Our theme for the Purple and White this year, “Hail, full of grace, is appropriate because this is the annual book of memories of life at Assumption College, and Assumption was named for Our Lady’s greatest feast. At Assumption the students are taught standard high school sub¬ jects, discipline, and a devotion to the Blessed Virgin. They are taught to go to her in times of trial and tribulation as they would their own mother, for did not Christ Himself give her to us when He said to John from the cross, M Son, behold thy mother; Woman, behold thy son.” And truly, never was it said that he who sought her intercession, implored her help, was left unconsoled. We may take for an example of this statement the thousands of people who have been so miraculously cured of every conceivable disease or illness at the Grotto of Lourdes in France. People journey there from all parts of the world, to pray at that shrine to her Son, through the Blessed Virgin. We are all aware to what extend a boy will go to do something for his mother, even when he has an impassive interest in what she has asked him to do. What then, would not Christ do at His mother’s request, He Who has so great an interest in those for whom she is interceding? Thus we may say to those of you who are leaving Assumption, and to those who will return, “Do not forget your devotion to the Mother of Christ. Pray to her for success in your vocation and in your every effort and your prayers shall be answered.” —Editor. r, C.K SINK Administration P. GF. ELEVEN MeAAcuje. f nxun the P ' le ' Lide+it THE publication of the Ambassador is a reminder that the close of the school year is now within range of your vision. Whether the year has been a useful one depends on the individual effort put forth by each student. No one can judge now with any certainty what will be the fruits of the year, for education is an investment in the future. It is only when the work is finished, when you leave the College and enter into life, when the scaffolding of school days is cleared away and crowding interests enter in to take the place of lessons and studies, that the results will truly come to light. We do know that the cheerful fulfillment of the duty of the hour, however commonplace, the diligent application to the immediate respons¬ ibilities, will qualify one to meet the severe strains of later life. One’s talents and temperament indicate what he may become; his way of think¬ ing shows what he wishes to make of himself. As the individual attitude reveals the man. the spirit of the student body manifests the ideals of the school. The Year Book should be the mirror reflecting these principles in action. It should portray the interest and colour of the Campus life, the full and rounded activities of school days. Every phase of life should have its part: religious, intellectual, athletic and artistic. But it also should indicate that the whole purpose of all is to develop a supernatural outlook upon the world, that we should look beyond to the goal of life’s pilgrimage and estimate the things of time by the standards of eternity. In years to come when you glance through the Year Book of 1941 , may it serve to recall not only the memories of persons and places dear to you, but also reanimate the ambition of younger days to do the right thing because it is right, and to avoid wrong action because it is wrong.

THOMPSON, C.S.B., B.A. Principal I ' AGK POURTISKN MeMeuje jpatft the Principal NOTHER year brings with it a now group of graduates and again the question arises “Whither goest thou? . Young, ambitious, full of con¬ fidence, you look for new worlds to conquer. Rut how may you best ac¬ complish the goal v.hich you have set in life? Accomplishment you have made thus far, as you are only a few of the number who set upon this task lour years ago. Your tasks from this point forward will vary: but success will be yours if you rely upon the principles of goodness, dis - cipline and knowledge which have been instilled into the very fibre of your being during your High School days. Be good boys, and you shall attain the goal of true success in time and in eternity. Be disciplined boys, with that self-discipline which alone can give you mastery over yourselves and the problems you must face in life. Be learned boys, for nothing can bring you greater satisfaction than a knowledge of the best that has been handed down to us by the genius of the race of mankind. In these three branches of wisdom go forward. You have made only a beginning; but you have attained the seed from which great men are sprung. Upright, self-disciplincd, learned, we expect you to be. Apply these three principles to your lives, and we shall have no misgivings that success and enduring happiness will be yours. ( . J. Thompson, C.S.B. l ' GK FIFTEEN m I I REV. M. J. PICKETT, C.S.B.

FARRELL P ERHAPS in every Student ' s life there is one teacher who stands out above all tm rest; one man who has had a vita! part in influencing that student ' s life; helped to mould that character and to be, in part, responsible for some of the ideas and principles he holds to-day. Father Donnelly played that part for many years at Assumption Coll ege. Countless is the number of students who went to him for advice and countless are those who still retain the concrete ami oftentimes dynamic pronouncements of Father Donnelly. How many have benefited by his thundering discourses in the chapel nnd in the classroom! Father Donnelly, we are told (and we should know without being told) never was known to utter an unkind word about anyone or anything. He knew the true meaning of charity; he knew the frailties of human nature and most important—he know and thoroughly understood hoys. Charity is a virtue that is comparatively rare in the world in which we live. Perhaps that is why we were attracted to thh holy man with his kindly smile and benignant manner. Impatience was decidedly lacking in Father Don¬ nelly ami no matter how busy he was he always bad time to talk with a student and the interview almost always ended with a pat on the shoulder or a tap on the chin. tn the classroom and lecture hall, Father Donnelly drilled every lesson thoroughly and no new work was taken until there was no doubt in his mind that each and every pupil understood every phase of a particular lesson. Arts students of recent y ars re¬ member Father Donnelly for his classes in Psychology and Logie, He asked every day for years what the definition of Logic was and every class began with the same words: “Well now. Jack, Bob, or Gene, or Dick, do you know what Logic is? He be¬ longed to the old school of education and was a strong adherent to the “drill and mem¬ orize system. Followers of the Adlerian and Hutch mian concepts of education most p ' oiably scoff indignantly at this method of teaching but from the students ' point of view it will fie found that any subject studied under Father Donnelly was learned and well learned. He taught us in a simple manner the correct and logical way to gu about our lessons. He taught us to concentrate upon a piece of work and to derive knowledge from it. i PA GK TH ENT Y TXVft ■ In 1920 ■ In 1940 FV4THER Donnelly was born m New York City in 1871. He was the son of Edward I Donnely and Mary McKenna Donnely, His parents met in New York and were married at St. Francis Xavier Church here. Father Donnelly was baptized there as were his two sisters and four brothers. His mother and father both were dead when he reached the age of six. At that time their newly appointed guardian sent them to I oronto. f Canada, to be reared and educated. The motherless family was cared for in Toronto by a friend of the guardian until the members were old enough to attend school. Two older sisters, however, went to Loretto Abbey Convent. Father Donnelly eventually attended Be La Salle Academy and from there went to St. Michael ' s College. He graduated from that college and then studied for the priesthood in the Congregation of St, Basil. After ordination he taught at St. Michael’s and from there he was sent to the various Basilian schools in Texas—Waco, La Forte, San Antonio and Galveston. Later he founded the present St. Thomas College in Houston, which to-day is one of the fittest and most modernly equipped of all the Basilian Colleges. When he finished his superiorship here he was transferred to Sainte Anne de Detroit. In 1932 Father Donnelly tame to Windsor to Join the Philosophy Department of Assumption College. Last September, when he was returning to Windsor after a visit with his family in New York, he was stricken on the train en route. After sixteen days of illness he passed away in New York City on October 1. A devout priest, a thorough teacher, a time friend was Father Donnelly, May we always remember his sound principles and may we try to emulate his ever glowing spirit of Christian charity. ■ Ordination Mis Sister, Mother, Himself at 6 Years PACK TWKNT Y-THRKE ALEXANDER MacDONALl) DROUD as we are of the fact that many former Assumption students have donned the military uniform in service to their country, we can¬ not but be grieved when one departs from our midst, to be consumed by the hungry demon of war. Yet wars must sometimes take place, and when they do, the lives of many must be sacrificed, in order that succeed¬ ing generations may tuste the fruits of peace. Alexander .MacDonald—a former student of Assumption High School—has already given his life for that ideal. Stoker Alexander MacDonald. R.C.N.. was born at Freshwater, Isle of Wight, England, on November 30, 1918. He came to Canada in 1919, and he lived at Port Hood, Nova Scotia, until he came to Windsor in 1924. He attended St. Francis School in Sandwich until 1932. Assumption open¬ ed her doors to him the following year, and here he remained until the completion of his High School course in 1936. The Assumption Church Altar Boys can also claim him as one of their own, for he s erved Mass at Assumption Church for several years. He is still remembered by many of that Club as one whose cheerfulness was in¬ fectious, and whose witty remarks were many and appreciated. Alexander MacDonald joined the Royal Canadian Navy in the Spring of 1940, and left for Halifax in August. He was a Stoker on the R.C.S. Jervis Bay, which was torpedoed and sunk in November, 1940. The waves which covered the doomed ship also claimed his body. May his soul rest in peace. Carl Czaczkowski W HEN Assumption students returned from their Christmas holidays, they were grieved at the report that Carl Czaczkowski had passed away but a day before. Carl had died suddenly in his home in Detroit. He was buried from St. Theresa’s Church, the student body of Assump¬ tion High School being represented by Bob Ryan, Carl Hermann, Donald Besterci and Eugene Casey. Our first student Mass of the year was off¬ ered for the repose of his soul. The deceased had been a student at Assumption for a short time, but the news of his death came as a great shock and a cause of deep regret to us all. We extend our condolences to his family in their sorrow. PACK TWKNTY-FOVR PAGE TWEXTY-FIVK The Chapel Rose Window . . . Most beautiful in Canada — a trift of loyal alumni. Qood-Lye to you, Cj ' iadLi Y OU are going out into a world that is torn by war and strife, where men are fighting against fellow men. It is up to you to make for your¬ self a place where you can take a firm stand for your God, Country ' and all the high ideals that you have attained in these past school years. The graduates of 1941 find th emselves on the brink of a tall precipice, where one false step means the crashing down of all the hopes that they have built. Let us not have this happen. Let us all work togther in the years to come. Let us not forget the other fellow—the less fortunate. For the past school years all have worked together on that climb up the ladder to where they are now. Let that relation towards one another continue. Those school days of learning may be compared to a black misty night, where everyone is groping for that thing called knowledge. Now like the rising of the sun of the world that was in darkness, comes the graduation. That day not only signifies the ending of the era of learning, but the be¬ ginning of the era of making use of that learning. Each is equally im¬ portant. The first was successful—may the second be the same. So, good-bye to you, the class of 41, and good luck. May you enjoy life to its full extent by attaining the success that awaits you. Jerome Bette.

