ear filled with hearing. w M . . . uijcnilcil ,1 foiithall pool . . billiard player . . . caiCl innke teiUiuid. hia ciijareUe holder . . .

But after much assiduous prying and questioning, we learned that, although John never said anything about it, he did, nevertheless, derive real benefit from his career at the Heights. He was a student, literally speaking, and spent much time at outside reading on curricular subjects, possessing a particular liking for literature and literary history.

In his pursuit of Philosophy, Joe applied himself with such vigor that his marks were always on a par with those of the leaders. As an Ethi- cian in the Ethics Academy, his power of discernment accounted for his prominence.

Brendan derived keen delight from his Sociology course, and we have his own words to the effect that he considered it the most engrossing study offered at the Heights. He had two hobbies over which he at times became ardently enthused — his daily trip from Natick and his occupation as printer ' s helper.

His knowledge of the books of both the Old and the New Testaments revealed keen devotion to a worthwhile hobby and an almost infallible memory.

Indeed he took his taxi duties seriously, and mornings brought his eager charges to the door of the Tower Building just prior to the jarring last bell, having skipped dexterously over river, hill and vale (when we say skipped, we speak figuratively and mean no disparage- ment to his vehicle). John was invariably accompanied by a fuming pipe, and he would rather forfeit half his kingdom than be bereft of this accessory.

Fame has crossed his path via the gridiron and his famous smoker appearances as a psuedo-doctor whose greatest delight seemed to be in extracting pigeons and whatnots from the insides of Hyena Dougan. But above all this lightness, Hago has a deep loyalty to his Alma Mater, as was manifest when he undertook to organize a Dorchester B. C. Club — a task which brought him many a grey hair.

Always in attendance at the activities of the College, Joe was rated as one of the most polished socialites in his group, though one would never have guessed this from his serious countenance while at the Heights. We have it from Joe himself that his only drawbacks at college were John Kelly and Jim Earls, his bodyguards, who could not be gainsaid in their pest ering for partners at a hand of bridge. _!__ . . . stirr.Hhc halonci al ? ,  '  .lAvi Mar- ket, Mahlni Siiinni ' . . . iirnr hn„ir hrluren 7 and I .

The fact that Bill was a member of the French Academy, a Fultonian, and a Sub Turri-ite affords some understanding of the energy and capabilities he manifested at the Heights. Tireless in the performance of his tasks, he was continuously bustling from this activity to that, from one classroom to another. For four years, he pursued this routine with ease and adeptness. He possessed a surprising capacity for hard work and, once he had accepted the responsibility of executing a task, it was as good as done, and done well.

Athlete, sportsman, theatrical enthusiast, and scholar, he displayed a versatility of knowledge and interests that made him a guaranty against boredom at any time. In football, he played end, a clever and dependable worker, and starred in many thrilling battles by his nonchalant reception of a forward pass. In non-collegiate baseball he dug many a throw out of the dirt at first base and, together with his batting, conducted himself in a manner worthy of a Gehrig or a Foxx. Yet he was not inclined athletically only, for his scholastic achievements and the culture gained from extensive reading gave him a well-rounded education.

And believe it or not, the next day he got lost on the street cars on the way to school ! No one would have considered him an aimless wanderer if he had seen him at the college. Jiggs distinguished himself in many ways at the Heights. His first outstanding accomplishment was the super- vision of the Dick Whittington ' production, during our junior year. Then he was appointed chairman of the Philomatheia Ball, and the cooperation he received is a true manifestation of his popularity with his classmates.

To COME over the road from Woburn every morning, enter class with a keen and avid mind, and become embroiled in heated discussions on sports and politics between classes, is no easy task. Yet Jerry has managed to do this and to account himself surprisingly well. Jerry took part in all of ' 34 ' s vital activities but he carried on so unobtrusively that one was apt to forget that he was present. Not a penetrative genius type of student, so wrapped up in theoretical speculation as not to have time for sharing the interests of those with whom he associated, Jerry, nevertheless, could always give an account of a ready intellect. His four years at the Heights were spent day by day in generous, enthusiastic, intelligent. Christian fellowship. . . .

Frank Lyons and Gussie were both well known at the Heights, and to Newton and Watertown boys in particular. Gussie, you see, was a Buick touring car of ancient vintage. With five on the cushions, Gus ' ' was rather short on wind. But, nevertheless, morning after morning, when all other transportation to the Heights had failed, Frank, at the wheel of Gussie, was a doubly welcome sight. No doubt it was Frank ' s Irish wit which prompted him to suggest a trip to New York and the Fordham game via the aid of Gus. Such dry humor, coupled with a truly keen intellect, made verbal duels with faculty and student alike a pleasant diversion for Frank. In closing, let it be said that, although he argued vocifer- ously, he never took himself or anything else more seriously than it deserved. W . . . haskelbalt . . . ohjn-l.s In ercrythimj .

From earliest years a hunter and a yachtsman, Westy is known as a real old-timer in both sports. Yet the fine arts have also gifted him, for he is an artist with numerous fine contributions to the Sub TuRRi to his credit.

A true litterateur, and, at the same time, a most practical- minded gentleman, he played the stock market wisely and was always favored with good fortune. Investigator Pecora overlooked him only because the huge profits he reaped were confined to paper. Indeed, we feel that George could make a substantial living in the capacity of investment advisor. However, George ' s present ambitions are to attend Harvard Business School and to own a new Buick.

For his instinctive knowledge of the sciences, together with earnest application, point to his future as a most eminent physician. John ' s talents are not limited to the sciences, as may be ascertained by the fact that he is an ardent classicist and a capable linguist. His easy-going, unperturbed manner, together with his aptitude for droll witticisms, should undoubtedly assure his popularity with the world at large. These qualities also stand him in good stead in solving a cross-word puzzle, at which pastime he is without equal.

Art and Bob McQuilland were inseparable, the closest companions from pre-school days, sharing every interest together ever afterward. Yet those who knew Art well can tell you that he was never backward at college in developing those abilities which marked him as an honor student in the class. Study for him was a serious task, and he attacked it conscientiously. He appreciated the value of extra-curricular activi- ties.

In our personal experience of four years association with him we have never heard him say anything derogatory about a student at the college.

Ed ' s name never fails to conjure up for us at least one striking quality, tenacity of purpose. For to journey to the Heights from Nashua, N.

In class Ed was a keen listener, believing that since the Lord endowed him with two ears and only one mouth. He mu.st have intended him to use the former more. Ed believes that his future course lies in legal channels and in the ocean of writs. We are confident that one day he will be a capable barrister. For his belief is that not the evidence but the presentation of a case determines the decision.

Tom was known to his classmates as Red, the possessor of undulating, fiery locks. We cannot adequately describe their color, however, for his hair is a peculiar and unique red. Red himself did not belie this natural indicator of his nature in his disposition or his actions, for he was a congenial and industrious chap. This fact will be upheld by those who worked with him putting up the stadium. Many an hour passed, many a heavy bead of sweat dropped from his forehead as one of those stalwarts who helped erect the stands on Alumni Field. In scholastic endeavor Tom lived up to his resolve to maintain a high stand- ard. He was, moreover, always alert and up-to-the-minute on current events, and his in- quisitive mind was ever seeking the solution of the world ' s economical and sociological problems.

To SEE Bobby in the classroom or leisurely strolling along the corridors, one would scarcely have realized that this medium-sized, you thful-looking chap was a halfback with a reputation on the victorious eleven of ' 34. But such he was: and not only did the football team benefit by smiling Bobby ' s plays, but also the entire Class of ' 34 was conscious of the part he played in the building up of its reputation. He was very conscientious about his football, but after witnessing his interest in Fr. Corrigan ' s class, we expect someday to pick up a tome on sociology written by Bobby himself. They tell us that the essentials of intelligence consists in the power to perceive relations. Applying this norm both to class and to gridiron, we have sound reason for guaranteeing Bob ' s future; for he was heads up on the field and alert for weak spots in philosophical theories. n . . .

In this role we all know and remember him, despite the fact that an unfortunate injury impeded his performances during the past two years. Nevertheless, his earnest and hopeful efforts to regain his previous form won gen- uine praise from everyone. To scholastic pursuits Pasky devoted himself most assidu- ously, never allowing interference with his progress. Once outside the pale of classroom walls, Pasky ' s cheerful and even disposition counterbalanced his scholastic seriousness to resvdt in the formation of a most dexterous young man. When Pasky sets out to face various mundane problems, he should feel confident of victory, being well equipped to shatter world ' s records along the track of life. W m . . .

During his spare time, in which he refrained from his witty retorts and banter, he could be seen setting a lightning pace around the college track. He also took part in the sodality plays and here he tramped the boards with the gusto of a Barrymore. Duke, in fact, often took it upon himself to assume the role of lecturer on hi.strionic technique to his multitude of friends. In his scholastic endeavors, Duke re- vealed a natural talent for laboratory work, as he completed one chemistry experiment after another with neatness and dispatch.

There were very few fellows in the class who came to town and attended as many social functions as Ed did. Not only did he support B. C. activities, but also those of B.

At college Joe confined his peregrinations to the campus, journeying daily to and from Lowell. All studies weighed on him and he believed in deriving all the benefit he could from his courses.

Yet wherever it is, it must be a municipality of some pretensions, for Bill flaunts to all his credentials as a call-fireman. The clanging of a bell seems to have a violent reaction upon his emotions and even we here at the Heights have witnessed his frantic flounderings and mad dashes in the classroom when the school bell jangles.

Always ambitious, he was not content to idle away what spare time he had, but emjiloyed it to financial advantage in driving a taxi-cab in that busy metropolis, Woburn. Then came the depression. And where did we find Bill? In the trenches of Alumni field, where he did his part in the building of the stadium.

In the first place, he was a pre-med student, which, perhaps, tells us more of value about him than any other one fact. Not only did he labor at concoctions in the laboratory, but he also mixed sodas in a drug store. His zeal for bridge was intensive, but not inferior to his love for the dance. Both pastimes brought him a host of friends and admirers. To develop his natatorial abilities, John was a constant devotee of the Curtis Hall swimming pool, where he entered into exhibi- tions of grace and skill with his constant companion. Jack Saunders.

In the company of his chums, Roger was apt to drift into the field of jest, when his sharp jibes drew appreciative laughter from attentive listeners. Together with his bosom friend, Ray Funchion, he often sat in seance discussing their escapades about Danvers and their hazardous trips with the travelling baseball team of clowns.

As a probing scientist in the laboratory or as an inquiring philosopher in the lecture hall, John parries all problems adroitly and, with a thrust, destroys them all. Always active, but not blatantly so, always propounding clever epigrams, yet with a reticence which prevented ennui, it is obvious that John possesses an equality of traits. Despite his long hours in the laboratory and his work after school, John gladly granted his literary ability (and no mean writer is he) to the editorial staff of the Junior Pic.

During the football games i)layed on the home gridiron, Tom was one of the favored few who carefully scrutinized tickets, directing their holders to the stands with a cheery, friendly talutation. He could converse glibly on plays and players, and had a real intuition for picking winning teams before the games. We have not learned, however, whether he capitalized on shis asset. However, it was on the basketball court and on the baseball diamond that Tom made his mark. In interclass baseball competition, he was often an instrumental factor in the victory of his sectional team. There were many evenings during the basketball season when Tom laid aside his books in order to chalk up another victory for the home team. We are confident that only such an important activity as this would compel him to forsake an evening of revelry in the labyrinths of psychology. m w X . . . basketball player . . . did anyone crer see him worry? . . . waited for ride for hours . . . then finally walked . . . circida- lion on Heights . . . sent copies to everyone.

It is a sociological principle that adaption to groups is a means to success. In Jerry we have this principle carried out in the concrete. Making and keeping new acquaintances is his true forte, and members of the fair sex were no exceptions while he was at college. Though the highly-complex life of the city had a great appeal for Jerry, still his sojourn at Jackson, N. H., the home of the fighting gridsters, had other attractions for him. The smell of pigskin often made Jerry snort while waiting for practice, but after it was over he returned to his social haunts with relish. In Natick he sported his gridiron ability faithfully, and his town is proud of him. To say that Jerry is lackadaisical is false, but to say he is nonchalant is most appro- priate, for he was right at home under any circumstances.

Bill and his Ford, one of the cur- iosities at the Heights, were as inseparable as Mary and her little lamb. This car has taxied more fair damsels to dances, athletic events, and theatres than almost any other vehicle at the college, disproving the axiom that success in studies and social life is impossible. His enthusiastic support of every type of college affair made him a living personification of school spirit. On the Fordham trip no one had a better time than Bill, and he still mentions the glamor of the Big City with characteristic enthusiasm.

No matter how inclement and cold the weather, Jim never wore a hat or a coat, but was sufEcientlv warm as long as he had his black fur-lined gloves. mw n . . . volunteered to play Hamlet . . . sang Pagliacei at first dramatics production in senior . . . two days after getting over laryn- gitis . . . entertained with The Face on the Barroom Floor before the Christmas holt- -!___ , Iht Uii © $ui Uxvx Gerard Alexis Weidman BeUarmine Society, 1.

M Jerry distinguished himself in many ways among his classmates, but in one way in particu- lar did he see to it that he would not be easily forgotten by those with whom he came in contact. He was always impressive because of his ringing laughter, which would drive all gloom from even the saddest of bosoms. Eminently, he was a laugher at life; co-eminently, he was a philosopher and a capable musician. He could take most any philosophical statement and argue it intelligently. As a musician he served four years in the band and willingly gave his services to arouse enthusiasm and spirit at all class functions. His gay outlook upon life, his knowledge of philosophy, and his unselfish attitude should form for him many lasting friends. . . . worked for the General Electric . . .flute player . . . mania for asking questions . . . master of dialects . . . perpetual wearer of knickers.

That seems to be the slogan of those hardy souls who pound the boards and cinders of the track, and grind out assignments in pre-med. Ed ' s task was not easy, but track work gave him endurance; the lunch counter added to his sense of humor and the successful completion of pre-med enough to give him the right to be justly proud of a good job well done. These were the factors in his college career that were brought to bear on our Doctor in the Rough, and what better combination of elements could assure the success of any man? The influence of work, sport, humor and knowledge have adequately equipped a well trained college man for his life work. w . — L. s .I-._ . . . sat in the last row in Senior B . . . is that where all the noise came from? ... a track fan . . . used to work out on the boards daily . . . worked in the lunch room.

John is the pride and joy of Charlestown, but the bane of any professor who might slip up in a lesson. He has always been a devotee of the classics and can belch forth quotations on the spur of the moment. If there was a cjuestion for discussion, John would take either side and defend it. He was just an old sophist, but all in fun. He posses sed a smile as contagious as the measles and, not lacking a keen sense of humor, was an incurable practical joker. John intends to enter the field of pedagogy after graduation and, when he has attained his destined fame as a .spreader of culture and learning (and sunshine), we can only say I told you so. . . .

Al is distinctively unique among his classmates inasmuch as two cities can claim him as their own. When Al first came to the Heights, he travelled over from Somerville; soon he heard the siren call of Maiden and yielded. Now he is adding lustre to the latter city and, as secretary of the Maiden B. C. Club, keeps that organization in the limelight. Although Al took no active part in sports at the Heights, he showed a valuable knowledge of the theoreti- cal side of athletics. Yet his classmates all know him as a quiet, soft-spoken, but determined youth. We may also add the epithet fearlessness, for Al elected to undergo the excruciating mental torments of Calculus in his senior year. m _ . . . . pugilistic champ of Junior B . . . what a left! . . . ask John Whelan . . . planned to be a fireman . . .

Tom had spent a year under the Tower before we entered as freshmen, but left at the end of his first year to work. He returned again and entered sophomore as a member of the ilhis- trious Class of ' 34. It was not long before we felt his presence among us. Tom approached all subjects in the curriculum with determination and fervor, but evidenced singular predilection for languages. He was an honor student in French, able to discourse intelligently in French on subjects which most of us would hesitate to introduce in English. Although Tom may not be as proficient as the man who could say yes in ten different langugages, he is a controversialist in two, for besides distinguishing himself as a French Academician, he was a leading member of the Ethics Academy. m . . . vacations at Scitiiate . . . could fre- quently he found in the Library . . . could never be accused of making too mnch noise.

To LOOK at Jack one would not come to the immediate conclusion that this striking youth is energetic and enterprising. However, appearances to the contrary, Jack is essen- tially a hard worker. It has been bruited about that he is a capable shoe-salesman, and more than competent in fitting the feminine foot. He establishes his own custom in the line of footwear by whittling down many a sahot by mincing blithely o ' er cornmealed floors of suburban ballrooms, particularly Nuttings. Jack ' s advent is always harbingered by a looming rattle which is nothing more nor less than his archaic Flivver heaving lugubriously into sight. We would appraise the car at considerable worth, as there is a demand for such an- tiques by Henry Ford and Hollywood prop-men. The journey over to the Heights must have been extremely tiring to Jack, for he could always be found between classes lolling supinely on the wall-backed benches in the lower rotunda. 1 mm . . .famous expression, Close that win- dow, Boehner . . . came to B.

Kelly Manager of Tennis m (he I934®su6fum Betinite Program Under the leadership of the Veiy Reverend Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., and the direction of Reverend Francis V. Sullivan, S.J., Boston College athletics have been given a very healthful impetus. Football at Alumni Field has acquired a new and becoming dignity and our supporters have had the opportunity of seeing our team in its proper environment. The Class of 1934 will not soon forget their last Holy Cross game when their own members, Maloney, Freitas, Tosi, Killelea et als, absolutely dominated a powerful but futile opponent. The Stadium is a reality, thanks to Father Gallagher ' s courage and vision. There are two needs before us. First, a practice field, so that the turf on Alumni Field may be better for the actual games. The parking space in the rear of the Science Building will be filled in to make this possible. When this is done, we will have but one further want — a locker room or field house.. AVhen conditions permit the College to build again, this may be supplied by setting apart the first floor of the new building for athletic purposes. By placing this proposed new building parallel to College Road, it could be built into the hill over the running track in such a way that, without interference with its primary purpose, a first floor would be available, of sufficient height for track and baseball practice; lockers would no longer be at a premium; there would be ample supply room space and room for Athletic Associa- tion offices, medical and rubbing rooms, and everything else necessary to the carry- ing on of a model college athletic program. By combining this proposed locker room or gymnasium with a class building there would be no loss of land, a fast approaching problem ; there would be two needed buildings under one roof, — a saving of money, — and with the new structure in conformity with the other buildings, there would be no conflict with the architectural beauty of the College group. , At the present writing this may seem a most ambitious program, but under Father Gallagher we have .seen great achievement and we may be permitted to anti- cipate with confidence further developments during his administration.

B-0-S-T-O-N Boston, Boston, Boston. itit n imsvAtxitn The Class of 1934 was outstanding in the field of foot- ball becau se it played the game as it should be played- - hard, clean, with the spirit to win. The spirit to win in the game of life leads one to suc- cess in his field of endeavor. So it is on the football field. You must have the spirit to win to be successful. The season of 1933 had to be successful with such a galaxy of athletes from the Class of 1934 on the squad. Look at the roster: CAPTAIN FRANK MALONEY— outstanding as a leader and a player. His leadership was greatly responsible for our successful 33 season. JOHNNY FREITAS— a real triple threat— the best in the East — Boston College immortal. FLAVE TOSI — one of Boston College ' s greatest ends. JOHNNY DOUGAN — small in stature but had fight, spirit, and determination. TOM BLAKE — fast and shifty; remember his rurming in the Holy Cross game? GREG SULLIVAN — his determination and spirit made him our leading center. LOLT MLTSCO — although hampered by a .severe injury, he was one of the heroes of the Holy Cross game — a man ' s man. JOE KILLELEA — the best little end we have ever .seen play football. JOHN O ' LALOR — although handicapped by injuries, his perseverance always carried him back to the first team. GERRY SLAMIN — the rock of Gibralter on our frontier. STAN JUNDZIL — a real end when physically right. ED KELLY — his toe often brought us victory — the ideal student athlete. BOBBY OTT — perseverance and determination personified. He always did his job. JOPj ORLOSKY — a dependable back. Could kick, pass, and run equally well. IKE EZMUNT — the smartest of tackles. Proved that brains can surmount brawn. FRANK DONOHUE — a hard worker — fought his way to the top — a rugged tackle. PAT FORD — our smallest guard, but our best blocker. JIGGS LILLIS — a great running back — our Eddy Britt — his disposition would be an asset to any football squad. RAY HARRINGTON — a severe injury robbed us of this great half-back for the 1933 season. Boston College wants men of his type — a fine athlete and a true gentleman. DAN SULLIVAN — accomiilished what he set out to have — the best managerial staff we have ever had. May our future managers equal his accomplishments. To you of 1934 I extend my sincere best wishes for success. Live your future lives as you have played your game of football — hard, clean, and with the spirit to win. If you do this, your success is assured.

Can, O Laloi, Maloney {Captain), Foid, Fieilas, Killelea 351 c tht I954@snftfunt s For our successful season it is a dilemma whether to praise more our Miracle Worker McKenney or the greatest group of college football men in the world. That they deserve more glory than they will ever receive is the cold truth, but from those who have watched both parties under fire they will receive much greater praise and for years to come the merits of the squad and coaches of 1933 will be extolled. It was our genial coach ' s trying task to replace his entire forward wall from tackle to tackle, the most important sector of his team, and to do this he had the weakest material in years to draw from. There were no All-American players and no keystone man to plan his attack around. Coach Joe ' s face nearly lost its smile when he saw his midget backfield, five of whom were not 160 pounds in weight, and none who tipped the Fairbanks over 17.5, cavorting on the greensward. He realized that it would take strategy and extremely good blocking to get these ball-toting mites into the open. From this inauspicious beginning he must develop a well-oiled, .smoothly- working machine to compete with teams in a .schedule completely devoid of soft spots. To add to his misfortunes, more injuries hampered him this year than in any other year during his coaching career. An appropriate word might here be spoken for Ray Harrington and Bill Boehner in consolation for the injuries which made them inactive and in a])preciation for the help they were in coaching and advisory capaci- ties which did much to make the season a success. To Father Frank Sullivan, a great slice of the success is due, because of his intense interest and genuine enthusiasm which he was able to instill into the under- graduates to support their team and his happy faculty of keeping harmony in the ranks of the squad. John Curley deserves congratulations for his own quiet work in arranging a schedule and as our Good-Will Ambassador. Under his regime B. C. is due for national renown in the sports world. Finally the glory due to the squad for their deeds on the field, the recitation of the season which follows will, in a small way, praise them; but as gentlemen, only one who has been in close contact with each man can appreciate their true worth m. € the 1934 ®$n6f urn B The season opened by reviving a rivalry which had Iain dormant for more than twenty years. St. Anselm ' s return to intercol- legiate competition was marked by a plucky team whose stub- born defense kept the Eagle from soaring early. But our Eagle suddenly found himself, and with a last period spurt that accounted for three touchdowns, he easily tipped over the Manchester Bear- cats. The game ' s big thrills were supplied by Tom Blake ' s hard running and Johnny Frietas ' beautiful forty-yard drop-kick for a field goal. Captain Frank Maloney and Johnny Dougan were immense as blocking backs. Bobby Ott became high scorer when he stepped fancily for two touchdowns. BOSTON COLLEGE 37— LOYOLA The Eagle swooped into the stadium for the second time this year and found Tony Comerford ' s Loyola Greyhounds easy pickings. Their valiant team was so completely outclassed by our boys that they gained but thirty yards all day in comparison to our ,S36, even though our first team left the game in the first period. Every man on the bench, forty-six in all, saw action. To pick individual stars is difBcult, but Blake, Dougan and Lillis each contributed a touchdown and kept the game lively with long runs. .John Freitas Quarterback 1. Freitas going through left tackle against Villanova. 3,53 € (he 1934®5uHut« Our first major contest was against the strongest eleven our southern rivals have sent north in ten years, hence it was only with the greatest difficulty that we were able to keep our slate unsmirched and for the third consecutive year to scratch out a one-touchdown win. It was a hard and fast game replete with thrills from the opening kick-off to the final whistle. Frequent fumbling and consistent ground- gaining kept the teams traveling up and down the field, with each outfit threatening to score at any moment. Tom Blake won the honor of scoring the touchdown when he smashed across from Centre ' s three-yard line. The Maroon and Gold line on this occasion rose to the highest peak of the day and sliced the Ken- tuckians so cleanly that not a hand touched Tom. The line worked more as a unit both on offense and defense than previously this season and showed promise of greatness. Tosi, as usual, was outstanding. Killelea, Ezmunt, O ' Lalor and Sullivan featured in resounding tackles. Johnny Dougan ' s fine line plunging and Freitas ' superb kicking were instrumental in keeping the Eagle ' s goal-line inviolate.

After battling a huge battering Ford- ham eleven to a standstill three periods, McKenney ' sval- iants, bruised and tired, allowed the Rams to smash their way to victory. The score in no way indicates the battle put up by the Eagles. Outweighed and out- experienced but not outfought, the boys appeared capable of overcoming these tremendous odds — but lack of reserves told the story and three touchdowns in the last ten minutes made the final score look as though the game had been a rout. The B. C. defense had the far-famed Notre Dame style of attack checked for three periods, due to Tosi ' s All-American brand of play, to the slashing type of game exhibited by Killelea, Ezmunt and Couhig, and to the ability of Sulli- van and Maloney to diagnose and smother plays at their origin.

The Maroon and Gold reserves, rising to the occasion, outplayed and vanquished the intowners. With every man on the squad seeing action, many showed great promise, especially Bobby Ott, whose brilliant play- ing won him a starting position in the rest of the season ' s games, and Paul Flaherty, whose smart quarterbacking and accuracy in forward passing completely dom- inated the B. C. attack. Flaherty scored one touchdown and tossed long passes to Anderson, Jundzil and Avery for three more. Ramsey, Jundzil and Lillis shone defensively, and Jiggs was also the running star on several occasions. BOSTON COLLEGE 39— GEORGETOWN Next came the Georgetown rout, a good warm up for the season ' s climax. Again the shock troops appeared and kept piling up the scores with amazing rapidity. The surprisingly feeble hill-toppers could neither advance against nor check the Boston College attack. Johnny Dougan ' s hard running was rewarded with two line-crashing touchdowns. Captain Maloney, Hal Ramsey and Greg Sullivan played smart, heads-up football, each recovering fumbles which led to scores. The toes of Ed Kelley and Bobby Ott accounted for the conversions. tilt 1934@snfifutn Still flying high, undefeated, untied and unscored on in its own stadium the Eagle astounded the football world by skinning the highly favored illanova Wildcat. It was the first Boston victory over the Mainliners in seven years and Villanova ' s first whitewash since 1930. It is sufficient praise for our defense to say that they blanked one of the highest scoring teams in the country when it was at its peak. McKenney, the defense strate- gist, devised a way to stop those high scoring Villanova backs and the superb B. C. line carried out his orders and were never in extreme danger, although danger was ever imminent. Tosi, the outstanding man on the field, lived up to his AU-American reputation and not an inch was gained around his flank all day. He, most of all, was responsible for checking the high-scoring Randour. Tosi ' s spine- cracking tackle of Randour in the first quarter caused a fumble which Ed Kelly quickly converted into a field goal to give B. C. an early lead. The touchdown was due to a blocked kick by Ike Ezmunt, then Ott with a Freitas pass squirmed to the 15-yard marker, and the famous Freitas-to-Maloney pass scored. Maloney and Freitas were sensational throughout the battle. Sullivan played the game of his life. Ezmunt, Ott and Dougan were constantly brilliant.

