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

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.

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.
