Now the yearned for hour is passing Yet the shadows deeper grow Round a dark and lonely campus Alma Mater, must we go? We will miss the pleasant voices And the faces that we knew. Of the loyal hearted classmates Of the Class of Twenty-two. For our college years were pleasant. With a gentleness that strays Through the hearts of Twenty-two men In good old college days. We never will forget the boys That are or used to be: For this book in years to come Will serve our memory. Our love will be as deep Maroon And always fair as Gold That will grip the hearts of Twen- ty-two When Twenty-two is old. Defeat may come or victory No matter what is told: Our love will be as deep Maroon And always fair as Gold. We ' ll take the road from old B. C. And will forget her never. But smile on tears and smile on years Forever and forever. DEDICATION To the Fhilomathcia Club: It doesn ' t take a fellow four years to find out who his best friends are. It didn ' t take the Class of Twenty-Two four years to find out who its best friends were and the best friends of Boston College. But it has waited until this last moment to respectfully dedi- cate its final collegiate accomplishment to the thousand friends whose love and sacrifice have done so much to make a greater Boston College possible, and Twenty- Two the greatest class of all.

THE FACULTY Not in ages could these pages Carry men more brave and true, Than the ones who taught the precepts To the Class of Twenty-two. With gentle hearts as we depart These men of God just pray anew For success to crown the future Of the Class of Twenty-two. They are our seers, they had no peers As they taught us what to do; But they feared the clever questions Of the Class of Twenty-two. But together, we did weather The storm, and now we ' re tinough; We all can thank the faculty Because we ' re Twenty-two. On the morrow, we with sorrow Bid the Faculty adieu. But they ' ll never be forgotten By the Class of Twenty-two. John J. McKeakin. ' 22. thirteen REVEREND PATRICK J. McHUGH, S.J. VICE PRESIDENT, DEAN AND PREFECT OF STl ' DIES Page fourteen Page fifteen Page sixteen Class History FRESHMAN HE Class of ' 22 was received by Alma Mater as no other class ever was, and no doubt, as no other class ever will. Its reception was unique in the history of the College. It was a Boston College in arms that welcomed us as Freshmen, and our class was a militant class. Because of the raging flu epidemic, regular classes were postponed until October tenth. The barracks of the S. A. T. C, the olive-drab of the student-body soldiers, and the routine and discipline of the Army impressed the Freshmen with the seriousness of war, and the visitors with the earnestness with which Boston College was devoting herself to the cause of our Country. Those of our class who, for various reasons did not enroll in the S. A. T. C, were instructed by the Rev. Fr. Murphy, S. J., and Mr. O ' Connell, S. J., in the beauty and value of Latin, Greek and English literature, while Fr. De Butler, S. J., and Mr. Tobin, S. J., sought to enlighten and cultivate us in French and Mathe- matics respectively. The many others of our classmates who had signed away their lives on Alumni Field on October first, received their military training under Col. Parke, Capt. Kelley and their assistants, while the intellectual pursuits of the soldiers were well cared for by our efficient faculty, with Fr. Devlin as Dean. Except for the small group under Fr. Murphy, S. J., and Mr. O ' Connell, S. J., all classical studies were abandoned, and the usual curriculum was replaced by a military and scientific course. Then came the Armistice on November eleventh. The welcome news was re- ceived by a noisy and thankful student body. The dawn of peace saw the glorious end of the famous S. A. T. C. On November eighteenth the college men who were in the corps returned to regular classes under the old curriculum. The men were assigned to regular Freshman professors. The time that was lost was quickly made up by the untiring efforts and ceaseless zeal of the Rev. Frs. Meagher, S. J., De Butler, S. J., and Murphy, S. J., and the Messrs. O ' Connell, Devereaux, Leavy, Tobin, McNally and Busam, S. J. The short football schedule of four games resulted in two victories and as many defeats. Without hesitation, we claim that the defeats were due to the loss of practically the entire team to the service. The only members of the Class of ' 22 on the S. A. T. C. football team were Jimmy Doyle, our zealous President, and Mat Heaphy. An event which deserves more than passing note is the visit of the then Gov. McCall and Gen. Edwards, Commander of the Department of the Northeast, to University Heights. Together with Father Lyons they spoke to the soldiers, who were drawn up before them in battalion formation. The battalion then passed in review before the General, receiving the highest praise for its efficiency. With the fateful mid-years past, and the class established as a real collegiate unit, it is not surprising that at the earliest possible date we chose those who were to lead us in the remainder of our Freshman year. Thus on January 16th we elected Clem Jordan as the first President of the Class of 1922. His asso- ciates were Dan McSweeney and Arthur Mullin, Vice-President and Treasurer, respectively. The zeal and ability of the class under these capable leaders caused great anxiety in the ranks of the upper classmen. Fearing that the prestige and homage rightfully due them was not forthcoming, thev, through their officers, read a code of laws commanding respect from the Class of ' 22, and demanded that Freshmen should absent themselves in the presence of upper classmen. The reading pre- cipitated a riot which terminated with the above-mentioned gentlemen of the upper strata second best. During Passion week, the popular retreat week in and around Boston, the College held its annual Retreat in St. Valentine ' s Chapel in the Church of the Immaculate Conception. The Class of ' 22 was exceptionally fortunate, the cele- brated Father Scott, S. J., preached the sermons. All the benefits derived from the retreat will never be known, but the keen attention to studies, and the more frequent visits of the students to the Chapel gave evidence that the retreat is a real vital function in collegiate life. On Ascension Thursday, May 29th, one hundred and five members of the Freshman class were received into the Sodality of the Immaculate Conception. The Rev. Fr. Lyons, then President of the college, celebrated the Mass and wel- comed us to the Sodality. Following the reception at St. Mary ' s Chapel, the class breakfasted together. The beautiful Spring day will ever be remembered by the members of the class as one of the happiest days of their college career. Immediately upon the heels of that joyful event came the final examinations with their concomitant woes. But they were soon over and the vacation season was upon us. We parted in June — healthier in mind and body, and with firm promises of meeting again in the Fall. Page eighteen REV. JOHN T. KEATING, S. J. REV. THOMAS A. BECKER, S. J. REV. JAMES E. MCQUADE, S. J. REV. ROBERT F. X. REYNOLDS, S. J. Page nineteen Class History SOPHOMORE ACK we came to face Sophomore. On September 2. ' 5, 1919, we looked on the mountain lakes and sandy beaches, realizing that ten long months would have to pass before we could enjoy their beauties again. For on the morrow regular classes were to begin. But the pangs of regret at leaving the life of Reilly were of short duration, be- cause the joy of grasping the firm hands of our loyal classmates filled us with great expectations. The bugbear of Sophomore that was wont to terrify us, soon faded into shadows under the kind and firm hands of the Rev. Frs. Keating, Becker, McGarvey, McQuade, Reynolds, S. J., and the Messrs. Tobin, Parsons and Masterson, S. J. The election of class officers was held on October 20, and Jim Doyle was elected President, and was flanked by Dan McSweeney and Art Mullin in the capacities of Vice-President and Secretary-Treasurer, respectively. The famous B. C. spirit and the increase of fellowship that was everywhere apparent sought to express itself in some worthy manner. Consequently the baby weekly came into existence. The present flourishing condition and generous size of the Heights is due to the untiring efforts of the then Moderator, Mr. Master- son, S. J., and the stafi ' , and to the whole-hearted support it received from the student body in the early davs of its existence. Encouraged as it was by the one hundred per cent subscription of the Class of ' 22, and by the creditable work of its members who were on its staff, the Heights started with a bound, and is now recognized by all as the classiest collegiate column in the country. Early in October, Boston College received the great distinction of hoiim iiii: the beloved and scholarly Cardinal Mercier, and our own alumnus. Cardinal O ' Connell. It was indeed a remarkable day in the annals of Boston College. Under the masterful hand of Major Cavanaugh, the football season was a glorious success. Numbered among the conquered teams were such wonderful football machines as Yale, Georgetown and Holy Cross. The hand of the Class of ' 22 was a vital factor in turning the tide of victory towards our Alma Mater. Jim Doyle, Phil Corrigan, Jack Heaphy, George Kelley, Ted Madden and ■ ' Bill Kelliher were the leaders of our class who were instrumental in brincing the Eagle of Victory to the Heights. Another member of our class who brought the Maroon and old Gold liclorc the eyes of the sporting world was our great ruimer, Jake Driscoll. By winiiiMg the Gaston Cup presented by Colonel Gaston of Boston, in a special (lOd-yard race, Big Jake broke the world ' s indoor record for the distance, which record was formerly held by Ted Meredith. But the energies of the class were not all devoted to studies and athletics. Many eloquent and fiery sessions were held in the room of the Marquette Debating Society. Under the leadership of Mr. Henry Foley in the first term, and Mr. Frank Magennis in the second term, the Marquette advanced to the prominent position Page twenty it now holds for Freshman and Sophomore debaters. The mock trial of Dan McSweeney, as President of the Alpha Mu, by Jim Doyle as District Attorney, was one of the cleverest sketches ever worked out in a debating society. In December, the Dramatic Association presented their first play in the High School Hall. The play, a three-act comedy entitled Helping Father, was written and directed by Father William Murphy, S. J. The success of the show might be traced to the constant and brilliant work of many members of Sophomore. On January 16th the Sophomore class held its first smoker. The largest gathering ever to attend a smoker in the old High School Gym departed fully satisfied that the committee headed by Bill Torphy left nothing to be desired in the way of entertainment. And again on March 17th, the Class of ' 22 held their first social endeavor in the form of a dance. The success and satisfaction which marked the initial bid for social prominence of the class will never be forgotten by the members, many of whom appeared for the first time at a collegiate social function. As in the Freshman year, in Passion week the students went into their Retreat. This, the second annual Jesuit retreat for the members of ' 22, was conducted by Father Arnold, S. J., of St. Mary ' s Parish, and, like its predecessor, it was a marked success in attendance, attention and future conduct. The remarkable rapidity with which the final exams were approaching, and the thought of parting again gave rise to the desire to enjoy each other ' s company in a fitting manner, and resulted in sectional picnics and banquets, and culminated in the enjoyable mock Presidential Campaign on Class Day. Page twenty-one Page twenty-two Class History JUNIOR E entered Junior September 22, 1920, feeling free from the shackles of Latin and Greek. Again we were divided into sections. Fr. Mc- Closkey, Fr. Cox and Fr. Boehm, S. J., devoted ten hours a week in an attempt to make us lovers of wisdom, while we were instructed by Frs. Lynch, Mellyn, Dore and Stinson, S. J., in Physics, Political Economy, History and Journalism. A new Dean, Fr. McHugh, S. J., was Pre- fect of Studies, and Fr. Fitzpatrick, S. J., administered the duties of Prefect of Discipline. Between our studies and our attention to the famous football team, we had but little time for other attractions. What a team that was! What victories! The Champions of the East! Undefeated in any contest. What an important part the members of ' 22 played! The mere mention of a few names, as Corrigan, Doyle, Heaphy, Kelley, Kelleher, all of ' 22, brings to mind many victorious scenes. On Columbus Day our speedy relay team easily defeated the representatives from Harvard. From the crack of the gun to the crossing of the tape, there was no doubt of our superiority. Jim Caffrey and Jake Driscoll, both members of ' 22, easily outstepped their Crimson opponents, finishing yards ahead. Because of the serious continued illness of Father Burkett, S. J., Professor of Psychology in Senior, it became necessary to transfer Father McCluskey, S. J., from Junior to Senior. By this change the Junior class lost a capable and pains- taking professor. But being divided into two sections instead of three, the class benefited by the closer union of its members. The popular combination of Home Night and Smoker, now in vogue among the under classes, was started by the Class of ' 22. On November 4th, 1920, we introduced this plan of entertainment with great success. The evening ' s enter- tainment was preceded by a supper to the members of the class. The Fulton Debating Society had a very busy year combating the activities of the proponents and advocates of the Smith-Towner Bill and other bills of a similar pernicious nature. The Heights and Stylus acquired added success with the acquisition of many new members of the Junior class. Success after success trailed the talented Glee Club. No song of worth for men ' s voices but that was contained in their repertoire. Moreover, the members of the Dramatic Association, after long and diligent practice under the direction of Fr. W. Murphy, S. J., scored a brilliant success in Jordan Hall on December 21, 1920. The play, entitled A Night Off, was performed with far greater expression and art than is usual among amateurs. Jordan Hall was also the scene of another fine B. C. entertainment when on Feb- ruary 7, 1921, the musical clubs gave a concert in this popular auditorium. In praising both the college play and the concert of the musical clubs, credit is ipso facto given to the many Juniors who were helpful to a great degree to make them successful. Page twenty-three All the boys from the villages, the towns and cities, made their grand bow at the Junior Prom, held in the Hotel Vendome early in February. The gathering has well been styled a collegiate gathering of class. Before a large and appreciative audience Henry E. Foley, of the Junior class, was awarded the Fulton Prize medal on the evening of March. 18, 1922. It is most unusual for a Junior to win such an honor. Mr. Foley and several of his asso- ciates, notablv Mr. Joyce, Mr. Consodine, Mr. Magennis. Mr. Carey, and Mr. Tucker, created quite a scene in the State House when it appeared that the Smith- Towner Bill would receive the approval of New England educators. The relay team won nation-wide recognition for their wonderful race at the Pennsylvania Relay Carnival on April 30, 1921. The team, two of which were members of ' 22, broke the record for the class B relay. Again, on May 19 Jack Ryder ' s charges won a splendid victory by capturing the Eastern Intercollegiate Meet. The field was completely outclassed by the Maroon and Gold representa- tives. The running of Driscoll of Junior in the 440 was the outstanding fea- ture of the day. The period of recollection and reparation was held during Passion Week, as in former years, in St. Valentine ' s Chapel in the church of the Immaculate Concep- tion. Father Arnold, of the faculty of Boston College High, officiated at the retreat. Friends of Boston College will always remember the first ten days of May. 1921. The much advertised and well-deserved drive began and terminated within this short period. The opening was marked by an enormous parade of the entire student body. In the competition for the best-conceived attraction in the parade the Junior Class won the palm for its beautiful and stalely float crowned with a handsome spread-eagle. The huge sum of two million dollars was raised or pledged by the untiring efforts of all concerned. Baseball was rather unfortunate in the spring of ' 21. But considering the class of the opponents, seven defeats out of nearly twenty contests is hardly a matter for grief. Those of Junior who turned in some fine work both on the field and at bat were ' Jocko Halligan and John Cody. The honor of President of the Senior Class was unanimously bestowed on Jimmv Dovle, our pilot since Sophomore davs. The other class offices were won by Paul R. Duffly, James J. Connolly and William R. Drugan. James W. Jake Driscoll was chosen bv a vote of the entire student bodv f(ir the inipurtant post of President of the Athletic Association. Riverside was chosen by the outing committee for our i la- |ii(iii( . I he two ball games, the swimming, the canoeing and the big lutirli uill litlp In recall that happy day we all had together. The dreaded orals came in the early days of June. The severity of this mode of examination was recompensed by its short duration. It was no time before they were over. To clo?e the account of our Junior activities without mentioning our part in the Class Day Exercises would be a flagrant omission. 01 the im- personations, Dr. Einstein by Clem Jordan, officers of the law by Hill Canty and Jack White, were conspicuous and won great applau c from llic gathering on Alunmi Field. Page twenty-four REV. JOSEPH F. BEGLAN, S. J. REV. CLARENCE E. SHAFFREY, S. J. FRANCIS MCMAHON, A.B., A.M. REV. JONES I. CORRIGAN, S. J. Page twenty-five Class History SENIOR T CAME at last. The day we looked forward to for so long. The hour when we should be Seniors arrived. The respect and homage of under classmen were ours. On the twenty-third of September we assembled together for the first time and there was little evidence that we realized that this was the beginning of the end, the glorious end in June. Our expectations of the interesting periods in Ethics were by no means un- founded. The recognized difficulties of the study were lessened in a surprising manner by the clear explanations of Father Corrigan, S. J. The matter in evidences also received due attention from him. Psychology, one of the most elusive of sciences was the subject of many long hours of exposition by the patient and scholarly Father Beglan, S. J. Moreover, he devoted two hours a week to lecturing on the History of Philosophy. Father Mellyn, S. J., and Mr. McMahon gave three hours of their time weekly to Pedagogy and English, respectively. The football team was but a shadow of the machine that carried the Maroon and Gold to so many victories the previous year. However, the season was not one of absolute disappointment. Victories were scored over Boston University, Baylor University of Texas and Marietta College of Ohio. But the crushing defeat administered by Holy Cross throws a cloak of gloom over the whole season. Manager Joe Beaver deserves a great credit for his efficient work and his success in overcoming almost overwhelming difficulties. The annual night-before smoker of the Senior Class, held at the City Club, was the direct antithesis of what was to follow on the morrow. Chairman Henry Smith and his committee presented the best night ' s entertainment ever witnessed by B. C. men. The well chosen and opportune words of our President. Father Devlin, and Coach Major Cavanaugh were appreciated by all. Contrary to custom, the annual retreat of the student body coninieiRpd tliis year on October 18. The purpose of this change, to acquaint the students with the seriousness of collegiate work, was fulfilled by the closer application of the students to their duties. Rev. Fr. Gasson, S. J., formerly President of Boston College, conducted the retreat for the Seniors in St. Mary ' s Hall. Hi- advice on the choice of vocations increases in value each day. Page twenty-six Marshal Foch, the greatest hero of the World War, paid B. C. a visit early in November. He was escorted from his automobile to the Assembly Hall by a body of Seniors, arrayed for the first time in cap and gown. A most enjoyable night was offered on December 16th in the High School by the Boston College Dramatic Association, in producing a play called A Day Lost. Walter R. Graham, President of the Dramatic Association, and James Collins played a large part in making the performance a success. The annual ball given by the Philomatheia Club of Boston College to the Senior Class was held at the Copley Plaza on the evening of January 18th and was the greatest social success of the season.

More firsts can be applied to him for he is a first-class Joe. Indeed four years slip away much too swiftly when men have companions like the inimitable and only Joe Beaver, and his sunny disposition and humorous nature has been a pleasure to all his classmates. He has continuously exemplified a go through spirit, an earnest desire to help along in the dark places, and a generosity which others might well imitate. As a football manager Joe is our all-American selection. It takes three hard years to become a manager but Joe at last found himself in the position }] so long coveted. Then he surely was in his glory, giving countless and diBi- cult orders to the awe-stricken Freshmen. After a two thousand-mile tni) to the Gulf of Mexico, Spivis, as he is also known, outmanaged Baylor 2, to 7. On the Q. T. it has been whispered, however, that he gave the team Beeman s in- stead of Wrigley ' s on November 26, which accounted for a certain sad story. Again, we know this self-same gentleman as the slick and wordy reporter of the Traveler. To dash off 500 words on a subject that wasn ' t, is no small task, but Joe found news when it was as scarce as the leaves in Jan- His favorite hobby has been to surprise the en- tire class hy appearing about once a month on time for class. Joe and 9.30 quarreled some time ago and to date have consistently avoided each other. But late arrival has been offset by late departure, for the lab- oratory always held Joe until about 5.00 p. m. If Joe ' s loquacious harangues on the qualities of Tex- as riches and poultry bring results we expect to see him in the sunny and oily Southwest as a chemist. V EDWARD FRANCIS BELL 39 East Newton St., Boston, Mass. Born Sept. 10, 1899 Boston English High School; Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Foot- ball Squad 3; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Too bad we cannot reproduce the mighty power as well as the jovial and good natured countenance of our own Sam Bell, for in his physical prowess lies the force of all his arguments and the chief reason why we have continually assented to his way of thought. Sam is both the Atlas and the Hercules of the Class of ' 22 and we have all learned this fact long ago. To advance the prowess of Alma Mater on the athletic field has been Eddie ' s goal in sportdom, and he has succeeded to a great extent, having performed merit- orously in tra ck events for four years, be- ing a consistent scorer for the college. The weight events have always known Eddie as a master. He also worked hard on the football squad of ' 21, and more than one opposing lineman will testify to the stonewall effect of bumping into Eddie on the Heights gridiron. But Sam did not shine alone in athletics, for he graced the concert platform with the Glee Club in the beautiful art of song many times and oft. In fact, the Club would be a non-entity if Sam ' s mellow tones were missing. Is there any Senior who can forget or cease to cherish that quartet? at the banquet, when Sam ' s strains of Sweet Adeline moved the audience to violent applause and many tokens (mostly olive stones) of appreciation. Eddie being a science man, the Lab took many of his spare hours in his ceaseless perusal of chemical affinity, and the fact of his name appearing second on the class list accounted for his many and excellent re- citations. We can never forget the wit and cheery air, the gen- uine goodwill and sportsmanlike ways of Eddie Bell. We commend his feats of athletic endeavor and his at- tention to class duties. With a reluctant good-bye we give him every assurance of our well wishes for suc- Page thirty-one WILLIAM LE FEBORE BIGLEY 157 I ' ullege Ave.. Somerville, Mass.

It is indeed a pleasure to present to vou our musical and social leader. Billv. and who of us will ever forget how cutely Morgan Ryan used to call him Billy? For four years Bill has been associated with our musical clubs and for four years they have been successful. No Home Night, no smoker or banquet would have been complete without a few- songs from Bill. And he did sing them well. For four years the orchestra and band have reaped the benefit of his extraordinary drumming with now and then a xylophone solo by way of unusual entertaiimient. Besides being an orchestra leader Bill is also a movie king reigning over an emporium at Hampton Beach during the summer. While in Somerville High Bill was quite an athlete but since his ar- rival at the Heights he has devoted all his spare time to the musical activities of the college and what the athletic teams have lost has been more than gained by the Musical Clubs. The Class would have been more than lacking in pep if Bill had not been among us. As a student he has often astounded us by his intellect- ual brilliance and now with the voices of the class I blend my own and in their name I say that our class is happier in having possessed Bill and B. C. has been better with the treasury of his generous labors. To sing and by his singing please Was Billy Bigley ' s aim With drum and voice in future years He ' s sure to make a name Unless perhaps as his drums beat He ' ll join the Scm across the street. Page thirty-tw( FREDERICK ARTHUR BURKE 16 Harvard Ave., Waltham, Mass. Born June 16. 1900 Boston College High School 1918; Waltham B. C. Club 1. 2, 3. 4; K. of C. Club 4. Fred ran down to B. C. from Waltham in his little car and he brought with him at least two dozen watches from the fam- ous factory. Fred awed his brother fledg- lings in Freshman with his show of Mi- das-like timepieces. Fred has often dream ed of the beautiful castles that he would some day build but strange to say they faded with the dawn of day. As the blushing violet shuns all the brazen ef- frontery of the world so Fred is quite content to leave the hurly-burly of each day ' s battle in the hands of others. Each one realizes the beauty and fragrance of the violet and the happiness it adds to such a dreary world and so it is with Fred. As Fred imself has said, his was a policy of active inactivity. In high school the lure of rippling streams, and the shining moon made a deep impression on Fred and he brought it to us here. Nutting ' s-on-the-Charles, set in its frame of leafy bowers, attracted him and he lent to it the fragrance of his radiance. Even as the violet, Fred has many characteristics which, when brought to no- tice, captivate the beholder. Eyes as blue as summer skies, smile as cheery as morning ' s dawn, and disposi- tion as gentle as the rustling breeze, Fred has lingered with us that in passing all might benefit even for a time and get a little of the splendor of Aurora ' s dawn. Bill Elberry realized the worth of Fred ' s nature in the midst of such material things and he clung to him as Damon unto Pythias. Idyllic friendship was their toast and their motto was One for all, and all for one. On many summer nights Bill was seen in company with Fred and Bill began to look for pretty things, the same that had attracted Fred ' s notice at that famous watering- place, Nutting ' s-on-the-Charles. And this was one little thing that Fred accomplished that goes down in the Book as a credit beside his name in addition to the successful accomplishment of receiving his degree.

The little hamlet of Medford became famous on March 18, in the year which saw the beginning of the twentieth cen- tury, for at that time was born Walter Francis; nor has any special nom de droilerie ever been pinned on him. For Busam always seemed to us fittingly dis- tinctive; he was the only one of his kind we had with us and in the telephone di- rectory, his name stood alone, in proud seclusion between Busalacchi, the li-h man and the first of the Busbys. His ambitions were varied. In our Freshman year, he was one of the few ((uirageous enough to join the Glee Club and risk brick houses on the installment plan. His vox-populi carried our fog-horns along to success. Two years later, as a true son of B. C. he was stricken with the fever of public speaking. Ergo the Fulton came to know him. He was a colleague that year of Bolshev- ic Evans, which is writing volumes by inference. Walter was ever a bountiful friend. Were it Horace, Trigonometry, Physics or even the old rascal Juvenal that plagued us, he was always ready to help us with voice that was conversational or whispering as the occasion demanded. In Philosophy his synopses after Father Boehm ' s style, gave many of us invaluable assistance. After a review with them, e.xams were mere exercises of ability for us. In his Senior year Walter ' s guiding star seemed to hover over the Foreign Service School at Washington. It may however lead him on a further chase but what- ever his life work, his habits of quiet observation and efficiency in his work are his passports to success.

He had the honor of being a member of the first relay team to defeat the Purple since the Eagles began exercising in short pants, bare legs and spiked shoes. However his activities are not confined to the track. In the class room he is a diamond in the rough, possessing more wisdom than his reticence would indicate. Believe it or not in society he is as much admired as he is feared. Anyone who saw Jim at the Philomatheia Ball, resplendent in the finest product of Reid and White, pleasing with manly color. We ' ll say at least that he was smooth. It was whispered about that after the men saw their pretty partners congregated about Jim. the jealous and prudent swains refused to exchange a dance. But this social lion has one specialty in which he is distinctly unique. Jim is better than Frank Merriwell in timing his sprint to catch a departing train. The passengers watch him in open-mouthed admiration while his team-mates say as usual. He is like the society belle, he arrives late. Please don ' t infer for the same reason. Late to be consistent, for the track picture? Some salty person said he was getting a facial. We ser- iously doubt this. A boy with a skin that would shame a Pompeiian cream advertisement hardly needed such a treatment to look well in a picture. We will always remember his pleasant smile, and hope that in future years will find Dame Fortune smiling upon him as she has during his most pleasant sojourn on the Heights.

Bill came to us in the famous Ameri- cans All ' war group that hivouacked on our campus in 1918. He claims that he gets all his patriotism from Bunker Hill, located in his native heath. From the day he entered he was doomed to be class beadle because of his towering stature and frank countenance which gave evidence that at last they had a man who was im- mune from student tampering. But Bill was one of the most popular beadles B. C. ever had. He has been treasurer of so many things that he can ' t remember them all and outside of the fact that he always smoked cigars his record is above impeachment. Bill ' s Samson figure made him an invaluable member of the class football team and he plaved a very trouble- some game.... for the other fellow. He was also a member of the Dramatic Club and the audience well remembers his very creditable Monk in the Shakespear- ean play. Bill had all the characteristics of the monks of ancient days and his facial makeup was a triumph of art. While you couldn ' t accuse Bill of being a grind, itexertheless the books recog- nized their master when Willie tore through them. If you notice the constituents of his club picked him as an officer and accordmg to the statistics he was the whole works. Everything was referred to him and everything was answered by him. Roger Babson gives his per- sonal efficiency a rating of 98 in his compilation for the Who ' s Who of B. C. Bill has a very engaging disposi- tion that readily acquired recognition and in this recog- nition friends were made, that remained for four won- derful vears. Bill has had considerable business ex- perience and tempers his talk with a shade of compet- ence and confidence that is beyond the ken of many college men. Bill is thinking of entering the wool game and we know well that he will make a fine shepherd. Page thirty-si. JOHN FRANCIS CAREY 146 Blue Hill Ave., Roxbury, Mass. Born Aug. 4, 1S99. B. C.

The old axiom that still waters run deep is an apt expression for the pers- onality of John Carey. Athough possess- ing an abundance of worth in various lines of endeavor he has always seemed con- tented with life ' s offerings, and has been a diligent worker in the more elegant phases of college activities for the class of ' 22. The first of his achievements and the one most redounding to his fame is the long and productive association he has had with the Stylus. In 1918, a meek Freshman, he was admitted to the Staff, and since then has contributed some of the finest reading matter printed in this noted publication. He rose to the posi- tion of assistant editor in his Senior year. Of late John has entered into news- paper limelight, for as college reporter for the Post, B. C. events have always been in the fore through his efforts. As an orator, John has exhibited much talent, being one of the chosen to de- nounce in fiery speech, the malevolent bills before the law-makers. He has been a leading factor in the oratorical prize events and Ful- ton debates. Perhaps it was his love for the powers of the human voice that prompted him to enter the realm of song, for he has been a budding Caruso for four years in the Glee Club. Apart from an expedition to the Fordham game with Hasenfus, we find no words but those of praise, but in the fullness of his virtues we pass this by. John is a modest scholar and a true son of B. C. To his future efforts we can see only a glorious end. May he be ever prosperous. Page thirty-seven FRANK CARRON 40 Woodward St., South Boston.

Yes, this is Frankie ' s page, he of South Boston and Chestnut Hill. We shall ever remember with happy recollections his cheery smile and pleasing wit. which pair of qualities have chased away many hours of gloom and relieved the moments of pessimism when mid-years or those fateful monthly tests awaited our pleas- ure. Frankie has successfully passed through the four degrees of the K. of C, which achievement surely has been attained by verv few at Frankie ' s tender age. In ad- dition to this feat, he has enriched many and varying occupations by his diligent application, from the more humble art of dispensing garden produce to the inhabitants, even to the sole ruler of the stamp window at his local post office. The class does not attribute any gems of eloquence to his genial self, but knows him as a consistent scorer in scholastic events. The class as a whole has not heard his characteristic sunniness from the stage, but that finer individual contact has been one of the pleasantries of college life. ■ Laughter is the sunshine of human existence is the proverbial motto ol f rank Carron. He has succeeded in spreading his joyous air to everyone about him and we sincerely trust that no future sternness will mar his jovial mood, for the smiling Frankie no doubt will find ultimate success in the great field of life which spreads before him after the sheepskin is awarded.

Albert or Chappie, as he is known around school, walked right in without question with an imposing diploma from Boston Latin School. Chapman is a stu- dent in every sense of the word. In fact he studies so hard his mind becomes blank to all outside activities. He should take a nice vacation on a pretty little farm for the summer and give himself up to frolic and fun. A review of Al ' s career shows that it is all studies, greatly interspersed with medals and honors. Ah ! A most excellent thing. In the midst of a stiff course Chappie studied law at Suffolk Law School nights while he attended B. C. days. From the looks of things he is out to make Edison appear like a plugged nickel by answering all his questions and asking for more. The past summer Al toured Europe, oh yes, cum pede. And Al took his books with him, couldn ' t think of parting with such friends. While his companions stood in the Italian sunset and watched the Dago by, Al studied all about Kant and his cohorts. Al and his friend, George McKim, the letterman, have a corner in Philosophy on the El every day and many is the weighty question that is decided in the salon of Barney ' s car. In the midst of going to the hop tonight, Dan? or say, that was a wonderful game Saturday, or did you hit it? you hear Al sa- piently remark: George, Kant is all wrong about that point. He divorces morality from legality. Ain ' t it a grand and glorious feeling? But because of Chappie ' s diversified course and because of his complete knowledge of his fifteen or sixteen subjects it is hard to say what he will select as his life work. However the safe bet is that he ' s a figure of the future in whatever branch he takes because he ' s so doggone consistent and such a plugger.

