High we have learned to admire and respect Brother Mahoney, S.j., for 'his many admirable virtues and to show our appreciation for his contribution to our advancement, we humbly dedicate the '48 edition of the Renaissance. Wfatching Brother in the Book Store for the last four years has taught us the value of doing well and graciously the task assigned to us. Perhaps the life of a Lay Brother in the Society of jesus is quite beyond the comprehension of the man of the world or the soealled practical man, and to be sure we would never have had a clear appreciation of its value had we not seen it in the flesh, but Bro. Mahoney has made it come to life. Brother Mahoney sold us many books during the past four years but he was the easiest book of all to study and understand. His every word and gesture was patterned after the Master Whom he serves so well and it brightened our lives to hear him talk and be near him. We pray God to spare Brother for many years to come so that others like ourselves might have the benefit of knowing a man so near to the ideal of the Society of Jesus and being a part of the B. C. High that we must now leave, but which will always be a part of ourselves. Thank you Brother Mahoney and God bless you for being so good to us all. l5l INSPIRED BY THE VIGOROUS LEADERSHIP OF HIS EXCELLENCY al'l6!... WE SHALL STRIVE T HIS EXCELLENCY RICHARD CUSHING, D.D.

MAHQNI-iv, Cnurlr nf Imfom' Trark THE EDITOR OF THE RENAISSANCE SPEAKS TO THE SENIOR CLASS QJFO Illililant C0lfl70l1t'lif7ll THOUGH IT IS realized that Humanity stands at the threshold of the most terrible era in its history, We seem to be more concerned with blaming other people for getting Humanity into its present fix, than we are in getting Humanity out of it. We Catholics, in our more negative moments, have an especial weakness for blaming other people for the plight of the world, and in our scramble to do so we invariably forget that perhaps some of the blame could be attributed to ourselves. We have the Truth, yes, but we cannot avoid reprehension if we continue to shirk our individual responsi- bility to spread Truth. It is painfully evident that all Catholics have not lived up to the responsibility of spreading their faith by example and vigorous action. One wonders if the milque- toast, half-hearted Catholic of today does not give as much cause for irritation to the Almighty by his lack of action, as does the red-hot unbeliever by his misdirected excess of it. Fulton Sheen says that inactivity for the faith could result ultimately in loss of faith. Rembrandt too, had the right idea. Realizing the complacency of the elect, he painted the picture of a man pushing Christ back up on His cross, and labeled it self-portrait. In Europe today, Catholic Action--Militant Catholicism-is defeating the forces of anti-God. We too must support a fighting, militant Catholicism if we wish to save our own civilization. This militant Catholicism cannot be attempted or achieved merely by giving lip-service to the Church, or by sitting back confident that the efforts of the Holy Father, the clergy and a few enthusiastic members of the laity will be enough. No, if the Church is to save the world from the impending crisis of all crises, from that confusion worse confounded, then the work of Catholicism must be the work, the consuming flame, the endless passion, the veritable all, of every individual Catholic. That is a startling requirement, but these are startling times, and there is no room for the half-determined. The individual-there is where Catholicism shall find its most complete expression. For Christianity is based on the sacredness of individual personality, and sustained individual enthusiasm for the Church inevitably finds manifest expression in the life of a nation and the morality of the masses. We are young. In our veins flows the brimming blood of the generation that must save the world, or go down with it. There will be no chance for another generation after our own. The task is completely in our hands. If we fail then all is lost. We shall not fail if we take up into our hearts and our hands the weapons which the Church has supplied us and fight as we have never fought before. Pius XII said recently to a Roman crowd of close to a half-million, The time for reflection and planning is past. The time for acdon is now. Then in a plea meant for each and every one of us, he looked out at the sea of strained, Italian faces, and summoning all the impact of his God-given authority into three short words, cried out, ARE YOU READY? From the crowd came back a tumultuous and resounding YES. What shall our answer be? Militant Catholicism-let this be our passionate objective. Let its spirit be the ultimate fruit of all we have learned at B C. ,High. It is to the enkindling of this most essential spirit that the 1948 edition of the Renaissance is devoted. EDWARD R. F. SHEEHAN, '48, Edilor T141 0 We proudly present the Prf'sizfr'nf of the Senior Class Micrmm. ANDREW l'lEI-'FERNAN During the four years that we have been associated with Mike he has always manifested the grandest qualities of school spirit and genuine Catholic leadership. That he was elected President ofthe Senior Class was merely the crowning recognition of those qualities. We feel that our judgement was well directed and time will prove the wisdom of our choice. Mike early won the respect of the Faculty and his classmates by his interest in everything that Would'both contribute to his development and the good of the school. His faithful attendance at Sodality and his interest in all its projects bear witness to his fine character. Mike was a good student during his four years and was a constant winner in sports. As a football player, he was aggressive and fast. In track he excelled on the relay team, in the hurdles and the dash. We wish you continued success in life, Mike, and thank you for being the President of the Class of '48. wi P . OUR FOUR YEARS AT B.C HIGH IN REVIEW FOG! History of Freshman Year Up the timeworn steps through the wide swung portals streamed the largest band of awed and bewildered freshmen in the history of B. C. High. Once inside the corridors they paused and looked about them, just as the hundreds who went be- fore, then bolstering up their courage they approached the blackrobed Jesuits and sought the way to their classes. These Jesuits despatched them to their various classes with a kind and cheerful Word, dispelling whatever little misgivings still lurked in their young hearts. In a few days, all too soon for the teachers, the newness began to wear off these freshmen and gradually they slipped into the traditional custom of B. C. High. Thus did we enter our first memorable High. In one short a hurricane, made friendships, earned attended the first championship team year at Boston College month we experienced and strengthened new our first marks and football games of our as rooters for B. C. High. The next few weeks found us devoted to making the annual retreat under the able guidance of Father James Barry, S.J., re- treat master par excellence, who in- stilled in our hearts the fear of God and guided us in our first retreat confessions. One of the memorable events of our freshman year was the reception held in honor of His Excellency, the newly con- secrated Archbishop, Richard J. Cushing of Boston, a distinguished alumnus of our school. We were indeed inspired by the thought that he once entered B. C. High as a lowly freshman and our prayers will follow him as he humbly does God's work. During this reception the Archbishop was 16 presented with a spiritual bouquet, and a donation towards his newly begun mission drive. In return he bestowed a scholarship to Boston College, to be awarded to some worthy senior graduating from B. C. High. On February 2, 1945 Father Laurence McCarthy, S.J., Father Francis Donahue, S.J., and Father Robert J. Tobin, S.J., pronounced their Hnal vows, thus for the last time oifering their lives to God's service. We attended this ceremony which took place at a Solemn High Mass, and we were much impressed by the solemnity of this occasion, and the sermon given by Father Rector who explained the ritual and pointed out the importance of this occasion in the life of a Jesuit. Well do we contest when others in the lection, The finalists also merited praise. remember our first oratorical Kevin Doherty surpassed all rendition of his stirring se- Telltale Heart. The other Next among our recollections we recall the annual freshman sodality reception which indeed was one of the largest in the history of the schcol. The total number of sodalists received was three hundred. Then suddenly and without warning our fresh- man year was drawing to a close, the final exams were not far away and our able teachers Father Donahue, S.J., Father Ryan, S.J., Father Kelly, S.J., Father Murphy, S.J., Mr. Casey, S.J., Mr. Connolly, S.J., Mr. Hanlon, S.J., and Mr. Kelly, S.J., who has instructed and guided us through the initial months were making one last effort to help us pass these final barriers and gain the distinction of becoming Sophomores at Boston College High School. H1ifIOI' 0 jlfroml' Hur J' After a pleasant year we embarked on .1 new adventure. We had spent our first year at the Annex on Mass. Ave. and we were anxious to imbibe the atmosphere of the original school on James St. For years we had been hearing about B. C. High and finally we were arriving at this famous institution. So. we excitedly took our places in the classrcoms that were marked by the great names of so many who had taken their places in the professional world. After we were settled the individual sec- tions chose as thefr Presidents the following men, Fred O'Sullivan, Tom Burke, Jimmy Galvin, Bob Smith, Fred Connors, Tom Duffy. -Ioe McKenney, Dennis Glynn, john Hynes and Paul Kendrick. When you think it over you can readily see how smart and clever we were to elect such men. Perhaps you have forgotten but the sec- ond year faculty at that time included the following Fathers, Walsh, Ecker, William- son. Moran and Kelley. The Scholastics were, Shine, Molloy, Draper, Farrington and McGrath. These llesuits were aided by the capable teaching of Messrs. Lynch, Fitz- maurice, jordan, Duffy, Daley. Kirchmeyer and McLoud. George Foley made the varsity football team for the second straight year and was generally recognized as a future great. NX'e won't forget the team of that year and their wonderful record. It was the second suc- cessive undefeated season. ,Iack Casey was the spearhead, ably assisted by Bernie Mul- ligan, Walter Murphy and Charlie Brown to mention but a few of the stars. We were runners up for the champion- ship in baseball, losing only to English, and that hurt. Ray Catanneo played shortstop and proved to be a real star. He made the team as a freshman which certainly proves his outstanding talent. We had a pleasant and fruitful year and are indebted to all those who did what they could to help us along the way to spiritual and mental im- provement. Father Barry was the spiritual director and his interest and guidance were certainly appreciated by us all. Wll.l.lAM O,Ni.n. HAPPY MEMORIES 17 l l HISTORY OF JUNIOR YEAR On September 11, 1946, we, the class of 1948, were welcomed back as the mem- bers of the Junior Class of Boston College High. With the summer vacation now be- hind us we looked forward in anticipation of nine months of study and of school ac- tivities. With mutual pleasure that first day we greeted our new teachers, Rev. Fathers F. W. Blatchford, J. P. Curran, F. T. Ennis, J. R. Hughes, L. R. Logue, L. F. McCarthy, J. D. McLaughlin, J. J. Mulcahy, M. J. Murphy, J. J. Ryan, F. S. Scannell, L. P. Vaughn, Mr. R. N. Draper, Mr. P. Hamlin, and Mr. S. Scannel of the Society of Jesus, Mr. Cleary, Mr. J. Farricy, Mr. Kieran, Mr. Kiley, Mr. M. Mcl.oud, and Mr. D. Supple, laymen. XVe were told in our first assembly by our beloved Rector, Father Hewitt, that we were now members of the upper division of the school, and justly proud of this new- found distinction, we knelt together on Thursday, the 12th of September, at the inspirational Mass of the Holy Ghost in the Church of the Immaculate Conception. The week of September the 16th wit- nessed the yearly rebirth of the school societies. Father Paul Barry, S.J., was direc- tor of the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin. Under his supervision before Thanksgiving the B. C. H. sodality made the largest food collection ever for the benefit of the Little Sisters of the Poor and the aged old folks in their charge. The most distinguished and traditional school organization, the cradle of future orators, lawyers and preachers, the Bapst Debating Society was reorganized under the qualified guidance of Father Laurence McCarthy, S.J. The class of '48 that year gave to this organization among others two very outstanding members Mr. Kevin Doherty and Mr. Lawrence Silverson. Debates were arranged with several out-of- town schools, and B. C. H. emerged with a very creditable showing. Dramatics, too, was reorganized with Father Joseph Cur- ran, S.J., as moderator. After a month of introduction to Cicero and Xenophon, we turned our thoughts from books and homework to the most im- portant three days of the school year, the annual retreat. We received advice and counsel then by Father James McGovern, S.J., that will remain with us for many years to come.