S OME day when you haven’t anything to do—when you are just lazying around—you will think of your high school year book, dig it out and thumb through its pages. As you do so, thoughts like these will run through your mind: “By golly, it wasn’t such a bad joint after all. I sure had my troubles and worries there, but 1 wouldn’t trade those years for all the gold in the Yukon. “Why, I never had better friends than those Assumption schoolmates that 1 knew so well. I still keep in touch with some of them. There cert¬ ainly were some swell fellows. “I’ll never forget Jack ‘NOSE’ Lyons—there was a guy! Couldn’t see his hand in front of his face without his ten-power glasses—but he was always a good sport, and managed to have something to do with everything that went on. Then there was ‘BUCK’ Reaume—he was a pretty quiet guy. I didn’t know him very well, but everyone liked him. He was a star footballer, too. “Jerry Swiacki—who didn’t know him? He was elected the most pop¬ ular fellow in the school—alright, so he WAS runner up—we bow to Joe Kiborn. Jerry was another sharp footballer and won tho ‘Most Valuable Player’ award in ’41.” I guess no-one who attended A. C. betwen 1937 and 1941 will ever forget Fr. Thompson—I don’t think he ever had a thought for anyone but HIS BOYS. I was one of them. He pigged me now and then, but I nevei begrudged him for it, because I had it coming. We had some pretty good teams there, too. The senior hockey team won the W.O.S.S.A. championship back in ’40 and the basketball team was always worthy of honour. In October the school was grieved at the death of the lovable old Father Donnelly. He was a marvellous little man. Everywhere, no matter where he was, he had a smile for everybody. If a student wanted a candy- bar or a bottle of pop, off he went to Father Donnelly lor it. He was never paid back, but he never hesitated about a loan. I will try to remember him in my prayers. Yes, we all remember the high school “drayma , For Her Che-i-ld s Sake” with Jimmy Maher as the heroine “Pansy Paine” and Jerry Bette as the hero “Fairfax Kisselbergh”. We knew that Jimmy was good from the performance he gave in “Pure as the Driven Snow”, but Jerry won his spurs in the latest production. Yes.

Jamsse pagr routy-two 3a i AN opening the thick, jail-like door of class 3A, situated at one end of ” the hall, a bleak, drearisome scene confronted me. A very stale and stagnant atmospheric condition, which existed in the room, attacked my nasal senses, making it almost impossible to breathe. I staggered over to my seat, and set my books uron the desk. Placing myself in a half- slouching position, I settled down to witness another forty minutes of nerve-wracking English from a new teacher on the staff, a Mr. Potts, I believe. The period vas introduced by the usual roll-call, with each student rising and answering, “Sir , as his name was called, (the “sir” business being something new on the curriculum of Assumption College). During the time of war anything can be expected. But, personally, I believe that military training should not be tolerated in the class-room. If it must at all continue, I suggest that the faculty supply uniforms. Aside from the dictatorial beginning, the period progressed rather smoothly, not mentioning any of the peculiar noises which at times inter¬ rupted and disturbed the speaker, making it almost impossible to continue. The aggressors were dealt with in the manner of conciliation, rather than coercion. Then the teaching resumed. The teacher’s melodious voice en¬ chanted the environment. As time passed, the most enchanting sound of all was heard—the bell! The savages lurked f rom their seats and made for the door and emptied the room in nothing flat. Of course there was always the straggler who wished to ask the teacher some pertinent (?) question—to get a “slant” on the coming exam. In closing my little short, sharp and ship-shape 3A scene, I use the words that Mr. Potts would be likely to reply to a lad who had a tendency to act smart during his academic work, quote: “Do you insinuate that I should tolerate with such diabolical insolence from such an inferior as you? It appears very supercaliflagalisticexprealagotious that you do.”— Unquote. “J” Arbour. PAGE FORTY-THREE Top Row: E. Mailloux, A. Rerthiaumo, C. Stint son, D, Mitchell, G. Reaume, R, Conway, J.

However, it cannot claim to be the smartest class in the High School Department.