C. outfit since the championship ' 28 team. Johnny Freitas, guiding genius of the last three years, showed himself to be the keyman of the B. C. attack and defense. Of all his accomplishments, the Green Terrors will curse mostly his golden toe; for it was this weapon, more than anything else, which kept them with their backs to the wall. Four times he kicked the Eagle out of danger and thrice codiii cornered the oval on approximately the three-yard line. The first score for Boston followed a long pass from Freitas to Tosi that advanced the ball to the 5-yard line, where Maloney and Ott opened an avenue for Driscoll to scamper through. Shep- lierd and Dunn were constant threats, but the exceptional playing of Tosi and Killelea on the flanks, and of Sullivan, Slamin, and Ezmunt in the line, prevented any fancy running by them. However, Shepherd spoiled a fine record, scoring the first point against Boston College in the stadium this year. Maloney, as usual, shone both oft ' ensively and defensively.

Western Maryland. the l934@suHui:n Stanley Jundzil End Frank DoNAnrn Tackle The crowning glory of any Boston College football season, a victory over Holy Cross, was this year doubly sweet, for it was the first triumph in five years and the Eagle ' s scream told vengeance long awaited and mag- nificently achieved over the best Crusader team in history. To the winner went the mythical N. E. championship and the stamp of I ' ecognition as one of the out- standing elevens in the country. Tremendously outweighed by a gigantic Purple rushline, the ]5oston College eleven, smarter, more alert, and more aggressive under the insjjiring leadership of their captain and coach, outplayed, outfought, and outscored a heavily favored Crusader to bring a successful season to a close. Whether calling plays, kick- ing, running or passing, Freitas play was phenomenal. The two Boston touchdowns each a play of beauty, were extremely well executed. The first baffled not only H. C. but the entire attendance. Maloney ' s 40-yard run with an intercepted pass, and Freitas fake drop-kick which developed into a .S-yard pass to Killelea advancing the ball to the eight-yard line led up to the most spectacular play of the year — Joe Killelea ' s now famous end-around run for a touchdown. The H. C. touchdown was due entirely to the line smashing of Britt, and Harvey ' s conversion put the Wor- cesterites ahead at the half. The B. C. defense rose time and again to thwart any Holy Cross threat and, with the enemy in a state of confusion, Freitas ' master- minding and accurate passing again caused the Crusader grief. Faking an end run which drew the secondary out of position, and still on the run, he hurled a S-yard pass to the uncovered Furbush who fell across the last stripe with the winning touchdown. Tosi ' s final game was his greatest and his play was highly praised by experts who came to see him in action. Every senior saw action and each deserves great credit, especially Maloney and Ott whose alertness for interceptions and in diagnosing plays made them the main-.stays on defense.

Such sterling backs as Johnny Freitas, Johnny Dougan, Jiggs Lillis, Bobby Ott, Frank Maloney, Bill Carr, Ed Kelly, and Bill Stapleton; and such burly linemen as Tom Burns, Dave Couhig, Maurice Kelly, Greg Sullivan, Ike Ezmunt, Stan Jundzil, and Frank Noonan lightened the tasks of Coaches Bill Kelleher and Pete Herman. The sparkling array of stars, without any contact work and, as yet, ununified, lost a close, hard-fought, and spectacular game to the St. John ' s Prep Eleven by a 13-9 count. However, the team learned many valuable lessons in this encounter, and was never defeated again. During the long intervals in the abbreviated schedule, the fearless freshmen time and again battled long and furiously against the varsity, absorbing punish- ment, but making their presence felt, and all the while developing their offense and defense into a smoothly-working machine to the chagrin of the Varsity.

Followed the glorious climax to the season, — the first Boston College Freshman Team ever to defeat a Holy Cross Freshman aggregation. Disregarding the ex- cellent record set up by the strong Crusader, the Eaglet played a hair-raising game under the mas- terful guiding of Freitas, who cleverly assorted his aerial attack with running plays and kept the Purple Horde bewildered throughout the chilly afternoon. Two long passes from Freitas to Maloney and Jundzil for scores took the starch out of the Holy Cross defense, allowing Lillis, Ott, Dougan, and Maloney to run wild to the discomfiture of the Mt. St. James boys. After this tasty dish, the B.C. outfit polished off a successful season by clawing up Coburn Classical School, 19-6. In this encounter, Tom Blake was the running star, while Dave Couhig and Tom Burns were the stalwarts on the frontier. .I .Mi:s 1.11, Iluljbad SOPHOMORE The annual Catholic University game develope d into a real battle and the stul born Bergman-coached product kept the Eagle on its toes until late in the sec- ond half, when B. C. clicked nicely and clinched the decision, 27-6. Thencame Cav with his usual, fast-playing eleven. After a fierce battle Fordham returned to New- York with a O-O victory, but fully convinced that it had been earned. Next, Villan- ova, with its heralded Notre Dame attack, nosed out a 12-6 victory over a bewildered Eagle. Then Marquette ' s great Golden Avalanche, led by Sisk, Ronzani and Elliot, in a game replete with thrills, was only able to eke out a 7-0 victory. The .score was a great tribute to our boys who spent most of the afternoon successfully holding Big Train Sisk in check. Regaining our winning stride, we downed the Hoyas from Georgetown in one of the biggest upsets of the year. A supremely confident squad from the Capitol City, to its surprise and chagrin, was entirely unable to cope with the varied attack of the Boston boys and, under the terrific strain, went completely to pieces, allowing the B. C. backs to roam at will. Then came the trip to Baltimore. B. C. endeared itself to the hearts of the Southerners when it out-fought a great Western Mary- land team to gain a 19-13 victory. Following this, the South sent up one of the greatest teams below the Mason-Dixon line, a colorful band from Center college, which, after a terrific struggle, lo.st to the Eagle, 6-0.

The visitors won for themselves a permanent place on the Eagle ' s schedule and in the minds of the Boston football enthusiasts. Our annual pre-Cross game and city championship encounter with the B. U. Terrier was a romp for the Eagles. Climaxing the season was the never-to-be- forgotten Holy Cross game in the Harvard stadium. The power and thrilling play of the entire Eagle eleven was the feature of the annual clash. B. C. led until the final minutes when O ' Connell of Holy Cross broke away and scored the tying touchdown which, coupled with the point after, gave the Crusaders a 7-6 victory. JUNIOR The year 1932 dawned on a new era in Boston College football with sports re- turning to their proper place in the shadow of our Gothic spires and the cosy new stadium being dedicated with impressive ceremonies. Dignitaries of Church and State, over a large Eastern radio hook-up, in glowing terms praised the progress of our College in both the schola.stic and sports world, so inspiring our eleven that they buried Loyola of Baltimore in the new soil, 20-0. Out of the South, Kentucky sent a fighting Center aggregation to do battle with us. Before a crowded stadium, for sixty thrill-packed minutes, the Blue Grass boys kept the Eagle talons from striking, but, as the time limit drew near, Johnny Freitas ' alertness found the praying Colonels dozing in their supplications, and late in the final quarter The Dancing Master scampered 60 yards for the lone score and winning tally. Then came a trip to Mil- waukee for our squad, which, wearied by the long, tiresome journey, dropped a 13-0 decision to a superb Marquette University eleven. The next week Cav brought his last and greatest team to the Heights and, after a spectacular battle of defenses, Ed Kelly put in his bid for Ail- American honors, earning a niche among the immortals in the Boston College hall of fame when, with his educated toe, he coolly 366 Paul Donohue Tackle Robert Curran Halfback (he I03 @)$n6furn place-kicked B.

Still undefeated in the new stadium, the Eagle met the Wild- cat from Villanova and, after a fine start, was vanquished by the Notre Dame style of attack with the score 20-9. The tired Mc- Kenney men were unable to hold Whitey Randour in check. Still completely exhausted by the difficult schedule, the boys rolled up 20 points against tricky Western Maryland only to tire and have the Terrors tie the game at 20-20. Suffi- ciently revived, the Eagle slaughtered B. U., 21-6. Finishing the season at Fitton Field at AVorcester, on a day more fitted for Esquimaux than football enthusiasts, the Eagle out-fought and out-played the Crusader throughout a see-saw affair but the fates allowed us nothing better than a scoreless tie which, in itself, was a major upset.

Then, too, the long hard winter has made our training field unplayable to date. Both of these reasons mean but one thing, — a longer season in- doors and, in consequence, a shorter and less advantageous preparatory training. But as for the coming season itself, everything looks highly favorable. We ' ll miss those who have graduated, especially Jim Crowley and Duke Mclntyre, but we have Kelly and Ready behind the plate, and Duffy, Lane, Galhgan, and Marso for the hurling department. With Captain Kittredge, Freitas, Concannon, and Maiocca in the infield, Boehner, Curran, Pagliuca, and Shea for outfield berths, all of whom are a great bunch of sluggers, everything augurs for a successful season on the diamond. As can be seen by the names above, all the baseball team of 1934 depends upon is — the Class of ' 34! It will be their team this year, and as they came through in football this past season, I know they will be equally dependable on the diamond this spring.

A SPRING PRACTICE 373 the 1934 ©SUB turn Ed Kelly Catcher The largest squad to be recorded in the ar- chives of the College answered the call of Coach McCrehan. After several cuts, he worked with twenty-two men un- t il he found the smooth- est nine, and these he polished up for the open- ing game with North- eastern. His squad consisted of five strong pitchers: Ted Galligan, Harry Lane, Bob Duffy, Charlie Callahan, and Charlie Marso; capable catchers were Tim Ready, John Barrett, and Ed Kelly; infielders. Captain Charlie Kittredge, George IVIaiocca, Johnny Freitas, Dave Concannon, Frank O ' Flaherty, and George Mahoney; outfielders. Bill Boehner, Bob Curran, Jerry Pagliuca, and John Terry. With the candidates thus reduced to manageable proportions, Cheese was able to settle down to the serious business of building up his attack and defense. All things considered, this Boston College Team was one of the greatest in years. Coach McCrehan said that his replacements were such as make a coach ' s life sweet. With such fielders as Kittredge, who was the smoothest fielding first-sacker in college ranks, Freitas, and Concannon, with the slugging power possessed by Curran, Boehner, and Pagliuca, and the hurling department amply stocked, it was difBcult to see how the season could be anything but successful. As we go to press, we are able to account for only two games, the opener against Northeastern and the Father ' s Day .struggle with Fordham. In both of these encounters our expectations were completely realized. The College slugged out a 10-6 victory over Northeastern behind the stellar pitching of Duffy and Callahan, abetted by the hitting of Ready, Concannon, and Freitas. Then, again.st an ad- mittedly superb Fordham Ram, fresh from a victory over Yale and bucking its way to a national championship, came the acid test, which proved, beyond the shadow of a doubt, the true greatness of the Maroon and Gold outfit. The 8-7 victory over the New orkers certainly a marvelous feat, could be attributed to the left arm of Marso and the ringing bats of Freitas, Pagliuca, Kittredge, Ready, and Curran in a game throughout which the Boston team held complete sway. After viewing such positive proof, we all predicted a banner baseball season for 1934 and possibly an Eastern championship. fht l934@s«Huut Johnny Frbitas Secoiid Base K FRESHMAN The largest Fresh- man Class ever to ma- triculate at the Heights must necessarily have in- cluded in its roll-call many athletes destined for greatness. Such was the case when the base- ball squad of the Class of 1934 reported to the newly-appointed coach, Fred Moncewicz (a for- mer than whomer) . Names such as Freitas and Blake, former Huntington School diamond stars, Greg Sullivan and Ray Fun- chion from St. John ' s Prep, Bobby Ott, Jim Fallon, George McLaughlin, and Johnny Long of B. C. High fame. Bernie Moynahan, a New York State star, Ray Harrington from St. Anselm ' s, and Roger Shea from Maiden, answered the call of the willow and horse-hide to further the fame of old B. C. Under the adverse conditions of inclement weather and field reconstruction, the freshman practice sessions often concluded without having been beneficial to the squad, and so it was that the season which followed was not outstandingly success- ful. . Due to extremely good early-season hurling by George McLaughhn and tmiely hitting by short-stop Freitas, who was succeeded by Johnny Dougan, the yearlings defeated Wentworth and followed up by sinking the New Hampshire Plebes. How- ever, lack of fielding practice told on the team and despite fine hurling by McLaughlin and Moy- nahan, the ragged sup- port which they received allowed Andover, Boston University, St. John ' s Prep, and the Dart- mouth Junior Varsity to overpower us, one after the other. During these encounter s, Jim Fallon, Roger Shea, and Ray Jerry Pagliuc. , . , , , Left Field ' Funchion showed tnem- iP Nl tht 1934 (@)$u6 turn (IH(,L .M IOCCA Third jhsc BS selves to be wicked men with the willow, and each had an enviable batting average. Keyed up to a fighting pitch and determined to knock the Crusader Frosh off their high horse, the Eaglets were chagrined and disappointed to be rained out of their entire series and the disastrous season came to a conclusion without their being able to take revenge out on anyone. However, Coach McCrehan was quietly satisfied, for he saw great prospects in the playing of several of the members of the Class of ' S-t. SOPHOMORE The annual Father ' s Day feature found the team lined up against Fordham with Captain Spognardi at short, Jim Crowley at third, Kit- tredge and Chesnulevitch at first and second respectively, Callery, Lane, and Freitas in the outfield, while Gallagher did the hurling and Mclntyre the receiving. Gal- lagher ' s puzzling slants and blinding speed silenced the powerful bats of Pepper, Tobin, and Fisher. Due to Gallery ' s slugging, B. C. punched out a victory. Then Roy, in his turn on the mound, made Springfield eat out of his hand while Kittredge, Mclntyre, and Graney accounted for eleven runs. Splitting up the mound duty between them, Roy, DeVenuti, and Gallagher brushed off Vermont, Syracuse, and B. U. in that order. Then in a corking good game B. C. came from behind a 5-0 lead to win from New York U., 6-5. Roy allowed St. Mary ' s but five hits and Kittredge ' s bat won for B. C. But after these seven straight victories, the Harvard Grads eked out a 7-4 victory, despite DeVenuti ' s fine hurling. The return B. U. fray was a walk-away for the Eagle, the bats of Tom Walsh and Jim Crowley and the left arm of Ed Gallagher being too much for the down towners. Then came a truly epic struggle with the ever- great Providence Friars, with Al Blanche allowing the Heights gang three hits in nine innings and Roy striking out ten Dominicans and allowing but six hits. However, one was a home run in the final frame which decided the struggle in favor of the Rhode Islanders. The Villanova battle was similar to the Provi- dence game, for a home run off one of Gallagher ' s fast balls broke up the game in Villanova ' s favor, 4-2. Middlebury and Manhattan bowed before a superb B. C. Eagle, and Fordham again tasted -- ' --- ' defeat, this time in their own back yard. An Ted Galligan eminently successful seaso n was clouded by two Pitcher decisive defeats at the hands of our Worcester (lit 1934® suftf urn rivals. Holy Cross. The team in both encounters went through a complete change of form and always made the wrong move; their fielding was slip-shod and their bats were silent. While in this hypnotic state. Providence, with Al Blanche hurl- ing, gained revenge for its early-season defeat. Tufts put us back in the winning column, but again Holy Cross rubbed gall into the open wound and clouted us into submission. JUNIOR The schedule of 1933 started off with an in- novation, for our fir.st opponents were the Boston Red Sox, with Henry Johnson pitching for the professionals and Buddy Roy pitching three inn- ings for the Eagles. Due to the earliness of the .season and the lack of practice, it was not deemed wise to overwork Roy ' s arm, and the American Leaguers pounded out a 9-2 victory. Roy bore down on Bates and whiffed seven men to assure a 10-1 victory for the Gold and Maroon. The Alumni, with Cheese McCrehan and JoeMcKenneyinthe ranks, were unable to defeat the collegians and took a razzing to the tune of 5-3. William and Mary, in a pitchers ' battle, was defeated by Bob Duffy, who allowed but four hits and struck out six. When Providence and B. C. resumed the feud of the previous season, Roy and Blanche faced each other in a superb game, but Blanche ' s comrades came to his aid and he went home with a 4-0 victory. The Harvard Grads got to McLaughlin early and had sewed up a 7-4 victory before anyone realized it. B. LT., after leading 6-1, was defeated, 8-6. Georgetown ran into Roy when he was red hot, for he fanned eleven men and allowed but two hits, which brought his record for the year up to 28 strike-outs in 26 innings. Victories followed over Harvard Grads when Bob Duffy gained revenge by striking out eleven men, driving in four runs, and scoring one run himself. Manhattan, Fordham, and N. Y. U. fell before the fast pace of the Eagles, and indeed Boehner ' s homers and Curran ' s hitting were chiefly responsible for these scalps. Roy again pitched a one-hit game to strangle B. LT. Duffy and Blanche had a splendid duel, but Providence capitalized on the breaks. The Cross series started out disastrously. Homers by the Crusaders ruined Roy, while Mulli- gan held us down to five hits, two of which were doubles by Bill Boehner. However, the final two games of the series were well earned Boston vic- tories, giving the first Holy Cross series to Boston College since 1927, thanks to Roy, Duffy, Boehner, Freitas, Kittredge, and Shea.

This composite would not sufl er a jot by the augmentation of other 1934 men, members of the track team, who did not scintillate, athletically, so brilliantly, but who were faithful in training and now and then scored either on relay teams or in interclass competition. Other activities, no doubt, weakened their powers in track. There was Debater Donahoe; Caterer Rooney; Student George Lang; Flavio Tosi, who played a little football. Flavio, in his freshman year, won the dash against Exeter. The mention of 1934 might also cause a sadness; sadness at recalling what might have been. Two regular members of our famous two-mile relay team, both 1934 men, failed to retain their seats in the classroom. This forced the dropping of two-mile relay racing for the latter half of the indoor season. But every season must have its ups and downs. Such is life. So will 1934 find it before they are old alumni. That they will have more ups than downs is the wish of John A.

Prospects looked good for the track team that had John Mc- Manus, New England Intercol- legiate sprint champion, as cap- tain, and Ralph Edwards as manager. The first meet of the year, the sixth Annual Harvard Cross Country open, was held on Fri- day, the 27th of October. The race was run over the Charles River Drive course, a distance of five miles. This meet was won by New Hampshire. Bowdoin was second, Rhode Island State, third. Boston College managed to nose out Springfield College, the defending champion. In this run Johnnie Downey, tenth place winner, was the first B. C. man to cross the finish line, while Frank Delear, George Lang, Jerry Lee, and Joe Pais finished, in that order, for B. C. The next meet was with West Point. In this Cross Country run our team was badly out.scored. Five West Point men finished in a tie for first place. Once again Downey, Delear, Lang, Lee and Pais finished in that order. In the annual Fall Inter-class Meet Bill Hayes, of senior, captured the Presi- dent ' s cup for scoring the most points. Hayes scored a first place in the running broad jump, the low hurdles, and the high jump, a second place in the high hurdles and third in the shot-put and javelin.

Don Mc- Kee, frosh star, won the four forty, defeating Bill Parks, of senior, in a close finish. Dana Smith, of senior, won the half- mile and Don Fleet won the mile. On Saturday, the 13th of Janu- ary, an informal meet was held with Massachusetts Institute of Technology on their track. This meet was held despite a heavy downpour, which forced the dashes and hurdles to be called off. The dash was to have brought together our Captain Johnny McManus and Dick Bell of M. I. T., who is the Indoor Intercollegiate champion. The varsity 60C-yard run was won by Dana Smith, B. C. senior. John Powers, B. C. half-miler, was second, and Blair of M. I. T. was third. The 1000-yard run was won by another B. C. senior, Don Fleet, while Mann (M. I. T.) was second and Barrett (M. I. T.) third. The time of this race was 2: 22 4-5 seconds, exceptionally fast when we con- sider the rain and condition of the track. The one-mile run was won by Jenkins, M. I. T.; Johnnie Downey, the B. C. flying sophomore, was second. Jerry Lee of B. C. was third. The one-mile relay was won by B. C. The team was made up of Johnny Joyce, Bill Parks, Jim O ' Leary, and Don Fleet. The freshmen did very well, Don McKee winning the 600-yard run, with his teammate, McNulty, second. The 1000-yard run was won by Ben Hines of freshman. The one-mile Frosh Relay made up of Bob Burrell, John Fleet, Frank Durst, and Don McKee easily out-distanced their M. I. T. rivals. At the annual K. of C. games held at the Boston Garden, B. C. made its debut for 1934 in big-time competition. Neal Holland, B. C. senior, placed third in the 45-yard high hurdles. This event was won by Ray McLaughlin, running for the B. A. A. The Varsity one-mile relay team, racing against N. Y. U., fought it out on even terms for three legs of the race. Smith, running anchor for B. C, had the misfortune to fall as he was trying to pass Hofi ' man, the N. Y. LT. anchor man, and N. Y. V. won the race. Joyce ran lead-off for B. C, Bill Parks ran second, Johnny McManus third, and Dana Smith anchor. The Frosh one mile relay team easily defeated Northeastern and Tufts. Burrell, J. Fleet, Hines, and McKee made up the Freshman team. The Varsity two-mile relay placed third to Harvard and the LTniversity of Maine. Malone, Eaton, Powers, and Dana Smith ran, in that order, for B. C. The two-mile relay journeyed over to New York where they ran at the Millrose A. A. Games.

Ben Hines. a member of the Freslunan Class, placed second in the 1000. At the B. A. A. Meet. Xeal Holland reached the semi- finals but failed to qualify for the finals. Our one-mile relay team was defeated by Holy Cross. Joyce, Bill Parks. Johnny McManus, and Dana Smith made up the B. C. team that raced against Mulready. Morin. Murphy, and Ring of Holy Cross. The two-mile relay team placed third to University of Maine and Harvard. Malone, Eaton. Dana Smith, and Powers, racing in that order, composed the B. C. Team. The Freshman relay team placed second to Holy Cross. Burrell. J. Fleet, Hines, and McKee, while bowing before Holy Cross, managed to beat the teams entered by Tech and Xortheastern. The third annual TJniversity Club Game, held at the Boston Garden on the ••Zlst of February, found Xeal Holland placing second to Hayes of Harvard in the 45-yard high hurdles. Frank Eaton, former member of the two-mile relaj ' team, placed fourth in the 880. The one-mile relay team, composed of McManus, Parks, Malone, and Smith, defeated teams entered by Dartmouth and M.

It was Bill Parks who pushed the well known Fleet to a new record in the 440. And on the same day Johnny McManus starred in the dashes. Our ' arsity Relay teams won both the one and two- mile relays at the Prout Games. And a few weeks later, the two-mile team won the I. C. A. A. A. A. championship. Jack O ' Brien, Tom Meagher, Don Fleet, and Bren Moyna- han compo.sed the team. At the Greater Bostons, held at the Harvard Stadium, Dailey, Smith, and McManus won first places, for the Freshman team. Holland placed third in the hurdles. Paul Dailey, in winning the half-mile, set a new record for the distance. Johnny McManus, not only won the hundred yard dash, but placed second in the i ' -ZO. The next fall found us members of the Sophomore Class. In the Fall Inter-class meet we began to show our true colors, Xeal Holland won the high hurdles, McMan- us placed second to Fleet in the hundred-yard dash. Smith won the 4-10, with Parks, also of Soph in second place. Dailey won the half mile, with Wall, another Soph in third position. McManus placed second in the ' i ' iO. with Smith in third position. Hayes tied for first place in the high jump, and third place in the pole vault. Tosi placed third in the javelin, and second in the shot. Dana Smith won the 600- yard championship at the Xew Englands, and Xeal Holland won the 45-yard hurdles, .symbolic of the championship of Xew England. The two-mile relay that had Dailey as lead-off man set a new record at the K. of C. meet. The one-mile relay team that had McManus, Smith, and Parks, all of Soph- omore, beat M. I. T. And a few weeks later, the medley re- lay, with Parks, and Smith of 34 placed second. The spring found Smith, Parks, McManus, Holland, and Dailey, scoring in the Holy Cross, and Greater Boston meets. In our Junior year we found another new name written on the roles of those who were bringing fame to our class, and that man was Bill Hayes. Hayes won the President ' s cup for scoring the most points in the Annual Fall Inter- class meet. Parks, McManus, Smith, Dailey ran on our relay teams during the winter season and in the spring Mc] Ianus won the ' •2 ' 20-yard dash at the X ew Englands, and placed second in the 100.

In all branches of sports it has been foremost in victories and in gentlemanly conduct. During its career it has seen a stadium reared on its campus, it has seen its football fame spread throughout the East, the nation-wide recognition of its Football Coach, and the ra pid rise of its minor sports into the limelight of recognition by both faculty and sports writers. But of all its achievements, that of putting hockey back as a major sport in the program of Athletic Association is a deed which will be remembered by Alumni and student-body alike. Starting our climb back into the hockey heights will naturally be a slow pro- cedure. However, we have now a nucleus around which we can build, and are ex- tremely fortunate in the fact that we have but three players in the graduating class. Naturally, the loss of Crimlisk, Downey, and Blake will be felt, but with High School stars once again glad to come to the Heights, we will be able to progress more rapidly from now on. Therefore, with the nucleus of stars which will return next year, including Moore, Liddell, and Ready, and with an exceptionally large squad of freshman stars, we will be ready to meet the be,st of college teams, and I warn our future opponents to watch out for B.