Our new coach, Don Weite- kamp, turned out an excellent squad with the material that was available. Several members of the Junior Class won starting positions. B. C. H. also presented to the Boston Conference high-powered track and basketball teams which won far more than their share of victories, Good seasons were also experienced by our hockey and base- ball squads. With much hard work and determination, the sum of 528,000 was raised for the Build- ing Fund. Every one did his share and the result was most gratifying to all concerned. The highlight of the dramatic season was the presentation of Shakespeare's HEN- RY IV under the direction of Father Cur- ran at New England Mutual Hall. The superlative acting and directing ability won the acclaim of critics all over New England. fl 9 Despite sharp and talented competition Mr. Kevin Doherty won the Junior Ora- torical Contest on Wednesday, April 16, 1947. Our parents were entertained on March sorh at their annual night,' when the Dramatic Society presented Achilles, the story of Homer's Illiad. On the evening of April 25th and 26th the B. C. H. Athletic Association sponsored its second annual minstrel show which was a great success. Together with this was a concert given by the B. C. H. Band under the direction of Mr. Mahler and Father Tobin, SJ., Moderator of Athletics. Our Junior Year drew to a close with Undergraduate Night on june 13, 1947. lt was a gainful year for all of us. Thanks to the grace of God and the patience and teaching of our instructors that we all ad- vanced spiritually and mentally. THE HISTCDRY CF FGURTH YEAR of September in the and forty-seven we haloed seniors and lap of our journey. We were the upperclassmen and as such we were resolved to make this a glorious year in the history of Boston College High. We were greeted by our senior teachers, Fathers Foley, Krim, Blatchford, McCarthy, Berigan, Gately, Murphy, Shea, Williamson, Murray, Blais and Sheridan. We opened our scholastic year with the Mass of the Holy Ghost at the Church of the Immaculate Conception. Father Hewitt of the Society of jesus, our beloved rector, celebrated the Mass and welcomed back the students for the new year. On Qctober sixteenth we began the most important week of our senior year, Retreat Week. The prefect was Reverend Arthur McCarthy, the vice-rector of our high school, and his sermons were aimed at aiding us in leaving Boston College High with firm principles of Catholic manhood estab- lished in our minds, hearts and souls. The Retreat was brought to a worthy close by receiving students. On the twelfth day year nineteen-hundred received the title of embarked on the last our attendance at Mass and the of Holy Communion by all the successful auspicious schoolboy and gold The football team staged a season as Mal McCloud made an debut into the coaching ranks of football guiding the maroon through their toughest season in many a yeir. The eaglets were sparked by the play of Captain Foley and seniors Heffernan, McKenney, Patten, Fallon, and Norton. Barney Shine, hampered by an appendec- tomy at the beginning of the season, did not play. The season was a success inasfar as the squad won all of their objective games. Our next important venture in fourth year was the play, Career Angel, which was presented by the Dramatic Society under the direction of Reverend Father Mulchay at the auditorium of the Public Latin School on the evenings of December eleventh and twelfth. Notable for their parts in this performance were seniors: John Mahoney, Kevin Doherty, Louis Gaglini, and Lawrence Silverson. The show was well received by all, and the cast was invited up to Holy Cross College in XVorcester to render a command performance. 20 SHRINE IN YARD In November we held election for the class president of senior year and Mike Hef- fernan was sclected to that coveted position but only after some very stiff competition frtm Kevin Doherty. School was adjourned on the nineteenth of December for the Christmas holidays, and we left the school on Harrison Avenue with joyous hopes for a happy vacation and apprehensive thoughts of the coming mid- years. The Christmas Dance was held on jan- uary second in the New England Mutual Hall Building. It was the first of the dances which were sponsored by the Renaissance and although the weather was poor the dance was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended. Neither the snow nor cold could hold a B. C. High boy back on his first day of school of the snowiest of snowy years, 1948. We trudged back to repetitions and mid- years, and the midnight oil burnt long and bright those ensuing days, as We hurriedly prepared for the inevitable. With mingled sighs and groans, the mid-year exams slipped past for the last time. l On Tuesday, January 27, the final lap began, the homestretch lay before us and the beacon of graduation shining nearer and brighter now, caused all to study more industriously. On February 2nd, Fathers Blais, Mc- Carthy, and McGrady knelt at the altar of God and professed their final vows, an awe inspiring ceremony to the whole stu- dent body. Then with no sadness we had our winter recess during the week of Feb- ruary 2lst. At this point it seems only fitting to give merit where merit is due, to our sports teams: to the football team for iis steady and hard playg to the track team for its consistently fine showing in quad and ma- jcr meets, to the hockey team for its first division standing. Special praise is due to George Foley and Dick Doyle chosen for the Boston All-Star team, to George Sul- livan, Roger Morton, and Ed McDonald who gained positions on the Bay State All- Star teams. To further spread the glories of the ma- roon and gold, the basketball team won the City of Boston title and gained a bid to the Tech Tourney in which they gave a glorious showing losing only in the final game to Belmont, Spring moves in, more marks are creep- ing up on us, and beyond these we see more end-of-the-year cramming mingled with such classic events as the Senior Oratorical Contest on the 22nd of March, and the Bapst Prize Debate on the 30th of April. Easter and the spring recess in the week of April 19th seem to be our remaining holidaysg and of course the Senior Prom, almost upon us, will be the social high spot of our final year. Again sports are in our eyes: the hopes are high that the baseball team will be suc- cessful in retaining the Boston Conference title and again draw a tournament bid. Now at last we are coming to graduation. Yes, final exams, and then June 10th at the Opera House, a night long to be re- membered. Written deep in our hearts ever to be remembered will be the ascending of the famous steps and the reception of our diplomas from His Excellency, the Arch- bishop, our congratulations and our just and well earned reward. We now go into the world, some to serve God, some to serve man, enhanced by a Jesuit education. XVe have inherited a tradition, a heritage of great Catholic men. We have a memory of wonderful days at James Street, and our hearts are filled with gratitude to our par- ents and our teachers for all they have given us. As We go forth into the world we have on our lips the phrase which is symbolic of B. C. High, Ad majorem Dei gloriamf' TJONALD KI.

MEMORIES OF 4A At the beginning of last September 3-J and 3-H united under the banner of 4A. We were placed under the able tutelage of Father Henry Gately, SJ., in the Classics, Father Henry Williamson, SJ., in Chem- istry, Mr. Green, S. J., in Trig., and Mr. Kieran in French. As class officers we elected George Foley, President, and Frederick Connors Vice- President and Treasurer. In the school extra-curricular depart- ments 4A was well represented. In football we had big George Foley and Fred Connors, in basketball we had Francis Burgholzer and J. Paul Hickey, and in track we had two outstanding performers in George Foley and Myles McSweeney. Getting away from athletics we found John Mahoney shin- ing in Dramatics. John was also President of the Club, and Maestro james Lawton sparkled in the band. With such an out- standing group in extra-curricular activities along with the outstanding scholars: Philip Lydon, John Hines, and John J. Mahoney, you can easily see why 4A was always in the limelight. So as we close the doors of our high school years and place our names on the ever-growing list of alumni, we say fare- well to B. C. High. Wherever we go, we will always remember the zeal of our hard- working teachers and all the pleasant mem- ories of Senior Year. FREDERICK J.