Often indeed, the teacher who ventures thither seems to be suffering prolonged agony. But his desires are far from being undefined, cons’sting as they do of a comnrehcnsive in¬ clination to spill the blood and fracture the bones of three or four quarters of the conglomerate mass before him. The sensations activating the tidy little 2A mob, however, are minus all rancour and ill-will. Gore-gouging and frame-fracturing have, there¬ fore, been reduced to a minimum. Father Burns has so ardent an effection for the denizens of 2A that he diminishes the impact of home-work on request. Mr. Eckert becomes wreathed in smiles, and waves ecstatic arms, as a preliminary to intro¬ ducing some new lesson material We must admit, of course, that otherwise Mr. Eckert does not give way too enthusiastically to the softer sentiments. 2A is full of the “joie de vivre”, and this admirable peculiarity emerges in a tendency towards an interminable uproar—an uproar led by DeCreane, Brown, Goodwin and Cameron, and nourished by Greenway, Williams, Kratzmiller et al. Poss¬ ibly the only real manifestation of idiocy, the only persistent perversity discernible in this collection of angels, is an unalterable refusal, in the heavenly realm of English composition, to inject periods at the ends of sentences and to arrange the vowels and consonants of words in teh propre ordre (as recognized by reputabel dictionareis) The lads from 2A erupt from the school when the classes are over, with hearty and explosive yips of delight. The obvious feeling of relief and escape are difficult to accommodate with the glad hum of industry and zeal which prevails during lesson time. Here we have a seeming con¬ tradiction. I do not presume to resolve it. Only Einstein and Aristotle in close collaboration could do so. Amen. Dan O’Donnell r.XGK FORTY-SEVBN Top Row: K. Berthiaume, F. Dallair, R. Baxter. Second Row: W.

W hen Mr. Conway asks Arthur Hands a question, he provokes the lad. But we all enjoy his encyclopedic bursts. Arthur Gossetin is pro¬ gressing wonderfully after a long illness. Nice fight, Art!

I think, rather, that the blame can be placed on the existence of a lunch room on the bottom floor. Wo aren t the sort of fellows with marvellous “brains”, as is easily seen trom our marks. It isn’t that we don’t thirst for knowledge. The trouble lies in the fact that this thirst was satisfied long ago. We aie famous for raising a rumpus when there is no teacher in the romm. We have often have been informed that we can be heard veryl far down the corridors. Gerry Swiacki, who strives to hold us in check during our daily study period, has a strange habit of bouncing a book weighing about three pounds off the fellows heads, particularly Eddie Zakoor s. Mr. Crawley, our English teacher, who has recently left for New Hamp¬ shire, used to send Joe Arpin out of class in an attempt to cure him of the horse-laugh; and can Joe laugh! We are a very decent bunch otherwise. We don ' t bother our teachers much, and they stopped bothering us long ago. Some are still trying to make students out of us. These are the ones who never say die, and who still believe in the old saying that “Where there ' s life, there ' s hope , e.g.. Father Girard.

Among the highlighted events of the year was the never-ending battle between Pat O’Shae and Jack Gartman to determine who was the master of the manly art of face-making. Jerry Meretski has an unpre¬ cedented ability to explain undone homework. Frank Mollard has a per¬ petual alibi for not being at 8.00 study; he has to stay home and do the dishes for his mother. Just picture Frank in a nice frilly apron wash¬ ing at the dishes. Not everything went just right, however, for just after Christmas we heard that Carl Czackskowski was the victim of an unfortunate accident, and was to be buried a few days later. The serv¬ ices were held at Saint Joseph ' s in Detroit. There were only a few ' present; among them were the class representatives, Bob Ryan, Carl Herrmann and Gene Casey. But time heals all wounds, and before long Gartman and O ' Shea were making faces again. Carl Herrman was a swell mission collector. We finished sixth in the mission race, w ' hich is not bad at all, considering the number of classes entered. Towards the end of the year, Bob Ryan began to kneel down auto¬ matically when Father Young’s algebra class began. He was on the floor more than he was in his seat. We have had many good and many bad times, but all in all we are sure that every member of the class will remember his freshman days in 1C. “Bud” Casey. PAGE FIFTY-NINE I A ' - • - . :- Top Row: A.

On the contrary, the class has partaken in many activities such as baseball, football, handball, etc., and has some of the best athletes in first form. Our best quality in this field was sportsman¬ ship, which any team must have to be really successful.

It, however, has one difficulty, which makes it not as outstanding as other classes Tills trouble lies in the fact that its members are so scat¬ tered among fourth year classes. We might even say that it has no def¬ inite class of its own, but that is not to say that it is not a certain definite class of fellows. As in former years, the library is still the tryst ing-phice for fifth year There one may find P Charbonneau deeply absorbed in a book, while others, such as Janisse, Piche, Brogan, Pare and Ellerbusch, studying Latin. At the far end of the library will be found Beuglet and McIntyre talking over an offer from Jack Adams of Red Wing fame Certain students shine in certain classes For instance, English is Wilson ' s chief worry, and Blane’s rest period. Chemistry is the time for Hiscock and Heffernan to argue any topic but Chemistry This also holds true for McMannus and Semple, but not so for tha more studious memb¬ ers of the class as Walsh Markham, Birch and Egan We must not forget Henry Arn ld, Malcolm Cox, Jim O ' Dricoll and Woonton, who share the limelight in Physics. We wish to proffer our sincere, earnest wishes for success to every member of Fifth Form who have come upon the greatest turning-point in their lives, to go on into College or to carry on in the great world pre¬ pared as they are. But, however you choose, don ' t go away and let the memories of your schooldays at Assumption leave you. Peter Strickland. PAGE SIXTY-FOUR Top Row: M. Cox, J. Martin. K. Woonton, C. Birch, P.

Year Book Advertising Staff ENTRUSTED with the task of obtaining advertisements for the nine- t een forty-one edition of the Assumption High School year book, our advertising staff stands forth as a credit to the school. The members worked hard. In doing so, they boosted the sales of this book. Hundreds of dollars were brought in for advertisements, an excellent proof of the hard work done by this staff. The American students—who have many business relations in the United States—obtained all our American advertisements. The Canadian students procured those from Canada. The working day of a student on this staff was not easy. Returning home after a hard day at studies, he would rush his cleaning-up prepar¬ ations to call on some likely prospect. Ten chances to one he would return home late that evening—tired and happy—with an “ad”. Such was the daily routine of a member of this staff.

