Our labor and time will be vastly re- warded if, in the class of nineteen hundred and thirty-two alone, this work revives that past culture for which our education at Boston College has laid the foundation, and which is so sorely needed in this age of false philosophies.

Pelloc in contributing the following introduction tor Sub Turri- I9J2, has done us a kindness, appreciation for which we cannot express in words other than those whose simplicity we know he will surely understand: SOB mmm โ ' ' โขa. Sntrobuctorp Jl )t Eisijt darter [i ' npijnghl, ly.iJi THE great advantage of the monastic training, which was the only educa- tional training Europe received for over a thousand years, the training which built up the whole of our civilization, was primarily its certitude โ which involved continuity. It had one philosophy running throughout: therefore the order in which things were taught, the relative importance given to the subjects, the life which was emphasized as the right life to be led by those thus educated, was all known. It was not a matter of mere opinion, but formed part of the teacher and the taught. On this ac- count it created a permanent and stable society. If what it had taught had been false, or in as much as it had been false, that society would not have been stable โ which it most eminently was. But the philosophy was true, and by means of the education based upon it our culture was rooted and estab- lished. On mere opinion or on changing philosophies nothing can be erected, least of all a system of education. But what is worse than a lack of certitude and almost worse than a lack of truth, is the effect upon education of abandoning the right order in which things should be taught. In the modern world the attempt at a right order has been simply abandoned. The principle is taken for granted that a right order cannot be discovered, and that therefore the only things certainly taught shall be the things immediately and material- ly necessaryโ and even those are left to the chance of changmg moods, so that, for instance, one kind of history is taught in one generation, and - SOB SORBI o ' another in another; one set of subjects is omitted in one generation, and another in another: there is no permanence or continuity. Now the right order is manifestly to begin by teaching the philosophy itself, which is, in the case of a true philosophy, theology. The basis of all education must be the instilling of first principles upon right and wrong, the nature of man, his fate, his responsibilities. Today the nearest thing we get to that is the instill- ing of the religion of patriotism, the wor- ship of the nation, which is of course idolatry โ not because the nation should not be served or loved, but because to make it the chief end of man ' s respect and activi- ties is to substitute the nation for God; and to substitute anything created and temporal for God is idolatry. So much being known, the next thing to teach was all that by which civilization had come to be what it was; therefore Latin was taught, because Latin was the language of our civilization and the common bond โ the language not only of religious ritual but of wisdom and learning and intercourse between men of various local speech. There can be no Christendom without some common tongue of this kind. Only after the emphasis on this most important thing of all, and next to it the sense of continuity with the past, came immediately necessary material things. Further, it must be remarked that educa- tion meant, as it ought to mean today, not only the teaching of certain common facul- ties in reading and writing and counting, but the teaching of the arts: how to carry on whatever business you had taken up โ husbandry, carpentry, building, writing, painting, sculpture, and the rest. Education which sacrifices such things to the mere power of reading print is on a false basis altogether โ and on how false a basis we can see by the tyi e of i)rint that modern education causes to be read. ?โข= SOB GORKT These characters in the old and solid education whicii we have lost were emphasized by the nature of the teachers. Until that lamentable break-down of the Middle Ages which led at last to the awful catastrophe and shipwreck of the Reformation, when Christendom broke asunder and a moral chaos succeeded it which has not yet settled, the monastic ideal was retained intact. Had it been sufficiently supported and revived even as late as the fifteenth century the catastrophe would never have come. Now that ideal was based upon dis- cipline. The teacher had the character of obedience to known good and of self- re.striction for the purpose of that known good; so that what he taught to his pupil was exemplified in his self. It was a necessary consequence of these ideals that the people taught under this educational system were chosen for their aptitude to this or that โ the Church, or a craft, or the social duties to which they had been born โ and not by the worst of all methods, which is the possession of wealth. When monastic education broke down there gradually succeeded to it (especially in the Protestant countries) a system under which it was supposed that the things which were better worth knowing could only be taught to the wealthier classes. Whence followed innumerable evils, of which per- haps the worst has been the idea that in order to promote the health of society you must cause the poor to imitate as much as possible the culture and manners of the rich โ a lamentable folly through which our society today, with its compulsory universal state instruction, stands in peril of death.

FELIX FRANCIS ALBANO PHIL is a chap whose personality will ever remain individual. He pos- sesses the disposition his name implies and the sense of humor it in- volves has cheered many a gloomy gathering and just as often soothed many a hotly-worded one; though we shall remember Felix as one who spoke little, we shall always recall that he said much, principally because he was a splen- did listener. This quality in him he used to advantage scholastically, and we are quite safe in saying that this uncommon characteristic of intelligent reticence will do much for advancement along the road to happiness and success.

We can conclude from this โ and rightly, too โ that his marks never need be concealed; for Joe had a quick and lively mind. And along with this went the other half of the mens sana in corpore sano, for Joe spent his summers around Lake Waldon, where he undoubted- ly gained that jovial disposition when he is humorous, and considerateness when he is himself.

He was never at a loss to name the right man for the right hour and in times of difficulty chairmen and officers always rested upon his broad dependability, so that throughout college he was associated with outside interests.

Tom has always been with the leaders in scholastic standing and his initiativeness and friendly, likeable personality have won many friends.

But one thing that has impressed us is that he is a pleasant chap, and by that word we mean that he is one who laughs heartily at hearty humor: he himself cracks a clever bit of verbiage once in a while; and he is always ready to join in with group or individual in behalf of work โ for in the pursuit of his chosen profession โ medicine โ this is the main asset, and Mike has plenty of it.

And we might add that Joe ' s physical size is a very fine indication of the breadth of his mind and the goodness of his heart. For seldom have we seen such a calmness of mien, such complete composure under any and all difficulties as has been evinced by this same complacent gentleman. His absolute disregard of difficulties enabled him to sail a straight course to success in scholastic attainments, and it was this very trait which won him the friends who sing his praises.

As a personable chap, Bres has an exceptionally lively humor, a snappy comeback for every sally made to him, and a fund of information on every subject in vogue, from pretzels to socialism.

He has been a splendid worker at the Heights and in his busy-ness he has never been too occupied to lend a helping hand.

He is one of those care- free, happy-go-lucky individuals who lends distinction to any class. Wher- ever a group was gathered there in its midst could be found the genial Cal relating past events or predicting future happenings. As a student Cal was always quite proficient and has never experienced difficulty in mastering great problems. In his life ' s vocation we wish him the greatest of success, for as a fine worker he is deserving of all good which may come to him.

GALLERY T ITAMIN D we have called him because his surname is a phonetic for ย a certain unit of heat; but more properly will it be assigned to a sunny disposition, for we associate with this athlete-scholar an excellent sense of humor, a splendid repertory of jokes and sallies, and an intelligence no less acclaimable on the athletic field than in the classroom. Though he impressed us first as a quiet lad, we know him to be more a modest and retiring chap than a bashful, quiet fellow. His earnestness and sociability surely augur well for a brilliant future.

WILLIAM LEO CANNON TO some of us who first met Bill at Camp Devens summers ago. Bill ' s decisiveness and military snap become understandable. Map reading for the War Department, studying history, and debating were his hobbies and he accomplished them with characteristic dispatch. But Bill is well rounded, too. He sent eminent contributions in poetry to the college liter- ary organ and it is rumored that he nourished no hostility for the social life. All of which is not surprising for we found him the most companionable of fellows, and to the nine-twenty-five Lake Street crowd a most obliging one. Scholarship was yours, but rather we ' ll remember you as the genial lad of companionable sociability.

ADDRESS William Leo Cannon .52 Fairbanks Street, Brighton, Mass. JOHN PATRICK CAREW THERE were many sides to the make-up of this young man. Jack was met at Chesterton ' s Boston debate on divorce, at Symphony Concerts, at the important track meets. Sport Shows, and in various other walks and circumstances of activity. And he himself was versatile, with that admir- able attribute โ the quality of making few but loyal, lasting friends. In fact, he and Nicholson were looked upon as the Nisus and Eurylus of the class.

In class T. Stanislaus stands out not merely for knowing his matter but for being able to practice it and robe it with an original and vital humor that is refreshing (and has won numerous admirers who will never forget T. S. ' s fun-fests) and enhances his arguments immensely. His personality and generosity need no en- comium. They are monumental testimonies in themselves. In short, Tom ' s there and we all like him.

Carey 41 Concord Avenue, Waltham, Mass. ELMO THOMAS CARR ELMO is strangely reminiscent of Little Jack Horner who sat in the corner. He has a mischievous gleam in his eyes, is extraordinarily quiet, and loves to be alone and left alone. But even when he ' s alon e in his corner he doesn ' t eat all his pie but gives most of it away and it ' s usually labelled: Elmo. We ' ve often wondered how so quiet a lad ever made his way in to school from Lynn on cold and snowy mornings; (we have since found out that his warm heart melted a path and drew out the sunshine!)

CARROLL T URING the last four years we have had the opportunity of becoming acquainted with a fellow whose personality is even appreciated in Chelsea! Quite a few of the home-towners recognized his worth during Bill ' s four year course at Chelsea High and so impressive has he been during his stay at the Heights that with certainty it can be said this individual will never pass into the realm of the forgotten. Although a serious chap with a bent toward concentrated study, Bill played an important role in social functions. Basketball kept him in good shape for undertaking the higher pursuits. His sincere and open manner will often be a source of sunshine to those who know him. ACTIVITIES Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 2, ' 1; Chelsea B. C.

C ASHEN COMING in early every morning from Stougliton did not take away any of the inimitable cashenian humor of this lad. If anything, it must have added to it. For Cliff was always the first to become jocular with professors and pupils alike. He could afford the former diversion for the very reason that he maintained a splendid scholastic record and he was al- most invited to in the second case because both enjoyed it. When the passage from the wilds permitted, Cliff would cast his favored smile and school-boy complexion upon the social gatherings where he was just as much a favorite as in class.

EDWARD CASPER DOC Casper was one of those students whose face, in stoical severity, concealed the attributes of the man; whose tongue, in satisfied rest, spoke little of his actions; whose personality, devoid of forced expression, was impassive to intimates. Silence, modesty, and humility are virtues. However, his norm seems to be in medio stat virtus. Under that standard we foresee the achievement of this youth. May he ever remind us that the world knows little of its greatest men. ACTIVITIES Baseball 1; Track 1, 2, 3; Radio Club 1; Military Club 1; Ethics Academy 4; B. C.

CASS EDWARD CASS has a special fondness for cameras and there is very little he does not know about photography. And Ed himself is some- what like the complex machinery of a camera. As a student Ed has always been an honor pupil, ending his senior year with summa cums all around. As an athlete Ed haS been with the leaders in the professional world of fenc- ing and a splendid tennis player. As a writer he has contributed several of the most entertaining of articles and essays to the Stylus. But most of all, his character has been like the complexity of the camera: after all the click of shutter, the changing of films, the developing and printing, the result is truth. Ed has been just as above board and just as true.

CASSIDY SOME are interested in attaining a good scholastic rating and as a result have little concern for anything but the books, but not so with this young man. He has been as a rule quiet and retiring, but nevertheless he has been an active supporter of all class functions and extra-curricula activities. It is true that he has done especially well in his studies and has in consequence earned the worthy name of student. We shall remember Frank because he has always been a cheery sort, with a kind and encouraging word for everyone. .ACTIVITIES Sodality 1, 2. 3, i; Marquette Debating Society 1, 1 Academy 4: Von Pastor Historical Society 3, i: French . cademy 2, , ' 3, 4. ADDRESS Francis Henry Cassidy 22 Water Street, Winchester, Mass. Ethic Track 3, 4 JAMES T. CAVANAUGH WHEN that old and truthful adage came into being: Still waters run deep, we feel sure that it must have been stimulated by the study of someone possessed of a character and temperament similar to Jim ' s. Most of us can ' t remember his saying more than a dozen words, except when up in circle; and then it was a pleasure to listen to Jim, because he had been silent and attentive in class and then could give back anything required of the course, and this to an extent to be envied by his classmates. Jim has been a hard worker and will always be. Rumor hath it that he intends to follow up the insurance game, well, if his dress and manners and looks mean much, it will be rather difficult to go uninsured.

His ability to flash the happiest and broadest grin at the college, and his fun-loving nature dis- tinguished him as one of the pleasant fellows in the class. With a disposi- tion such as his, we honestly believe that there is nothing in life that will even begin to worry this gay caballero who, we are sure, will go forth into the biggest game of all with the same courage and sportsmanlike conduct that was characteristic of his activities on the field of battle.