Father Murray, SJ., ac- quainted-us with the mysteries of Physics while Father McDermott, S.-I., Mr. Vogel and Mr. Green, SJ. contributed to our mathematical advance in the subjects of Math., Solid Geometry, and Trigonometry respectively.

FORTUNES OF 4C We, the class of 4C, find it diflicult to believe that although when the leaves of yesterday were tinting the ground in myr- iad hues, we were lowly Freshmen, today numbered among the esteemed of the Class of 1948! We pray finds us members that the Divine Providence, Who bestowed upon us so cherished a 'beneficience and distinction, continues to favor us as the sands of time flow on and in turn, let us not be lacking in gratitude. It is our fond- est hope, that by our manliness, piety, and scholastic achievement the class that wel- comed us into their ranks will find us wholly deserving and worthy of the proud adornment of their Round Table. Under 88 the expert guidance of our teachers Father john Murphy, SJ., Father Williamson, SJ., Mr. Farricy and Mr. Vogel we will un- doubtedly succeed. After a hectic battle john B. Hynes, jr., was elected presidentg john Forry, Vice- President, James A. Willwerth, Treasurer and Frank Falvey, Secretary. Kevin F. Doherty although not elected sectional of- ficer showed up nobly in the senior class elections before going down to a heart breaking three vote defeat. The 4C athletes are John Forry, in football, Red Falvey, and Frank The Rocket Gemellaro, in hockey. JAMES A.

As a result of this we have Don- ald Leary as our dynamic president, Bill Cleary as his running mate, William Leo- nard as our empty handed treasurer and Louis Gaglini as secretary. This completed we made steady progress through the year under our teachers three. Father Berigan we sincerely thank for making a class everything it should be, as he has supplied the doctrinal, checked up on the comprehendo and all the while kept up the spiritum.', To Father Sheridan, we would like to present tickets for a trip to Gay Paris, we would like to, but since we can't, we offer our sincere thanks.

We were gifted with five lettermen in football, consisting of Dick Driscoll, Ed Donovan, Bob Kincade, Roger Morton, and Larry Sullivan. The hockey representation included Bob Stevens, Vin McCarthy, Roger Morton, and Red,' Falvey a mid-season transfer to 4-E. Track awards were won by Bill Bond, Francis Donahue, and Ed Donovan. 90 The scholastics standards were upheld as they have been for four years, by James Galvin. Vin McCarthy, President of the Bapst Debating Society, won first prize in the senior oratorical contest by means of a most outstanding oration. The class election in November resulted with Roger Morton elected as President and Vin McCarthy as Vice-President. We wish to express our sincere thanks to all the teachers and faculty who have devoted their time to us and so ably guided us during our four years and we sincerely hope that their efforts were not in vain.

HISTRIONICS OF 4F The class of Fourth Year F seemed to be an orphan in the school. Actually our home- room teacher was Father Joseph Murray, Sal., but oddly enough, he was the only teacher who didn't hold class in the home- room. We trekked up to the Physics' Room to have the theories of Luther, Calvin, and Darwin refuted in the field of Religion, and the theories of Von Guericke, Pascal, and Newton upheld in the Held of Physics. In our homeroom proper Father John Murphy, SJ., piloted our course through the black waters of the Aeneidg Mr. Fran- cis Vogel supervised the writing of reams of translations from the Hessian Language, Mr. john Farricy divulged the secrets of the Trig tables, and Father Laurence McCarthy, made the story, A TALE OF TWO CITIES and the play UMACBETI-I seem almost as if they should have been read. The Of'hcers of 4-Fl' were Bob Gaughan, 9 President, Pete Keohan, Vice-President, and Walt McDonough, Secretary. We found ourselves capable of forming a pretty good band. We had Al Walsh on the sax, Dick Gaulin on trombone, two trumpeters in Tim Delaney and Pete Keo- hang also a duo of pianists, Willie Nash and Pete Zacharias, and, of course, we all re- member the vocal refrains of the boys in the back of the room. In sports our claim to fame was in Tim Sheehan for football, and Phil Maloney, who swung a mean racket and starred on the tennis team. Volumes could be written on antics of class clowns, the witticisms of teachers and scholars, the respect of the boys for the faculty, the reverence during religious functions, and all the incidents that made memorable this year, our Senior Year at B. C. High. MEMBERS OF FOURTH YEAR G First row, left to right: Tracy, Wells, O'Mella. Natoli, Heffernan, Father Murphy, S.-I., Whelan, Noonan Clune, Grimley, F. Roche.

PROUD RECORD OF 4G The industrious Class of 4G was under the excellent tutelage of Father Francis Murphy, SJ., for Latin, English, French, and Religion, Father Blais, SJ., carried us through the intricacies of Physics, and Mr. Greene, SJ., and Father McDermott, S.J., for Mathematics. It was on the capable shoulders of these very worthy instructors that the task of moulding the Class of 4G rested. Our Class President was Mike Heffernan who was later elected President of the Senior Class. We are proud of the athletic achievement of the members of our class: Jim Cummings, Mike Heffernan, and Joe McKenney in football, Andy Gill, Bob Lavin, and George Pierce fCapt.j, in basketball, Mike Heffer- nan, Paul Marley fCapt.j, and Art Roche 92 in Track, Jim Cummings and joe Mc- Kenney in baseball, and Bob Stockman in hockey. Our school band was graced with the talents of Fran McCarthy, the Camera Club with Tom Tracy, the Radio Club with Chris Grimley and Frank Roche, and the Science Club with John Natoli, Bob Lavin, and Ken Wells. In leaving the cherished portals of B. C. High we wish to express our gratitude to Very Reverend Father Rector, to Father Keane, our kindly principal, to Father Mur- phy and our auxiliary teachers, who made our Senior Year most pleasant-and to every one through whose excellent example and fine guidance we are graduating as a class of good Catholic Americans.

NOTES ON 4H September found 4H assembled in an old but cheery room on the second corridor of dear old B. C. H. Our class members were collected from almost every section in third year. At the start of our last year in high school, our class was placed under the direc- tion of Father james Foley, S.J., in the Classics, Mr. Francis Vogel in the realm of both German and Math, while some of our more scientific students were taught Physics by Father Blais, S.J. We are indeed indebted to each of them for their loyal guidance and patience. Besides having probably more honor men than any other Senior Class Section, 4I-I can also boast that it is well represented in the Extra-curricular Department. Among the scholars there shone the stellar names of Silverson, Kellaher, Sayers and John Sulli- van. The latter of these not only excelled in his studies, but also proved most capable as our Class President. In turning to the field of sports, 4I-I made l93l a very noteworthy contribution. In hockey it was Captain George Sullivan, in basket- ball and baseball the McElroy Twins, Thomas and John, Dick Fallon and John Boyle turned in creditable contributions on the football field. Pete Walsh represented us in the minstrel show while Paul O'Brien and Charlie Smith played in the band. In the Literary Depart- ment we were represented by Fallon, Smith, O'Leary, O'Connor, Cawley, and William Sullivan on the RENAISSANCE Staff while Jim Donovan did our class jottings for the Botolphian. All in all our Senior Year has been most valuable to us. Its pleasant memories, and patient teachers and spirit will forever be in our hearts as will all the members of our class with their mutual friendliness and companionship-all will always be close to our hearts. May each class have such a happy memory. JAM1ss CAWLIQY MEMBERS OF FOURTH YEAR j First row, left to right: NI. J. Murphy, Al. L.

The Senior year for the earn- est pupils of 41 was directed by Father Fredrick Blatchford, SJ., in Religion and the Classics. He in turn was ably assisted by Mon Pere Sheridan in French and Mr. Farricy in Math. The Class of 4j was well represented in the activities of the school, among these the Botolphian and the Year Book. John Reagan, Charlie Carroll and Ed Sheehan were all regular contributors to the Botolphian and many others of the class contributed towards making the Year Book a success. In sports we were well represented, especially in track, due largely to the enthu- siastic guidance of our own Father Blatch- ford. Dick The Flash Madigan, Ed Mc- Donald, Dave Hines, Charlie Carroll and Joe Patten were all trackmcn. In Football joe Patten held right guard and Charlie Carroll, too, contributed to the gymnastics of the gridiron. Also, Jack Mulvehill man- aged basketball. The baseball turnout for 41 was good and the Final cut by the coach still revealed three 4j men holding down positions. These men were J. Edward Mc- Donald, Ken McDonald and john Mc- Laughlin. In matters spiritual, such as Sodality, Paul Flynn acted as class prefect. Holding Class elections in October, Charles Carroll held the presidcnt's chair, Ignatius LaBe1la, Vice-President, Ed Sweeney was secretary, and jack Mulvehill topped for Treasurer. It is our opinion that even when we are many years graduated we shall be able to look back to our Senior at B. C. High and find the remembrance of our teachers still clear in our minds. Father Blatchford has supplied us with moments of high humor that will never fade in the minds of those who took such delight in them. The Class on the whole had a wonderful hobby of collecting honor cards. All in all, our Senior year has been both interesting and profitable. Lest we forget good old 213 North Tower.