Of the nine games scheduled, the Eagles lost four by a single goal, one in an over-time period, and one by three goals. The other games were two wins, over St. Anselm ' s and Nichols Junior Col- lege, and a 5-5 tie with Northeastern. This latter encounter, one of the most thrilling ever staged at the historic arena, saw the Eagles trailing by five goals as late as half-way through the second period. Nobody in Boston can remember such a come-back as the Eagles staged to tie up the verdict and almo.st grasp it several times in an over-time session. It is upon the fighting spirit which the B. C. athletes have displayed in this and in all their other engagements that Coach John Kelley, ' 28, is basing many of his hopes for the coming years as he strives to put hockey back in its proper place at the Heights, after a lapse of five years. Reserves have not been plentiful, so that a handful of athletes have borne the brunt of the battle. This, however, gained them strength, stamina, and experience for the future. Among this group are Captain Ray Funchion, who was injured mid- way through the season, and was unavailable for the remaining games. Herb Crim- lisk, Frank Liddell, Fred Moore, Charlie Downey, Tom Blake, and Tim Ready, who in every game played themselves into exhaustion for an Eagle victory. With Crimlisk, Liddell and Moore playing hard, rugged hockey, B. U. out- lucked us by a lone tally, 3-2, and in a return match, decisively defeated us 6-3. Both matches were typical B. C.-B. U. affairs, with feelings running high, body and board checks extra hard and penalties plentiful. Time and again Herb, Frank and Fred combined to speed down the ice and bang away perfect shots only to be out- lucked by the B. U. goalie. Crimlisk all night long out-skated and out-smarted the B. U. sextet, only to be foiled at the goal mouth. Lax was the big noise for the Down- Towners and only for the rough but effective body-checking of Charlie Downey, the score might have been worse. However, the season had a successful ending when we defeated Nichols College 3-1, a game completely dominated by Crimlisk, who dented the strings twice, and Downey and Blake, who prevented any of the opponents from penetrating beyond the blue line. 394 € flit 1934 w3 suHww I- To the many accomplishments of the Class of ' 34 must be added the rebirth of hockey as a major sport at the Heights. In freshman year, due to the enthusiasm and seriousness of a group of former prep and high school hockey stars, a, team was organized and fully equipped at the personal expense of the individual members of the sextet. Under the guidance and efficient management of Phil Kelly the team was able to engage in competition with other college freshman teams and a number of leading N. E. prep school teams. After a rugged practice game with the seniors, in which the frosh completel ' outclassed their rivals, the sextet went up against the strong St. John ' s Prepsters. In a brilliant game, Greg Sullivan ' s sterling net-minding kept the Danverites at bay and the Eaglets won handily to the tune of 5 to 1. After defeating the Angel Guardian team the freshmen journeyed to the wilds of New Hampshire to attempt the difficult task of playing both St. Anselm ' s and the Nashua T. T. on the same day. In the afternoon St. Anselm ' s gave us a great battle and it was only in the five- minute over-time that Tom Blake was able to push the lozenge past their net guard- ian and gave the frosh a 5 to 4 verdict. Then, in the bitter cold of four below zero, they defeated the Nashua team that night and, by this remarkable feat, gained intercollegiate recognition. The first defeat of the season was suffered at the hands of the strong B. U. Terriers, but revenge was gained when we defeated M. I. T., 2 to 1. Finally, the season was terminated with a defeat administered by the clever State Championship Melrose team despite the determination and fight injected into the Eagle by the fight talk of Phil Kelly. Under the influence of three upper-class presidents, hockey, as a major sport, was brought back to the Heights after an absence of five years. Due to the tardy beginning, a complete schedule could not be arranged, but one was secured sufficient for the initial season and the team, under the coaching of John Snooks Kelly, a former B.C. hockey star, was victorious over Northeastern, Tech, Brown, and the Alumni, while suffering two defeats at the hands of the strong B. U. team. After three weeks of intensive early-morning practice, the maroon-and-gold striped outfit engaged and defeated Northeastern 8 to 6 in a thrilling, free-scoring battle. Then Tech fell before the speedy forwards of the Eagle, 3 to 1. A strong team of former B. C. hockey greats again donned the runners to oppose the collegians, but the better condition and teamwork of the varsity was too well perfected and the Eagle coasted to a 4 to 2 win. The clever stick of Johnny Lax held too much dynamite for the Eagle, who met its first defeat at the hands of the powerful aggregation from the intown college. At Brown University, after a fast and brilliant game, the Eagle again screamed in victory. A short but successful season was completed with our second defeat adminis- tered by B. U. It was a rough, hard game from whistle to bell, and only superior reserve strength gave the Terriers their single-goal margin of victory. w flit l934@5uHui:n CAPTAIN RAYMOND N. FUNCHION— our Eddie Shore, a rough, rugged, de- fenseman whose spectacular solos down the ice were always feared by the op- ponents, and his crashing body-checks in breaking up plays always took the fight out of enemy forwards. HERBERT L. CRIMLISK— for three years an intercollegiate star, Herb ' s ag- gressiveness and ability made him the spearhead of the B. C. attack and defense. His name will be linked to the long line of B. C. Hockey immortals. CHARLES F. DOWNEY — A keen diagnoser of players, he had an uncanny knack of being in the right place at the right time; he possessed a superb poke check and metered out punishing body-checks, a demon defenseman. THOMAS A. BLAKE — hockey to Tom was merely a way to keep in trim between the football and baseball seasons. During Captain Funehion ' s injury period Tom bore the brunt of the attack and the low scores of the opponents are a tribute to Tom ' s defensive ability. JOSEPH W. McLaughlin — an active, energetic manager under whose shrewd foresight a representative schedule was arranged.

Due to the rapid advancement of golf at the Heights within the last few years, B. C. has been recognized by the Intercollegiate Golf Association as having one of the country ' s foremost college golfing teams each year. As a member of this organ- ization, the B. C. G. A. office is flooded annually with contracts from colleges solicit- ing games. The ' 34 season was no exception and a schedule for a Southern trip during the Easter vacation was readily drawn up. Pre-trip practice was entirely impossible after the heavy snow drifts of the winter of ' 33- 3-t, and as a consequence the boys departed without having so much as held a stick in their hands. Starting competition at the same time that they started feeling their clubs was not reassuring to their ease and comfort. Naturally, their trip was disappointing, but it was not as fateful as was feared, because they returned home with the scalps of Washington and Lee College and Temple University, while they suffered at the hands of the University of Vir- ginia, Franklin and Marshall, and Villanova; but ' tis said leg-wearyness was the chief cause of the Villanova loss. Back from the Southern trip with plenty of time for practice and competition, there was added the strength of old varsity players of the Class of ' 34, such as Walter Dray, Johnny Long, Henry Titus, and Jim Dunn, and much new blood from the undergraduates, amongst whom were George Finn and Charley Featherstone. The schedule which remained was extensive and difficult, insuring the followers and the contestants a most interesting season of competition. Seventeen matches provided the team with ample contests to carry high the banner of the Heights upon the links. Brown, Manhattan, and Dartmouth were not feared by our pill-chasers, for this same aggregation of Fitzy, Flaherty, Halligan, and Featherstone had met and defeated them twice in the previous year, and promised a recurrence of the victories. However, the entire success or failure of the season depended as usual on the Class of ' 34, for there was but one undergraduate on the .starting team, and this fact alone assured a season of successes.

Without any practice whatsoever, wearied and cramped by the long auto ride, the boys ran into competition too stiff for their tired limbs. Completely awe-stricken by the blinding speed of their opponents ' shots and agility in covering the taped area, the Boston boys met defeat at the hands of superb teams from North Carolina University, Virginia Military Institute, Virginia Uni- versity, and Johns Hopkins University, before huge and enthusiastic gatherings.

At Duke, Phil Kelly took on the swimming coach in an indoor meet, and from all reports, he so soundly thrashed the Dvikian that it caused his early retirement to the gymnasium showers while Phil, with the good name of B. C. still unsmeared, boarded Elmer Rynne ' s Tennis Special and steamed off to N. C. University. The Southern trip, as could only be expected, was little short of disastrous. However, none of the boys who made the trip were seniors, for Captain Elmer Rynne and Joe Corcoran are of junior and Dave Bailey and Vin Mahoney are of sophomore, so they have gained valuable experience for the remainder of the season and especially for next year. All the members of the team were congratulated by their opponents for their fine showing during the tour, especially Captain Rynne, who won most of his singles matches and teamed up with Joe Corcoran in the doubles for several victories. However, now that the squad is back on home grounds and has the added strength of many seniors who were unable to get away at Easter, the Tennis Team seems capable of finishing the remainder of the season without suffering a defeat. The seniors who will strengthen the squad materially are George Miller, who reached the semi-finals in the City of Boston Championships for the last three years, Ray Roberts, who won the Scituate singles championship and was a finalist in the South Shore Championships, and Herb Kenny, a veteran of several seasons, who will return to court wars and lead the racquet brigade out of the doldrums back to the heights attained in former years. After the trip, practice was begun once more on the courts in the rear of the Science Building, and the squad was soon in mid-season form and on a par with our next opponents. Brown, Boston University, Northeastern, and, finally, for our series with Holy Cross. Due to the renewed interest and material aid given to this minor sport by the Class of 1934, tennis is all set for a successful season and more glory is undoubtedly due for the Maroon and Gold. fhe I934®5 6futn Second Roif: O ' Connell, Steele, Lambert.

These have been the perils and the protectors of heroes in fiction and in history. Achilles, Horatius, Cyrano, D ' Artagnan, Tybalt, the Black Prince — all these and many more owe their fame to their prowess in arms. So uni- versal indeed is the appeal and the exercise of fencing that one might truly say that, as a sport, it bridges the Ages, linking the ancient with the modern and the barbaric with the civilized. It is not unnatural, therefore, that the students rallied round this romantic sport and mustered a team which, in excellence if not in achievement, was without a peer in collegiate circles. Hostilities broke out early in February when the college encountered the Shaw- mut Fencing Club in a sterling match. The engagement was sharp and fierce, and although the College fencers offered a stubborn resistance, still their inexperience took its toll, and they retired from the strip losing by a margin of three bouts. In the following week, however, obdurate Fortune smiled on the boys, when they emerged triumphant from the fray with B. U. Other matches followed in quick succession; there was the melee with Norwich, followed by the memorable trip and subsequent passage-at-arms at Princeton, which event was the highwater mark of the season. In all these matches, whether as victor or vanquished, the brilliant sword-play of the Boston men-at-arms excited the admiration of both friend and foe. The chief of this gallant band of heroes was Capt. John Sheehan, who, like Hector of yore, was foremost in battle. John ' s forte was the sabre, with which he exhibited a remarkable mastery, while he also showed surprising skill in the use of the epee. Another redoubtable champion was Frank Lambert. He too was a sabre- man and a veritable Ajax, for, when hard pressed by his antagonist, he merely re- doubled his eflforts, laying low his foeman. The ablest of all, however, was the foils- man, Ex-Captain Herb Kenny, a veteran of four years. In his use of quarte and sixte, with his subtle ripostes, counters, thrusts, and feints, he displayed all the finesse and adroitness of a virtuoso, so that the foil became a steel serpent in his hand. The last of the senior warriors was Bill McDonald, who, although hampered by the demands of his many scientific interests, still contrived to furnish able and timely support to the team. Besides these seniors, there were the undergraduates McBride and Steele, who had a place on the roster of the team and had a commendable part in this year ' s splendid work. The battle is done, the smoke clears, and the dust settles. The cries of Hola! La Belle! Bravo! Touche la! grow dim and die, but their memory is alive.

At least half a hundred candidates reported for firing. Gradually, after .several months of intensive practice, the squad was weeded down to its final enrollment of fifteen. These men, coached only by the veterans, entered into competition with most of the large Eastern colleges made up of R.O.T.C. units and coached by trained military officers. This difficulty, added to the fact that the government greatly curtailed the amount of ammunition issued during ' 33- ' 34, made the season less successful than had been anticipated. However, the year saw a great advancement in the facilities of the club. Not only were arrangements made to have heating equipment installed in the indoor range for the next season, but also an outdoor range was contracted for. Once again the team scheduled difficult matches, especially with the Harvard College Team, with whom it had been competing for five years. But success was assured while Capt. Frank Lambert, Roy Jensen, Granville Jones, Art McLaughlin, Vin Murray and Charlie Hagan continued to knock out the ten ring as con- sistently as they had done in the early-season contests.

Deary Eflitor for Senior If each one of us could realize the almost infinite amount of time, effort, and self-sacrifice which Marc has expended in his Mana- gerial capacities, he would not only feel obliged but even privileged to own a Sub Turri. We of the Managing Board are proud to have been able to assist such a sincere and consci- entious executive, and, now that finis is written to this noble work, we merrily raise our steins and shout to the skies, Hail to you. Marc, and to the best Sub Turri ever jjublished at the Heights! John J. Tierney. Like a well-oiled piece of mechanism, John slipped into the Sub Turri machine when he was most needed. It is a wonder to us, now when we realize all that he has done, how we ever managed to get along without him previously. Arthur J. McLaughlin. Art ' s ability to maintain a cheerful attitude in the midst of editorial difficulties gave us an inward feeling of thankfulness that he was always at our side. He further justified our opinion of him as one of the best-liked fellows in senior. James G. Fay. Jim ' s dexterity and good sense often asserted itself as he solved one problem after another with equal efficiency and ease. John A. Porthouse. Well aware of his ability and proud of his friendship, we all felt John ' s illness deeply and sincerely as an Editor and a fellow student. Robert A. McQuilland. The business difficulties of the present day did not deter Bob from making the Sub Turri a financial as well as a literary success. In facing his many discouraging problems, he ever retained his individual air of sang- froid and spirit of light-heartedness. C. Edward Long. Chassis by Long has become as well known to seniors as body by Fi-sher to automobile owners. His clever touches to the caricatures .show a most extraordinary imagination. His borders for the book are in a class by themselves. Frank V. Brow. To view an artist ' s conception of our physiognomies was certainly a novel surprise for most of us. Few know how many gallons of midnight oil were burnt to make ours the best seller of a long line of Sub Turris. Frank P. Lambert. Surely the personal touches, comprehensive treatment, and accuratene ss of detail evident in the extensive Activities section of the book are sufficient testimonial to Frank ' s faultlessness in the handling of his onerous duties.

Cahill, no man was more fitted to take the office of business manager than Francis J. Farrenkopf. In his freshman and sophomore years, Farren- kopf was a member of the business staff of the paper. In his junior year he turned his activities to other fields; in senior he returned to the paper in the role of columnist, handl- ing track. On his entrance into the office of business manager, Farrenkopf continued his work in the sports field but still found time to handle the busi- ness and advertising end of the paper most capably. Despite a blow rendered to him by a change in the paper ' s policy, he managed, nevertheless, to keep it in the black side of the ledger. CIRCULATION BY BOB SULLIVAN Nodepartment on theHeighis was as well conducted as the circulation department Con- gratulations in this field go to Robert L. Sullivan who did his work so well during the year; behind him he had a staff, well chosen by himself, and working heart and soul behind him. A thankless task, Sullivan made the work enjoyable by gathering together a group that might well be called the Circu- lation Club. Their office was the place of light chaff and merry din. Thus Sullivan raised the position to a new high, making it the more desirable for hissucces.sor. J. ROACH HOLDS FEATURE STAFF In past years the feature de- partment was negligible but under the stylistic touch of John L. Roach the feature page of the paper became a new force. The new column, The Whirling Hub, ' a novel insti- tution, became extremely popu- lar, and on all questions Roach gave new light. His deep pen turned to all fields, analyzed life, love, and literature and wrote in so dominant a style that seldom were his state- ments challenged by the stu- dent-body. In the field of the editorial. Roach was a spokesman and counsel for and to the student- body. Hardly a week passed but he wrote on some subject. Economics especially was the field for this capable journalist. But all subjects were treated by him in clear, direct, decisive language. O ' BRIEN ABDICATES CHAIR The change of staff was a happy one, not only for the new .staff but also for the out- going board who, having placed the reins of office into the most capable hands, retired content. Edward J. O ' Brien, .stylistic .sports writer, succeeded Her- bert A. Kenny into office as Editor. Capable in all fields, no better successor could be found. Into the role of Managing Edi- tor came Joseph E. Donovan, advancing from his old post of News Editor. C. Henry Mur- phy, star reporter, succeeded Donovan to the News Editor ' s chair. William A, Kean followed O ' Brien as Sports Editor. HERB KENNY LEAVES OFFICE OF EDITOR BEFORE EASTER FR. SULLIVAN, S. J. IS MODERATOR Mr. Keneally, S. J. Business Head A great part of tfie develop- ment and high-tone of the Heights during the seasons 19. ' 33-34 was due to the modera- tors. Especially Rev. R. Paul Sullivan, S.J., head moderator, and Mr. Joseph Keneally, S.J., deserve sincere thanks since they handled the paper during the greater part of the regime. During the summer season of 1933 the Rev. Joseph D. Fitz- gerald, S.J., and Mr. Joseph R. Fox, S.J., served in the neces- sary advisory offices of the paper. SPORTS TO SUCCEED KENNY Versatile and capable, his first column was an immediate success. As football manager he was well acquainted with sports and athletes. To the office of Feature Editor came Steven Fleming, essayist, poet, and editorialist. Brilliant in these fields, his keen and enthusiastic mind created interest throughout the regime of Roach by editorials and reviews. To the office of circulation, no man but Edward Fitz- maurice, pepper-box of the Circulation Club, could justly come. .Although but a sopho- more, he was the lone candidate for the job. He took office amid cheers. Had Ma ny Juniors on Staff; Followed Curley into Office Shortly before the Easter vacation, Herbert A. Kenny, who liad served in the office of Editor of the Ileiglitx, ended his term of office. During his re- gime the Heights reached a new height of detail and conserva- tism, despite its militant at- titude. Assisting him on the manag- ing board were several juniors. Edward J. O ' Brien, who served in the role of sports editor, is treated in another article. Kenny ' s two chief assistants in the field of news, editorials and comments were, excepting the versatile Roach, Joseph E. Donovan and Raymond L. Belliveau. ED O ' BRIEN IN SPORTS CHAIR Edward J. O ' Brien headed the sports staff ' during the season ' 33- ' 34 and gave a touch to the sports column, Eagle ' s Eye, that had been absent for some years. A stylist at heart and a judge of good men he gathered a great staff behind him. What better football author- ity than Raymond L. Harring- ton.? What better track author- ity than Frank J. Farrenkopf. ' With these men doing the bulk of the work, O ' Brien gave to the school a new sports page. Himself taking care of the make-up of the page, he lent it his individual note. THE HEIGHTS EDITORIALS BOSTON COLLEGE OF FUTURE (written in the Heights of 1985) IN the year 1 96.5, the buildings on University Heights were completed; the four Gothic edifices, once known to the oldest living graduates, are almost dwarfed by the super- structures that now dominate the eyrie of the Eagle. In that year also the Medical School was started, and the first Catholic medical school in New England began to train young men in the newest discoveries of medical scien ce, always with an eye to moral principles. By this time, the name of Boston College stood forth for the first time as the highest, most complete and the most respected university in the new hemisphere. It is difficult for us now to conceive it not having been always so, but we must remember that the influx of students, in such great numbers which pro- voked this great transformation, started only in 1950. The dream of the most glorious educational institution in the new world conceived by its founders 100 years before that time was finally realized. It is needless for us to enumerate the great figures. Alumni of Boston College, who have bestrode the political, eceleciasti- cal, judicial and medical spheres like so many colossi. Their names and achievements are encased in every brain as precious treasures in a locket. The debt we owe to men who planned and attended Boston College in those early years is an enormous one, which we can never fully discharge, and in virtue of which, we will always be under heavy obligation to their loyalty and vision. J. L. R. EDUCATION ONE of the notable deficiencies of college men is inability to express themselves either by the written or spoken word. In argument among his friends the college man displays a certain adeptness at argumentation above that of the ordin- ary man as is only natural from the disparity between their respective educations. Nevertheless, when placed before a body of men of his own or even of less education, the average college man is at a standstill to express the ideas which are bound to be his if he couples his advantages of education with the morsel of natural ability that each one of us is sure to have. This situation — and it does exist — is most melancholy and is entirely unnecessary. To say that ideas are useless unless they are given the opportunities of expression is platitudinous. To say that this condition has no right to exist is nearer the point. In Boston College every opportunity is given the student to enable him to improve himself in argumentation and expres- sion. There are debating societies for all classes. The record of the Fulton Debating Society in dialectic circles would make the record of Notre Dame University in football look paltry in a relative comparison. Oxford, Harvard, Fordham, and other universally recognized colleges have fallen prey to the ruthless logic of the debaters of Boston College. Writers may use The Heights and Stylus for written expression. Logic and rhetoric are stressed ad naus?am by the teaching staff, but what is the use if the student will not better himself in his expression of argument and give these inestimable aids their proper vehicle) ' Some of our education must be gleaned by ourselves. The teacher can not give us his own ability in lecturing. He can not sell us his pen. They give us the hammer and the nails, but we must build the house. h. a. k. The Whirling Hub — • Jack Roach • — • Far too much attention is directed by Catholic laymen to serious, theological apologies, which to the non-Catholic mind present an insurmountable bar- rier to interest in Catholic action and Catholic principles. In short, far too many laymen ape St. Thomas and far too few imitate Chesterton. Let the clergy carry on the war against irreligion; schooled in theological intricacies, they alone are fit by virtue of their training and their vocation. The layman, if he be articulate, can turn his efforts to artistic and literary achievement. For, the great part of criticism is not directed against our theological syste m, which even to the prejudiced is a monument to the genius of the human mind, but rather against Catholic non-culture, because, it is argued, the arts are not patron- ized by the Church. It is all very well to sit tight, smugly conscious of the truth of Catholicism, and the fact that it is unassailable by errors, but if we attempt to carry the battle into the enemy ' s camp, let us at least adapt our weap- ons to the attacks of the ad- versary. Safe in the bulwark of faith, we sit like immovable Buddhas, in the uninterrupted contemplation of the strength of our position. But if, since the current note is, A iVIilitant Catholicism, we sally forth to vanquish the assailants, then at least we should have a plan of battle in keeping with the number and nature of our assailants. Hilaire Belloc is a type of militant Catholic, but I am very much afraid that his war- like actions, honorable though they be, are a trifle too intense. I should think it would be far better to disarm the enemy with urbanity than to provoke him to battle by an antagon- istic number of arguments. Mr. Belloc and others are too ready to provoke an argument, and too reluctant to sit down to a detached, impersonal dis- cussion. The cause of Catholic- ism may be championed as well by an arms conference.

Toland Henry G. Beauregard Paul Power John McIver William Kvaraceus John Roach c tilt l934@STlftfUUt The need for Catholic lay action is exceeded only by the need for Catholic lay philosophical study. For, without depre- cating the former, the latter is the nobler work : because it is stimulated by a desire for truth desirable in and of itself, not for what it can accomplish. It is of more than passing significance that truth itself is ignored, while its effects are sought. We do not say that there is too much emphasis by Catholic educators on Catholic action, but we do say there has been too little emphasis on the study of truth in post gradu- ate work. Because of an over-materialistic civilization, Catholic professors have felt it encumbent on them to point out the practicality of philosophy, how it is of value in later life, how it sharpens the mind, and lends a determined note to a man ' s out- look on life. Philosophy itself is eminently worthy of study because it is the science of truth in its purest, its most native form. Other sciences study aspects of Truth as it applies in its specific inferiors; they arrive at the essence of things through their accidental activities, whereas philosophy studies first the essence, and then the modifications that flow from it and that are determined by it. It is perhaps nobler to have a greater grasp on truth yourself than to have an inferior knowledge and seek to impart that to others. Scholastic philosophy forms the rock-bottom of Catholic undergraduate educa- tion, but almost universally it is used as a tool to carve oneself a place in a non- philosophical profession by graduate work. There are few if any Catholic college students, not of the priestly calling, who are embracing philosophy (i.e., scholastic philosophy), with an eye to procuring a Doctor ' s degree in the study. Ph.D. ' s are granted in every conceivable subject — from languages to biology, until the degree itself has come to signify nothing it was originally intended to signify. It now gives its possessor the honor of being regarded as a kind of superman, with a knowledge of everything but philosophy. Graduates of non-Catholic universities, have, strangely enough set a course for us. One man goes to a famous non-sectarian college, becomes interested in the dift ' er- ent systems of philosophy. After graduation, he enters a European university (one of the better-known, of course), and comes home with a doctorate of philosophy in Kant. After .studying the Kantian system, he becomes convinced that it is the only true one. On his return to America, armed with his European degree, he procures a professorship in some American university, whence he distributes Kantian philoso phy to students for the rest of his life. We are not advocating anyone journeying to Europe to take a Ph.D. in Kant, but if non-Catholics are so desirous to attain truth that they persist in embracing a philosophy, which although it may appeal to them, should make them aware of its imperfections and contradictions, why should not the Catholic, e.g., the Boston College undergraduate, be animated to study extensively in Catholic philosophy, especially when it could surely be proved that it is the only true one. Should the -1.20 (he 1934 @j$ujf urn -—w- search for truth in a false system surpass the search for truth in a system which guarantees the object, and whose every hypothesis is estabHshed irrefutably? It is paradoxical to reflect that the true is deliberately avoided, while the false is avidly sought. There are a few American students, graduates of Catholic colleges, who are at present studying philosophy at the University of Louvian, in Belgium, where Cardinal Mercier launched his Neo-Scholastic revival. They report that the study brings them into daily contact with University students from all over the world, and the Catholic education in America is by no means inferior to any other any- where. They stand well in their classes, and are making names for themselves by independent study and original contribution to modern scholastic thought. They will stand after completing their course, shoulder to shoulder with Jacques Maritain, and other European laymen who have embraced Scholastic philosophy as a life ' s work. On their return to America, there are positions open in many non-sectarian colleges for scholastic philosophy — that are vacant just now precisely because there is no Catholic layman eminent enough to fill them. There is a challenge to the earnestness of Catholic college men! No Catholic layman is eminent enough to fill the several chairs open in scholastic philosophy. That is because although Catholic laymen take doctorate degrees, they take these degrees in everything but philosophy. The non-sectarian world is beginning to think that Catholic laymen for all their talk are indifferent to the Truth. How else can we expect them to judge except from the fact that we have manifested an indifference the truth in philosophy in graduate work. These Catholic laymen at home and abroad have set an example for Boston College to follow. The very paucity of their numbers should shame us into adopting their mode of study.

HERBERT KENNY, Associate Editor, writes verses which are singularly his own. His short-stories also bear his own particular signature. THEODORE MARIER, Assistant Editor, writes good poems and short- stories too. They have the same finish as his piano-playing, which is most polished. GROVER CRONIN is unique among managing editors in that his managing does not consist in managing to keep on the staff. LOUIS F. V.

From its highly modernistic cover design until Finis is written it typifies that ne plus ultra spirit so significant of all the activities of the Class of ' 34. Gentlemen, let me quote — We, of 1934, are the conceited class. It might rightly be said we are the class of the conceited class. Conversation with a green-fringe will hint that such an opin- ion, held of ourselves, is scarcely modest. This is ridiculous, for if there is anything about us that swells our conceit it is our modesty. We do and always have done the best things and done them in the best way. (Would we mention our accomplish- ments. ' Would we boast of our achievements. ' We might, but for our modesty. Such reticence is laudable and lends polish to the deeds.) In like manner, a spirit of jovial satirism pervades the whole book, punctuated with side-splitting caricatures and instances of rare photographic talent which are only excelled by the meaty epigrams characterizing them.