ADDRESS George Colbert 25 Maverick Street, Dedham, Mass. JOHN E. COLITEN IN every class there are some whose sincerity is too strong and whose earnestness of purpose is too intense to allow them to play the hail-fellow- well-met. From this there comes upon them a solitariness which, if it de- prives us of knowing them intimately, leaves our liking for them undulled. And of this class John is one. But here general characterization ends and the impression of individual strength manifests itself most particularly in directness of thought and terseness of speech. When this sincerity of pur- pose that is yours ends in accomplishment, we hope we still know you, for then your solitariness will melt into companionability.

Some friend of his has said of him He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty. And why be ruffled? For Jerry is an honor man in his studies; he is exceedingly well liked by his classmates because of his genial and like- able personality; his diplomatic brevity of speech, his quick responses to any question put him; his agility in difficult or humorous situations, and lastly, his own wit and cleverness, have made him friends and friends.

COLLINS TOHN was the type of individual who pursued his studies with skill, de- termination and emphasis. Then, he was associated with the Somerville Public Library, on which account he was taken from us each day as soon as the classes ended. But in the short hours of actual study we came to know him as a very likabl ' e and sincere young man, whose main virtues were righteousness, a calm affability, and an expressed love of Boston College and every man who was of Boston College. There have been few occasions when we have seen John at his leisure, but in these periods he has evinced the qualities of a good listener, and the capabilities of an apt conversational- ist. We hope to see more of you, John! ACTIVITIES Sodality 1, 2; Track 1, 2, 3; Ethics Academy 4; Somerville B. C. club 1, 2, ;5, i: Physics Academy 3. ADDRESS .John J.

Here is a gentleman whom we know will go far in life because with his steady and untiring study, his manly personality, and high intelli- gence is that quality to be desired in every man โ a fine sense of balance in things needing thought and weighing. An opinion or statement from Tom Collins was always respected, because we knew him as one who spoke only after he was at least subjectively certain. Those who know him as a friend are to be envied, because his loyalty to school and mates was admirable. ACTIVITIES Baseball 1, 2, 3; Football 1, 2; Ethics Academy 4; Sodality 1,2,3,4.

And any lad who can go through four years of study without cultivating at least one gray hair is an extraordinary youth. He has been quiet and unassuming during his college career at the Heights institution, and his nonchalance and suavity has made him an unusual and an admired personality. With such a high sense of responsibility, we are sure that Ben will make the grade.

CONNELLY NEITHER classics nor sciences ever cast fear into John ' s heart, for he challenged them all, bowed to none, and came off victorious. His chief reason for success in college rests in the fact that he mingled recreation and study in their proper proportion and devoted himself whole-heartedly to each in its turn. His friendly manner and winning smile won many friendships. We shall miss John especially because he was ever willing to lend a hand at any task. We were ever aware of John ' s ideals, and a contin- ual striving to become ever sturdier in character.

He was always willing to co-operate in any activity where he thought he could be of assistance, and it is this sterling quality in him which has accounted for the strength of his friendships. In class, Dick was always a good student, one who knew the meaning of the word study and he put it into practice. And thus will Dick always be, a splendid worker and one who achieves by his labor.

A man of superior in- telligence, he conformed to the standard of those whose every effort begets accomplishment. The most rigid of his rules was: never feign to know: when certain, be to the point with brief utterance. In spite of his quiet, unassuming manner, he was pre-eminently present and all desired his com- pany. A friend to the last, a fellow who wanted to succeed, and one who thoroughly understood every predicament. Therefore he is one whom we shall always want to have as a pal.

CONNOR JOHN has been quite a surprise among us. He was so quiet and reserved in Freshman and Sophomore that not many knew him, but here we are ready to leave and in two years everyone knows him. His climb has been like his own personality โ impressive and impossible to ignore. His catchy, boyish smile โ amidst two unconceivable dimples, despite his efforts โ has become one of the prominent features, as it were, o f every senior social; and always is it welcome, because when it is in evidence, John is being inter- esting because he has come out from behind his quiet humor and reserved demeanour.

But in this length is conserved an energy, ability and personality which is nothing short of surprising. Joe is also the wearer of the dubitable distinction of Class Chauffeur. Which naturally leads us to his generosity, unquestionably his greatest asset. Joe was liked by everyone, and it can be said of him that he liked everybody. He had a proficiency for appraising everyone at his best. We shall long remember Joe for his talents of unusual degree, but we shall never forget him for his childlike nature.

We have heard of him in the capacity of a football player and as one of the best basketball men in the college. In the classroom his voice has been raised seldom but on those occasions always with forcefulness and convincing knowledge and argumentation. His friends have been of the few but firm type, because he exercised selection in all fields of endeavor. One quality he has which will never prove a burden to him is that he never is afflicted with worry, despite the fact that his hair has an attractive tint of greyness in it.

We shall always remember Will ' s quizzically smiling face all aglow at the thought of some new enterprise or some successfully concluded one.

In this unostentatious young man we find that rare quality of loyal friendship garb- ed in the royal purple of an understanding personality. His cheerful pres- ence, though imbedded in the calm exterior of seriousness, has been one of the stimuli among students to be better friends and gentlemen, for Bill himself was primarily a gentleman and only next to that a friend.

As an editorialist for the weekly and as a poet and short-story writer and essayist for the monthly magazine, not to mention biographical work for the Sub Tiirri, Jim has become quite the litterateur.

Too much cannot be said of his ability in this line, but one characteristic is most prominent in Fred : his willingness to sacrifice his own time for the benefit of and to proffer help to his fellow experimenters or students. He has been a serious student and one who worked hard when there was work to be done; but to balance this trait of plugging a great deal, he had a fine sense of humor and a keen appreciation of character and personality.

Though a lover of the arts he was none the less practical. He made use of his fine development to get results โ and his proper means always achieves for him his desired end.

Tom could accomplish quite a little within the clas ' sroom. Never did a cjuestion originate with him which was not of the highest order of intellectual difficulty. But few were the occasions when Tom made use of this procedure; little was beyond his capacity. A buddy of everyone who knew him, he was firm in his loyalty to everyone.

ADDRESS Francis Joseph Crump 153 Metropolitan Avenue, Roslindale, Mass. JAMES J. CURLEY TT is with extreme pride that we now unfold the characteristic traits of one - - of the most interesting personages of the class. Jim hails from Dorches- ter and we must render our sincere and respectful gratitude to that district for lending us such a character. He has been possessed of a charming de- meanour, both in studies and at work, for these pursuits go hand in hand with Jim. Besides his scholastic regime, baseball is his hobby, dances his weak- ness, and the theatre his pleasantry. So it is with a feeling of regret and a tinge of sadness that we say au revoir to our smiling friend and always hope to be wherever his modest influence, grace and charm may scintillate.

CURRY AFELLOAV ' S worth is best judged when he is a favorite with those who know him real well. Bill comes from Charlestown and anyone in that section who knows him thinks very highly of him. This is best evinced by the fact that while an undergraduate, he was selected as President of the Charlestown B. C. Club. But popularity was not his solitary forte. He was a very versatile fellow and was capable in spite of his divided attentions. We are given to understand he is quite a linguist and uttered many a perti- nent phrase before the Spanish Assembly. Bill has many fine qualities that cannot be enumerated in such a brief space. But that which we liked best of all was his retiring simplicity. This made him a friend of everyone.

He was the purveyor of a steadfast smile and a cheery word to everyone. He elicited a ready and genuine sym- pathy which marked him to many as that very rare friend in need. His scholarly attainments were of more than average calibre. And lastly, and as a summary, we state that he was a hard worker โ one of the better kind. We wish there were more like him.

CURTIN WE have yet to meet a more likeable lad from Suburbania than Micky Curtin of Maiden. Always a capable student and a companionable collegian, he possessed that esprit de camaraderie which made him popular with students and professors alike. But after all, popularity is only an index of worth; it doesn ' t constitute it. What is more important is, that he has an eagerness and ability for determined work that scarcely characterizes some of us.

Seldom indeed do we find a man who can go through four years of college and be universally liked and yet not one knows his first name! That is what this gentleman in question has done. He is Barney to his intimates, acquaintances, and teachers, even; but we found out in the school directory that his first name is really James. Yes, his is an Irish name: witty, fun-loving, warm-hearted, and wonder of wonders, he is endowed with a remarkable evenness of temper! His smile is always cheer- ful; his manner bouyant; and there is always sunshine in his heart. .ACTIVITIES Baseball 1, 2, S, i; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Ethics .Academy 4; Junior Week Committee; Cap and Gown Committee Chairman.

May this reserved young man always retain his boyish disposition and man- ners, so disillusion will never know him and so he will be able to .scatter cheer everywhere about him. His low voice and almost-bashful ways have made him a dear figure in ' 32. Especially shall we remember this quiet lad as an intelligent scientist.

LOUIS GEORGE DeANGELIS LOUIS is not one of your supercilious specimens of the Young Idea who make it a point to annoy all serious people with their flippancy; indeed, his earnestness was one of his cardinal virtues. He did not air his opinions until he was convinced of the righteousness of his cause, and he met argu- ment with argument until a decision for one side or the other was reached, for he never left an issue in doubt. Surely life would be brighter if every person were as unselfish, as cheerful, and as loyal as Louis, pride of the gens De Angelis.

But really, such an atmosphere has not harmed Bernie at all, for everyone knows him to be a splendid sort of fellow with a special talent for after-dinner speeches. He prepared for B. C. at Concord High School and entered with all sorts of credits and distinctions, and he has continued to hold the esteem of his classmates.

Nevertheless, it will be hard to forget the remarkable smile that spread over his sunny countenance, and his able wit that sent ns into spasms of genuine laughter. Eddie is a true friend and a man ' s man. There isn ' t a vestige of artificiality in his entire composition.

Joe has always been liked by both students and professors, for his personality is such that would make anyone like him who knew him. We should say that as a general rule Joe was quiet and reserved, but we do not mean that he was unsociable, for he was as friendly a boy as we would care to meet and it is almost unneces- sary to say that Joe goes forth with the best wishes of his classmates.

But though he is to a great extent a reticent lad, still we knew that if we could only get him interested in jocularity, he ' d bring his wit into play and then we had real humor. Frank, however, was a good friend, simple in taste and dress, steady in character and determination, and one who par- ticularly appreciated fairness and good sportsmanship.

In his dealings with his fellow classmates, John was always a gentleman and a sound business man. But I think we shall remember Dev principally as the football ace who met no better man than himself on the chalk-lined field. .ACTIVITIES Football 1, ' 2, :!, i- Baseball i: Ethics Clubs, 4: Sodality 1,2, :?, 4. .Vcademv 4; Business .ADDRESS .lohn DiVenuti 20 Villa .4 venue, Everett, Mass.

DONOHUE JIM is one of the humorists of the class โ or perhaps we should say one of the funny guys, because his jocularity does not merely entertain one, but makes one roar. This ability he has perhaps garnered from his reading โ he wears glasses sometimes โ books, magazines, newspapers, and text books. His chief accomplishment has been in the line of learning French. Of this language he has always been very fond and that perhaps accounts in a great measure for his fluency in it; because he also has a deep affection for things philosophical โ which pre-supposes a serious and earnest side. Jim is serious, too, when the occasion calls for it; and in just this way will he adapt himself later for the tasks at hand.

The only occasions we heard Fred was via the circle in Psychology or Ethics, or when asked a ques- tion. His willingness to answer difficulties or help those who sought help was balanced only by his cjuietness and modesty, for which he was admired by all who knew him. That he has enjoyed his career at college we do not doubt, because he came there to be educated and we know from his conversa- tion and marks that he has attained the goal he sought.

We have known Bill as an accomplished Thespian, a social executive, and as a writer. His work on the Heights for four years has been unquestionably of the highest type. That he did not assume a managing position is another fine instance of his intelli- gence โ in the Pre-Med course he knew it would be a handicap and so refused nomination. The characteristic we shall remember about Bill is that he took everything โ honor or disappointment โ always with modesty and appreciation.

MICHAEL FRANCIS FINN MIKE ' S boundless energy and his happy faculty of pleasing everybody assures the success of any undertaking which he tackles. The devo- tion of much of his time to outside activities, besides social affairs, has failed to lessen Mike ' s scljolastic ardor, and he has been rated and shown himself a real student. We have no idea to what field Mike will devote his talents but we do know that whatever he shall finally choose as his life work will eventually be crowned with success, for his pleasant personality and charac- teristics are such that they will make him prominent in any field of activity.

Frank was a staunch scholastic in philosophy and he well merited the esteem of his classmates for his sound thought and judgment. But his philosophical learning he salted with the savour of the arts in the English class. Truth and Beauty were ideals which Frank sought and we feel that he approached that ideal more closely than most of us. Athletics, too, he did not neglect but was an infielder for four collegiate years. In a word, you were the synthesis of scholarship and righteousness to us and we ' ll feel a sincere sadness at this separation.