Thus was ushered in with flying colours a year in Music which has proven to be the busiest and most successful yet Since that time, the Band performed conspicuously at religious and civic functions, parades, theatre nites, over the radio, at Windsor’s first Blackout, and set the tempo of the “Pep” rallies, the football games and tNe basketball games. Their stirring performances at the Football games, both in playing and maneu- vring, won them the plaudits of the student body and the fans as well as the com¬ mendation of the press We quote from The Windsor Daily Star in connection with the Assumption-Sandwich game, which was the high-light of the football season: “High School football in Windsor has gone big time. With 2,500 admiring customers in the stands and on the sidelines at Kennedy Stadium last night for the Sandwich-Assumption senior game, the half time inter¬ mission was filled with as inspiring a sight as the most exacting patron of U S college football could ask Out from the stands came the Assumption High School 40-piece band, its purple, white and grey uniforms, its polished instruments, gleaming under the arc lights. In front marched the leaders, a trio of slim youngsters in white sweaters, trousers and shoes who went into a baton-swinging act that would do cnedit to professionals They marched down the field and under the goalposts, the silver batons of the three young¬ sters flailing the air, whipping up over the cross-bar, to be caught without a falter They led the Band down in front of the stands, where once more the youthful Drum Majors put on their act. Then the Band swung into a huge letter S and played the Sandwich School Song. From there they moved to the As sumption stands and the letter A was unfolded by the bandsmen. The Assumption College school song went with it, and so did the baton-swinging. Then they marched back into the stands It was smooth, short, well-paced And it made a hit with every fan in the place With emphasis on the work of those three, unnamed youngsters”. These three white-clad youngsters, who filled in the place left vacant by Jack Harris, Drum Major of last year, were Bob Gluns and his dim¬ inutive assistants, Don Cousineau and Francis Pare, who filled in the breach and led the band to new- heights of glory, and won city-wide re¬ cognition for their twirling and leadership With the football season over their work had just begun. !n October the Band went to Amherst burg, to do its bit for the Red Cross, and later to pro¬ vide the music for the graduation exercises of St, Rose High School On November 14th they made their first radio appearance, as Assump¬ tion’s contribution to Education Week, and the entire programme was recorded. The Fall ap¬ pearances of the Band also included a Concert at St Mary ' s Academy, a political rally at St, Francis Hall, and on November 2fith an Assump¬ tion nite at the Tivoli Theatre, THE DRUM-MAJORS PAGK SEVEN? ' Y-FOVR After Christmas the Band started in again, with more requests than ever for its services. They played for the basketball games, featuring the songs of our opponents, and giving a stirring performance at each appear¬ ance. On the occasion of the bestowal of the Christian Culture Award on Madame Sigrid Undset, the Band provided appropriate music, including patriotic tunes, am ngst which was the Norwegian National Anthem. Other feature appearances of the Band were in the War Savings Drive Parade, (the largest ever held in Windsor), the Polish Legion Parade in May, with the B nd in the position of honour; at Windsor ' s first Black¬ out, in connection with the Citizens ' s Civil Defense Programme, staged at Sacred Heart auditorium; the Annual Many ' s Day procession, at which the Band acted as a g ard of honour to the Blessed Sacrament, and played the hymns for Benediction; the Separate School Oratorical Finals in our Gymnasium, and the visit of the World ' s Heavyweight Champ., Joe. Louis, to the school; the parade in conjunction with the Annual Arts Banquet; the “Spitfire Parade on May ‘21st, sponsored by the Windsor Police, in aid of Britain. FORWARD — MARCH ! PAGE SEVENTY-FIVE J JI The two most outstanding performances of the Band during the Concert season were the Annual Merry-go-Round, held on March 17th, and their performance in the Musical Festival at Sarnia, on May 9th. The programme offered by the Band on the occasion of our Third Annual Merry- go-Round was the most pretentious yet attempted by the Band, including as it did works of Wagner, Franz I.ehar and Schubert, outstanding popular tunes and trick numbers as well as excellent solos by the Band members. The brilliant performance of the Band was a revelation to many of the audience and was roundly applauded. Stimulated by the rousing send-off given them by our principal, and the whole student body, the Band—42 in number—boarded a Greyhound Streamliner for Sarnia, to compete in its first Music Festival. Though pitted against two of the best Bands in Ontario, the inspired performance of our boys gained them a mark of 80 points, being nosed out of first place by one point. Our soloists, Tom Gates on the clarinet, Richard Brinza on the Cornet, John Bensette on the Trombone, Robert Watson on the Euphon¬ ium and Evariste Faucher on the Cornet, won a First Prize, two seconds and two thirds in that order. The boys carried the name of Assumption royally. By their splendid conduct, their snappy appearance and excellent performance (perhaps the best of the entire year) they so impressed the Festival audience, that they received thunderous applause and were given an invitation to play as a guest Band at the Mammoth Tattoo in Sarnia this Summer. V ith twelve invitations following in the wake of our successes at Sarnia, and with the boys eyeing a 200-mile jaunt to the Waterloo Music Festival, where the Band and 14 soloists hope to compete, it will lie almost the first of July before we write finis to this year of outstandng musical achievements. A special word of thanks to the Professor: A virtuoso on the Cornet—well versed in the field of Band music, a solo eoroetist for many years under the famous John Philip Sousa, holding a Fellowship in the Royal College of Musicians—he has used his vast experience in the interest of our Band to bring it to its present prominent position.

It is as old as the twentieth century—to which it is further related by the assured circumstance that the said century is the silliest in human history. Responsbility for the inception of the society must rest squarely on the shoulders of the denizens of the local environs who flourished in the palmy and halcyon days of AD. 1900. Among the founders, we take great pleasure in enumerating our dear friend, Father Charles Collins. Under the aegis of Father Guinan a new technique was devised for a satisfactory description of which an adequacy of verbiage does not appear in any dictionary yet published. We will but lamelv remark, therefore, that the refinished structure had two keystones. (This in itself, obviously, marks the invention of an entirely new order of architecture). Keystone A. was Mr. R. McCormick of Aberdeen University’s College of thrustful endeavor. Mr. McCormick set up within the Society an honour¬ ary group, known as the Society of Scottish Scholars, consisting of the winners of the annual cup of oily coppers and appertaining privileges. Keystone R. was the Sarge, a citizen of rural Tilbury, whose aimless antics are fresh in the memory of many still living. The function of the Sarge was, roughly speaking, decorative in the manner of spinach, depend¬ ing from the hirsute visage of a walrus. The present regime of the S.M.L.S. is motored by the solid genius of the writer of these lines. He promises to provide a pretty patch of palpi¬ tating piffle for the venal seance. Our readers are asked to forget that the autumnal spasm might have degenerated into an unseemly brawl, but for the timely intervention of Mr. Potts, and are urged to concentrate on the spring assembly, with its certainty of a radiant and rhapsodic repertoire, accompanied by an absence of mice in the buzz-box.

AIRPLANE CLUB TOR the first time in the history of this school, in response to the over- . ' vv J lelmin £ enthusiasm of the younger set, a model club has been org¬ anized. This club is not mere child’s play. You would be surprised at the formula invoked in the design of a well-performing model. The initiative in the organization was taken by William Hilton, who talked Mr. Looby into procuring suitable tables for modelers’ use. By universal acclaim, William Hilton was chosen president. Financial wor¬ ries were assigned to Robert Rooney, and Dan Fleming was elected sec¬ retary. Mr. Looby was appointed faculty advisor, and the club prevailed upon Harry Hilton to become instructor. The boys have turned out sev¬ eral well-performing models. ■- 1 on SEvEttr y-::r.ur cJU M I I’ HW BIOHTX L RelUf 4044 si Actuuti i MY LORD AND MY GOD!

It is the finest in the whole school, for we have the privilege of serving the priests of the college when they say Mass. We organised this year into a club, under the direction of Mr. Barry, who is the Sacristan. We called our club the St. John Bosco Club, and we chose this saint for our patron. This club meets once a week. At our meetings we study the ceremon¬ ies of Low Mass, Missa Cantata and Solemn High Mass. We also have liturgy classes, during which we study the development of the altar, vestments and church architecture. We study all forms and types of archticture, and discuss the merits of each style. We also study the history of the Mass very thoroughly. It is a pleasure to serve the Masses every morning. In our club meet¬ ings we have studied Rubrics so thoroughly, that the slightest action is uniform on all the altars. Boys from this club also serve the students’ Mass every morning. The requirements for membership in our club are very exacting: a boy must be of good character, he must have a love for the ceremonies of the altar, and a thorough knowledge of the memorized Latin prayers.