O ' Brien fht I934@sttnuw p 1 A, In ancient times, the orator was considered by the Romans to be the ideal man. Today the need of real orators is so apparent that the belief of the Romans seems more than justified. With these historical allusions, let us introduce the Marquette Debating Society. In its attempts to mould the ideal man, surely a difficult task, this society need but point to its achievements of the 33- ' 3-t season as the criterion of its progress. It receives as members freshmen and sophomores of the College, unskilled in the forensic art; it turns out men who rank among the best in collegiate oratorical circles, men who enter the Fulton to continue to higher conquests. To prepare the novice for the unyielding requirements of the Fulton is in itself a thank- less and tremendous assignment. And yet, that the Fulton has been so successful may be attributed to the preparatory work of this junior society. During the scholastic year 1933-34, the Marquette has even surpassed the remarkable standard maintained in previous years. The fact that the season opened with a capacity attendance was a most accurate precursor of its consequent success. Under the Presidency of Lawrence J. Riley, ' 36, a novel system of debating was introduced. In contrast to the four-man debates of other years, only two men took part now, so that more time remained for general discussions in the open forum — certainly a most popular move. With the inception of this unprecedented method, many heated arguments took place. Such questions as the Independence of the Philippines, the Guarantee of Bank Deposits, the Dual System of Banking, Branch Banking, the Chain Store System, and all phases of federal economic innovations were debated pro longum et latum. The highlight of the first semester was the non-decision radio debate with Keene Normal School on the question, Resolved: That the essential provisions of the N.R.A. should be permanently adopted. Mark Dalton, ' 36, and C. Donald Floyd, ' 36, were the creditable representatives of the Marquette. The second term was every bit as eventful as the first. The re-election of Law- rence Riley as President of the Society was an unusual occurrence — a tribute to his qualities of leadership and rhetoric. Another innovation took place when the Oregon system of debating was inaugurated, and once again the response of the members revealed their energetic interest in matters oratorical. The annual prize debate, held on March 11 in the Senior Assembly Hall, wit- nessed the participation of John C. Donelan, ' 37, Richard M. Kelly, ' 37, C. Donald Floyd, 36, Henry G. Beauregard, ' 36, Lawrence J. Riley, ' 36, and Louis F. V. Mer- cier, ' 36, on the previously-mentioned question concerning the N.R.A. From this keen competition. Lawrence J. Riley was declared the winner of the highly-prized Gargan Award for oratory. On March 23, the Society was simultaneously represented at Technology and at Fordham. A team of freshmen, composed of Francis Small, William Taylor, and John J. Prendergast, debated on the N.R.A. with the Tech freshman society, while at Fordham, Mark J. Dalton, Joseph F. Jones, and Paul V. Power opposed the huge debating society of that university on the subject of the Monroe Doctrine. Such a record of accomplishments is due not only to the diligence of the mem bers themselves but also to the inspirational guidance of Mr. Raymond Fox, S.J., whose work is well exemplified by the phenomenal development of his proteges. -t;5i 1M the l934@STi6ftttn State Normal School of Keene, New Hampshire.

Nor is this an exaggeration, for the purpose of the Academy is to apply the theses of the lecture-hall to the facts and incidents of life. The practicality and value of this Case Method is at once apparent, for it adds concreteness and zest to the more formal treatment of the subject necessarily used in the lecture-hall. We are indeed fortunate in having as professors of Ethics two men so well versed in this subject as Father Corrigan and Father O ' Connell. With Mr. Quane S.J. as Moderator of the Academy, and Anthony La Camera as President, success was predestined. Mr. Quane introduced innumerable questions for discussion which presented many baffling difficulties in the application of class theses. And President La Camera, with his inimitable sense of humor and wit, proposed angles and complications to these questions which sent the members into spasms of laughter and required all their perspicacity to solve. Such modern innovations and practices as Organized Birth Control, Euthan- asia, Sterilization, Suicide, and Divorce were placed under the discriminating judg- ment of the Academy, dissected, and operated on according to Ethical interpreta- tion. With many distinguished and authoritative speakers to enlighten the members of the Academy on these subjects and many others equally important, there was never a dull moment in the weekly meetings. One of the outstanding features of the year was the interesting and timely talk on the History of Sterilization by Father J. F. X. Murphy. Besides giving an accur- ate account of Sterilization since its inception. Father Murphy completely shattered the argument of its advocates. Not only did he show that it is unethical, due to its intrinsic immorality, but also that it is impractical, due to the inevitable abuses which would follow. This lecture was certainly an apt one, for at that time, the fight for Sterilization was in a critical state not only in Germany, but even in this country. Mr. Quane S.J. in his various talks to the Academy constantly kept the interest running high. His interpretation of the double effect, his explanation of the relations existing between Ethics and Economics, his generous assistance to the various mem- bers of the Academy in their individual work, all helped to make the Study of Ethics more apprehensible and consequently more entertaining. Two of the more important subjects lectured on by the members of the Acad- emy were: A Discussion of Euthanasia by John Whelan, and The Relation of the Theatre and Modern Literature to Ethics by President La Camera. We are sure that the members of this Academy have gained a fund of practical knowledge and experience that will be of inestimable aid to them in whatever field of human endeavor they undertake. w ® the 1934 ® iSuHuut Second Row: Brogan, Zibbell, Lewis, Aronsaii.

Such a claim is by no means unfounded, as we can easily understand by a critical survey of the activities of the Academy. To begin with, all conversations, discussions, and addresses took place in French. This system proved most advantageous for attaining the two-fold purpose of the Academy which entailed for the members not only the development of an appreciation for French Literature, but also self-advancement in conversational ability. The accomplishments of the Academy during the entire year certainly offer a remarkable example of what the initiative and interest of the members have done. During the first term, the subjects for discussion concerned the study and apprecia- tion of the various aspects of French Literature in general. Among the outstanding lectures could be listed, Un Poete Frangais du New Hampshire, Rosaire Dion delivered by the revered Fr. De Mangeleere, S.J., whose guidance of the Academy has been the inspiring factor of its long list of successes. President Leo Leveille gave a scholarly and intriguing talk on Voltaire, entitled, Voltaire; Sa Vie-Ses Idees Politiques et Religieuses. Another discourse worthy of mention was presented by A. Marcus Lewis on the subject of Early French Drama under the caption Les Mysteres et Les Moralites. The first term was most appropriately climaxed by Un Debat Oratoire held at the Philomatheia Clubhouse. The subject for the debate concerned the desirability of the annexation of Canada to the United States. The affirmative was upheld by A. Marcus Lewi.s, ' 34 and Clarence Boucher, ' 35; the negative by Albert Aronson, ' 35 and Joseph Zibbell, ' 36. The affirmative emerged victorious, but only after a spirited clash of French syllogisms, distinctions, and e.Kclamations. These oratorical masterpieces were only part of a well-balanced pro- gram which included the interpretation of French Musical Classics by members of the College Orchestra. From this variegated consideration of French Literature in general, a transition was made at the start of the second term into the more particular field of French Romanticism. The influence of such French Litterateurs as Chateaubriand, Senan- cour, de Musset, de Maistre, Hugo, de Vigny, and Nadier became the source of many interesting hours spent among the French Romanticists. The work of many seniors in this phase of the program predominated the discussions, as Leo Leveille, A. Mar- cus Lewis, Nazzareno Cedrone, William Joyce, Edward Kelly, John Ryan, and Thomas Yetman more than distinguished themselves by their tireless efforts. These men, through their assimilation of knowledge of French, have, without a doubt, added that poli.sh and refinement to their speech and literary capacities that really characterizes the man, four-square of Horace. We cannot help but admire all these examples of what an efficient Academy can and should accomplish. To Le Pere whose kind words and generous aid we shall always remember, we extend our congratulations for his conscientious super vision of the Academy, and our wishes for its continued success, although superflu- ous, are sincere. % the l9H(®suifuni gas John J. Fogarty, ' 34 Roy W. Lynch, ' 35 John A. Keeley, ' 36 During our Senior Year, many of the students donned the cloak of a Don Quixote to seek adventure in the Romance Literature of Spain. The Scene was set in I a Academia Espanol and Sefior Fogarty was the presiding officer. The Academy is one of the oldest in the college and since its inception in 1924 has been under the supervision of Mr. Frederick S. Conlin, professor of English and Spani.sh. To read, to write, and to speak Spanish fluently was the pri mary objective of the members. The opening session of the weekly meetings was devoted to the peculiarities and technicalities of the euphonic structure of the Spanish Language and a com- parison of its effectiveness with the other Romance Languages. Next, in accordance with the system of lectures planned by Mr. Conlin and President Fogarty, the members of the Academy discus.sed the customs and habits of the Spanish people and a survey was made of Spain ' s political status and sociological problems. Another feature of the Academy ' s work was the presentation of several short plays which afforded the members an opportunity to display their dramatic as well as linguistic talents. The ino.st amusing of the.se were La Seiiora y La Mendiga and El Barbero de Seville. These plays were co-ordinated with a study of Spanish Folk-lore and Drama. One of the chief contributions of the year was Cervantes and an Appreciation of Don Quixote, delivered by Mr. Fogarty. the 1930suHtitn Second Row: Tierney, Scully, Quinlan, Coffey, Cahalane, Quinn.

The Academy, founded as it was to complement the elective course in Eco- nomics by applying the general principles learned in class to current economic conditions, devoted itself this year to a detailed study of the National Recovery Administration. The Moderator, Mr. Raymond E. Fox, S.J., at the start of the school year, divided the National Recovery Administration into its component parts. Each member was permitted to select that portion of the plan in which he was most interested. He then became the specialist in that particular field. In addi- tion to answering questions pertaining to his subject, he was obliged to give a twenty-minute talk on this topic during the course of the year. This plan was believed to be most fea.sible. First of all, it stressed individual research on the part of each member; and secondly, each member, besides being instructed in the subject of his choice, had a well-rounded knowledge of the entire National Recovery Administration and, as a result, could talk intelligently about it. With such an intensive program, and with T. Harney Donahue as president, it is obvious that the Academy had a most successful year. facts, theories, and hypotheses of modern physics. Once a week some embryonic Newton or Einstein enlightened his fellow-members with a masterly dissertation of profound and amazing innovations in the scientific world. Once a week, in short, the Physics Academy assembled. The main purpose of the Academy was to discuss and investigate modern scien- tific discoveries and inventions. Thus, the fundamental laws and theories of physics were applied in a more detailed and complicated manner than could be followed in the General Physics course. The subjects for the lectures were many and varied, ranging from the multiple forms of Radio-activity and Electro-dynamics to Television, Acoastics, and the synchronization of sound effect in the Talking Pictures. Each member of the Acad- emy familiarized himself with some special phase of these topics and, during the weekly seminars, imparted the fruits of his research work to the other members. Any difficulties which could not be explained by the speaker were elucidated by Fr. Tobin, S.J., head of the Physics Department and Moderator of the Academy. Experiments were often the means of verification of theories. Deft hands would pluck instruments from the midst of retorts, crossed wires, glowing tubes, and bubbling liquids to bring about a most marvelous result, at least in the eyes of the neophyte ; but for the veteran the processes were simplicity itself. Thus, each member of the Academy became an authority on some special phase of Physics and who knows but that some day we shall say, Yes, he ' s the famous Physicist. I heard his first speech before the Physics Academy at Boston College. s PROGRAM OF LECTURES Seminar Directora Fr. John A. Tobin, S.J., Moderator Mr. F. Malcolm Gager, B.S., M.S., and Mr. H.

Among the devotees, the punctuality and faithfulness of Dave Ascher and Ike Gerren have become noteworthy; while the rapt attention and critical comments of Joe Burke and John Broderick are well worthy of mention here. Bill McDonald, John Feeney, and Jim Larkin are other stal- wart members who constantly enliven and impress these assemblies with their keen and penetrating logic. Then, too, the intelligent and appreciative attention of Paul Boylan and John Sheehan, coupled with the cogency of their facile remarks, are a delight to any lecturer. During the Scholastic Year 1933-34 the Academy has concentrated its atten- tion on the fields of Colloidal and Organic Chemistry, two comparatively unde- veloped spheres, which offer unlimited opportunity to the energetic and enterprising chemist. Remembering the veritable litany of chemists which the Catholic Church has nurtured and reared, it is to be hojjed that from these meetings may be gleaned the nucleus of some theory or principle which will place its author in the select com- pany of such immortals as Roger Bacon, Pasteur, and Lavoisier. For, it is through such men as these that Science and Chemistry in particular are creating a Democ- racy such as no legislature ever has been; and the Church is refuting that pernicious lie that she is the opponent rather than the patron of Science.

In memory of that great Catholic historian Von Pastor, there was instituted at the College several years ago an Historical Society for the discussion of various epoch- making topics of the day, and for the analysis of past eras in the light of present day discoveries in historical research work. There is no doubt that the present year is replete with subject matter for discussion; for it is a period of religious struggle, racial intolerance, and national crises, and consequently, provides a colorful back- ground for the treatment of many important questions. Thus, we can see that with President Roosevelt ' s National Recovery Act, Hitlerism in Germany, Russia and her problems, and National Revolution in Spain, there was no lack of subjects for the lectures of the Society. Mr. Kirley, S.J., the Moderator of the Society, secured many well known speak- ers and authorities on the topics in question. Two of the mo.st important speakers of the year were Rev. Louis J. Gallagher, S. J., President of the College, and Rev.J.F.X. Murphy, History Professor in the Graduate School. Fr. Gallagher gave a most dis- cerning lecture concerning the recognition of Russia and the various problems which such recognition would present to the United States. He is a well known authority on the subject, for he has just completed a survey of the Economical and Sociological problems of the peasant people, and today as a result, he is recognized as one of the leading Catholic authorities on the true situation in Russia. Fr. J. F. X. Murphy, well known and beloved by the whole student body, spoke several times on Chaucer and his influence on history. The subject matter, interesting in itself and delivered by the inimitable J. F. X., as we all know him, attracted a full house every time. As can easily be seen, with such an array of lectures, the Historical Society, soon became a rendezvous for history enthusiasts. Gerard G. Barry, ' 34 was elected President and proved a most capable leader. Francis P. Donovan, ' ,S6 was appointed as secretary of the Society, in which position he proved himself very competent, ever watchful that no slip-up occurred in the arrangements, and keeping a careful record of the meetings. The following lectures were delivered before the members of the Society: October 24, 1933— Speaker: Rev. Francis Driscoll, S.J. Subject: The political, social, and economic aspects of the National Recovery Act. November 15, 1933 — Speaker: Rev. Jones I. Corrigan, S.J. Subject: The Totali- tarian State in Germany, December 13, 1933— Speaker: Rev. Francis X. Mulligan, S.J. Subject: Il- lustrated lecture on the religious situation in Mexico.

The Prioress. w mm « (he l934@suHutn f- A keener interest in the Greek language and greater love for Greek art and liter- ature than could be satisfied in the ordinary class routine, inspired the formation several years ago, of an extra-curricular Greek Academy. This organization offered excellent opportunity for concentrated study in Greek drama, poetry, and phil- osophy. The success of the Academy since its institution has been manifested by its increasing popularity and the high quality of its literary achievements. Mr. Joseph P. Shanahan, S.J., has been a capable advisor in his position as Faculty Director and the program carried out under his supervision has merited considerable praise. As a reward for merit, Carl J. Thayer, Jr., 36, was elected President; the secre- taryship went to William P. Colpoys, Jr., ' 36. The present program has been offered with a two-fold motive. The first has been the fostering of an appreciation for the better-known poetry and drama. As basic text, Greek Antholoc y met with popular approval. The famous works of Sophocles, Euripedes, and Homer were treated with a particular regard to the poetic and dramatic excellences. The choral odes, particularly, as examples of the highest form of lyric poetry were given careful con- sideration. The second motive of the program was the translation of Greek literature in prose form. The exact English word or phrase to convey the literal meaning of the original text was carefully chosen. The resulting renditions were of true literary value. The texts for translation were also drawn from the orations of Demosthenes and the philosophy of Plato. Although Greece cannot claim all the splendor of the classics, still she may justly assert her title to a large share of the world ' s wealth of literature and art. To envision the glory of Athens at the height of her power from the original language of her scholars and historians is the privilege of the translator of classic Greek. To analyze Aristotle ' s own words is infinitely more profitable for training in thought formation than to rely upon a commentator and guide. The Greek Academy gave the perfect opportunity for acquiring such facility. The vista opened up to the student of Greek art, history, and literature is one that cannot be duplicated. The Greek Academy has been able to broaden consider- ably, by its presentation of a portion of this panorama, the necessarily circumscribed appreciation of Greek epic, historical, and dramatic authors required in the class- room. The avid Hellenist whose interest had been aroused by classroom study, found in the Greek Academy the desired open door for a complete study of Greek life. (he I934®su6fMnt Joseph E. Donovan, ' 35 John C. Donelan, ' 37 Steven Fleming, ' 35 William J. Landrey, ' 35 Paul V. Power, Mr. L. R. Ecker, S.J. The Dante Academy of Boston College is the youngest society in the College and has already given promise for great future development. Pope Benedict XV of happy memory, in his Encyclical Letter To our beloved sons the professors and students of all the Catholic institutions for instruction in literature and higher cul- ture addresses them as follows : Love and hold dear the poet (Dante) whom we do not hesitate to proclaim the most eloquent singer of Christian wisdom. The more you study him, the higher will be your culture, irradiated by the splendors of truth, and the stronger and more spontaneous will be your homage to the Catholic Faith. It is in response to this plea of His late Holiness that this Academy has been organ- ized. The purpose of the Academy is to study and appreciate the works of Dante and thereby increase interest in the wealth of Dantean literature. ' To this end the meetings are conducted informally and consist largely in a full understanding of the text followed by points of literary appreciation and contributions by individual members. The high calibre of the meetings and the genuine interest already mani- fested in the work of the academy has been more than gratifying and the Dante Academy promises to be one of the College ' s proudest boasts.

Keeley, Jr., ' 36 To watch a band filing along the city streets amid martial splendor, to see this same band proudly flaunt its banners to an awe-stricken multitude, is to see a thrill- ing sight; to feel the .steady, unswerving beat of march music coming from a regiment of .stalwart soldiers, preserving therein that absolute precision and simultaneous left . . . left, is to experience a feeling of tingling admiration; and so to a college man, seeing his own school band entering the arena of intercollegiate warfare, so lavi.shly decorated with the true college colors and resounding with the echoes of victory .songs, there comes a heart-tickling sensation of inward pride for the team that is to represent his cause on the field of battle. Such was the eftect of the B. C. band on the endless rows of students assembled in our own Coliseum of athletics. There were no dress-paraders with capes flapping rhy thmically in the wind ; there were no belt and brass-button boys scintillating under a € Hit 1934 rasuftfutn w- sunny sky; there was, however, the band, our own classmates, now entertainingN now marching, now playing, and ever sustaining the never-say-die spirit which characterized the success of our glorious football team. In fact, the Band, with Ted Marier as its peerless baton- wielder, became for our Saturday afternoon radio audi- ence almost as great an attraction as the football game itself. Even in defeat we felt that all was not lost. Though the ' 34: football team was vanquished in the Fordham game, for example, the Band emphatically and definitely asserted its superiority over the corresponding New York contingent. John Bonner, ' 34, decorously swung the stick in the march down the field while we noted among the playing pipers of the class: A. Kenneth Carey, James J. Deary, Leo A. Hogan, John A. Keating, Gerard A. Weidman, Granville R. Jones, Robert T. O ' Reilly, Joseph E. AVarren, Francis T. Russell, and James L. Flynn. Another channel of musical expression is developed by the combined orchestral and glee club units of the College. This group, comprised of eighty men from the student-body, has left behind it an enviable trail of musical conquests throughout Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York. The programs of the concerts were of a very classical nature and the artistic interpretation of various arias by the members of the club elicited universal praise from the critics. Among the outstanding orchestra renditions might be included: Phedre, an overture by Massenet, Moorish Serenade by Chappi, La Columbe by Gounod, and the stirring Triumphal March of Grieg. Flegier ' s Love Song was beautifully rendered in a trumpet solo arrangement by James J. Deary, ' 34. The equal facility of the Glee Club in presenting a variety of selections could be well ascertained by a mere consideration of its successes. The repertoire of the Club was interspersed contrastingly and effectively with old European folk songs, musical gems from the most dramatic operas, and liturgical excerpts, which in- variably proved to be the highlights of every program. Soloistic endeavors were enthusiastically greeted at every performance as may be seen by the laudatory remarks passed on the efforts of Leo F. Scully, ' 34, baritone soloist, Theodore N. Marier, ' 34, pianist, James M. Buckley, ' 34, concert master and violin soloist, who capably stepped in at the illness of Robert A. San Souci, ' 36. The managerial duties of the College ' s musical activities were efficiently handled by Edward G. Halligan and James G. Fay, both of senior. The concerts, arranged and contracted for so diligently, possessed a very cos- mopolitan tinge. Such localities as Milton, Jordan Hall, New York, Woonsocket, West Roxbury, Pittsfield, and Weston received the benefits of our musical accom- plishments. The list was completed by concerts at Regis and Emmanuel, an orches- tral broadcast for unemployment relief, and two Catholic Truth broadcasts by the Glee Club. The climax of the season was realized in a combined concert with the Holy Cross Musical Club at the Copley Plaza. For all this array of talent and activity we must of necessity render our heart- felt thanks to our untiring and enthusiastic moderator, Rev. Leo J. Gilleran, S.J. We tip our hats, also, to the musical director, James Ecker, for his remarkable work this year especially. So inspiring a precedent as has been set by these men and their talented organization certainly leaves a high mark to be attained. w tht 1934® swftf urn Third Row: Crowley, Crowley, Warren, Halligan, Fay, Deary, Weidman, Pike.

The Repertory was well filled with an apprecia- tive audience as the curtains rolled up to the tune of California, Here We Come. Frank Brow, ' 34, Walter Herlihy, ' 35, and Raymond Belliveau. ' 35 carried the leads with professional ease. John Hurley, ' 34, Joseph Warren, ' 34, and Gerald Weidman, ' 34, contributed excellent portrayals in their respective roles, and Hugo Durst, ' 37, as the inimitable Susan Walker, was hilarious. C. Edward Long, David Cohen, John Fallon, and William Joyce, all of senior, were but a few of the talented supporting cast. California, Here We Come expresses the theme of the story that carries the inseparable three from the bottom of the ham actors ' world to the top of the cinema world, over a course of uproariously funny takes, retakes and mistakes. With the new-born voice of Vitaphone ringing in the ears of the movie-world, the trio hit upon their one big IDEA, trek to Hollywood and sponsor a school of voice culture supposedly imported from England. In the mad hey-day of Hollywood, their progress is continually being menaced by the stupid antics of George Lewis, riotously characterized by Frank V. Brow, ' 34. But in the end this same stupid clown becomes the rage of Hollywood, and his slightest gesture becomes the trend of the cinema world. Between the acts, three operatic arias in as many languages, rendered by the versatile Soapy Waters, were enthusiastically received and impetuously encored. After the great success of this dramatic entree, the Society determined to obtain a production which would afford a wider latitude of expression for the talent and histrionic ability of its members. After much discussion, Hamlet. Prince of Denmark was selected as the second production of the year. There is no doubt that such a play as this was a mo.st appropriate choice and fitting climax to the work of the Society. The tragic figure of Hamlet, characterized by the capable Theodore N. Marier, ' 34, moves the audience with sorrow and pity. Walter Herlihy, ' 35, as King Claudius, invites hatred and enmity, while the rolling and majestic voice of Robert J. Glen- non, ' 34, more than predominates the role of the Flayer King. An equally fine charac- terization is of Polonius and falls to the lot of Stanley Driscoll, ' 37. The cloak of Horatio, furthermore, is most fortunately donned by the clever Mr. Brow. Other important parts are taken by Joseph E. Warren, ' 34, John J. Hurley, ' 34. Walter H. Casey, ' 34, Joseph R. St. Pierre, ' 36, and John F. Donelan, ' 37. With this variety of plays and players, with tragedy and comedy stalking across the stage, laugiiter and tears were evoked by these future Barrymores to the enchantment and delight of the audiences. And after all, in making us forget the cares of life a little, in presenting to us a little bit of iiumor, of pathos, of love, they have grasped the Eudaimonia of the Thespian art. M (he l934@suHutn rHJrH r — r ' Tis strange, but true, that man loves nothing better than to look at himself in a mirror. And true it is, too, that drama, real drama, is nothing more than a mirror of life — a mirror which reflects a vivid struggle, man ' s reactions to difficulties, his failures and triumphs, his happiness and sorrow. The Dramatics Society has always managed, both in its selection of productions and in the presentation of them upon the stage, to place our thespian endeavors among the best in intercollegiate circles. AVhen first, as freshmen, we timidly stepped onto the stage of college dramatics. Lord Lytton ' s Richelieu, produced at the same time as Belloc ' s biography, was the goal of our theatrical aspirations. Henry Leen, as the Red Duke, skillfully un- folded his complex character. Julie de Mortemar was portrayed by Arthur C. King, one of the cleverest female impersonators ever discovered at B. C. Other important roles were taken by Edward J. Herlihy, Walter Herlihy, and Frank Mulligan. Representing the present Senior Class were Herbert A. Kenny and Thomas J. Connaughton. In sophomore, turning first to the romantic field of dramatic art. Beau Brummel was presented to the followers of the stage. In consequence of the great success of this play, the Society determined to attempt another production and chose for its favorite the Shakespearean tragedy Othello. Mr. Edward J. Herlihy played the lead in both productions. As the Beau in the romantic comedy, we see him the proud, nonchalant, foppish gentleman of fashion .striding before us in his grandeur, and yet by the admirable use of artistic restraint, the actor produces the proper alchemy of pathos and heroism to create a very human and dramatic character. Leo J. Flynn, as Mortimer, gave us a pantomime artist of very rare ability. Joseph Warren, Vice-President of this year ' s Dramatic Society, played the role of Harry Vincent, and the Class of ' 35 was represented by Steven Fleming, Clement O ' Brien, and Cyril O ' Brien. Stage scene from Caffain Applejack. 4.5.5 the 1934® snftfutrt Tomaso Salvini ' s version was se- lected for the dramatization of Othello. Mr. Herliliy characterized Othello. Opposing Herlihy in the villain ' s role, we find the clever actor Frank Mulli- gan, who, as the sly, sneaking lago, was as villainous a rogue as ever we wish to see. The very difficult task offered by the part of Desdemona was successfully accomplished by Joseph Warren, whose capabilities anticipated the parts which he has played this year. Underclassmen who lent their talents to this dramatic production were: Francis Healy, ' 35, Charles Daly, ' 35, Cyril O ' Brien, ' 35, and Clement O ' Brien, ' 35. Rollicking Captain Applejack called forth our thespian interests in our junior year. Romantic in theme and adventurous in action, the first scene reveals the de- sires of an old man, Maurice Allison, for adventure. Magic metamorphosis occurs in the second act. We are transported to a pirate galleon, where we find Captain Applejack stalking the deck, cutlass in hand, and the Jolly Roger o ' erhead. To summarize the third act succinctly, we might quote the old butler, who says, Old Maurice ' andles the situation very, very well. Frank Mulligan, in the leading role, dis- played his usual histrionic ability and, with the fine supporting cast composed of John Hanrahan, Kenneth Kelly, Leo Flynn, Edward Merrick, Louis Mer- cier, Steven Fleming, and Charles Daly the play maintained the high standard of previous Boston College produc- tions. Thence to senior, where, as a final test, we offered the two Dramatics productions Once in a Lifetime and Hamlet, Prince of Denmark. That drama will always exist as long as there is life on this old planet of ours is obvious, but that drama will always maintain a high standard of worth and morality depends upon the unceasing efforts of our thespians to keep it ever representative of the true and noble ideals of life. 450 Pirate Scene from Captain Applejack fhe 1934@5u6fuw € iL m M. There is inherent in every college student the desire to be successful in whatever career he undertakes. It was through this desire that the Business Club materialized into an active organization for the inhibition of financial doctrines from successful business men. Thus, at each meeting, a man who was particularly successful in some branch of business whether in Mercantile, Banking or Manufacturing endeavors, gave a talk embodying his business methods, ethics and ideals. Consequently, through the discriminating selections of our President Lenehan O ' Connell in this regard, we were able to obtain not merely successful men, but successful men who propagated the proper attitude toward Business Ethics. For, if any field can use a system of Ethics, it is the business field with its many-fold opportunities for unfair, though legally legitimate, dealings with fellow man. Besides this knowledge gained from the lectures of business training, certain of the members were able to take advantage of the opportunities offered and place their names for positions with the men who lectured. Consequently, they not only gained a theoretical knowledge of business principles, but also a concrete opportunity for active participation. If the Business Club continues in the same manner in the future as it has in the past, we feel certain that more B. C. men will be placed in positions more deserving of their worth, and in such posts they will have ample opportunity to further ( atholic principles.