High found thirty-eight well- dressed boys grouped outside a classroom labelled 4K.', At nine o'clock we met with pleasant approval Reverend Laurence Mc- Carthy, SJ., who was, despite many ob- stacles, to lead us through the year. In Trig- onometry we were placed in the capable hands of Mr. Green, SJ. French was no surprise, and we gladly welcomed back Mr. Kieran. Mr. Broderick handled Math Re- view, and for Physics and Chemistry we were instructed by Father Blais and Father Williamson respectively. Amidst shouts of approval, Ray Cattaneo was installed as Class President for the sec- ond consecutive year. Dave Walsh ran a close second and was elected Vice-President. We were honored by having Dick Cunning- ham selected as Senior Prefect of Sodality. In the Athletics' Field we were repre- sented by Ray Cattaneo, who was unani- 9 mously chosen as Captain of the Baseball Team, Bob Macomber and Tom Londergan also in Baseball, Barney The Minstrel Man Shine in Footballg Gerry Humphrey and Bob Macomber in Basketball, John Cunning- ham ably carried our honors in Track. As we head down the last stretch of our happy high school year, we would like to take the opportunity to express our sincere thanks to all who in any way helped us along, especially to Reverend Father Rector, and Father Keane, our Principal, to Father Laurence McCarthy who has given us the Hnal push towards success, and to all our other teachers who so willingly and gen- erously taught and guided us through our most important years. In leaving B. C. High we take with us many treasured memories, but most im- portant of all, we take with us a Christian Philosophy of Life, without which we could not hope to lead a successful life. SENIOR SODALITY OFFICERS Seated, left to right: Coakley, Tobin, Cunningham, Father Ryan, SJ-. Keohan, Fallon, Kendrick. Standing, left to right: Doherty, Mahoney, -Ioycc, Walsli, Flynn. The Sodality of the Blessed Mother- Guiding Spirit of B. C. High Boys The Sodality, by far the most important of all activities in the school, was intro- duced to the class of '48 in September 1944. As Freshmen we received a great joy at- tending the meetings and talking to the Blessed Virgin Mary in song and prayer. Our spiritual director was Father David Leo and Jack Casey, B. C. High's famous football hero, was prefect. The social ac- tivities started with a great roller-skating party at the Rollerway on November 1. This social event proved a great success with a record crowd of 1200. Due to a throat illness of Father Leo, the sodality was taken over by Father Paul Barry, long known for his sincere and eloquent speaking, On December S, 6, and 7 the Triduum for Purity, in preparation for the feast of the Immaculate Conception, I96 was given by Father Barry. God and His Most Pure Mother must have been proud of Their B. C. High Sons, who, 500 odd, jammed the very aisles of the chapel from the altar out into the corridor. The students of B. C. High raised 35420 for Pope Pius XII to help him continue his great work in the war torn countries of Europe. Father Leo returned in time to direct the Novena of Grace in honor of St. Fran- cis Xavier. Prayers were said daily in the classrooms by the entire student body. We think that this is one reason why B. C. High is where she is todayg because of the wonderful faith of the Catholic Boys which make up the very soul of B. C. High. In May 250 boys were received into the sodality concluding a very successful fresh- men year in the history of the sodality. Our sophomore year started with many plans for the future. Our former director, Father Leo had been transferred and Father Barry became our moderator. Jack Halloran was appointed prefect. Father Barry con- ducted many successful mission drives dur- ing the year and he also ran a very success- ful raffle for the B. C. High Building Fund which netted over 530,000 for our new school. The collection by the students of food for the Little Sisters of the Poor was tremendous. The annual novena of Grace was conducted in the respective classrooms in March and on May 3, 210 student sodalists were received into Mary's Sodality. This ceremony closed the sodality for our Sophomore year. Returning for our junior year we found things pretty much the same. To our joy we found Father Barry was still our moder- ator and john Concannon had been appointed prefect. As every year the B. C. High Sodalists collected food for the Little Sisters of the Poor. This year's collection was the best ever. As it thrilled each student to see the display of food so it must have pleased God to know how generous the B. C. High Sodality was. Again the Sodality took a very active part in the B. C. High Building Fund. Over 528,000 was collected due to the wonderful part played by the sodalists, stu- dents, teachers, friends and to the untiring efforts of Father Barry. SODALITY COUNCIL In February, Father Barry left, due to sickness, for a long due rest. In his place we had Father john Hughes, now in japan. When Father Barry returned, the annual reception of Sodalists took place and our junior year ended. Vacation passed quickly, as it usually does and our Senior Year was inaugurated with our first sodality meeting. Father Barry had gone to Holy Cross but ably re- placing him was Father Lawrence Ryan, a great sodality worker. Dick Cunningham was appointed our prefect. He received the honor of being voted the Sodalist of the Month by the Queens Work, the national Sodality magazine. Father Ryan was a well loved and hard working moderator. His untiring efforts in helping the students was a great asset to the sodality. Like his predecessors he con- ducted the drive for food for the Little Sisters of the Poor. Again this drive showed the generosity of the B. C. High students and friends. In May for the last time the Class of '48 saw the reception of new sodalists who will continue on the work where we left off. We shall always love and deeply cherish the sodality. Our grateful thanks to our Stu- dent Counsellors, Fathers Leo, Barry, Hughes and Ryan. Is it any wonder that the sodality is the most popular activity at B. C. High? For who is more popular there than the Mother of God?

Certainly without the financial assistance of the parents and advertisers the literary staff would have been limited in the scope of the entire pro- duction. So to all who contributed in any way to the promotion of this yearis pub- lication we render our heartfelt thanks. This year's moderator of the Renaissance, Father Laurence McCarthy, SJ., received an encouraging response to his call for members for the literary and busines staffs. Within a few weeks assignments for the individual articles were given and we were well on our way. The members of the business staff applied themselves to the task of getting ads and it was not long before advertisers started to respond generously to our call. In March, Father McCarthy appointed Edward R. Sheehan the Editor-in-Chief.

Together, these two worked hand in hand to make this issue of the Renaissance live up to the standard paced by the previous editions. On the shoulders of Father Mc- Carthy fell the involved task of transacting contracts and business with the photog- raphers, printer and engraver. Ed Sheehan wrote the editorial on the theme of our book, and together they planned the dedi- cation and the general outlay of the whole publication. Also, without the wholehearted cooperation and willingness of the entire staff, this titanic task would have been rendered impossible. The advice and work of Dick Fallon, George Burke, Kevin Doherty, Simon Smith, Joe Sullivan and many others proved invaluable in com- piling the literary and layout project. On behalf of the Business Staff, the tireless work of Frank Green, the Business Editor, Frank Roche and many others will not be forgotten. The authors of the various articles are to be commended for their splendid work also. In short, the success of this year's edition can be attributed to energetic team-work. What is the primary objective of a Year Book? Is it not to convey the spirit of a school to the graduating class? It's not an easy task to consolidate the spirit of B. C. High within the covers of a book. If we have succeeded in doing so, and we sin- cerely hope we have, then it is because the spirit of B. C. High is something real, alive, almost tangible, and can be appreciated and put into writing by the modest efforts of a representative Year Book Staff. EDWARD R. F. SHEEHAN, Editor 1991 . , 4 sf...