Art is one of those super-rugged men who began the Pre-Med course and finished it with flying colors. He is destined for medi- cal school and we know he will be a success.

FITZGERALD UNDISMAYED by the s tudent ' s ordeal of four years ' commuting from Haverhill, Bill has persevered and used the hours consumed on the train to prove that one can be an honor student and at the same time a com- muter. It was an unusual and a noticeable thing to see Bill without his contagious smile; yet despite the fact that he was a serious student, he could not by any means be called a grind. We shall always remember Bill as quiet and friendly, one who was ever willing to put himself out for a friend.

FLANAGAN BILL is a classicist, if by that is meant one who loves and therefore studies โ the word has much meaning in it โ the old Latin and Greek works. And to sort of top it off in a modern fashion, or perhaps it were better to say equalize it, he has a fondness for the latest in detective stories. We might attribute this latter characteristic to the need of satiation of a very active brain, for Bill is one who thinks a great deal; he is quite the philosopher. It is reported that this young man is going to pursue that noble profession, pedagogy. We are sure that so calm and unruffled a lad, who is at the same time a master of his difficult elective โ Latin, is assured of future happiness.

And his wit arose from him and bubbled everywhere all about us for the entire four years. Charlie is serious in his humor, as he is in his scholastic activities. There is a vivacity and spontaneity in his nature that is more than deserving of mention.

And in the capacity of Class President Ed has done nobly. He has done almost the impossible, for he is graduating without an enemy! He has never played favorites but always acted for the good of his class. And he has been most versatile, with regular positions as varsity pitcher on the nine and regular end on the eleven.

WILLIAM DUDLEY JOSEPH GRIFFIN WE have often wondered why this nomenelatural young man has kept so quiet and reticent during his four years at the Heights university. The only answer is that he became the philosopher-ideal, that he studied and in consequence did a great deal of thinking and not much talking. He worked hard, did Bill, turning in his copy to the Heights regularly and in excellent shape; he was regular at the Business Club and the Academies โ in other words, this young man is a serious lad, who, though we know not any- one who laughs more heartily than he when he does laugh, keeps his word and his obligations, and accordingly is what we like to find in a B.

For four years we knew him in the French Academy, but admired him when our Quiz Masters drew from his latent modesty, a very excellent philoso])hical mind. These were the attributes of the student, but we found the fellow equally likeable. There was a proper reticence that well became your mind, John, but we were glad that when approached, it dropped into the companionability of good-fellowship. ACTIVITIES South Boston B. C.

For that his scholastic ability is nothing to be waved aside is evidenced by the fact that he has al- ways been an honor student and yet never a grind.

This young man is one of the most prominent of the scholars and social lions of the dear old ' 32 boys.

O, yes, his name: well, look at that shock of hair โ the envy of all who had to take showers after practice daily. And Kel has been as healthy in mind and word as he is in body. He has always been youthful and colle- giate, a light but loyal friend, and an Irish lad with an Irish heart of humor, laughter, and magnanimitv.

KILEY THERE is a temptation to become Chestertonian โ to talk in paradoxes โ when we discuss Fred Kiley. For Fred was a paradox animated in his every fibre with seemingly astounding contradictions. It is safe to say that few men in the class were as serious. Fred attacked each problem with the unbending purpose of reaching the core and solution of it. And it is not ex- travagant to state that Fred was unquestionably one of the greatest humor- ists among us. For his humor was serious, and his every grave task he attacked with true hilarity. We can remember him best from his conversa- tions which came drily from smiling lips, sending his hearers into paroxisms and perplexities. But it can be said that he was always valuable, for he always held to truth. ACTIVITIES Sli liis Essay Editor i: Sub Turri Biographical Stall ' i. ADDRESS Erederick L.

He is a fine type of lad, is Mac, and his good looks and fine bearing has been but second to a pleasant manner, a willing conversation, and a magnetic source of attraction in the way of making friends. One thinks Mac will best be remembered for his unusual intelligence in matters scientific.

FRANCIS McNERNEY FOR one thing, Frank actually enjoyed studying, although he was not a grind; he simply realized that the best manner in which to approach a difficult task was to work up enthusiasm for it. The hurry and bustle of endless diversified activity was not for him; rather did he choose to sit back for a while and calmly reflect upon the various modes of operation that were open to him. The wise man will not rush headlong into seemingly attrac- tive fields of endeavor, but will wait until his course is certain and pursuit will follow with unflagging effort. May he always continue his practice of scorning immediate profit and seeking more lasting benefit.

ADDRESS Francis J. McNerney 48 Evans Street, Medford, Mass. PAUL M. McSWEENEY SOME fellows are sufficiently fortunate to have a quiet, gentlemanly atti- tude without once becoming artificial. Paul, for four successive years, has coincided with this type without failing in the slightest degree to appre- ciate any situation. He never spoke with pretense and every action attrib- uted to him was planned in advance. Regularity in studies reaped for him unquestionable success. But Paul is not to be confused with the ill-thought- of grind. He was interested in all extra-curricular activities and never failed to lend his support and presence to every class prom. His type is always popular and to us who knew him he will forever remain a friend.

Which immediately conveys the impression of breadth of mind โ and rightly so. Bill has been successful in mastering the arts and sciences alike; but what is more, this capable young man is an athlete and sportsman. Sailing a yacht or sailboat in a choppy sea is his chief amusement, and the Waltonian art is but secondary.

Offhand, that seems to make him appear a backward, stupid sort of fellow; but not on your life, as one would say. It is because he can say more in one sentence than most of us in a chapter; and then again, half his talk is only to answer and solve difBcultie-s in calculus and differential equa- tions at which his ability is clearly proclaimed by the fact that next year he will return to the lab. as an instructor.

He could lead the entire student body in the paeans of the football field with the same ease that he displayed in the executive capacities he enjoyed in class activities.

He has been an ardent devotee of the Acaderaie Francais and we are sure that he has profited by his hours there for he is an industrious and hard-working young man.

For instance, there ' s the sense of values which he possesses. Then tliere ' s the sense of discrimina- tion, the God-given blessing of good humor, an apt evidence of appreciation, and a solid, clear intellect. These are the things which have made Gerry one of the most popular men in his class. And these are the things which guarantee him certain success in life.

He maintained his high average by hard and intensive study; he didn ' t, however, spend all his time poring over books since George was kept busy in outside work. Student and business man, yet George found time to indulge in one form of diversion โ dancing, and this tended to rest his mind from business and academic worries, also giving him grace of body to accompany his already well-manifested grace of mind, the combination making for a balanced man.

To a small number, he was known as a prince of good fel- lows. Bren was always a leader, never lagging, in physical contests as well as mental. With the same quiet assurance with which he would size up stronger and heavier opponents and proceed to defeat them by sheer courage and brains, so he would also choose his friends.

We shall always remember his cheerful, everpresent smile, which conveyed its happiness to all his friends. But most impressive of his reticence and character, was the serious and laughter-loving Catholicity of this college gentleman. We feel that his quietness will always serve as a winning influence, while his character will stand him well in later life, because he has about him maturity, steadfastness, and what we understand as the goods.

His contributions were unlimited; a good ball player โ who saw considerable service with the var- sity, a steady racquet wielder and a serious student, who experienced little difficulty in making the grade. But actual participation was not the cri- terion in his interest in College affairs.

He was the type that would use them properly and to their best advantage. There is still a necessity of stating that he got results โ such a fellow usually does. But apart from his efficiency, resulting from thought-out plans, Guido had a liking for extra-curricula activities, and most of his energy was spent in the successful management of the North End Clul).

PATTEN THERE are certain men to be found in every class who, by consistent effort and diligence, have brought themselves to the fore along academic lines. In this year ' s class Jack has the privilege of being among those thus honored. He is a ' good-natured student and one who has always shown the traits of a Catholic gentleman. He is likewise blessed with a quality that is universally admired in men of his calibre, namely, the power of ac- complishment. It is men of his sort that the world today is awaiting with outstretched arms, and we know that he will be welcome.

And along with them are the neat, clean appearance of the well-groomed man-of-taste, the ideal collegian, and a quiet voice which has won him many friends. In days to come, when John has reached his goal, we shall be proud to recall him as a friend who was ever ready to help a classmate, and who, thereby, not only gained for himself the foundations of character and success, but the more-to-be-admired acquisition, the respect of his fellow workers.

On this occasion we were forced to realize that Pete was not ony a forceful and talented speaker, but that the mind directing the flow of language was a truly keen and penetrating one. We cannot help but remember Quinn as Valedictorian of his class; but we are sure that the best remembrance we will have of him is that he was a regular fellow who treated everybody alike and who never called his time his own โ for he never saw one he could assist, to whom he did not lend a helping hand.

For Bill is widely liked and admired, which is sufficient reason for his great popularity. Most of us will remember Bill as the tall Dorchesterite with the perpetual grin, and the loud, cheery laugh, which was heard long and often as it rang through the lower rotunda and the classroom. Joviality is his greatest asset, and the cheer that emanates from him pervades the innermost depths of his farthest listener. But Bill is serious as well, and can adapt himself to his environment with ease. His fine scholastic record is a willing witness to this fact.

But the surprising thing is that he can keep so well up in class and yet be so active in extra-curricular activities. Especially during the Fulton Trial was John active as the star witness. John sits high in the hearts of all, not so much because he is one who can make you laugh, but because he is one who can make you feel serious.

This has been true because there is about John a deep and meaningful quietness, an expressionable modesty, and he has been intelligent and admired for his intelligence; but One quality of John ' s will always remain with his closer friends โ sincerity and loyalty. These two qualities have made him frank in his words and thoughts, and loyal in his deeds and actions.

His life here at the Heights has been rather a placid one but still he is known to most of ' 32, because he has been a fine student, a real college-man type, and one whose friendship meant more than acquaintanceship. Above all, he has been a student who was always willing to share his time and his knowledge and this is ever the mark of a scholarly fellow. It has been said of John that he never troubled trouble and trouble never troubled him โ and this has been due not a little to his cool collectiveness.

RAYMOND JOSEPH TIERNEY T AY is endowed with a personality of congenial individuality. Although - ' - naturally reserved and quiet, he has not allowed his sedateness to inter- fere with his building up a strong host of friends, for his pleasant smile and disposition continually infused a warmth that kindled many staunch friend- ships. Ray was a great man for getting lost in crowds. Then, presto! He would appear before us wreathed in merriment. But we have a feeling that he won ' t be so easily lost in the crowd of life. Gifted with a keen mind and a fine sense of proportion, substantiated with firm principles that have been ironed out by ethical and philosophic study, Ray won ' t fight the world โ but merely win it!

S 3 THOMAS MICHAEL TIERNEY A S a rule, when a man enters the Pre-Medical Course it is like going into โ - solitary confinement for a time โ in more ways than one, for not only do you have to give all your time and energy to the business, but that time is consumed in the most difficult of work. In addition, all claim to fame or popularity is lost โ except in a few individuals, and Tom is one Pre-Med boy who stands at the top of that few. In starting off the fall socials with the Fordham Dance, Tom did a splendid piece of work and it is typical of the administrative abilities of Mr. Tierney. When at last he stands with the sheepskin denoting an M.D., he cannot help โ not merely to be a fine Catho- lic doctor โ but a Director or Head in some hospital of importance.

JOSEPH VINCENT TRACY IF you will gaze intently a moment at this face, I ' m sure you ' ll feel not only the directness of the eyes, but the vitality of the mind behind them. The very life of this poetic, deeply living scholar has been simply โ life. Singularly individual throughout college, we have received glimpses of his nature only through philosophical discussions and dissertations on beauty and life. He is a rare type, not mixed from the common clay; and those who have known him well feel that they have been closer to something that is strangely indescribable, unknown, mysterious.

TURCOTTE JOHN has been one of the quiet lads who always had most of his fun come about by his study of others and his trips to various places vmder the sun โ not all as track manager either โ for his main forte was travelling. And strange to say, he never, as a rule, brought even his pal, Dan Shalloo, with him, for he loved the solitary byways of life. However, John has not been inactive though he has been quiet, for in class functions he has never been conspicuous by his absence, and he has always had a cheery Hello!

VANARIA LITTLE TONY as the name implies, is a product of the Watch City and is truly a little fellow in stature; but as for perseverance and manhood, he is beyond himself. No one ever really knew just how long were the hours that the little fellow spent in mastering his subjects, for Tony, if he has done any one thing thoroughly, has labored unceasingly. Marks are not an infallible criterion of scholastic value. Tony proved the objective truth of this statement, for he ends his college career with a climaxing Senior year of which any man might be justly proud.