It is said bv our professors that a task is already half accomplished if one ap- proaches it in the proper frame of mind, not grumbling but ready to make the best of it. If this is the case, John ' s success in life is already more than half assured, for there is nothing he will not tackle and he is modest withal. John comes from a famous family of athletes in Lvnn, and the family escutcheon has shone the more brightly since Boston College wel- comed him to the Heights, in Freshman. Almost before we had a chance to know him well enough to borrow money from him. he had made the varsity baseball team, and the way he covered second base drew much favorable comment from the Boston press. Although not very large in stature, he swings a heavy bat and has saved many a game with a timely hit. But John considers other things beside becoming a second Ty Cobb, and spends several hours each day with his music. The piano is his forte and strains from Beethoven and Chopin daily entertain his neighbors in Lynn. In this age of jazz, he is to be commended for adhering to that age which cannot wither nor time stale ... .the old classical music. Those who were in his class in Sophomore still re- member his great stand for freedom of speech when he was prevented from talking as fast as he could. Although we cannot speak from experience, as Lynn is too far away, rumor has it that John is quite a social light in the Shoe Town, lending his sunny presence to most of the fashionable dances, and in all, cutting quite a figure in his home town. You may easily imagine that being an athlete, musi- cian and somewhat of a social lion, John never finds time to be bored, and consequently is a most interesting chap himself. Long Live John!

The fact that this has been his policy throughout his course has landed him among the top- notchers of the class in scholastic stand- ing. In spite of the fact that he is es- sentially a seeker after the truth, he is not what is known as a grind, for he filled the position of centre on the class football team in Sophomore and Junior years very capably and aggressively. Since there was no game for the team in Senior year, Charlie gamboled around the Dorchester sand-lots with the Tigers. Class baseball claimed him in Sopho- more, but he was too busy writing for the Heights during the spring of Junior and Senior years to grace the diamond. But Charlie has one fault; he is a skeptic in affaires de coeur, and always demands demonstration, when a few words to the wise should be sufficient. He was too logical for his more easy-going companions when he reminded them that rules of logic, if applied to some things which otherwise would be perfect, are apt to take the joy out of life. However this same cruel logic stood him in good stead in the Fulton De- bating Society, when with seeming nonchalance he would confound his opponent by bringing him back to earth with a few quotations from Philosophy and even Scrip- ture. Some of his energy has been utilized by the Sub Turri for the History of the Class of ' 22 was compiled by him during the few spare momnts of his busy Sen- ior year. During the summer vacation, Charlie works in one of Boston ' s chief banking houses and will probably use his experience and talents with remunerative results in the years to come. Maybe he will endow a few buildings; but, money or no money, he will always be remembered as a good student and a good fellow. Page forty-one JAMES H. COLLINS 381 Pond Ave., Brookline, Mass.

Father Murphy ' s A Day Lost brought to light in no uncer- tain manner his histrionic ability. The Glee Club appreciated his faithful, worthy services. The cinder path knew his tread. But the Fulton Room will never forget his burning orations. Remember Jim ' s scathing rebuke to elastic state divorce laws before the society? A tear of shame appeared in the eye of the sombre Webster overhead, and Demosthenes clutched at his throat. Then there was the bitter attack upon those who would commer- cialize soliciting advertisements for the college play. Recall the picture of Mr. Collins rising in class meeting, all ablaze with righteous wrath and indignation, finger uplifted in scorn, to remark: I wish to take odds with the previous speak- er and the retort, What odds will you give? ' One suspects Jim of having read Chesterton some time or other. Upon hear- ing an unusually striking statement he would repeat it several times carefully. Then, that ' s a paradox, isn ' t it? It seemed to be the only problem Jim could not solve with his ever ready little red dictionary. Jim believes in righteousness in everv dealing. He never has hesitated to speak his mind, and is a fitting model of determination. Here is the man who will grit his teeth and win. We only await his victories. Fare- well Jim. a fitting model of Cardinal Newman ' s de- scription of the ideal gentleman. Good fdrlimc and be assured of our fondest wishes. TIMOTHY W. COLLINS 87 Endicott Ave.. Revere, Mass.

We have many summer devotees of Re vere Beach among the class but above you see our lone winter admirer of that fam- ous resort. None other than the genial, smiling Pinkey the pride of Revere and the idol of Fr. Mellyn ' s class in Pedagogi- cal Research. The most certain thing about Timmy was the uncertainty of his arrivals. He spent quite a bit of his time in class instructing our honest treas- urer in the arts and wiles of women, but such information was entirely unneces- sary according to Pinkey ' s close friend Smiling Gal. Tim is one of the calm- est members of our class, he has stuck to his task unflinchingly and no exam however important, ever caused him serious alarm. With nonchalant air harm- onized with earnest effort, Tim has worked hard for every class activity and his ever smiling countenance has been a source of inspiration to us all. He is a loyal member of the B. C. — K. of C. Club and of the Revere B. C. Club. He has devoted most of his time while at the college to the study of Pedagogy and while some have predicted that he has hired a room in that little red brick building across the way, yet others have him pictured as an embryonic Blackstone, but we know he is going to be a school teacher. If Tim ' s pupils enjoy him as much as we have during his .stay at the Heights, we are sure that he will be the most wonderful pedagogue of the century. Page forty-three JAMES J.

When he. for the last time, turns for the last look upon Boston College that great, gray, memory-ivied tower will have lost the presence of its truest heart. Jim, your devotion and unselfishness makes us ashamed of our ambitions. The comforting thought that we know you, makes us despise the egotism of others. You have sought no glory, but we are aware that highest honor must be deeded to you. When Jim first came to the Heights he unassumingly donned the moleskins and went out for the squad. As a gritty, powerful line man he had no peer that season, and in consequence, is one of the owners of that priceless Old Gold B for football. Then came the war and Jim ' s friends found one day that he had gone. . . .to the na T. In that branch his innate qualities of manliness and leadership were soon discovered and after due preparation he was commissioned an Ensign. He was put in conimanJ of a submarine chaser and ordered to patrol the stas off the rocky Maine coast. When it was all over ne put his uniform away, a uniform stained, not by brushing against roll- top desks but by the spume of the northern sea. Then he came back to college. This time he went in for poetry. No Stylus man has ever displayed the purity of style that is found in the quatrains that he has produced. They exhibit a remarkable depth of feeling, and what is more they disclose that power giv- en to so few, of charming the glory of a whole crea- tion into one, lone, flowering word. Enough of his works. A greater critic is needed to praise him. As a man, Jim was an ideal. His deportment was calm and courtly, his manner jovial, yet firm and just. He can be expressed best in the words of Watterson, ' A Gentloman. suh. :holf JOHN F. CONNORS 386 Harvard St. Cambridge, Mass.

Offering for your admiring glances and certain approval the idol of Harvard Square, John of the clan Connors — that modest and humorous gentleman who graces our midst in this collection of tin- types. John, perhaps, will be the only person in this series of sketches to escape the eyes of the police inspectors, for John is determined that he will, by constant and unflinching attention to duty, merit the praise of his fellow Twenty -twos. John knows every inch, and every char- acter of note in the University section of his town, and takes great pleasure in his clever and amusing impersonations of those many peculiar characters who flit about the above mentioned square. He is the only member of the Class who has mastered the Chinese tongue, which achievement he has accomplished through his polyglot acquaintances in Cambridge. Need we give more proof of his charming person than to mention that he has a friend in every race that attends the college of the Crimson? The Department of Agriculture claims John as one of the most efficient chasers in the corn borer campaign. Of course, the war on these pests must cease when shady orchards and luscious fruit abound, as Job knows and reluctantly admits. The study of the rural inhabitants and his consequent mimicking of their drawl- ing voices has been the cause of many invitations to John, for East Boston parlors have seldom resounded with that rustic twang which he masters so well. As an embryo pedagogue, his class room success ai ' gurs well for the future Professor Connors. He seenT- to be inclined toward this profession, and certainly wil ' be a perfect character in his role. The class bestow every good wish on him and hopes t hat in after life his presence in the contests will be as productive as his friendship with us all. JOHN JOSEPH CONSODINE 96 Day St..

He ministers to all our wants in true Mellen ' s Food style. In fact John called the Senior Banquet a failure be- cause of the dearth of Mellen ' s. John wishes us to correct our first statement for he savs no one could be a minister and live in Jamaica Plain. In this we agree with him and add that no one who took part in so many Boston College activities could be a minister. To do John full justice the above named activities should be written in Latin and posted in the Fulton Room as an incentive to ambitious Freshmen. To hitch your wagon to a star was taken serioush energetic classmate. Witness his attachment to H. Foley. There were few activities but what merited John ' s full-heaited support. Of course John did not play Varsity football, for by nature he is an indoor sport lover, and in this line he excels. The Marquette and Fulton have ' been enlivened many times by his sport- ing proclivities. As Business Manager of the Stylus he gained the most enviable reputation as an aggressive and energetic executive. The results of his efforts have swelled the coffers of the Stylus to the bursting point. With the coming of his maturity we are sure that the qualities which we see in the making will ensure a suc- cessful business career. bv our loquacious JOHN FRANCIS CRAIG 125 Bartlett St., Quincy, Mass.

But that is only in keeping with the scholarly reputation of his fair city, for Quincy is noted for the good students it sends to Boston College. In addition, however, John carries a perpetual smile and a note-book. The smile is part of his natural disposition to gayety and is to be expected with a round cherubic coun- tenance, but the note-book who can explain that? John blushingly admits its possession. The first jottings were recorded in Greenwich village following the second football victory over Yale. And the habit persevered. Three quar- ters of Europe is minutely described in the series of little books. Possibly John intends to write an autobiography some day. But when quizzed on the why and wherefore of this passion for notation he merely smiles and smiles. Responding to Father Dore ' s travel talks John was one of the four Juniors to see Europe in a summer. And what they didn ' t see, says John was not worth seeing. Picture Johnnie arrayed in a dress suit and hiring a hack to visit the Vatican for an audience with the Pope. Fact. It ' s all in the notebook. Johnnie was elected to the office of Secretary of the Fulton after a short half year of membership, which proves his capability in the eyes of the upper classmen. He is diminutive, but is never overlooked because of stature. His presence radiates the joy of valuable com- panionship to all his associates. We have formed a firm trust in his abilities and are assured that they will bring him fruit a hundred-fold when the walls of B. C. are left behind. With no doubt as to his future years, we say au revoir to our friend Johnnie. To whatever point of the compass he may go, men will say, There goes a man of worth. Page forty-seven HENRY M.

Four short years ago, a tall, slim kind- ly looking youth could have heen seen emerging from his home in Salem, Mass., facing the whole world boldly, looking bravely before him, going forth to seek fame and fortune in a foreign land. Dur- ing that same year a tall, slim, kindly looking youth was seen striding easily up the gravel path that leads to wisdom, and in the Fall of 1918 Mr. Henry Cunney enrolled as a student at Boston College. It was the same fellow all the time.... did you guess it? Congratulations, Sher- lock! Henry graduated from Salem High School where he shone both in athletic and scholastic fields. As a first baseman he had no peer in scholastic circles, while in his studies he always ranked among the leaders. Henry declined to take part in athletics at the Heights, but he continued his excellent work along scholastic lines. Although he seldom raised his voice in class he always man- aged to place his name among the honor students. During his Junior year Henry roused the natives of Salem body with his stirring speeches relative to the impera- tive needs of Boston College. This was at the time when our Alma Mater sent her eagles out over the land in search of two million dollars in ten days. As a ■Freshman, Henry distinguished himself as a rival of John McCormack. His clear resonant tenor proved a great asset to the College Glee Club. We don ' t think Henry will be Mayor of Salem, he is far too modest. But we do know that whatever walk of life he chooses he will be successful, for dur- ing his four years at the Heights, he has evinced all those qualities necessary for success. Going on then, Cunn, in your own inimitable way, ou cannot lose. , May your days be long and happy.

The image aiExed to this page is that of one the younger set of the class of ' 22, for 1901 is quite a late start for a mature Senior in this galaxy of intellects. However, the younger a man attains his laurels, the more rapidly he must have absorbed his learning, which signifies brains in quantity. Lawrence is characterized by silence and study, and with these two as com- panions he has topped all mental hur- dles in the curriculum. But, it must be added, an escape from intellectual achieve- ments would be very hard with Bill Roche as a train companion from their mutual home town. Being a member from Quincy, he is marked by that gran- ite-like stability of nature. As an officer of the B. C. Club in that distant vil- lage, he has shown efficiency as a leader. Baseball in South Quincy knows him as first sacker of worth, for the Mo- hicans and Town Team have him on their list of stars. We regret that we can- not show the records of the above clubs. We are further informed by his leg- ion of Quincy admirers that he has strutted over the stage for parish theatricals many times of late. Law- rence no doubt will continue on his earnest and am- bitious way. He may not become a fiery orator, but in those pursuits of the more subdued type, he will be pre-eminent. May he advance steadily on the road to success. CHARLES ARTHUR CUSICK 89 Radcliffe St., Dorchester, Mass.

Rockefeller, collectively, separately or in the principle parts of speech. Art was a member of the Intercollegiate Debating team which covered old B. C. with glory by emerging the victor over Fordham in a closely contested, heated discussion. The dilemmas presented and his logical syllogistic answers caused the debaters from New York to appear non-plussed and all-at-sea. It was the same way in oratorical contests or declamation competition. Art, with his convincing arguments and persuasive appeals was certain to be num- bered among the victorious few. Art, as he was knowTi and called by his many friends and admirers, is the silver-tongued orator of Marquette and Fidton fame. Art could argue and , harangue on any and every subject, from a pekinese JSo? C warbler to a scientific treatise on Wby are Soup-Tour- f an Sr ' ists? We can tell you no more about our classmate. Behold, at the top of the page, a list of his activities, es- tablished, promulgated, advertised and censored by Arthur himself. Far be it for us to try to say in better language, anything that a fellow does who has such a pretentions list of indoor sports as that. Gaze on it and flop off the chair, reader. We did. How come. Art, you didn ' t tell Vni the prizes you copped in the divan league? Page fifty CHARLES FRANCIS DALEY 36 Roseclair St., Dorchester, Mass.

Four years ago Boston Latin sent to us one of her ablest stars, in the person of Charles Francis Daley, and here on the Heights he has added great glory to her name. Charlie is a wiz, in mathematics, chemistry and pool. The profession of Chemical Engineering will be greatly en- riched by a good man and a scholar when Charlie graduates, summa cum laude, from Tech, where he has decided to spend a few more years in thoughtful study. Not only is he a student in the full sense of the word, but he is also a good fellow, and we may add that those two terms are not synonymous by any means. He has gained this title, however, because many a difficult passage in Latin or Greek, or many a tough one in physics has been made very clear by his lucid explanations. Besides being a star in everything pertaining to studies this boy can work wonders with a cue as if it were a fairy wand, and the way he drops balls in the pockets is a treat to see. If you would like evidence of this just invite him down to a pool parlor and play stickers with him. Perhaps he gets this way from physics, but a straight run of fifteen from the break is nothing exceptional in this young shark ' s experience. In work or play he al- ways has his eye on the ball. The Class of ' 22 puts great faith in you Charlie, and expects big things from you, and not without reas- on, for manifesting such a spirit as you have shown during your four years here, that elusive phantom, suc- cess, is bound to come your way. You have made the most of your opportunities here and we entertain no fear for your future. Good luck to you. FRANCIS X. DALY o20 Dudley Street, Roxbury, Mass.

The distance home, howev- er, does not cause his early departure, for one or other of his various activities on the Heights always keeps him busy. You can ' t hear Frank work vet the results show that he is one of the most tireless and earnest workers of the Class of ' 22. Frank is distinguished in many ways. Many members of our Class boast that they obtained free passage to New Haven or to New York, but to Frank belongs the honor of having worked his way to Europe. With Al Chapman Nat Hasenfus, and John Craig, he travelled through the country of Europe in the summer months of his Junior year. Can any of the rest boast of such a supplement to our education? Again there are only two men in our class who have belonged to that great renowned society Fulton. for four years. One of them is Frank. And then when he steps out on the floor at one of the B. C. dances how the hearts of the fair ones flutter! How they envy that permanent brown marcelle! Watch out. Fran ' - the opposite sex, though they may he nice, are merci- less. However, we won ' t have to worry much about Frank, for those steady modest ways which evidenced them- selves so much in college life will carry him throu ! almost any storm that we frail humans must encounter In closing, we won ' t say good bye rather .... see you later, Frank.

And the birds and the bees and the bimbos cried out, Carroll Deady and W. L. Douglas. Carroll comes all the way from his town on the steam cars every day. He had a late permit but never used it. But he did miss a few days, that is whole days, and the Brockton Fair, the greatest display of amusement and in- struction on the face of the earth was the causa ultima. You couldn ' t blame Car- roll for stopping off to see such a treat. It only came to town once a year and he could go to B. C. any day he wanted. That ' s good logic. And he was noted for his complete and concise knowledge of that subject. In fact that was the mark of distinction which accompanied him in his course through these halls. He was of the type of brilliant scholar that one seldom meets in college and here he stood out as an oasis in a desert. You remember the old song, Nobody knows where the old inan goes? A lot of people said that of him but he only smiled and went his way. His courr was for home and his books and little did he care what people said. For he knew where he was going and what he was going to do when he got there. And who can say but that he gath- ered more in the vineyard of study than the periodic laborer and wanderer. Early in his Sophomore year he startled all by wresting from the grasp of the entire school a vivid victory earned by his facile pen and an- alytical mind. And remember, everyone, this was only his modest beginning. By the time he reached Senior he had garnered for himself all the knowledge that it was possible to attain in four short years. And this is the heritage that Brockton has received from the laps of the gods. ' Tis said to be hard for an eminent man to reach the heights of success in his native land but as the years roll on the people needs must rise and ac- claim this brilliant youth and spread broadcast the fame that will be justly his.

We take great pleasure in introducing Gerry Deeley from B. C. High, vintage of 1918. Gerry entered upon his college career with a gusto, but he hearkened to the call of the pigskin and for two years he was a member of our football squad. And it ' s down in the little black book that he was a handy man to have around. He decided to keep in trim all year round so he went out for the track team. His specialty was the long distance and he flew right along. Gerry joined the cross- country squad and it is true that he was never lost on his hill and dale ramblings as he always trailed after him a thin line of string so he might retrace his steps. You see Gerry read his mythology. Anyway he was one of the mainstays of the steeplechasers and made a fine name for himself. During his course he did a hitch with the Marines and had a fine chance to see the world through a porthole but after a while he decided he could see much more on the beach, and at less inconvenience. So he returned to school and lapped such a famous runner as Joie Studies several times. Like the proverbial violet, Gerry hardly sjjoke unless called on but he then proceeded to give a splendid account of himself. Frankie Carron and he had a set of signals for conveying knowledge to one another that was never discovered. Gerry was also a member of the famous Greek Re- search Club but he did not enlist here. . . .he was draft- ed. However he survived and maintains he knows more Greek words now than he ever did before. He has been popular with the gang and in the chemical anal- ysis of good fellowship it ' s a pretty good thing to find. When he gets his sheepskin and steps from the Gothic Buildings he will go forth with sufficient knowledge, and abilily to break the tape, a winner, no matter whatj the event.

He is that quiet. We were often admonished in youth by fond par- ents to say little, listen, and learn. That advice being sound, as we have discovered we come to the conclusion that Jim is a veritable store house of learning. What an amazing amount of Latin, Greek and philosophical knowledge must be at his instant command. And how lightly he carries the weight of such learning with his smiling, impeturable manner. He reminds you of the silent but ever pres- ent man of mystery in a play, who startles you in the fourth act with the sol- ution of the whole problem at hand. Still the silent part in the play is not without its advantages. Not only did Jim escape Father Keating ' s penmanship punishments for loquacious students but he seems to have escaped practically every class quiz and oral repetition. His voice was mute but his pen was ac- tive for James has never made himself conspicuous even by low marks. It goes without saying that Jim is a patriot, hav- ing been born and bred in the shadow of Bunker Hill. Farewell Jim, we know you will always uphold the prestige and principles of Boston College and we are positive of you ' re distinguishing yourself, because you are assuredly adjudged by one and all as a worthy rep- resentative of the Class of 1922.

Dinger Dolan, the only member of the Senior Class with a brush on his up- per lip, a misplaced eyebrow, call it what you will; some have even gone so far as to call it a moustache, but they were sure- ly not his classmates. It was cause of much speculation during the Senior year when Dinger was appointed as Chairman of the Clean Up Committee, whether or not the presence of the brush had any- thing to do with his being selected for the position. At any rate he was differ- ent, and on that account, deserves credit. The varsity B was awarded to Dinger for his work on the track and the cap- taincy of the cross-country team came as a fitting reward for his achievements during four years ' competition. But strange as it may seem, the dance floor was as much his native sphere as the cinder track and his stately manner of dancing was a thing of wonder. No B. C. dance was complete without his dignified yet gra- cious presence, and it was this combination of athletic achievement with those of a social nature that so en- deared him to the fair collegians of Simmons and B. U. Indeed, he was an authority on social etiquette among his own classmates, giving practical advice on how to go about it. A persevering worker whether in his studies, in ath- letics or in his social achievements, Dinger is of the stuff that makes winners and no matter how hard the battle you will find him out in front, ficlitin;: on to VICTORY.

Joe hails from Jamaica Plain, one of the suburbs of Boston, recognized as the Athens of the Hub city. Joe is not mayor of the hamlet, but his back yard borders on that of the great and only Hon. James M. Curley, Mayor of Boston. During the recent mayoralty campaign, Joe was a faithful worker and advocator of his next door neighbor, and we expect to see his faithful efforts re- warded with a prominent public position immediately after graduation. Joe introduced himself into the Class of ' 22 at the beginning of Sophomore, and immediately his sunny disposition and true friendship portrayed him as a worthy addition to the greatest Class. Joe ' s loyalty and true college spirit emblazoned him as a real college man, one who never cringes before difficutlies encountered, however great. Joe was ever present in the athletic limelight, not as a participant of any out- door or indoor sport, but as a loyal rooter for his Alma Mater ' s teams. Joe ac- regime the club had a very successful year. Joe was ever present in the athletic limelight, not as a participant of any outdoor or indoor sport, but as a loyal rooter for his Alma Mater ' s teams. Joe ac- companied the football team to West Point, New Hav- en and New York and would willingly have gone to sunny Texas with our gridiron warriors if he could have borrowed the necessary wherewithal to ma ke the trip. In his Junior year, Joe was unanimously elected Pres- ident of the West Roxbury B. C. Club and under his regime the club had a very successful year. We do not know what path Dame Fortune has cut out for him but we are positive Joe will follow along the chosen path with characteristic assiduity and diligence until, at the end of the trail, he will sit basking in the warm sunlight of success and wait for the rest of us to catch up with him. Good luck, Joe, may your years be as happy as the memory you leave with us. Page fifty-seven JAMES HENRY DOYLE, JR. 2S9 Walnut Ave., Roxbury, Mass. Bom August 5, 1900.

Nine hundred and ninety nine depend On what the world sees in you; But the thousandth man will stand your friend With the whole round world agin you. Kipling ' s thousandth man is ably represented by the smiling, bashful Bishop, the idol of the Philomatheia, and the unsung hero of every football game that B. C. has played within the last four years. Jim is the epitome of true modesty and when you become acquainted with his quiet unassuming manner you are at first compelled to interest and then you join us all in admiration. To our Class the Bishop gave the benefit of his keen intellect, his strong character and noble ideals during the past four years and under his leader- ship we have become the greatest class of Old Maroon and Gold. He is our earnest leader not only in the simplest routine of daily usefulness but under the spell of his vigilant wisdom and strong effort we have be- come a creative power of worth, happiness and beauty. The Bishop never forgot that his college was the nursery of principle and honor and after our second great victory over Yale at New Haven, a Yale man com- menting on the Bishop ' s playing said, A fighter and a gentleman and what a true word picture he painted of our leader. He did not covet honor and distinction yet he received them both.

Emperor Regent of the latter day middle distance runners, holder of the world ' s record for the 500, contender for America in the Olympic games, anchor man on the fastest relay team ever to represent Boston College, winner of a solid ton of silver cups, med- als, watches and what-not, record man on a thousand tracks, prince of good fel- lows and athlete extraordinary — James Warren Jalce Driscoll of Boston Col- lege. For four years he has been the fleetest Eagle on the Heights, the mercur- ial Nemesis who has thrown fear and wonderment into the best of them and has shown his retreating heels to a string of title contenders famous the world over and has passed them, not singly, but in flocks, bunches and bevies. In his front parlor over in Charlestown he has the Archbishop Hayes trophy and nothing else, for there is no more space in the room where that mass of wrought silver reposes. The city has offered Mechanics Hall and the Arena as show places for his trophies, but Jake, with that famous modesty de- clines and fades from the scene with the original Dris- coll smile beaming. If Jake could not run a step his smile would make his career a success. His popularity among his mates is well testified to by his landslide to victory in the elections for the President of the Athletic Association. The Senior Banquet was a well to be remembered ova- tion to Jake. And after being accorded the great- est honor that Boston College ever gave to an athlete, he remained unspoiled and unsullied by the wine of success. We are forced to give an end to our commend- ation of our friend because of the limitation of space. His record will be found upon other pages. We can but say in conclusion that we, as a class, are proud to be graduated with Jake. Page fifty-nine WILLIAM RAYMOND DRUGAN 217 ' ernon St., Wakefield, Mass. Born November 21, 1901.

We have with us Wallace Reid ' Dru- gan, the Adonis of the class. His ac- tions speak more loudly than his words and this is saying much when one con- siders that Ray is never backward in ex- pressing his opinion. It is no exaggeration to say that he is one of the most popular members of the class. As Secretary of the Senior Class he never shirk- ed his duties in the line of correspondence, being frequently seen in the morn- ing with a paper cutter in his hand ready to examine all incoming mail. Ray made quite a reputation while at Wakefield High as a track star and upon reaching the Heights continued the good work by scoring many points in the dash, broad-jump, and discus. He looked like a typical old Roman at this latter sport and many a feminine heart skipped a beat at beholding him at action. Indeed, the exercise gained from football and track was what put him in condi- tion to wage his irresistible social campaign during the cold winter months. This young man boasts that since Freshman year he has not eaten one Sunday dinner at his own house and we all know that he didn ' t eat at a restaurant. This may be truly termed the height of affability.... to smile one ' s way consecutively into so many dinin g- rooms. Yes, Ray has such a frank, engaging smile it is easy to see how he will make his way in this hum- drum world. Wholesome and well-developed as he is, |)hysically, spiritually and mentally, Ray is fully pre- pared to make a name for himself. PAUL R. DUFFLY 15 Spencer St., Dorchester, Mass. Born July 4, 1900.

Herr Du Bois-Reymond waxed great by promulgating the seven enigmas of the world. Du Bois was an eminent scien- tist but we can ' t say that his enumera- tion was complete, he left out Paul DufBy. Duff is the most unfathomable membe r of the whole class. A remark emitted by him may be carried to the laboratory, dis- sected, analyzed, examined under the mi- croscope, and reduced to its ultimate causes — yet it still remains a mystery Duff, more efficient in sarcasm and irony than Sophocles, with a superficial aspect of seriousness and sincerity, can deceive even the most sceptical of mortals. Listening to him play with some innocent victim is an entertainment extraordinary. We do enjoy Duff. Slightly cynical, exceedingly witty, handsome and popular, Paul affords a most pleasurable acquaintance. Paul ' s social career resembles that of a Van Der Puyst, a Whitney, or even Dinger Dolan. No function at the Copley, Somer- set or Vendome rated publicity in the society columns without Duff ' and his hired tux among those pres- ent. His album of female acquaintances far surpasses an art gallery of Mack Sennet ' s comliest, all of whom describe him as the strong, handsome boy. Duff is our Vice President and one of the best, co- operating with Jim Doyle to put the class of ' 22 far in the lead of all others. Paul also excels in debate and literature, being one of the foremost speakers of the Fulton, and a dependable scribe to the Heights. In fact, Paul is willing to try anything and he usually makes a success of it. That ' s why we like him and sol- icit his company.

To be a candidate for any athletic team for four years without success and still to continue to strive for a position on that team is certainly to exhibit a true spirit of perseverance. Bill Elbery for four years worked for a position on the B. C. baseball and foot- ball teams and although each year he failed to make a position on either team, the call for candidates the following year always found him with spirit undaunted in there trying his best. Bill deserves great credit for his grit and determiiui- tion. At Boston College High Bill starred in almost every branch of sport and came to the Heights in a blaze of glory. He was chosen captain of the football team in his Senior year at high school and was one of the best quarterbacks in school football. He also played in the outfield on the baseball team and was able to run a fast 300. Add to this the fact that he was president of the Senior class in high school and you can see that Bill was some boy. Bill ' s career has certainly been one to be proud of. He seems to be a born leader and the fact that he joined the Fulton during his last year leads us to believe that Bill is trying to get practice in speaking for future use in the political game. It is rumored that he is to be a candidate for senator from Brighton at the next election. If Bill follows up this walk in life we feel confident concern- ing his future for he has always shown aptitude along those lines. Keep on striving Bill, striving and fighting and soon, sooner than most of us, success will be within your grasp and then look back over the dim half-forgotten years and see with the light of victory in your eyes, how- glorious was the struggle, how wonderful ihc iirize. , ' ' - Page sixty-two ARTHUR L.

Art has two bitter enemies, the Goo Gods and those that attack the Church. Now we see him disputing the rights of the new police force, then we find him attacking and demanding retraction at public meeting from a class of bigots who are plotting against the Church. One day the Reverend Prefect of Discipline said to me, He is a true defender of the Faith. Bob. . . .as we usually call him. . is the leader of the radicals at the college, disputing every decision and decree. With fiery oratory he defends his ideals and fights on principle as well as for prin- ciple. He is a loyal supporter of every college activity. How well many of us remember Bob at New Haven the second time we beat Yale at football. In Philosophy he has few equals and none surpass him. In the Chem laboratory he stands prereminently alone, thus as a student he is one of the best we have. Internal action often manifests itself externally. Hence, the busy feet of Art ' s crowded thoughts have trampled to death the luxuriant foliage that was his in those unlettered days at English High School. As he mastered subject af- ter subject his forelocks became more and more es- tranged from his eyebrows. We venture the thought that all lofty peaks are said to be bald. What does the future hold? If opportunities come in proportion to his abilities, Arthur ' s future will be rich in accomplishments. But, whatever his occupa- tion, the oppressed will always find in him a champion.

Dorchester can well be proud of Jim Fahey as Boston College is proud of him. The class of ' 22 feels honored to think that Jim was one of their number. Al- though he never partook of any of the college activities, Jim can be considered as one of the biggest men in the class. He was under a great hardship as he worked nights for the Western Electric. It was due to this fact that he was unable to give any attention to debating and oth- er activities. We might venture to pre- dict that if Jim had entered these fields he would have won many prizes. Jim joined our class in Soph, fresh from the big war. This boy played a big part in putting an end to Germany ' s submarine warfare as a sailor in Uncle Sam ' s navy. He was a cook and from what we hear he always managed to keep the boys in good condition. Throughout his college career Jim has shown a remarkable aptitude for learning. His studies never seemed to come hard to him and he was always well up among the leaders. Jim came into his own however in his Senior year. The Dante class brought to light his wonderfully developed intellect. From his knowledge of Latin and French he studied Dante in its original form, Italian, in order to appreciate the real beauty of the works of this medieval poet. His great- est fault perhaps is his inseparable companionship with Tierney and Scully. These three are always to be found together. It wouldn ' t surprise us if the three took up business together, perhaps in some far off country.... Cuba. We hear that Jim intends to lour Europe next summer. Presumably he intends to pursue Dante to his native haunts and discover therein the secrets for the wonderful works of this man. We expect great things from you. ,lim. and we feel .sure wc won ' t lie dis:i|ipoiiiled. WILLIAM JOSEPH FAHEY 167 Manning St., Hudson, Mass. Born November 29, 1899 ' Hudson High School; Freshman year at Holy Cross ; Fulton 4 ; Promoter League of Sacred Heart 4; Sodality 1, 2. 3, 4. Bill went to Holy Cros.s for a ynar and a half, but found the boarding school life tedious. His desire to show the city boys what a fellow ffom far off Hudson could do led him to make the long trip to Boston every day. Hudson may rest easy if it has more citizens of Bill ' s stamp. For he is a rare combination of nat- ural ability and harmonious development. Bill ' s place was always at the head of the class. But he has one weakness; for when in top form, Bill could devise more philosophic difiSculties during the lunch period than his classmates could answer in twice that time. His arguments were as cold and difficult to answer as his smile was warm and cultivating. You can be sure that Bill made the most of his natural gifts when debat- ing in the Fulton. Rarely if ever was the decision awarded to his opponents. Bill sported the gold buttons and crimson uniform of a bell-hopper in a New Jersey Hotel during the summer vacations and according to McDermott, who was wont to loaf in said summer resort. Bill was not very backward in thrust- ing forth the ever-ready palm for the welcome tips. We often wondered where Bill obtained his ever-present roll. Now we know. That he will make a success of his life there can be no doubt, for his perseverance, hard work, keen insight and kindly nature will win for him the most precious things in life. sixty-five EUGENE JOSEPH FANNING 38 State St., East Milton, Mass.