THE BOTOLPHIAN- VOICE OF TOMORROW'S AUTHORS A primary aim and inspiration of the Radio Studiorum has always been to foster the student writers of today as the Catholic authors of t0m0rr0W. The crying words of Pope Pius X ring true in a modern world: In vain do you build churches and schools if at the same time you do not build up a good Catholic literature. On the high school scale for the past thirty three years the Botolphian has answered that appeal as the eloquent voice of the Boston College High student body. As proof of its intrinsic merit, this em- bodiment of Jesuit-trained literary talent has won national recognition for more than a decade. The awards of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association pay tribute to the diligence of the student staff and the guidance of the Moderators who, together, have produced a publication that has cap- tured the hearts of the student body, fac- ulty and alumni of B. C. High. A sketchy review of our Botolphian careers reveals a gradual but culminating development in our literary powers. The autumn issue of 1944 was a Welcome sur- prise to the Freshman Class. Mr. Leonard McCarthy, SJ., was the Moderator while Orville Purdy and Ronald Weyand served as Editor-in-Chief and Editor respectively. In that fall issue James Donavan distin- guished himself with the first freshman con- tribution, succeeded in the spring edition with the work of Harold McAleer. In our Sophmore year the Class of 1948 began to manifest more of its latent talent under the same editors and a new Moder- ator, Father Cyril Delaney, SJ. The short stories of Donald Leary in the Autumn and Spring editions as well as the book re- views of John Bailey and the essays of Robert Stockman were happy harbingers of the literary spring that was soon to blossom. N001 lt was in our junior year that the treas- u1'e chest of talent in the Class of '48 opened wide to enrich the pages of the Botolphian. As Moderator Mr. Daniel Shine, Sal., ap- pointed Leo Hines as Editor. Throughout the year the essays of Edward Sheehan, Charles Carroll, Bernard Malone, Daniel Lewis and John Lucey: the poetry of Kevin Doherty, David Gaffney, Thomas Loughran and john Reagang the short stories of Donald Leary and the Liberator humor of George Burke upheld the highest spirit and tradi- tion of past prize-winning editions. ln our year of senior achievement we witnessed a new Moderator Father Francis Grirhn, SJ., and his assistant Mr. Ambrose Mahoney, S.j., appoint veterans Doherty and Leary as Editor-in-Chief and Editor. Dedicated to the centenary of the Jesuits here in Boston, our autumn issue welcomed the talent of Richard Cunningham, David Cusick and Richard McGrath. As editors of the art staff Robert McGonigle and John Davey daubed their colors on cover and story, while the sports department boasted the clipped reviews of -lohn McElroy and john Mulvehill. ln our Easter Issue Ed Shee- han presented an analytic an-d memorable essay on the poetic genius of Francis Thomp- son, as Don Leary climaxed a long list of contributions with a haunting tale from a hobo jungle. As a crowning poem Kevin Doherty featured his reflections on Easter Saturday in the commencement issue that also displayed the poetry of Louis Gag- lini. The highlight of our senior year was the citation of nation-wide distinction that was once more bestowed upon the Botolphian at the annual Columbia Convention. We of the Class of '48 are thankful for these years of opportunity with the Botol- phian and for the guidance and inspiration of our Moderators. In ardent response to the Papal plea we humbly hope to enrich our Catholic literary heritage in the years to come. THIE Emroits Somif, DM' Tin-.Y'i.i, BIZ READING OUR Books l 101 1 work was We are very happy, with respect to our different moderators, and to the victories of our classmates, both on the platform and off, to unveil this summary of our past four years in the Bapst Debating Society. As freshmen we started our first year in the art of debating. During the course of this year we were under the excellent tute- lage of Mr. Charles Farrington, SJ. He taught us how to overcome our timidity towards speechmaking. During the year we held many interesting debates among our- selves, and after a highly successful year our activity was concluded with the Mc- Elroy Prize Debate. The subject was the familiar topic of Compulsory Military Training. None of our class took part in this debate. THE BAPST DEBATING SOCIETY halls of B. C. High, we again came under the tutelage of Mr. Farrington, SJ. Again we argued many different topics. This year we learned more of the finer points of de- bating. By this time we had risen to great heights in the ars loquendif' Our year's concluded with the McElroy Prize Debate. The subject for discussion was the same as in first year. The affirmative was upheld by William Hughes, Robert Curry and George Reiss. The negative side was composed by Philip Sullivan, Peter Noonan and Vincent McCarthy. Even though the affirmative captured the decision, the medal went to a member of the negative, Vincent McCarthy. Four of our class par- ticipated in this debate. MEMBIQRS OF THE BAPST DEBATING SOCIETY First row, left to right: Tobin, Donahue, O'Neil, Sullivan, Fr. John Murphy, S.-I., Gaglini. McCarthy, Heffernan, Shine. Second row: Ficociello, Doherty, Croke, Mahaney, McCauley, Hogan, Carroll, Gallsher, Kcllaher. Third row: Morton, Patton, Meagher, McAnulty, McGonnigle, McDonald, V'helan Lewis, Butler. 51021 When we became members of the Junior Class, we were welcomed into the Bapst. This year our moderator was Father Lau- rence McCarthy, S.J. The elected officers were all of the class of '47. During the course of this year we engaged in many outside debates. One of our group, Kevin Doherty, took part in a debate on the ques- tion of the Socialized Medicine and even though they lost the decision to the negative team of Cheverus High of Maine, three others of our society balanced this defeat with a victory against the affirmative team representing Fairfield Prep on the same question. The year's work was concluded with the Bapst Prize Debate in which one 7-Tift' of our group took part. The subject was the Loan to Greece and the decision was captured by the affirmative. As our last year came upon us we found our society now headed by Father John J. Murphy, S.J., a newcomer to B. C. High. Again this year we were taught more on the art of debating and we held many heated discussions on various issues of the day. After the elections we found Mr. Vincent McCarthy, President, Mr. Louis Gaglini, Vice-President, Mr. Philip Sullivan, Secretary, and Mr. Shine, Treasurer, all of the class of '48. T. PHILIP SULLIVAN 'fir THE DRAMATIC SOCIETY uThe Play's the Thing 1944 -1945 Our first appearance on the B. C. High stage was on November 30, 1944. On this occasion we had the great privilege to work before Archbishop Richard J. Cushing. What other man in Boston could give us more inspiration for our first performance? The dramatic opus Ut Cognoscent Te, writ- ten and directed by Father Mortimer J. Murphy, S.J., was a tremendous success. It provided a fine leading role for John Mahoney and an excellent supporting part for George Burke. Both boys worked hard to make their Father Malone and Eze- chiel become living individuals for the audience. Here may we mention that no other finer B. C. High alumnus can be our inspiration as far as our public speaking efforts are concerned than Archbishop Cushing. Richard Cunningham joined the society in time to give an unforgettable perform- ance as Private Bigby in the closing production of our Freshman Year on Under- graduate Night, June 15, 1945. The Un- expected, a one-acter, also under the direction of Father Murphy, S.J., whom, by this time, all of us had grown to ad- mire as our local genius, saw John Mahoney and George Burke return to the footlights, this time as Gerald Gordon and Samuel Simpson, respectively. Iiosj 1945 - 1946 As Sophomores on November 9, 1945, we undertook the presentation of two one- act plays for our parents. After Philip Sul- livan welcomed the audience with his sin- cere and friendly tunes, Bernard Malone took the spotlight for his piano solo. Then came Preliminary, a glimpse behind the scenes of a theater. The exceptional per- formances of George Burke and Matt But- ler resulted in hilarious contagious laughter. Lawrence Silverson, a new-comer to our ranks, joined in the fun also. When the curtain descended and Alfred Walsh had completed his saxophone number, John Ma- honey starred as Rufus Sharp in the second play of the evening entitled, The Seventh Doctor. This work, a comedy in one act, featured Francis O'Leary, Robert Repetto, Daniel McElaney and Timothy Delaney. Paul Lynch, another new performer, ap- peared as Dr. John Rubb and our old friend, Dick Cunningham, was wonderful as Dr. Samuel Vetlcr. This ended our major entertainment that year. Father Murphy, SJ., and Mr. Draper, SJ., helped us immensely by coaching our plays. 1946 - 1947 Under the superb direction of Father joseph P. Curran, SJ., the Loyola Players of Boston College High School presented Shakespeare's comedy Henry IV at New England Mutual Hall on December 15, 17, and 22, 1946. This production merited high praise for all concerned. Our star, Arthur Gobron, was outstanding as Prince Hal. Kevin Doherty still has audiences discussing his top-notch appearance as Vernon, John Mahoney proved to be a hateful villain in his role as Worcester. Louis Gaglini,s Douglas is a character we'll always re- member. Larry Silverson did another fine job in his dual role of Westmoreland and the narrator. Matt Butler with his Peto l 104 characterization lived up to his established reputation. The fat comedy part of Justice Shallow was handled commendably by George Burke. Dick Cunningham's Moul- dy was excellent as was John O'Neil's Sheriff. Robert Stephens as Sir Walter Blunt and Paul Hickey as John were equally fine. Parents' Night on March 28, 1947, saw our presentation of Achilles, a play writ- ten by Father Krim, SJ., and directed once again by Father Murphy, SJ. In this drama John Mahoney ascended the throne on right stage to play Homer, the blind poet. Louis Gaglini donned a gray wig -o become Priam. john Keohan made a 1 .e and un- forgettable Paris. Fierce Ajax was real- istically portrayed by Dan McElaney. Thomas Donahue did Diomede and our own George Burke turned prophet as Cal- chas. Lastly, Bernard Malone appeared as Aeneas. On the same program William Ball provided outstanding entertainment with his musical keyboard and Frank Whelan delighted the audience with a recitation. William O'Neil played the violin and Dick Cunningham put on his own act as a magi- cian. A vocal solo was given by Peter Walsh. These talents blended together made an en- joyable evening of superior entertainment. Thus came to a close our third-year pro- grams. What a wealth of experience and knowledge we had accumulated! 1947 - 1948 A surprise which proved to be extremely pleasant awaited us in September of our Senior Year. Father John J. Mulchay, SJ., was the new moderator of the Dramatic Society. At the first meeting of the new year Father Mulchay, SJ., introduced him- self fthough to most of us his Geometry Classes were always to be remembered Classicsj and after we had become ac- quainted with the new assistant moderator, Mr. McGovern, SJ., John Mahoney was elected president of the society. 1 lmmediately plans were formulated for our annual school play. This time it was a modern three-act comedy called Career Angel, the story of an angel who has im- portant dealings with a group of religious brothers who run a boys' orphanage. After long hours of rehearsals and preparation the lights dimmed in the Public Latin School Auditorium on December ll and 12, 1947, -and we were on! The play was gratifying to every one concerned. The leading roles were brilliantly handled by john Mahoney as the understanding Superior of the insti- tution, B other Gregoryf' Lawrence Sil- verson as ie ever witty, yet surprisingly sensible Angel Guardianf' Louis Gaglini as the old, nature-loving founder of the orphanage, Brother Seraphimf' and Kevin Doherty as the stern, careful guard of the orpl1anage's meager funds, Brother Fidelisf' john Doherty's and Edward Scanlon's assist- ance back stage was much needed and help- ful. We wish to extend our sincere thanks to all who attended our performance and to all who helped to make it a success. Now that we have seen our four years in a brief summary, we say again that all of us who graduate this year who have participated in the various entertainments planned by the Dramatic Society have come to develop a deep appreciation of the long and laborious work required to make the smallest production a success. Our associa- tions with Father Murphy, SRI., Father Cur- ran, S.J., and Father Mulchay, SJ., have proved to be invaluable assets to our future enjoyment of the theater. JOHN J.

