.. ' a sy RENAISSANCE BUSINESS STAFF First row, left to right: Finn, Giglio, Natolli, McCarthy, Father McCarthy, SJ., McDonough, Hogan, Ford, Smith. Second row: Madigan, Flynn. Foley. Walsh, Mahoney. MCC-oniglc, Carrol, Sullivan, Greene, Heffernan, Shine. Third row: McCarthy, Stevens, W'illwerth, Sullivan, Racke, McDonald, Roche, Lavin, Patten, Keohan. 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

THE RENAISSANCE - LITERARY PCJRTRAIT CF FOUR HAPPY YEARS Thankful recognition is deserved by many for making this edition of the REN- AISSANCE possible. 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.

. , 4 sf... SENIORS ON BOTOLPHIAN STAFF First row, left to right: Mulvehill, Carroll, Doherty, Father Griffin, SRI., Leary, Burke, Lewis. Second row: Tobin, Giglio, Gaglini, McElroy, Lavin, Cunningham, Natoli, Malone. Third row: McCarthy, Stevens, Mcfionigle, Mahaney, McDonald, Mahoney, Davey, Sheehan. 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.