And, gentle read- er, there must have been something i- what our professor said, for, strange as it may seem, every time I think of Gene I think of Quincy granite. The granite that blooms down in Quincy, you know, is thick, solid, dense and rough, but not our Gene. No....lve possesses those other qualities of Quincv granite, integ- rity, honesty and an enviable reputation. Now that we ' ve thrown our little bouquet let us heave our Gaelic confetti. Honestly, fellows, considering Gene ' s un-apollo-like countenance, his dishevelled hair and his sleepy demeanor, would you ever think that he would acquire a real honest-to-goodness affinity? No? Well, he has had one during the four years he ' s been with us. Who is she? Oh boys! A colleen we all love.... Ireland. Yes, Ireland has been Gene ' s own little affinity in all the years we have known him. Night or day, in class or out, his favor- ite topic is Ireland. If you are interested in the A. A. R. I. R., the F. I. F., Sinn Fein, A. 0. H., etc., ask Gene, he knows (as many an earache will testify . Gene has also attained enviable heights in the col- lege debating societies, his earnest work having been rewarded bv his election as vice-president of the Ful- ton Debating Society. And after the ball is over, Gene, where will we find you? When commencement week has faded a bit in your memory, and college life is but a faint recol- lection, what will you be doing?

He is also one of the main- stays of the varsity dancing team and he was ever in his glory when he could demonstrate some new eccentric dance step. Bun ' s social brilliance however outshines all else. His repeated appearance at dance lands have aroused our extreme interest, not only because he has cut a decided figure while engaged in tripping the light fantastic, but also because he has a decided manner in becoming acquainted with the restless sex. We are told that this is a marked characteristic of Bun in his home town, and we are sure that this tendency will continue to make friends for him through his life. Pessimism has one of the most violent adversaries in the bull dog personage of Bunny. Optimism is clearly personified in our sorrel - topped happy man and his presence has always created an atmosphere of good cheer. At times Bunny became serious and after an inter- esting lecture he would formulate a series of objections to try on his friends. He always brought us right down to the prime matter of things whence we had no escape. In his early academic career, Bun proved himself a mathematician of worth. It came natural to Bunny, so natural that he never worried over im- pending or the wrath of sputtering professors. Go to it, Bunny. If you exhibit the same punch in future life as you have shown in your four years here you ' ll certainly get ahead. Your irresistible, smiling countenance will be sadly missed around the campus next year. WORR.V_flBan- rtNO ul Page sixty-seven FrxANCIS JOSEPH FLYNN ■J 10 High St., Bridgewater, Mass.

Frank is Bridgewater ' s representative at the Heights and despite the fact that Bridgewater is situated at the further end of the Cape, Frank manages to make the trip each day and arrive on time. We first knew him as a bugler in our fam- ous S. A. T. C. His blasting notes awak- ened us in the morning, called us to meals and warned us of the time to retire. Be- ing a bugler in the army and still being popular wath one ' s mates is, to say the least, quite difficult, but little Frankie man- aged this very well. After the signing of the Armistice, he enrolled as an honest-to-goodness frosh and during his whole career he continued to entertain us with his bugle. For four years he has played in the college band. In recognition of his ability he was made band master in his Junior year and for two years he performed his duties in this position to perfection. Frank has worked hard for the band and the orchestra and deserves much credit for B. C. success in the musical world. lien not busy blowing his horn he keeps his lips moving by annoying the class with his sage remarks. He and Steve Velardo were wont to have a veritable battle of words in Psy- chology class. Possessor of a pleasing personality and of a temperament not easily forgotten, he will remain fixed in our memories as the representative of Bridge- water. A good natured and capable student, and an amiable acquaintance, Bridgewater may well be proud of him we are. LEO BARRY FLYNN 25 Crosby St., Lawrence, Mass. Born July 4, 1900. B. C.

Porky . . . The world knows nothing of its greatest men. One of our professors has continually remarked, We have much to be thank- ful for. Now as we come to the point of saying farewell to one another we take Porkv ' s hand and again utter the same words. Leo has been one of the best fel- lows ever to graduate from old B. C. Smiling, good natured, entertaining, and popular with all, Leo is the essence of optimism. Ever standing well in his studies yet he found time to develop the physical man. His modesty has rather checked his ambition to strive for varsity honors but everyone who has watched him carry on on the gridiron will admit his proficiency as an athlete. He is self-reliant and experienced and he surely deserves to have Dame Fortune smile on him in the future as she has done in the past. Porky has been one of the silent members of the class and although he has accomplished many big things, he is the last to speak of them. Few words escape his lips but there is always a smile extending from ear to ear to greet a friend ' s approach. Nor is his fame confined to narrow limits. In the field of philosophical speculation he has often startled us with his radical and original conclusions. In one role, however, we like best to think of Porky. That is his devoted friendship. All through his college career he has been the first to greet us and the last to leave us. And when Porky undertakes the battle of life, he will have the fondest wishes of success from every member of the Class of 1922 to whom he was always the best pal a fellow ever had.

Paul sings a lovely bass, con molu, allegro, pianissimo, and multo deepo. He was also a football play- er but the ardor and exhaustive sweep of Cav ' s Gaelic wars were too much for his constitution. He stepped aside but he took it out on those nice Juniors in the class games. During his confinement on the Heights I he was in for four years) he flashed continuously across the social sky. He appeared in many for- eign places and because of his stately mien, rosy cheeks, and wavy hair, caused many a flutter in said foreign places. Paul, the native son, returned to Dracut, a bucolic suburb of Lowell, and regaled the natives with many thrilling tales of what lay beyond the Alps. Paul is also a diplomat of note and used much of it in conducting the affairs of his club, much to the grat- ification of the natives. Of course he made a great im- pression on the books and in the end was crowned with the laurel wreath. He is a good mixer and during his course made many friends that will stand him in good stead during his bread-winning career. The natives hac h()j)ed that Paul would come home and be Chief Select- man but the Fates seem to decree otherwise. Breath- lessly we await the day when he will take his ])lace be- side the Doctors Mayo. Doctor Bottomly, and the fam- ous Doctor Lorenz. Page seventy HENRY E. FOLEY 316 Warren St., Roxbury, Mass.

He was ready to orate on every and any occasion, sometimes it was unsought, but we shall concede the palm; it was always oratory. Aside from this Henry Elliot was famous for three things. We shall enumerate them in the order of prominence. First of all he was a runner. He ran for everything in sight. In the future, when his grandchildren are clustered about his knee like hairs on a cat, he may whisper, Once upon a time I ran against Jake Driscoll. Satis. Secondly, he chased ads for the Stylus, the play pro- gram, and other student publications. Henry was the best Ad man the Stylus ever had. He got them from the butcher, baker and everyone but an ashman. This is a clear proclamation of efficiency, say we. Thirdly. . . .gentlemen, we are blushing. If you must know, then venture into Roxbury, if you are not fearful, and list the plaints of the heartbroken Roxies. Ah, yes. A head bedecked with curls of the Marcelese variety combined with an ease and grace in a fox-trot that would make the Goddess Terpsichore herself faint, is a proverbial heart crusher. In conclusion, Henry, Twenty-Two congratulates you, an earnest student, a good speaker and a persistent worker. May the future be always as kind as the past ! Vale.

Frank JVlerriwell realized, Daniel Web- ster in the embryo, the quintessence of versatility, and what is paramount, a won- derful fellow, that ' s Tom Foley. Tom can do anything and do it well. He ex- cels in all sports, is foremost in his studies, a powerful orator, a veritable Adonis, and a Barney Oldfield at maneuvering a Ford. Tommy, or T. (his usual appellation) is no relation or does he resemble in size, shape or manner, the much heralded Henry. They both, however, are en- dowed with that Foley argumentative nature. Wherever T. went he precip- itated an argument, in which he was always victorious — he had to be or a riot would have ensued. The Student Council, Peace Without Victory, Ire- land, a Kingdom, and inumerable other subjects were vociferated with gestures by Tommy to bewildered throngs. Tom ' s favorite diversion is baseball where he feat- ures behind the bat. His catching ability was declared by Boston sport sages as the best seen in semi-pro base- ball. Basketball, football, hockey, tennis, swimming, and golf, were mastered by Tommy. Strong as a mod- ern Hercules, with the symmetrical physique of the dis- cus thrower. Tommy was idolized by all. Cl. he was modest. To terminate the characterization of our hero at this juncture would be to deprive him of his greatest hon- ors. Tom is a scholar, brilliant, ambitious, intelligent, assimilating knowledge easily, and disseminating it un- ostentatiously. His thoughts delve into the most ])ro- found philosophical questions, and his propensities are toward the more lofty things in life, evading the mere material. In fact. Tom is a he man. We admire him. V Page seventy-two JOHN JOSEPH FORD 24 Oliver St., Framingham, Mass. Born February 9, 1900. Framingham High School; Framing- ham B. C.

Let us impress upon you, dear read- er, that the Ford pictured above has no relation in common with the celebrated Henry or his universal car. John Jos- eph is no flivver by any means, and is as quiet and reserved as any member of the class, thus distinguishing him from the activity of that well-known car which has a name similar to his. However, like all good Fords he is with you till the last milestone is passed. When the attribute quiet is predicat- ed of John, the term is applied with its full meaning. John has as little to say as a sphinx with lock-jaw. He never disturbs any assemblage with idle words, which renders his company very enjoyable and secures for him countless friends. When Johnny breaks forth in conversation, he alone has the floor for it is un- derstood by his audience that his words have been thoroughly analyzed, re- flected upon, and only uttered out of necessity. We all appreciate John ' s timely remarks and admire his high ideals. John has been an honest manipulator of Charlie Wel- lington ' s doughnuts et al for a couple of years, and his facility in juggling coffee and milk has rendered him a strong competitor for honors with the best of Rector ' s waiters. His pleasing disposition has always been a good appetizer and much of Wellington ' s trade has been due to the afi ability of Johnny Ford. John ' s aspirations as to the future have been con- cealed from the multitude. His high ideals and pleas- ing personality, however, assure for him access to the heights of fame and his energetic nature furnishes him with the power to acquire all that opportunity may pres- ent.

Demosthenes hied himsell to the sea- shore and spoke against the roar of the surging waters. Demosthenes became a human megaphone. Art Frawley attained the same loudness of speech without the aid of water. Art preferred to use the Lynn shores for promenading with some graceful sea-nymph. Art craves orat • of all varieties — most of it is good. How- ever, quality is not the main objective of his speeches — what he thrives on is quantity. Eulogies, harangues, tirades. and dissertations are victims of Art ' s stentorian volubility. Art is a sure cure for insomnia, for his words will rock to sleep the most wide-awake of individuals. For all that, he is one of our best orators and we speak merely in a spirit of envy. Lynn is the favored hamlet of our youthful Cicero, and many a miss glances with admiring eyes at the hastening Arthur, as he speeds to the train in the morning, his hat in his hand, and his ebony locks flowing with the breeze from the steam whistles. Art scorns street cars and, consequently, usually parks himself in a beautiful Locomobile or Simplex with some kind chauffeur on the trip to the train after school. Numberless unoffending autoists have heard Art ' s oratory while driving our hero to the station. Art, however, confines his conversation to propagating the glory of Boston College, so we owe him a lot for publicity. Art can talk himself into anything so we have no fear for his future. We will always recall his sonor- ous voice and his proficiency in s|)eaking, but above all, his friendshi]) and staunch character.

Born September 6, 1896 Boston College High School; Mar- quette 1, 2; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Great was the wonder among the Sen- iors when on the morning of January 30 was seen walking up the college drive a tall, sedate figure, garbed in sombre black, carrying in one hand an awe-in- spiring cane and in the other a brown leather brief-case, the contents of which caused much speculation. The wonder grew as he was observed conversing with the Dean and many were the conjectures as to what was his capacity at the Heights. Someone waggishly surmised it to be about two quarts, and as the stranger really hailed from Medford, this was after all no idle supposition. Dinger Dolan, however, was willing to bet his last nickel that the new arrival was none other than Professor Einstein come to explain to us his theory on relativitv. All doubts as to his identity were dispelled, however, when Mat. Heaphy, late for once in his career, recognized him as John R. Furlong, a former member of the class of ' 19. After treading the halls of Chestnut Hill for two years the call of duty summoned John to do his bit in the late unpleasantness with Kaiser Bill, and he did it with honor to himself and the College. When peace came he entered St. Mary ' s Seminary, Baltimore, but later was forced to leave because of ill-health. So it appears that what was John ' s misfortune was our good luck. We soon discovered his erudition to be profound; all his text books were written in the language of Cicero and Sen- eca. Newton air seems to have agreed with him, and it is the hope of all that in 1972 at our Golden Jubilee, John ' s guiding hand may be present restraining Dan McSweeney within the bounds of rational moderation. ■ 1 k ' Page seventy-five CHARLES CLEMENT GALLAGHER 81 Benton Rd.

When Gal stepped into our Class in Freshman, we saw a blushing, smiling, fair-faced boy. Little did we then know that he was to become the greatest under- graduate supporter of athletics that B. C. ever had. A few weeks after College opened the football team played at West Point and just before the game I saw a lone Freshman stroll across the Plains with a maroon and gold tie, king of them all. smiling Gal. Since then our teams have played all over the East and Gal has never missed a game, always back- ing the team in spirit and with his mon- ey. To fully appreciate Gal you must know him and if you knew him then you would realize how inadequate this picture is. He possesses an inexhaustible supply of energy and ability. As a student he works along in a quiet unassuming way bu is always up with the leaders. He has a hair part that would make an Arrow Collar boy envious and is very proficient in the art of dancing. His familiar figure every summer at Nantasket Beach has made our class famous. Under his guidance the B. C. Club of Somerville has grown and prospered. As a member of Philomatheia Ball committee he worked hard and his efforts were crowned with success. Thus we have only a few of Gal ' s activities and from our knowledge of him we know his future will be indeed bright and with that assurance Farewell ! dear Gal we sigh And may your future pathway lie With Fame that gold can never buy All nestled ' neath a smiling sky.

If we had more friends like him, how much smooth- er life would flow! There ' s not one of us but wishes he had a little of Gar- ber ' s disposition. He is the original don ' t worry kid. Sunburnt mirth is evinced in his every smile. The saddest part of Commencement will be bidding goodbye to Ernest, for he will return to Framingham which he loves so much. Had not Garber devoted so much of his time to making every duty a pleasure, Boston College would have been repres- ented on the Athletic Field by a stella stellarum. In Framingham they date from the year Ernest played end on the football team and second on the base- ball team. Few athletes have had such a promising future. But Garber con- centrated in helping others out of their troubles, and found little time to do what he liked so much to do. . . .to drive a play into tackle or smother the ad- vance. His facial likeness to Caesar has often been noted by his classmates but few know that he spends his summer months posing for Cae- sar. The world famous bust in the Antipodes, claimed by many experts to be the best likeness of the author of veni, vidi, vici, was posed for by Ernest in the summer of 1920. The scholastic activities in which Ernest took part are not all listed above. His modesty prevents him from claiming that activity so necessary for true collegiate life and for which we are grateful to him, and that is his keeness for detecting the silver lining in every cloud no matter how black. We, who have been privileged with his company for four years, consider ourselves extremely for- tunate. We are sure that his characteristics of true fellowship, ready smile, and concentration on essentials, will win for him that which is most valuable in life ... an easy conscience and a full purse. Page seventy-seven THOMAS F. GARRITY 3 Old Bridge Road, Concord Junc- tion. Mass. Born July 2, 1899. Concord High School: Sodalitv 2, 3, 4: Varsity Football 3; Sib Turri 4. Somewhere back in the primary schoo! days we learned of Concord and Lexing- ton. Little did we think that a few years hence we would have the privilege of as- sociating with one of the real descendants of one Thomas F. Garrily. who we are told, was quite instrumental in causing that great victory of our forefathers. In Tom we have a chip of the old block for on that never-to-be-forgotten football team we found Fightin ' Tom living up to the traditions of the Garritys. Tom is a quiet fellow and naturally well liked. As a student he is in a class by himself. We remember the time, when back in Sophomore, most of our trouble concerned Latin and Greek, how prompt- ly Tom would puff up to school, after his long ride and present the Latin com- position for the inspection of his classmates. Then again, Tom, do you re- member the remark of how you wore the royal color with such dignity? The next dav five fellows showed up with purple ties. Sometimes you meet a fellow who persistently sings the praise of his home town. Believing him, his friends journey to the hamlet and ye gods, well.... not so with Tom. Never does he mention his beloved town (when he is eating lunch I but at any other time all one can hear is Concord Junction. He is more or less of a mystery to many, but his intimate friends know him for what he is, a real fellow and a good friend. But even they wonder whether he kept his promise made at Freshman F banquet. Good luck. Tom, follow the principles of your fore- fathers and always remember that there is no such word in the Lexinfrton of vmith as Concord. Page seventy-eight THEOPHILUS J. GEOFFRION 11 Noonan St., Waltham, Mass. Born April 16, 1901. Entered in 1921 from Assumption College ; Fulton 4 ; Sodality 4 ; League of the Sacred Heart 4. It was only this year that he came to us, yet to everybody he immediately be- came an old friend. . . .that ' s how fast Theo works. While at Assumption Theo featured as an actor, debater, cheer-leader, humor- ist, and scholar. If he had been with us for four years we would have enjoyed him in these capacities, but one year is not enough time for a modest youth like Theo to manifest all his talents. It was rumored that he played the part of Shylock with much success. If this is so, Theo must have been a great thes- pian to conceal his generous and kindly self long enough to succeed as Shylock. His humor and magnetic personality caused him always to be surrounded by admiring friends, listening to his wit- ticisms and sage remarks. Theo excelled in Philosophy and his recitations appeased the professor many a time when the rest of us were sadly ignorant of the matter. In forensic contests also did he perform well, showing an abundance of vocabulary and a facility for analyzing arguments accurately. In addition to all these perfections he parted his hair in the middle and had a home-made marcelle-wave. We won ' t say the girls liked it be- cause it ' s none of our business, but we will say that it enhanced the beauty of the class to a great extent. Theo ' s year at the Heights has met with great suc- cess. He has always ranked high in scholastic, social and forensic circles. Tiat he will be doing five years from now we do not know. He may be a bank pres- ident, a vaudeville performer, or maybe Mayor of Wal- tham, but whatever his occupation will be, we can bank on Theo to rate high honors in it. Page seventy-nine THOMAS 0. GILES 119 Myrtle St., Brockton, Mass. Born December 30, 1898. Brockton High School: Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; League of the Sacred Heart. We have looked throusjh the attics and cellar? (as Cav would say I of the records for a list of the activities of the above young man, but in vain. At last we have come to the conclusion that his only ac- tivity was having his picture taken for the Sub Turhi. As an evidence that this is true, we print said picture above. Tom never made much of a splash in class,, but don ' t get us in wrong. He always was among the more successful students, but was generally tucked away in some out- of-the-way corner where the professor did not look. But despite the four year herm- itage which was his lot at the Heights and his ever self effacing disposition, de- spite all these, we have heard rumors (page Sherlock Holmes, Craig Kennedy and the conscientious Harold D. Wilson I rumors that our lamb in class is the lion of the Tenderloin in Brockton. We dunno, but it goes something like this. The four-fifteen limps into the Brockton terminal. A flying figure with a student ' s bag dives through the crowd in most approved Listonian style. A whirl in the crowd, a stir in the leather per- fumed air. . . .and he has gone. A few hours later when the evening sun has kissed the last grimy smoke-stack farewell until dawn, a gay, debonair roue-looking figure steps out upon the lane fe VI in the purlieus. Gone is the scholarly air of modesty, ' gone the pale-faced student of the morning. In his place we find the reckless scion of a hectic city, the promenader of the boulevards, the genius of the brok- en heart and the light word. Now get us straight. Our fingers are crossed, we said we dunno, but.... we predict for Tom an era replete with prosperity when he looks around for his last kindly autoist going in town. Any man who can say so little and do so much ) ' - JtOkSrt would be a success at anything. Keep up the good work, Tom.... we ' re watching the papers. 10) Page eighty HERBERT FRANCIS GILGAN 32 Union St., Randolph, Mass. Born August 25. 1901 at Brockton, Mass. Stetson High School, Randolph : So- dality 1, 2, 3, 4; League of the Sa- cred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; Orchestra 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4. Herb, the versatile young musician, first saw the light of day in Brockton, but being terrorized by the immensity of this hamlet, quickly hied himself to the wild- erness, called by the natives, Randolph. Here he attended Stetson High School and after due consideration he decided to mat- riculate at Boston College. Thus it hap- pened that one morning with the entire population at his heels he boarded a train for Boston. Gil returned the same day and informed the astonished village fathers that any one could easily come to and return from Boston on the same day. Church and fire bells were rung, the police force rode along Main street astride his horse, newspapers were util- ized as confetti and a public holiday was declared in honor of Gil for his re- markable discovery. In this manner did he start his course on the Heights. Gil is some musician and many a pleasant hour has been spent by mem- bers of the class listening to him officiate at the piano on a sultry afternoon. With all his musical duties however Herb was often witnessed scurrying down to the public library at Copley Square. When questioned concerning the purpose of these trips he would be very evasive, but he generally gave a very fair reason. The College and the class will certainly miss Herbert. He has been one of our most pleasant and willing workers. You leave many friends and happy memories when you depart, Gil, but don ' t let the fact that Randolph is far removed from the centre of culture keep you from visiting us. You ' ll always find a warm welcome, Gil, for you made many hours pleasant for us. Page eighty-one JOHN PATRICK GILCUN 20 Arlington St., Woburn, Mass. Born November 17, 1899.

Ladies and gentlemen, particularly the former, please observe the intellectual, beatific, countenance of the young man in the picture, for you have here one of the most nonchalant, sanguine, phlegmatic students of Boston College. Jack would not worry or manifest the slightest pro- vocation or disturbance of mind if he knew the end of the world was at hand. Surely as President of the B. C. Club of Woburn he has manifested to the na- tives of that hamlet through the medium of his organization that Boston College is on the way to the top of the collegiate world. Endowed with a remarkable flow of wit and a remarkable fouTitain of wisdom which would sink Old Solon in the mire of oblivion; his indilTerent attitude to- wards things serious, and his ability to crack a joke without smiling, has inscribed his name in the book beside that of Ncal O ' Hara and Bugs Baer. Jack is attractive of his very nature and thev surely are not culpable who call him Wallie Keid in disguise. He does not knock, brag or put on airs but is simply Jack all the time, and even when his [ledagogic aspirations have culminated we hope that he will remain just Jack. For a long time he linked his affections to Walter McSwiney but since he has been investigating the nat- ure of explosives in chemistry laboratory, his heart seems to have been averted to making his classmates uncomfortable by the obnoxious odors that ascend from his chemical accoutrement. Yes. John has been a clev- er student and there is yet to be found a te.xt l)ook that is a terror for him. So long, Jack, you carry with you the best wishes of everyone of us. May we meet again, and soon. ■ s - Page eighty-two WALTER RAYMOND GRAHAM 553 Walnut St., Newton, Mass. Born November 26, 1899.

The play ' s the thing. Right here in our class we have one of the closest adherents to this belief. On the stage or off he is the actor first and always. Of course you ' ve seen him put on his lavender cigarette holder, borrow a cigarette, and then with careless ease, discourse on any subject, the cigarette waving in one hand while the other hand rests easily in his pocket. Perfect poise is Walter ' s. Aside from owning the only lavender cigarette holder in this part of the civ- ilized world, he is also the possessor of the only combination garage and hotel, with steam heat, hot and cold folding doors; grand exalted ruler of the Heights, assistant editor of the Sub Turri, and incidentally assistant to about everybody. Does somebody want a clever bit of verse, a good write-up, some friendly ad- vice, a half a dollar? Immediately he goes looking for Walter; Walter the Editor, Walter the Thespian, but most of all, Walter the friend. For four years he has worked hard and unceasingly for Boston College in all things, dramatic and literary. It was the same gentleman who inaugurated the tennis tournament held at the beginning of our Senior year on the Heights. It was he also who organized the famous Heights Hock- ey Team. And now that you ' re going to leave us, Walter, leave the grey shades of the towers that sheltered our youth. But even though some of us may never see you again, though you venture far out on the stage of life, leav- ing us standing in the wings, you cannot leave us a greater, a more precious legacy than your memory.

What is to be thought of this mild-mannered soft-spoken youth from the hills and for- ests, from the pastoral solitudes of Mid- dleboro? What....? Only this. Jer- ry ' in his unassuming, bashful way has won the hearts of. all. We remember Jerry from the- earliest college days as ever the same dreamy, fair-haired, flust- ered youth, who gingerly tip-toed into Lat- in or Philosophy classes at 9.4.5 armed with his permanent late permit, but all apologetic for his intrusion. Quiet, self- effacing, and yet in Sophomore year Father Keating discovered in him an un- suspected vein of dry humor. You never knew it? Ask about Jerry ' s apprecia- tion of Horace with the immortal opening words: Why kill Horace? That masterpiece of bold original thinking instantly secured his laurels in the subtle art but made the dear professor wary and suspicious evermore of his most in- nocently intended remarks. After that the interrogative introduction was pop- ular with Jerry. Recall the light essay read in the journalism class heginning: Why write of ink? A devotee of the simple life. Jerry repeatedly scorned John Egan ' s invita- tion to plunge into the society life of South Boston. Better, he thought, to pursue the quiet sport of Izaak Walton bv Lake Assaswamsett. However, his earnest plea to divert the Sophomore A outing to these happy hunt- ing grounds fell on deaf ears — for Jerry was a dream- er, not a debater. Jerry ' s modesty will no doubt bring those stable results attendant on the quiet and earnest worker. Per- haps no blaze of rhetorical trum|)ets will herald his entrance into post-collegiate affairs, but he surclv will attain whatever sroal he seeks. Vale.

Rich, silver moonlight, a silent stream of molten silver, a little canoe, and Nat. For this was where he spent most of his time. It seems like a picture of ancient Venice, with its endless streams, and end- less boats, all ringing with merry laughter. It seems that after all metempsychosis is true and Nat is only the reincarnation of some gay old doge of Venice whose pal- ace was only a stream of rippling water, basking in the light of Lady Moon. When he came to B. C. he brought that same spirit of romance with him and many are the days that in his dreams he glided along in his little canoe. And to make the picture complete, he played a violin and many times have the soothing strains of that sweet instrument given pleasure to other gliding can- oes. Truly the spirit of Romeo still walks the land and romance is not dead. Nat could not keep away from the water so he became assistant manager of the hockey team. He ' s the kind of fellow that the professor hardly notices in class for he is as quiet as a little mouse. He is con- tent to leave the wranglings and rantings of the class to other men while he is wrapped deep in the pleasure of his air castles. He played in the orchestra and the sweet notes from his violin filled all his hearers with awe. During his Senior year he made a trip to Eu- rope and the magnet that drew him was the ancient canals of Venice. From there he went to Germany, where he spent many pleasant hours in its famous gar- dens where they have little round tables and sell pret- zels. ' Twas ever thus that the finer things of life at- tracted him and pushed material things into the background. Nat is going to be a doctor and even here he has chosen a field where he can delve into future things and bring happiness to the multitude. Page eighty-five DANIEL J.

This aspiring oil magnate is chiefly interested in chemistry, but once class on the Heights is over Dan seeks all possible enjoyment this variegated life is the favorite of the gods. In the chemistry class he is a leader and often we are astounded at the wonder- ful chemical vocabulary displayed by this offers and those who know him realize how well he succeeds in this, for indeed he future chemist as he discusses learnedly with the esteemed Prof, the value of the Doctor test or some other reaction in connection with gas. Dan is also essentially a business man and on account of this quajilication he was appointed to the advertising department of the Slr Turri stall. In llic rule of ad. man he did great work for the book. By his very nature Dan is practical, and in this respect he is in dirnci cdn- trast to his rather idealistic, devil-may-care brother. Often in liic planning il a party, or some escapade, these two elements clash and fierce arguments ensue, but invariably a satisfac- tory settlement is reached and this agreement is gener- ally very commendable, because the light, gay, devilish nature of the younger stimulates the stolid nature of Dan, while his practical steadiness saves Jack from any rash steps. Little need be said concerning his future. The aven- ues of success lie open to him. The oil game is his choice, and when a man so loves his choice of occupa- tion that he counts as nothing the many setbacks and diflicullies which its |)ursuit entails, failure is impos- sible, (jiiod Inck.

When one of Joseph Lincoln ' s characters said about his pal that God didn ' t make men better that his friend, he spoke our sentiments exactly in regard to that suave, optimistic, poetic young man from Cam- bridge. The Doc is quite a character and as the space limit will not allow us to speak late et longe, we will mention but a few of his hobbies. Chief among them are Chemistry, Poetry and tripping the light fantastic. He has made rapid progress in these during the last year, especially in the last two. His poetry, which has so often adorned the pages of the Stylus, has been the cause of many invitations to hospitable homes, and Jack has al- ways managed to obtain invitations for the rest of the gang, but when the dancing started the rest of the gang were relegated to the background. Jack, together with his brother Dan, are the oil magnates of the class of 1922. Jack shines in organic chemistry. This is not due to excessive study, but the Doc ' s natural aptitude and brightness makes it comparatively easy for him to assimilate in fifteen minutes what would take most of us an hour. Jack, in company with his brother and Dan M ' cSweeney, made quite a name for himself at the Har- vard Summer School last summer — as a macaroni eater. In fact he became so addicted to this pastry prepara- tion that the Greek waiters in Harvard Square thought he was Farina ' s brother. Petroleum is John ' s chosen field and we predict a great future for him in the oil game. If he carries through life that wonderful spirit, admirable good will and persistent stick-to-it-tiveness that he has manifested at the Heights during his four years here, well, John D. had better look to his laurels.

Honesty as substantial as a California red- wood, rightly directed enthusiasm. |)oetr and sunny friendliness, are all stamped there indelibly. Moreover, he is the only Senior who still has the power of blush- ing. But, mirabile dictu; he is cursed with a modesty as diabolical as it is hyper- bolical. To his intimates, indeed, in past years, he bashfully showed little skclches: one of Father Reynolds smiling, like the sun through a rift in the clouds; others of John Cody, reining in his temper, or Fa- ther Lynch, saying, Er-er. We all praised them to the skies but thought the likeness luckily caught. Then, suddenly, in our three years ' night of igno- rance, he sparkles out as Art Editor of the Sub Turri, the star cartoonist of the class. I suppose we will have to come to bat with the lame distinction that we knew it implicitly all the time. Notwithstanding the poetry of his life and the idealism that peeped out at intervals, Len was very practical. To be definite, his worldliness or as - ' be ' ' Evans would say, his ham and eggs philosophy, had its center in that section of Social Ethics which deals with the Domestic State. His mightiest labor will be spent to gain enough coin of the realm to found such a state and, himself as king, to people it with many hajjp) | subjects. May there be ten stalwart Hcalys like Len for i! the future B. C. — for we are broad enough to want that ol fine Healv friendship diffused over the future. Page eighty-eight MATHEW S.