He is content merely to twirl a dial or, perhaps push a button, and sit back quietly and be enter- tained. If at anytime something goes wrong or it simply doesn't work, he must give up in -despair and call in a repair man to fix his radio. But to the members of the radio club this need not be so, many have progressed so as to be able to fix and better their radio at home. The radio club is the first in the minds of those who wish to aspire to a technical career because it combines the theoretical knowledge and pratical work of learn by doing which go to produce a good under- standing of radio and electricity. The success of the radio club is due to the sincere efforts of Father Murray, SJ. On Tuesdays he gave us many interesting and informative talks on the Funda- mentals of Radio and explained the func- tions and purposes of the various circuits. On Fridays we had shop', where we were able to build the actual circuits by the breadboard method with the aid of schematic diagrams. By building our own sets we were able to understand so much better the intricacies of radio. Each mem- ber started by building a one tube detector and adding two stages of audio-frequency amplication, and then two stages of radio- frequency amplication, and also building a rectifier which when all combined made up a complete six tube set. This being done it was then suggested by Father Murray, SJ., that each member build a set of his own choice, which resulted in a varied selection among which were a five tube superhetero- dyne receiver, a three tube all-wave radio, a fourteen watt amplifier, and a Walkie-talkie set. The radio club has given us much. We have a better knowledge of tools and a more definite idea of how to go about putting things together. Through the radio club we have acquired also a more personal knowledge of the ever forward science of radio reception which has made the world smaller and has linked far-flung countries. The ofhcers of the club were as follows: Harold McAleer, President, David Cusick, Vice-Presidentg Salvatore Giglio, Treasurer, Francis Greene, Secretary.

High Band has been a formal organization of the school since the fall of 1945. Its first appearance was made two weeks after its first rehearsal at the football game with Lawrence High School. The band made such a splendid and competent show- ing that it was taken to Portland, Maine, the following week for a never-to-be-for- gotten week-end of fun and football. Grad- ually it assumed the functions of the orches- tra. lt played the overtures for the school plays, Parents' Nights, and other occasions. The size of the band has usually wavered between 40 and 45 boys. After three years of pioneering the present band now has a full complement of musicians: trumpets, trombones, baritones, tubas in the brass section, and a sufficient number of sax- ophones and clarinets. There is never any lack of drummers. The repertoire of the band consists of marches, popular pieces of the day, light opera, medleys of various composers. To be explicit, the band folders have such pieces as Down Main Street, Men of Ohio, College Medley, Boogie Woogie March, Student Prince Overture, Rhapsody in Blue, etc. This year even more difhcult pieces will be tried, such asg selections from the con- temporary composer, Kahatchurian, which will be played in public at the annual con- cert. It can be said without boasting that any student musician after two years of rehearsing will acquire the ability to sense and play the rhythm of almost any kind of music. Since its inception Father Robert Tobin has been the Faculty Moderator, and Frank Mahler, Director. To the latter belongs much of the credit for the success of the band. Nothing but precision and mastery of rhythm satisfies Mr. Mahler. As a result the band has always turned in finished per- formances of which the first and second annual concerts were the highlights, and both the result of long and arduous practice under Mr. Mahler's baton. This year is the first year that officers were elected. Paul O'Brien, solo trumpeter, and Timothy Delaney, baritone, both char- ter members of the band, were elected Co- Captains. Leo Delaney of the Junior Class was named Sergeant-at-Arms. The Senior Class has furnished most of the charter members of the band. Those who were first to join it back in the fall of 1945 were: Paul O'Brien, Timothy Delaney, Alfred Walsh, Charles Smith, james Lawton, Rob- ert Ahern, Peter Keohan, Richard Gaulin, Owen Carroll, and until this year, John Lucey, who left school to go to the Stig- matine Seminary. Francis McCarthy joined us last year. Leo Lynch also gave many hours to rehearsal, as did James Ecker, who trans- ferred to Mt. St. Charles. This year's Senior Class truly deserves special praise for the loyalty of its members to our band. CHARLES SMITH MEMBERS OF THI2 BAND 51071 THE MERRY MINSTREL MEN With a mixture of Southern tunes, rol- licking jokes, laughing, black-faced end men and a chorus of 40 odd darkies, the first Minstrel Show was presented at B. C. High in 1946. The show ran on the third and fourth of May, making hundreds laugh and applaud. It was a new experience for Father Murphy and Father Tobin as they set to work to select the cast. The elite of senior year were surveyed for those leading roles-the inter- locutor and the end men. However, even after eight seniors and two juniors were chosen, two lucky soph- omores won places as end men. They were George Burke and Barney Shine. With the end men and interloeutor positions estab- lished, a search for talent was started to add more laughs between jokes. It was then that John Di Anni came to the front with his A La Durante - a roaring success. The only non-upperclass- man in the musical Chocolate Chorus was Peter Walsh who gave his all on the melody end. Last, but not forgotten, sitting behind end men, interloeutor, Chocolate Chorus -everything but the back drop, was the entire singing cast with 10 of our fellow classmates sprinkled about. And so the 1946 minstrel show ended to the lively rhythm of Louisiana I-Iayridef' Come on down South, way, way down South were the first bars of the melody that opened B. C. High's second Minstrel Show last year. With that, ten high step- ping end men pranced on stage before the school band and 50 members of the chorus. This year Father Tobin and Mr. Mahler had to find eight new end men and line up specialty acts, an interloeutor and many different songs. The highlight of the 1947 show was The Seawolves and The Original Aquabelles of 1890 with their tintype costumes and bulging muscles. These 14 fellows, as well as ten end men, had been taught tricky steps by the danc- ing teacher, Miss Tobin. Dancers in the Aquabelles were Al Walsh, Dick Fallon, Mike Heffernan, Mat Butler and Pete Keohan. The shining black- faced end men with their southern accents and snappy jokes were completed when Pete Walsh stepped up from the previous Chocolate Chorus, John Di Anni left The Nose behind and Frank Chane joined the ranks. Veterans from the previous year were Shine and Burke with the spirit of the stage deep in their blood. Nine men from '48 sat in the chorus which rendered such bal- lads as Roll You Mississippi, Roll, Zip- a-dee-doo-dah, and closed this smashing success of 1947 with Blue Skies.

HIGH ATHLETE f109T FOGTBALL- FRESHMAN YEAR 1944 Our first look at football at B. C. High was a favorable one as the team under the expert coaching of Clem McCann swept through a five-game season undefeated. This season was a shortened one due to games cancelled because of poor weather, and so for this reason we had to share the city championship with South Boston. The sea- son opened when we traveled to Cambridge to take an opening-game victory from Cam- bridge Latin to the tune of 12-0. In our first conference game we defeated our arch- rival English 14-13 in a bitterly fought contest. Then we beat Dorchester, Latin, and Technical in order. Outstanding throughout the whole season were Paul King and jack Casey, both of whom were chosen All-Boston, while Paul King was also named All-Scholastic. SOPHOMORE YEAR 1945 Many veterans greeted a new coach, Fella Cwintoff, in the fall of our second year. This year was destined to be one of the best seasons in the history of the school, as the 1944-1947 team went through a nine-game season with no losses and only one tie. We again took on Cambridge Latin for our opening game, and when the Hnal whistle had sounded, we had won by the lopsided score of 44-7. We then traveled to Lawrence and Port- land, Maine, to beat in turn Lawrence High 27-7, and Cheverus High 14-7. Coming back into Boston we defeated Latin 28-0, and Technical ZS-0. Then in a thrill-packed game English tied us 19-19. We then got back into the win column by beating Com- merce 19-7, and ending the sason with a 20-0 victory over Memorial. Again taking honors for his outstanding playing was Jack Casey who was chosen All-Scholastic by al- most every sportswriter. JUNIOR YEAR 1946 Our third year welcomed still another coach, Dan Weitekamp, our third coach in as many years. The team with only a few veterans from last year's powerful team got off to a poor start, but improved as it went along and won the last three straight. The final record was Hve Wins and five FOOTBALL SQUAD GROUP First row, left to right: D. Gaffney fRf11lI12lgC1'D, E. Donovan, D. Mciioldrick, R. Fallon, ml. Patten G. Foley QCapt.j, R. Kincade, G.

XVe lost our first three, losing the opening game with No. Quincy 33-6, then bowing to LaSalle 37-0, and Boston Latin 2-0. XVe got our first win of the season by downing Dorchester 26-13. The team was then in and out of the win column, losing to Trade 25-7, beating Technical 14-7, and losing to English 14-0. The team then dis- proved the experts by beating highly-fa- vored South Boston 12-0. The season ended with successive wins over Commerce and Memorial. Taking honors for their undying spirit, though many times for a losing cause, were Dave Sullivan and Tom Caprarella. SENIOR YEAR 1947 In our Senior Year Mr, Malcolm MeLoud, for many years a lay teacher in the school, took over the coaching duties. He was our fourth coach in our four years at B. C. High. The team went into Class B of the HC.ld111L1SICf,S Association and took on St. -Iohn's of Danvers, LaSalle, Chelsea, and a Thanksgiving Day Game with Revere, be- sides six conference teams. The team opened the season with a 14-7 win over St. John's Then at.Providenee the team held an upset lead of 6-2 for three periods until finally tiring before LaSalle's reserve strength, and losing by two quick touchdowns 15-6. Back in Boston the team took on Technical and Latin within thirteen days of the La- Salle game, beating Technical 14-7 and tying Latin 7-7, in which penalties nullified most of the team's offensive gains. Trade then beat us 18-14 on an off-day, and next Chelsea beat us 13-6 after the team had jumped to an early lead of 6-0. Dorchester then fell before our attack 14-0, while English completed two long passes and a long reserve early in the game to sink us 21-0. The team then rallied to down Com- merce but lost to Revere 14-0 as the frozen ground hampered our attack. The final record was four wins, five losses, and one tie. Seniors in the spotlight were Capt. George Foley for his hard play at tackle which merited for him a position on the Boston All-Stars, Dick Driscoll and Ed Donovan for their outstanding offensive and defensive game at ends, joe Patten a main- stay in the middle of the line at guard, Dick Fallon and Bob Kincade for their terrific defensive work at center, and Mike Heffernan for his powerful offensive and defensive play at halfback.