Queen with the stars. As a diadem crowned.” IN these words ot song the Sodality of Mary at Assumption High 1 School greet once a week their Mother and their queen. For nearly seventy years the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin has been established in our midst, and tens of thousands of Assumption students have loved God better, and li ed better lives, by means of the countless graces they have received, through membership in the family of Mary. An event of great interest was the blessing of the new Sodality flag, on the seventieth anniversary of the Sodality. The flag is of blue and white rayon, with the Sodality monogram; a triangle, a crown, and a sword, on red velvet. The Archangels cMoly A+uj U ' Sodality DVERY Tuesday, the members of the Holy Angels ' Sodality assemble in the chapel to recite their office, to sing a hymn of love and praise to their guardian angel, and to hear instructions given by Father Pickett, the director of the sodality. The work of the Holy Angels ' Sodality is to promote devotion to our Guardian Angel, who is always by our side, an intercessor for us at the throne of God. Our Guardian Angels are a very powerful influence for good. They have access to the throne of God. and are only too eager to intercede for us, if we will but ask their help.

This group is made up of one boy select¬ ed from each class to collect the monthly dues which go to aid missionaries here and abroad. Pictured above you see the fellows who made this year one of the best in the history of the Mission Society. Mr. J. O’Reilly headed the Society, and the “A Man” contest which netted such a great amount was his brainchild. He also fostered the idea of publishing the standings of each class to instill a competitive spirit. This system consisted of posting the individual class and the amount of money donated by it. IB led the field throughout the greater part of the year, and we believe that most of the credit for this is due Joe Deane, the coll¬ ector for that class. In the course of the year, the Missions Society sponsored several other activities, such as raffles, minor dramatic productions, etc. Father M. J. Pickett was the Director-General and took a very intense interest in the activities of the club. We wish to congratulate not only Mr. O’Reilley, Father Pickett and the mission collectors ,vvho did such an excellent job, but also every student of Assumption High School for their marvelous spirit in giving to the Missions. We shall always remember the words of Fr. Pickett: “If you give to the missions with the right spirit your reward will be a hundredfold.” RICHARD SULLIVAN. PAGE EIGHT Y-SIX FORTY HOURS THE Catholic students of Assumption College enjoyed the three days’ privilege of being able to visit the Blessed Sacrament on Exposition during the Forty Hours’ Devotion which took place the sixteenth, seven¬ teenth and eighteenth of March. This religious function is a major event of the school year. The devotion opened Sunday morning with the celebration of Solemn High Mass, and the procession of the Blessed Sacrament around the chapel. This was followed by the chanting of the Litany of the Saints by the cele¬ brant of the day, Father Harrison. All through the days of the Exposition there was a continuous flow of Catholic young men to the Chapel to visit Our Lord in the Blessed Sacra¬ ment. Those were days of special graces and blessings and you may be cer¬ tain that the students took advantage of this to gain these graces and blessings and were better for it. JEROME BETTE. THE RETREAT THE three days of the Seventy-first Annual Retreat of Assumption Col¬ lege was full of grandeur and splendor—days of quiet repose and thoughts of eternity. The Junior Retreat which consisted of all the Catholic students up to and including the second year was presided over by Father Green in the College chapel. The Senior Retreat which took place in Assumption Church was pre¬ sided over by Father Ryan. Both of the Retreat Masters are Redemptorist Fathers who are very well known in connection with Missions and Retreats. The students are sure to remember these priests as aids in helping them to make a good retreat. Wise words of wisdom and advice were given to the boys and the ques¬ tions that arose in their minds were readily answered by the retreat Masters. Either the boys emerge from this retreat better Catholics or they find themselves worse Catholics when the retreat is over. They can¬ not remain the same. The purpose of the retreat was to turn the boys’ thoughts to God and to their eternal end. Strict silence, which was observed during the retreat, helped them to do this through deep meditation. JEROME BETTE PACK SIOBTY-SKVBN THE MAN CONTEST “A” ANE day last February, Mr. O’Reilly, head of the Mission Society, con- ceived a brilliant idea to raise money for the missions and at the same time accomplish something outstanding in school activities. The Assumption Mission Society was going to sponsor the election of the “A” man. Two students were chosen as representatives from each class, and their names were posted on the Bulletin Board. The voter could cast a ballot for anyone whom he considered to be worthy of the title “A” man, that is, outstanding as a student, an athlete; not necessarily the star but a good sport. Five votes could be obtained for one’s favorite candidate for one cent. There was heated rivalry, not only between the candidates, but also between the classes. As time went on, more and more enthusiasm was shown. A young student, Joseph Smith went soon into the lead, where he remained for several days, but in the second week of the contest, two other students, Jerry Swiacki and Jack Kiborn were the favorites. The former led until the last day. Then they were virtually tied. Two days later, it was announced to the assembled student body by Father M. J. Pickett that Jack Kiborn was the victor. “For years”, said Fr. Pickett, “money has been collected, but not until this year has such spirit been shown. An amount of eighty-one dollars and seventy cents has been gathered.” He went on to say that there had been more votes cast in this election, 40.850 of them, than there had been in the election for Mayor of Windsor. To all the felicitations, the Mission Society adds theirs to the winner Jack Kiborn and to the runner-up, Jerry Swiacki. We all hope that this contest,—inaugurated this year—will be carried on in the years to come at Assumption, and may they be bigger and better each succeeding year. iwc.i: right y-kight ■ PAGE NINETY PA GK NINKT Y-ONK REV. C. ARMSTRONG, C.S.B. ATHLETIC DIRECTOR fPHE return of Spring is a hackneyed event; the recurring clash of con- 1 tending teams is not new at Assumption. But the lithe and nimble lads in purple and white greet each new athletic season with all the ex¬ plosive delight and exultant vigour which attend the onset of Spring. Undismayed by the batterings of defeat, unspoiled by the vaunts of victory, our heroes sally forth with bat and stick, with ball and puck, on gridiron court and floor and rink, as sport succeeds sport and the peren¬ nial heart of youth surges to the song of conflict. Our boys of the past have stamped a blazon on the flying banners of time; the eager spirits of 1941 hold the standard high, looking to the players of coming years to keep the record bright. Assumption honours her sinewed champions whose muscles bend in no ignoble strife, and sees in them the stuff and stature of MEN. In all their games they appeal to the Mother of God; the Mother of men who will not desert them. The Athletic Director. I ' AGt. NINETY-TWO Senior Football Team Reading Reading Down Down D. Goniea M.