Rail- road from Beverly each morning can take away the cheery grin of our class opti- mist. From the moment he bursts into the Heights ofifice (yes, Matt is one of our leading scribes) and slaps you heartily on the back, you are never bored. Life seems too short for him to worry and his is the right philosophy. Matt believes in working hard and play ing hard and the combination has pleased both his Professors and classmates. During the S. A. T. C. he played centre on the football team and anyone against whom he played knew that he had been in a game. Class baseball was also a chance for Matt to shine and he lived up to every opportunity. But as a hockey player — it pains us to say — Matt was a good debater. He represented the Heights in their annual game with the Senior Six and — using his head for a stick — hit everything but the puck. But laying aside his skates and putting on his dancing pumps — there is what our Professor of Psychology would truly call a change. Had Vernon Castle lived to see him on the waxed floor, he would have wept with envy. He is of that type that the girls call smooth. Then again, as a host, he will live long in the memory of some of his classmates who visited his summer camp in the winter vacation. Everything was perfect except for the coal collection, to which one should really donate only in his own parish. But now that we are facing life ' s stern realities, as the best authors say. Matt goes to Law School, after which, in due course of time, when he adorns the bench, he graciously promises to temper justice with mercy in dealing with us, his classmates. We wish him success and at the same time realize that he is not afraid to work for it.

John is not the proponent of peace and tranquility that his picture represents. His ardent love for his Alma Mater has enthused John with such a glowing zeal and loyalty that he is present in the cheer- ing section at every athletic contest in which the Maroon and Old Gold is repres- ented. Commuting from South Boston to Uni- versitv Heights every day for four years explains why John is frequently late. On more than one occasion have we witnessed him gliding stealthily to his chair after the chimes had played Ja-Da at nine-thirty. But straightway on his arrival he becomes wrapped up in the delicate intricacies of Ethics and Psychology. The studies were always pic for John and wc can easily recall his disputations with the professor in Psychology. John was among the foremost of the class as an intellectual genius. But it is on the smooth green surface of the billiard table that Jack shows un- told ability. Without doubt he would make Willie Hoppe appear like a minus quantity and it has been rumored that the young Jake Schaeffer has refused to accept his challenge. Such is the fortune of a past master of the art. John ' s work on the billiard table gave him such an enviable reputation that it is almost impossible for him to find an opponent among his classmates. John shuns the spotlight, in a manner that is impres- sive, but mayhap he does so conscious of the fact that all things come to him who waits. Throughout h course he has creditably upheld the traditions of old B. C. and the s|)lcndid reputation of South Boston, the home of men who accomplish deeds, and so it is no ' from mere sentiment but from the realization of his worth that we predict John ' s future success in life.

Peering at you from out this page is the Editor of this book, the man who made us toe the mark, the chap who shadowed our every move until the final write-up was collected. Mr. Reader, meet Clem Jordan, Heap Big Chief of the Sub Turri, story-teller par excellence, and a darn fine pal in the bargain. The greatest difficulty attached to writ- ing up a fellow like Clem is to know just where to begin and just where to leave off. Truly, to write him up the way we ' d like to would require about half the book, and even then we ' d never be certain that we ' d completely covered the ground. For Clem is one of the institutions of our class. Who was it when ' we were low on cigarettes came to the rescue with his ever- ready supply of Fatimas? Who was it that gave us that never-to-be-forgotten serial story which had the readers of the Heights in laughter and in tears? Who was it shared our every joy and sorrow and helped us realize the true value of college friendship? Who was it put the secluded village of Hyde Park on the map? Who was it? you ask. And in unison we answer, ' Clem ' Jordan. Yes, Clem, you ' ve been a friend worth the having. No wonder the fellows all like you. Little wonder the fair sex feels the same way towards you. You ' re like- able, that ' s all. There is something about you that gets us and grips us with a hold that no number of oncoming years can ever break. You ' re a friend, Clem Jordan, a nd we ' re mighty proud we can call you our own. You are leaving us, Clem, to take your first steps along the Avenue of Success. And in the happy days to come do not forget us. At evening when your work is done sit back in your Morris chair and light your fragrant Fatima. And there, amid the rings of smoke, you will be with us again, back in the Heights room telling us a new story. And we shall be waiting for you.

You gaze now, gentle reader, upon the greatest Sinn Feiner that Boston College ever harbored within her walls. Sympa- thizing with the sufferings of Ireland and resenting her wrongs he unflinchingly sup- ported her cause throughout New Eng- land. Not often do we meet one so fault- lessly blunt in his expressions and when we do we are pleased that we have met a man. Art ' s efforts to help the Irish race burst the fetters that foreign force and native dissensions imposed on them and elevate their country from bondage and degradation to a place among the nations of the world could hardly be contained within this book. How impossible it is then to do justice to him on one page. Brilliant and fiery as a speaker, keen and logical in mind, he sacrificed collegiate honors to fight against the power of British gold, with a succession of acts and speeches as unbroken as that of the waves on our shore. He labored when the night was blackest and the way loneliest, with few workers to cheer, but alas, lurkers to sneer, he unheedingly toiled faithfully on. As a reward for his labors he was made Sinn Fein Repris- als Commissioner at Boston with headquarters at Pem- berton Square. Though pleading the cause of Ireland Art never forgot his Alma Mater. As a member of the Stylus Staff and the Fulton Debating Society his achieve- ments are well remembered by all. With such perse- verance and courage he can never fail. He is the true scholar and while with us his star has scintillated with particular brilliancy — a brilliancy which in the future will never be dimmed.

Dorchester has contributed many of th shining lights to the class of ' 22 but none of them are more studious than George. Deny it as he will, the bill for midnight oil at his home has ever been traced to his life-long devotion to the arts and sciences. The fact that he completed his course at Boston Latin School in four years places him in his proper position as a leader of that group called the sharks of the class. But he is no less eminent in Dorchester society, for he more or less reluctantly tears himself away from the books to attend whist parties. Yes, he is addicted to such a dissipation — talks scandal over the card table with the young and old of his parish with garrulousness to match the best of them. The college is indeed lucky to have such a representa- tive in this peculiar yet worthy strata of society. Then there is a rumor that George takes long walks in the evening and he roguishly admits that he is not alone on these occasions. In this, the age of taxicabs, dinner dances and theatre parties, he is either to be congratulated upon his frugality or someone else is to be condoned for ignorance of such modern diversions. One of the high lights in George ' s college career was the night he defended a thesis in Major Logic before Father Boehm ' s evening school class in Philosophy, at which many of the intellectual young ladies of Boston were present. Here the combination of George ' s flash- ing smile and brilliant defense of the thesis completely won them over. George acted as escort for one of the fair pupils that evening on the way home. To the brave belong the fair. George ' s ambition is to teach at Boston Latin School and judging from his record in college, he will prove a splendid addition to any faculty.

In September, 1918, the dashing, deli- onair young man whose smiling portrait adorns this page ushered himself into Bos- ton College. Behind that austere, smil- ing, intellectual countenance reposes a noble and true character which will never cower or cringe before any difficulty en- countered, however great. Bacchus has done about everything on the college calendar of indoor and outdoor sports and activities. He made his collegiate debut in the Mandolin Club and like stepping stones to success he continued in the Glee Club and Orchestra until, in his Senior year, he relieved both Mr. Tobin, S. J., and Professor Burke of all worries and tribulations by assuming full charge of the Musical Clubs. During our Alma Mater ' s drive for two million dol- lars, Bacchus, as Chairman of the B. C. Clubs, labored incessantly and earnestly for old B. C. His faithful services were rewarded by our Reverend President, who openly extended to Bacchus the sincere appreciation of both students and faculty for his untiring labors. Bacchus was a knowing and sympathetic conversa- tionalist, a thinker and a student. His college career was a great success. We are not predicting success for him — it is not necessary. We are confident that the citizens of Lowell will soon realize the invaluable intel- lectual genius among their numbers and very soon Hon. George Horan Keefe will be directing the throttle of his birthplace along the railroad of prosperity as chief executive of the citv. Farewell Bacchus.

Heroes are usually fictitious; valor and fortitude are exemplified in but few in- stances in real life. Yet, he is surely a hero who sacrifices every ounce of stamina in his body to propagate the glory of his Alma Mater on the football field, and then in the last struggle for victory, is carried from the field against his will, weak and injured from consistent attempts to check the miraculous onslaughts of a foe en- dowed with practically superhuman strength — such a man is not only a hero, but is also Bill Kelleher. A hero, too, is he who bedecks himself with a flagrant checked suit, patent-leather shoes and a cap resembling the hue of a sun-kist orange — in this respect Bill was a couple of heroes. In moleskins or Kuppen- heimer Bill smiled, parted his hair in the middle, was called Kewpie, and was surrounded by admiring debutantes. Under all circumstances Bill was a twentieth century model. Kewp is an addict to poetry and philosophy. Poetry because it lends access to many a cosy parlor; Philosophy because his great friend Father Cox taught it. Bill decided to complement his studies at the Heia;hts next year, and consequently was chosen captain of foot- ball, the highest honor attainable in the sphere of ath- letics. So we will again see him manifest that excellent defensive ability for which he was nationally acclaimed the best defensive full-back in college football. In view of his election another championship will most probably be annexed to the fame of Boston College. Bill has an invincible character for which we honor him, an exalted spirit of manliness for which we admire him, and a most attractive personality for which we are very fond of him. Bill is an ace in any pack, men like him make life a pleasure. Page ninety-five WILLIAM PATRICK KELLEHER 50 Landseer St., West Roxbury. Mass. Born Feb. 7. 1899 Boston Latin School; West Roxburv B. C.

Bill has the repu- tation of being the most quiet and imoh- trusive young man within our walls. With him words have meant energy and exertion and were it not for the fact that we see him once in a while we would not know whether he was in school or down at the Orpheum — the latter one of Bill ' s places of rest to which he hastens now and then. Bill claims that the greatest men are men of few words. At any rate he wisely maintains that a man of few words will not make any enemies. To grapple for a place within the inner sanctum of his affiliation is almost as difficult as it is to delve within the restricted circle of John Ford s friendship. Yet we who have palled with Bill can only express the depth of sentiment that reposes amidst such sombre tranquility. There was but one big thought weighing upon Bill ' s mind when he walked from the Heights to West Roxbury for the first time and that was to make a reputation for himself. That he accomplished this we will not venture to say now but we will sav that he has accum- ulated more than enough knowledge to place his am- bition within his grasp. He has ever been a student of honor and an inspiration for medals. In his home town Bill has a reputation as a ball player. But Bill modestly claims that his kid brother will exalt the name of Kelleher in athletics when he makes his debut on the Heights. During vacations and recreation periods Bill strings lines and wires houses for a Roslin- dale electrician. We do not know whether he intends to pursue this latter profession or not, but at any rate he has our fondest wishes for success. GEORGE ALOYSIUS KELLEY 264 Grove St., West Medford, Mass.

This, ladies, is the celebrated George Football Kelley who in 1920 was men- tioned for All-American guard by Father Cox. Outside of a few honors which have been thrust upon his shoulders by the faculty and the coaches George has been content to let the world roll by. And it has taken quite a few rolls since he made that decision. George says that he is still waiting for his turn to roll. But when it does — ah, fellows, when it does. Kelley first broke into the spotlight of intercol- legiate athletics when he furnished the Yale line something more to think about than tea dances. Before the game was old enough to worry about his attackers were as scarce as a clean towel in a round house washroom. Many All-American candidates retired from football to take up jackstones after trying to bowl over George. His work has been described by many sport writers as phenomenal and many others subscribed to the fund to buy Walter Camp a pair of glasses. Besides being all we have described George is the one and only president of the B. C. Club of Medford. His personally conducted socials have been thrown with an eclat and finesse which could only be furnished by the inimitable Kell. As a Junior in the era of the drive he was his parish chairman and his eloquent speeches in behalf of his Alma Mater caused a river of shekels to flow into the coffers of the treasurer. We could write George ' s praises until Gabriel tired of blowing his klaxon and heaved it over the back fence. The reason we don ' t is because the book isn ' t big enough. His success is assured if he can hit the world like he did all those unfortunate guards and tackles — we sincerely hope he does. ' Atta boy, George. nmetv-seven JOHN D.

No matter how good the team is (and our football team captured the Eastern Championship during Jack ' s Junior year I , there is noth- ing like good cheering to help the team along in the weary fight against a strong opponent. It seems certain that if Jack had more weight he would have been an athlete of renown for his interests were with athletics throughout his course, and in his chosen field of athletics. . . .juggling sodas on the Nantasket boats. . . he showed remarkable ability and often evoked hearty applause from his au- dience by his startling feats of daring. Whenever anyone wanted to find Jack, he was always to be found in the A. A. office talking over the football situation, or calling up one of the sporting-goods stores for a dozen track shoes — for Jack was manager of track as well as cheer-leader. Quite fortunately for Jack, his Junior Professor was acquainted with a fair friend of his, and so it was easy scholastic sailing for Jack who was thus enabled to meander with the above-mentioned friend during the evenings when his less-favored classmates were study- ing Dialectics. But we should all take advantage of any favorable opportunities presented to us, and diplom- acy never fails to gain more than aimless strivings. So, we congratulate Jack for his student activities. Never seeming aggressive, yet always gaining his objective. Jack is one of those who can succeed and go forward, leaving behind him no enemies and many friends.

Tall, slender John has only been with us during our last collegiate year on the Heights and our only regret is that he was not with us longer. His previous col- legiate years were spent in Holy Angels College and what has been their loss has been our gain. As a gentle stranger with unusual quietude he made his appearance among us last fall, creating quite a little curiosity which naturally comes with the advent of any stranger. As time went on we learned that the solemn, wordless fea- tures belonged to one who, though he was without ostentatiousness and visible dynamism, was a consistent, active student with an uncanny love for the chemical laboratories. He was never flippant, yet never austere, never at a loss for information in class and yet not pre-eminently pedantic. He was not a promiscuous mixer and still he was a generally loved good fellow when we got to know him. Through these consistent characteristics you can get a true picture of tall John. Such were his characteristics last fall when he first came among us and they are not changed as he stands among us at Commencement. And if in two years hence some- body will describe him to us they will speak of the gentle faced fellow buried in unusual quietude. He is unchangeable among us. As he acted yesterday and the day before, he acts today, and tomorrow? Well, he may act differently, but it will be merely a development along the splendid lines he followed during his career with us.

The fellow who wrote that story en- titled The Prince Chap must have known Billie Long. Billie is certainly a prince of a fellow. We are in a position to know because our acquaintance with Billie has ejctended over a period of four long years and during every moment of those four years Billie has always been the same; ever a true friend, a devoted com- panion, and a royal rooter for old B. C. Last September he joined the staff of the Heights and before many weeks had passed he had been raised from the ranks of the cub reporters to the ex- alted position of managing editor. Billie could make good at anything he undertook. Whether it was as a member of Fulton, a speaker for the Drive, or a student in class, he was always to be found with the leaders. And when it came to lending a helping hand Billie was ever within call. It is altogether likely that you who are read- ing this page can recall the time when Billie Long did a little something for you. Loyalty to his classmate was as much a part of Billie as was the wonderful smile which was forever on his countenance whether the day brought sunshine or shadow. Tiat ' s Billie going to do when he leaves Chestnut Hill? Oh, that ' s not so difficult to answer. We haven ' t been gazing into any crystal but something tells us that Billie is going to get to work just as soon as he can. Why the hurry? What do you suppose any handsome young man with a bit of romance written all over him is ever in a hurry about? But before you leave us, Billie old boy, promise us this one thing. Whatever you do, don ' t forget us. We can never forget you. Page one hundred CHARLES AUGUSTINE McCARTHY 12 Swan Street, Lawrence. Born January 7, 1001 Lawrence High School, K. ( .

But when this quality is found united to ability in art, and prowess in athletics, well might we point with pride to the possessor of these characteristics. Boston College finds these talents pos- sessed by Charlie McCarthy in an unusual- ly high degree. Charlie transferred from Holy Cross to Boston College so that his voice might be improved by association with other fine singers. All books, his own or his neighbors that fall into his hands are soon covered with caricatures of his professors, classmates and his kinsman, Kloby. The similarity with the subject is of no moment to Charlie, as long as he livens the weary minutes of his classmates. His delayed advent to our domain alone prevented him from becoming a candidate for the Varsity. His work as a tackle on the Class football team surely smacked of first-class ability. Charlie ' s bosom friend is Tom Maloney. What a great pair for action ! There are none of our commuting friends who spend so much time at the College as Mac. Though not here earlv, he always stays till the last gun is fired. We think Charlie will choose a military career because he always does the unexpected. We may be mistaken, but are certain of this, that whatever he undertakes in life, he will approach with a song, carry out with vigor, and leave immeasurably better ofT.

Yes, Charlie sported the single gold bar on his shoulders during the troublesome days of the World War and he certainly presented a fine figure in the old khaki. For many months after he discarded the uniforin and returned to the Heights he was the recipient of many lengthy, sweet-scented epistles from num- erous debutantes whom he had met dur- ing his camp life. However, the war over, he settled down and imbibed the cognitions of Latin, Greek, and Chemistry in Sophomore. He was a charter member of the Heights, the College weekly, and this paper owes no little of its success to him. In the Fulton his eloquence and arguments appeared to burst forth like the outbreaking of a fountain with original, native force. Although never a member of the intercollegiate debating team we are of the opinion that few, if any, could surpass him in extemporaneous debating. The thunderous terms flowed from his lips like the steady flow of a stream over its smooth bed. It was in the daily press that Charlie did his bit for old B. C. He was instrumental in keeping the Maroon and Old Gold continually before the public eye. Hardly a day would pass without some notice of B. C. in the papers. Every activity would find its way into the columns of Charlie ' s paper. And B. C. owes all this boosting to Charlie McCarthy. Whether he intends to follow a journalistic career we do not know. Some predict that he will have an M. D. after his name. Others say he will have M. A. But we do know that whatever it is, his sunny disposi- tion and charming personality will continue making friends for him and as he goes he has our heartfelt wishes for success.

Originally he was in the Class of 1918, but when war was declared Mac left his books and spent the intervening years on the battle- scarred fields of Europe. Before the war he was a star pitcher on the baseball team and with his return to the team we are looking forward to a successful nine on the Heights this spring. Mac is the big- gest man in the Class and he is as good as he is big. Every one he meets likes him immediately and hence his list of friends has grown to such an alarming degree that he does not dare tell them that he has had his picture taken. His talent not only lies in making and keep- ing friends, but he is also a diligent, thoughtful student, a man with a high pur- pose and the will to achieve that purpose. Some predict that he will join with his pal, John Connors, the biretta covered gathering in St. John ' s yard across the street, but such a statement is merely conjectural as far as Mac is concerned. We are at a loss to record the countless successes and happinesses crowded into his first three years at the College but we do know that his last year was most pleasant and beneficial. Thus we are compelled to regret the fact that Mac wasn ' t al- ways with us. With his modesty, persistence and pa- tience, we are assured that Mac ' s career will be a bright one and in that assurance we rejoice. Page one hundred three HENRY FRANCIS McDERMOTT 19 Victoria St., Dorchester, Mass. Born December 25, 1898 Boston College High; Glee Club 1, ' 2, 3 4; Band 2, 3; Sodality 1. 2, 3, 4; K. C. — B. C. Club (Chairman Enter- tainment Committee); Dorchester B. C. Club 1, 2, 3, 4. It is a very common impression among people in general that the life of a stu- dent makes a man grow thin. We can find no better example to prove the ab- surdity of such a statement than smiling, genial, Harry. This big handsome fel- low is as happy as the day is long and his merry laugh has been a delight to all of us. During his Sophomore year, Har- ry upheld the honor of ' 22 against the Freshmen on the gridiron but greater was the assistance he rendered during the Soph-Fresh Rush. The Sophs were out- numbered 2 to 1, but Ilarry with his size, took the place of five men, and by lusty swinging and charging he placed ' 22 on top. It was during his associations with the musical clubs that his real worth came out. For four years he has blended his voice with the harmonies of our Glee Club and Greater Boston has derived a lot of pleasure from his solos, but who among us could ever forget those horrible notes he blew from that large bass horn in the band, and did you ever see him at a piano? No, not moving one, playing it. He has a bunch of fingers that can do more with keys than a burglar. Harry is not only a musician but a good student and, as Billy Long says, an admired favorite with the fair sex, and what greater accomplishment could a ' 22 man have. We are sure Harry ' s disposition alone will achieve for him success. w Page one hundred tour EDMUND JOHN McGREENERY 164 Brattle St., Cambridge Born July 21, 1899 at Roxbury St. Tohii ' s Prep School; Pres. of Musi- ical Clubs 4; Vice-Pres.

We could call him our Paderewski, Rachman- inofl or Hoffman but we feel certain that to tail him our own Ed will be far more satisfactor to all. To think of a piano is to think of Ed and to think of Ed is a pleasure. Ed came to us from St. John ' s Prep, and while previously we have never felt in any way indebted to Danvers we must give that town its due and thank it for sending us our Ed. Ed has been the pianist for the orches- tra and Glee Club since his Freshman year. And now that he is leaving the College we can ' t help but feel sorry for the musical clubs of the future. How, oh, how are they going to manage without Ed? Whether the call was for op- eratic selections, accompanist for solo work, or dance a la Paul Whitman, made no difference to Ed. He could play anything that had notes and there are some among us who claim he could play even if there were no notes. By this time we have probably convinced you that Ed McGreenery is a really fine pianist. If we haven ' t succeeded in doing this we are a tougher writer than we think we are. This vear Ed was elected President of the Musical Clubs. Quite an honor to be sure, yet nothing more than he deserved. The Musical Clubs without our Ed would be like Eskimo pie without ice cream. In either case it just would ' nt be. Ed is the fellow who wrote the music for our Class Song and he, together with Jim Connolly who is responsible for the words, may lay clairii to one of the finest college songs ever written. Ed has been on so many entertainment committees and has been one of the main factors in so many social functions out here on the Heights that wccl have to have a couple of pages to even tell half of it.

He left the Hill of St. James and came that he might see for hiinself and in seeing was so satisfied that he took up his abode on Chestnut Hill and has been with us ever since. Our gain was Holy Cross ' loss for had the genial smiling Tim failed to leave the Hill of St. James then our Class would have indeed been incomplete. The im- mobility of Tim was the expression of a thousand activities only too quick and too varied to be caught by casual students. Those who have been privileged to sit in the Stylus Sanctum with him have seen the most serious and gloomy hours flee in clouds of joy. As editor of the Stylus, he has labored incessantly until that publication has once more become the leading college magazine of the country. Who will ever forget our Home Nights when Tim thrilled us by killing Dan McGrew or by cremating Sam McGee? Yes or even those nights when in Tuxedo he graced the floors of the Victoria or the Copley Plaza? These are but a few of his activities and with his energy, vers- atility and ability, time alone will serve to place him among the most illustrious men that have dwelt be- neath the towers on Chestnut Hill.

It is with the intention of preserving for pos- terity the said thing of beauty that we have affixed the benign features of Jack McKearin to this page. Originally from the Green Mountains, he has inherited that native hill climb- ing proficiency, which in J. J. ' s case ap- plies not only to physical but to intellectu- al hills as well. We have as yet to see him slip. In popularity, versatility and originality Jack is in a class by himself. Every- body on the Heights knows him, and he is everybody ' s friend; he is a marvel of proficiency in many lines of endeavor, a luminary in poetry, science, oratory, a master chauffeur and plumber. The Stylus has been adorned with numerous of his poetical works, all lead- ers in thoughts of sublimity. We especially commend his lines relative to the wiles of the Goddess of Love, of whom J. J. is a staunch admirer. At times Jack has been a dramatician, but we vouch for this — that never can he reach again the heights of eloquence that he attained on the cold, drear highway between Newton and New York when dusk overtook him and that other vagabond, J. Hayes, on the road to football victories. We have seen him conquer the hearts of numerous damsels by the charm of his personality and his ability on the bail room surface. With these qualities, added to his adeptness at the arts and sciences and his pleas- ing affiliations with his fellows, nothing need be ex- pected but progress in his after life. May everything he does yield him, a modern Midas, the gold of success. Page one hundred seven GEORGE LEONARD McKIM 18 Thane St., Dorchester, Mass. Born May 5, 1900 Boston Latin School; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4 : Promoter of League of the Sacred Heart 2, 3, 4; Sergeant in S. A. T. C. (1); Dorchester B. C. Club 1, 2, 3. 4. Detail attention ! Right by squads — March! Hip! two! three! four! Snap into it there! Suck in your guts! Eyes front! And a few more commands of this kind will introduce, dear reader, Sergeant George L. McKim, the red-headed, deep- throated, efficient, active executive officer of Company D. George was some lil non-com, as the men who labored under him will testify. But this was during the S. A. T. C. days. However, immediately after the armis- tice was signed, George enrolled at the Heights and after four long, arduous years of intensive training (for George was never enrolled in the category of social lions) he is ready to leave the walls of old B. C. and step out into the battle of life. In High School George established an enviable record as a public speaker and debater, but on the Heights he never competed for oratorical honors. Why? We do not know, but we are positive that George was not afraid of competition. However, outside activities, which utilized most of our red-headed hero ' s time may have some voice in this, because George peddled fish, delivered mail and cavorted around the numerous by-ways of Dorchester lighting the street lamps, all this besides having the enviable record of never being late once during his entire sojourn at University Heights. As we said above George was never listed as a head- liner in the social atmosphere. He did not dance, smoke, chew, or even sing, but notwithstanding all this he was every inch a man. It is with the deepest feelings of regret that we say farewell to George. His company was ever welcome and whatever environment he enters when he leaves B. C., we are certain will be more than ameliorated by his addition. His indomitable spirit of righteousness and his unflinching will, mingled with his jovial disposition, will enable him to overcome all obstacles and difficulties — and so we are positive of his success. Page one hundred eight LEONARD A. McMAHON 112 Washington St., Hyde Park Born Aug. 15, 1900 Boston College High School: Sodality 1. 2, 3. 4: Sacristan of Sodality 3, 4; Fulton 4; Radio Club 2, 3; K. of C. Club 3, 4; Glee Club 4; Class Day Committee 2, 3; Secretary B, C. Club of Hyde Park 3, 4. ■ ' Leu hails from the land that God forgot to elucidate — Hyde Park. Always a good student, has a good natured smile and has completed four busy years at the Heights without being late once. Len claims that he owes all his success in life to haying been always on hand a quarter of an hour before time. Len has a weakness — or we may say a fondness — for the fair sex out in the country districts. He claims that city girls know too much. One fair damsel especially, who considers pink stationery the proper medium of epistolary ex- change, appears to be the recipient of more or less of Len ' s attentions. Our hero stepped out big at the Junior Prom at the Vendome and did you casually observe his partner — hot dog! Although there was quite a bevy of beauties present, nevertheless the fair sweet woman with Len stood out as the very per- sonification of young sweetness in our modest estimation. Our hero has an unsatiated covetousness for knowledge. He will ask more questions in a minute than a youth of three would ask in an hour. However, Len has adopted the Socratic method of acquiring knowledge and consequently we have to respect his questions as coming from a serious mind. He has been numbered among the leaders in scholarship and even Ethics with all its terrors appears easy to him. Len has been a member of both the Varsity dancing team and the Senior bowling team and has been a Frank Merriwell in both these athletic events. There is, how- ever, another capacity outside of college activities which we link to Len. That is as a classmate, and if there is a more congenial companion in the class of 1922 we would like to know him. From his adept aliilitx at running things, we predict a long and successful career as a chauffeur. Page one hundred nine CHARLES ANTHONY McMORROW 187 Dorchester St., So. Boston Born Sept. 17, 1901 B. C. High; Society Editor Sub Turri 4; Senior Smoker Committee; Senior Philomatheia Committee ; Class Foot- ball 3, 4; Sodality 3, 4; Varsity Base Ball 4; South Boston B. C. Club 1, 2, 3, 4. The Senior class, one and all, pays tri- bute to Charles Tony McMorro ' w, a liv- ing example of all that is good and praise- worthy. Smiling, easy-going, agreeable Tony; small wonder that he never made an en- emy, with always a pleasant greeting and words of cheer to everyone. Never have we heard anything but praise for friends — or — well, there just aren ' t any foes. Charlie, although not joining our class until we reached Junior year, has found his way into the hearts of all. The Senior class to a man has a feeling for Charlie which can be expressed only in terms of love. He is loved by everyone. As a Freshman and Sophomore Tony was a member of the class of ' 21, but unfortunately for him and luckily for us serious sickness during his Junior year necessitated a year ' s delay. Success has met Charlie ' s efforts in every field in which he has entered. In the classroom his work has been excellent: always has he been among the leaders. His work on the diamond has likewise been sensational. As a short stop Charlie has few superiors, his fielding ability being on a par with the best, and it is a real treat to watch him vanquish all comers on the tennis court. Charlie ' s affection for the Heights is so pronounced that he has been found seated cosily in his Reo, on the Driveway, when the moon holds sway in the heavens — no doubt earnestly awaiting the renewal of the melodi- ous chimes from the Gothic towers. Charlie ' s presence in our midst has been a source of unlimited pleasure to us all. We appreciate his pleas- ant smile and his cheery word, and we feel sorry that the time has come when our walks in life must part. However, we have no doubt that Charlie ' s future life will be marked vfiih the same success as has been his past.

Arthur McNeil is a fellow well worth knowing; in fact, you simply must know him well to appreciate him. Beaming with good humor, kinder than the kindest, possessor of a clear brain and a mind of penetrating keenness, of most delightful personality — these are only a few of the nice things we can say of friend Arthur. Art is the sort of chap who prefers to let the other fellow do the idle talking while he sits back with stoical calm to speak only after a careful consideration of the matter at hand. And so it is that when Arthur does speak his listeners are all attention. As friend Julius would say: ' He reads much: he is a great observer, and he looks quite through the deeds of men. Yet we mustn ' t leave you with the impression that Art is one of those book- worms who spends his time poring over the shelves in the public library. Far from it. When the occasion demands Art is just as full of pep as the best of us, a veritable dynamo of vigor, ready to lend his enthusiasm to every worthy project, be it of work or of play. His classmates just crave his companionship, so infectious is his boundless good humor. Truly, Art can do about anything. He can write, sing, orate, study and smoke cigarettes with equal skill; indeed, he is a typical example of efficiency. We nmstn ' t forget to mention the fact that Arthur is a prominent man in the railroad world. If you ' ve ever had the occasion lor perhaps we should say the necessi- ty) to visit the station at Brookline Hills you have seen our Arthur in all his glory. For Art, you must know, is station agent, chief train despatcher and baggage mas- ter at this important junction of the B. A. Road. A scarcity of trains is the only thing that worries Art but he manages to while away the idle hours iiy shuffling the pasteboards with Len Healy, Dud Tenney and ' alter Busam. And they do tell us that Art ii uall comes out a few tokens to the good.

Have you seen that cheer, that smile, that happiness put in words that would bring an answer- ing smile to the face on the barroom floor? Have you noticed the first and most will- ing supporter of any college activity? Then you know Dan McSweeney. Add to these qualities the fact that for four years he has been well up among the leaders in scholastic standing and you can see what a pleasing medley of likable and admirable features is contained in the make-up of Mr. McSweeney. No task, no study was ever too difficult for his master intellect to conquer; no day too dark for his wonder smile to brighten. Everyone, from lowly Freshman to haughty Senior, hails Dan as a friend and is proud of the friendship. And Dan is everybody ' s friend and is always ready to show and prove it At every B. C. athletic contest, at every B. C. social event, at every B. C. debate, Dan was there. And in fact a whole writeup of Dan could be summed up in that one sentence; he was always there. To some of the men who were with us during these four years we can say, So long, old man, good by, but good by is a word not built for you, Dan. You ' ll never be gone from us, for wherever we go your smile goes with us, happy with us in our joys, and, when clouds of gloom gather thick and dark about us, that smile, like the sun after a storm, will scatter the clouds to the four winds of heaven and once again the day will be bright, the sky blue and life will seem a better life with the aid of your smile.