They skated into the win column by downing Norwood in a thriller. After losses to Wellesley and Waltham, Watertown was buried 9-1. They closed the season with a polished victory over a strong Waltham team, 5-0. Throughout the whole season the first line was very effective. The defense was one of the league's best with Frank Shellen- 'back and versatile Jim Reynolds at the points, and goalie, Art Brady, captain, and best net minder in the whole circuit. Four men were chosen for the All-Star Squad. SOPHOMORE YEAR 1945-46 In early December B. C. High introduced its new hockey coach, john F. Temple. The outlook for the coming season was very dim, but the club won five games and an- nexed three tics, and finished third in the league's standing. The only two losses were to Needham, the Metropolitan Champs. Both games were heartbreakers since six goals were called back because of tech- nicalities. 1 Second row: O'1.eary QMgr.J, Flynn. R. Sullivan, Leonard, Gemellaro, Sullivan, McCarthy, McDonough, Faueette, Asselin, Gallagher, Stapleton, Murphy, Stocknian. THEICE 112 Warren Lewis, a main-stay for three years, proved himself to be one of the finest players in schoolboy hockey. He scored 21 points to gain third in scoring honors. George Sullivan added class to the first line as he was a good scorer and an adept stickhandler. John Cattaneo rounded out the first line. Dave Ahern, coupled with Jim Reynolds, offered stiff opposition to all who faced them. Ed Casey in the new-founded role of goalie was the ace in the hole all season. His out- standing play won for him a berth on the first team All-Stars, along with Lewis and Cattaneo and Reynolds. Sullivan was chosen for the second team. JUNIOR YEAR 1946-47 The Eaglets got off to a fast start by downing Framingham 5-1. After that, all luck ran out, and they lost six straight to Watertown, Needham, Walpole, Norwood, Wellesley and Waltham. However, they held the distinction of not being shut out once. The play was close in a couple of games with a last-minute goal downing us. We broke into the win column by defeating Norwood 3-2, then dropped two, Needham 1-0 and Framingham 6-3. 1 George Sullivan, third high scorer in the league, led the team into action. His out- standing playing was the only consolation during the season, and he also won a place on the first team All-Stars. Newman Flanagan and Ray Cattaneo filled out the rest of the line, Dick O'Con- nor, Red Falvey, jack Sheehan rounded out the reserve line. Roger Morton and Bill Leonard interchanged with Capt. Dave Ahern on defense. The coach made many fruitless attempts to plug the goal but never succeeded. SENIOR YEAR 1947-48 The Eaglets skated into their first game full of apprehension, but they came out on top of a hard fought battle with Waltham 2-1. They dropped their next one in a heartbreaker to a vastly improved Framing- ham sextet S-3. After two bruising periods of scoreless hockey with Needham, George Sullivan scored on a 'beautiful pass from Ed McDonald early in the third period to set up a win. A well-groomed Walpole team throttled us down with a 5-0 win. We bounced right back with a 6-0 trouncing ovcr Norwood. A far-superior W'atertown Club handed us a 6-1 loss in a game of freak goals. We bat- tled Wellesley for three full periods, but had to be satisfied with a tie. We had to play off with Needham to dissolve a fourth-place tie. We beat them in a sudden-death period of play 1-0. ln the playoffs Watertown buried us 5-1. Walpole arose in the third period to down us 4-1. Framingham scored a close 2-1 win in a hard fought game to end the season. George Sullivanis outstanding play again won him a berth on the first team All-Stars along with Ed McDonald and Roger Mor- ton on the second. Our sophomore goalie, Vin Tackey, seems to be a good prospect in future years, Red Falvey finished off the first line. Gemellaro, Flynn and Gabson made up the reserve line with McCarthy and Leonard interchanging on defense.

Mclilroy. liirst Year-Mr. Cassell was appointed coach after the school had given up basket- ball for a few years and he succeeded in turning out a well-drilled team. A member of the varsity this year was Paul Hickey. Second Year-A different coach this year with Mr. Gintoff taking over. He turned out a very good team this year winding up the season with a 12-3 record. Third Year-A different coach again with Mr. Wietekgimp taking the coaching reins and he turned out a very good team. The record was not impressive, but only because the team lost three games by one point. Coach Wietekamp was building for next year having George Peirce, Tom and Jack McElroy, and Paul Hickey playing regular and Andy Gill being used as the sixth man. Peirce led in the scoring depart- ment with 301 points, featuring a record 64 points in one game. Tom McElroy was next with 134 points, followed closely by ,lack McElroy and Paul Hickey. The record was 12-7. Fourth Year-Following up what seemed to be the custom, B. C. High had another coach this year, Mr. John Kiley. Coach Kiley was greeted with ten returning lettermen from the previous year and indications were for a good year. The lineup on opening day l found four veterans who had played to- gether the previous season, plus a newcomer or two. The four were Tom McElroy at right forward, jack McElroy at left for- ward, Captain George Peirce at center, and Paul Hickey at right guard. The new- comer was Frank Burgholzer who teamed up with Paul in the back court at left guard. With the team full of the knowl- edge and Hnesse of good basketball, we went through the regular basketball season as Champions of the Boston Conference. But to do this the team had to meet East Boston for the title, and after downing Eastie, gained the right to compete in the Eastern Massachusetts Tournament. Captain George Peirce was outstanding, as usual, and he tossed in fifteen points to lead the team to victory. EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS TOURNAMENT B. C. High drew Lexington in the quar- ter finals of the tournament. It was apparent that the team was extremely nervous as they scored only five points the entire Hrst half, but their defensive work was success- ful in that they held Lexington to ten points. Between the halves something must have happened for they came out a re- 1141 juvenated ball club. Peirce and Burgholzer threw in two quick baskets after Lexington had opened the half with a basket and Lex- ington called a time out to get their bear- ings, but it was of little use. Paul Hickey scored a set shot and it was 12-11 with Lexington still leading. Then, with Peirce not scoring, George set up Tom McElroy throwing long passes to Tom who in turn faked his man out of position three times in succession and broke up the entire Lex- ington defense. From there on in B. C. High was in the van all the way. The en- tire team played superbly with the final score emerging as 24-19. Tom McElroy was high-scorer with twelve points. In the semi-finals B. C. High ran up against a tall Winthrop quintet. Tom Mc- Elroy put in a long one-handed push shot for the first basket of the game. but that was all the scoring for B. C. High in the first period with Winthrop getting five. But in the second period the team began to score and at the end of the first half B. C. High was behind by the margin of IS-14. Again the Eaglets came roaring back in the second half and again the maroon and gold quintet showed fine strategy in freez- ing the ball in the waning minutes of the game. The final score: B. C. High 51, Win- throp Higli 25. This was easily the best game the Eaglets had played all year with their passing working brilliantly. Tom Mc- Elroy was the game's high scorer again with 13 points. Paul Hickey and Frank Burgholzer cleared the defensive boards beautifully and passed the ball to the front line of Tom and Jack McElroy and George Peirce who neatly deposited the ball in the hoop. In the finals B. C. High was again the underdog but this time more than ever. The players of the opposing team, Belmont, were extremely tall, but the James Street quintet again displayed its characteristic speed and hustle. At the end of the first period it was a deadlocked 8-8. At the half it was 21-14, Belmont leading. B. C. High showed a lot of fight but Belmont came up with the points. In the second half B. C. High fought with a will to win and in the fourth period outscored Belmont, but Belmont just wouldn't be beaten. The final score emerged B. C. High 33, Belmont High 40. George Peirce was the high scorer of this game with ll points. But with a great team, a great coach and a great cap- tain, B. C. High proudly boasts a season's record of 19 wins against, only 4 losses, a truly great record in any man's book.