Patterson had an admittedly weak line but a fairly strong back field. In spite of their weak line Patterson put up an excellent battle. In the third quarter our Raiders were on our opponents goal line and were about to obtain a touchdown when our star Buck Reaume was taken off the field a s i - ky this time, however, he had done all the necessary damage to Patterson ' s hopes. After Fred v leson kicked a point in the second quarter, Buck Reaume went on a rampage and with our fighting line clearing the way for him, he went to the Patterson goal line. From five yards out Buck Reaume forged thr ough the line and went over for the touchdown and Fred Vieson kicked the extra point. ASSUMPTION—18 OCTOBER 4, 1940 W ALK ERVILLE—6 When Assumption obtained their second consecutive victory the student body was muttering about the unjustice i erc to be a law , was the unspoken but feeling sentiment at Assumption. While walking about the campus one could hear them saying, “we have the championship practically in the bag and nobody to play after we win it. There ain ' t no justice . J This meant with two victories in the W.O.S.S.A. and the injustice was that there were no W.O.S.S.A. senior division, the rest of the season would look like a breeze playdowns to take part in. All of this happened after Assumption defeated Walkerville by a margin of 18_6. Buck Reaume made the first touchdown and Jim Paul Charbonneau then made a beautiful forty-five rouge, making the final score 18—6 in favor of the McAteer came through with the second and the extra point, yard run which resulted in a touchdown. Vieson made a rple Raiders. OCTOBER 11. 1940 ASSUMPTION—7 SANDWICH—3 When the Assumption seniors overpowered Sandwich Collegiate they secured their third consecutive victory. A second quarter single by Odette, who kicked from the Sandwich forty yard line, gave our Raiders a margin that looked as big as a barn. As the game wore on to the final guarter, things began to happen. A Sandwich fumble recovered, brought the ball up to the Purple ten yard line, whence Reid dropped back and kicked a place¬ ment between the posts for three points. It was then that the Assumption powder keg exploded. Scrimmaging the ball to our forty, Reaume took a wide lateral and whipped around the left end for twenty yards; Boismier then passed to Finch for nine yards. With one yard to go and the third down, Reaume burst through the middle of the line, staggered, straightened an .„. down the middle of the line to be stopped on the three yard line. Vieson, climaxing a night of brilliant play, charged over left center to score the onlv touchdown of the contest. Reaume then converted and the ball game was over. ASSUMPTION—0 OCTOBER 18. 1940 KENNEDY—7 To the stunned amazement of two thousand fans at Kennedy Stadium, Kennedy, by means of two field goals routed Fr Armstrong ' s Purple Raiders 7—0. The Clippers did a neater job of outfighting, outplaying and out- thmking the Raiders than anyone else did during the entire season. Thus the leadership of the league was a deadlock with Kennedy and Assumption on top with two victories and one defeat each. Sovran punted from the twenty-five yard line just at the start of the second quarter and another from the twenty yard line m the third. Duck sent a booming sixty-five yard punt from mid-field in the second quarter, a punt that Charbonneau caught behind his own goal line and was downed for a rouge. Twice Assumption missed its chance. Once in the second quarter when a pass play was called from our thirty yard line, and Kennedy intercepted. This led to Kennedy’s first field goal. Then, late in the third quar- ter, the Raiders got going again and went down to the Kennedy eight yard line and tried for the touchdown that would put them back in the fight. But two line plays failed ard when Buck Reaume, who had been crashing the Kennedy line all night for plenty of yardage, was on hand, he wasn ' t called. The chance was gone and Assump¬ tion didn ' t receive another. p NOVEMBER 8. 1940 ASSUMPTION—• VOCATIONAL—14 Assumption ' s ponderous line pave at the middle, bulged at the sides, and finally caved in. Our kicker was hurried and the Purples ' passing attack was wrecked on the reefs of an alert defense. 0”r seniors tried every- thing in the book, but without avail. If the Purples ever did any fumbling, it was then—in the second quarter Before they could get a grip on themselves, the ball game was over. Not that our boys ever gave up, but to the end they stayed in there fighting, beaten and battered until the final whistle Mew. the Tech team hit terrif- ficall.v hard when Assumption put on their fumbling exhibition. They recovered n fumble on the opening kick-off of the third quarter and ran it over for a converted touchdown. They recovered another deep in our terri¬ tory and banged over a field goal from placement. They kicked two sinhles and wound up with another fourth quarter held goal, also the result of a fumble. It was an even game for tin fnst quarter, but changed to strictly a kicking duel for the remainder of the first half. Assumption plugged away with passes, but with no advantageous results. However Charbonneau caught one from Vieson which was good for thirty yards. Charbonneau. the Purples’ chunkv oua-ter was tin stand-out of that game along with Vieson. Reaume was hurt early in the game, a victim of the battering Tech linemen but he was only one of several players who. at various times, were stretched out on the field by vicious tackles PAQE NINETY-FOUR Senior Football Team Reading Down Reading Down J.

THE Assumption Juniors football team came through with a fighting 1 spirit, even though they always had the tough break of coming out on the short end of the scores. Their defeats this year can be attributed to their lack of experience and not to their lack of spirit. Father Young whipped a team into shape that always came through with that good old Assumption spirit. The Juniors’ season began this year with Walkerville. In this game, Eddie Hogan was outstanding in his display of tackling, and Herb Marz with his passes. The score was: Walkerville 9, Assumption 0. The next game was with Assumption’s famed rival. Sandwich. Alf. Reaume stood out in this game, completing five out of seven passes. Schmolt played a bang-up game at tackle. The Sandwich was the Jun¬ iors ' first night game, and the score ended: Sandwich 17, Assumption 0. Kennedy followed next on the schedule, and against them the Juniors scored their first point of the season. Hogan scored, with Reaume con¬ verting the extra points. The final score was: Kennedy 13, Assumption 6. Next along the line was Patterson. In this game we saw a very co¬ operative team. Every player was clicking true to form. However, they just could not stave off the opponents. Score: Patterson 11, Assumption 0. To end up the perfect season, the Juniors played Vocational in a rain¬ swept field. Alt. Reaume, Gerry Kennedy and Bob Greenway made a good showing in both offense and defense. The Juniors just seemed to lack the man-power, and unfortunately they lost. Vocational 12. Assump¬ tion 0.

Coached by Mr. Pendarvis and captained by Van Slambrouk, the Minim team turned out to be one of the best the school has seen in recent years. Much of the credit for their success can l e attributed to such stars as Van Slambrouk, Costello, Hilton and Marchand, plus the co-operation of the rest of the team. T heir first game was with Sandwich. The Sandwich team was rated to be much superior, since the boys were somewhat more experienced. Then, too, the Sandwich eleven boasted two former All-City stars. The Minims, however, even against such odds, held their own in a hotly contested game. The game ended in a scoreless tie. The other game was played against the Detroit Catholic Central reserve team. This team also was rated above the Minims, since they had not lost a game in their whole season until they came to Assumption. The Minims played bang-up ball this game. They went surging up and down the field like a great fighting machine. Their line mowed down the opposing defense, while the hard driving backs lugged the mail.

Jack Patterson for Kennedy Clippers led the individual scorers by notching up sixteen points. For Assumption, Biasatti was high man with twelve points.

But the Rough Riders spurted and acquired twelve points to one by the Purples in the final period. pack one hundred Kennedy scored eleven points for the Assumption winners and Bia¬ satti had ten to his credit. Assumption—16 February 28, 1941 Sandwich—20 By defeating Sandwich 46—20, the Assumption Seniors jumped into sole possession of second place.

Hank Biasatti and Jim Gallagher led the Purples in scoring with thirteen and ten points respectively. Assumption—21 March 7, 1941 Patterson—32 The only team to defeat the senior Panther club all season, the As¬ sumption Purple five was unable to turn the trick away from home. The Panthers led from the start, although they outscored the visitors by only two points during the second half. A fine exhibition of guarding was turned in by Britton of Patterson, who held Assumption’s high scoring Hank Biasatti to four points. Jerry Kennedy turned out to be the best Assumption scoring bet with eleven markers. For the winners, Jack Shuttleworth (with twelve points) and Charlie Wells (with eight tallies), set the pace. Assumption—39 March 13, 1941 Kennedy—34 Needing a win to stay in the running for the High School playoffs, the Clippers started off—when Duck and Martynuck ran up six points be¬ tween them—to give the Clippers an early lead. The home team gradually overcame the handicap, however, and at the half the score was deadlocked at 18—18. In the third frame, Assump¬ tion went to town, and established a 10-point lead. Kennedy and Biasatti accounted for 33 Assumption points; the former with 17 and the latter with 16. Patterson and Duck were the high point men for the Clippers, as they hooped 13 and 10 points respectively. Assumption—30 March 21, 1941 Kennedy—27 Assumption High School Seniors earned the right to meet Patterson Collegiate for the championship of the City High School Basketball loop as the result of a spectacular win over the Kennedy Collegiate five. Assumption had to come from behind as the Clippers held an 18—15 advantage at the half-way mark. Gallagher flic ked in a long shot for Assumption to open the second half. Biasatti passed to Vieson, alone un¬ der the Kennedy basket, to bring the Purples within one point of the Clip¬ pers, then Jerry Kennedy put the Assumption five ahead for the first time in the contest. Duck came through to put the Kennedy lads back into the PACK OSH HUSPRRP ASP OSR lead a minute later as he hooped a long shot. Biasatti hooped one of two tosses to bring the count of 23—22 as the third period ended in favour of the fighting Clippers. Biasatti then made a free throw. With the score knotted at 23 each, Don Mitchell leaped high to throw in a rebound and put Assumption in the lead to stay. With five minutes remaining, Mitchell passed to Kennedy who, al¬ though fouled by Duck, made the basket. Jerry got the free toss. Gallen for Kennedy tossed in a long shot, and a minute later Patterson flipped in another to bring the Clippers within one point of the Purples.