VODOKLYS IN the classroom Mike was a serious and reliable student who successfully hurdled the difficulties of winning a higher education. He has an even- ness of spirit which is truly admirable; a smile for praise and glory as well as a smile in defeat. He came โ he saw โ he conquered โ but unlike that famous general, he achieved not the splendor of worldly powers, but gained the beauty of true friendships. We remember Mike best as the football flash, the elusive, smooth-running halfback who was not stopped all year.

But it will suffice to say that he has been sincere, loyal to his college, and one who did his best to promote her best interests. We cannot forget John as an entertainer nor as one who enjoyed entertainment; he has a high appreciation of the things of life that matter most, was firm in his principles, and frank in the expres- sion of them. His humor is choice, his temperament calm and not excit- able, his conversation intelligent, and hi.s manners always those of a Cath- olic gentleman.

RICHARD T. WALSH โ ' 1 AICK established himself in Freshman as a frank and fearless ques- tioner and we have conceded him that distinction for the last three years also. His naturally inquisitive bent of mind has stood him in good stead because we know that he has reaped well in the harvest of education. When he did not see a thing, he thought of it till he knew he could not solve it himself โ then he ' d ask. The fact that he received high grades without too many questions asked speaks well for his thinking capacity. Success? Already โ because he joins the Science Faculty in the Fall.

But still, we hesi- tate to ask Tom to.change: he has been such a likeable fellow that we fear he would be losing some necessary note if he were to change.

For the four years that we have known him, there hasn ' t been a single artist of the opera or concert platform who has appeared in Boston or near it and escaped the eye of this astute connoisseur. This musical temperament is combined with a versatility in English litera- ture, an enlightening view of world history, and a love of poetry, couched in a disposition at once straightforward and sympathetic, strong but sensitive, and ultimately directed by one thing โ an active and conscientious percep- tion of Beauty.

Having survived those insurmountable obstacles called tests and having carried off honors in the classics, Joe is still continu- ing to attain intellectual achievement.

But we have seen that Ed is possessed of those strong characters of firmness and dependability.

We look upon tho ichanged h} ' . digression! ntial development of character. Insofar as the science of history i mankind ' s existence, it bears a strong impress on this development. Accordingly we Seniors, Father Murphy, record for the interested eye, our appreciation of the humanizing influence that you by your own character have exerted over us. Most of us have attended your lectures at one time or another. Intellectuall.v the.v have gratified the zeal of the most scholarly among us. They were most original in their point of view and learned in the substantiation of your beliefs. You presented your matter to us with no prejudice aforethought and with an abundance of historical evidence. If your subject sometime led into digressions they were substantial and interesting ones. There were few not drawn out b.v your series of lectures o ,vour digression on the principles of one Doctor Cooper; but y( our world was silenced with expedienc.v, bound to you the m as most important subsidiaries of your course on the Origins i.

You were one of the few. Father, whose norm of judging men was soundness of character rather than the inferior norm of marks, activity leadership, or textual brilliance. You drew out the reticent and the exalted vou levelled with a humor which rankled in none. Among us all you left a sincere spirit of Christian fellowship and a recognition of how closely you approached the pattern of your Founder. And so. Father, because .vou gave to us a better understanding of our part in the purposes of existence and a more prudent balance in our life with men; and because we found in you real greatness of mind and heart, you will remain with us always, something lastingly vital.

Glynn Fhasek Editor-in-Chief John E. Reilly Business Manager ' HEN such a compre- hensive and difficult work as the Year Book is undertaken, it goes with- out saying that there is a real need for real co-opera- tion. Without it, the book suffers and accordingly the class is looked upon as one which could not live up to the standards set by other classes which preceded. But enough of generalities. To get out Sub Turri โ 1932, there was especial need of strenuous work in the photography department. That it was met ably, and ably carried out, these pages pay glowing tribute. Mr. Edward B. Cass and his committee have executed their duties nobly and ' 32 will always appreciate it, not to mention the Editor ' s hearty gratitude. In the way of ])ersonality and activity write-ups, we extend kindest appreciation to Mr. F. Alvin Ricci and his Associate Editor, Mr. William J. Egan. They covered the class exceptionally well because they had a large staff on whose work they labored and polished, using the original ideas of close friends of the one written of, but ]Hitting them in perhaps more presentable and finished form. The Editor wishes to thank the heads of extra-curricula activities for their kindness and collabora- tive spirit in submitting details and important facts about their respective clubs and societies. To the faculty, we are deeply indebted for the time they gave us for photography, and for their helpful suggestions along lines of improvement. Now such a book as this has, above all things, to command a goodly sized portion of the ever-necessary filthy lucre. The Business Manager takes this oc- casion to thank the men who worked with him, particidarly Mr. Charles E. Frazier, the Advertising Manager, and Mr. James E. Spellman. The year was a hard one. The Depression told on every business concern in the country, and consequently the advertising fell off, but the unlimited zeal and class loyalty of the business staff enabled Sub Turri to pull through with the results you see about you. To Mr. George W. Shine, who ran the Holy Cross Dance, Mr. Francis L. Sullivan, Chairman of the Student Philomatheia Ball, and Mr. Joseph F. Rogers and Mr. William J. Egan, Co-chairmen of the Holy Cross Smoker, we express especial gratitude for their splendid feats in the successful administration of those affairs. To the Staff ' of Sub Turri in general, the Editor and Business Manager wish merely to say this: we have worked together and known the joys and sorrows of Sub Turri, so let that be the sed finis sit. . ย ' ' .

Always of a high literary calibre, it was es- pecially so this year due to the fine sequence of articles on Medieval times. Paul Kiley ' s article on The Art of the Cathedrals was one of his best contributions. Not on that trend, but of especial value aloii Hterary lines from a point of view of drama and its history, was his article on The Abbey Theatre. Frederic Kiley ' s Chaucer was, with the exception of Paul Claudel, which he wrote in Junior, Fred ' s best work. C. Glynn Fraser ' s two Chaucerian sonnets went especially well with the Editor ' s medieval atmosphere with which he clothed the magazine and were also very apt as they appeared simultaneously with Fred ' s article on the first English poet, or Father of English poetry. Both Fraser ' s sonnets were published later by America, the Catholic weekly. Peter C. Quinn wrote a fine article on the Medieval Guilds , bringing into it some fine penetration into modern business and politics, a field in which Peter always holds more than his own. The two essays on Father Gallagher ( As We See Him ) and Father James H. Dolan, S.J., by Joseph F. Rogers and C. Glynn Eraser, gave some good biography to the monthly publication. Roger ' s article was especially good, deal- ing as it did so well with modern Russia. Edward D. Burns continued giving the students some excellent sonnets. In Junior, Ed won the Jesuit honorary certificate for the best poetry submitted to the Literary Association of Jesuit Colleges. The first prize was his A Sequence of Sonnets. James T. Cotter, after writing his splendid short story, Foxes in the Ground, turned to free verse and proved quite a master of it. On the whole, the Stylus has been a source of real pleasure to those few in every college which appreciate sincere attempts at real literature, which in many instances produces what is striven for. There is often a great deal more pleasure in the appreciation of what a person is trying to do than in the result of a successful attempt. The Stybis this past year has given us both. . h SOB mmm i -.- 0n ilebiaebaligm [Editor ' s Note: The following Editorial wliicli appeared in the first issue of the Sltjlus begin- ning the 1931-1932 school year is an especially apt one inasmuch as the theme and art of the present Siih Turri is also mediaeval; but it is presented especially to give the plan of work which was so successfully carried out by Mr. Paul Kiley and his Staff of the college monthly publication.] ' T HE analytic tendency of our age can be contrasted with tiie quality of syn- - - thesis which characterized the mediaeval period. We are given over to the complete stratification of every branch of learning so that the numerous tribu- taries almost require the services of a genealogical expert for their nominal as- semblage, while the knowledge of them as a unit is rarely found in one mind. The mediaevals, on the other hand, took things apart but always with a synthetic eye. The architect of a cathedral was the builder and mason; he planned the parts with the whole in mind. In philosophy he had his counterpart in Aquinas; and in literature in Dante. But what is most important, these minds secured a syn- thesis which is the root of all the attraction which men of letters are beginning to find in them after four centuries of abuse and ridicule; it is the synthesis of laugh- ter and learning. This commingling of laughter and learning made the mediaeval the most for- tunate of men. Without it he might have fallen as the sneering pseudo-asethete of the Renaissance fell. Instead of accepting what was of value in the learning of Greece and Rome he might have cast it aside in its entirety as the intellectual charlatan rejected mediaeval knowledge; he might have set the individual man on a pedestal and built a thousand unsound philosophies about him ; finally he might have plunged into the hopeless and gloomy misery of his chronological successor. We of today are beginning to shy away from the error of the Renaissance, We are discovering and accepting the truth of the Middle Ages together with what was worthwhile in the Renaissance. We know that that age of laughter and learning was not-perfect, but, as ours is less so, there are things of that period which it will be to our advantage to cultivate and to take every bit of sustenance they offer. The study of the Angelic Doctor will benefit the philosopher; the artist can draw unendingly upon the art of the cathedral and the allied arts; modern industry can gain by at least a partial pursuit of the ideals of the guilds; and the Church itself can remove the blight of sentimentalism which has fallen upon its music and its hymns by a thorough searching of those unsurpassable products of mediaeval saints. The essays which the Stylus offers this year are intended to whet the appetite for the feast of laughter and learning which awaits him who cares to eat and drink of words more numerous, more weighty, and more accomplished than ours. If he but partake, he will enjoy. . iย V.

' ' ' J) SOB GORBI i eig;f)t ยฃi rogregs; DURING the regime of the Managing Board which was composed of members of the Class of 1932, The Heights arose to a position in Collegiate journalism which has been attested far and wide by critics of discernment and authority. Tlie size, type, style, quality, and financial status of the paper improved under the capable and efficient direction of our own classmates. The first major change was in the setup of the weekly editions. A new Century style was adopted, giving place to the Gothic display which The Heights had featured since its inception. This departure provided for greater space for actual news, and allowed greater detail in the headings for the stories. A few weeks after the Board was in control. The Heights presented a new heading, which was executed by its Art Editor, Joseph Connor. Further changes made by Dan Cotter, the Editor, included a new policy of vising pictures with every important story. Up to this time. The Heights was accustomed to using two cuts in each issue. The new policy sometimes presented as many as a dozen engravings in a single edition. This feature made a newsier and more readable publication. In the Editorial Department, under the super- vision of C. Glynn Eraser, a marked improvement was noted. The tone of the paper was made more mature and advanced, presenting discussions on varied topics steadily throughout the year. On many occasions, editorials from The Heights were reprinted and recognized by Boston newspapers and allied collegiate journals. The value of this advance must not be underestimated, since the very essence of the paper lies in its weekly expressions on the editorial page. The closing edition of the 1931 school year was a gala issue, which was dedi- cated to His Eminence, William Cardinal O ' Connell, Archbishop of Boston, whose Golden Anniversary of Graduation from Boston College was observed at this time. This number of llie Heights was quite unusual, inasmuch as it comprised a miniature year-book, presenting the accomplishment of each of the school activi- ties. This was, to that time, the largest edition of The Heights ever printed. It contained twelve pages. This particular issue was given great assistance and stimulus by its Co-Editor, Thomas J. Crane, who resigned at the end of the year when he was elected to the Presidency of the leading school activity, the Student Activities Council. An interesting fact in connection with this issue is that it paid for itself, despite the fact that its size and engraving costs sent the bill away beyond expect- ed figures. Which naturally leads us to a brief discussion concerning the Business De])artment of the paper. Charles E. Frazier and John E. Reilly secured the business, and Thomas H. Lynch, Jr., collected the bills. It is a tribute to these men that in a year noted for its financial ebb and slack business conditions every- where that The Heights, which spent more money than ever before, showed a sub- stantial surplus at the end of the fiscal year. And it is especially remarkable when we reflect that The Heights made money for the first time in several years, and, in addition, that it was the only school activity, athletics included, which did not show a loss at the close of its activities. SOB 6aRRI In the Sporting Department, Edward F. Hurley, Sport.s Editor, produced one of the finest athletic sections ever run at the Heights. The style of presentation this year was a finished one โ there was no slapstick and slangy news write-ups regarding any phase of athletics. If it was to be humorous, it was written so as to be โ not look โ humorous. There was literary style in this important depart- ment as there should have been in past years. The banner issue of the year was the sixteen page Thanksgiving Number, which has been designated as the largest regular issue of a college newspaper ever printed, here or abroad. In this edition was a four page rotogravure section, presenting photographs of the college, and the players in the football classic of the season โ the Boston College-Holy (toss game. Such has been the accomplishments of the men of our class. They have pre- sented a weekly, excellent in technique, outstanding in value of content, and am- bitious in size. If you care for statistics, we submit that under their direction you have been given twenty-six more pages of The Heights than any other class has received. And we also add that you have been treated, for the first time in the history of the college paper, to a steady diet of humor, gossip, and light features, provided by Dan Cotter, Eddie Hurley, and Dick Holland. And you have been โ fortunate fellows โ allowed the benefits of the crafty pens of such excellent artists and artisans as Joe Connor, Tom Walsh, Vin Burke, Connie Dalton, Francis Maguire, Frank Rice, and Glynn Eraser. The Sub Turri, as the official organ of the Boston College Graduation Class, wishes to extend its congratulations to the Managing Board for the work they have accomplished, and also its sincere appreciation of the many favors extended by these same men to the Sub Turri. During the year it has been a happy and profitable companionship, which has bestowed mutual advantages to both pub- lications. We regret to see such a pleasant association come to an end, but we are solaced by the thought that the spirit which motivated it will always remain, as do the many copies of The Heights, as a refreshing and satisfying souvenir.