Wiillcr MiSwiiiey, most reticent youth, is Ironi tlie rejuvenated city of Chelsea. Walter prefers science to dances and among the seniors st ands alone in such a love for work instead of pleasure. He has been with us for four years and has accomplished a great deal, yet he modest- ly assures us that he has done nothing of note. He has fastened himself firmly in the hearts of his classmates by his sincerity and quiet application to his college work. Not only do the Seniors claim him as their friend but even the Sophomores and Jun- iors consider him their best friend. This is due to the great assistance that he has given them in Chemistry. Instructor in Chemistry is the title of distinction conferred upon him because of his proficiency and interest in the science. Be- sides his own extensive work in research at the laboratory Walter finds ample time to perform the duties accompanying the title conferred upon him. We look forward to next year and hope to find him one of the leading scient ists at Technology. It is almost impossible to mention Walter without referring to his bosom pal, John Gilgun. They have been inseparable, attending sodality to- gether and finding nothing tedious while in each other ' s company. Walter is well known as a ball player around Chelsea during the sunmier, but while on the Heights has devoted all his time to science. Walter is a product of Chelsea High while his pal Gilgun is from Woburn High. Their ' s is one of a multitude of friendships that i-i p have had their beginnings on the Heights and each of us thinks just as much of Walter as does John Gilgun, his bosom pal.

South Boston was surely put on the map when Ed hastened from the peninsula district to plant the seed of his prowess at University Heights. For a quiet chap his modesty is only exceeded by his un- fathomable source of knowledge. Ed claims that men of few words are the very personification of wisdom. When Ed first appeared on the Heights he told us all about his native heath and assured us that there were no more at home like him. We were more as- sured of this fact when we observed his dazzling, fiery, red hair and his constant devotion to his text books, and we finally came to the conclusion that Ed was not bragging at all. Yet he has not the temper which tradition claims is inseparable from hair of such a reddish tint, but is quite solemn and collected under all sorts of circumstances. Ed ' s course at B. C. has been one long sweet dream. In Ed we have the essence of dignity, not only while a Senior but all through his college career, for he has been one of the quiet members of the class, saying little but thinking much. However, there are a few who can boast of as sincere and devoted enthusiasm for his Alma Mater. Ed, even while a mere Freshman, was one of the prime movers in the founding of the South Boston B. C. Club, which in his Senior year he piloted as President. His own aim has been to make Boston College more appreciated in the peninsula district. We are almost prompted to prophesy Ed ' s future occupation, but we will let fate take its course. Suffice to say that Ed has always been a consistent ground gainer throughout his college course and it is such a man that does the big things of life rather than the momentary luminary who appears with a flash and whose brilliancy soon consumes itself. Ed, good luck and vale! Page one hundred fourteen FRANCIS E. MAGF.NNIS 29 Maniung St., Medford, Mass. Burn July 31. 1900 R. r. llij;h: Stylus Contr.

Then Koche drifts into the discussion, then Cusick and the inimitable Carey. Frank has the uncanny way of punch- ing holes through the most well believed a.xionis oi Scholasticism. He has tried every argument and has found it wanting. But all this is not surprising. He is a debater of the first water and has demonstrated his worth on many an occasion. ' i ' Tien his fertile mind becomes surfeited of oratory he turns to other and varied fields. Poetry has held him for a spell and he is a proficient essayist. As a proof of his ability he wears the little gold literary key of the Stylus, of which he has been a member for four years. . nd like others, whose legion is small, who find an outlet for every conceivable kind of activity in the indul- gence of the varied mood, his personality is that calm, un- ruflled, silently understanding type which holds for the observer the charm of that priceless gift — reserve power. Power has stamped its regal sign upon his lofty brow and the effect of it is visible in his every act. He has also, despite his naturally deep and thoughtful way, a tendency to indulge his lighter mood in the swirl of a pulsing fox- trot or in the company of the weaker but more dangerous sex. Here we will leave him. For such as he the world is not cruel — ever. Page one hundred fifteen THOMAS FALLON MAHAN 220 Poplar St., Roslindale Born June 22, 1900 Boston College High; Advertising Manager of the Heights 2, 3, 4; Asst, i ' Ianager of Track 1, 2; Fulton De- bating Society ; Promoter League of Sacred Heart; Sodality; K. of C. Club; West Roxbury B. C. Club. To know Tom Mahan is to like him and the better you know him the better will vou like him. Tn the fall of 1919 when the upper class- men decided that it was about time the College had a weekly paper they sent out a call for an advertising manager. They knew that no paper could be expected to flourish and endure without the services of a real live advertising man and they delib- erated long and seriously before making a selection. And the man they finally chose to be advertising manager of the Heights was Thomas F. Mahan. Certain- ly they have never regretted their choice. Tom was only a Sophomore at the time of his appointment but he proved a live wire from the very start. For three years Tom has been in charge of the advertising for the Heights and the financial and material growth of this publication is due largely to his efforts. Anything from a one inch reader to a full page Camel ad — it was all the same to Tom. Nor did he confine his advertising ability solely to the Heights, for many of the ads you see in this book are the result of Tommy ' s persistent effort. Tom has plenty of other accomplishments in addition to his advertising skill. As a member of Fulton he has made an enviable record as a debater and as assist- ant manager of the track team he earned the admira- tion of all with whom he came in contact. Tom seemed to be gifted with the knack of being able to do things in the best possible fashion — a knack which we are sure will serve him to great purpose in the business world. When Tom says good bye to University Heights we have an idea that he will waste no time but will settle down as soon as possible. For Tom, unlike many of us, has been in earnest even while a student and we can easily picture him strolling up the aisle to the strains of Mendelssohn or Lohengrin. Our best wishes are with you, Tom, to the very end.

Club 1, 2, 3, 4: Base- ball 4: League of Sacred Heart, 1, 2, 3. 4: Every morning Tom boarded the 8.09 train from Quincy to Boston. His ap- pearance in the pullman was the immedi- ate cause for much confusion on the part of the fair sex, such as the fixing of hats, primming of furs and hasty sidelong glances into pocket mirrors, for Tom is one handsome fellow as his portrait shows. However, we are not predicting his suc- cess on the stage or screen for he is very modest as to his manly charms. We also hear that Tom cuts a decided figure in the dance halls. His graceful figure is the object of much admiration and we are told he emerged the victor over a large field in the Diamond Ring exhibition at Music Hall last summer. Although he was never numbered among the diamond representatives of old B. C. his worth as a pinch hitter and catcher has been recognized by various semi- pro teams, who were continually bickering for his services. He was catcher and captain of the Quincy K. of C. ball team which won the Casey championship two years ago. He also held the stolen base record of the K. C. league for three consecutive seasons. He also shoots a great game of pool as many of us can swear. On more than one occasion we have meekly stood by and watched him pick off fifteen straight. We certainly were fish for him. It was the same way on the alleys. He never ran up a score of less than one hundred and forty-seven. Tom, your smiling countenance and ready wit will be greatly missed around this section next year. We are positive of your success and so we say nothing about it. But whatever you do, remember you have our wishes with you. Fare thee well, Tom.

Club 3, 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 2; Fulton 4; Vice Pres- ident Lowell B. C. Club 3. France had her McMahon (who, by the way, is a relative of John Consodine ' s), Germany had her Bismarck and Lowell had her Walter Markham. Walter is one of the far-sighted individuals who had the providence to apply for a late permis- sion before beginning his Senior year. Thus no smirch of tardiness ever defiled the. record of the vice-president of the club. But, as we said before, Walter has a claim to greatness equal to the builders of empires. This claim is, in brief, based mainly on the fact that Walter arises from his cot in the fastnesses of Floyd Street in the morning and five minutes later swings nonchalantly aboard the Com- muters ' Special. All Lowell is aghast at the speed of this, her most promising son. In vain have the reporters of the local papers sought the secret of this daily feat. But Walter is immobile and will not tell. He came to the Heights with the reputation of being one of the best 1000 yard men that Lowell ever turned out, but the pursuit of knowledge turned him from the cinder paths to those of learning and we will vouch for him that he has done fully as well there. He possesses that quietly resolute attitude of mind which is the forerunner always of success, and notwithstanding his ever genial attitude he is the master to a marked degree of that gentle art of applied wisdom, the lack of which so many college men regret. The art is to be consistently wise and consistently right. That ' s Walter all over — consistency. Socially he ranks with the best of them. Politically he was quite successful. Let his record speak. Morally he is a true son of Boston College. When we say that, it includes everything. His future course as yet may be many of the varied paths toward which we are heading. His success is assured. Page one hundred eighteen JOHN FRANCIS MEADE 73 Lincoln St., North Easton, Mass. Born Sept. 4, 1899 Oliver Ames High School: League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4 : Sodal- ity 1. 2. 3, 4: Class Baseball 2; Glee Ciub 2: Fulton 3. 4. Did you ever hear of North Easton? No. ell, see John. You will want to buy a house there when he gets through enumerating the many advantages of rural life. He is a lover of the soil and those close to the soil. You must not imagine though, that John is a hick, for unless he told you that he came from the country you would believe him a resident of Boston proper. We must stop calling him John lor nobody calls him anvthing but Jazz. He received this appellation from good old Father McQuade in Sophomore, who in turn vouches that he heard the fair sex of North Easton whisper it with subdued admiration and affection. In class Jazz is a quiet fellow, but once he starts talking all pay attention, for they know that he has something worth while to say. From the first month in Freshman to Commencement, Jazz was a leader in every cause. With his boon companion, Artemus Ward, Jazz hurries to the city every afternoon and throws the traffic squad into delirium with his utter abandon of the traf fic rules. During the summer months Jazz is a director on the Boston Maine. His work in this capacity has resulted in a promotion to the machine shops, where he smashes his fingers as well as old machinery. With his happy nature, tenacity of purpose and natural ability, we are sure that the Meade family will replace the Ames in North Easton. Page one hundred nineteen JAMES J. MEEHAN 17 Bellevue St., Dorchester, Mass. Born April 9, 1901 Boston College High School; Sodal- ity 1, 2, 3, 4; Fabre Club; Marquette 1 ; League of Sacred Heart. September, 1918, brought to University Heights the snappy looking individual in the picture — Mr. James J. Meehan. What- ever else may be said here concerning Jimmie, we musf award the palm to him for being the most retiring young man in the College. There are few men in the class who are such wonders at all trades as is our Jim- mie. He has been a chauffeur, a very good soda clerk, a clever politician and in- cidentally a very good student. Few, if any, have ever given to Jimmie the credit he deserves for burning the midnight oil, which is overshadowed by his ever- pleasing, contented and sunny disposition, and thus he escapes the rather rare appellation — plugger. Jimmie has always kept his marks high and many a time has caused a frown of bewilderment to appear on the professor ' s brow after asking a perplexing question. Amongst the members of the class he has an enviable reputation and has in many ways shown himself worthy of imitation along the lines of dressing, etiquette, personal appearance and self respect. Jim has been attractively drawn to the study of biology. In fact, every small four-footed animal will fly away like the wind whenever Jim draws near, so desirous is he of search- ing animal anatomy. His biology texts have been a source of joy to all of us who have sat near him in class, and the various fragments of knowledge that we have derived from Jim ' s explanation of animal life have bound us to him with an unfailing friendship. If we are not mistaken, a Doc Meehan will be hanging his shingle on a door in Dorchester some day and we are sure patients will be well cared for. Page one hundred twenty JOSEPH DAVID MEREDITH 145 Oak St. Xewton Upper Falls Born July 31, 1899 ' arsity Football 3, 4; Varsity Track 2, 3, 4: Sec.-Treas. Xewton B. C. Club; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Ted Meredith is one of those men who possess that most wonderful of all combi- nations among young men, a good stu- dent, a fine athlete and a fellow with a heart as big as they make them. There you have him as he is, as we love him and as the world well knows him. Ted first cast his lot with Newton High School, where he was prominent, first as a stu- dent and then as an athlete, but he fin- ished his course at Boston College High School where he was a star member of Tom McCabe ' s track and football teams. In college Ted was a member of Cav ' s football squad in 1920 and 1921. Dur- ing the latter year he had his leg broken in a scrimmage and thus was rendered useless for the team. In 1920 and 1921 he was a member of the relay team representing the College and did well in upholding the honor brought to his name by the famous Ted Meredith of Pennsylvania. His most famous success came when Father McQuade crowned him the greatest Beadle of them all and Ted was one fine Sophomore Beadle. During the last two years he was Secretary-Treasurer of the iNewton B. C. Club and champion good fellow of the class. He was prominent in every line of college activity, always a hard worker and an attentive stu- dent. His work in the class room has been highly commendable; in fact, his name has always been found among those worthy of honorable mention. Page one hundred twentv-one FREDERICK MARK MORAN 32 Tower St., Forest Hills, Mass. Born Oct. 15, 1900 B. C. High School; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; B. C. Club of West Roxbury, President 4; Vice President B. C. Club of West Roxbury 3 ; Class Football 2. By his works ye shall know him. Seldom is Freddy heard to express hia opinion on anything. We say seldom be- cause occasionally and at great intervals Freddy does come forward to help clear things up when the case appears hopeless and the result is that Fred ' s opinion, when he deigns to offer it, commands respect. He is — well, to treat him generously — fluent with either tongue or pen. For the first three years of college life Freddy was learning how to run things relative to his West Roxbury B. C. Club and dur- ing his Senior year, as pilot of that far-famed organization, he conducted affairs according to his own whims and fancies. Under Fred ' s regime a pre- eminently successful year was enjoyed by the club. In the social end of the daily struggle Fred was noticeably present, with a poise which many seek and few acquire, amiable to all and a veritable genus leo amongst the restless sex. Although a stellar athlete, Fred was always of the opinion that there were others on the Heights superior to him. Only once have we witnessed friend Fred in action on Alumni Field and that was the memorable day of the celebrated Fresh-Soph rush in which the class of 1922 as Sophomores annihilated and literally wiped out the overwhelming hordes of unsophisticated Fresh- men. That was a battle for blood. However, we have always found Fred a corking good fellow, a wee bit better looking than the rest of us, pop- ular with the other half of the world because of this, a good student, affable and likeable. Freddy passed through his four years of college life and at the termination was booked, according to per- sistent rumor, for the Institution on the other side of Commonwealth Avenue. Game fish swim upstream, Fred, and we have no fear for your success in life for we have yet to find your superior as a gamester.

Club 2. 3 4: Slh Tlrri 4; Class Day 3; Fulton Debating Society 4. ■ Frank. a he is affectionately known. is an optimistic, gallant, debonair young man. He was born, and still resides, in the University City, a fact of which he is very proud. He has a winning way of always meeting everything with a cheerful smile. As an instance of this: Last Jan- uary Frank was rushed to the hospital one night and operated on for appendicitis. We went to see him in the hospital and he was still smiling. It was seven weeks be- fore he returned to our ranks, but he re- turned smiling and took the mid-years which he had missed, incidentally knock- ing them out the window. Frank is quite a debater and at various times he has held the attention of the members of the Fulton for many minutes, and anyone that can hold the attention of such men for even five minutes is a debater. Frank ' s speeches affect people differently though. During the peroration of one of them Jack Hayes had to leave the room on account of sickness. Up to his Senior year Frank ' was not very nnich addicted to jazz, but this year he started in and it is only with difficulty that we are able to watch his smoke for he has become a danseur de luxe. At the various parties his handsome features and his Chesterfieldian manners cause the fair sex to trip over one another in their desire to meet him. Frank, God bless you, we know that against your sunny disposition the hard, cold world hasn ' t a chance, and we shall say as we bid you good by, ' ' Abi. virum le judico. Page one hundred twenty-three ARTHUR LAWRENCE MORRISSEY 4 Richardson Terrace, Somerville Born Dec. 9, 1899 B. C. High 1918; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Prefect 2; Catholic Univ. of Amer- ica 2; Somerville B. C. Club 1, 3, 4; Vice Pres. 4; Glee Club 4: Sub Turri 4; B. C. K. C. Club 4. Of all these the bravest is Art Mor- rissey. He is, indeed, the blond beau- brummel from Somerville, possessing all the attributes and manly perfections that his shining countenance manifest to his classmates. Thus friendly Arthur, like the cultured knight of old, is continually seeking the novel in life. It was this mo- tive that prompted his brief sojourn at Catholic University during his Sophomore year. But Boston College appealed to his better judgment and he again enrolled ' neath the Towers as a Lover of Wisdom, a dyed in the wool philosopher and a refined Junior. Where the two Franks, Moriarty and Magennis, go there also Morrissey will be found. He is the link that binds the well-known trio and self styled Chance Club together. Art says, We are willing to take a chance if you will, and this was adopted as a motto of the club. As a psychologist Art has very few peers, and the most remarkable feature of this fact is that all his Psyc notes are copied on the backs of void and age old printed tickets, and then into a beautiful note book that is adorned with the most legible handwriting. This, indeed, is the secret of his success. Sweet, dulcet tones flow from his melodious voice like drops of water from a perennial fountain. Apart from this brief resume of Art ' s good disposi- tion and his good natured manner, Art is also very active in social circles in and around Somerville. He acts in the official capacity of Vice President of the Somerville Club. A profound silence pervades the club at its fort- nightly meetings in St. Catherine ' s Hall when Art ' s shrewd voice is raised in the furtherance of the big event of the season, that is, the annual Easter Tuesday Ball. Art ' s winning smile will surely win for him a place in the sun. Page one hundred twenty-four FRANK E. MORRISSEY Born October 1. 1899 232 Pleasant St.. Arlington, Mass. B. C.

Club; Smoker Arlington? anyone in the class would say, if you inquired about that town, let me see — oh yes — Frank Morrissey comes from there. And that is enough. Frank is no hick, no matter how insiainificant the town from which he hails. Someone has said that it were better to be a big man in a small town than a small man in a big town, and we thoroughly agree with this sentiment. Indeed, we maintain that Frank ' s fiery nature would give him individuality no matter where he happened to be. And so in our class Frank has always stood out as one to whom principles that were worth having were principles worth fighting for. For some reason or other — perhaps merely for excitement — Frank is inclined to be radical and it is rumored he has caused plenty of excitement at the meetings of the Arlington Post of the American Legion, where he is an active member, having served in the infantry during the Great War. We all remember the good work turned in by Frank when he played half back on the Junior class football team and was knocked out for a short while during the game. When he plays, he plays hard: when he works, he works hard, and now that the time has come for us all to get to work in earnest, we realize that Frank ' s quality of aggressive- ness, initiative and good humor will gain for him a place of honor. Frank, the world is your oyster. Page one hundred twenty-five LEO VINCENT MOTLEY 24 Thwing St., Roxbury, Mass. Born Oct. 12, 1900 C. High School; SodaUty 1, 2, 3, 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4: Marquette 1, 2; Roxbury B. C. Club 1 2, 3, 4; Secretary 4. Mr. Motley, late from Roxbury. How often have we heard those familiar words from the lips of our Sophomore professor, Father Keating. Leo was born in Sleepy Hollow on the birthday of Columbus, and he, too, can be called a discoverer, for he has found many ways to avoid the Dean and the Prefect of Discipline. He has been associated with various clubs during his col- lege course, including the Roxbury B. C. Club, and the success of its dances was due to a great extent to the work of Leo. He was an ardent member of the Greek Research Club, but was known to take great delight in the Happy-go-lucky Club. He is an optimist in the widest extent of the word and nothing ever bothers him except when he has a poor run in a championship match at Barrett ' s Pool Room. During the summers he delivered mail for Uncle Sam and every fall returned to us with newer and nobler ideals. In Freshman and Sophomore Leo was numbered among the leaders in scholastic honors. L. V. Motley was ever to be found in the annual College catalogue as the recipient of classic or mathematical awards. Leo was an ardent and loyal rooter for his Alma Mater ' s teams. Whether the game was at West Point, New Haven or Worcester, Leo ' s voice was certain to be heard from the motley crowd in the bleachers with a Come on, Jimmie old boy, you got the stuff. Yes, Leo was a true son of old B. C. Leo has worked hard for every class activity. The manner in which he has taken charge of social affairs during his college career speaks well for his business ability. Natural disposition and an ability to match are bound to gain success. The qualities are yours, Leo, you cannot miss the goal. Page one hundred twenty-six ARTHUR F. MULLIN 790 Main St.. Waltham, Mass. Burn April IS, 1S96 B, C. High School: Treasurer of Class 2. 3; K. r. Club 3. 4: Senior Smoker Committee 4: Sodality 1, 2, 3. 4. Step on il. Art, old kid. Boston to Marlboro in twenty-live minutes. Such is the record of Art MuUin, speed king of the class. During Sophomore year, when the class outing was held in Marlboro, some of the boys went over the road with Art, and although by now they are over the effect of such a harrowing experience, it was some time before many of them were able to resume the even tenor of their ways. But Art ' s coolness and cleverness is not restricted to scaring chickens from the path of his racing Marmon, but has been used to very good advantage by the class, when it elected him as Treasurer for two consecutive years. Notwithstanding the high price of gasoline and the exorbitant cost of the upkeep of the Marmon, the ac- count of his stewardship at the end of his term seemed very plausible. At least it was a neat report he turned in to President Doyle. As one of the renowned Triumvirate, composed, beside himself, of Jack Kelly and Hoke Smith, Art was to be seen daily in the lunchroom, rolling a cigar luxuriantly between his lips and planning on a little party for that night — probably in Roxbury. Who knows, perhaps con- gratulations may soon be in order. If part we must — and we cannot postpone this sorry day — it is with fondness that we remember Art, who was always ready to laugh at our jokes and yet to lend a ready ear to our troubles. The regard in which we, his classmates, hold him, is - I but a fitting result of the four years of unalloyed ' friendship he has given us. Page one hundred twenty-seven FRANK LEO MURPHY 79 Pleasant St., Dorchester, Mass. Born Jan. 17, 1899 Boston College High School; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: League of Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; K. of C. Club 3, 4; Boston College Club of Dorchester 1, 2, 3, 4. Frank graduated from B. C. H. and went right into the army. It was quite a jump from high school to the army but he managed to survive. After serving his term in the S. A. T. C. he enrolled at the College on the Heights. Although this interruption would or- dinarily turn one ' s mind from studying, he had little difficulty in passing on to Sophomore and Junior and finally to Senior. His record is indeed one to be proud of. Never has he been known to be in trouble of any nature at the Heights. Both the Faculty and student body have no words to offer in comment upon him except those of the highest praise. Particularly must we recognize his highest endeavors and efficient efforts for B. C. during her recent Drive. He labored incessantly and earnestly and was appointed captain of a number of workers. As a result of his labors many hun- dreds of dollars were added to the big sum. A favorite habit of Frank ' s is to meander home from school a pede. It is the common opinion among the Seniors that this habit was formed as a result of his close friendship with the well-rounded McDermott. It is rumored that Frank ' s future life lies in the little - pi red house across the road. If it does, we extend our hearty congratulations and best wishes for his success. And if it doesn ' t, we extend them anyway, so you see he ' s bound to have success if our wishes can bring it. i.P ' Page one hundred twenty-eight JOHN FRANCIS NORTON S Ware St., Dorchester. Mass.

Club 2. 3, 4: Sodality 1. 2, 3, 4; League of Sacred Heart 2. 3. 4 Coming from Boston Lulin .John liad no difBcully in becoming acquainted with our system at the Heights. His early train- ing in the classics was so well carried out in High School that he experienced no difficulty in passing through Freshman and Sophomore, in fact he was among the leaders. His uncanny ability to translate Latin and Greek led many to believe him to be a son of old Rome or Greece. In the perusal of Philosophy he was equally successful; Cosmology and all other ' ol- ogies holding no tear for him. Yet despite his great ease in mastering his studies his voice was seldom heard in class. He was always a good listener, but seldom gave voice to his own opin- ions. Quiet as he was, he always had a pleasant greeting and made friends with everyone. John ' s chief source of pleasure and amusement was his pipe and to this must be attributed his cool and even poise of mind. Under the soothing in- fluence of this ever present companion he was never known to become excited. As far as college activities were concerned he was always present to lend a hand. He upheld his name in athletics by playing a slashing tackle on the Senior foot- ball team, with which the Juniors refused to enter mortal combat. John was imbued with such an ardent love for his Alma Mater that he was always on hand to cheer her athletic, scholastic or forensic representatives on to vic- tory. John accompanied our football warriors to New Haven, and our intercollegiate debaters to Worcester, in fact, whatever the contest, if the Old Maroon and Gold had voice in it, John was always there with his old cry, Get in there and fight. As John has taken the past so will he take the future, so none need worry as to how he ' ll come out. With his peaceful air and quiet manner he ' ll face everything and he ' ll never quit until he has mastered it. Page one hundred twenty-nine JOHN JOSEPH NYHAN, JR. 77 Brington Rd., Brookline, Mass.

Just why this nickname has been given to him we have never been able to find out, but the fait is that it is in no way a sign of his nature. Rather should we judge him by his slow quizzical smile, which seems to say, Sometimes the world seems good, sometimes not so good, but I am the same as ever. Yes, Jinx is an optimist and those dark days of Sophomore when Greek, Chemistry and Physics conspired to drive the calmest of us to despair, this lad would smile when curses might be excused. But don ' t think for a moment that when we say easy-going we mean lazy. This outward appearance is merely a mask behind which is the real Jinx, steady and steadfast in gaining the end for which he works. In the classroom, as well as on the athetic field, his success has been due in large measure to his making difficulties look easy. And after all, the man really worth while in this life is not he who blusters and blows to let everyone know that he is in the act of accomplishing something, but the one who, when his work is done, and congratulations are in order, continues to smile and look for other fields to conquer. Such a one is Jinx Nyhan and we congratulate him, and we know even while we congratulate that he lives not in the past but in the all-absorbing present, where there is work to be done, in which he is willing and capable of doing his share. Blessings on you, Jinx old boy, they don ' t come better. Page one hundred thirty EDMUND G. O ' BRIEN 63 Mt. Auburn St., Camliridge, Mass. Born Oct. 14, 1898 Hockey 1, 2: Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Mar- quette 2; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3. 4; Cambridge B. C. Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Above, benign reader, we offer to your appraising eye the noble and honest coun- tenance of Eddie of the Harvard Gold Coast, Eddie of the B. C. Hockey team, and the same Eddie, clog dancer of note. Before lavishing any more names of the first of the O ' Brien brothers from the Uni- versity City, we shall explain more fully each of the aforesaid cognomens. The Gold Coast is his home, in Claverly Hail of Harvard Square, and in this vicinity Eddie is best known for his large Elk button and his quiet and even manner. He is not noted for loud and conspicuous presence, but is more on the reserved type of silent plugger. And as for possessing the collegiate mannerisms of Cambridge, Eddie is the champion. The B. C. Hockey team knows him as the ever faithful and efficient guardian of the net and we venture to state that not many hostile pucks slipped by his eagle eye in 1919, when Eddie found time to play for Alma Mater on the ice. Then we have admired and wondered at the nimbleness of foot which Eddie exhibited on various occasions during his four years as a dancer. The team of O ' Brien and O ' Brien have demonstrated some fancy steps to the Class of ' 22. About the Heights, Eddie has been more or less con- fined to the laboratory in his Science course, but here he was in his glory when Ed. Bell attempted to dilate on some subject of intellectual worth. Eddie O ' Brien usually gave the retort by a denial of all principles of reasoning, wherefore Bell, in maddened fury, ceased. To the world at large, we recommend Eddie as a care- ful, consistent man, and an ambitious student. He may not do his work in a riot of talk and ceremony, but he does it, effectively and well. Page one hundred thirty-one NELSON JAMES O ' BRIEN 63 Mt. Auburn St., Cambridge, Mass. Born September 4, 1900 Boston College High School ; Foot- ball 2, 3; Varsity Football 4; Stu- dent Council 4; Hockey Squad 2, 3, 4. Yes, Nelson is Ed ' s brother, and the family is to be doubly congratulated on its representatives. Nelson has always been a booster for Boston College — in- deed he has need to be for he hails from Cambridge, the home also of fair Har- vard. But we need never fear for this youth, for he has strong ideas of his own and, what is more, has the happy faculty of knowing how to express them force- fully and earnestly. We may state here that some of his views are inclined to be cynical but maybe this is merely a pose suited to his air of being a man of the world and a casual observer of human nature in all its phases. Nevertheless, during our Senior year Nelson has been the center of many a discussion on the philosophy of life; and the benefits of these wordy battles, conducted outside the classroom, cannot be over-emphasized. But it was not his merit in Philosophy that won the varsity B for Nelson, but the game he played at centre on the football team. Though handicapped by a lack of weight, he made up for this by fight and knowledge of the game. His classmates showed their confidence in him during Senior year, when he was elected class representative in the Students Ath- letic Council. Thus, it is easy to see that Nelson, with all his duties as an athlete, a practical philosopher and a member of the Athletic Council, did not have any too much time left to pursue the study of his favorite author, Dante, but such time as he did spend on this study, he felt was well worth the trouble. We understand that Nelson is going into the wool business after graduating. Upon reviewing his qualifi- cations, chief among which are his coolness and de- termination, it is easy to see that he will make his way in the business world.

If silence is golden Bill is a gold mine, and as fellows go, we ' ll say he is. Bill, however doffs this sombre cloak of reticence in the bowling alley where he becomes as boisterous as a babv with a new rattle. Bill can bowl, smoke cigars, and walk like Sherlock Holmes. Bill comes from South Boston, noted for its aquarium, L street and B. C. Club. Nor does Bill forget his little hamlet when he emigrates from it every day, for when Bill converses he always puts in a word or two, publishing the glory of this historic spot. Bill is an addict to L street, and has induced quite a few of the boys to join him in his plunges into the briny. When the days become the least bit warm Bill gathers his natators together and leads them over the road to L street. Consequently, Bill has the tan of a South African before the rest of us have a sunburnt nose. We ' ll now examine our subject from a more serious aspect. Bill wants to be a doctor. Ergo, test-tubes, forceps, germs, and rabbits are his playthings till evening marks the close of day. Bill works hard, in fact, harder than the rest of us. We give him credit for it. He listens with the acuteness of a fox-hound to the lectures in class while the more frivolous are re- cuperating from the night before. Bill gets the full value of his tuition, and although not a grind, he absorbs all that education offers him. A man with that spirit can find nothing but success in any profession. In conclusion we may say that Bill is somewhat mys- terious, a little more studious than the average, a pal of Hogan and Norton, and a good doctor in the making. Page one hundreri thirty-three FLORENCE M. O ' CONNELL 76 Park St., Arlington, Mass. Born August 17, 1899 Arlington High School; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Varsity Hockey 1, 2; B. C. Club of Arlington 2, 3, 4; Marquette 2; Fulton 3, 4; Class Insignia Com- mittee 4. From the moment Flo entered our class we were aware that we had with us a man of upright character and singular personality, which, because of his reti- cence could only be discerned by a close observation of his numerous activities. Though Flo talks infrequently, we know that he is well able to speak. As a member of the Marquette he won free- dom for Ireland, and for two years led the Irish citizens of Arlington wherein he makes his home. Flo has other distinctions beside his forensic ability and retiring manner. He was a member of the varsity hockey team during his Freshman and Sophomore years, and his work as a goal tend was highly commendable. His opponents were seldom successful in their at- tempt to cage the rubber while he guarded the net. Flo is also one of our very best students. His work in the class-room has always been of such a grade as to be worthy of honorable mention all through his college course. Al- ways smiling with a happy greeting for everybody it is not hard to realize how popular he is in his home town. We are ignorant of what Flo intends to do after leaving the shadows of the towers, but we are sure his smile, his pleasant dis- K « k a position, his mental and physical abilities together with t ' m f his willingness to work, will carry him through to suc- cess.