But seriously, the Military Club has accomplished a great deal since its incep- tion. It was the seed from which sprang the two minor sports, the Rifle Team and the Fencing Team, and it is now endeavoring to establish a Reserve Officers Training Corps unit at the college. The importance of having such a unit at the college cannot be overestimated and a realization of the need of Catholic college graduates in the Military Field is gradually being recognized by those in authority. With this in view therefore, the officers in the club have studied the situation, secured the facts and information from the government relative to the establishment of an R.O.T.C., and have placed the data before the Faculty of the college for consideration. They feel sure that as soon as an arrangement can be perfected so that the Military Courses will not con- flict with the schedule of studies, the R.O.T.C. will be incorporated in the curricula of the college. At present, practically all the more important Catholic colleges in America give courses in Military Science, and it is only natural that Boston College should keep apace with other educational institutions in this regard as she has always done in all others.

The purpo.se of the club, briefly, is to give Boston College more extensive and better organized publicity; to this efTect, each correspondent seeks to cover the activities of the College accurately and completely. In previous years, the Press Club has not been as well organized as its impor- tance warranted. Thus, while each member reported .school activities faithfully, there was lacking the cooperation and unity of purpose which should characterize the ideal press organization. An attempt has been made to form the Club into a more compact unit, to release news adequately and regularly — in a word, to restore Boston College activities to their proper place in the public eye. In doing this, the Press Club has benefited the College to a great extent. To take but one example, the efficiency with which it covered the ' 34 football season in the various newspapers certainly manife.sts the influence of the club. Finally, the successful way in which the club has overcome the inadequate press facilities of the college should instill in the members a feeling of satisfaction that they have e.stablished and strengthened a new bond of understanding between Boston College and the outside world. the 1934©sntfutn Frank J.

In it may be found the transmitting and sending apparatus of the club. The receiving apparatus consists of two sensitive sets of popular, modern design. The transmitting apparatus consists at present of a -lO-meter, continuous wave transmitter, and a 5-meter radio telephone outfit. Plans are under way for several new transmitters to be constructed by the members of the club. There are several licensed radio operators in the club and opportunity is given to new members to learn the code, together with other matter necessary for the obtaining of a license. The activity of the club is well attested to by the niunerous cards received from France, Germany, Spain, South Australia, Canada, and almost every one of the United States. Even the farthest places report the strength of our signals. At present, a plan is under way to establish a schedule for handling messages between Boston College, Georgetown, and Woodstock. It is the boast of the Radio Club that the name of Boston College is known in parts of the world where it would remain unknown were it not for the activities of this organization. flit 1934@s 6futn . BB. OFFICERS President John Conlin Vice-President J. E. Cameron Durant Secretary Charles V. Manganelli Treasurer Nicholas J. Fiumara The Pre-Medical Club was formed in March of the current year. Father Francis J. Dore, S.J., Head of the Department of Biology, was appointed Moderator and meetings have been held regularly during the third hour on Thursdays for the pur- pose of discussing questions relating to biological science and medical ethics. This organization fills a definite need. Its formation has unified the Senior Pre- medical students who are prevented by a strenuous class and laboratory schedule from sharing much of the extra-curricular activities of the College. The purpose and conduct of the Pre-Medical Club are intended to render its members betterqualified for the splendid profession they intend to follow. This Club, the newest, yet one of the most vigorous growths of our college life, is already productive of much good. As a result of its formation a deeper friendship has grown among the members, their knowledge has been increased and there has developed a greater spirit of cooperation with the faculty and a deeper appreciation for their excellent instruction and personal interest in the Pre-Medical group. It is fitting that such an organization should have its place in our college life. The Pre-Medical Club should crystallize in its members the classical and scientific lore which they have received from their Alma Mater and from its ranks students should go out to the medical schools as groups and as individuals, a credit to Boston College and worthy followers of the graduates who have preceded them in the field of medicine. The present members intend to reunite annually and they join in the sincere wish that the project they have so well begun will be continued by those who are to follow. -Ki ' 2 (he 193 (M$tt6furn ' ' Jt bJlatorcmftct(6lon oriaw i i FIRST FRIDAY DEVOTIONS Freshman and Sophomore Junior and Senior Director, Rev.

Warren « the !934@sti6(uTn ffl RETREATS There is given the student at Boston College a weekly period early in each year during which the spiritual life of the season is introduced by the hand of the Master of the Retreat. These short moments which have become sacred and happy mem- ories are the soul of our spiritual training, the pillar of the ideal Catholic Education. But this pillar must be faultlessly founded and ceaselessly fostered if the super- structure of Christian culture is to assume sincerity and integrity, and it is for this purpose that the period of Retreat is observed. The principles and doctrines of our Faith are reviewed and revived in us; new relationships become known. Our general conduct in the past is held up in the light of these principles, judged, and the conclusion left to the will of each individual. Then, when the conclusion becomes determination, confession is heard and our Retreat ends with the Reception of the Blessed Sacrament. We have been exceptionally fortunate in having as Retreat Masters men whom we have come to know, and by knowing, to respect and love. As freshmen. Rev. William M. Stinson, S.J., introduced us into the spiritual life of Boston College, when we learned the great importance of the union of moral and mental development. One year later. Rev. Thomas Feeney, S.J., revealed our three-fold relation to God, to man, and to self, and the obligation which this entails. Entering as novice philosophers, we next reasoned to the value of the human soul under the guidance of Rev. Joseph Williams, S.J. Finally, as seniors, we came to the fourth and most important of all our re- treats; meeting Rev. Charles O ' Brien, S.J., we were made to realize the vastness of this steady development — to be intelligent, positive seekers of God because we are of God — to be true with all our might to His supreme command to us, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind, and to the second, like unto this, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. THE JUNIOR-SENIOR SODALITY More than ever, the Junior-Senior Sodality asserted its influence on the stu- dents of Boston College during ' 33- ' 34. Its lofty aim in furthering Catholic action has gained widespread renown, especially by the unprecedented production of a play treating of the proof of the Divinity of Christ in a practical manner. Rev. Michael J. Harding, S.J., directed the production and spent many weeks in drilling the Dra- matis Personae. That it was successful is evidenced by the fact that the play was enacted before the Catholic Club of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Saint Paul ' s Catholic Club of Harvard, and various councils of the Knights of Columbus. There is no doubt that with this innovation in Sodality activity, next year should prove the best season in religious work that Boston College has yet witnessed. On April 11, 1934, a reception of Seniors and Juniors into the Sodality was held before the entire Senior and Junior classes. With such an auspicious season of spir- itual activity recorded in the annals of the College, the members of the Sodality are well equipped to face the tremendous moral problems of life. -tfis FB c tilt I93i® snfttunt v J z: great Saint carries tl)e Cross of Cf)rtst to tfje peoples of tfte Snbics. ®f)ousanbS enter tfte folb of tfje TLMnz Cfjurcl).

The most illustrious of all the graduates of Boston College is His Eminence, William Cardinal O ' Connell. A list of his honors and achievements merits the deep- est reverence for his name, and of these we may mention that he was seminarian in Rome, curate at Boston, Rector of the North American College in Rome, Bishop of Portland, Assistant at the Pontifical Throne, papal envoy to Japan, recipient of the Grand (Gordon of the Sacred Treasure at the hand of the Mikado, Archbishop of Boston, member of the Sacred College of Cardinals, and Dean of the Catholic Hierarchy of America. Truly, this history of ecclesiastical achievement is the pride of those who are privileged to look up to His Eminence as their fellow alumnus. Following in the footsteps of His Eminence, many other graduates of Boston College have scaled the peaks of success in their chosen profession. Some of these men are members of the clergy — the highest and noblest of all walks of life. Others have become lawyers, physicians, professors, legislators, and holders of public office. These men, as a group, have been a credit to Boston College. In municipal, state, and national life they have given the College a reputation for graduates with character, possessing broad, practical knowledge of the world and human nature. The Boston College Alumni Association, through the generosity of its members, has contributed much to the financial support of the College ' s scholastic and athletic endeavors. In September of 1933, a Garden Party was conducted at University Heights, the proceeds of which were presented to the College by the Association. During the scholastic year 1933-34, the Association sponsored the publishing of a magazine of its own, the Alumnus, which was capably edited by John F. Collins, ' ■20. The purpose of this publication is to disseminate news concerning Alma Mater and the alumni. Only such an organ as the Aluimius can bind together more firmly the graduates of Boston College. This is an ideal type of alumni journal, and it can only continue as such with the firm support of the graduate body. It is highly essen- tia] to the life of the Organization and to the basic aims of Alma Mater. The Alumni Association tendered its Victory Banquet to the varsity football team of ' 33 at the Hotel Kenmore. The lettermen were presented with sweaters, gifts of the alumni, and gold footballs, gifts of the Athletic Association. Very Rev- erend Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., President of Boston College, and Rev. Francis V. Sullivan, S.J., Faculty Director of Athletics at the Heights, were among the most distinguished and favored speakers at the affair. It is obvious enough to what extent the Association has striven to back up the scholastic and athletic spirit at the Heights. This solicitude is most encouraging to both the faculty and friends of Alma Mater, since it proves that the excellent success and honors which have come to the graduates have not dimmed in any degree their loyalty and allegiance to the loving preceptor of their formative years. 4fiS (he 1934 ®su6 (urn BROCKTON: membership chiefly of undergraduates . . . monthly meetings . . . annual formal . . . most prominent are: Walter O ' Neil, Thomas Joyce, William Slye, Charles Roland, William C.

From the first year of its inception, this splendid body of women, composed mainly of mothers and relatives of the College graduates and undergraduates, has been marvelously pro- gressive in its special, self-appointed program of proffering moral and financial support to the men at the College. The beautiful, comfortably-appointed Philomatheia clubrooms have always been cheerfully turned over to College activities on request. The beautiful surround- ings and hospitable atmosphere which have now become inseparably associated with the semi-annual public debates a nd concours oratories of the French Academy are due entirely to the generosity and kindness of the Philomatheia Club. The College Musical Club has also made presentations at the Clubhouse which were enthusia.stically received and rendered unforgettable in large measure by the beautiful .setting in which they were held. The past year has .seen a very special manifestation of the warm place in their hearts that the women of the Club have for the men at the Heights. The splendid success of the ' 33 football team was the occasion for tendering the entire squad a banquet at the Clubhouse. At this gathering, a beautiful cup was presented to Captain Frank Maloney, to be given in permanent possession to the B. C. or H. C. team first winning three successive games. Yet the Club has unquestionably spread the greatest happiness by its financial assfstance to a large number of young men who otherwise could never have had the opportunity to attend Boston College. Under the able and humane direction of its beloved Spiritual Director and Treasurer, the Rev. Daniel J. Lynch, S.J., the Philomatheia Club has dedicated itself most devotedly to this crying need. It is a task which exacts true sacrifice of its members. The good which the Club is doing has become indispensable and is certainly deserving of the highest commendation and praise. The Junior Philomatheia Club is an organization closely affiliated with the Senior Philomatheia group. The main purpose in founding the Junior Club was to give young women, whose families are associated in any way with Boston College, an opportunity to further, through concerted action, Catholic social and educational aims. Actually, this purpose is achieved by the several annual socials of all varieties conducted by the Club in a Catholic spirit. Moreover, the educational program ol Boston College receives their most gratifying support. Those extra-curricular activi- ties of the College ' s undergraduate student body which oft ' er the greatest opportun- ity for the individuals to develop their talents to real advantage, both for Boston College and for themselves, are precisely the affairs to which the members of the Junior Philomatheia Club are most devoted. Their whole-hearted support of the Class of ' 34 in its presentation of the musical extravaganza Dick Whittington as an integral part of Junior Week is in itself enough to manifest the sincerity of these young women in their praiseworthy endeavors.

J € nH Joyous perturbation filled the being of every freshman. For, was it not the evening of April 30, 1931, the long-awaited night of the Freshman Promenade? Indeed the time had finally arrived to disprove that old adage, Expectation ex- ceeds reality. Eagerly anticipatory, scrupulously meticulous in our black and white, accompanied by the reigning queen of our amatory desires, we eventually arrived at the Louis Quatorze Ballroom of the Hotel Somerset. Once within the portals, reality seeped into our minds as misty masses became individuals. To our utter amazement we stared at our classmates for some mark of identification, something that might conceivably impress upon our minds that these smooth, glistening countenances were the same upon which so recently the fuzz of budding maturity grew thickly and fiercely in all directions. After such observation we were engulfed in the whirling mass on the ballroom floor displaying our varied terpsichorean ability and inability. But to what avail ? Invariably and intermittently our steps led us to the semi-circle grouped about the orchestral platform to watch and hear better this scintillating rhythm. As the dull flush of animation suft ' used our countenances, we hesitated, glanced inquiringly at one another, and then voiced. with no mute expressions our mutual wonder of this Casa Loma Band. This newly created collegiate sensation, the music of which was emotional, dramatic, unique and masterly in the excruciating pleasure it aroused, tossed us about like twigs on its turbulent sea of rhythm. Encore after encore of the evening ' s highlights, Alexander ' s Rag-Time Band, and Put on Your Old Gray Bonnet, the animated vocalizing of which was rendered by Pee-wee Hunt, were uproariously demanded. If ever a band had musical magic at their finger tips, it was this Casa Loma Band under the direction of dapper Mel Jensen. Ken Sargent ' s beautiful falsetto so thrilled that the strain of condescen- sion, so deeply rooted in the upper classmen who dropped in, disappeared like magic, relaxing their tension and .smoothing their countenances into perfect ease. Marshalled during the intermission, at the hour of midnight our entire fresh- man class marched along the sides of the ballroom and down the centre, led by President Gregory Sullivan and the Promenade Chairman, William Parks, amid the cheers of guests, .showers of confetti, and multi-colored streamers, creating an exhaustless gallery of beautiful impressions. As hilarity seemed to reach its highest m.omentum the final orchestral strains drove us reluctant, full-blooded collegiate urchins to our singular battered convey- ances, to drive home in the starlight, the soft sky wrapped in a tangible silence, it seemed, as the memory of our Freshman Promenade red as a rocket shot to its seat of glory in the freshman social annals of B.

Keleher Frederick Kingsley William J. Parks Gulniinating a year of stremioiis mental activity, tiie evening of April 17, 1932, was truly set aside for the relaxation of the intellect and the determination of the will to witness and abet the death of sophomore socials and hear tidings of the birth of our Junior year activities. The Imperial Ballroom of the Hotel Statler was the altar on which the death knell was sounded. Soft lights, refracting and reflecting the divergent rays of the gold, red and blue lantern of crystal drops, suspended from the ceiling invested us sophomoric wise fools in glamour, while in the ever- changing shadows of its flickering glow the movements of the twirling masses rejiresented the sinuousness of a serpent, writhing and winding about our altar of sacrifice. Threading our way forward, we heard the Casa Loma Band demonstrating to the world at large, through the broadcasting facilities of WAAB, the reason for its return engagement for the Class of ' 34. This unprecedented innovation was later repeated with station WNAC doing the honors. Mainiacs Ball as played by this band was characteristic of the entire affair, quickening our every nerve and sense to its highest pitch of excitement. Reckless abandon, spontaneous laughter, and unadulterated joy shone on every face like a fire whose leaping blaze was burned to a steady glow. The substitution of a spotlight dance in place of the grand march proved an interesting event. As usual, most of us were in the wrong spot, but nevertheless we applauded wholeheartedly the couple on the right spot instead of mourning them as we would have if they were in the same predicament in Chicago rather than Boston. Although not officially on the program just one of those things occurred during the intermission, and it proved highly amusing. Appearing very attractive in a white gown a young lady, although disappointing us by not sitting on the piano in Helen Morgan style, but sitting rather on the edge of the orchestral platform rendered several songs of glamorous youth — so wild — so short and so sweet, in true defiant ecstacy. With the resumption of dance music the strains of Love Is So Old, the newest composition of our class maestro, Ted Marier, a.ssisted in the lyrics by Herb Kenny, smote our ears in delightful fashion displaying the sublime and ineradicable ambition of youth. Light-heartedness reigned supreme as we beguiled away the hours with inexhaustible energy, until the river of youth ' s madness quenched the fires of our sacrifice and the ever-delightful Smoke-Rings curled upward from the Casa Loma Band spelling death to the culmination of a brilliant sophomore year of social activity. 17S R « the 1934@)$tt6furn In a mad scramble, after hearing Mass and receiving Holy Communion, we reached the Senior Assembly Hall where McKeon and Casby certainly satisfied our appetites with an abundance of tasty dishes. During our repast, the Junior Pic, making its initial appearance, gained instant approval. The impressiveness of such a gathering, wherein all present were in the state of Sanctifying Grace, was clarified and lauded by Father McHugh in his encouraging and complimentary address. Johnny Freitas, who planned this excellent affair, then presented Father Tobin and he, who in class seemed to be composed of watts, dynes, and ergs, proved him- self a delightfully interesting rational being. Finally, not because of, but merely after Soapy Waters offered several musical tunes from Dick Whittington, did we conclude this auspicious beginning of Jimior Week. After we had whiled away four dreary hours of morning classes, rushed home, hurriedly dressed, and called for Her, we arrived at the Hotel Kenmore ' s Crystal Ballroom as late as everybody else. It was no novelty, but pleasant indeed, to dance, to Armando Corea and his orchestra whose Chateau Basque most of us have patron- ized during the winter and at whose beach Chateau we basked during the summer. The influx of students so overflowed the room that those of us who, now and then, count one, two, three, slide, after getting out of step, found ourselves counting continuously. The bumping, however, added to the jollity of the afternoon — usually — although we must admit that sometimes a spiked heel in the ankle was not so pleasant and words suitable to the occasion were perhaps thought of, but, to be sure, never mentioned. Perhaps the most amusing dance of the afternoon was Tiger Rag. This number brought consternation to many, complete disaster to some, and fiendish joy to the advocates of the then rampant Lindy Hop. The rhythm of this song was about three beats ahead of everyone ' s steps and as our one, two, three, slides became faster and more vigorous we sat down, enjoying the antics of the rest until the .strains of My Blue Heaven bade us Good Night. After three months of arduous practice, the much publicized and greatly her- alded Dick Whittington made its premiere appearance at the Boston Opera House on Monday and Tuesday evenings, February fourteenth and fifteenth, enacted by Boston College students in collaboration with members of the Junior Philomatheia Club. The book, as you doubtless know, was written by Isabel (Mrs. Larz) Anderson. Grace Warner Gulesian composed the musical scores, while Pierre deReeder contributed the lyrics in addition to directing the production. The .story is based entirely on legend although the name Dick Whittington appears on several official English historical documents. It concerns the meteoric rise of a poor country lad, who, after sharing many trials and tribulations with his invaluable cat, becomes Lord Mayor of London. Paul Curley excellently portrayed Dick Whittington, experiencing, however, some slight ditticulty in reaching the higher notes of his singing parts. Dick ' s cat, Virginia Prout, won the hearts of all in her delightful portrayal of this helpful, restless animal. Consistently the best performer in the cast was Virginia Grimes, as the lovely Alice, who aided, loved, and eventually married Dick. Her beautiful soprano voice thrilled all, while her histrionic ability was beyond reproach. Her finest musical offering You ' re the Answer to My Dreams, sung in a duet with the hero, won appreciative applause. Id € A. the 1934 @5iiftf urn s Neil Holland, as the king ' s jester, accompanied by Celeste Callahan, as Suky, a maid, and his sweetheart, almost stole the show by their merry dancing act after a dramatic scene wherein the jester renounced his fool ' s cap to prove his love. Special commendation is due Martha Hurly, as Zobeida, a sorceress, whose rendering of Under the Moorish Moon deserved its encores, and James Waters, as the Sultan of Morocco, who sang a duet with her. Others in the cast deserving mention were Anna Mahoney as Cecily, Fitz-Warren ' s cook; Frank Mulligan as Sir Hugh Fitz- Warren, Alice ' s father; Walter Hurlihy. as the portly King of England; John Hanrahan, as Bunthrop, the salesman; John Barry, as the skipper of the good ship, The Alice ; John Carey, as Captain of the Corsairs ; and William Day and Robert Glennan, who alternated as Caxton, the villain. Although our two-weeks-old sextet was defeated by the more experienced Terriers from Boston University, the promise of skill exhibited by our team overshadowed any great feeling of remorse in its defeat. Later, garbed in fantastic and anomalous outfits, the Juniors and Seniors unknowingly burlesqued this exhibi- tion. We underclassmen won at least by default as their goalie, defending with a broom, turned his net backwards. Bud Roy and his aping clown companion won the spectators ' general applause by their respective skill and antics. The general skating which followed, although brief, was thoroughly enjoyed and this innovation indeed proved successful and popular. Junior Prom was the climax and denouement of this glorious week, that began in simplicity and now ends with all the ceremony and pomp that only a junior prom can muster. The favors given us at the entrance of the Imperial Ballroom of the Hotel Statler, consisting of a mother-of-pearl vanity, crested with the class seal, for the lady, and a shield-shaped watch charm, for the gentleman, caused rapturous delight for her but a slight regret for many of us who had not borrowed dad ' s watch-chain for the evening. The orchestra was Swinging low sweet chariot as we began the search for our table, but the lilting I ' hythm of this musical aggregation forced us to abandon our search temporarily in favor of having our first dance. We were as one in deciding that the quality of the music was excellent, in spite of the almost interminable inter- ludes between the dances. At the stroke of twelve, amid the blare of trumpets, the beat of drums, in a crystal blaze of light, enmeshed in a tangle of streamers and disconcerting confetti, proud of our accomplishments, displaying whatever dignity we had achieved in our three college years, we held our Junior Promenade under the leadership of President Greg Sullivan and Chairman Ray Roberts. After this display, we enjoyed the excel- lent delicacies of the Statler cuisine. Except for the adventures of a snowball, dancing continued uninterruptedly for the remainder of the evening. It seems as though the snowball parted company with its owner and when the kind classmate with whom it came in contact returned it, the owner did not want it, thus causing to ensue a series of exchanges until the snowball was but a sorry semblance of its former self. Finally, at three o ' clock in the morning, leaving in our wake a trail of wilted streamers, broken balloons, and one melted snowball, we concluded the gay festivi- ties of the most enjoyable week of our young existence. € fht 1934® suHutn (he 1934 @)$u6 (urn .am._ Thomas F.