From this great Italian Cardinal, who was called from his Jesuit class-room labors to the arduous duties of Arch- bishop and Cardinal, the Bellarmine Society has taken its name and inspira- tion. His monumental labors in explaining and defending the fundamental truths of all justice and religion challenged both the friendly and the hostile admiration of his own day and left a definite impression on the pages of law, government and religion. The Bellarmine Society seeks to develop laymen who can imitate Saint Robert ' s powerful example, laymen who can explain and defend, better than their educated opponents can attack, the fundamental truths of Christianity on which is built the structure of our modern civilization. It seeks to attain this end by means of a scientific training in the fundamental truths of Christianity. Propositions scientifically establishing some fundamental point, as, for example, the Divinity of Christ, are mastered and then defended before the weekly Academy. Chosen men are given special instruction in the art of expressing in dialogue form the ideas con- tained in these propositions, and their work is published. Then those who are more adept in exposition and defense are formed into lecture teams to present the dialogue before Catholic organizations in the Boston Archdiocese. The high point of the Society ' s program was the presentation in the Library Auditoriumof twenty-six theses establishing the Divinity of Christ. It was an oppor- tunity for the Bellarmine Society to show, in 1931, the fiftieth anniversary of his graduation from Boston College, a mark of reverent respect and afl: ' ection for our beloved Archbishop and fellow alumnus, William Cardinal O ' Connell. Suc- cessful presentations were given before K. of C. Councils, Holy Name Societies and other Catholic organizations. The published booklet upon which the text of the exhibition was based, was the product of eight members of the Academy who worked on the subject during the summer vacation. The four sections were then candidly criticized by the membership and the moderator and finally com- piled for diocesan censorship by Messrs. O ' Brien and Donovan, ' 33. Sufficient credit for whatever success the Bellarmine Society enjoyed cannot be given to Rev. Russell M. Sullivan, S.J., who organized the academy and whose enthusiasm and kindness permeated and animated the work of the group. To him as to Alma Mater rebounds much of the glory of the Society, that has for its object the noblest of all effort โ to further the Kingdom of God on earth. w l)cp rcliebeb ttjis iWental train of liriting anb atibing Commentaries fap taking care of ttc ILanti anb ropertp, eber gtribing for mens Sana in ยฃor= pore siano. tfjleticg ) SOB eORKI c Regan, McLaughlin, Curley, McCrehan, Tobin, Garrity, Scanlon, McKenney (irabuate poarb of tfjlcticsi BOSTON COLLEGE ATHLETIC COUNCIL John P.

This decision on the part of our Rector, the Very Reverend Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., marks an advance in the athletic development of Boston College. Part of Father Gallagher ' s letter to the Alumni follows: Dear Alumnus: John P. Cuhley, ' 13 For some years past it has been the expressed wish of Graduate Manager of q jj, college alumni that Boston College sport contests be conducted on the college campus. I am most heartily in favor of their idea and quite anxious to work with the Alumni Association to bring their plan to a successful completion. After consultation with and advisement from the alumni Executive Board and the officials of the Athletic Association, we have decided, as recently announced in the press, to carry out this cherished desire of the alumni by erecting steel grandstands on the campus, sufficient to accommo- date the attendance at all our college games. The advantages of playing college games at the College I shall leave to your own consideration. In the undertaking to realize this forward project I am asking your co-operation and financial assist- ance. I am fully aware of the prevalent economic conditions and have not launched this endeavor without mature calculation of the means to carry it to a successful issue. In this, however, as in every step toward the growth and development of Boston College, we look to the assistance of the alumni as essential to advance- ment. I am confident that the alumni have the interests of Alma Mater at heart. Their generosity has already run into sacrifice and so I am looking forward with assurance to their whole-hearted support in this, my first eft ' ort toward develop- ment. Yours very sincerely, L. J.

' S5 Jfootball SOB SORRT oob lutfe, ' 32 ' T HE college football team is the source whence arises that - - indescribable immateriality commonly alluded to as college spirit. One who has never played football will never truly feel the essence of that quality, for it is only when the strain of muscle is balanced by the tension of the brain, when elects are lilunged deep to meet the enemy and hold, or go after him and conquer, that it is truly, deeply felt. Today is the age of speed and brain on the chalk-line field, and ])rawn is but an accidental asset. All three combined are the ideal; but because brain is first, the modern student who plays football is a better man, for it is on the gridiron that is reached I lie goal of physical perfection: mens sana in corpore sano. When both are fully developed, there you have the finest type of man- hood, the college man who is both scholar and athlete. โ The men who have this past season finished their gridiron careers โ Joe Kelly, one of the finest football leaders in Maroon and Gold history; Harry Downes, who will be forever remembered as one of the greatest pivot men ever to don a uniform at the Heights, and all the others โ possessed an abundance of qualities which will make them better citizens and finer men: intelligence, physical perfection, and above all โ guts! I just want to say to the football players of ' 32, simply and sincerely: Good luck! Loyalty was their watchword; college spirit their very life. Their love of Alma Mater will never leave them and the thought and action it has inspired will surely aid them in reaching ever greater heights and โ goals! Very sincerely.

C. eleven. The result of the coaches ' labor was โ Coach McKenney says โ a team with the finest football and fellow-player spirit I have ever experienced as a player or in the few years I have coached. Going through a season of ten football games with no training table and the most economic of managements in material, a team has to have something more than just a liking for the game in order to be able to fight through a football schedule winning the majority of its games and losing only by the narrowest of margins. For the hardships and obstacles which the 1931 football squad had to overcome, the eleven had a splendid career. THE STARTING LINE-UP OF THE SEASON Back Row, Left to Right: Capt. Joe Kelly, Johnny Freitas, Joe Ryder and Charley Gallery Front Row: Ed Gallagher, Pliil Couhig, Gec rge Taylor, Harry Downes, Dan Larkin, Bill Bennett and Louis Musco SOB mm , ' ' %. FRESHMAN 1928, was a glorious year in Boston College football. That was the year that the kid, Mc- Kenney, took over the reins as chief gridiron mentor at the Heights and marched his Eagle football brigade through an un- defeated season right on to an Eastern championship. That season, too, saw the second Ma- roon and Gold freshman eleven under Bill Kellehers direction take the field with a record to preserve. The 1927 frosh team, the first under the banner of the Eagle, went through an undefeated season, and the men of 32 had that reputation to uphold. When Joe Kelly booted the pigskin away in the opening game of the season against the Lynn General Electric eleven, the Eaglet line-up included the famous football warriors that have made the class of ' 32 one of the greatest, as far as representation on ihe gridiron goes, that ever matricu- lated here at the Heights. There was the rangy tackle. Bill Bennett, the burly and handsome Harry Downes, straddling the ball; the champ of all lovers, Emil Romanowski, at the other tackle; Ed Gallagher, the boy who considered his . dam ' s apple, at one end; and Hi Nicholson sweeping down the field from the other extremity. Matt O ' Malley was picking them up and laying them down at one guard position and Dan Larkin was doing the same and maybe more at the other sentry post. Then in the fast-stepping backfield we find that wild man of the gridiron, a real fighting Irishman and a mighty fine football player, Joe Kelly, who was teamed with a disrespected citizen of Framingham, Pete, (call me Ike), Davis, and Charlie Callery, the whispering sage of Canton. Vinny Cronin of recent memory and Walter Kelley were the quarterbacks of that outfit who showed some keen generalship and shone with varsity class. The schedule for the team was very abbreviated, calling for only five games. In the opener Downes, Center FUM T S ' SHยฃ W SOB SHRRI . โ ' . with Lynn (played at night un- der the floodlights) the Eaglets soared to an aerial victory, ' i. ' i toO. Pete Davis was the phantom of the gridiron that evening, romping hither and thither through the Lynn frontier and pushing the ball over for two of the frosh scores. Then the Eaglets declared war fj.- ' tw on the Newport Naval Academy f wHl eleven, which team promptly ac- cepted the challenge and invited the Heightsmen down to little Rhody for a skirmish. The middies trained all their guns on the yearlings, so ' tis said, and the Kelleher craft wa.s sunk under a 13 to defeat. St. Anselm ' s was taken in stride, but the rambling wreck from St. John ' s Prep went on a rampage against the Maroon and Gold plebes and tacked on the second licking of the season. The .second annual set-to with Cross yearlings saw one of the Scotchicst games of the .season in this or any other land. The Purple rabbit-foot holders managed to eke out the victory by the narrowest margin in football, the point after touchdown. Joe Kelly was a demon tackier and also our sole scorer in that game. The game ended 7 to 6 in favor of the Purple cubs. Davis, Back Caller Back SOPHOMORE Continuing the undefeated streak set up by the championship 1928 eleven, the Eagles, with McKenney at the wheel, opened their season with a 13 to 6 win over a surprisingly good Catholic V. eleven. Ches.sy Antos, the Salem will-o-the-wisp, scampered off with two touchdowns for the McKenneymen, while Dixon and Marr plowed through the Baltimore team at random, Johnny of Norwood, breaking up plays, and Johnny of Dorchester, breaking the backs of the C. U. men with his powerful smashes. SOB CaRKI . ' . Di Venuti, End The University of Maine was next and what a pasting they took from our gang. The final score was 4 ' -2 to 0. That was the game that gave Joe Kelly his chance to shirie and he sure came through. Harry Downes as un- derstudy to Swede Anderson at center, came through with a smashing exhibition; and good old Hi Nicholson showed real class when he was sent into re- place Dixon at the end position. The Blue and White clad jugger- naught from Villanova was the guest the following week and after outclassing the Eagles throughout, had to tramp back to Philadelphia with a tie decision. A last minute pass from Colbert to Antos enabled the Heights- men to even it up at 7 all. The first trip brought the squad to Dayton, Ohio, and also to another victory. The Maroon and Gold varsity, with Dixon, Creedon, and Antos in the leading roles, brought down the Dayton Fliers, with an aerial barrage, winning 23 to 7. A very weak Canisius team was smeared all over the Fenway when the boys from the Heights trampled them into the dirt by a 40 to 6 score. Joe Kelly scored his first varsity touchdown in that affair. The battle with the Blue Devils from Duke Iniversity, South Carolina, was one of the finest of the season. It was the third meeting between the teams and the Eagles had to fight to come through with a 20 to 12 win. Colbert ' s passing was a feature. Kelly again was everywhere, while Henry Buckley and Mike Vodoklys, both of ' 32, looked like real stars. The great Cavanaugh-coached Fordham demolisher smashed our 17 game winning-streak when a fiat pass over the center of the line went for a touchdown. We lost because we didn ' t kick the goal after the score, the New Yorkers did and they w ' on, 7 to 6. That was tough, but that ' s football. The long jaunt out to Milwaukee took too much out of the McKenneymen and the Golden Avalanche of Marquette, via Sisk, scored a 20 to 6 win. The annual B. U. affair was a romp for the Eagles, the final tally being 33 to in favor of the aerie from the Heights. Captain Joe skirts Fordham end for a twelve-yard gain in 1932 season _oiย rr. W SOB GORKI C . ' ' . The annual Holy Cross classic found two members of our own class at the starting posts. Joe Kelly was in there at fullback and Harry Downes at center when the whistle sent the ball spinning on its way. Pre-game dope made Holy Cross the favorite, but the gang wearing the Maroon and Gold went right out from the opening gun and pushed the Purple warriors off the map. The final score was 13 to with the Eagle soar- ing on high. Captain Creedon scored the first tally after the recovery of a fumbled Holy Cro.s; Rotaanowski, tackle Cahill, guard unt, and te, Mike Vodoklys, intercepted a Cross pass and skipped 40 yards for the other our own marker. JUNIOR Hampered throughout the season with injuries and with an overdose of bad breaks to contend with, the Maroon and Gold devastator, which before the season opened, looked like a potential championship outfit, went through only a fair year, winning five games and losing a like total. The opener against Catholic University found Joe Kelly at the full-back post, Harry Downes at center, Emil Romanowski and Bill Bennett at the tackles, Henry Buckley at one end, and Mike Vodoklys at one of the half-back positions. The Eagles clawed their way to a 54 to 7 win and showed oodles of power doing it. The Quantico Marine military affair was played as part of the program of the .American Legion convention week and resulted in quite a football game, the Heightsmen fighting hard for a 1 2 to 7 victory. Mike Vodoklys of ' 32 threw a pass to Antos for the first score, while Ed Gallagher went over for the other tally after a nifty pass from Walter Kelley, ' 32. The great undefeated giant eleven from the Bronx, none other than Cav ' s Fordham steamroller, was next. Heavy favorites to smear the Eagles, the game was nearly a B. C. victory.