Born April 27. lilOO Boston College High School; Sodal- ity 1. 2. 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2: League of the Sacred Heart. Everyone that knows John, also knows that he took his college course as calmly as Jesse James stuck up a bank messen- ger. You couldn ' t ruffle him even with one of Barney Malone ' s two teaspoonful- an-hour blasts. The gang of unknown celebrities in that famous painting in the Senior classroom could start a game of ring-round-Rosy and our hero wouldn ' t bat an eye. Immobility! Ye Gods! He had the Sphinx looking like a piker. Yet we have a hunch that when he paddles down the drive with his mutton-hide un- der his arm, he will go out and pull a stunt that will make the world and sub- urbs sit up and take notice. Arson or something. Whatever it is it will be big. Enough of the ' ride. Every morning he came in from the wilds of Wel- lesley on foot or in the car. He never made much of a row when he got here, so we can ' t make much of one writing about him. When you penetrated his habitual reserve as we did (almost), you would find that beneath his calm and dignified exterior he concealed, from innate modesty, a heart and mind befit- ting in the strictest sense. . . .a true Christian gentleman. There are not many people that we can say this about outside of our own class. As a student he was not giving Bill Roche a rub, nor did he rank with the tail-enders. He was swung in some- where in the middle. He was no debater. Neither are we. No athlete either. Also us. He and we were in that large majority that the leaders call the class. We stood shoulder to shoulder during four years. We didn ' t burst forth into poetry like Carey or into brain- storms like Foley, but we paid our class dues and we hollered for the glory of the greatest class that ever was in at Boston College. And in this, our zero hour of parting, we stop for the moment to think. . . . Well, if it wasn ' t for us.... well, this wonderful book would be a page shorter anyhow. ±- Page one hundred thirty-five DENNIS N. F. O ' LEARY 134 Gushing Ave., Dorchester, Mass. Born December 12, 1900 Boston College High School: Secre- tary B. C. Club of Dorchester 4; B. C.-K. of C. Club 3, 4: Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Class Football 2, 3, 4; Class Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4. A small man with a big heart, one who knows no fear and hesitates before no difficulty however great. Dinny in his high school days spent at B. C. High, was the talk of the school. Although tipping the scales at less than one hundred and twenty pounds, Dinny aspired for a posi- tion on the school football team. His work was a revelation both to the coach and to most of the squad and despite his size he led the quarter-backs. Dinny also held down an infield pos- ition on the high school nine. In college sports he was less successful because of his lack of weight, but always repres- ented the class in every activity during his four years on the Heights. He has little to say but is always ready and willing to help out in any social activity. Perhaps his worst habit is his love for the study of the Divine Comedy of Dante. Dinny has been known to peruse the works of this poet of the ages for hours at a time. Be that as it may we all feel sure that Dennis will soon out- grow these childish habits and confine his efforts to the near future, when he will be tossed out upon the cold and cruel world, to combat the forces of Materialism etc. The path to success is a road beset with difficulties but there is no question but that a spirit as indomitable as Dinny ' s will overcome every obstacle. Dinny, we are with you, have the same old fight and spirit and your success is assured. Page one hundred thirty-six LIONEL LOUIS PLOUFFE 82 Hamilton St., Southbridge, Mass. Born September 10, 1S99 Assumption College High; Fabre L ' lub 3, 4; Science Club 4; Sodality 2, 3, 4. Gentle reader gaze upon this picture and reflect. Here is a man. He is un- deniably a handsome man. In fact, if perchance you are a woman, you might call him pretty. Note with interest please, the alabaster forehead and the hazel eyes. This is the picture of, (I shall not hold you in suspense I the local rep- resentative of the illustrious family of Ploufl ' e, whose headquarters and general distributing plant is in the ancient city of Sout ' Bridge, Mass.,. . . .next to the op- tical works. One day, when our Junior year was still in short trousers, Lionel dropped off the back of a city bound truck and toiled into the Dean ' s office to register. He has been with us ever since, and the fair sisterhood of Brighton, Newton and Watertown have been swooning in his path in alarming numbers. But doth this gallant Lothario reck the toll of wrecks that he is leaving in his wailing wake? Nay, his ambition is soaring on to the day when he will saunter into the aforemen- tioned Sout ' bridge with his muttonhide under his arm and will proceed with studied ease up the main drag before the admiring gaze of the town girls and the jealous swains. We predict that inside of an hour he will be the chief topic of conversation at the general store and in less than a week he will be elected town crier or mayor or something. We would like to comment upon the intellectual qual- ities of this individual. Lionel is a Biologian and has dissected, dismembered and destroyed more spiders, caterpillars, pleurococci, dead cats and other insects than most of us have ever seen. In the words of I Shakespeare: He may not be much with a type- writer, but with a cleaver, he ' s a ' wiz ' . And the gemmun who picks the remains of his onslaughts from the walls and ceilings after the melee is over is inclined to agree with Wm. We will sum up this in your own words, Leo, briefly and to the point, ■■rm a college feller. :y ' Page one hundred thirty-seven CHESTER ANDREW PRIOR 371 Cherry St., West Newton, Mass. Born August 29, 1900 Newton Classical High School; Mar- quette 1, 2; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; New- ton B. C. Club, Vice-President 3, Pres. 4. Chet ' s is the modest disposition that glories in accomplishment and is satisfied to have others glean the praise of his en- deavors. A true scholar, his school work was surpassed only by his smile. He is an earnest advocate of all that is worthy in social life and by working in conjunc- tion with smiling Gal in Somerville, Waltham and Newton he has brought a great deal of social prestige to our class. While separated from Gal, Chet was luring Dud, the golfer, away from his books to mingle in the whirl of society. We are sure Chet will be as great a suc- cess in Society as Dud will be in the Church. Possessing an inexhaustible sup- ply of ability and grit, this covered by his quiet way, has made him the idol of the fair sex as well as our own. For the last two years he has been the most prominent member of the Newton B. C. Club and this year, as its president, he has guided it to its greatest success. From the very beginning Chet was a good student but it would be incongruous with his nature and generous disposition to give entire attention to his studies and so at every class activity he was present even at the finish of that famous banquet at the Hotel Victoria, to say nothing of the class outing. Blending his powers and qualities into a happy harmony we have a friend well worth having. As to his future we are altogether in the dark, but whatever it is, Chet will represent us well.

Horn August 29. 1900 St. John ' s Preparatory School; Glee Club 2, 3; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, 4; Radio Club 3, 4: Secretary of Peabody B. C. Club 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. This husky young chap wandered into B. C. from St. Johns Prep, where he starred as a regular on the varsity foot- ball, baseball and hockey teams. Sort of a silent fellow is Tommie nevertheless his true worth has always been recognized in the class. Though content to leave the arguments of the pros and cons of things to other fellows, when called upon himself he was not found wanting. He is a regular fellow and is always ready with a cheery word, quite the handy man for doing the cheerful deed. He has a pleasant way of taking things easy, smiling at impending disaster, and making firm friends. Somehow or other Tommie never bothered much with athletics on the Heights outside of a few class affairs, yet he was always there to encourage those who were fighting on the field for Alma Matei ' . He has confined the major part of his activities to the Radio Club, of which he was an active member. Most of his social activities have been confined to the B. C. Club of Peabody, whose growth and splendid success have been mostly due to the efforts of quiet Tommy. No one remained long in ignorance of the natural beauties, of the great business activities, and of most everything paradisal in that great town of Peabody, and really most of us think it must be a great town, for Tommy , is a great fellow. ' ' One complaint alone can we issue against Tommie, that is his reticence and quietude. About his future, we have no knowledge, but we feel assured that whatever he takes up in life will be a success, and the best wishes of his classmates go with him. Page one hundred thirty-nine JAMES PH ILLIP REYNOLDS 54 Ballard St., Newton Center, Mass. Born June 1, 1901 Newton High School; Newton B. C. Club 2, 3, 4; Philomatheia Ball Com- mittee 4; Musical Clubs 3, 4; Sod- ality 1, 2, 3, 4. Smiling Jimmy is one of the good look- ing boys of the class. With golden hair and blushing cheeks he has always been the idol of the fair sex. On a gloomy day it was just like having the sun with us, to have Jimmy around, and many pleas- ant hours have we spent with him. His greatest delight was in helping Gal an- noy the Class treasurer. Jim has one great fault, he is inclined to underesti- mate his own ability — a rare failing these days. He can write poetry, he is the very essence of a poet and yet has refused to give us the benefit of his ability while he allows some of his unpoetic friends to turn out mere rhythmical verse. Jim is possessed of a genuine college spirit and has always given support and assistance to every class activity. His great efforts on the Philomatheia Ball Committee helped make that affair the great success it was. His favorite sports are play- ing tennis and driving that Flivver of his; the latter he can make almost talk. Some say he is going to follow his genial brother Tom up the Hudson; others say he is going to the Sem, but I really think that he will get married, settle down, and be a poet for life. So now we can say to the Poet as a classmate we have found you kind and consistent and we join in wishing you the best that man can be given and the years of life in which to enjoy it. Page one hundred forty THOMAS J. RILEY 132 South St., Waltham. Mass. Born November 30. 1900 Waltham High Si-hool ; B. C. Club of Waltham: Secretary 3, 4; Sodality and League of Sacred Heart. Tom I iloy is quite a humorist. Be- yond his secretaryship for two years in the B. C. Club of Waltham, he says he has done nothing worthy of note. Even Tom, with all his talent, cannot make his classmates believe that, and even if this gentleman had not been an honor student each year, still there would be numerous arguments to contra- dict his modesty. Tom and Bill Roche have been intimate pals throughout their course. That, per- haps is suflficient in itself. But there is much more to say about our Waltham chum and the only limitation is the small- ness of this page. Here we have a fellow who was never an ens ut sic to us — we have always known Tom Riley. We first were attracted to him by his genial smile and after that his personality was sufficient to hold us. Tom was never loquacious. He preferred to listen, still he was ready to be pleasant in conversation. A twinkling eye, an honest face and a lively smile added meaning to what he said and guaranteed his words as genuine. We have an idea or two as to what Tom will do when he leaves his classmates behind but we prefer to keep our opinions to ourselves. If our opinions come out right we ' ll let you know about it; if they should fail to mature then no one will be the wiser. But you can believe this much — Tom is going to be a credit to old B. C. Vvhal more could anyone ask? Page one hundred forty-one WILLIAM J. ROCHE 58 Packard ' s Lane, Quincy, Mass.

Ladieeees and (gentlemen, you are now gazing upon the justly famous, the one and the only original and the last in the world, whose name has been recited from pole to pole, the wonder of the age and the marvel of all time, William J., com- monly known among the intellectuals as Bill Roche, the last of the once mighty tribe, the Scholastic Philosophers. Gaze upon him as you would upon a reincarna- tion of the marvel of antiquity, Aristotle! His mind has stalked into the present ma- terialistic dav like a cat into an aviary. He has scattered the false doctrines so that they are fading like a pink shirt in a rainstorm. He has the entire world hanging upon his words like loafers around a poolroom. Even the trains whistle as they pass by his town. And even this is not all. Nay, not all. You would think that being so busy refuting the Positivists, Empiricists, Evolutionists, Materialists and Machinists that he would have little time for aught else. Nay, nay — fie, fie. Early in December, A. D. 1921, this marvel wrote a love story with one hand while knocking Kant dead with the other. Upon hearing this news the corpse of William Shakespeare was known to have turned over three or four times. Then, in the spring. Bill took a trip to death ' s door with friend Pneumonia and two days after he came back to class startled the college by grabbing one of the highest marks in the class in the Natural Theology final. We can say no more. Whazzat? Oh yes, he was from B. C. Twenty -two, you know. Page one hundred forty two Vi ' ILLIAM E. ROWLANDSON Lowell, Mass. Born September 30, 1899 Lowell High School; Track 1, 2, 3, 4; B. C. Club of Lowell; Science Club B. C— K. C. Club; Sodality 1. 2, 3, 4. Up to this page you have beheld many and various faces, and have been thrilled, more or less, by the owners thereof, but here we reserve space for our own, the world ' s greatest Rolli. Born amidst the hum and buzz of Lowell ' s gigantic looms, he has acquired that scientific in- stinct which has marked him as the eighth wonder of the world, the pride of Lowell, and withal a man of parts. Boston College first felt his powerful influence when the Kaiser abdicated in J 918 upon hearing that Rowlandson had joined the S. A. T. C. Then, after solv- ing the theory of relativity to his own satisfaction, he tackled the science course on the Heights, which labor has kept him almost incessantly in the blithesome lab- oratories, where we have watched him for four years assaulting the various elements and compounds. Of course, recreation is necessary, and Bill added laurels to his ambitious nature by tossing his slender figure high above Mother Earth in the specialty known in the athletic world as the pole vault. He certainly could attain most dizzy heights with the pole, and can prove his aptitude at this branch of sport by numerous medals which have given Alma Mater many points in the meets of the past. Optimism is a synonym of Rowlandson. Whenever we cautiously entered the scene of a deadly exam and waited for the fatal count, Rolli kept up the morale by orating on the ease and simplicity of the subject, if attacked in a certain method, which method was to knock it out of the window, quoting his sunny and confident war cry. We have wondered at the knowledge of various subjects which he demonstrates, and the con- clusion is that he is a student of the first order. If plugging means anything for success, we expect to see ' Rolli on top; if welcome companionship brings loyal friends, he will have a goodly share. Certainly we recommend him to the world as a worker and good fellow. Page one hundred forty-three JAMES ARTHUR RYAN, JR. 7 Martin St., Medford Hillside, Mass.

C. Club 3; Chairman Insignia Com- mittee 4; Associate Editor Sub Turri 4; Fulton Debating Society 3. This picture belongs to weighty Jim Ryan, the class heavyweight. Although taking up more room than anyone else, Jimmie ' s quiet presence and disposition has made all of us believe in the old adage, Still water runs deep. We were convinced of this in the Marquette when we listened to his earnest and convincing orations. For he was quite a speaker un- til his numerous social engagements wooed him away from his avocation. In fact he was elected vice-president of the Marquette and at the same time put across one of the best socials in the history of the debating society. Jim was boss of the insignia gang and had a right merry time chasing the boys for orders. After he got the orders he had to chase them again to collect. But as in all things he persevered and finally staged the last round-up. Organization was his forte. He was one of the chief instigators of the plan to form a Medford B. C. Club and he takes a great deal of blame for its inauguration. As secretary of the club he did yoeman work and the brilliance and success of the socials of this club were largely due to his untiring efforts. In predicting Jim ' s success we must bear in mind that his ethical ideas and principles stamp him as an unmiti- gated Tutiorist. Prescinding from this fact we feel safe in saying that Jim ' s persistency and determination will carry him to the top rung of the ladder.

High School: Marquette 1, 2: Class Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Fulton 3, 4: Glee Club 2, 3: Sodality 1, 2. 3, 4. Daniel J. Scully was born in Quincy twenly-one years ago and is still seen there every day doing his usual after-break- fast sprint for the 7.45 train, which he misses about five times a week — and six times when Father McHugh has his name on the Saturday list. Dan is an exacl facsimile of his father who was at one time the best handball player in Ireland. The only difference between Dan and his father is that Dan has a middle initial which his father hasn ' t, and his father has a liking for hard work which Dan hasn ' t. Dapper Dan — as he is known to sev- eral hundred telephone operators of the Quincy, Milton, South Weymouth and East Braintree exchanges — is a veritable bookworm. He was unanimously elected class grind by his classmates to whom his bookish propensities are well known. It is reported that Dan is starting a library, and immediately after school closes will literally bury himself in the books. ' ' Dan, however, has interests in life other than books. One of them lives quite near his (father ' s) house. He says he has known her all his life. They grew up together, you know. In the winter Dan ' s time is about equally divided between the libraries and the telephone booths. He spends his summers bathing in the sun at L street, but never misses his cold morning plunge into the quarry hole behind his house. Immediately after graduation Dan intends to start on a tour of Euro| e and the Holy Land, providing that he receives a check for his services in the Sacco-Vanzetti, the Cunningham, and other murder cases. Upon his return from Europe he will not enter the Seminary. Page one hundred forty-five 10 RALPH JOSEPH SHEA 34 Evelyn St., JMattapan, Mass.

Club 4: Student Ath- letic Council 4. The shades of night were falling fast as a tall, florid-complexioned individual emerged from the fumes of the labora- tory to inhale again the pure air of Moth- er Nature — ' twas none other than Ralph Shea, chemist a la aces who had just com- pleted the analysis of a hockey puck. Ralph ranks with our best lab fiends; spending hours ascertaining the cause of chemical phenomena. With the scientific aspect of a Pasteur he busies himself in the laboratory, that he might some day discover the constitution of an ion, or originate some new chemical formulae. Ralph, however, tore himself away from the lure of the chemicals long enough to manage a championship hockey team. He showed the way for Pilot Hughes and the rest was easy sailing. We had the best hockey team in the East so Ralph must be the best manager in the East. We don ' t deny it. Ralph is there. He helped George Brown make a success of Hockey at the arena this year. George got the money — Ralph got more — the Varsity B. The Goddess Terpsichore also has a special hold on Ralph and at all the College dances he has scintillated with the resplendence of Beau Brummel, for Ralph dresses very neatly at all times. Ralph will probably enter Technology after gradua- tion, specializing in Chemistry. If he doesn ' t enter Tech he will probably buy the Arena. If he fools us and does neither of these things he will not go to the poor house. Page one hundred forty-six WILLIAM J. SHEEHAN 21 Gray St.. rambridge, Mass.

Behold the smiling, fair-faced, curlv- haired Adonis of the clas.s. None other than Hercules Bill from the University city across the winding Charles. Bill has become famous by his untiring efforts in his enviable position of doorman. When anyone knocks at the classroom door Rill with his curly hair and blushing face is al- ways sure to greet the knocker. After a few minutes of conversation in the hall outside Bill strides up to the professor with the official notices in his hand. Some are good to hear and others not so agree- able, but bv watching Bill ' s countenance just before the Prt one can tell whether the news is pleasant or not. Bill is a very good student and philosophy is his specialty. No distinction is too delicate, no proof too obscure for the keen mind of this noted phil- osopher. He is a very voluminous speaker, the art of which he acquired by his associations with Pick during the past few summers. But Bill ' s activities have not been wholly intellectual, for his fair form has often graced our athletic field. Under the guiding hand of Coach Ryder he has developed into a great discus thrower. Bill has certain thoughts of becoming a wrestler and we are sure, if he enters the game, the Poles and Greeks will have to bow to Adonis the Celt. But wrestling or not. whatever line our fair Adonis enters he will be an overwhelming success and we wish him the best of luck. reads the notice Page one hundred forty-seven CORNELIUS T. H.

Connie has always been a mystery to most of the class because they did not truly know him. His deep voice, accompanied with his burly form and that camera, were all that they knew of him — yes, they only knew of him as the college photographer. No event ever took place, no athlete ever did anything worth while on the Heights that missed the eagle eye of Connie and his camera. How of- ten in the Boston papers have we read under a unique and brilliant picture the words, Photo by Sherlock. This phase is only the minor part of his well devel- oped character. To really know him you must sit with him in Symphony Hall and listen to the Third Symphony of Brahms or go with him to the Opera House and enjoy Verdi ' s Aida. Then he will explain to you the beautiful in its most elusive and difficult forms, his interpretations making the loftiest of music easy of comprehension. He stands for what is sound, lofty and beautiful in music opposed to shallow, melodramatic, popular trivialities. A fact unknown to most of us, he is himself an artist on the piano, an impersonal artist, who having lived through joy and sorrow, has both in his hands, can use them like the right and the left. Devot- ing part of his time to concert work and piano teach- ing and another part of it to the art of photography, one wonders where he gets the time to devote to his college course. Yet he is among the leaders in his class. We are sure success will crown the future of the deep and versatile Connie and that he will make a name for him- self anions men and musicians.

Club 1, 2. 3, 4: Secretary 3; ' ice Presi- dent 4: As.suciate Editor Sun Turki 4. Walter heard the screech of the eagle while attending St. Mary ' s College at Or- chard Lake, Michigan, so he joined our class in 1919. At St. Mary ' s he played in the infield of the varsity nine and also played basketball. When Walter came here he took the pre-med course and, con- sequently, didn ' t have time to show his proficiency in athletics. He had plenty of opportunity to keep in condition chas- ing trains. Commuting from Taunton ev- ery dav is no comic sketch, especially when one has to collect the eggs and milk the cows, but Walter did it without missing a train or dropping an egg. Walter is a very brilliant student, especially in biology and chemistry. But- tons, door-knobs and rubber boots were analyzed to perfection by Walter in the chem lab as he wielded the reagent bottles with the skill of an expert bar- tender. In biology he accurately discerned the minute blood vessels and nerves of the hairy-footed fuss-fuss, or the cilia of the Streptococci. None of his re- searches could be made, however, without a mouthful of gum. Walter chews the succulent spearmint inces- santly. Walter aspires to the medical profession, most prob- ably surgery. To question his success would be friv- olous, therefore we ' ll only await the time when Dr. Skwarlo is operating on the bankbooks of the people of Taunton. We surely have enjoyed Walter ' s tales of Taunton and his learned dissertations on Bacteriology, and it is with the greatest regret that we bid him farewell — for a time.

Boston English High; Sodahty 1, 2, 3, 4; Consultor; Librarian of Mus- ical Clubs; Manager of Glee Clubs; Brighton- Allston B. C. Club; Chair- man Senior Smoker Committee 4. Many of the members of the Class of ' 22 are blessed with a cheerful disposition. Behold Henry Hoke Smith, whose con- firmed opinion is that the end of human life is to spread good cheer. Hoke re- gards every one as a friend and the obvi- ous result is that everyone looks upon him as a friend. Breezy and confident without being for- ward Hoke is liked by his professors no less than by his fellow students, whose ap- preciation of his pranks was equalled only by his own enjoyment of the fun resulting. And he was obliging. Everyone in his sophomore class remembers how he vol- unteered to repair the electric light for his professor. Of course, it happened to be Henry who had tampered with it, but how was the professor to know this as he thanked him very graciously? As may be seen from the record above, the Senior Class showed their faith in Henry by choosing him as Chairman of the Senior Smoker Committee. Hoke carried through his duties very well and, as the papers say, a good time was had by all. But alas, the days rolled by and as Henry continued to smoke fragrant cigars in place of his former Sweet Caporals there were many sighs of envy. We might forgive and forget the mysterious acquisition of the cigars but when he became manager of the Glee Club, that society with the fell purpose of torturing the ears of those who are condemned to listen to its warbling, here was insult added to injury. But in good times or bad, Hoke ' s smile is just as easy, his hand-clasp just as warm and if the combination of sincerity and affability count for anything then we feel certain that Dame Fortune will smile on Hoke as he smiles on the world.

Although Eugene speaks litlle. the few words he does utter propound vol- umes in themselves — words of learned length and ponderous meaning. Old So- lon himself must turn over in his grave at the terms of thunderous sound that Gene gives forth. However, his happy smile is never ab- sent and his sunny personality brings light and warmth into every atmosphere. Gene ' s presence is ever welcome and he is one man we all can safely assert is without an enemy. It is the natural trait of human nature to have both friends and enemies but we can say with certainty that our bashful South Bostonian possesses countless friends but nary an enemy. Gene, as Secretary of the South Boston B. C. Club, greatly assisted in boosting the Maroon and Old Gold in the Peninsula district. More than one Freshman and Sophomore, attracted to University Heights, owes his good fortune to Gene ' s advice and admonitions. Do we know what category Gene will be classed in next year? Perhaps we haven ' t absolute certitude, but it is very probable that for the next five years he will be wearing the sombre black of the Seminary across the . venue. Adios, Gene, Student, Gentleman and Friend. The memory of your companionsliip at old B. C. will linger long in the hearts of all.

C. Club 3, 4. We have in our class men from Lowell, Lawrence, Worcester, and all the different suburbs of Boston, but to Jimmie Sullivan belongs the unique honor of being the only member from Boston ' s far-famed Back Bay. Situated as he is in the heart of Boston, the home of culture and the seat of learning, small wonder then that his college education rests lightly on his capable shoulders. Curly haired, rather freckled, keen and active, Jim seems to be a regular fellow. And his appearance is not deceiving, for those who know him are well aware of his worth hidden behind a careless exterior. He may be serious, but when he and his crony, Jinks Nyhan, get together, the fireworks begin — witness Fr. McGarvey, Sophomore professor. He used to condescend to make his august appearance at the Fulton, and if, as the best authors say, silence is golden, then Jim is the wealthiest of us. But in the famous B. C. drive, he did noble work, and must have talked very fast to get money from his reluctant neighbors in the cosmopolitan Back Bay. Now the drive is over, and college days are almost over, but life is just beginning for Jim, and if his future progress has the same marks as his auspicious beginning made with us, then we doubt not as to the outcome of a life well spent and worth living.

After a brilliant career at our own pre- paratory school, Tom Sweeney continued his scintillating career on the Heights and we may say right here that we are more than glad to have had him with us through our four years ' happy sojourn ' neath the towers. Quiet and reflective, never bois- terous and always calm, yet he has a keen sense of humor that accounts for the many friends he makes wherever he goes. Tom ' s ruling passion is golf and many a mile he strolls in pursuit of the little white pill which is said to keep John D. Rockefeller and Woodrow Wilson in con- dition. Almost all of this healthy youth ' s spare time is given over to outdoor ex- ercise, and indoor sports have very little attraction for Thomas C. Of what importance is dancing? Tom inquires as he takes his place in the front row of the tenors in the college glee club. Yes, wherever the glee club goes, there is Tom and never singing so heartily as when Hail, Alma Mater is the theme. In class, Dorchester ' s Jesse Guilford shines with unusual brightness and no one can remember when Tom gave an unsatisfactory recitation. His answers are al- ways clear, concise and to the point, and when the results of examinations are announced we lesser lights are prone to blush with shame at our own ignorance, and at the same time with pride at having such a good student among us as Tom. For the sake of self culture, Tom annexed his name to the roster of the Marquette and Fulton debating so- cieties, and to say the least, the marked improvement in both eloquence and oratory was well pronounced. We are loath to say good by to Tom, a silent and clever man, a happy and helpful companion, but most of all a man. Adios, Tom.

Brae Burn Club, Presi- dent; Sodality 1. 2, 3, 4; Musical Clubs 3, 4; Have you ever met a fellow who is per- fectly satisfied with the world, whom noth- ing disturbs and yet who is unequalled in bringing lofty speculation down to prac- tical usage. If not then meet him as the tallest member of the West Newton dele- gation, the inimitable Dud. He smiles all day and yet is one of our most serious members. Unequalled were his great lec- tures to Bunny of Tigertown, Gal and Chet on Women. Remember, Dud said, a woman never really cares for you until you have ceased to care for her. By that time you do not care whether she smiles or not. All women are quite unreasonable, inconsistent — etc. By such lectures Dud has exerted quite an influence on the gang. He has Chet on the road to Bachelordom, Gal on the road to Matrimony and Bunny on the road to Holy Orders. While a prominent member of the B. C. — K. C. Club and the Newton B. C. Club, yet he attained his greatest success as President of the B. C. Brae Burn Club. For official duties he mixed manual labor now and then with a round of golf, in which sport he is the champion of the class. He also exercised great paternal care over the other officers of the club, namely, our honest treasurer and the champ of Tiger- town. With a cheery countenance, a hearty laugh and a large heart he spent his happy hours among us, and as he is headed for the Church, we must reluctantly leave him on the road to success. Page one hundred fifty-four PAUL JEROME THAYER Lubi B.irn Jiil Maine. 18% Lubec High School: St. Charles Col- lege, Maryland : League of the Sacred Heart 4: Sodality 4; Newton Boston College Club. No one in Senior has ever heard of Lubec but when we asked Paul he winked signifi- cantly and said, It ' s only a stone ' s throw from the Canadian border. ' He further told us that Lubec had two things to be proud of — its sardine factories and Paul Thayer. Paul is a new member of the class of ' 22. Originally he was a ' 21 man but when L ' ncle Sam needed a few real men for the navy Paul went. Rumor has it th at Paul cut quite a figure in navy blue and that like all sailors had a girl in every port. Quite a character is Mr. Thayer. Although quiet in class he is anything but taciturn after the chimes ring two-thirty and classes are dismissed. Then he is one of the wittiest and brightest of our whole number. In fact, Lubec is his only failing and he is perfectly willing to disown that. My misfortune but not my fault, is the way Paul puts it. Paul is seriously considering a career as a teacher but we still have hopes of dissuading him. Paul is too funny for the pedagogic art. His vocation is to be found no where else save on the stage. George M. Cohan is looking for men such as he. With his dry wit, his droll manner, and his Maine drawl, Paul could knock ' em off their seats. Paul justly deserves to be immortalized along side of such artists as Ed Winn I , and Frank Tinney. His big act in class is answering for Mr. Fahey. Yes, Paul is a fellow well worth knowing. With a time and place for everything, he can be both jolly and serious — in fact, as men go, Paul is 100 per cent.

Club of Charlestown 1, 2, 3, 4; Sodal- ity 1, 2, 3, 4; Basketball 4; K. C— B. C. Club 4: Glee Club 2, 3; Sub TuREi Staff 4. Art made quite a reputation in basket- ball this year. He was the mainstay of the college team and his dashing play featured every game. He made so many baskets that now he is called Baskets Tierney. Art himself blushingly admitted that without his assistance the season would never have been the social success that it was. Art also played his usual position with the great Cotter-Noonan- Duffy-Naughton aggregation from Bunker Hill. However, Art has much more than mere basketball ability. He has the most wonderful curly hair and is considered one of Charlestown ' s best steppers — and in Charlestown everybody steps. Art also has a girl. I mean two girls; in fact, they are Siamese twins. Art thought he liked one of the twins, but since they are inseparable he has to go with both of them. Perhaps you have witnessed Art after a basketball game taking the twins to their respective homes. After performing this duty Art usually engages in a warm discussion of the next day ' s Ethics in the Waldorf lunch room and then crawls past his father ' s room to his own study room — which is also his bedroom, but in which he does little of his studying and even less of his sleeping. Arthur, in spite of all this, is a serious student and one of Father Corrigan ' s most promising understudies. Art, however, wishes that the Ethics professor would not embarrass him with his effusive congratulations the morning after every game. Art says he never thought that the Jesuits read the sporting page anyway. We are unable to tell just what Art intends to do when he leaves B. C. but there have been mysterious rumors about studying medicine in some western college, and then again there has been talk about an uncle ' s gold mine out west. But whether it be miner or doctor. Art, you ' re a great kid. Page one hundred fifty-six JOHN FRANCIS TOOMEY 32 Park St., ( ambridge, Mass. Born June H. 1901 B. r. High; Srii Tirri Staff 4; Stu- dent A. A. 4; Asst.

You know Jack was born in ladrid. Spain. Viva la Hispasnola. . ' fter liis infantile procedure through Sjiain his lot was cast in Cambridge, the home of Har- vard and Mayor Quinn. As a youth Jack featured in all those lovely school aflairs like The Village Blacksmith etc. In 1918 little Johnny passed the immigration officers at University Heights and had his passports okayed. From then on he was a B. C. man from his naughty Spanish (black I hair to his snappy brogues. Whenever the football team made any trips Jack was always there as a royal rooter and he made many such trips. Jack is a very popular man at school and his pleasing personality has won a legion of friends for him not only among the students but also among the professors. He is always smiling and when things looked blackest for little Jack his grin was all the wider and his attack all the more vigorous. Jack had a very strenuous season with the basketball team and when things looked blackest for little Jack his grin was all the wider and his attack all the more vigorous. Jack had a very strenuous season with the basketball team and many a day was heard to mutter, To be or not to be? That is the question. But apropos of the basketball team. Did you notice there were several games in Maine? As William Shakespeare would say, There ' s the rub. Maine is Broncho Jack ' s stamping ground and many are the ranges he has ridden there. But as of Postum, so of Jack, There ' s a reason. In his youthful days Jack was president of the Greek Research Club, an exclusive societv of jockeys and knights of the turf. If any horse stum- bled, his jockey ipso facto became a member of this club, so you can see Jack was quite a jockey. As I gaze on his Reidesque face I recall these lines and also many scenes: To whose bright image nightly in the moon Sidonian virgins paid their vows and songs.