Patterson established a 12—4 lead in the first quarter and 23—10 advantage at the half. The winners—with twenty field goals scored—scored twice as many as the losers, while Assumption—with eight free throws—was twice as effective as its rival in shots from the strip. Wells for Patterson led the scorers with a grand total of twenty-two points; while Biasatti and Kennedy led the Purples with eleven points each.

Although they lost this game, Assumption pro¬ duced the star of the game in Eddie Hogan, who scored 15 points.

Assumption—17 February 28. 1941 Sandwich—16 The starting line-up for the Assumption Juniors was Rorai, Quinn, Kratzmiller, E. Hogan and Bern. Hogan. The first half consisted of the “eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth system. Both teams played excellent basketball, and at the half the score was tied 10-10. The second half was practically a duplicate of the first. The Assumption Juniors played the best game they have ever played. They defeated the Sandwich Juniors 17—16 under the supervision of their coach, Mr. Judge, who, by-the-way, was swamped with congratulations from the student body and the staff: Mr. Judge was so spellbound, he could not speak. Assumption—16 March 10, 1941 Gordon McGregor—11 The Assumption High School Juniors picked on the third place Gordon McGregor five to chalk up its second win of the season, 16—11, at the As¬ sumption gym.

Gino Sovran led the winners with sixteen markers; Eddie Hogan and Ted Rorai gave Assum p¬ tion six points each. page one huniikei) and fouii THE MINIMS A r Assumption it seems to be a custom to picture the Minim Basketball team as a group of castaways from the High School’s Seniors. Some ol them are even thought never to have participated in the game before, but the purpose of this league is to develop players. i T if- la . St state . ment we wil Krant is true, for every man on the team played his best, win or lose. An example of this was shown at the St. leresa s game, when at half time, St. Theresa’s had more than doubled our points, score being 15 to 6. At the end of the game, however, the score showed St. Theresa’s 38, Minims 32. Show us a team with a better fighting spirit than that! Throughout every game, each player displayed at never say die” spirit which aided so much in the defeat of such teams as the Assumption Juniors, the Senior Sub-Minims and St. Ann’s L . O. team; but fate had it so arranged that we finally lost out in a Championship series with Fr. Armstrong’s “Day-Scholar Minims”. .The follows names are those of Minim players: George Harris (the c V 11 ™ man) Dick Burke (next to Harris in points), John Senuck, Ed. Pidgeon, Joe McGunagle and Jim Fitzgibbons. Nice going fellows! You have been a credit to the Minim standard of past years’ Keep up the good work.

The “Purple Six” offered a superior brand of plays that completely baffled the Vocational athletes. The fast skating line of Jenkins, Karstens and Ferguson played smooth hockey, with Karstens getting three goals, Ferguson two goals and one assist ' and Jenkins three assists. The Second line, which consisted of Beuglet, McIntyre and Finch, did a fine job along with the first line, with Beuglet getting a goal and two assists, and McIntyre getting a goal also. Arbour was a standout on defense, with Norm Callery making some beautiful saves in the net for Assumption. Assumption 3 Kennedy-3 In the second encounter of the season, (against Kennedy Clippers), the urple Six were held to a 3—3 tie. This game came as a surprise to the Assumption team, for when the third period came around, Assumption was leading 3—1. It looked like an easy victory for Assumption, but Hobbs, (Kennedy s one-man team), banged home two more goals to tie it up and the score remained 3—3 till the final bell. Adams. Beuglet and Jenkins did the scoring for Assumption. IWC. ' K OXf-: iWNDUKD A.V J SEVEN Assumption—8 ... Vocational— The third (fame of the season was against the Vocational “Rough Riders , who were easily vanquished in the first game, but were much tougher this time Jack Ferguson paced the Purple Six with five points, getting two goals and three assists. Jenkins, Karstens and Beuglet played superb hockey, along with Tubby McIntyre, who played a great game on defense. When the game ended, Assumption was on top by a score of 8 to 6. Assumption—7 .. Kennedy—IS Assumption was out to beat Kennedy, and would not be satisfied with anything but a win. Well, they did—by a score of 7—6, It was a great victory for the Purples, Jim Jenkins skated down the ice, leaving a hot trail behind him, scoring three goals and getting an assist before Kennedy knew what happened. Karstens brought home two goals. Finch and Tubby McIntyre made one apiece. Norm Gallery was phenomenal in the nets for Assumption. Assu m pt ion—2 V oca iiotial—3 Vocational won the contest 3—2. Assumption was an injury-riddled hockey club when stepped on the ice that Monday night against Tech, With Karstens, Arbour and Beuglet all on the injured list, the team fought with all its heart, but to no avail. The first line was broken up, and Jenkins and Ferguson were lost without their fellow-lineman Karstens, It was the only loss suffered by the Purples. Finch and Jenkins tallied for the Purples, with Adams and Gallery playing a great game. Assumption—4 . Kennedy—2 The last scheduled game was against Kennedy. The Purples were out to win this last game of the schedule, and did so by 4—2 score. The first line of Jenkins, Karstens and Ferguson played good hockey, each chalking up a point in the scoring column. The star of the night was Ray Adams, who scored two of the most spectacular goals of the season un¬ assisted, and thereby cinching the game for the Assumption Raiders. As¬ sumption will meet the winner of the Kennedy-Tech game for the City Championship. Assumption Squad for 1940—41, Goal: Norm Gallery, - Defense: McIntyre, Adams.