Before digressing further, we must state that whoever named the Georgian Room certainly knew his temperatures. The atmos- phere of this room positively reminds us of those good old Georgian heat-waves, but then again, as our precocious freshmen remarked, it might have been Ted Marier at the piano and Joe Ecker with his banjo who started those tepid air currents. However, despite the heat, light-heartedness and a bon camaraderie spirit reigned throughout the evening and, as the midnight curfew tolled, we sadly de- parted to wend our several ways to some favorite restaurant rendezvous. Indeed, there was cause for celebrating such an impressive victory as ours was over Georgetown; and celebrate we did. With Leo Norton at the helm, the College expected the Georgetown Reception to be a smart affair, and it was not disappointed. Ted Marier ' s syncopators, who, incidently, added an extra saxophone player, supplied the rhythmic music which proved so tantalizing as to induce many un- decided lone students to enter. This group formed the age-old guest line whose most devastating habit is dragging one back to reality from the reveries caused by blond hair and blue eyes. So, as you can easily imagine, we of the inferior John Barrymore type were kept con.stantly bu.sy during the remainder of the evening keeping our fair one from the ravening clutches of these unescorted gigolos. N The twenty thousand screeching fans who witnessed the inspired Eagle unseat the Crusader could not all be admitted to the victory reception dance, but the Hotel Statler Ballroom was filled to capacity by those fortunate enough to arrive in time to gain admittance. Such a wildly enthusiastic gathering paid fitting social tribute to the magnificently-achieved sporting victory of the afternoon. After passing the reviewing stand of committeemen, and receiving our sup- posedly lucky number, we found to our utter satisfaction that practically all seniors and alumni were formally attired while underclassmen, with due subordination, were dressed informally. Edging our way through victory-smiled couples, the Glen Royale, Ted Marier ' s band, caught first our ear and then our eye as they sat enthroned amid a modernistic black and silver setting. This aggregation, under a fancy name for this auspicious occasion, played Casa Loma ' s rhythmic arrange- ments, transporting us from mood to mood, as the south wind plays with a chip upon the water. The fact that the award of a gold football was won by an underclassman rather than by a senior, proved conclusively that there was nothing rotten in Denmark. Following this drawing, after renditions by Freitas and Tosi, dancing was resumed. At the stroke of twelve, festivities stopped at the Statler, only to be resumed later at Steuben ' s and Old France. « (he 1934(@)$u6fuTO Joseph P. Killelea William V. Hayes James F. Sheehan Walter P. Costello Walter L. Flaherty Peter W. Collins Charles W. Downey Much to our satisfaction, upon entering the foyer of the Copley Plaza, we re- ceived the narrow maroon band which served to distinguish us, the Senior Class, from the other guests and consequently, to our dismay, we contributed a small fee for this privilege. Despite the fact that the Senior Ball was the last we should ever attend as actual students, the majority of us arrived when festivities were well underway. The able baton of Ruby Newman, wildly gesticulating, but directing rapturous rhythm, induced us immediately to commence dancing, before depositing the lady ' s gloves, purse and other sundry nicknacks at our table. From the reports of our savoir faire we gathered that the Ruby jewel was sparkling with unexpected brilliancy on this august occasion. In direct contrast to the Junior Prom, and much to our delight, the jewel shed its rays almost continuously. Rather odd indeed was it to view the many strange faces and older people. But, of course, we realized that without the cooperation of the Philomatheia Club, the Sub Turri, which received a sub.stantial percentage of the profits, could never have benefitted as it did. As you know, the ball was in the form of a supper dance and many of our Ful- tonians were heard debating whether we had lobster or crab meat newburg as the palatable main course in our supper. However, despite speculation, the repast did satisfy the craving for food always to be found in that enormous cavity which con- stitutes a college man ' s stomach. It was noted that a few couples missed at least part of this food by unequally dividing their presence between the ballroom and the Copley ' s delightful innovation to Repeal — the Merry-Go-Round. Among the interesting facts noted during the evening were the multitude of alumni present, especially one former Business Manager of The Heights. Then again, the veiled lady snatching balloons from the balcony proved a source of amusement until her recalcitrant escort reclaimed her. The ladies ' gowns with their glittering sequins and sparkling beads showed the influence of our current movie favorite, Mae West, while Katherine Hepburn not- ably contributed many of the coiffures. Inevitable, yet not monotonous, the grand march, the very last we were to participate in, proved the greatest thrill of the evening. Not once but many times did we circle the ballroom, now in groups of two, then four; reversing the process, we found ourselves in twos again and were presented bouquets. The last rite having then been performed, the general gaiety continued for the evening. 48-1. am k: FRESHMAN After the banquet had prepared us gastronomically to digest the juice of the evening ' s talent, Joe Burke ' s collegians heralded the appearance of Jerome Doyle, our toastmaster, who scaled the heights of loquaciousness with witty jibes through- out the evening. Even if Joe McKenney were coaching an undefeated team, he couldn ' t have received a more spirited ovation, after praising the efforts and courage of the foot- ball players. After his laudatory remarks. Bill Kelliher, Freshman Coach, explained the relation of character-building to football, urging a balance of study and sport. While we were still con.sidering his choice remarks, Fr. Russell Sullivan advocated that we balance the sports with participation in the Evidence Academy, but we ' re afraid that those of us who were taught by Fr. Sullivan, after lengthy search, found no balance. In answer to the challenge of the President of Junior, Edward Gallagher, that we show our quality as we were now showing our quantity, that silver-voiced bari- tone, Paul Mahoney, substituted for us in our inexperience, while with deafening applause we showed our appreciation. SOPHOMORE In somewhat formidable fashion, Greg Sullivan, in the absence of chairman Bill Day, introduced .school-committeeman Mr. Hurley who interestedly discoursed on the merits and demerits of pedagogy. Morgan T. Ryan humorously spoke on the unpopular situation of an important public official, while, later on. Mayor Russell of Cambridge pointed out the benefits to be gained from a study of those unfitted for public life in the present day. The Notre Dame and Pop Warner shorts proved to be most successful of the sound pictures, and added the touch of perfection to this excellent smoker. JUNIOR The innovations of interclass, one-act plays eclipsed all previous smoker enter- tainment. The farcical boxing match between Ed Kelly and Tom Daley exhibited the delightful art of walking into punches. Tony LaC amera, coupling Epistemology with comedy, clearly demon,strated the value of reasoning in talking oneself in and even out of all difficulties. The prize entertainment of the evening was the shadow-picture operation upon Johnny Dou- gan by Doctors Musco and Harrington, who left a mere shadow of Johnny, taking away all his vital organs and even the bottle of milk and the doughnuts he had eaten for lunch. It is no wonder Johnny ' s laugh now resembles that of the female cockatoo. The formal speakers of the evening were Rev. Patrick J. McHugh, S.J., Coach Joe McKenney, and Doctor Edward O ' Brien. SENIOR The innovation of burning the Crusader in effigy at Cleveland Circle was to commence at 7.30 P.M., inaugurating our annual and traditional night before the w (he 1034® suft turn Holy Cross football game rally. I say was to begin, for the biting wind sweeping across the Circle so benumbed us that a few minutes before the scheduled time, im- patient youthful energy fired the pile, heralding a victory already morally won. Before the blaze had made much headway, however, the purple silk-garmented crusader, mounted on his barrel steed, was set atop the bonfire, whereupon the hungry ffames avidly gobbled up his figure with favorable omen. As the unfortunate knight crumbled into ashes, the snake-dance of our moral victory wound its path around the dying embers of this too long victorious usurper. We then started singing songs and yelling our cheers for Boston, and in the pulse-quickening hilarity, similar to Chesterton, who once began to write on something and found so much to say that he wrote on anything, so did we begin by shouting for the team and Boston and finished by yelling about everything. With our evening ' s program thus initiated, the torch light parade to staid Beacon Hill started, under police guidance and control, with utter disregard of traffic lights (by special permission of the copyright owners), innumerable flares, and ( pon our honor) no pulling of false alarms. Subsequent box-office returns proved the value of this advertising stunt, to say nothing of the fun enjoyed by us horn-tooting participants. Transferring on Boylston Street from our auto parade, we grouped ourselves in a slight semblance of order and started to storm the city on foot to the tune of our song of victory. Washington Street was the scene of two never-to-be- forgotten occasions, when our parade was temporarily changed from snake-weaving and skipping to allow the organized cheers of hundreds to reverberate against the walls of the city ' s towering buildings. Our band, leading the parade, held the honors until we reached the corner of Tremont and Park Streets, where we pedants again delayed traffic and brought sparkles to the eyes of passers-by with our con- tagious animation. The Boston City Club was the rendezvous at which we wound up our rally with appropriate and exhilarating speeches. Those who could not find seats literally hung from the rafters, calling back to memory a situation not duplicated in years. Before introducing the guest speakers. Bob Glennon, as master of ceremonies, recalled the aim and purpose in this time-honored tradition of holding pre-game rallies. He, who is now the toast of the football world, our genially democratic coach, Joe McKenney, finally quieted the tremendous ovation accorded him, to tell of the .secret training his boys ' were receiving, their hopes and ambitions for the morrow ' s game and his own confidence in them. Unable to attend because so many of the guests at the Alumni Supper Dance needed to be taken care of, ' Graduate Manager John P. Curley sent his regrets through J. Burke Sullivan, who related the activities of the co-celebration at the Hotel Statler. Faculty Director of Athletics, Father Frank Sullivan, S.J., who so nobly succeeded in awakening the dormant lion of true school spirit, certainly had the satisfaction of seeing his efforts well rewarded as he addressed us, counselling loyalty and its outward expression. Assistant coaches and illustrious alumni having addressed us, the strains of ' ' Hail Alma Mater, sung by one and all, was the signal for the end of the public demonstrations and the be- ginning of private affairs. w • v 3n tfjc f)our of })is bcatf), Kafaicr leabeg us true inspiration. 3n Ijis greatness anb ftumilitp fje fearS tijat })e })as accomplisbeb too little for Cftrist.

There is a new type of student who has entered our many institutions of higher learning during these depression years. A student who comes of comparatively poor parents, a student who must sacrifice much to attend college, who must work to pay for the privilege of gaining an education, and who consequently has an apprecia- tion for its value. I think our great universities are open to criticism for the lack of real study required of the average student. There is too much stre.ss upon extra-curricular activity, upon the racket of sports for the purpose of making money. Rather should it be a school in the real sense, the possession of an ideal in view, fostered by a great enthusiasm to bring about reform and built around personality. So Newman was the quieting personality of the Oxford movement, as Aquinas was the spirit of a sensible philosophy. Under existing conditions there is a reason why youth must go on to work out new conditions of social ju.stice and existence, to bring to light in clear outline the new order which is obscured in the .shadows of a new background of social problems. No longer can the laissez-faire doctrine suffice. There is a necessity of putting aside prejudice. Our outlook mu.st not be selfish nationalism, or even a vague idealized internationali.sm, but a practical, clearly defined system of justice and integrity. In this regard the youth of Europe have made great advances over the youth of America because of the very difficult condi- tions and necessities of their background. We have always been subjected to that pioneering influence, which works of necessity to the rugged crude existence of a cruel hard life. This spirit developed America in beginning, but now the frontiers are lost to us forever. We of this genera- tion for the first time must face a new future; and upon its .solution depends the very existence of our Nation. The international world-outlook is noble while petty nationalism is selfish. With modern invention, communication, and interdependence we must become acquainted with world view and its practical application. Always in the past the youth in times of depression could exploit the frontier. Now the la.st generation saw the end of the frontier and had to look to scientific development and its exploitation, but, in so doing, a new set of economic conditions arose which threatened society. The selfish material soul of the American people brought about its own doom in the downfall of existing social values. A new social .structure mu.st be created, nor can we go back. The great problem is to solve this social structure. We must define it, carry it into practical fulfillment. The present generation has done no more than .start this new order. It is for us, the youth of America, to .see that it goes on. 490 fhe 1934® suftfutn 1 t .gnu The best method of accomphshing this is to do away with petty prejudice, to learn about the existing social orders, understanding where their weaknesses and fallacies lie. Study such things as the common isms and above all keep an open mind. There is a real chance of stimulation between the younger and older generation for now we must agree upon fundamentals. We should not become alarmed at dis- agreements about superficialities. This approach to fundamental truths should be stripped of old prejudices and a new social order will be evolved — an order wherein the old selfish motive of unlimited profits, even at the price of a nation prostrated, can never exist, — where production and consumption are controlled by a just governmental supervision, wherein productive wealth is still privately owned, but guided by government for the benefit of all. Directly from the evils of capitalism come the wave of class dictatorship and the arguments for socialism. But let us realize first the benefits of capitalism: for has it not developed American from a wilderness to its present status? The abuses of capitalism must go, but there is profitable and legitimate use within the system. Fundamentally it is sound. Any real progress in a new social order must be built upon firm foundation-stones. A new and more secure social distribution of the neces- sities of life is to be sought. And if by means of scientific development man can be released from labor so that more time for leisure is obtained, the end in view is good. For man has been a slave too long. But any system which views man as merely a material, economic being is false. Any system which deprives us of our rights, our liberties, is repugnant to a right-thinking mind and, above all, to an American. Therefore let us think twice before we advocate class dictatorship in preference to true democracy. This is an appeal for the recognition of the newly-discovered vital force in our nation. It is an appeal for the recognition of the spiritual element in man. There is a great and powerful factor which so many of our youth are overlooking because they have carried over from the la.st generation an attitude that was pagan and material- istic, embedded in the machine age and the mad rush for wealth. The spiritual factors had no place, seemingly, in their world of science. But even science stands aghast at its own discovery and today finds the material universe vanishing before its very eyes as, more and more, the evidence of the spiritual rolls in from the cold depths of the universe. The pendulum is swinging the other way. The world is starved for spiritual nourishment. iVnd when the ultimate principles are reached, the true student will realize the truth, with its vast and powerful significance. Let us put aside our materialistic ideals and awaken to the truly cultured achievements that make man richer by far than do mere conservation and accumu- lation of wealth or property. Our pioneers ' heritage has made us a hardy people. Men who had most from life, who lived the most useful of lives, never knew the wealth of material possessions. With new leisure upon us, those of us who are able to do so should learn to cultivate higher forms of expression in art. And for those who are not so fortunate as to be gifted with such creative ability, we can at least form an appreciative clientele and an enthusiasm for the artist, thereby spurring him on to new heights. This ■i9l would be a progressive development, the building of a cultured people, the engender- ing of a new, ideal form of society, a new awakening of the world. The definition of the new ideal, the bringing into sharp relief the bold outlines of this ideal, is the duty and the goal of the new generation. The old generation will not see this promised land, yet glimpses from the mountain top may still be given to them. We must not be discouraged at succeeding depressions, when the pendulum of conservation may swing to an old form, but always should we remember if our ideals be sound, the old enthusiasm will return, and the movement of civilization will progress to the ideals in view. Keep clear your vision. Face the problems squarely. Seek their solution for the good of all. J. A. P. tht 1934 ©suftf urn Religious indifFerentism, the offspring of decadent Protestantism, is the most alarming obstacle to the advance — even the continuation — of American civilization today. This dread disease, afflicting over 60 millions of our population of 1 20 mil- lions, produces victims who are totally unmindful of that final end to which they are inevitably tending of their very nature. The immediate causes and the awful effects of this malady stare us in the face. Continuous solicitude for their material welfare, with the absolute unconsciousness of even the actuality of their spiritual existence, is the cause; the effects include the mocking of so-called old-fashioned morality and the consequent undermining of the integrity of family, state, and national life. But these phases of the individual ' s life are the fundamentals of our civilization. Clearly, such deterioration of its very foundation is leading to overwhelming destruction. Our people are blind to the essential connection between the fact of a Law-giving Creator and His laws govern- ing the nature of man, the creature. We must work, therefore, toward the awakening of our people to the funda- mental necessity of the rational worship of God in the every-day life of each one of us. Other nations facing our problem have sought a return to the religious tradition of the past. Why cannot we do this. This effective course of action is closed to us because our ancestors threw over every element of rationality in religion to retain a perverted remnant of its culture that would be swept away in the first onset of militant atheism of insidious paganism. The spread of heresy across the face of Europe in the sixteenth century, con- tagion-like in its rapidity and widespread conquests, marked the fierce revolt of perverted intellectuals against the submission of their minds and wills to the positive demands of God and the natural dictates of rational moderation. Realizing the im- possibility of eradicating the deep faith of the centuries from the hearts of the mass of the people, whose following was indispensable for the permanent overthrow of a Universal Authority on earth, this band of heretics united in a campaign of propa- ganda against the human abuses in a divinely-directed institution. They agreed to unite for the defeat of their common foe, yet spread the seed of their own disunion when they preached rigid individualism of private religion. Today, there is but one note common to all the six hundred and fifty-odd recognized Protestant sects — a note which is indicated by their common name — and this is their accepted defiance of Rome and its despised authority. Indeed, the fundamental necessity for agree- ment and concerted action among men with a common goal was apparent to these men. Their united war upon a universal road to the common end of all men can be indicative of but one fact, — their blind determination to ignore those precepts in- separable from this divinely-appointed road to salvation — precepts by which God placed the price of salvation at the sacrifice of inordinate indulgence in the tendencies of human nature. c tht I934@sttHurn The direct bearing of this sixteenth-century rebeUion against the authority of the Universal Church upon the dire state of rehgious indiflerentism in America today is obvious enough to those with a clear concept of the essential relation of creature and Creator. The throwing off of the authority of the Church led quickly to the rejection of her dogma and precepts, and left open wide the road to unguided license of conduct and a blind, fanatical search for Truth in a Philosophy where Truth was not to be found. The absurdities to which wrangling savants were in- evitably reduced by their first principles, that the foundations of the Church ' s authority are false and that God does not exist, brought sane men to hold naught but contempt for any search whatever after truth. The frightful skepticism which remains is the scourge of our civilization today. The self-named Reformers of four centuries ago made freedom their goal; but the freedom they seized was the freedom of traitorous creatures and the punishment of the Creator is to be found in the present-day unhappiness and dire afflictions of a humanity that is tired of free- dom — that is but too ready to sell all its rights to human authority. Today the majority of our people can be brought back to Godliness only through the efforts and the example of the minority, who still observe and reverence the Law of God. No problem in American life today is so far-reaching in its influence and so unheeded in its true gravity. We are directing every effort to the nursing of proximate national ills; yet the root evil of them all — indifference to religion and morality — is still there, ready to rear new monsters of national destruction. A. M. L. : . B € the 1934® snfifutrt Of all the gifts which we have received from our parents, there is one which stands out preeminently — the gift of a Catholic college education, the fact that we have been able to attend Boston College to be reared in an atmosphere of enlightened Catholic education. We, who have been fortunate enough to be identified with the comparatively few who are given the opportunity to receive such a training, should show our appreciation in a practical way. It may be urged that this is a trite observa- tion which everyone grants as one to be presupposed rather than intelligently dis- cussed. Yet there is a debt of gratitude here to be paid from which we cannot free ourselves by oversight or forgetfulness. The sacrifices which our parents made to secure for us this gift were real and exacting. Our college career took place during a period in which money was anything but plentiful. As we all remember, the nation was experiencing one of the worst eras of economic depression in its history. The unemployed were numbered in the millions and many millions more were forced to accept decreases in salaries. Then we must add to this the fact that, for the most part, our parents were not wealthy. They were members of the working classes and hence their task was greatly in- creased. They deprived themselves of not only the luxuries of life, but also of many of its necessities, that we might enjoy the fruits of higher education. Everyone must admit that when a sacrifice is made, a debt devolves upon the one who benefits, if not in strict justice, at least in charity. Moreover, the extent of the sacrifice determines the gravity of the debt. In the laws of human justice, in the scales of Divine Providence, we find that there is a direct proportion between the sacrifice made and the debt incurred. The extent of our indebtedness to our parents, or, in some cases, to the entire family, is very great indeed. We owe them at least a return in gratitude for their sacrifices. They showed undying love for us by their wonderful pride in all our ambitions and achievements and by providing for us something which they themselves, in many instances, did not enjoy. Surely they are deserving of the recompense at least of gratitude, manifested practically, throughout their whole lifetime. If one of our number incurred a trivial financial debt at college, he hastened to repay it as soon as possible. But we must not blind ourselves to the prevalent ten- dency to ignore other greater debts which have mounted up while we were receiving our education. Moreover, we may prescind here from any financial debts we may have incurred in some cases. The fact remains that a moral debt is present and should be wiped out. Our parents do not expect full financial recompense. They will be content and feel amply repaid for their sacrifices if only we persevere, everyone of us, in the resolve never to cease showing true gratitude in our treatment of them and strive determinedly to make the most in every way of the opportunities this educa- tion has placed within our grasp. J. J. T. w the 1934©5u6fttn( mn Since the beginning of the twentieth century at most non-Catholic institutions of higher learning, there has been a decidedly radical devolution of curricular stand- ards. The pendulum has swung from the rigid formalism of the eighteenth and nine- teenth centuries to a system of extreme electivism. In these institutions the pre- scribed course, a guarantee to a well-rounded education, has been unseated by the superficial modernists from the place of honor which the great scholars have accord- ed it. This so-called modern trend in education, like a whirling, tortuous typhoon, has enveloped all the quasi intellectuals in its midst. Those outside the pale are indeed to be pitied. Alas, we, whose education has been formulated according to the principles of the Ratio Studiorum, find ourselves out of harmony with modern edu- cators. Indeed, one of them, in a printed article, openly scorned followers of our system, declaring our methods of education were antiquated and, in the hallowed presence of the god Science, must be completely revised or totally discarded. But is this so. We cannot deny that human nature is the same today as it was two thousand years ago. And so by logical reasoning, we must conclude that four hundred years ago, when the Ratio Studiorum was first devised, character had to be moulded from the same raw material as today. And how is this to be done. The Renaissance taught the world an appreciation of the Humanities and the Arts. A world steeped in narrow-minded, materialistic ideals, after the crusading of Petrarch, Wimpfeling. More and Erasmus, became fully cognizant of the fact that man ' s intellect has not reached its highest activity in the humdrum of a routine existence, but rather, by the broadening, cultural efl ects of the Arts and Classics, it should come into fuller realization of its own destiny. When, in the year 1,599, the Ratio Studiorum of the Jesuits was first devised, .scholarly, far-sighted men realized that the Classics must be the foundation upon which a cultural education is to be built. For it is only in the universality of the Classics that man can reach beyond the bounds of his individual horizon. The superstructure built upon the foundation of the Classics — the crux of the .system — is Scholastic Philosophy. Thus, the logical finality of the Ratio Studiorum is at once apparent. The Humanities were to destroy narrowism and broaden the intehect; Philosophy was to contribute the constructive factor in the education, unfolding to man the most sublime of Sciences, The science of all things from their idtiinaie causes. We must now an.swer more directly the charge that the system is hostile to all sciences. The statement is a prevalent one but, like many others of similar nature, is totally unfounded. After the advent of the scientific movement in education, there was a revision of the Ratio Studiorum which made certain sciences a part of the curriculum, some I m. « the 1934®s«nurtt obligatory, others elective. The obligatory ones, such as General Chemistry and Physics, are needed today to round out a well balanced education; the elective sciences: Biology, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, etc., are intended for those students who wish to specialize in these chosen fields. The man who is educated only along one special line has a mind narrow and distorted, comparable to a freak of nature, over-developed in one respect, under- developed in all others. He is more of a hindrance to the progress of society and civilization than an aid. Due to a lack of any cultural education he is p rejudiced in his views and his moral life is blighted; he constitutes a serious nienance to the advance of Truth. There is but one way in which specialization in a given field can be successfully realized; and this is by a system of electives, after a broad and substantial foundation has first been laid. A system of extreme electivism, starting from freshman year in college, can lead but to an education that is a mockery. A system of sane, coordin- ated electivism, when built upon a developed mind and influenced by true principles, is then fitted to fashion the complete man — one who can judge sensibly the philo- sophical relations between his special field and the general branches of knowledge. A. J. M. 1 w iht !934®$u6(UTO It is with a wave of emotion and enthusiasm that we peruse the vividly-por- trayed annals of the advancement of civilization, traced, as they are, in the realiza- tion of personal ambitions and individual beliefs. We cannot but feel, now sur- mounting joy, now depressing sorrow, when we live with the leaders of time in the fluctuating stages of conquest and defeat. However, in the treatment of individuals and their institutions, no matter how great the admiration roused within us. it is subsequently dimmed by the tabulation of the fate of all material creation — death from vice and corruption. Yet no matter how suddenly and unexpectedly the stroke of fate may follow in the wake of power, we are, nevertheless, left with a spirit of admiration and awe for those who have moulded the trend of what is now history. We feel that these people were almost supernatural and that the world they inhabited is far different and removed from thi t of the present-day. We look back upon this pageant of history with its great men and great nations as far more worthy of commendation and discussion, even though shrouded in death and decay, than the world in which we live. How often have we felt depressed when Philip lamented the dearth of nations to conquer? How often have we felt the blood surge through our veins as we read Lamb ' s gripping account of the fate of the Crusaders? Charlemagne, Caesar, Attila — all have shared their every ambition with us, and now we lament because there are no such leaders in this era to fill us with emotion. We accept the present course of events as one of slow, methodical, diplomatic wrangling — no fit object for our wholehearted interest. Here again, are we not allowing ourselves to admire and mourn the passing of what has been, while disregarding the intrinsic worth in what we now possess? For it may be said that we are living in an era which is to prove the very determinant of the trend of future economics, politics, and government. In these fields, there are taking place such drastic innovations that, whether or not they are to be permanent, is the question our period of civilization must decide. This contention is most clearly exemplified in the unprecedented number of autocratic governments now scattered over the face of Europe. It is not to be denied that if Communism, Fascism, and Socialism are to remain with us as permanent institutions they must pass the test of practicality and feasi- bility. As we can clearly see, therefore, we are living in the very decade which is to determine the relative merits of these new forms of rule as compared with the old. The outcome will reveal the overthrow of democracy or the final rejection of Social- ism. Patently, it is for this era of ours to determine whether or not man is to sacrifice his right to private ownership of property and to the free use and full enjoyment of the fruits of his labor. Moreover, this era of ours is to determine not only the func- tions of the public life of our posterity but also the nature of its private life as well. It is for this age of ours to determine whether or not man is to continue to have a voice in government or become merely an insignificant cog in an overpowering, machine-like, economic or political scheme. fbt 1934 @s ftf urn 1- 3± m Even with this question to be answered, the greatest number of our people are entirely unconcerned about the national and international problems of the world in which we live; they look with preference to the earty centuries and the Middle Ages with their gallant leaders. If we should disregard the grandeur and gallantry with which this history of the ancients and of Europe is portrayed and determine the era worthy of our highest esteem by its true significance in the progress of civilization, we would readily realize our poor sense of values. We should not allow vivid historians to beguile us into thinking that we are living in an age whose course is fated and which must follow a preordained rut. Having once cast aside this gallantry which is clothed in a profusion of words, we would take our rightful place in the activities of government and find this world of ours a better place in which to live.