The black, lu.strous eyes that stare at Fr. Beglan during lec- tures denote this inward searching, and therefore we have with us big minded men. But hard by the window which depicts St. Patrick, Ireland ' s puissant snake-charmer, sits a wee bit of a man whose eyes sparkle and abound in lustre. How now? A B. C. man not introspective? I answered merely, ' Tis little Willie Torphy with the magazine aliases, Trotsky, Torrid and Turpid. Will shows no painful signs of introspection because he restricts his doses to fifteen minutes a day. This because his teleological bump is well developed. He knows that too much sui-thought begets suicide. When a freshman he set before his mind among others, the following ideal : a B. C. degree with books as tools, not masters. As means to this end he chose everything from solid moderate study to membership in the Elks. That is why his Seniority finds him alive in body and mind, parting his hair wick- edly in the middle, and spectacles to convince even a casual observer. The same senior statistics that backfired jokingly on George Kelly as the most ladylike shot straight to the target in hailing Bill Anthony as the most useful. Useful to his class, to his friends, and equally useful to himself. His work as the assistant editor of this book speaks for itself, and without him it would not be the success it is. Like a master workman over his loom, he has woven into the warp and woof of his character, here a stout practical thread, there a golden ideal thread, here a crimson humor thread, to tickle Frank Flynn with, and prominent in the whole tapestry is the blue thread of faithful friendship. B. C. gives him to Harvard Law School and the world with pride.

Club 3, 4; Intercollegiate Debater 4; Ful- ton and Marquette Prize Debater 2, 3, 4 ' A Knight of Columbus, anil a Catholic gentleman. ... If the page upon which we write were as long as the Lincoln Hieth- way, we could fill it with no more praise than is contained in this line. For in the Order which takes its name and example from that intrepid mariner of the un- charted seas of the fifteenth century, we know that no truer Knight can be found. And testimony to the second fact has been found in his every act. He was one of those clear-headed, practical, individuals that finds an outlet for their energies in every line. He was a debater and orator of repute, and every prize contest finds his name up among the leaders. He also wrote the famous letter each month in the Stylus which constituted the new Domi department. And this is not all; he was a charter member of the K. of C. Club at Boston College and its second president. Under his regime the insti- tution of the exemplification of degrees upon classes of Boston College men was effected, and every degree was crowned with great success. He was the worker who, we firmly believe, set a record for the number of new members induced to join the great order. In short, Charlie was so successful in so many activities that we are at a loss to discover the one that was his favorite. Socially, he was related to the beast that roars. Perhaps his catering experience at the functions of the 100 wised him up to many of the tricks and subtleties of the game. But whatever it was, his experience was singularly complete, and we reaped the benefit when he headed j - npl 7Bi ' various Stylus social committees. Contrary to the r - kJSJL ' ' ' • ' hat we invariably expect, for all this, he was a |BC. ' ' ° j§ hill! fellow well met on every meeting. Good humored and affable he was on every occasion. We are worry- ' ' G(fS 2 in? ' p ' S about the success of his future than he is. Need we say more? Page one hundred fifty nine FRANCIS JOHN TURNBULL 354 Seaver St., Dorchester, Mass. Born February 21, 1901 B, C. High; Contributing Editor Sty- lus 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2: Sergt.-at-Arms Marquette 2; Secretary Marquette 2; Radio Club 2; Fulton 3, 4: Prize Debate Com- mittee 3; Vice-President Fulton 4; Manager Intercollegiate Debates 4; President Science Club 4; Dorchester B. C. Club 2, 3, 4; Fulton Lecture Team 4: K. of C. Club 3, 4; Asst. Business Manager Sub Turei 4. Every morning this blond youth wended his way from Dorchester. Every morning he was as regular as the w. k. clock. In spite of his punctuality and inveterate ac- cessibility he was a man of mystery. We say this because his bosom pals and asso- ciates were H. Foley and A. Cusick. And also let us remark right here that Jack made the Triumvirate bearable for finite minds. Thus always are the ways of the great. In the inspection of his list of activities we find that he has been mixed up in about ever ' thing, and his scholastic record shows him to be a scholar and a scientist. He knows Chemistry like his prayers, has knocked Philosophy for a row of red shanties on many and numerous occasions, and is a debater of no mean ability. On top of this he wrote for the Stylus, and his essays — whimsical and clever, were among the best that we have seen in the college magazine. Jack is of that true type of character which appeals to him who needs a true friend. . -tf sK There is no flaw of guile or selfishness in his make-up fejS — his way is, to know the right and speak it. ' ' _ ' If his future could be as bright as he could wish it in his fondest dreams, it could bear no more lustre than we wish for him. Our last words to him as he goes over the river to M. I. T. are: Good Luck, old Pal; don ' t forget us. Page one hundred sixty STEPHEN VELARDO 46 Adams St., Roxbury, Mass. Born December IS, 1S99. English High School; Heights Staff 4; K. of C. Club 3, 4; Associate Edi- tor SiB TuKRi 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Roxbury B. C. Club 3, 4; Presi- dent 4; Vice-President 3, In more senses than one, Sieve Velarde is an historic figure. He made history at B. C. inasmuch as he was always ready with a calm, sensible proposal. A leader in calibre, he always lent his energetic as- sistance to his class officers, and thus plaved no small part in making this the class of big things. Then again, he is historic inasmuch as, in his American veins, courses the blood of the Romans who taught us our A B C ' s of culture. The eloquence of Cicero and the elegance of Horace — lessons to us — were his birth- right — yet he has not lost the common touch. That is why we loved to lit- with him — to vision again a chariot race or sip with him the sparkling Falernian; yea, it were most pleasant to fancy ourselves in Steve ' s villa gazing raptly at the bubbles winking at the brim with the soft strains of nunc est bibendum pouring from the Roman victrolas. Alas — but even in this arid year, .Steve ' s hospitality was perfect. Shall we ever forget the noodles wherewith Tenney sought to read the future or the spaghetti wherewith Prior almost broke his neck? We wonder what the future holds in store for Steve besides the Supreme Blessedness of Matrimony. Social work may claim him; so may the professions of law, teaching, or politics. We shall all look on with interest. His friends know that Velardo spells success. Page one hundred sixty-one THOMAS EDWARD WARD 33 Neponset St., Canton, Mass. Born November 2, 1900 President Canton B. C. Club; Mor- quette Debating Society 2 ; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; So- dality 1, 2, 3, 4. Whenever a stately Senior appears on the Heights at an early hour of the morn- ing, and that is seldom, he can never fail to see there ahead of him the major por- tion of the population of Canton in the person of Thomas Edward Ward. And if Wardy is not seen he can always be recognized on entrance into the class room by the series of low rumbling tremors brought about by the gentle patter of his gunboats storming the Senior stronghold. For be it known Wardy is one of our class babies, in a large sense. Together with Fat McDermott he is having a merry battle to determine who ' s who in the heavyweight division, and so far Tom seems to have the edge. Be that as it may, he makes his presence felt in ways other than by stepping on one ' s toes, for as an officer of the B. C. Club of Canton he has seen to it that his Alma Mater is known to all other Cantonites. His semi-annual dancing party serves as a grand occasion for his town folk to know that B. C. still exists. By nature Tommy is quiet — at times, but just start a melee in his vicinity and he is ready to show just what pushing a plow will do to develop the famous Ward punch. But this does not stop his classmates from seeking his companionship, for Tom has been known to trounce several bullies down hum, and one must have protection if he is accus- tomed to winning his battles by oratory. What Tom will do in the future is known only to T. E. Perhaps he will be a selectman on the town board and perhaps — well, he ' ll make good. We are sure of that. Page one hundred sixty-two WILLIAM A. WHALL 107 Kossiter St., Dorchester, Mass. Hcim Deccmher 30, 1897 Winthrop High: B. C. High; Sudal- ity : League of Sacred Heart. The calm-eyed youth who regards you from the picture on this page is Bill Whall. Although this dignified member of the class never allows himself to be- come flurried, let this not deceive you into thinking that his mind is likewise qui- escent, for just the opposite is true. Bill, as a true philosopher, is always seeking the ultimate causes of things, and if the truth be told, usually succeeds in find- ing them. Yet we have the well known exception here, for the ultimate cause of waxing the floor in a dance hall is the one thing which baffles Bill, both as a dancer and a philosopher. Upon first glance at the above picture we notice there is something missing. Oh, yes — it is the pipe — the old, familiar pipe without which he is never seen outside the class room. And the look of supreme satisfaction once he begins puffing on it might almost be termed beatific. But on the tennis court Bill is a changed man. Here agility replaces dignity, and, the fragrant pipe laid aside, his tall form seems omnipresent to those try- ing to place the ball where he shouldn ' t be but is. He gave the leaders a hard battle in the Fall Tournament and was among the best at the finish. Bill is not a charter member of the Class of ' 22, but is none the less a member in good standing, for, coming into the class in the beginning of Senior year, his genial yet quiet personality soon made him the friend of all. During his summer vacations. Bill was a conductor on the Narrow Gauge Railroad, and, although we do not predict that this will be his life work, we do say that if it were, the ultimate cause of his seeking that position would be the attainment of the office of presi- dent of that railway. But, whether he succeeded or not, his calm demeanor would lie unruffipd. Page one hundred si.xty-three FRANCIS PHILIP WHITE 273 Reed St., Rockland, Mass. Born February 28, 1901 Rockland High School; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Leagvie of Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; Rockland-Abington B. C. Club ; Treasurer 3 ; Cap and Gown Committee; Class Insignia Commit- tee. Frank is a man of men, a friend of friends, a pal of pals. His heart is as big as the universe, his mind as keen as the winter wind, his smile as frequent as the moments of time. All his classmates can find in Frank some good quality to imitate. He comes from that distant town of Rockland, where he shone in all scholastic activities. Besides being one of the best athletes of the town he was the honor man of the class. His success at the College shows the unusual ability that Frank possesses. Always looking for something unusual to brighten the weary moments, Frank, with his pal Henry Smith, per- formed some unusual feats every Friday in his Sophomore year. He played class baseball during his years at the College, giving us a sample of his stellar fielding. St. Patrick ' s Day in Rockland is given over to fun or fight. During the last few years Frank has been in charge of the celebration, so that the townsmen have seen more fun and fight than they thought ever existed. As a student he has few equals. His scholastic stand- ing has always been of the highest class. When Frank leaves us on Commencement day his classmates will y ?! lose a companion whose noble character will insure him success in the battle of life. srL Page one hundred sixty-four ' : -; JOHN JOSEPH WHITE 91 Wachusett St., Forest Hills, Mass.

Jack may never have disting- uished himself in the intellectual lime- light in any remarkable manner, but none the less, he never had cause to worry concerning any impending exam or army quizz. Whether it be a football game, hockey contest. College concert or intercollegiate debate, John was always on hand to aid in cheering his Alma Mater ' s repre- sentatives on to victory. No one could vaunt of more college spirit and enthusiasm than Jack. At home, work, dance or party, Boston College was Jack ' s only topic, and how he did propound the mental reservations in up- holding and expanding the merits and ideals of the old Maroon and Gold. He was the object of much admiration on the part of the fair sex, and of much envy on our part whenever Jack was witnessed cavorting around on the ball- room floor. During his Senior year Jack, as manager of our varsity baseball team, labored earnestly and incessantly to arrange games, outfit players, hunt up train schedules and sell tickets, and to say the least, he more than ac- complished his end. We had a very successful season on the diamond, and too much praise cannot be attrib- uted Manager White for his faithful efforts. We do not know what he intends to do when he leaves old B. C, but whatever it is, his determinable will and jovial disposition is certain to assist him in overcoming and surpassing all obstacles. He is certain to succeed. Farewell Jack, and may your irresistible personality and ready wit continue making friends for you through the school of life in the future as it has in the past at old B. C. Page one hundred sixty-five GEORGE DAVENPORT YANTIS 97 Hawthorne St., Maiden, Mass. Born January 18, 1901 B. C. High School; Marquette 1; Fulton 3, 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Presi- dent Maiden B. C. Club 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; Pro- moter 3. When our eyes rested on the lithesome form of George Yantis for the first time, we asked ourselves What Fairy God- mother has sent us this graceful model? — for to be sure, we could only conceive of such a neat personage as having been sent from the ethereal regions by parcel post, carefully packed in a box of excel- sior. We soon found out, however, who this individual was, and there wasn ' t a man in the class who didn ' t know and like George Yantis. George is neat and dapper like a suit salesman, and graceful like Paul Swan or Vernon Castle, nor was his light- footedness wasted for he put it to good advantage on the track team. George developed into one of the best sprinters of the college, and became so fast that he was chosen Beadle of Senior, which means that he above all others, was sure of being on time for class in the morning. Beadle of Senior is no vain title, and much honor accrues to him who fills this position. The Beadle must note well with vigilant eye the absentees, and then said Beadle must conduct his office without incurring the enmity of any of hi s classmates. George performed his duty well, for he used much diplomacy, and played chess consistently with Connie Sherlock, so that the absentees might escape his glance. We will now hang up the mallet and be more serious. George is one of our best students, excelling in religion and ethics. In Sophomore he received the highest mark in religion ever awarded by Father McGarvey. He is one of the most popular men in the class, because of his altruistic nature — George will give you anything but his girl. He is a good athlete, energetic, courageous and progressive. In fact, George is the perfect person ification of good-fellowship, manliness and Christianity. We like George immensely — he ' s one of the best.

Page one hundred sixtv-nine Class of 1923 With the knowledge that logic and rhetoric make men able to contend, the members of the Class of 1923 attained last September to that period in the life of every Boston Collegian at which he is conscious of having set sail on the boundless seas of wisdom. Great indeed was their regret at having to bid farewell to the classic authors of antiquity, but greater still was the sat- isfaction of every Junior at his accept- ance into the army of the true philos- ophers. No sooner had the new upperclass- men learned to treat subjects philosoph- ically than they beheld the outstanding causes for the remarkable achievements of their Class during the preceding year. Accordingly, Owen Gallagher, their energetic self-sacrificing pilot of Sophomore days, was chosen to guide their course once more. Joseph Comber served as Vice-President, and the offices of Secretary, Treasurer and Representa- tive to the Athletic Council were filled by Myles McSweeney, Walter Dimmock and John Heaphy, respectively. Under this administration, the Class conducted a successful springtime smoker, while on February tenth the Vendome was the scene of one of the most enjoyable Proms ever given. This triumph was a direct result of the zeal of the College Club of 1923. From the inspiring weekly discourses of Rev. Father Donnelly, S. J., the Junior Sodalists learned many spiritual lessons of inestimable value. The other officers of the Sodality were: Prefect, Joseph Comber; Assistant Prefect, Fran- cis Ford; Organist, Louis Tracy; Sacristan, Harold McDermott. To ' 23 fell the distinction of furnishing not only many athletes extraordinary, but even the captains of football and hockey, Walter A. Comerford and Leo Hughes. To all who really know the men of Junior and their capable, untiring officers, it is a foregone conclusion that regardless of whether sunny skies will render our towers resplendent in their heavenly glory, or whether storm clouds swooping down from on high will enshroud these noble pinnacles, yet quand meme the Class of 1923 will always endeavor to remain true to the hallowed traditions which the Classes of years gone by have left to all that are to come.

On the gridiron and the cinders, on diamond and rink, the doughty vanguard of ' 24 works havoc in the ranks of rival aggregations. In the halls of Marquette it is the voice of a Soph, stentorian, compelling, that rises above the din and prattle of puny Freshman effort. Step down stairs a moment for a peep into the Stylus office.

Both noble Sophomores — both in part controlling two vital departments of the best col- legiate publication in the country. The best — yes, the best monthly; the best weekly is three or four doors up, where the Heights sanctum abides. Upon its staff is the Sophomore combine of Keo- hane and Sullivan — both scribblers of note, gluttons for news and an ornamen- tation to anv reportorial bodv. Ramble down to the Campus some afternoon and spend a pleasant hour or two estimating the number of star athletes who wear the ' 24. A dazzling array you ' ll find, and don ' t forget your smoked spectacles. Merrick is there, no doubt, keeping the dust from settling too thickly on the hurdles, clearing the sticks with true Ryderesque technique. Ed Murphy, chief of the Harrier host, that ' s he coming over the brow of the hill finishing a short work-out of five miles or so, and a mile in front of the nearest man. This last achievement has become a habit of Ed ' s so they elected him captain of the cross-country team, making two Murphys, likewise two Sophomores, that captain a Varsity sport. Tommy Murphy leads the basketball quintet and also minds the cash in the Sophomore treasury. Oh, those are but a few of the luminaries that comprise the firmament of ' 24; but our space is limited and one cannot depict in miniature what requires a broad canvas. Rut the term will soon pass and with it a great class — that of 1924 as Sophomores. Our officers: J. F. Monahan, President: G. F. Dowd, Vice-Presi- dent: T. J. Murphy. Secretary-Treasurer; P. H. Cleary. S. A. A. J. F. MONAHAN Page one hundred seventy-one Class of 1925 The Class of 1925 — the largest in the history of Boston College — has been pre-eminent in every phase of college life. Early in our career we chose William Diker Doyle as our leader. Jack Keahane was elected Vice-Pres- ident. John Howard was made Secre- tary and Arthur Duffly, Treasurer. As for scholarship, suffice it to say that this Class stands unparalleled. Re- viewing the dramatic and literary ac- tivities, who can forget Jerry Slat- tery ' s excellent characterization of Captain Barker and William Goose Reilly ' s fancy steps to Dapper Dan? John Ewing, Victor Carr and Neal O ' Callahan were also in the College play. The Brosnahan Debating Soci- ety stops, looks and listens when Wood- ley, Hickey, Rock or other spell-binders powerfully argue their points. For the debate with Holy Cross, the Marquette secured Joe Gavan, while Victor Carr and Bernard Hawley are counted with many other Freshmen as their best men. The Stylus is fortunate in having Victor Carr, our own E. Phillips Oppenheim, on its editorial staff. Bill O ' Brien is the Freshman reporter for the Heights. In the Radio Club, Martin Griffin represents us. At any of the Glee Club concerts a score or more of the Twenty-fivers could be seen and heard. The orchestra and band depended upon Freshmen for their leading musicians. What would the football team have been without President Bill Doyle? Chuck Darling, Kewpie Elbery, Corcoran, Phillips, Patten, L vons, Comolli, Kozlowsky and Culhane are all members of the Class of 192.5. A ' 25 may be written after the names of ' Bill Sheehy, Huck Finnegan, Kirley, Dillon, Moynahan, Healy, Nolan, Flahive, Fleming, Morrissey, Foley, Hickey, Ansaldo, Killilea and many other Freshmen who have brought laurels to Boston College by their athletic ability. That our whole-hearted College spirit is worthy of B. C. men the All-Freshmen Home Night clearly showed. The Class of 1922 is now departing but they leave a heritage of ideals which shall ever be our inspiration. Surely they were a Class that led. We, following them and knowing that achievement is command, have attained to a high standard which is well worthy of the aspirations of those who shall follow us. BILL DOYLE Page one hundred seventy-two Page one hundred seventy-threp Alumni William D. Nugent In September, 1864, Boston College began its existence with twenty students. Through the three score years that followed it has risen steadily in power and purpose until today it is recognized as one of the leading educational institutions in America. The contributions to science and the busi- ness world made by the graduates of Boston College during the past sixty years cannot be estimated by mere names and facts, for personal influence counts for as much as mere concrete results. In business, in law and in guiding the footsteps and training the minds of future citizens Alma Mater ' s true sons will ever be found in the van, demonstrating and impart- ing the sound principles and lofty ideals on which they were nourished at the Heights. Again there are those who, in the service of humanity, have embraced the medical pro- fession and are casting aside all the thoughts of personal comfort and ease that they might alleviate the bodily ills of suffer- ing mankind. In the recent hours of trial, when Alma Mater appealed to her sons to Go over the top in her two million dollar extension campaign, that she might con- tinue in her noble work of educating the young, how great must have been her joy at the ready response and self-sacrifice of her loyal sons. Each year at commencement the Mother ' s face is tear-stained and her heart aches with the wrenching of separation, but in that same sorrowing heart there is a pride in those sons who are going forth to swell the ranks of her loyal Alumni, and to show to the world the noble principles and sound reasoning she has imparted to them. Proud, too, of her sons who have returned once again to the hallowed halls wherein were spent the choicest, happiest years of their lives; wherein were formed those friendships which have lasted on through the years; wherein were first learned those important lessons which have served them in good stead in life ' s battles. Well, indeed, may Alma Mater be proud of her sons ever loyal to her golden rule. Aien aristuein. Page one hundred seventy-four Page one hundred seventy-five On the night of November 25, the eve of the H. C.-B. C. football game, the Senior Class held its annual big smok- er in the Auditorium of the City Club. Over 2500 undergraduates, alumni and friends were present to hear the many prominent speakers of the evening and the various entertainers. President Jim Doyle welcomed the gathering, and after introducing the chairman, Mr. Henry Smith, turned the meeting over to him. As the first speaker of the evening. Rev. Richard O ' Brien, S. J., Faculty Director of Athletics, recalled to mind the various difficulties and troubles which faced Major Cavanaugh at the outset of the sea- son; the numerous injuries which had kept some of the best men out of the game for practically the entire season; and last, but not least, he told of those men who, by transferring their affections to other colleges showed the lack of appreciation for what B. C. had done for them. Sandy Chapman, K. of C. overseas secretary, brought forth rounds of ap- plause in his rendition of The Knights of Columbus Were There. As he fin- ished Coach Cavanaugh and Assistant Coach Hiker Joy appeared in the hall and 2000 pairs of lungs gave them a Regular Boston. As Major Cavanaugh arose to speak a silent tenseness gripped the audience. In a forceful manner he decried the ever increasing professional spirit rampant in American schools and colleges today. He told how college men were losing sight of the essential note of love and sacrifice for their Alma Mater and selling themselves to the highest bidder. Concerning the game on the following day he would not prognosticate but assured all that the team would give its best. Mayor Peters, the next speaker, paid high tribute to the scholastic and athletic prowess of B. C. Reverend Father Rector expressed his love and affection for the Class of 1922 and congratulated them on the success of the Smoker. Mayor Quinn, of Cambridge, brought with him the best wishes of 99 per cent of Cam- bridge for a B. C. victory. The final speaker of the evening was the President of the Alumni, William Nugent, a staunch friend of the Class of 1922. He con- gratulated the Class on its fine spirit at Boston College. Chairman Smith and his committee provided a fine list of speakers mixed vnth a pleasant program of entertainers and were heartily congratulated for the evening ' s success. Those assisting Mr. Smith were Jack Kelly, Art MuUin, Ralph Shea, Charlie McMorrow, Dan McSweeney, Tom Foley, Len Healy, Bill Bigley, Art Cusick and President Jim Doyle. Page one hundred seventy-six ■ The Senior Class staged the initial social event of the year on October 26, 1921. Football and tennis were the afternoon attractions while music, speeches and movies provided the entertainment for the evening. Supper was served in the lunchroom. All the undergraduates and the Faculty were invited and many attended. The football game, staged by two Senior teams led by Bunny Far- rell and Gerry Deeley respectively, proved to be a very interesting as well as intenselv exciting game. Some of the boys discovered here how to use their Ethics and Psychology to practical advantage. After this encounter Tony McMorrow and Walter Graham entertained the boys with a classy exhibition on the tennis court. Both boys showed themselves very proficient in this line of athletics and the match was greatly enjoyed by the rest of the class. At six o ' clock Steve Velardo played mess call on one of the Heights typewriters and all adjourned to the lunchroom where Jimmy Doyle had everything in readiness to satisfy the capacious appetites developed by the healthy exercise of the afternoon. In the evening the Assemljly Hall was crowded with undergraduates and mem- bers of the Faculty, all anxious to be present at anything conducted by the Class of 1922. The program was opened by a selection by the College Orchestra after which Jimmy Doyle welcomed all as guests of the Senior Class and briefly outlined the plans for the year. This was followed by some well-rendered selections from Duffly ' s Orchestra, conducted by Paul ' s brother. Our own inim- itable Dan McSweeney then amused the audience with a speech which touched on ever ' thing from the davs of Diogenes and his barrel up to the football game with Detroit I niversitv. The evening ' s program was voted a huge success by all present and fully u ) to the standard of 1922. Page one hundred seventy-seven 12 Page one hundred seventy-eight Philomatheia Winter Carnival One of the events the Class of 1922 was fortunate enough to include in its final year on the Heights was the winter carnival of the Philomatheia Club. This annual event originated a few years ago, and has now become a fete greatly to be anticipated each year. The day chosen was perfectly suited to the occasion and a large gathering was present to enjoy the festivities. In the afternoon the members of the Philomatheia Club and their friends sat down to whist which was held in the Assembly Hall. On Alumni Field a skating rink had been erected for the enjoyment of the younger element. In view of the fact that the toboggan chutes were not completed the toboggans were dragged along behind automobiles. Much has been said about the beauty of Boston College but the college was seen in all its splendor on that night. The facade of the recitation building was artistically decorated with colored lights. The effect was truly brilliant and in harnionv with the surrounding night. High powered searchlights played upon the rink and the Twin Lakes below, causing them to sparkle with the brilliancy of diamonds. ithin the Recitation Building an oyster supper was served and in the evening dancing was enjoyed. Many thanks are due Mrs. Roberts, Mrs. J. P. Feeney and the members of the committee for one of the most enjoyable affairs ever con- ducted at the Heights. Page one hundred seventy-nine Page one hundred eighty Philomatheia Reception At the Copley Plaza Hotel, January 18, the annual Philomatheia Club Ball was held. Due to the increased popularity of this event both the large ballroom and the foyer were filled to their utmost capacity. The ballroom was artistically decorated with the College colors and pennants draping the boxes. Many of the dignitaries of the city and state were present. The grand march was led by Mayor Curley and Mrs. V. P. Roberts, the President of the Philo- matheia Club, followed by President Doyle and the rest of the Class of 1922 wearing maroon and gold bands. At intermission favors bearing the B. C. seal were distributed to the members of the committee. An innovation at the ball this year was the Paul Jones dance, quite aptly named, held exclusively for the Seniors. The party was a huge success and the thanks of the class are due to the Philomatheia Club. The Committee comprised Mrs. V. P. Roberts, Mrs. D. J. McCarthy, Mrs. David E. Hanlon, Mrs. James H. Furfey, Mrs. Joseph V. Riley, Mrs. Michael J. McCarthy, Mrs. James H. Doyle, Mrs. Charles J. O ' Malley, Mrs. Thomas F. Troy and Mrs. G. Cleary. The Class Committee consisted of William Kelleher, Chair- man; Charles A. McMorrow, William Elberry, George Kelley, Charles Gal- lagher, Henry E. Foley, John White, William Bigley, Daniel J. McSweeney, Leonard Dolan, James Reynolds and Walter Graham. Page one hundred eighty-one -rwrm: THI-: FOCH CELEBRATION- C. GREETS MARSHAL FOCH November 14, 1921 is a date that will never be forgotten in the history of Boston College, for on that morning Marshal Ferdinand Foch, hero of France and Commander-in-Chief of the Allied armies during the recent World War, was tendered an enthusiastic reception at University Heights by the student body. Boston College tendered the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws to the Marshal at this celebration. The Marshal was met at the driveway by the College band and ' mid the cheers of the student body and the assembled throng was escorted to the Assembly Hall where, due to the inclemency of the weather, the exercises were held. The student body sang La Marsellaise as the entire assemblage stood at attention. Then followed an address, Marshal Foch, Catholic Soldier, by Rene Gingras of Junior, which greatly impressed the Marshal. President Father Devlin then delivered a short address in French, prior to the conferring of the degree, stating that B. C. felt doubly honored in being able to present its most precious gift to one who was not only a scholar, but also a Jesuit student. Marshal Foch then spoke in French, his speech being conununicated to the audience by an interpreter. His words were forceful and greatly stressed the necessity of a world peace with God as the foundation. His great desire was to see America and France take up this work together. The student body then gave a Regular Boston, led by President Jim Doyle of Senior, for the greatest general in the world, and the celebration terminated with the singing of the Star Spangled Banner. Page one hundred eighty-two B. C. Clubs f Tlie cause of the growlh dI Boston College and lier increase in tame is due in no small measure to the teachers of the College, the Jesuit Fathers, who are lield bv everyone to be noble examples of wonderful scholarly ability. Yet some credit must be given to the students and alumni who have carried on the work of Boston College in their towns. This work was done by means of organizing B. C. Clubs, composed of alumni and students, formed for the purpose of bettering Boston College and also bringing to light the work that the College is constantly doing. The work of organizing B. C. Clubs started a few years ago and has increased rapidly until now it has reached a remarkable standard. Practically every sub- urb of Boston is represented by a B. C. Club. In 1918 a Boston College Club was established in far-off Cuba, and although the activities of the club were few it served its purpose, which was to spread the name of Boston College. The first B. C. Club to be organized was the Cambridge Boston College Club and it has been a real asset to the College in its many years of existence under the leadership of such men as Rev. Michael Doody, the late lamented Edmund J. Brandon, Sr., and Doctor Eugene McCarthy. The club at present is headed by John B. Atkinson, ' 16, with W. J. O ' SuUivan, ' 14, as Secretary and E. J. Brandon as Treasurer. The Boston College men of Somerville soon followed the example of those from Cambridge and in the fall of 1916 the B. C. Club of Somei-ville was formed. The present officers in this busy organization are: Pres. John D. Kelley ' 22; Vice- Pres. Arthur Morrisey ' 22; Sec. George Dowd, ' 22; Treas. John Riordan, ' 24. The Roxbury Boston College Club, under the leadership of Steve Velardo, started the college social season early in November with a grand ball which was a brilliant success. Although young, this is one of the largest Boston College Clubs. The officers are Pres. Stephen Velardo, ' 22; Vice-Pres. Walter Dimmock, ' 23; Sec. Leo Motley, ' 22; Treas. Benedict Daly, ' 23. At the beginning of the year the South Boston Boston College Club elected Edward Madden, ' 22, Pres.; John Carr, ' 23, Vice-Pres.: Eugene J. Sullivan, ' 22, Sec; John P. Hogan, ' 22, Treas. This club, although organized but a few years ago, has gained recognition as being one of the best clubs connected with the College. Many social events have been conducted and many works of charity are done by this organization. Page one hundred eighty-three B. C. Clubs [Continued) The Lowell Boston College Club, composed of some fifty or sixty students and alumni, has the record of having raised more money for the drive of last year than any other B. C. Club. The officers are: Pres. Paul R. Foisy, ' 22; Vice-Pres. George H. Keefe, ' 22; Sec. James P. Liston, ' 23; Treas. John P. McSorley, ' 25. Dorchester is very well represented at the college and so it is quite natural that there should be a large and powerful Dorchester Club. Under the able direction of Pres. Thomas M. Foley, ' 22; Vice-Pres. Charles Tucker, ' 22; Sec. Dennis N. O ' Leary, ' 22; and Treas. Jeremiah Coughlin, ' 23, this club has had a very suc- cessful year. The Charlestown Club, formed around the same time as the Cambridge Club, has also been very active in Boston College affairs and has been well assisted by the organizer of the club, Hon. Richard S. Teeling. The officers are: Pres. Martin Higgins, Jr., ' 15; Vice-Pres. John J. McCarthy, ' 19; Sec. James A. Delay, ' 22; Treas. William F. Cummings. There are many other Boston College Clubs, too numerous to mention at length, chief among which are the Boston College Clubs of Newton, Maiden, Worcester, Medford, Quincy, Lawrence, West Roxbury, Chelsea, Waltham, Natick, Everett and Hyde Park. The main purpose of these clubs is to place before the eyes of the people of the various towns the wonderful work that Boston College is doing. They stand before their districts as an example of the type of men old B. C. sends forth. Our words of appreciation are limited by the space assigned to us, consequently we will attempt no more laudation. Boston College appre- ciated the work of her sons in their various clubs, and we are honored to transmit her words of praise. Early in our Junior year the K. of C. Club was started at B. C. and in our Senior year it was a well founded organization. The Knights broke into the social whirl at the College on the night of the Holy Cross game when they staged a reception to the two football teams at Horticultural Hall. However, their really big undertaking was the initiation of forty students into the mysteries of the order in the assembly hall at the College. Many of our football stars wandered down the mystic pathway to knighthood on this occasion. The officers responsible for this advance of Columbianism at the College are: Pres. Charles A. Tucker; Vice-Pres. Leo Hughes, ' 23; Sec. Thomas M. Foley, ' 22; Treas. Daniel J. McSweeney, ' 22; and Lecturer Henry F. McDermott, ' 22. The slogan, proposed by President Tucker at the inception of the club two years ago, is K. C. for B. C. and B. C. for K. C. Page one hundred eighty-four Philomatheia Club ± A group ol Miiiu ' n. at the invitation ot (he (ii ' a kialL ' Athletic Board, met at Riverbank (iourt on October 26, 1915, and heard tlie members of the Board appeal for the co-operation of Catholic women. They pointed out that the strictly moral and intellectual demands of the student body were being mag- nificently met by a distinguished Jesuit faculty, but that the social and athletic phases of the College needed some other assistance. Realizing that no college could hope to hold an equal place with similar institutions unless all sides of its existence were properly developed the assembled women formed themselves into an organization called the Philomatheia Club to foster and aid the athletic and social advancement of the student body of the College. Its very name denotes what its members wished it to be — Friends and lovers of learning. How well they succeeded is known to all. To attempt herein to recount even a great part of their accomplishments for Boston College and the Class of Twenty- two is indeed futile. We can only record those incidents most generally remem- bered by us and most suggestive of other equally happy moments. We achieved our greatest social success at the annual Philomatheia Ball held in the Copley Plaza Hotel. This success was due in a great part to one of the best friends Boston College has, our smiling, genial, social mother, Mrs. V. P. Roberts. The annual Winter Carnival of the Club was filled with merriment and pleasure for the many guests and for the collegiate body. Such social affairs without the Philomatheia Club would never be realized on the Heights. How well they have succeeded in all their tioble and lofty aims is hardly recorded in these few lines yet all their accomplishments are matters of open history to all. Now to the Philomatheia Club under the guiding hands of that amiable, tireless worker. Mrs. Roberts, and that zealous, kindly spiritual director. Father Lynch, and to the following officers: Page one hundred eighty-five Philomatheia Club {Continued) Honorary President, William Cardinal O ' Connell Honorary Vice President, Mrs. Martha Moore Avery President, Mrs. Vincent P. Roberts Vice President, Mrs. Michael J. McCarthy Vice President, Mrs. Thomas F. Troy Recording Secretary, Mrs. Peter W. Collins Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. John P. Feeney Board of Directors Mrs. William J. Bigley Mrs. David E. Hanlon Miss Marie G. Cleary Mrs. Joseph V. Kiley Mrs. P. Joseph Collins Mrs. Daniel J. McCarthy Mrs. James H. Doyle Mrs. Charles J. O ' Malley Mrs. James A. Furfey Mrs. Thomas F. Reynolds Spiritual Director, Rev. Daniel J. Lynch, S. J. and to the thousand members we say : That your pleasant words, your thoughtful and unselfish deeds have sprinkled sunshine in spite of many a darkened cloud and your works will live forever in the hearts of Twenty-two.