Bill Karstens was the star of the Purple Six, leading the scorers with three goals and one assist. PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT The pme opened with Karstens getting a goal at the 11:25 mark, on a pass from McIntyre. At 16:30 the score was tied again when Tanner scored for Kennedy. The second period was a hectic affair, with both teams fighting it out from the opening whistle. Karstens again put As¬ sumption in the lead when he clicked on a pass from Ferguson and Jen¬ kins. A see-saw battle raged all through this period, with Kennedy scoring another goal to tie up the score again. Just as the period ended, Jenkins blasted home a shot on a pass from Karstens and Adams. The score at the end of the second period was 3—2 for Assumption. When the third period opened. Father Young ' s Purples knew that this would be the deciding game of the season—to win or lose the Champion¬ ship. The team stepped on the ice, and I don’t believe the spectators have ever seen a more determined lot of hockey players. Grim determination and fight were written all over their faces. They fought right from the drop of the puck, and at the 7:24 mark Ray Adams smashed his way through the Kennedy team to score a goal unassisted. Again at 10:15, Bill Karstens connected a beautiful pass from Jenkins. The score was then 5—2, and it looked like a breeze, but the game was not finished yet. Inspired by the great efforts of Jack Hobbs of Kennedy, the Clippers scored two more goals in the last three minutes of play. However. Assumption held the now spirited Clippers in check till the final bell. Thus Assumption retains the Hockey Championship. We would like to congratulate these members of the “Purple Raiders” on playing the best game of the season: Normie Callery - Jim Jenkins - Frank McIntyre - Bill Beuglet - Harry Finch - Jack Ferguson - Marc Trottier - Bill Karstens - Joe Heffernan Ray Adams - St. Louis - McFadden - Jack Hannan.

JUNIOR HOCKEY jpHE Assumption Juniors, commonly known as the Warriors, have been this year, as in the past, a credit to their name. From the beginning to the end of the hockey season, the team did all that could be expected of it. In their first game the players battled against great odds, but play¬ ed to the best of their ability. Even in the last game, when they had no chance of reaching the city finals, they played as though their lives hung in the balance. The team would have had greater confidence in themselves had they not been so small, and if they had not been so inexperienced. For the most part, the Junior team was composed of players who were making their debut into competitive hockey—a handicap that cannot be overcome in a day. Our Junior men, who had had experience, were used to fill in the Seniors 51 second line. There are several players not pictured above. They are Jack Hannon, Bernard Statham, Jack Statham, Paul Monforton, Jack Morneau, Bob Morrison and David Davies. Many of these boys will be fine players in the future if they are af¬ forded the opportunity to practice, and to learn some of the finer points of hockey, Ont thing is certain: whether they win or lose, they will always show the sportsmanship that any coach would be proud of.

Yes, we had a good team—a team that fought their hardest in practice as well as in meets, and managed to drive out a fourth place in the W. 0 S, S A. meet, 1941 has much better things in store for our team. By chance, the school managed to get a champion swimmer and diver for our swimming coach and instructor. Who? Why, none other than Keith McEwen! The coach feels confident that Bill Brown, Junior swimming champion of 1941, and Larry Miner, diving champion, will help bring our team to victory. Jim Blake, a former winner of W. 0. S. S. A. races, is still with us and all set to run away with a championship. . Dick Burke has reall ' got what it takes to be a champion, that is, spirit, speed and personality; (More power to you, Dick). Ray Decraene, a former member of the team two years ago, is back with us to win a few first place points. Peter Strickland, through regular practice, has become a most pro¬ mising swimmer.

Armstrong, the tennis tournament ” in the Fall was a success. Although the snow came early this year, we did get through the Senior tournament. The competitors of the Seniors were: Robert Doyle, Frank Dwyer, Roger DuCharme, Walter VanSlambrouk, Wildred Nestor, Ray Decraene, Jim O’Driscoll, Jim Madden and Crimmins Shaw. The tournament started off with a match between Shaw and Van- Siambrouk, but owing to an injury Van defaulted the match to Shaw. W. Nestor and Decraene then played two sets which were won by Decraene 6—3, 6—4. During the same week F. Dwyer, alias “London”, defeated O ' Driscoil by th e score of 6-—1, 6—2. Roger DuCharme, well known as “Speed”, was defaulted a match from R. Decraene. Although Jim Madden was the tennis instructor, he, too, insisted on being in the tournament, and having two judges. Jim lost to R. Du¬ Charme 6—1, 6—2. After this last match there were still left in the semi¬ finals R. Doyle, F. Dwyer, C. Shaw and DuCharme. Speed began the finals by defeating Shaw r 6—4, 8—6; Dwyer then played “Speed” and de¬ feated him 8—6, 9—7. This was the best played set of the tournament, with plenty of fight till the last point was scored. Doyle then stepped in and defeated “London” 6—3, 6—3.

All this may give you some idea of the type of fellows we have on our flat. As a whole there was great rivalry in intra-mural sports between us and the Senior Locker Room. But, win or lose, it was alwavs friendly rivalry, because that’s the way our fellows did things. Say, I almost forgot to mention Mr. Eckert, our flat-master Well he was a “square-shooter”.

Paul Wall and William Furlong were day schol¬ ars until Father Thompson made them become boarders. Larry Miner used to be a drum-major, but he is not any more. Otto Peters and his room¬ mate are newcomers to the flat, but have earned a place in sports. Otto is on the first flat basketball team. David Weber is well liked on the flat and although short, he is an able basketball player. Every Saturday night Mr. Becigneul always gets something for the boys from the cafe- teria, and that is a nice ending for the week. Ihese are some of the things the boys do on our flat. The reason why we get along so well is because we have Father U. J. Girard, C.S.B.. who is the main reason why our flat is First of them all. George Fredericks. SENIOR LOCKER ROOM nOWN in the basement of St. Michael’s Hall you will find a swell bunch of fellows always ready to do anything. Their activities range from throw¬ ing the newcomers into the pool, to taking a beating from the flats in any game they choose. There are about sixty boys in the Senior Locker Room.

The squeak of high-pitched voices, arguments, gripes, snatches of songs, a bedlam of cymbalic symphony—all emerge from an obscure, partially underground cavern, known as the Junior Locker Room. It is, we believe, a model of the years, with such men (?) as O’Shea and Rooney to amuse us, and play the clown, when our spirits are low. No greater teams in every sub-minim league can be imagined. Pick out any sub-minim team from the year 1870 to 1940, and we’ll beat its record. True, we have bowed in every sport to the first flat, but our Locker Room ability still remains unchallenged. And we have school-spirit plus! No one can deny that there wasn’t an activity around the school which did not receive our 100% support. We are the rooting section of athletic contests. We supply the pep and the noise to give the school the vital atmosphere of ’’life”. We are everywhere! When growing-pains will have ceased to make our lives miserable, you will still find in us that vitality and pep” which we hold so dear- plus a soft spot in our hearts for our alma mater. M. A. Kennedy. DAY-SCHOLARS FROM nearby points in Canada and the United States, from small towns ■ and big cities, we are the individuals who make the daily trek—and return—to Assumption College every school day of the year. In rain or shine, sleet or snow, sunny weather and bad weather, late and early, big and small, short and tall, we blindly weave along the memorized trail that has but one ending. We are the day-students of Assumption. Frowned upon by the board¬ ers, receiving worried looks from our teachers (for fear that we shall fail to keep up the brilliant standard set by previous generations of our tribe), we take pride in the fact that we are the more numerous of the two factions at Assumption. There are consolations attached to being a day-scholar. We can ex¬ ercise the freedom of the democratic individual to the fullest extent. We have no worries—like the boarders—concerning week-ends and Saturday permissions. We can beat the gong when the mail-man brings the tell-tale slip which summarizes our quarterly progress in studies. We have the freedom of the cities (when parental authority is at its lowest ebb). Contrary to popular opinion, we are more attached to our Alma Mater than the boarders. Even before we entered the class-rooms of Assump¬ tion. we toddled about on its campus—for the College was so near to home. And this, long before the boarder ever heard of Assumption. And so it will be in after years. Long after others, coming in from distant places, have returned to their respective cities, we shall still sit on the front porches of Windsor on a lazy summer evening, with the lofty spires of Assumption forming a part of the horizon within our ken.