Baseball Game — Senior A vs. Senior B m E € iht 1934@swfum Today we have assembled on the green-clad ramparts of the Heights, in the shadow of the Gothic Towers which have been so intimately connected with our lives during the past four years. It is with great happiness and joy that we are here today for this is the occasion of our celebration of the fruition of the labors and endeavors of our college career. We have reached the goal for which we set out upon our matric- ulation at Boston College. Our efforts have been many and varied, but all have tended ultimately toward the successful completion of our college course and the honor which accrues to those who have done their work faithfully and well. Upon reflection, however, we realize that our joy and gladness on this, our Class Day, is tempered with emotions of sadnes.s — in that on the morrow we must leave the famil- iar scenes of our college days, the friendly atmosphere of collegiate life. We must leave these classic halls wherein we have received from the holy and revered Jesuit Fathers a course of studies, a training the value of which and the truth of whose principles we have had more clear, forceful and tangible evidence during the past few years than has perhaps any other class in the history of the College. For we have seen the world thrown into disruption, both economically and politically, because principles have been practiced that are contrary to those held by Christian Ethics and Economics. The Class of 34 has been most successful, and its years here at the Heights have been years full of activity and crowded with all that is essential and good in college. Our attainments have been many, our failures few; our endeavors in curricular and extra-curricular work as a class have been really remarkable and fitting evidence of the initiative and interest of the members. Many new clubs and activities of a religious, economical, and athletic nature have been instituted by the Class; and it is this factor that I believe to be of prime importance in explaining our unparalleled success. The Class has been one unit working for the common end with zeal and loyalty, with love and afi ection for the group, the College, and their individual Fellow Clas.smates. Through their efforts and because of their unselfish sacrifice and spirit of loyalty we have been able to do our part in raising the Maroon and Gold to a higher pinnacle. Now we leave the furtherance of this work to our successors. Ere we depart from our Alma Mater, as tomorrow we must, it is our desire to give public utterance and verbal expression of our appreciation to those men who have been our teachers, our guardians, and our friends during our college days. As oiu ' teachers they have been thorough, capable and tireless — they have im]3arted to us faithfully and conscientiously the fruits of their long and arduous studies together with those of four hundred years of learning and research by the Jesuit Order. As the guardians of our Faith they have, by virtue of their splendid example, been a con- .stant ideal for the development of our character. They represent the perfection of Catholic manhood and, in following their example, we shall be a credit and an asset to our parents, our religion, and Boston College. As our friends they have been iht 1934 @)5u6 (urn m C ffi X sincere, loyal and helpful. The kindly word, the thoughtful council, the encouraging smile, their joy in our successes, and sincere sympathy for our defeats are indelible in our memory. We will mi.ss them greatly; may our future lives reflect the glory of their work. One realizes the inadequacy of the spoken word or the weakness of the pen when, as at the present time, I try to express the love and devotion, the thanks and appreciation that we have for those self-sacrificing and unselfish souls who, in many instances, deprived themselves of even the necessities of life that we, their charges, might be the recipients of the very best in a college education. It is with this realization in mind of the fruitlessness of the mere word to convey that grati- tude, the real depth of which only the soul is capable of reaching, that we forbear to do so by this means, lest we appear trite and superficial. Rather let us pledge the rest of our existence here on Earth as a perpetual monument to their honor, that we may in some small measure, by our attainments, recompense them for their faith and love. To my Fellow Classmates of ' 34 : To be chosen the leader of my Class at Boston College is indeed an honor; but to be the President of the Class of ' 34 for the entire four years is such a distinction that any words of appreciation of mine would be inadequate indeed. The cooperation given me in all my ventures has been such as any class leader has seldom experienced; it has been the admiration of all who are cognizant of our accomplishments. It is the pioneer who blazes the trail for those who follow after, that they may more easily arrive at the goal they seek. He leaves signs and marks to point out the way that those who follow may not wander aimlessly and unguided and perhaps fail to reach their destination. So, too, with the pioneers of Boston College, those first classes which set out for a goal that was the glory and fame of our Alma Mater. They set up an ideal and a reputation which was to be maintained for the entire existence of the College. They chose as a sign and a .symbol this Mantle which was to be passed down from year to year as a tangible sign of the responsibility and obli- gation of the undergraduates to preserve and defend the ideals which they had set up, and, by accepting these obligations, the more easily to reach the end. Last year I accepted this traditional cloak from the Class of 1933. It then became the duty of our Class to fulfill the promises made by me in behalf of the Class of ' 34. Our work has been done, our promises fulfilled, and now it is for us to pass on the Mantle and that for which it stands to another class that it may fulfill these duties as a grou]J of true Boston College men. Therefore, Mr. President, accept this Mantle on behalf of the Class you repre- sent and be mindful of the work you have before you. We are sure that you will carry on as your jiredecessors, and that a year hence you will pass this Mantle on with the realization that more fame and honor has been added through your efforts, to the ever-swelling praise of Alma Mater. Our work is finished. Our course is run. Our duty done. Our farewell made. We bid you vale, and may success crown your every effort. Gregory L. Sullivan, President of ' o4 s (he I934i3 5ti6(tttn 41: We graduate at a time unique in the history of our country. This land of ours is passing through a state of revision and a period of reconstruction — the travail that attends the birth of a new era. We who graduate from Boston College today have come to realize that a higher degree of general mental culture is necessary to meet the subversive forces that abound and the successive crises of the State. Is it certain that our American people in their speculations on the causes of the grandeur and the decay, the wealth and the poverty, the importance and the insignificance of States, that today are no more, have given quite as high a place as it deserves to the intellect of the State. ' ' Have they not thought too much of the cities they have built, the far-flung railroads they have made, the manufactures they have produced, the cargoes which freight their ships, and too little of that soul by which only the nation .shall be great and free. ' ' In their speculations on knowledge and the improvement of the mind, is it right or is it wise to treat them as merely useful or ornamental in- dividual accomplishments alone, or rather should they not think of them as mines of national riches greater than Ormus or Ind, as perennial and salient springs of national power. ' ' There is not a surer way of achieving the boast of Themistocles that he knew how to make a small State a great one, than by making it wise, meditative, thoughtful; by beginning at the cradle, by touching the infant lip with fire from heaven; by providing institutions to guide the mature mind to the heights of knowl- edge; by collections of art and taste that shall unfold and teach the love of beauty; by planting the gardens of a divine philosophy and spreading out the pavilion of the Muses. All the greatness which is recorded in the histories or in the epics of all the great States of the earth, all the long series of their illustrious accomplishments, all the charm that attaches to their living name and that lingers on the capacious tomb into which they at last go down, — all this we trace at length to a few energetic qualities of intellect and character. Their illustrious grandeur is but a product of the human mind; it is a creation of the human will; it is the nobler and higher faculties of man in their grandest and most appropriate exemplifications. Consider Athens. Is it her area, not quite so large, not half so fertile as our own Rhode Island, her sun-scorched valleys covered with meagre herbage, her olive tress with their pale leaf and pliable branches, — is it these things whi ch seem to you to have made up the grace of Greece; or was it that virile, brave, and energetic character, so prompt and full of resource, that love of Athens and of her glory, that unrivalled elegance of taste, that teeming and beautiful fancy, — are not these the traits and these the gifts which created the Athens of the world, and of all ages? These are the attributes which are embodied for us in the Iliad and in the Oedipus and in the Parthenon, in the treatises of Aris- totle, the dialogues of Plato, the orations of Demosthenes, — that eloquence of an expiring nation, which stand out on the sculptured page of Plutarch, which made her a teacher of patriotism and a light to liberty, which won for her in her own time the rank of first power of the world, and reared her with a more rare felicity to an intellectual throne, from which no progress of the species may ever unseat her. 503 me I534®su6(ut« N . I do not say that mental culture alone can completely educate a nation, — far from it. There must be action. There must be difficulty. There must be labor. But I do say there is not an occupation of civilized life, from the making of laws and poems and histories down to the opening of New Jersey oysters with a broken jack-knife that is not better done by a keen than by a dull man, by a quick than by a slow mind, by a prudent, thoughtful and careful man than by a light and foolish one. Every one of these occupations — in other words the universal labor of mankind — involves, demands, and is a mental effort directing a physical effort; and you do but go to the fountain head, as you should, when you seek by an improved culture and a better knowledge, to give force and power to the imperial capacity behind, setting a thoughtful, prudent spirit to urge and guide it. But look at this matter in a broader way. Suppose that by succession of effort, by study, by employing time, you could really elevate the literary character of the United States to as high a degree of superiority over the general literary character of the world as that of Attica when compared with the rest of Greece in the age suc- ceeding the Persian War. Suppose the libraries, the schools, the teachers, the schol- ars, were here, the galleries of art, the weavers of philosophical systems, the laurelled brow; suppose that the general taste of the world should authenticate and deter- mine all this, — would it, or would it not, profit us as an instrument of political ascendency? It would be soothing to our pride certainly. But, surely that would not be all. Knowledge is power as well as fame. You could not hold the moral relation to the world which I have sketched — it is alas, a sketch — without realizing a political relation in some degree of correspondence with it. Think of that subtle, all embrac- ing, my.sterious thing called public opinion, and consider what such a State of marked and acknowledged literary and intellectual ledaership, might do to color and shape that o])inion to its will. Consider how winged are words, how electrical, light-like the speed of thought, how all-embracing human sympathy. Consider that the meditations of a single philosopher, the pamphlet of a single writer, have in- flamed or composed nations and armies, shaken thrones, determined the policy of governments for years of weal or woe, war or peace. Behold how the Drapier s letters of Swift set Ireland on fi re, cancelled the patent of King William, inspired or revived the spirit which in a later day the eloquence of Grattan evoked to national life. Burke ' s reflections on the French Revolution began that great contention of nations that lasted a quarter of a century, till the sun sank over the blood-drenched field of Waterloo. The sarcasms of Voltaire had wrenched its grandeur from the throne, and violated the sacredness of the Church, or popular violence might not have overthrown the one and harmed the other. He who guides public opinion moves the hand that moves the world. There is an influence which I would rather the United States should exert upon her sisters of this universe, than see her the business and financial leader of the world, and that is such an influence as Athens exerted on the taste and opinion first of Greece, then of Rome, then of the universal modern world; s uch as she will exert while the race of man exists. This of all the forces of empire was most glorious, most immortal. This was won by no bargain, by no fraud, by no war of the Peloponnesus, by the shedding of no human blood. It would rest on admiration of the beautiful. M (lit 1934@S«filUTO s 1 the good, the true, hi art, in thought, in rehgion; and it would last while the emo- tions, its proper object, were left in a human soul, and that will be — forever. It would turn the eye of the world hitherwards with love, gratitude and tears such as those with which we turn to the walk of Socrates beneath the plane tree, the summer hour of Cicero, that room through whose opened window came into the ear of the dying Walter Scott, the murmur of the gentle Tweed, — love, gratitude and tears such as we all yield to those whose deathless wisdom, whose divine verse, whose heavenly eloquence have held up the vision of changeless beauty — an earthly fore- taste of the beatific vision as it were — to the insatiate desires of the mind, have taught us how to live, and how to die ! Classmates : you and I have received this culture here at Boston College. During the past four years we have been assimilating the tenets of melioration and refine- ment. Our application and employment of this training will determine our ascend- ancy in the world about us. I have attempted to portray for you this afternoon the cogency of culture, and I would conclude my oration with an appeal for us to utilize the endowment that is ours — that has been given us by Boston College. In the fu- ture, whatever may be our thoughts, our words, our writings, or our actions, let them all be subservient to the promotion of the prosperity of our country — a true prosperity — one which is the intelligent combination of material wealth and appreci- ation of the spiritual things of life, in an atmosphere in which the creative arts flourish, great projects are undertaken, temples rise, poets sing, and man attains his destiny with serene satisfaction. As water can rise no higher than its source, so also may no nation rise above the ideals of its people. By raising our intellectual standards and elevating our tastes, by inculcating chaste ideals and nobler aims, we shall inspire our civilization to rise to heights beyond the dreams of the mo.st fertile imagination. Under the aegis of a time-cultural afflatus we will witness a rebirth of the glory that has not died, but only slumbers. Robert J. Glennon M € I ' l (he 1951 ® $nifutn Mt: B. In these warm, glamorous June days, the long awaited Commencement dawn has burst forth in all its splendor, spreading over all of us the glow of keen enthusiasm, and leaving us quite breathless and expectant — for the eventful day is here, the day of stern dignity and solemnity, bringing with it smiles, hopes, tears, dreams, and, for most of us, soothing memories. We stand on the threshold of a new life, a life of increased responsibilities and obligations. The avenue of that life is a twisting, turn- ing road full of hazards to trap the careless wayfarer. Before we cross the threshold into that new life, we pause, with just a bit of regret — and, like the true offspring of the eagle, we eagerly snatch this last opportunity, as eaglets, to feel the protective warmness of our Nourishing Mother . The four years spent here seem to have passed as swiftly as our noble eagle in flight. We are armed for the battle with the world only with the weapons of truth, righteousness, and justice, and we are reinforced by the traditions of Boston College. We leave here as a memory of our collegiate lives, a living, breathing symbol, to grow under the shelter of the lofty Towers. This tree is a symbol of the rugged faith Boston College has nurtured in us. Its life is young, fresh, and strong, a fitting token of our love and devotion to the Alma Mater. As the years grow upon us, this tree will become vigorous and more strong, and, so too, will our love for Boston College and its ideals strengthen with time. We, who are of this great Class of 1934, will pass from the lofty Heights to all corners of the world, perhaps, and yet, wherever we may be, in divers lands or in distant marts, this tree will keep the memory of our class alive and fresh in the minds of those who come here after us. The branches of this tree will multiply and grow strong, and we, the sons of Boston College will multiply, grow strong, and spread afar the lofty aims and ideals she has inculcated in us. The roots of this tree will enable it to remain steadfast, even though severe storms buffet it, and may those roots tend to hold us to the road of truth and righteousness and achievement, so that Boston College may truthfully and eagerly say, These are my beloved and loyal sons, in whom I am well pleased. Now, as the evening shadows swiftly gather about the day of our college careers, we all join in breathing a final prayer that our tree will grow strong and healthy, and that it will always cast its protective shade over all who may gather here in future years, and that its uplifted arms may beseech the blessings of God on Boston College, her endeavors, her loyal sons, and her faculty, laboring always to do His work. May we always keep in our hearts the enduring love and faith that will ever bind, through all the pleasures and trials of life, our cause with the cause of Boston College. O tree, we of the Class of 1934 dedicate you to this College as a living monument to her ideals and as a token of our devotion and fidelity through all the echoing reaches of the thronging years. John Michael Barry Wi iixt 1934® snftftirn i:f)e Clasig oem of 1934 TOWERS White fingers pointing to the sky, Like beacons brightly burning, Beckoned us to climb the hill And tread the halls of learning. O Temples to our manhood, Life ' s bloody fight began Beneath these lofty battlements Which guard the Eagle clan. The ashes of our careless youth Lie scattered in your hands. Like dust they soon will mingle With Time ' s eroding sands. The road is long before us. Tower-fingers point the way; The Cross above the scabbard. The soul above the clay. The blessings from your lifted hand Will stay us in the fight; Your fingers, reaching to the stars, Will guide us through the night. Martin J. P. Dolphin, ' 34 the 1534 @)$u6f urn m fr These gifts I do bestow with the best and most honorable intentions, and, although I anticipate and appreciate the manner in which the men of ' 3-1 will receive them, still I fee! it necessary to assure those assembled here as witnesses to the festivities, that my presentations, though symbolic of those traits manifested by the recipients during their undergraduate days, are never-the-less harmless in themselves, and with each I beg that no offense will be taken. And so, on behalf of the Class of ' 34 of Boston College, I wish to present to: GREG SULLIVAN — This slight but most appropriate gift, so that upon his grad- uation he might hie away to Boston Common, and continue his speech making — and thus I present this soap box, upon which he may stand. BOBBY OTT — As a tribute to his aggressive spirit in the face of great odds, especially that particular incident of the Holy Cross game, let me tender this gift, to be used ever in defense of the proud name of Boston College — a boxing glove. WATERS — To you. my friend, I wish to present a gift for which you will be eter- nally grateful. To aid you in your avowed hobby, your life-long endeavor, to ever keep those delicate digits swathed in mochas, I present you with this pair of gloves. And never may the gods allow one to point at you and say, There stands Waters without his gloves. ' JOE HARNEY — To you I wish to offer a little token, upon the reception of which you will vow solemnly, never to interrupt my psychological concentration to lean forward so insistently and whisper hoarsely, What time is it, Hago? I give you — a watch. EDDIE KELLY — To you my dear Eddie, let me offer a model for that toward which you were ever grasping — that for which your fingers have constantly itched — let me present this gift with the hope that you will ever have it near to shake whenever you feel that overpowering urge — I give you this model of a hand — may you continue to shake it well. JOHN NIZIANKOWICZ — To you, John, because of your incessant passion for the ever crushing philosophy of Schopenhauer, so clearly manifested on those dire days of examinations, I give you this handkerchief with which to absorb your crocodile tears. JOE KILLELEA — With the sound of your name, Joseph Peter, my thoughts slip back to our sophomore year, and the football trip to western Maryland. I can still see you as we barged into your pullman, shortly before game time, with your eyes glued upon a magazine. Eyes staring, body rigid, you sat and read a (ht 1934® SUB turn ■1 M FRANK MALONEY— Although a bit of a pigskin would be admittedly the most appropriate gift for its football leader, I believe such an offering would be much too obvious. Rather will I present to you a gift symbolic of your general activi- ties here at Boston College. Ever in the heart of things here at the Heights, to you I give that which will enable you to continue to effect an entrance into everything. I give you, this chisel. GEORGE McLaughlin — To you, Geo, who have ever been solicitous of your own good left arm, over which Frank Jones ' fingers have beaten many a tattoo, I implore you to abandon such a fickle arm, and accept this one which will sur- pass your own and which I myself have dug up from Mt. Hope Cemetery. JOE McLaughlin — Thinking of the many times I have gone to you, Joe, in search of tickets to the hockey games, only to meet disappointment and a clever evasion, let me present to you this exquisitely patterned Scotch plaid. HAL RAMSEY — Again my mind reverts to the last great football season of the Class of ' 34, and I have visions of great plays and great players, and also of not-so-great players. But of the latter it can be said that they served. And in order that you will continue as you have in the past, as Tosi ' s substitute, I present you with this, upon which you might sit and gnash your teeth as the game of life progresses, I give you this bench. FLAVIO TOSI — With appreciation of your most enthusiastic but tremendously boring poetic endeavors, let me tender to you this gift, to enable you to more rashly antagonize your friends with the rendition of Life Is Just a Game of Poker, I give you this megaphone. JOHN FREITAS — Although much water has passed under the bridge, and song writers and songs have enjoyed their short span of popularity, still there sput- ters forth from those lips of yours, a song long dead to the rest of the world. And your insistence upon forever reverting to this archaic tune has forced me to purchase for you — out of the class funds, of course — a copy of the tune. Let me present you, Sweet Sue, with the provision that you refrain from singing it here. LOU MUSCO — For you, my friend, I found it most difficult to choose a representa- tive gift. One of the most popular men in the class, surely the funniest, and admittedly the Adonis of the Class of ' 34, my task was disheartening. However, my final decision, if not universally appreciated, will nevertheless meet with the approval of those most intimate with you. To you Louis, I present a gift most sought after by you, but any model of which is most dangerous if left neglected. And so I give you this golden model of a choo-choo train, with the advice to ever acknowledge its warning signal, toot-toot. 509 iht l934@5uHuTO — E C mi ' - t TOM BLAKE — To you, Tom, I eagerly take the opportunity to present a gift, and although I admit the motive to be not entirely altruistic, still I feel I am justified in the selection. Seeing you again as Jack Dalton, a son of the soil, and still feeling deeply the spirit into which you entered the play, especially the scene wherein you so eagerly handed the villainous Murgatroyd his just de- serts, I beg of you to accept this second of a pair of boxing gloves, for the pro- tection of your hands — and of my jaw. JOHN DONNELLY — From the famed hill-to p of Georgetown L ' niversity did you look down upon Boston College, and seeing the truth did you enter here, to join a great class, and to devote most of your time at Dover with your jumping horses. But for your gift, I have the honor to present you with a bottle of dis- infectant, with the belated advice to never tru.st a horse when you shoe his hind hoof. HERB KENNY — To you. Herb, I give a gift which you have been long needing, although you in your modest way, would have none of it, but rather became more determined than ever to dispense with it. You, in your many capacities have often been the target for many and varied attacks, and several have fallen crushingly upon your head. At this head have been aimed various and sundry things, and although I appreciate the stubbornness with which you have constantly persisted in having your hair cut in such an atrocious manner, still for your own sake, allow me to present you with this — headguard. BILL BOEHNER — Your gift, Billy, is one which brings us back to that night of nights at the Presidential Country Club, len with all the boys and the coaches fast asleep, we two furtively made our way through the clubhouse. In the cellar did we find ourselves, and the light of a match showed you leaning over a huge barrel with a spigot in the side. Much heavy breathing and grunting ensued between us for a moment — then a crash! Then the mad dash out to the car, with someone shouting wildly at us — a crazy ride, pursuit — then home. With this in mind, let me present this little gift, with the caution to never pull a spigot all the way out, and never try to force the flow by pushing the barrel on to its side. 1 ; , B € the 1934 @ snHutrt The task of writing this brief, superficial history of the Class of ' 34 is not only an honor and a pleasure, but also an opportunity to recall, here and there, the joys and achievements of our college days. The only shadow that crosses these pages is the fact that in so brief a space it is impossible to record the deepest and finest things of collegiate life — the httle acts of kindness and self sacrifice, the real friendships, and a mutual respect and adoration which follows from our unity in a common pur- pose, the molding of our character and the development of our faculties. After the awe and strangeness of our new surroundings wore away, we rapidly fell into the swing of college life. Early in October, un der the guidance of our Dean, the Rev. James J. McDermott, S.J. ' the golden branch among the shadows, plans were made for the complete organization of the Fresliman class. From its outstand- ing members the Leadership Academy and the Freshman Senate were formed. These bodies operated most efficiently and soon presented the class with a Freshman Day that will long be remembered. After various inter-mural sports, interwoven with comedy and error, and a football game with the sophs, the newer sons of B. C. were tendered a banquet by the Student Activities Council. The Senior Assembly Hall was transformed, as if by magic, into a scene of brilliance and hilarity, and our capable toastmaster, Jerry Doyle of ' 31, presented to the Class Fr. McHugh, Fr. Russell Sullivan, Joe McKenney and Bill Kelliher. Richard Gorman, the Senior President, then presented the 1934 banner which this Class has adorned with merited glory. The athleti c activities of the Freshman Class angered well for the succeeding years. With such men as Freitas, Maloney, Ott, Lillis, Kelly, Dougan, Ezmunt, and Jundzil, the eaglet gridsters defeated B.U., Coburn, and St. Anselm s,and climaxed a brilliant season with a thrilling victory over a strong Crusader team from Worcester. Following two years of inactivity. Freshman hockey was resumed at the Heights and, ably led bj ' Herb Crimlisk and Ray Funchion, victories were registered over St. John ' s, St. Anselm ' s, Brighton, and Nashua. At the B. A. A. meet, the flying feet of Johnny McManus, Paul Dailey, Bill Parks, and Al Rooney carried the Maroon and Gold to victory over Northeastern, New Hampshire, and Villanova. According to a plan decided upon early in the year. Class elections were held in January after the students had become acclimated and well acquainted. As a result of this vote, the leadership of the Class was intrusted to Greg Sullivan and his aide- de-camp, Paul Shine. John Ahearn was selected to record whe facts and J. T. L. O ' Connell to confiscate what little money a freshman can gather together. The social life of our freshman days was climaxed at the Somerset, in a carnival of fun which extended into the wee hours of the morning. Freddie the freshman and his fair lady pranced about the huge ballroom, much to the dismay of the more stately and sedate upperclassmen who were present. However, even these, our sever- est critics, had only the greatest praise for the Prom and Bill Parks, its Chairman. w :: (be l934@)$u6fuTO As the summer months drew to a close, we once again assailed the Heights of Chestnut Hill, and our first view of the Gothic walls revealed a new addition to the College buildings. In keepin g with the striking qualities of architecture which have helped to make B. C. a spot of artistic beauty and inspiration to faculty and stu- dents alike, a South Wing had been added to St. Mary ' s hall. Quite proud, we were, of the fact that the Sophomore Class now had a Dean of its own. However, in spite of our pride, we spent many an uneasy hour when Fr. Bean dropped into class to observe our progress and fire at us his famous questions! Due to his splendid record while at the helm of the Freshman Class, Greg Sullivan was re-elected President of sophomore, and was provided able assistants in Tom Blake, John Ahearn, and Joe Warren. Early in October our exuberant spirits were tempered and our moral stamina strengthened by the annual Retreat, conducted under the direction of Rev. Thomas Feeney, S.J., associate editor of Jesuit Missions. An unexpected honor and pleasure was bestowed on the Class when, early in November, Rev. Fr. Rector attended the Sophomore Assembly and praised the students for their presentation of the famous Lincoln-Douglas debates. The historic characters were reenacted by James Waters and Peter Seward, who delivered their speeches in a manner worthy of the originals. Art McGillivray vividly portrayed the history of the case, and Marc Lewis gave a detailed and accurate rhetorical analysis of the arguments employed by both sides. After conquering Catholic University, Western Maryland, Georgetown, Day- ton, and B. U., the screaming Eagle alighted in the Stadium, and by the scant margin of a single point went down in glorious defeat at the hands of the Crusaders. Led by Captain Joe Kelley, the Eagles gave an exhibition of B. C. grit that will be an inspiration to Boston College teams for years to come. Ted Marier ' s stirring victory song, Maroon and Gold, was added to the battle cries of the Eagles and its inspiring melody was heartily acclaimed by the entire .student body. The pre.sence of Joe McKenney, Captain Joe Kelley, Mayor Russell of Cam- bridge, and Superintendent Crowley added to the glamor and success of the Sopho- more Smoker. The class orchestra, the popular songs of Jim Waters and Pop Miller, Jim Deary ' s trumpet solos, and the motion pictures of the outstanding football games of the season added color to the evening and proved to all that the Class of ' .S4 was a class among classes. The mid-year brought to the College a new President, and we bade fond adieu to Rev. James H. Dolan, S.J., who, in the course of six years, had accomplished many notable improvements for Boston College. Rev. Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., our new President, met the Class and spoke of the advantages of a classical training to a college student. His speech, simple and B « (he 19M@)$u6furn informal, made a deep impression and won him the esteem and admiration of the entire body. The mile and two-mile relays upheld the prestige of B. C. track teams, when, aided by Paul Daily, Bill Parks, and Dana Smith, they defeated Harvard, Holy Cross, and Tech in the Prout Memorials at the Boston Garden. At Philadelphia, the brilliant running of Smith and Daily aided in bringing to the Heights permanent possession of the Meadowbrook Trophy. The success of the annual class dinner was insured by the presence of such speakers as Fr. Gallagher, Fr. McHugh, and Fr. Harney, our famous desk-slapping historian. And thus, having surpassed the splendid record of cooperation and attainment set up in freshman, we departed from these hallowed halls, happy in the thought that we would soon return in search of new fields to conquer. JUNIOR With the autumn season drawing near, we barkened to the call of Philosophy and migrated once again to the Heights we had learned to love, there to behold the long-hoped-for Stadium, now made possible by the unselfish sacrifice of Rev. Fr. Rector, Fr. Roddy, and John P. Curley, our energetic Graduate Manager of Ath- letics. Amid colorful ceremonies, the Eagle gridsters, bedecked in their shining new uniforms, fittingly dedicated the field with a victory over the gray-clad warriors from Loyola, and to Fairhaven Johnny Freitas went the honor of scoring the first touchdown on Akimni Field. What little spirit the first onslaught of Junior Philosophy had left us, was then tempered in the annual retreat by the words of counsel and advice of that well known author, Fr. Joseph Williams, S.J. In the presentation of a Hallowe ' en Social, the Class of ' 34 once again became a pioneer. This colorful party at the Bradford proved to be a real addition to the already large list of successful endeavors of the Class. With the coming of Fordham, B. C. met and defeated one of the high-scoring teams of the country, and the golden toe of Norwood Ed Kelly was acclaimed throughout the land. For our annual tilt with Holy Cross, the Eagles journeyed to Mt. St. James and, in a scoreless game, humbled the haughty Crusaders by refusing to allow them a single first down. Junior Week, in keeping with the standard of ' 34, was one of the most spectacu- lar the College has ever witnessed. Starting out with the humility and simplicity of a Communion Breakfast, a week of frolic and fun, was climaxed amid a cloudburst of confetti and a tangled web of streamers at the Imperial Ballroom of the Statler. Other outstanding events of the week were a tea dance, a smoker, and a skating party. At the ice carnival the junior-senior hockey game brought together the most curious conglomeration of pseudo hockey players ever to decorate the Arena ice. It is quite certain that the juniors would have been victorious had not the senior goalie, seeing the futility of his broom, removed his net from active participation in the game. w. E iht !934@)$u6(UTn 1 Boasting such sharp shooters as Frank Lambert, Gran Jones, and Fabian ' Rouke, the rifle team completed a successful season with victories over Holy Cross and Company A of the National Guard. After a careful analysis of the oustanding litterateurs of the Class, Greg Sullivan appointed A. Marcus Lewis to the important position as Editor-in-Chief of the Sub TuRRi. In view of the very efficient manner in which Marc had already conducted his many college activities, this appointment was most appropriate. The ofiice of Managing PMitor was capably filled by John A. Porthouse, but due to a most un- fortunate illness that was prolonged in senior, he was forced to resign; his with- drawal from the Managing Board was a great loss to the staflF. The vacancy was filled by John J. Tierney, just the man for the position. The difficult tasks of the Business Manager were taken over by Bob McQuilland. As Art Editor, our young actor and entertainer, Frank Brow, took upon himself the difficult task of cartooning each and every one of his senior mates. His clever and capable pal, C. Ed Long% aided him as associate Editor in completing this novel feature. Frank McCrehan ' s stellar performers, aided by the habit which Billy Boehner and Johnny Freitas had acquired of smashing out sizzling homers, came through and, for the first time in many seasons, handed Jack Barry ' s Purple ni ne a pair of entirely unexpected shellackings. Because of his splendid work at the initial sack and his ever cheerful disposition, dependable Charlie Kittredge was chosen by his mates to lead the Eagle ' s diamond destinies in his senior year. Class elections gave Greg Sullivan his fourth victory. Dave Meaney, Joe Mc- Laughlin, and Jim Brennan were chosen to aid him in the difficult work which senior year always provides. SENIOR Graduation year rushed upon us and with it came the determination to make this year a banner year in the history of Boston College. Among the faculty were seen many new faces. Rev. Patrick Cummings, our new Dean of Discipline, finding entrusted to his supervision a model college that required little disciplining, undertook the instruction of Senior Evidences of Re- ligion. Fr. Francis Sullivan divided his time between directing athletic activities and inoculating seniors with historical facts. Captain Frank Maloney proved an inspiring leader; and his stellar defence work, his off-tackle jaunts, and his ability to snare lengthy aerials proved the decid- ing factor in many of the year ' s victories. Flying high wide and handsome over all opposition, the Eagle alighted in the Polo Grounds and there met its match in the mighty Fordham Ram. Instead of crumbling under this sad blow, he returned to his nest, wiser and older in the ways of football, and once again his scream took on a triumphant ring. The Villanova Wildcat was handed his first B. C. upset in many years, when All-American Tosi and his mates completely stopped everything this high-scoring aggregation had to offer. For the first time in the history of the College, a frenzied student-body danced -1 the I934@stift utn y and sang about the burning effigy of the Purple Crusader, as it crackled and roared amid the flames of a huge bonfire at Cleveland Circle. Flanked by a fitting escort of motorcycle police, a long line of cars, aglow with flaming torches and screeching students, made its way to the Boston City Club, there to celebrate the annual Cross smoker. Finally, as the climax this season marred by a single defeat, a cool confident underdog welcomed to Alumni Field our friendly rivals from the heart of the Com- monwealth. With a simple but mystifying end-around play by Joe Killelea, the Eagle completely unhorsed the hard-riding Crusader and soared majestically to victory, to win the first leg of Mrs. Vincent P. Roberts ' trophy. Under the direction of Fr. Michael J. Harding, S.J., the senior Sodality in- augurated a series of symposia having as their fundamental doctrine the Divinity of Christ. This opportunity to further Catholic lay action was eagerly received by a large number of students and it gave birth to a movement which is comparable to the wonderful work accomplished by Catholic laymen in England. The Musical Club and the golf team took advantage of the Easter holidays to journey far from their native haunts at Chestnut Hill — the pill-chasers, throughout the sunny southland, and the songsters to the new Centre in New York City. The golfers, under Captain Eddie Fitzgerald, met with success, both socially and athletically; the former because of the traditional Southern hospitality they met throughout their travels, the latter because they exceeded the average for southern invasions for many years. At the Centre, the fact that the songsters had travelled so far from home, and the presence of a great number of our New York Alumni, seemed to inspire both soloists and groups to perfection in every rendition. With Jim Buckley as Concert Master, Ted Marier at the piano, Jim Deary and his trum- pet, and Leo Scully, our golden-voiced baritone, the group met with such success that this concert marked the fir.st in a series of annual presentations to be given at the Metropolis. A testimonial of our devotion to a loyal supporter and a sincere friend was given when the Class elected to dedicate the 1934 Sub Turri to our Dean, Rev. Patrick J. McHugh, S.J. As a feature of Father ' s Day, a group of Seniors, drawn principally from our athletes, brought back the melodrama of the gay 90 ' s and revived such characters as Jack Dalton, Little Nell, and the Floradora Sextette. Hago Harring- ton, the roguish villain, sorely vexed the staunched righteousness of Tom Blake, the famous Jack Dalton, as he tried to protect Little Nell, Jim Deary, from the wiles of the wicked world. And as our college days rolled along to a close, we found that we were not the great he-men we thought we were. For as we saw the Heights change hands and heard talk of the orals, a tiny lump arose in our throats and we felt the full force of the old adage all good things must come to an end. Even these, the happiest days of our lives, too soon closed in on us. As our final gesture, we dedicate this hi.story to the prayer that every senior will be blessed with the attainment of his fondest ambitions. Charles H. Duston -1 (ht 1934® stift (urn s The Prophet upon c azing into the crystal ball says that: GREG SULLIVAN — model for Success personified, and former Mayor of Jamaica Plain, will become just another three-cent stamp after the presidential campaign.