ACROSS THE BOARDS ln the year 1944 we were freshmen and track was under the direction of Mr. Casey, This year we were welcomed into Bos- ton Track competition at the East Newton St. Armory. ln the first three quad meets B. C. High finished second. In the final quad meet we romped to victory. Later on this year at Boston College, we defeated Mission but were defeated by Roxbury Latin. As Sophomores we rejoined Mr. Casey, S.-I., in November. Our first meet of the season was against a tough Malden team. We were just edged out. Facing Weymouth we were again knieked', in a tight battle. At an d the Armory we won two quad meets also finished second and third. The Re- lay Team ran second to LaSalle in the B. A. A. Meet however turned in better time L 116 than the winner of the afternoon's State Meet. Bob Gaughan was a member of the Relay Squad. B. C. High captured the Greater Boston Interscholasties and the Frederick O'Brien Trophy. Among others we defeated Boston Latin, Boston English, and Lynn English. In the warm spring air we faced St. Johnls Prep finishing just behind our host. W'e were again edged in a meet at Newton. The Relay Team again made a superb show- ing in the Belmont Class A Relay Car- nival winning the half-mile jaunt. In our Junior Year Mr. Richard Burke, SJ., took over the coaching duties after Mr. Casey, SJ., left for Weston College. Under the guidance of Mr. Burke, SJ., we had an excellent indoor season. We defeated 1 East Boston in our first quad meet 121 to 67. The following week we trampled Trade, Commerce, and Dorchester. Ancient rival, Boston English, snapped our winning streak by edging us 107-7526 in a hard fought battle. ln the G.B.I. Meet we captured the -lunior Trophy gathering 22 points. Outstanding juniors in Class A-B were: lfoley, Madigan, and Caughan. Class C members were: Bond, Marley, Cunningham, Melionald and Mike Heffernan. Early in November we were greeted by Mr. Leonard Mahoney, SJ., Over 75 can- didates reported to the East Brookline St. Oval. Our first victims were: Brighton. East Boston, Hyde Park and Brandeis. There were no running events in this meet due to a leak in the armory roof. In the second meet we were cut down by Tech. The scoring was: Boston Tech 153 B. C. High 8512, Trade 31M and Commerce 27. In our third meet we were trampled by vastly superior English and Tech. We took only 4511 points. Memorial was fourth with 43 points. Our final armory meet was February Iarst 18th. We gathered 141573 points defeating Roxbury, Memorial, Commerce and Dor- chester. In the Third Annual Greater Boston Intcrscholastics, one point separated East Boston and B. C. High. However, B. C. High was unable to garner one point trailing lfastie 37 to 36. East Boston took ll points in the -Iunior Class which indeed was a tremendous help. The Relay Squad established a new meet record pounding around the Carden Oval eight laps in 2.3 1.7. Congratulations to the Intermediate Division winners, B. C. High's Class D team. B. C. High has defeated among others, New- ton, Commerce, Malden, Lynn English, and Lynn Classical. We are now looking forward to a success- ful out-door season. However, we will more than likely lose some of our members to the Baseball and newly-formed Golf and Tennis Squads. The B. C. High Track Squad, one of the largest in the school's history, also has an abundant senior group.

Now, as a senior, he has been showing his heels to numerous competitors. I will do my level best to give you a complete verbal picture of each senior track- man. Tall, thin William Bond, exponent of the quarter-mile, has added many points to quad meet totals. Another 440 Speedster is diminutive Dick Madigan. Dick has been on the Track Team for three years, a letter winner in his Sophomore Year. B. C. Highis high-hurdles' duo of John Cunningham and footballer Mike Heffer- nan have placed consistently iniboth Quad and Garden Meets. Mike is also a fine high- jumper and shot-putter. George Foley, one of B. C. High's great- est athletes, is a proficient shot-putter. A constant winner, George has gathered a colossal number of points. Eddie Donovan and Harry Jennings are 1000-yd. runners. Eddie is a good football l t . 1 X player. Harry has been on the Track Squad for three years. Tommy Mulvehill and George Burke, both from Newton, are also thousand-yard runners. In Class CH Senior runners are: Bill Cal- lahan and Leo Stankard. Callahan is a crack quarter-miler, Stankard a speedy 220 dash man. Gerald Cleary and Ed McDonald are top- poinr gatherers in the 'broad jump and high janp, respectively. Ed is a five-six jumper and Gerry is a consistent placer. John Di Anni in the 440, James Dow- ney, Lawrence Silverson, and John Sullivan, milers have garnered their share of points. Bob Gaughan, although greatly hampered by injuries, has been one of the mainstays of the Track Squad. Senior Manager, John O'Neil, is to be congratulated because of his fine work in keeping our belongings together. Finally, but far from being last, is B. C. High's State and Northeastern Meet high- jumper, Bob Kelley. Kel is really great. Liao F. STANKARD, JR. isj BASEBALL FRESHMAN YEAR - RECORD 9-3 Coach McCann viewed the early baseball candidates with a disheartened look. Gone were the familiar faces of Fitzgibbons, Manning and Carey. To offset the loss be- hind the plate, Walter Murphy was brought in from the outfield to fill the catching va- cancy. Dick Shellenback bore the burden of the pitching staff. Ed Murphy won the first base job with Freshman Ray Cattaneo teaming well at shortstop with pivotman Jack Concannon. Jack Casey held down the hot-corner slot. Once more English dominated the Boston Conference while B. C. High, with a 9-3 record was losing to East Boston, Boston Technical and Roslin- dale. SOPHOMORE YEAR - RECORD 12-2 This year it was Coach Fella Gintoff call- ing out baseball hopefuls. However, the outlook was brighter than the previous year. Returning were veterans Walter Murphy, the Captain-catcher, Dick Shellenback, Ed Murphy, Jack Concannon, R.ay Cattaneo. Jack Casey also was among the returning, but this year roamed the outfield beside Bernie Mulligan and Ed Harnett. Dave Crehan and Sophomore Jack McElroy light- ened the pitching burdens from the shoul- ders of Shellenback. With this great lineup, B. C. High ran up a string of 9 straight wins. However, we lost to English, but since they also had lost once, a playoff game was made necessary to determine the Bos- ton Conference Champs. English once more ruled us by a 3-2 score and B. C. High was forced to accept the runner-up position. JUNIOR YEAR - 13-2 Still another coach greeted the candidates for the 1947 season.

Led by Capt. john Concannon at second base and his double-playmaker Ray Cattaneo, john McLaughlin, Murphy's sub, and the strong-armed pitchers Dave Crcehan and jack McElroy, a well-balanced ball team was fo1'med. Ken McDonald, Bob Guisti and Bob Maeomber, all juniors, rounded out a well assorted pitching staff. jack Reagan and jim Cummings battled all year, along with Jim Breau for a start- ing Erst-base slot. Connie and Ray again were the middle men and the talented Carl Maddelini won the third base job from Tom McElroy and Joe McKenney. The outfield consisted of Dan Ahern, Tom Londergan, Andy Maddaleni fthe only Sophomore on the squadj and Gene Mitchell, one of the most underrated players in the Conference. With this hard-hitting lineup, B. C. High won S straight until Norm Fitzgerald of Southie was forced to go 13 innings to beat us 5-2. Dave Creehan showed his remarkable pitching talent as he struck out 15 against Tech. Against Commerce, Carl Maddaleni had 5 of the 18 hits but Bob Guisti was forced to put out a short lived Commerce uprising, winning 7-4. In this game Ray and Connie had 4 double plays. As a result of their 13-1 record, B. C. High received an invitation to the Eastern Mass. School- boy Baseball Tourney. In the quarter-finals we drew Lynn Classical fthe eventual State Champs, and were outclassed to the tune of 12-0. Tom Londergan shone in the gloom of defeat with his sixth inning single, ruin- ing Rubinowski's no-hit pitching. After VAllSlTY SlfNlOllS BASliBAl.l, '1'1iAM lfirst row, left lo right: Guisti, VI.

Q I 120 1 BASEBALL the game, Ray Cattaneo was unanimously elected to Captain the '48 Eaglets to greater heights. FOURTH YEAR The cold winds were still blowing when our new coach took over his duties and Mr. john Kiley met the candidates at the Brook- line St. Gym. The season started in such a hurry that there were many things to be done and no time to lose. Having won the city championship last year and many vet- erans returning cast a feeling of optimism about the team but this too tended to make Mr. Kiley apprehensive. We would have to be on our toes to repeat with the rest of the league waiting around the corner for us. When the squad was cut there remained the veteran receivers john McLaughlin and Tom Londergang Ken McDonald, Bob Ma- comber, Jack McElroy and Bob Giusti would do the -pitchingg Tom McElroy and joe McKenney were battling for the second sack, Roger Morton looked good at first, Dick Doyle, a new comer was stationed at third, and the short stop for the fourth consecutive year would be the superb Ray Cattaneo. The outfielders numbered Andy Maddaleni, Bill McMorrow, Ed McDonald and Eddie Donovan. George Foley decided to continue to bolster the track team and Mr. Kiley would have to go along without the big bat of the mighty Babe. Our first victim was Jamaica Plain against whom we scored 20 runs. Ray Cattaneo inaugurated the season with a tremendous home run and Bob Giusti and Ken McDonald collaborated to limit J. P. to a lone tally. Bob Maeomber went to the hill against East Boston and the going was a little tougher. We won the game 6 to 4 on the heavy hitting of Roger Morton and Dick Doyle. Bob Giusti pitched well to beat Technical 3 to 2 but our bats remained silent against Southie and Bob Macomber lost a well pitched game 2 to 1. B. C. High prevailed over Brighton with I a 6 to 3 win. Bob Giusti gave up eight hits and had perfect control. John McLaughlin and Ed McDonald each contributed two hits. We would like to forget the next game when Bob Giusti was charged with his first conference defeat in two years when our defense let him down and Commerce beat us 7 to 5. With two league defeats to date B. C. High has only a slim chance to represent the Boston Conference in the Eastern Mass. Tourney but there will be plenty of victories to come. Congratulations and good luck to the entire team. JOHN MULVLHILL JOHN MULVEHILL fMgr.J, JOHN KILEY QCoachj RAY CATTANEO fCapt.J. 121 lik.