The Maroon and Gold line was marvelous that matinee, pushing the huge Xew York linemen back and way back all afternoon. Those who made the trip to Villanova for the Eagle-Wildcat frolic were knocked out of their seats when Harry Stuldreher ' s men tore the Eagles from on high and sent them winging back to Boston with a 7 to defeat against them. Joe Kelly and Henry Buckley fought their heads off in that game but their mates were unable to help these fighting Irishmen. Dayton University, from Ohio, were the guests of Boston College the following week, and the Eagles smeared the Fliers by the tally of 1.5 to 6. The Golden Avalanche from Marquette Uni- versity found the Maroon and Gold squad shot to pieces with injuries, and the Milwaukee outfit triumphed for the second consecutive win, 6 to 0. Again two dropkicks were the winning bit of margin for the Murraymen. Joe Kelly blossomed out as a fine running back in that game and MikeVodoklys was a veritable ghost of the gridiron, making some of the finest runs of the entire season. Bill Bennett was a Rock of Gibraltar at his tackle post. The Georgetown game was the best of the entire season, the Hilltoppers just managing to sneak through with a 20 to 19 victory. Once again the forward wall of the McKenney product drew great praise by the splendid exhibition of defensive football. The sole trip of the year carried the Heights aerie to Chicago where they soared a night victory over Loyola University, 19 to 0. It was the first night game ever played by a Maroon and Gold varsity eleven. The defensive work of Dovvnes and Bennett in this clash was outstanding. The Pioneers of Boston University gave the Eagles a fine workout for the big battle with the Cross. The final score was 47 to 7 in favor of B. ( ' . An injury in the Loyola affair kept Henry Vs.

A blocked punt in the sec- ond period gave the Cross a touchdown and that proved to be the margin of victory for the Crusaders. It was the first Holy Cross win in six years and it was only tlie break of the game that enabled the Purple to eke out their slim victory, 7 to 0. Al Tosi, a sophomore end, was the shining light of the Eagle brigade that afternoon, while Harry wnes of our own class played heads-up football and along with Joe Kelly, furnished the men of the few chances they had to give vent to their enthusiasm. At the meeting of the lettermen of squad, Joe Kelly was elected captain for the 1931 season.

The 1931 football season was on. The annual opening skirmish with Catho- lic L ' niversity turned out to be an honest-to-goodness war, and the Bergman coached product from Washington, D. C, gave the Eagles a real scare, especially in the first half. Showing a very tricky offense, the boys from C. U. took the opening kickoff down the field and in about five plays, scored an easy touchdown and kicked the goal to take the lead, 7 to 0. Captain Joe Kelly smashed over the line in the second period, scoring the first B. C. touchdown of the season. The Eagles clicked nicely in the second half and rolled up three scores to clinch the decision.

BOSTON COLLEGE IS DAYTON A smoother working outfit than that which opened against V. v. held the Dayton Fliers scoreless in the second clash of the season. The far-famed Notre Dame attack of the Ohio eleven was stopped dead by a Maroon and Gold aggregation that was on its toes throughout the contest and had the game well in hand from whistle to shot. The Eagles played well under wraps, using only straight off- id in with a few passes. Pete Chesnulevitch and Captain Joe Kelly were for the Heightsmen. Freddy Meier, of our own class, made for the a pass. Joe Kelly was romping hither and yon until he was hurt in BOSTON COLLEGE 0โ FORDHAM 20 A real Cavanaugh football eleven made it three in a row for Fordham on Columbus Day when the mighty Maroon juggernaut rolled over the fighting Eagles to the tune of 20 to 0. Led by her inspiring All-American captain and halfback, Jim Murphy, the Fordham team, playing hard, re- lentless football, smashed the Eagle line for substantial gains, scoring her three touchdowns on smashing drives down the field. Joe Kelly, Harry Downes, and Bill Bennett played their hearts out in a futile effort to stem the mighty enemy ' s wave, and the battle that these boys put up against overwhelming odds thrilled the hearts of every son of Boston College. Captain Joe Kelly ' s rib- cracking tackles and his offensive thrusts through the Ram frontier were the big features of the contest. Little Pete Chesnulevitch continued to shine and even the huge Fordham line could not stop the Nashua express whose 40-yard gallop in the last period was the finest bit of ball-carrying of the game. 13.

Long, brilliant runs and sparkling defensive play on the part of both lines featured the annual clash be- tween the Wildcat and the Ma- roon and Gold standard bearer. The Heightsmen in the first half looked very good and with a fine offensive display, they were pushing the Mainliners all over the field. Villanova took advantage of a few breaks in the last half and converted them into scores. An 85-yard gallop by Harry Downes, after the intercep- tion of a Wildcat pass, gave B. C. its only score of the day. Captain Joe Kelly again was an out- standing figure even though the Eagle had to accept another defeat. BOSTON COLLEGE 0โ MARQUETTE 7 The Golden Avalanche of Marquette LTniversity swept across the Fenway Park gridiron and dusted off the Eagles for the third successive season by the tally of 7 to 0. After three periods of scoreless scrimmaging, the Murray-coached product from Minneapolis pushed across the winning score in the closing minutes of the final quarter after the exhausted Heightsmen were unable to withstand the battering of Johnny. Sisk, Ronzani, and Elliot, heavy and powerful Marquette backs. The Eagles waged a splendid battle against the experienced and more formidable Western- ers and did well to hold them in check as long as they did. Marquette, ranked as one of the might- iest elevens in the Middle West, was stopped dead in the first three sessions and it was only through a break that they were able to score at all. The play of Harry Downes in this contest was out- standing and Erank Murray, the Avalanche director, called him as fine a center as I have seen in football. BOSTON COLLEGE 20โ GEORGETOWN The Hilltoppers of George- town I niversity, coming up from Washington heavy favorites over the youthful Eagles, were hand- ed one of their worst shellackings of the season when Joe McKen- ney ' s proteges rose in their mightiest might and outfought and outplayed them for a great 20 to 2 victory. The scintillat- ing play of Harry Downes, bril- liant as it was throughout the season, was even more outstand- ing in this contest. The Ma- roon and Gold centre was perfect in every department of roving-center play and showed enough class to rank beside the great Jack Heaphy, called the finest pivot man in the history of B. C. football. The Hoyas were the first to tally in the contest when they smeared Walter Kelley behind the line for a safety. That ended their .scoring for the day, however. Pete Chesnulevich started going places for Boston in the .sec- ond chukker and pushed over for the first Eagle blood. Two more in the second half, one by Chessy and another by Freitas, completed the destruction. Colbert, quarterback Vodoklys, halfback BOSTON COLLEGE 19โ WESTERN MARYLAND 13 The Green Terrors of Western Maryland held no terror for the Eagles when they journeyed down to Baltimore to take on the southerners in the big Municipal Stadium. Joe Kelly led his team to a brilliant 19 to 13 victory over a powerful foe that day. The Terrors, coached by the clever Dick Harlow, showed a classy forward passing attack that had the Eagles at sea, but the Maryland crowd could not cope with the sweeping offense that B. C. was using. The half ended with the score at thirteen all, and it wasn ' t until the final quarter that the Maroon and Gold made victory certain with the third and final score by Johnny Freitas. A loyal group of rooters made the trip with the squad and gave the eleven quite a reception throughout the entire contest. %i ย jยฃ3 ' ' ' Ilk TlnlNH frill Ulicn fclity , .

Tired and wearied from the long trip to Baltimore on the previous Saturday and the game with Western Maryland, the Maroon and Gold product had to play inspired football to over- come the doughty little band of warriors from the South. A blocked punt in the fourth quarter, accomplished by a substitute tackle, Ike Ezmunt, rolled across the Centre goal line and was recovered by Joe Killilea for a B. C. score.

BOSTON COLLEGE 6 HOLY CROSS 7 Inspired by the leadership ot her fighting captain, Joe Kelh an under-rated Maroon and Gold eleven swept the Crusader off his lofty perch in the first half only to watch its six point lead go by the boards in the last few minutes of play when Captain Phil OConnell gave his team victory, 7 to 0, by scampering 20 yards for a score, Leslie Griffin kicking the point. The powerful and thrilling play of the entire Eagle eleven was the feature of the annual clash with our Worcester rivals. That powerful Maroon and Gold frontier was rising with a might.y charge on the offense and pushing its Purple foe back and back. Its .slashing play from a defensive standpoint had the great Holy Cro.ss line stopped in its tracks, and the ace backs of the Purple, OConnell, Rovinski, and Griffin, were bottled up completely during the entire battle. It was only after Captain Joe Kelly of the Eagles had been carried off the field unconscious, that the Crusader leader took advantage of the weakened Maroon and Gold defense and was able to break away for his only dash of the day as well as for the winning score. Harry Downes shone as the brightest defensive star on the field, and the giant pivot man showed the same type of seasonal play that entitled him to All-. inerican honors. Eddie Gallagher, Johnny DeVenuti, Bill Bennett, and Emil Romanowski were some of ' Si who finished their gridiron careers with Ijrilliant performances. %-, Crusader Captain O ' Coiinell scores for 7-1) win - SaB5aRRT JUST CHEATED OF VICTORY BY THE CRUSADERS Back-!; [Ijjl In IxKjId): Johnny Dougan, Johnnj ' Freitas, Frank Malonej-, Capt.

The passing up of the trip of course means only one thing โ a longer season in-doors and in consequence a shorter and less desirable prepara- tory training. But as for the coming season itself, every thing looks highly favorable. We ' ll miss those who have graduated, especially Pete Herman, but we have fk| Meier and Mclntyre behind the plate, and Roy, โ Gallagher, Downes, Fraser, and Barney Curtin for the hurling department. With Chesnulevitch and Captain Spognardi in the infield. Shea, Lane, Ricci, and Gallery for outfield berths, and all a bunch of great sluggers, everything augurs for a successful season on the diamond. As can be seen by the names above, all the baseball team of the 1932 season depends upon is โ the Glass of ' 32!

But only the good ones were on deck a few weeks after the first call, and the boys began to send them smoking down the alley. Some of the finest schoolboy ball players in this section reported to McCrehan, then acting as yearling coach for the second season, including many former captains and All choices. About seven games were played, the Eaglets coming through on top five times. Victories, and well deserved ones too, came over the capable B. U. fresh- man outfit, 10 to 1; B. C. High, 9 to 3; B. U. Frosh, 7 to 5; Wentworth, 4 to 3; and St. John ' s Prep, 3 to 1. The Holy Cross cubs and Exeter managed to eke out mighty lucky wins over the Maroon and Gold yearlings. The twirling staff ' of that nine was one of the finest, if not the best box array, that any freshman class has boasted here at University Heights. Barney Curtin, former St. Anselm ' s star, and Ed Gallagher, the all-scholastic choice from Brigh- ton High, were the southpaw artists of the 1928 yearling outfit who turned in some mighty fine performances.

Harry Uownes in those days was a catcher and a corker too. Along with Fred Meier and Hi Nichol- son, huge and handsome Harry took care of the receiving end of the Eaglet battery. The infielders included Billy Noonan of Everett High and Danny Quinn at shortstop, Walter Kelley was at second, -Johnny McCarthy, now of the law school, showed his class at the initial sack, and Niedziocha was at the hot corner. SOPHOMORE Harry Downes was at first base, Johnny McCarthy at third, and Walter Kelley at short when the 1930 varsity nine, directed by Hughey Duffy, entrained for the sunny south on its annual spring southern trip.