JIM BRENNAN— was cast to play the lead in the Goldwyn-Mayer talkie, The Silent Partner, because of lack of speech. He never stopped eating long enough to speak. JOE McLaughlin — succeeded J. P. Morgan recently and is now moulding piles of dough in a Bond Bread Bake Shop. Money doesn ' t bother him — it ' s the lack of it. LOLT MLTSCO — that payingless dentist, who extracts molars and dollars from his public, is now sojourning down south where the knee-grows. Isaiah had nothing on this guy — what a loss! ED HALLIGAN — that fine pinch hitter who was called in to bat as A. A. Pres. had a call to the priesthood — Ed says Many are cold but few are frozen! HERB KENNY — is as wrapped up in newspapers as usual. His last wish is to be buried in them also. The collitch scribbler is still hunting for a big scoop. FRANK MALONEY — that inspiring master sculptor holds a prominent position in the Art world. Mai was always a pretty good chiseler, anyway. JOE O ' CONNELL, JR— the William Randolph Hearst of Boston publishes his own scandal sheet, The Eyes of the Whirl. He gives reasons why his friends .should buy the paper — he has eleven. CHARLIE KITTREDGE — a smooth Port-sider, now heads the wine-list as a connoisseur of Port -wines. Oh, for being a lefty. TED MARIER — yesterday directed a band of Red Communists into City Hall with a Baton his shoulder. JOHN McMANUS— is still leading the Police Force. Yeh, they haven ' t caught him yet. Mac was quite a booster of our motto, Always be a leader. JOHN FREITAS — our best athlete joined the Coast Guard at Fairhaven and is doing Light-house keeping with an old college playmate. MARCUS LEWIS — successful editor of the new slap-stick magazine, The Sub-T- Tootsie has Chivalrous John Tierney and Money-bags McQuilland as his gag-men — they should be! RAY HARRINGTON— recipient of the B.S. degree is following in the footsteps of Sid Franklin, that fine American toreador and Spanish athlete. Our Pal Hago is still a borer!

TONY LA CAMERA—invented the game of Put and Take, but he doesn ' t live up to the first part of it. Where in the world has his Ethics gone to.! JOE TOSI — our Hero, is scalping with the Redskins. Pessimist Dugan used to say the Bull was a Tartar. The only time he was right! Remember when Flave was rated Father of the Class Papoose . ' ' Well . . .! T. DONAHUE — an excellent student who was very good at numbers and figures. Now he ' s wearing one at the Charlestown Recreation House. BOB GLENNON — the suave lad who came from where Somerville and som-are- not filled, delighted in debating with well established firms. He eventually married a widow. JIM DEARY — the youth who played Little Nell is quite busy lately playing up to people with that little trumpet of his. He ' ll be blowing bubbles soon. TOM BLAKE — Fr. Corrigan ' s electric chair was the beginning of this athlete ' s career, but the same thing in real life recently gave him an awful shock. He just couldn ' t take it, Baby! J.

BILL DONAHLTE — our valedictorian talked himself into a 90 day job with the state. Judge Good Day, wouldn ' t accept his alibi. He ' s got a nerve! JIM FAY — the ' 34 salutatorian, has a similar position at Danvers, saluting people with that old familiar Come on in, nuts, and get roasted. HAL RAMSEY — is sitting on the Supreme Court bench now.

NEAL HOLLAND— the Bo-Bromo of ' 34, who ran the 600 and gauntlet in college, is now running for the AVestern Union, in another smart outfit. MARTIN DOLPHIN — just couldn ' t go on with his career in the poetic field. Steve Fleming once told him that, Poets are born — not made. That ' s his story !

BILL PARKS — a constant user of Marchand ' s Golden Hair Wash, says he never liked blondes. Yeh, they get dirty too quickly! His buddy Tierney was also a rooter for brunettes. He just loved to look at those cute little blackheads, says Red. SOAPY WATERS — hasn ' t gotten over that little accident he had. James was always an enigma to his classmates, and a sight for sore eyes. Boy! What a sight ! JOE HALEY — that reserved D. A. has just exposed an exact duplicate of the Old Whiskey Ring of 1876, involving such prominent men as Ray Roberts and Phil Kelly. JIGGS KELEHER — took Horace Greeley ' s advice, Go West, young man, go West. So George established himself in the West End. Oh well ! Where there ' s a will there ' s a relative. BILL BOEHNER — was asked what he owed his success to and the reply was, to Frank Gallagher, and Doyle ' s Cafeteria. Our student coach is still coaching studes. TOM DALEY — that Pedagogical wizard recently married a school-marm who had neither principal nor class. No one ever appreciated Tom. JACK HURLEY — former song and dance man, is now a Longer Pants man from County Seat. He ' s going to have a party soon, and will invite his friends down. We ' re afraid that he ' ll need a table for more than two. JOHN Bx4RRY — became a custom tailor after all. He certainly sowed his wild Oats; and now he needs a horse to eat them. So what? JOHN DONNELLY — brilliant advertiser for Noonan ' s Hair Restorer, says it makes you look Neet and causes your hair to come out fine. But he for- gets the old saying, Hair today, gone tomorrow. LEO LEVEILLE — Lyons once made a bet with O ' Connor that Leo would become a surgeon. The poor fellows both lost! He is a butcher in a Parisian market! JIGGS LILLIS — (our idea of a dream) became a big fish merchant after many years at sea (in class). Jim lived on oysters but didn ' t find out until yesterday that they in turn lived on the .scavengers. What a fish! (I mean the oysters, Jim.)

Would that a metaphor might slip my pen To shake the very cosmos to the roots. How Fleming ' s mouth would twitch with envy then That metaphors should make the earth to quake! Like Pluto ' s iron tears, my tears shall drip Enough to run a foundry for a year. For sorrow throttles me within her grip And coyly clouts my head against a wall. No more to sit upon the student ' s chair Lulled to sweet slumber and to sweeter dreams While learned profs propound and tear their hair To dryly prove the Kantians are all wet. To hear no more the mysteries of Lamarck Or what the deuce a biophor is for How evolution left me in the dark Threatened by prowling Pithacartropus. Those lecture periods of blissful rest When slothful sleep swept down on noiseless wings As eager students with scholastic zest Probed metaphysics to the very bone ! O bonum, how we sought thee with a will And proved each adversary was a goose. And in those careless days we drank our fill From out of Learning ' s frothy fount of courses. And how we writhed upon that famous chair Yclept electric by the wi.ser ones As Ethics took us fii-mly by the hair And gave the classic body deadly shocks.

The Fourth Estate was there in force to view the prospects bright; They interviewed McKenney and found him full of fight. Well now I ' ll tell you, said youthful Joe, the boys don ' t look so hot. But we ' re gonna win, we ' re gonna win, and don ' t you think we ' re not. We ' ve lost a lot of veterans and many substitutes too. But we ' ve got a bunch of very good boys, the best I ever knew. And with these words the season began, and the Eagle spread his wings. With a Hey Nonny-Nonny and a Heigh-de-Ho, and several other things. St. Anselm ' s down from the hilltop, to test the Eagle ' s claws, They returned to the hills of New Hampshire, a failure in this cause. And then came old Loyola, the boys from Baltimore, But the Maroon and Gold ju.st .shone that day and rolled up an awful score, Now things were bright and hopeful, we were sure we ' d win the rest. And the hoys made ready for Centre, a game that would be a real test. A powerful club they had, the gentlemen from the South, Reared in ol Kentucky, they spit from the side of their mouth. They played great ball, the Colonels did, but the Eagle screamed too loud And the gentlemen, Suh, returned to the South enwrapped in a mournful shroud. The less we say about Fordham, the better ofl we ' ll be. For the Eagle lost his plumage and the Ram ju.st laughed in glee. Although the team, athletically, was hardly a winner there. The Social Life of old New York was given an awful scare. The AV ' York Pies.i, the Sun, and Time.i, and Winchell, alias the Snoop, All spread the news, the terrible news, of the Eagle ' s Social Scoop. Who ' s afraid of the P ' ordham Ram, was changed to a sorry tune. And the gang took flight and spent the night under the Harlem Moon. The B. LT. team was next in line, and the boys got started again. They swept the Terrier oft ' its feet, and used about fifty men. The Blue and Grey of Georgetown next bowed to the Eagle ' s ire. The boys from the Heights just tore them apart and they left with their tails on fire. The Villanova Wildcats next took the Stadium turf. To pluck the Eagle ' s feathers and leave in Victorj ' ' s mirth. 521 w-— E € flit suft ivixxx The Terrors Green from Maryland West, came to stop the Big Parade, But nothing could stop this powerful Bird and the Terrors paid and paid. For the Cross game the authorities said, the boys must have a rest. So they chartered a club in the Wayland Wilds, before the final test. The boys were all in beautiful shape, thanks to Doctor Jones, A powerful aid to John Barleycorn, who sang in doleful tones. I remember how Jones, in his cups used to say, How funny and strange is life. And then he ' d stutter and add this line, I ' ll surely get Hell from my wife. At the club that night O ' Brien sang, and Hardy did his dance, While the dusky-eyed lady crooned Let Us Take a Chance. There were lots of things went on that night the world will never know, — Especially below in the basement, where the Alumni drowned the foe. Nevertheless, to heck with the rest, let ' s get on to Holy Cross, That Crusading band from Worcester, that came, that saw, that lo.st. Twenty thousand rabid fans shrieked with wild delight, As the Eagles and Crusaders approached the scene of fight. The kick-off came, it was a shame to see the Purple fall, Whenever the powerful Eagle began to run the ball. Sweeping down the gridiron, with spinners, bucks and runs, The score-crazed Eagle warriors let loose their scoring guns. A pass was thrown by Freitas, without too much delay, It fell in the arms of a scrappy end by the name of Killelea. Xy H. N . The ball was on the five-yard line as Johnny called the play, A fake reverse, the end around. It was the Eagle ' s day! Six big points for Boston made the Purple sore. They swooped down the field with a vengeance and pushed across a score. At the opening of the second half, the Eagles were behind, But Furbush took a Freitas pass to cross the last white line. The crowd was in a fenzy, and showed with vivid sign, Its joy at a B. C. victory, the first since twenty-nine. We dedicate this simple Ode to the squad of thirty-four. To victory over HOLY CROSS — may the Eagle always soar! Raymond T. Harrington (he 193 13 5 11 . t THESIS I STATUS QUAESTIONIS: As yet we have proved nothing, for this is our first thesis (Thesis I, Advancing Irrational Psychology). However, by the time our treatise is completed, we expect to drive home two things: (a) that life is what you make it; (b) that blonde we met at the Philomatheia Ball. In this thesis (still advancing Irrational Psychology) we prescind from reason and faith so that the force of our proof rests entirely on hope and charity — our hope and your charity. There are various schools of thought and thoughtlessness against our contentions concerning life. Foremost are the ultra- Schoolmen, the moderate Schoolmen (if any) and the just plain, everyday School- men. The little Schoolmen, otherwise known as Schoolboys, are dealt with in other theses — c.f. The Schoolboys at School, The Schoolboys at Home, and The Schoolboys All at Sea. We base our proof on three first principles — wine, whoopee, and song, (hey, hey!). EXPOSITION: (As far as we know, this is the only exposition outside of a sideshow.) life — We consider life in general. This thesis (Thesis I, slowly advancing Irrational Psychology), has nothing to do with life as you find it, life of the party, life in prison, or life insurance. ' The Schoolmen say , life is a perfection by which a being has the capacity for immanent action. (c.f. Exposition of 1900 and Century of Decadence Exposition.) perfection — not a cigar; not a dream walking; it is any substance or accident essential for the integral nature of a thing. Life is sometimes a substance, more often an accident. immanent action — we deny that this is what makes a living being, living. The Schoolmen dodge the issue with the caustic and informal reply, Aw, sit on a tack! This is the first point on which we differ with them. EMPERICAL ANALYSIS of life is what you make it. what — a relative pronoun, you — a personal pronoun, make — a verb, it — an impersonal pronoun. Summary — Pronouns, 3; verbs, L ADVERSARIES: S-S-S-Schoolmen : they say, life is the capacity for immanent action. All Modern Croonologists : Bing Crosby, Rudy Vallee, Russ Columbo, and Johnny Freitas, who say, life is just a bowl of cherries — bo — bo — bo — bo. William Shakespeare, (an a lleged dramatist of the Elizabethan Period, or sumpin ' ) : his theory is, life is but a stage, etc., etc. You, too, can be the life of the party!

Minor: But living is life. Conclusion: Therefore all people are engaged in making their own life (i.e. — life is what you make it). Proof of Major: self-evident from the testimony of consciousness (ha! inside stuff), external and internal experience, definition, memory, an anything else we might have left out. (After all, we ' re only human.) Proof of the Minor: you ' re telling me ! OBJECTIONS: Overruled! (But for you stubborn people who refuse to be over- ruled, here goe.s — ). I.

A spreading fire moves of its own accord and this is a sign of life. Ergo, a sj)reading fire has life. Resp. We deny. If a spreading fire has life, all firemen are guilty of practising birth control (reductio ad pons assinorum). . Man is capable of immanent action per se and per accidens. Therefore immanent action is that which makes a living being. Resp. ipso facto, we deny: terra firma, we distinguish; in alio, we subsume; vice versa, we subdistinguish; ' e pluribus unum, we transmit; fiat lux, we grant with a hey, nonny nonny and a hot-cha-cha! IV. The proof involves a vicious circle. Therefore the thesis does not hold. Re.s ' p. We tran.smit. Being involved in a vicious circle is far safer than being enmeshed in an Eternal Triangle, if yo ' all will pahdon th ' gee ' metrical allusions. V. You are begging the question. Therefore the thesis is useless. Resp. In this depression we drop (or prescind from [ah, noblesse oblige]) all false pride and beg questions as well as other things (and it ' s a small man that would pick us up on such a point). N.B. All other objections are FOOLISH, FATUOUS, and FUTILE. c.f. The Emperor IV, 1, ii.

LAW CLOSES IN ON NOTORIOUS VILLAIN Notwithstanding the insidious efforts of Steve Hansbury, his crafty, but un- scrupulous barrister, Herbert L. Crimlisk, erstwhile secretary of the Fulton, was indicted and convicted of misappropriation of funds and brought to justice before the solemn court at the annual Fulton Mock Trial. Crimlisk of course pleaded not guilty, but the brilliant State ' s attorneys, W. D. Donahue and H. A. Kenny, working on the principle that ignoratio legis does not absolve from responsibility, dragged the unfortunate defendant into the light of truth and showed him up in his true colors. It was demonstrated that his associa- tion with certain low characters of Boston ' s fast night life was the cause of his moral decay. It was shown to the amazed Fulton jury that Crimlisk was responsible for the recent crime wave that has been sweeping the country of late, for the stock mar- ket crash, and for assassination of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, which (the historians would have us believe) was the spark that started the conflagration we call the World War. Whole droves of despicable characters were called in as witnesses to testify against the blameless reputations of the prosecuting attorneys, but the jury refused to believe the outlandish .stories that were told under sacred oath. Edmund J. Kelly, a willing mouthpiece for the Norwood money interests, and a tool in the hands of glib crime chieftains, aided Hansbury in carrying on the hope- less defense. John L. Roach was the presiding justice, and though basely accused of bias in favor of the State, to all unprejudiced observers, however, maintained a noble attitude of detachment and impartiality. _ the 1934 ®$n6f urn Xy vt, Here are published for the first time in any syndicated journal the results of a college graduate ' s investigation into the turmoil of world politics. In fidelity to his countrymen he has recorded faithfully, verbatim, his interviews with great men. As the Teights correspondent of the Thearst newspaper he has found beautiful simplicity and humble grandeur in the heroes of our modern civilization. INTERVIEW NO. 1. The great II Duce. (For purposes of clarity, I will picture myself as the shadow on the wall of Benito ' s study. Hence I, sweet public, am S.O.W., i.e., Shadow On Wall.) S.O.W. : I realize that a great privilege has been bestowed upon me, Benny ole sock, so I ' ll clip it quick. First, what is your favorite color. Ben: Huh? S.O.W. : Yes. Your favorite color. Ben: Ugh. S.O.W. : Of course, I should have known. Wait until I write that down. It was mauve you said, wasn ' t it. ' ' Ben: Huh? S .O.W.: Mauve? Ben: Ugh. S.O.W. : And now of course there ' s Camera. Ben: No canaries here. S.O.W. : Don ' t be so cagey about it. Doesn ' t he play a jaart in your great pro- gram of progress? Ben: Bah! S.O.W.: Well he is a little sheepish. I know. Sort of sissified at times. But isn ' t he virtually a good fighter in your estimation? Ben: He wins? S.O.W. : Well, sometimes. Ben: Ugh. No good. S.O.W.: Oh. Cootchy cootch, little man. You are cute at times. Oh yes, aren ' t you just daffy about your friend ' s right-hand salute. You know, the way he has all of his dear boys in their pretty brown shirts raise their right hands at him? Ben: My fren ? S.O.W. : Oh don ' t tell me you don ' t know whom I mean. Ben: Heetler? ( sensed that perhaps he was angry.) S.O.W. : Well ... in a way . . . that is ... I mean . . . well don ' t get mad about it, I only asked a civil question and I should think that the least you would do would be to ... (I don ' t remember anything that elapsed within the next three years. I, Shadow on Wall, fell when the wall caved in on me. Yet I have carried The Duce ' s message to the world. It is simply this: WHAT THIS WORLD NEEDS IS STA- BILIZATION. I WILL GIVE IT. AYE! I WILL COMMAND IT. ON THE (he 1934® suftf urn Xe£X INTERVIEW NO. 2. It seemed only fair to humankind that I should see the other side of the story. So I went to the German Chancellor. This time, however, I did not go into the executive chamber myself but sent in a dear friend of mine to question the queery . . . er query the question ... oh I don ' t know why I sent him in instead of me. Anyway, Bom Talfrey accepted his assignment and I listened at the door and wrote down every word. Since we were in Germany I am calling the interviewer S.O.B. (Stein of Beer). Hitler: My, but you are pretty. Ach himmel, you are beautiful! S.O.B. : Yes. They said I should join the movies back home. I sing well, too. Want to hear me sing? Hitler: Ja wohl, ja ja. S.O.B. : But Minnie had a heart just as big as a whale . . . Hi de hi. Yeah, man. Hitler: Cute. S.O.B.: Of course I came here for an interview for an American journal. I ' ll sing more for you when we both have more time together. How many years have you been aiming at the Chancellorship of your country? A mighty ambition which has been realized. You will tell me, won ' t you? Hitler :Nein! S.O.B.: I should have known. Let me see, that ' s nine isn ' t it? Hitler: What? S.O.B.: What you said. Hitler: I said: Nein! Nein! S.O.B. : Oh. How stupid of me. 18 years. My, my, what a .small world. Hitler: Ugh. (Stranye. that he should say that now, wasnt it?) S.O.B.: What is your favorite dish? And before I forget it, what do you think of Dolf uss ? Hitler: Shrimps. S.O.B.: Shrimps? What do you mean? Hitler: My favorite dish and Dolfuss. S.O.B.: Poor fish, eh? {Careful, Bom Talfrey, you are on dangerous ground!) Hitler: And you, how do you like America? Nice people, the Americans. S.O.B. : Oh yes, we try to appeal. Hitler: Lot of money in America? (He ivas sneaking up on our Bom.) S.O.B.: Only college boys have money. Tell me, Adolph, what do you think of Fascism? You know, II Duce ' s doctrine. Hitler: Acli himmel. You have asked one question too many. At this point I heard a loud crash. A thunderous crash. Something had ex- ploded in the other room. Poor Bom Talfrey, I thought, how can I ever ship his body back to America. I flung open the door and there he was on the floor, 530 the 1934 @ swHutri I % reeking with a bloody wound on his forehead. His mustache torn from his upper lip and his hair one tangled mess of blood. He had spoken his last word. I was sorry for poor old Hitler, because I did so want to give the world his message of peace and good will. Anyway I said, Bom Talfrey, you have robbed me of my prey. I was mad and he knew it. Shucks, answered Bom, when he threw the inkwell at me I got sore so I threw him into the wastebasket. So the obvious conclusion from this intellectual and muscular display is that the profound German scholar. Hitler, has the world at his feet, but he ' s standing on his head in the wastebasket. INTERVIEW NO. 3. Now for the last and greatest of the great figures. My own Editor of my own Teights. Mr. Sherbert Penny. I found him to be a good natured chap but prone to great indifference about world affairs. This is difficult for me to understand. A man in his position! Well, when I entered into his august presence, he was performing no less an act of charity than combing his hair. Here is the inter- view: (Lest I forget ... I am S.O.V. . . . Some Old Vanilla. Sherbert and Vanilla for a Penny.) Penny: Enter Oxford followed by a link. (Shakespeare, Lear Act XXI, Sc. 99) S.O.V. : What lovely teeth you have. Grandma. (He couldn ' t stump me. I showed him that I too could quote the masters.) Penny: Hark! ' Tis Agamemnon ' s wish: and great Achilles doth long to see unarmed the valiant Hector. (Sophocles, ' ' Songs My Papa Taught Me ) S.O.V. : Sa . . . weet . . . Ad . . . el . . . ine ... ( sang tenor.) Penny: (Coining to me and offering his hand) — You are a friend. You have touched me deeply. My Feature Editor, Roach by name and a cocky Roach at that, used to sing that to me at college . . . (He wept on my shoulder.) S.O.V.: Come, Come! This is much ado about various things. I came for an interview. Penny: Interview? Alas, I never thought that I would ever have to be inter- viewed. They say it is like the siege of Troy. Is it. Well, begin. S.O.V.: Collar. Penny: What manner of madness is this? Collar! What for? S.O.V. : I want the size. Penny: Oh yes, the size. (He was uvakening. I could see it.) Collar, 173 ; shoes, 8?4; hat, 7?4; weight, 132j 4. When will it be ready? S.O.V.: Ready? c (he l934®swHuTO i mi gaa Penny: My suit. Aren ' t you the tailor? S.O.V. : ( merely ignored this.) — To what do you attribute your success? Penny: H.O. in the morning . . . Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio. S.O.V. : What do you think of Bing Crosby? . . . Jeeves, I said, you jibber. Penny: Never heard of him . . . Nymph, in the orisons be all thy sins remem- bered ! S.O.V.: Favorite author? ... J. Parsloe. Parsloe, disgorge that pig. Penny: Sherbert Penny, of course . . . Get thee to a nunnery! Farewell. At this point he bade me follow him. I did. I am. I always will be, if I ever expect a statement significant to solve the depression. Ted N. Marier, ' 34 CONTRARY TO GENERAL BELIEF— 1. The name Smith is not common but proper. 2.

C iht 1934 @j5u6f urn (Bn tfje i uinsi of Jlositon College Not a stone on a stone; we watched the black ruins; Even the smoke of the fire, wind-washed away. These were the spires that crouched, cloaked in the darkness Towering to buffet the far-shooting charger of day. Once from these halls, the candles of knowledge Stretched their long arms in a net o ' er the world. Here thousands read by the tapers of truth. Here the flashing banners of wisdom unfvu ' led. Here thousands marched in a silent crusade Lives for their weapons, thoughts for their blades. Faith for their sustenance, strengthening courage So long ago the fond memory fades. All of it gone, you whispered, the awe. That haloed the wreckage, choking your breath All of it gone. ' ' , I pondered while standing High in the ashy-heaped stronghold of death. All of it gone? Then the heavens The brass burst of trumpets, the tramping of men The rearing of stallions, the sun flash of metal The thunder, the faith of the Crusades again. Then it was hushed but somewhere, I knew. Something still lived that never dies And brothers .still meet in this vortex of evil Each known to each by the tapers of truth in their eyes! Herbert A.