B4i HBJT ' ' 1 ti= - 11 Page one hundred eighty-seven Page one hundred eighty-eight Page one hundred eighty-nine The Senior Retreat t During the week of October 18, 1921 the Seniors made the last annual retreat of their collegiate career. Generally this retreat is held during Passion Week, but this year the order was changed in order that we might have the full benefit of such a religous exercise immediately after we had started on our school year. We Seniors had our retreat in the College Chapel in St. Mary ' s Hall which is just large enough to accommodate the one hundred and thirty-five young men who faithfully and devoutly attended the service s. This year ' s retreat was conducted by Father Gasson, S. J., former Rector of Boston College and the man who made possible this wonderful educational institution at University Heights. If it were not for Father Gasson ' s dreams of a greater Boston College in the future, we would not have this splendid site on which our Alma Mater has been built. The retreat of last fall was different from other retreats we have made during our college course in that it was a retreat of election intended to help the student to choose his station in future life, and for three days Father Gasson in his sermons helped us to decide what line of action each one of us was best fitted to take up when we leave old B. C. to go out into the world. All studies are suspended during these days of retreat, in order that the student ' s communion with the Great Professor may not be disturbed by outside affairs. Who can tell the graces received, the benefits derived from a retreat of this kind? True, indeed, are the words of one of our great non-Catholic statesmen: A splen- did education is not all that a young man gets at a Jesuit College. Page one hundred ninety Page one hundred ninety-one HENRY E. FOLEY FATHER SULLIVAN CHARLES F. COLLINS Fulton Debating Society t True to the traditions of Alma Mater, and faithfully upholding the motto of their class, We lead, others follow, the orators of ' 22 have swept everything before them in collegiate and intercollegiate debating. Our energetic intercollegiate debate manager, Frank Turnbull, secured debates for us against Providence, Fordham and Holy Cross. The teams who faced these colleges were: B. C. vs. Providence, John Consodine, Frank Turnbull and Charles Tucker; B. C. vs. Fordham, Arthur Cusick, Frank Magennis and Henry Foley; B. C. vs. Holy Cross, Timothy Mclnerny, Charles Tucker and Henry Foley. While we rejoiced in the victory over Fordham on our home stage, we doubly applauded the victory over Holy Cross. That indeed, was a memorable event, when three thousand people saw the eagle scream in victory over the Purple orators, the largest crowd that ever attended an intercollegiate debate in America. Twelve hundred people sought in vain for admittance to that contest, and the trio who snatched the Alhambra Cup from the Holy Cross speakers in their own home town of Worcester made a new mark in the annals of B. C. debating. Finally came the trials for the prize debate, and the lucky men who won places in the finals were: Negative, John Carey, Frank Magennis and Arthur Frawley; Affirmative, Arthur Cusick, John Consodine and Charles Tucker. Henry Foley was not a contestant this year, having won the prize medal in his Junior year. The officers who successfully directed the work of the Fulton during the first term were: Henry Foley, president; Frank Turnbull, vice-president; John Con- sodine, secretary; Charles F. Collins, censor. The second term officers were: Charles F. Collins, president; Eugene Fanning, vice-president; John Craig, secretary; Frank Daly, treasurer, and William Long, censor. Page one hundred ninety-two Page one hundred ninety-three CHARLES A. REARDON MR. KELLEY, S. J. JOHN J. MURPHY Marquette Debating Society The Marquette Debating Society has enjoyed the most flourishing year of its existence during the year 1921-1922. This is due in great part to the splendid work of the moderator, Mr. Kelly, S. J., and to the officers of the society. It is the work of the Marquette to turn the timid student just out of high school into a confident orator. It is the work of the Marquette to send into the Fulton students able to hold their own in public anywhere. This work was vigorously undertaken in September and has been continued under the efficient direction of the officers. The glory of the Marquette was enhanced beyond the fondest dreams of these men when the Marquette debaters overwhelmingly defeated the Holy Cross team. Charles W. Sheehan, Josph M. Gavan and Joseph A. Turnbull were the men who turned the trick. By defeating the Holy Cross team they added further to B. C. ' s lustre which the Fulton speakers had already glorified by a brilliant victory over Holy Cross at Worcester. This was the first step in intercollegiate debating which the Marquette has attempted for several years. This auspicious beginning seems to indicate a new era in the history of the Marquette. The Marquette has had great debaters in the past, but we know that greater ones will follow, and the Marquette will hold a high place among the student organizations at Boston College. The following men have directed the Marquette during the past year: First term. President, Charles A. Reardon; Vice-President, John J. Murphy; Secretary, Francis B. Driscoll ; Treasurer, Joseph A. Turnbull ; Sergeant-at-Arms, J. Ray- mond Kavanaugh. Second term: President, John J. Murphy; Vice-President, James P. Aikens; Secretary, J. Burke Sullivan; Treasurer, Joseph A. Turnbull. The prize debaters were: Bernard J. Hawley, Joseph A. Turnbull, Charles W. Sheehan, Victor C. Carr, Joseph M. Gavan, James P. Aikens. Page one hundred ninety-four WALTER R. GRAHAM FATHER MURPHY The Dramatic Association st- The year in Boston College theatricals has been quite in keeping with the best traditions of the Dramatic Association. On the Heights the histrionic art has always merited serious attention, and the two productions of the past college year have greatly furthered the enviable record which the Maroon and Old Gold Dramatic Club has established throughout Greater Boston. The opening of College last September found the Dramatic Association minus several experienced players. The graduating class of 1921 had taken away some of the most talented Thespians, and the task of finding men to fill the places thus vacated at first seemed difficult. But it really turned out to be much easier than expected. Fr. Murphy announced a competitive trial for candidates, and was elated at the excellent showing made by the fifty men who presented themselves. After the trials had been completed the Association ' s officers for the year 1921 -22 were chosen, and Walter R. Graham, who had played the juvenile leads in fdruier years, was elected president. The Dramatic Association ' s first venture was a farcical comedy, A Day Lost, an adaptation of Arthur Wing Pinero ' s In Chancery. This play was excellently rendered, and was received with boundless enthusiasm by an audience which Page (Jiie hundred ninety-five The Dramatic Association [Continued) packed the Boston College High School hall. But the high-water mark of the year was reached in June, when the Association presented Shakespeare ' s As You Like It, an outdoor performance beautiful to look at, staged on the picturesque campus of the College. In this production the cast literally outdid itself, and gave a performance that surpassed in artistic fineness all previous offerings of Boston College Dramatic Associations. It was indeed a gala night, and the large audience gave every possible proof of the huge success of the performance. Rev. William E. Murphy, who for five years has guided the destinies of the Dramatic Association, has earned the right to be regarded as a master director. His has been a zeal which one cannot but admire, and his keen knowledge of the ins and outs of dramaturgy has been chiefly responsible for the brilliant achieve- ments of his players. Walter R. Graham leaves behind him the memories of many skillful performances and adds another name to the list of Fr. Murphy ' s star pupils. Nor can one be too warm in his appreciation of the notable work of Henry E. Foley, who, as advertising manager of the Association, secured and arranged the advertisements for the many artistic programs which were always a feature of every performance. George F. Olesen, Vice-President of the Associa- tion, and stage manager of every production during the past three years, merits unqualified approval for the painstaking manner in which he attended to every detail. The Dramatic Association loses but a few members by graduation. Prospects are bright for the success of the organization, and if we are to judge the future by the past a reasonable inference is that the coming years are rich in promise. Page one hundred ninety-six Page one hundred ninety-seven EDMUND J. MCGREENERY JOHN A. TOBIN T. FRANCIS BURKE Glee Club ± Four years ago the B. C. Glee Club was organized under the direction of Mr. Parsons, S. J., and since that time the club has steadily and surely advanced, until today it is one of the real great associations at Boston College, having en- rolled within its ranks one-eighth of the student body. The B. C. Glee Club is recognized today as one of the foremost among collegiate circles. During the initial season of the club a single concert comprised the year ' s activity, while last season more than twenty-five successful concerts were rendered to large and enthusiastic audiences. More than fifty thousand people heard the B. C. Glee Club last year, and during the season of 1921-22 even greater success was realized in the musical limelight. During the S. A. T. C. days, Mr. Parsons, S. J., was the club director; today a professional director, Mr. T. Francis Burke, is in charge of the club. Mr. Burke has an enviable reputation as a singer and is also leader of St. Catherine ' s choir in Somerville. The splendid calibre of the club, having within its ranks men of four years ' training, has made possible the singing of classic music. Its reputation, moreover, not only in Boston, but in other cities as well, is so good and its recognition so widespread, that it is feared that the large number of applications for concerts for next sesaon cannot be filled. The concerts rendered during fhe past season were indeed gratifying. The Octette made a great hit. The finesse of the renditions of the soloists brought forth thunderous applause and merited much praise from the critics. As usual, the popular duet of Bill Bigley, 1922, and Walter Downey was a great success. The annual concert was held in Symphony Hall, and although the walls of this hall have listened to the interpretations of many famous and illustrious artists from all parts of the world, the quality of the harmony and the volume uttered by the B. C. Glee Club far surpassed all these. And as we look still further into the future, we can justly say that you ain ' t heard nothing yet. Page one hundred ninety-eight Page one hundred ninety-nine These June hours are quiet hours in which the sweet is mingled with the sad, and we wish that they would never come to a close. Drifting lingeringly down the shadowy moments, it is enough to know in the end that we must say good-bye. The year ' s work is over. Our dreams have been fulfilled beyond expectation. Our success is not judged by ourselves but by others. The Stylus in every issue of the past year printed page for page more poetry and prose than any two other college literary magazines. As to the quality of these contributions, we refer to the exchange departments of nearly every college magazine in the country, for each exchange has featured at some time or other a review of the Stylus. Con- temporary criticism is always trustworthy, and judging from that which has been received we can in perfect justice say that the Stylus today is the leading college literary magazine of the country. It has established itself as a power in college activity, it has proved of interest to students and to the Alumni, and we, the Staff of Twenty-two are happy. For quiet, unassuming work, for earnest, self- sacrificing assistance at all times, for a true spirit that would batter empires down, the Stylus Staff of Twenty-two stands alone. The editor, Timothy A. Mc- Inerney, and his staff, feel proud of the work they have accomplished, and hope that the staffs of the future will keep the Stylus on the pedestal of honor on which it now rests. May that standard which we, the Staff of Twenty-two, have raised, be carried higher and higher, till at length it shall pierce even into Heaven. We now feel lonely on the shadow-clad campus, the dim grey spires are above us, the old pine trees are still nodding over College Road in the dusk. We bid good-bye to our old battered desks, they seem to know that we are going. Old memories and unforgotten associations rush up to us, we cannot think. We only know that we must say good-bye. The Staff of ' 22. Page two hundred The college year of 1921-22 has been a prosperous one for The Heights. Al- though The Heights is but an infant in years, it is today one of the finest college weeklies in the country. Its rapid growth has been nothing short of remarkable. Founded in the fall of 1919 at the request of upper classmen, it has steadily increased in quantity and quality and has fast become an institution of the college. The foundation of The Heights was carefully laid by the first two editors, John D. Ring, ' 20, and John B. Donahue, ' 21, and the present success of the paper is due in no small measure to their zealous efforts. During the past year the staff of The Heights has been completely reorganized. Editor Walter R. Graham and Business Manager Osgood J. Currier were quick to see the immediate need of a more efficient organization, and lost no time in establishing it. The staff, which in former years numbered some dozen men, now contains more than fifty members, and is adequately divided into editorial, busi- ness and advertising departments. This increase in the number of staff members, together with the fact that the policy of The Heights is to maintain an open door for all ambitious candidates, has greatly increased the interest of the student body. Truly, the popularity which The Heights owns among the students is one of the strongest factors in its remarkable growth. As a member of the Inter- collegiate Newspaper Association, The Heights sent representatives to Ithaca to attend the second annual convention of that organization at Cornell University. Editor Walter R. Graham has worked with unquestioning faith for the success of The Heights and has discharged his difficult task admirably. Osgood J. Currier has been an able business manager, ever efficient with businesslike decisiveness. Thomas F. Mahan has held the position of advertising manager since the foun- dation of the paper, and its present sound financial status is high tribute to his singular ability. Associate Editors Daniel J. McSweeney and Clement G. Jordan will long be remembered for the excellence of their humorous writings, and the faithful work of Associate Editor William Long cannot be overrated. To the remainder of the staff one gives due meed of praise. They are all deserving of the highest approval. Yes, The Heights is still in its infancy. The future looms gloriously before it, and the Staff of 1921-22 lays down its pen content in the knowledge that it has paved the way for greater achievements. Page two hundred two Page two hundred three JOHN A. ECKER FATHER LYNCH Radio Club ± Tlie Boston College Radio Club, organized in September, 1919, continues to be one of the most active and most prominent organizations at the Heights. Elections were held at the beginning of the 1922 semester and the following officers were chosen: John A. Ecker, ' 23, President; Martin E. Griffin, ' 25, Vice- President; Alfred J. Bedard, ' 23, Secretary. Due to the generosity of His Eminence Cardinal O ' Connell, two modern re- ceiving sets are possessed by the club. One of these, of the DeForest type, is used for long-wave and trans- Atlantic work. Such stations as Lyons, France, and Nauen, Germany, may be easily heard with this set. The other set, of the Grebe type, is used for short waves or amateur work. The receiving range of this set for amateurs is almost illimitable, stations as far distant as California having been heard. A one-kilowatt spark set is used for transmitting. The club boasts of five licensed operators, and in the near future expects to add to this list many more, who are at present under the daily instruction of these operators. Living up to its motto, Progressivism, the Radio Club is negotiating plans for the construction of one of the most powerful radio phones in this part of the country. With this set conversations are expected to be held with Fordham, Holy Cross and the various colleges of the country. Page two hundred four FRANCIS J. TURNBULL, PRES. JOHN A. TOBIN, S. J. Science Club ■ Knowing the need of something to aid B. C. men who were planning to take professional courses at Tech or other scientific schools after graduation, Mr. John A. Tobin, S. J., instituted the Science Club last fall at the Heights. The idea was well received, and about fifty students joined. The officers elected were: Francis J. Turnbull, ' 22, President; Walter A. McSweeney, ' 22, Vice-President, and Alfred J. Bedard, ' 23, Secretary and Treasurer. The purpose of the club was to bring together those men who intended to specialize in the sciences, to give these men an opportunity to learn the nature of the work in the various branches of engineering and to present the require- ments for admission to advanced standing in various engineering schools. To accomplish this was a huge task, nevertheless because of the fine spirit of co- operation shown by the faculty and the members of our Alumni and the Alumni of other Jesuit Colleges who are now at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the club successfully carried out its entire program. Talks and illustrated lectures were given by members of the faculty, some of whom are Technology graduates, covering various fields of engineering and other scientific subjects. Graduates of B. C. and Fordham gave the members some idea of what they might expect and what might be expected of them at M. I. T. Special thanks is due Dean Father McHugh, who co-operated with the officers always, to Mr. Tobin, S. J., Mr. Kelly, S. J., Mr. Meiggs, M. I. T.. and Mr. Ma- honey, M. I. T. ' 21, of the faculty. The Science Club is also very grateful to Joseph J. Forrester, B. C. ' 18, M! I. T. ' 22, Thomas Sheeran, B. C, M. I. T. ' 22, and M. Naushton, Fordham ' 15, M. I. T. ' 22.

Var- sity guard for four years, and they don ' t make them any better. When the signal came for a play through Jim ' s territory there was a hole in the oppos- ing line that you could drive an ice wagon through. But when the other side had the ball they received many a rude jolt when they tried to bowl Jimmie over. His position was well nigh impregnable, as they say in the liooks. It ' s going to take a big man, a good man, and a good big man to fill Jininiie ' s shoes next fall. KEL And here is our other guard, Smil- ing George Kelley, or as the Texas fans called him, the giant Catholic guard. And a good natured giant he is. Whether tearing apart the big Yale line, or tossing the Georgetown or Holy Cross huskies around, he never lost that smile. George could emerge from the bottom of any pile of warriors and grin through three inches of mud at the whole universe. Playing a wonderful game of football was great fun for Kel but no liiii for the other fellow. Ask anyone who ever played against him. Page two hundred nine KEWPIE The greatest defensive fullback in college football, is what many sport writers say of Bill. Uncanny ability to diagnose a play, together with fear- less and ferocious tackling have earned this title for Kewp. Bill really be- longs with us, but he is coming back next year to win an additional degree. When his teammates heard this they immediately elected him captain, and it was a wonderful choice. Remember that last Holy Cross game when it took about five men to take Bill off the field after he had been hurt? Every inch a football player, every inch a gentleman, he will make a splendid captain. NEL Untiring perseverance and ceaseless endeavor is the secret of Nel O ' Brien ' s success. For four years he has striven for a place on the Varsity eleven, and in his Senior year the goal of his am- bition was reached. Boston College for four years has been favored with ex- ceptionally good center material, and the wealth of this material is all that kept Nelson from winning his B be- fore. When Nelson did get a chance to show his wares with the first string warriors he played a slashing game against Fordhani, Georgetown and Holy Cross, Page two hundred ten WALTER A. COMERFORD, CAPT. JOSEPH BEAVER, FRANK V. C A VAN AUG II, COACH Football ± Vi hen tlie Class of 1922 entered iipf)ii its caipcr at the Heights olive drab was the prevailing color, and because of their military duties our embryo football stars did not have a chance to show their true worth. With the advent of the Fall of 1919 the names of Doyle, Kelly, Heaphy and Kelliher were known to every Boston College follower, alumnus and undergraduate. That was the memorable year when Cav ' s team administered their first defeat to the Bulldog of New Haven; our great Jesuit rivals were likewise routed, and the next year those victories were repeated. A large part of the glory of these victories comes to ' 22 through the work of the above named warriors. Nobody played a full game against Jack, who is now an ex- ' 22 man. Jim Dovle, our esteemed president, and George Kelly, of All-America calibre, played the guard positions in a manner becoming veterans of four years, which they were. As a result of their experience their positions were invulnerable. Although not so successful against our great rivals. Holy Cross, this year, we opened the eyes of the football public with our great victory over Baylor Uni- versity in sunny Texas, after a 2,00()-mile trip, the longest ever taken by a Maroon and Gold eleven. Jim, George and Bill upheld the prestige of 1922 on this trip. Bill decided to return for an A. B. degree, and was chosen captain of next year ' s gridders. Nelson O ' Brien, a ' 22 man, and a newcomer to the squad last year, played center, and so entered the realms of B rnen. He, with Jim Doyle and George Kelly, the best pair ' of guards that ever step|)ed up to the Heights, have finished their grid career, and the men of 1922 wish them the same success in their life work that they have obtained on the football field. Joseph E. Beaver. ' 22. Page two hundred eleven Page two hundred twleve Page two hundred thirteen Page two hundred fourteen Hockey prospects were so satisfactory for the coming season that when the ques- tion of dropping the sport was put before the student athletic council they would not consider such a thing. No sir, not after the showing made during the previous season; and the team would only lose two of the regulars by graduation, Frank Morrissey and Luke Urban. Cambridge High and Latin School contributed much to the success of our hockey team in past years, but especially this year we might as well call her the Santa Claus of B. C. hockey, for from there came John They Shall Not Pass Fitzgerald, goal; John Culhane and Sonny Foley, forwards, while John Curry, a forward, and Ed. Garrity, a defense man, came from Cambridge a few years ago. The other new man on the team is Charley Donnellan, of football fame. Leo Hughes was again the team ' s captain, and showed by his performances that he was deserving of the honor. Ask Eli — he will tell you. Len Morrissey, the defense man, along with Ed. Garrity, are both hard workers and saviors of many a game. There are also on the list dependable men who can be called upon any time with assurance. They are Ray Duffey, Al. O ' Neil and Bill Morrissey, who are clever stick handlers, and Dan Murphy at goal. Coach Fred Rocque was again the cause of our success; his ardent interest in the team caused the downfall of such teams as Tech and Yale, for what he does not know about hockey is a minus quantity. Page two hundred fifteen Page two hundred sixteen ••DiN(;i:ir dolan ■ ' A tho ' oughbred, suh. This famous Kentucky toast rests lightly on Dinger ' s shoulders. Breed- ing, grit and training, the qualities of a real thor- oughbred, are found in our own entry in the Thor- ough bred Slakes. His auburn colors have always been found in the van and rose to their greatest heights when competition was stiffest. For the past four years he has been the hardest working man on the squad and in his Senior year he came into his own and received manv blue ribbons. Who ' s that big like a baseball? Oh, that ' s Sam Bell of Senior indulging in a little practice. You know, Sam stayed right with it and got so he could toss it far enough to win a second in the Intercollegiates at New York. But the funny thing is that Sam, as big as he is, is also a mighty fine high jumper. He soars over the bar like a spring zephyr. Sam is one of the proud wearers of the B in Senior and like all good things it came after hard work.

Jim was formerly Junior Nation- al 880 champion and for two years at the Heights was a member of the relay team that cleaned up everything in sight.

DRISCOLL, CAPT. JOHN D. KELLEY, MGR. Track When we arrived little was known of the fleet-footed wearers of the Maroon and Old Gold. Before we depart Boston College is known throughout the country because of her success on the board and cinder path. One of our classmates is James W. Jake Driscoll, who broke the world ' s record for the 500 yard run, while a Sophomore, also becoming the N. E. and Eastern Intercollegiate Champion, N. E. A. A. U. Champion and National Junior A. A. U. Champion. He became the latter when he did 48 2-5 at Pasadena July 2, 1921, breaking the A. A. U. Junior and Senior 440 yard records. Jake for the last two years has captained the Track Team and also has run anchor on the Varsity Relay Team during his four years in college. Jim Cafl rey, former holder of the National Junior half mile championship, another member of the famous Class of ' 22, joined our ranks during 1921. Jim came to the Heights from Tufts College and has run on the relay team the two past seasons. Dinger Dolan was captain of the Cross Country Team during the past sea- son, and in the B. A. A. Indoor Meet of 1921 Dinger proved his worth by winning the one mile handicap race from a field of strong contestants. Jerry Deeley, another distance man and also a member of the Cross Country Team helped B. C. to win the Eastern Intercollegiate Championship by placing in the mile run after running the race of his life. Ed Bell and Ray Drugan, both letter men, upheld the honors of Boston College and the Class of ' 22 in the running broad jump and the weight events, proving to be dependable point scorers. Thus runs the history of the Class of ' 22 on the track. We are sorry to leave you, Boston College, but now we must join in the race of life — may we always prove to be the victors. Page two hundred twenty Page t v THOMAS J. MURPHY, CAPT. JOHN TOOMEY, MGR. WILLIAM COADY, COACH Basketball At the beginning of the year there was considerable doubt as to whether the College would support a basketball team on account of the fact that the cost of financing a team usually exceeded the money taken in at the games. However, the problem was solved by the generous offer of the alumni to make up any deficit entailed at the end of the season. We were very fortunate in securing Bill Coady as a coach. Coady is an authority on basketball around this section of the country, and the members of the team, both experienced and newcomers, have learned from him many of the fine points of the game. Despite the late start Manager Jack Toomey succeeded in arranging an im- posing schedule. Although the basketball team did not win as many games as we would like to see them, still a very creditable showing was made. The veterans of last year on the team are Captain Murphy, Jim Hickey and Bill Melley. Completing the first team are Jim Farrel and Art Tierney. Others on the varsity squad who showed up well when the chance came are Chuck Ansaldo, Frank Mooney and Ed Mockler. The high scorer for the season was Art Tierney followed closely by Hickey and Farrel. Basketball has not yet attained at Boston College the popularity accorded to the other sports, but with time we believe that this sport will boom, and in like proportion the excellence of our basketball teams.

Baseball ■k It Uiis carh in Maiili when our new coach, Olaf Heiulricksen called out the candidates and the niiniber of recruits to answer was the greatest that has ever turned out at tlie Hei ;hts. Yes, the prospects look bright enough to warrant the prophecy that Holy Cross will be on the small end of the score when the teams battle in June. Captain Jocko Halligan, veteran of three years at first base has now become one of the best first sackers in college baseball. In the catcher ' s position the team is well fortified with Tom Foley, Ed Phillips and Jim Listen, any one of whom is dependable. Although this is Foley ' s first year of college baseball he has gained experience playing summer ball and his heavy stick coupled with stellar work behind the bat makes him a valuable asset to the team. Lank Harry Mullowney, southpaw de luxe, leads the pitchers followed by little Jimmy Kelly, Bill Vargus and Steve Patten. These are all veteran nioundsnien and are not easily defeated. Johnny Cody, from Lynn, nosed out George Dowd for second and immediately showed the coach that he had the stuff. This was Johnny ' s third year representing Boston College on the diamond and he certainly ended his career in a blaze of glory. The rest of the infield was well guarded by Ted Palmer and Sonny Foley, a newcomer on the Heights who immediately showed his worth as a third baseman. The outer garden presented a pretty picture during a game with such capable performers as Chuck Darling of football fame, Comerford and Tom Phillips. With this material, it is easy to understand how u|i to the time of going to press the team has not lost a single game, even though our efficient, hard- working manager, Jack White, arranged an exceedingly stiff schedule.

Mr. McSweener: The thesis reads: The impressed sensibilis fried egg is the cog- noscitive abba dabba of the working intellecl as such. Adversaries: Haig and Haig, John Walker and Jesse James. Definitions of terms: The impressed sensibilis fried egg is the intellectus havva snavva of the cranial cavity. The cognoscitive abba dabba is the vvhoozis of the conundrum situated in the left wing of the posterior nares. The working intellect is the intellect with its overalls on. Proof: If the impressed sensibilis fried egg is the abl)a dabba of the working intellect as such, then it is. But it is. Therefore it is. Proof of the first part: Experience, consciousness, consent of mankind, declaration of independence. Proof of minor: The whole cannot be greater than any of its parts. Example, a doughnut. Ergo : The thesis is proved. We hold this thesis with Bill Roche, ' -Bugs Baer and Sliding Billy Watson. Mr. Doyle: The working intellect may call a strike. Therefore the thesis is false. Mr. McSneeney: Deny the suppositum. Subdistinguish the order of corned beef. The working intellect cannot call a strike without the abba dabba which is foreman over the working intellect. Mr. Doyle: The impressed sensibilis fried egg cannot be the abba dabba if it is the havva snavva. But it isn ' t. Therefore it is. Mr. McSweeney: I dislingnisli.

But an ens ab alio is not a fried egg. Therefore, the impressed sensibilis fried egg is not the abba dabba. Mr. McSneeney: The egg can be either fried or boiled. Nego conclusion.

It was on this night at the Hotel ictoriii that we gathercfl 12o stniiin to eat, drink and be merry and to pay homage In (nir noted classnialo and atlilete, James W. Jake Drisfoll. The lian(|iu ' l was a glorious success from grapefruit cocktail to demi-tasse. The many entertainers who furnished the mirth for the evening were, in every case, live wires. Father Beglan honored us with his presence and gave us one of the finest talks we have ever listened to. Russet Appul (Charles S. Donelanl of East Burlap fame was among those present and helped to keep us in good spirits by relating many witty after-dinner stories. The premier rendition of our class song was given by Ed McGreenery and Bill Bigley and was greeted with unbound- ed enthusiasm. Walter Graham read the Class Statistics, Bill Sheehan gave us a neat vaudeville act, Tim Mclnerney recited a la Service, Charles A. McCarthy distributed favors and Dan McSweeney and Jim Dovle had us in an uproar with their mirth-provoking psychology circle. A handsome testimonial, the gift of the Class of 1922, was presented to class- mate Jake DriscoU bv President Jim Doyle, while the entire class stood and roared its approval. The success of the evening was due in no small measure to the efforts of the Banquet Committee headed by Ray Drugan and to the zealous and able work of President Doyle and Toastmaster McSweeney. It was indeed a wonderful even- ing, the remembrance of which will trulv grip the hearts of 22 when ' 22 is old.