The boys embarked for the South immediately after the Fordham game, played as a feature of Fathers ' Day at the college. Jack Coffee ' s boys tacked it on to the Eagles by the count of 7 to 2 in this little scrap. Down below the Mason and Dixon line, the gang took on a new lease of life and came through with three wins in five games. The skirmish with the Quantico Marines had a Maroon and Gold tinge, the Duffymen being victorious, 6 to 2. Victories followed over Catholic University, 10 to 3; and Villanova, 17 to 9. The infield can be blamed for the loss of both the William and Mary and Georgetown clashes. The boys booted the apple all over the lot losing, 2 to 1 and 7 to 6, respectively. Back home on their own diamond, the Eagles collected three scalps: Syra- cuse, B. U., and Villanova before battling B. U. to a 4 to 4 tie at Riverside. Providence came and conquered in one of the best games of the season. The Friars prayed their way to a 3 to 2 win in a corking good game that saw the Boston contingent almost tie it up in a stirring ninth inning rally. Jim Donovan twirled the gang to a victory over Manhattan College, 4 to 1, and the classy Fordham Ram took the Eagle for a ride, the second of the year, at New York, winning 6 to 3. The opening Memorial Day clash of the Holy Cross series saw one of the closest battles of the season, the Barrymen coming from behind to win out 5 to 4 at Fitton Field, Worcester. The trip to Providence brought revenge to the Eagles as they smashed out an 8 to 3 win over the crack Friar team. Pete Her- man was standing the boys from little Rhody on their ears all afternoon. The war between the huge Jumbo from Tufts College and the Eagle was de- cided easily in favor of the Maroon and Gold standard bearer, 7 to 3. The second game of the Cross series really ended the proceedings for the year with the Wor- cesterites, inasmuch as the Purple had already won the opening clash. The Eagles booted the ball and kicked away the game in a real comedy of errors and the Crusaders won 17 to 12. The final game was played as a feature of the Commencement exercises at the Cross, and it was Long John Dixon who turned in a classy three hit performance and upset the Crusaders, 5 to 3. JUNIOR The announcement that Francis McCrehan ' 25 was chosen varsity baseball coach, succeeding Hughey Duffy, started baseball off with a bang at the college in our junior year. The appointment of the popular freshman mentor came as a pleasant expectation to the followers of the Maroon and Gold diamond forces and marked the inauguration of a graduate coach of baseball at Boston College. ' ' % t fi SOB mmm i . . Vodoklys, r.f. Meier, A wealth of veteran ma- terial was on hand at the Commonwealth Armory when the call for candi- dates went out. McCre- han had a strong nucleus for his pitching staff with Jim Donovan, Pete Her- man, Barney Curtin, Harry Downes, Ed Gallagher, Glynn Fraser and two very promising sophomores, Buddy Roy and Bill Erwin. The infield which remained intact for the entire season had Frank Meehan at first, Chesnulevich at second, Jimmy Crowley at third, and Andy Spognardi of our own class at short. Walter Kelly of ' 32 was the spare โ Temple, Shea, and Regan were again on hand for the outer gardens, with Russ Lane and Charley Callery, both juniors, filling in. George Colbert was aided behind the bat by Freddy Meier of ' 32 and Duke Mclntyre, a sophomore. That was the squad that was chosen for the southern trip, with a few excep- tions. The jaunt to the land of cotton was more or less a pleasure trip, only two games being played, the Eagles winning one and losing one. The two opening skirmishes against Quantico and Georgetown had to be postponed on account of rain. Proceeding to Philadeli)hia, the boys managed to play the scheduled clash with Villanova but the Wildcats were in a bitter mood and clawed the Eagles, 5 to 2. The next day at Princeton the Bostonians took on Harry Hooper ' s Tiger nine and gave it a solid trouncing, 12 to 4. Ed Gallagher, on the mound that after- noon, looked very good. Andy Spognardi, one of our shipmates, returned from the south as the leading batter on the squad. Pete Herman twirled the Heightsmen to their first home victory over Boston University, 3 to 0, limiting the Pioneers to four hits. The annual P ' ordham afl ' air, played as a feature of Fathers ' Day saw the Ram rise in fury and smear the Eagle for a 10 to 6 loss. A home run by Temple in the ninth featured that contest. The Syracuse game was close all the way, the McCrehan coached product just barely nosing out the New Yorkers, 7 to 5. Another victory over a New York nine came with the Boston win over St. Bonaventure by the score of 6 to 3. The return clash with B. U. at Riverside resulted in a routing of the Pioneers by the score of 17 to 4. The Eagles collected nearly 20 hits off Buck Weafer, the Pioneer mound ace. Consecutive wins then followed on the home diamond over Georgetown, 7 to 5: Mt. St. Mary ' s from Baltimore, 7 to 6: and Villanova, 6 to 4. The triumph over the Wildcats evened the series for the year as the Philadelphia college won the first encounter played on the Eagle ' s trip to the south. The second meeting with Providence College brought the Maroon and (iold team to Providence where they dropped one of the best games of the season to the Friars, 7 to 6. Russ Lane started his first varsity game, replacing the injured = ) SOB mmm o ' ' Finnegan, 2b. C irtin, p. Regan in right field. Ford- ham again was a winner at New York, 6 to 2, but the contest with the Spring- fiekl gymnasts was marked on the right side of the ledger, the Heights aerie winning, 12 to 11. Pete Herman pitched a corking game in the first of the Holy Cross series played on Memorial Day at AVorcester, but the fortunate Crusaders pulled out a 4 to 3 win in ten innings. A game with Hosei Uni- versity from Japan was one of the most colorful attractions of the season. The Japs were great fielders, but very weak with the stick and the Eagles won 9 to 1. The second clash with Holy Cross, played at the Heights as a part of the commencement exercises, was Maroon and Gold all the way. Herman stood the Purple batters on their heads and gained a well-deserved 6 to 2 win. Contests with Tufts and Dartmouth, also played as commencement features, resulted in triumphs for the McCrehanmen, 12 to 4, and 2 to respectively. The rubber contest of the Holy Cross series was played at Fitton Field, Worcester. The game was perhaps the finest of the three with the Barrymen managing to eke out another 4 to 3 win in ten innings. Herman pitched his usual fine game, and it was only the breaks that gave the Cross victory.

Leading the pack was Andy Spognardi, captain and class shortstop, who is regarded by those gentlemen of the fourth estate who should know, as the finest short-fielder in Eastern intercollegiate ranks. The genial Cheese McCrehan, after his baptism into the coaching ranks in the spring of 1931, was back at the helm to direct the activities and fortunes of the Maroon and Old Gold for a second season. Lack of veteran outfield material was the biggest problem that the lanky Cantabrigian had to face, but with some prom- ising and fairly experienced talent on hand, he managed to obtain a smooth- working, heavy-hitting trio. The annual southern trip was cancelled, due to the fact that two of the con- tests scheduled during the jaunt down yonder were scratched at the request of the Eagle opponents. This necessitated a late start for the squad, and the subse- quent delay checked the progress of the nine considerably. The seniors on the nine were important. Among the infielders was Captain Spognardi, shortstop, and Walter Kelley and Frank Finnegan who formed the basis for a snappy and experienced inner cordon. Charley Callery, a nice ball-player from Canton High, and Al Ricci of Hyde Park, grabbed off two of the pasture spots in the Eagle outfield, Callery in left and Ricci in right. In center gardens we find Russ Lane, a mean sticker if ever there was one. Getting around to the battery we find Freddy Meier, a veteran of two seasons, with plenty of experience and batting ability. On the mound the veteran south- paws Big Eddie Gallagher with his famous hard one and Barney Curtin, he of the tantalizing sinker, teamed with the right-handers, Harry Downes, of two years varsity experience: Jim Curley, another senior who showed much ability as a slab artist, and demanded plenty of recognition; and Glynn Eraser, five-letter- man from East Boston High, a veteran submarine twirler who strengthened the mound group considerably and saw a good deal of action in his final season of varsity baseball. The policy of McCrehan to give every one of his men an opportunity to show his stuff put oft ' the final cut in the squad until April 16, just three days before the opener with Jack Coffey ' s Big Maroon nine from New York. After the final slice was made, the varsity squad was reduced to 18 men, the rest being dropped to the jayvees, a new idea in Boston College baseball circles, and one which has proved of considerable value in the development of prospective varsity timber. It was inaugurated during the 1932 season and Freddy Moncewicz, former Eagle shortstop and freshman team coach, was chosen to handle the outfit. .0 ' % t SOB mmm c . ' .

Coach Ryder |]e 0lvmpic ClafiS ' HEN the graduates of this year entered Boston College in the autumn of nineteen hundred twenty-eight they beheld track and field athletics at the lowest ebb since the incumbency of this coach. But they have witnessed the ren- aissance grown from the embryo of their class representatives. Captain Brendan Moynahan, even before he was captain, by his irresistible suavity, did much to build up track. He has been throughout a member of the varsity two-mile relay teams and the college ' s best one-mile runner. To the coach he has been a very valuable assistant coach. Dick Holland, he with the forty-four inch chest (requiring the largest sweater of the football players) is and has been the college ' s best hammer thrower; always willing to teach the tyros; always the gentleman. George Shinney and Dan Maguire have high jumped well and assisted others in the trick. Their co-operation has been appreciated. The good right arms of Harry Downes and Al Ricci have won points by throwing the javelin for the track team โ in addition to their throwing of opposing football players and their base-bull throwing. Vin Mackey, for a small fellow, has broad-jumped well โ and he always had a smile. George Shine. Why attempt to ]iaint the lily? But it can be stated that besides being the college ' s best fencer he is, on track, one of the college ' s best fence jumpers, both high and low. Sufficient for George โ why cause him to blush? Joe Merrick. Another Adonis and high and low hurdler. Instead of fencing, Joe bows on the ' cello. He has been also the demon cheer leader. On April 19th Joe won the high hurdle race in the interclass track meet in the fast time (for so early in the season) of 15 4-5 sees. There have been many others who were called in nineteen twenty-eight but were not chosen to graduate in nineteen thirty-two because of the mental quirks of themselves or their teachers. Some were good. Not so good have been many others who appeared s|)oradically just for exer- cise and fresh air. Nineteen-thirty-two will be remembered as the Olympic year class; as Captain Moynahan ' s class; as the class of real Christian gentlemen; as the first class to graduate under the present inestimable President of Boston College, Reverend Father Gallagher.

She has contributed national and international champions, Driscoll, McClosky Cavanaugh, Flahive, and all the rest of the grand old gang were some of the finest trackmen who ever drew on a spiked shoe. The class of ' S ' i runs true to form in its contribution to the ranks of such men as these. FRESHMAN Along in the fall of 1928, the speedsters of ' S-Z got their first bit of action under the direction of one of America ' s crack track mentors, Jack Ryder. The indoor season, how- ever, was not a very busy one for the Eaglets of that year with no dual meets scheduled. Yet the flying feet of Jack Carew, Brendan Moynahan, Al O ' Shea and Jack Donahue were carrying the Eagle ' s colors to the front in the many banner indoor meets of the season. Two outdoor meets gave the vaulters and jumpers and the rest of the field-event men a chance to do or die for old ' S ' i and For Boston . Our frosh representatives made a jaunt up to Exeter, N. H., only to take a shellacking from the academy team by the tally of 86-40. Brendan Moynahan, and Jack Carew, in the mile and 880 respectively, came through with wins in corking good time. Dan Larkin and Joe Merrick both placed well up in the scoring in their events. The annual clash with the purple crusaders of Holy Cross was held up on Fitton Field, Worcester. The flying purple cubs ran the B. C. boys into the dirt, winning 82 to 53. Will Connor, Moyna- han, Arthur Ward, George Shinney, and Harry Downes broke the tape in front in their events. SOPHOMORE The Knights of the Cinder Path of the S gang broke right into varsity competition with a bang, and although it was a rather disappointing year for Jack Ryder and his army of soaring Eagles, yet the members of ' 32 were there giving their all, win or lose. That flying phantom of the cinders, little Bren Moynahan, went right out and grabbed himself a place on the varsity SOB GORRI ' % Maguire, high jump two-mile relay team, ranking on a par with the veterans, O ' Brien, Daley, and Meagher. That outfit started the indoor season with a bang, breezing home ahead of N. H. State and Holy Cross in the Boston K. of C. games, and then repeating with another victory over Columbia and M. I. T. in the Millrose meet in New York. A week later at the B. A. A. games, the Bates College two-milers, with Russ Chapman running anchor, smashed the winning streak of the Rydermen. The boys made a gallant bid for honors in the Indoor Intercollegiates but were forced to bow before the powerful Bates quartet. The mile team, with Jack Carew of ; 2 alternating at one of the positions, was unable to bring home the bacon in a single race. The outdoor season saw the Eagles lose two dual meets to Holy Cross and West Point. In the Greater Boston Intercollegiates B. C. placed third with Bren Moynahan taking a second in the mile and Jack Carew, he of the locomotive stride, romping home third in the varsity 880. Moynahan showed some magnificent running in the dual meets, taking a first in the two-mile and second in the mile at West Point, and a second in the mile in the Cross affair. Carew came home second in the B. C.-H. C. 880 and Dan Maguire tied for first in the high jump in the same affair. JUNIOR Our junior year was another golden year in the track history of Boston Col- lege. The crack two mile relay team, built up by the addition of Don Fleet of ' 33, enjoyed a corking good indoor season. Brendie Moynahan of our own class was again on hand, now as a veteran member of the team and showing better form than he had heretofore displayed. At the Prout Games, the opening meet of the indoor season, the crack quartet of Moynahan, O ' Brien, Jordan, and Meagher soared high and far to lead Holy Cross, N. Y. University, Harvard, and M. I. T. to the tape. The mile team of Ed. Carey, Don Fleet, Bob Sullivan, and Joe King ran a front race all the way in trimming Dartmouth. Fleet was not transferred to the two-mile team until about two weeks after the Casey games. At the Millrose meet in New York, the mile team finished second to a surprising up-and-coming quartet from Manhattan College. Dan Warms Up - = SOB mmm Connor, pole vault At the B. A. A. classic, the mile team again trailed, this time it was the crack Holy Cross four, with Mercury McCaft ' erty at the anchor position who hung it on the Eagle varsity milers. Russ Chapman, the crack half- miler from Bates College, carried his team to victory over the great Eagle two-mile team, and it was Harvard, with a revamped team, that gave the Maroon and Gold quartet a wonderful battle for second place. Coach Ryder disbanded his mile team after the Unicorn affair and shifted Fleet to his two-mile team. It was that team of Fleet, O ' Brien, Meagher, and Moynahan that carried the colors of B.C. to victory in the 1931 indoor intercollegiate two-mile relay championship of America. The Rydermen showed fairly good strength in the opening outdoor meet, the Greater Boston Intercollegiates, placing third. Dual meets were lost again, however, to West Point and Holy Cross. Don Fleet placed fourth in the 440 at the Intercollegiates at Franklin Field, Philadelphia, while the crack two- mile relay which Coach Ryder kept intact, ran a very close second to a very powerful Ohio State quartet in the Penn Relays. Moynahan, Merrick, Carew, Shinney, and Maguire all did some heavy point scoring for the varsity. SENIOR The Eagle Makes Track History With football out of the way and with no other winter sport to hold the undergraduate interest, track came to the front and stole the spotlight for the entire indoor season. It was a busy campaign for the Eagle relay teams and individual performers, ' all of whom gave excellent exhibitions against the pick of intercollegiate and club track stars in the leading Boston and New York indoor carnivals. V The Knights of Columbus Games at the Bos- ' L ton Garden saw the 1932 debut of the far-famed M|k Ryder relay teams, both the one-mile and two- Hj R I โ, ' -- ' ' ' ' ' ' mile . Led by the smooth-striding Maroon and โ โ C Gold captain, Bren Moynahan, the Eagle two- mile quartet, composed of Don Fleet, Paul Dailey, and Bob Jordan in addition to Moyna- han, romped away with the honors in the big relay feature of the evening in the time of 7:58 2-5. That was excellent running for the ' Will Soars .,1ย % fi ' SOB CORKT ' ' V Mackey, Ijroad jump first race of the season, and the victory, coming as it did over crack aggregations from New York University, Har- vard, Holy Cross, and New Hampshire, was doubly sweet to all the B. C. track followers. Moynahan, the only senior in the group, ran a corking good leg to breast the tape in front. The four Boston quarterniilers, Carey, McManus, Parks, and Dana Smith, eked out a great win over a sur- prising Tech one-mile team in another fast race. A week later Ryder took a medley relay quartet over to the Millrose Meet in New York, and the Eagle thorough- breds were forced to bow to a speedy N. Y. U. team. Don Fleet, great Maroon and Gold half-miler, was out of the running with a bad case of tonsilitis, and his absence was severely felt. Bren Moynahan, Dana Smith, Ed Carey, and Bill Parks did the racing for the Heightsmen and considering that medley relaying is something new in the B. C. repertoire, the lads didn ' t do so bad at all. The illness of Don Fleet probably cost the Maroon and Gold a victory in the two-mile relay at the annual B. A. A. gathering at the Arena when a powerful Bates team, anchored by that bit of human lightning, Arnold Adams, came home in front with B. C. second and Bowdoin in third place. Bob Jordan and Bren Moynahan ran two great legs to keep the Eagles in the thick of the fight all the way. Joe Killelea, running in Fleet ' s place, ran his heart out in a vain effort to stave off the bid of the fleet Adams. The traditional one-mile relay between Holy Cross and Boston College saw the cocky Crusader speed merchants gallop away from the crippled Eagle to a victory in the very good time of 3:25 2-5. Bernie McCafferty, the Purple Express, and his speedy pals from the Cross had a bit too much class for the four Eagle steppers, Carey, Parks, Smith, and McManus. The First Annual New England Indoor Intercollegiates, sponsored by the l niversity Club and held at the Garden, fovuid the Boston College team in fourth place in the standing with a final tally of 14 points, two behind our Worcester brethren, Holy Cross. The one-mile quartet picked up a few points when it placed second in the race with Northeastern and Tech. The Husky team pulled a big surprise )8aB6aRKi=: Iiy heating the Eagles. Dick Dutchy Holland ol ' good old ' ;5 ' -2 grabbed hiniself a fourth place in the 35-pound weight throw. The 1000-yard run was run off in two heats and the places awarded on a time basis. Paul Dailey was second and Bob Jordan, fifth, in the final standing. Frank Lang ran a great race to get second in the two-mile run. The last club meet before the annual Indoor Inter- collegiates found the two-mile relayers over in New York for the big Casey gathering at the Madison Square Garden. With Don Fleet once again back in harness, the Maroon and Gold-clad huskies raced to glorious triumph over highly- touted quartets representing N. Y. U. and Manhattan in arew, mi e re ay their best time of the season, 7:56 3-5. It was the magnificent anchor leg of Bren Moynahan, however, that turned the tide in favor of the Eagles. Fleet, still in bad shape as the result of his illness, ran his poorest race of the season and sent Moynahan away fully ten yards behind the flying form of Frank Nor- dell, famed Violet middle-distance star. The classy leader of the Heights ' aerie went right to work on the lead that Nordell had and at the half-way mark had cut it down to a few yards. On the final lap he timed his spurt nicely and steamed up by the flying New Yorker and won, going away. Bren had the Garden in an uproar throughout the entire race and he nearly brought the house down when he let drive on that last lap. What a race, and what a racer! The Brighton boy ran his half that night in 1:56 3-5. The team ' s time was 7:56 3-5. The classic of the Indoor Season, the eleventh annual I. C. 4A Meet, was held in the 258th Armory in New York City. The new track averaging six laps to the mile made the times in the various events considerably faster. The Eagle two- mile relay team, champions in 1931, were back again to defend their title against the pick of the college distance quartets. But another victory was denied the Maroon and Gold, when the crack New York University team nosed out the B. C. lads in one of the most thrilling races ever run in the annual indoor windu]) afl air. Don Fleet, still weakened as a result of the attack of tonsilitis, nevertheless ran a brilliant race in the vain efi ' ort to come through with a win. Bob Jordan, Paul Dailey and Captain Bren Moynahan rounded out the quartet of Eagle half- milers who carried the colors of B. C. to second place in the big event. The showing of the new members of the team, Jordan and Dailey, during Shine SOB mXSM i . . the indoor season, was a source of joy to the genial Maroon and Gold mentor, Jack Ryder. Both boys ran beautifully throughout the entire campaign and more than held up their end in the various banner track carnivals. ,y= . HoUand, weights Chris Cutler, the turn-around javelin thrower, upheld the honor and glory of the Maroon and Gold in that event, and eked out a few tallies now and then in his specialty. Harry Downes, he of football fame, hel]}ed the cause along, whenever he found time aside from his activities on the diamond, by hurling the spear. Harry was a brilliant prospect in the javelin until he suspended all his affiliations with track in order to hurl the pellet for Cheese McCrehan ' s ball team. Vin Mackey competed in the broad jump for the Ryder forces and showed some extra-fine leaping in the pit. Al Ricci turned his attention to track during his sophomore and junior years and qualified as varsity timber along with Chris Cutler in the javelin. Coming down to the novices who aspired to be Spencers, Wykoft ' s, Ber- lingers, and what have you, we find such distinguished members of ' 32 as Frank, M. E., Rice, the feller who used to board on The Heights. Frank used to go down and run around the track for fifteen or twenty laps, then when Ryder would ask him what he was out for, Ricey would say The Olympic team. He was usually accompanied on his me- anderings around the oval by Eddie Hurley, The Heights Eagle Eye of the past year, Frank Sullivan, former pole- vaulter at Soar Academy, Buddy Reilly, another Heights lioarder, and other promising bond salesmen, among them ? i Tom Crane.

Jack Ryder, opened on April 23 with a dual meet against the brave old Army team upon the wind-swept plains at West Point. Following in rapid suc- cession came the Penn Relays, Greater Boston Intercollegiates, Holy Cross dual meet. New England Intercollegiates, and the blue ribbon attraction of the spring, the I. C. 4A carnival out on the Coast at Berkeley, Cal. That was a schedule that taxed the ability and strength of the entire squad to the utmost, but the Eagles, led by the redoubtable Bren Moynahan of good old ' 32, came through in glorious fashion to make the season a string of repeated successes and outstanding exhibitions. Moynahan, after a brilliant indoor season as a half-miler on the two-mile re- lay team, went back to his favorite distance, the mile, for the outdoor season and continued to show his heels to the classiest distance men in the East. Bren climaxed his four years of track activity by his repeated victories over the mile route. He was a doughty little leader, one who inspired his mates to greater heights, and we of ' 32 are proud to claim him as our own. In the hurdles Joe Merrick brought back memories of his famous brother, Bob, who scintillated as a timber-topper while matriculating at the Heights. Joe ' s specialty was over the high sticks, though he was a better-than-average performer at clearing the low fences also. He was a familiar figure down on the track for four years, and he kept the Maroon and Gold right to the fore whenever he went to the line. George Shine divided his time between hurdling and distance- running. In the field events the class of ' 32 had its outstanding performer in Richard M., better known as Dutchy, Holland, who threw the hammer like Winchell threw the chatter. Dick is a veteran of four years experience and in that time he has placed in the first rank among the New England weight men. He scored consistently year after year in the New England Intercollegiates, the Greater Boston affairs, and usually walked ofT with first prize as a hammer-thrower in the various dual meets. Indoors he confined his activity to the 35-pound weight throw, and was good for forty-five feet repeatedly. Will Connor dabbled in three and sometimes four events, being a versatile artist either at broad jumping, pole vaulting, or high jumping. Dan Stretch Maguire, another gentleman of the fourth estate, covered himself with glory as a high jumper and by his classy exhibitions became outstanding in his specialty along the Eastern intercollegiate front. Dan was usually good for a first or second, no matter how classy the opposition might be, and his ability accounted for many valuable Eagle points. George Shinney was another senior who stayed right with Dan all the way, and managed to break into the scoring on numerous oc- casions. In both of these men, Ryder had two strong competitors, high jumpers of the front rank. Minov portsi SOB mmi ITarsiitp Ktnni Ktam Goode Love Kellev John T.

Up to that time the team, as representative of B. C, was more or less of a pickup affair, no organization, no captain, and with no real schedule. A rebirth of the popular sport, however, came with the increased facilities at the Heights and in 1929 a tennis club was formed at the college to increase the popularity of the game and to aid in the organization of a team that was truly representative of the Eagle. Since that time the sport has come with leaps and bounds. Tennis, along with golf, fencing, and rifle, was recognized as a minor sport in our sophomore year but very few of our own class have had the honor of wearing the minor B as members of the Eagle tennis team. In freshman Bob Barry was the sole ' 32 representative on the net squad, playing along with the veterans Haggerty, Antos, Rattigan, and the rest. The following season found the same dearth of representatives from our own class, and it was rumored that the class would have to import a few professionals to carry on the athletic prestige on the tennis courts. It wasn ' t so much that the material wasn ' t in the class as that those with the ability and experience were engaged in other pursuits and were unable to devote any time to tennis. Paul Goode, a really capable tennis player, Ed. Hurley, city of Cambridge champion two years running, Glynn Eraser, champ of the literateurs, and other crack netmen were some of those from the class of ' 32 who would have been wel- comed with open arms yet were unable to play because of outside activities. Bob Barry of our class was the sole recipient of a minor B in tennis. Junior came and we find not a single member of our class on the tennis team. Oi, Oi, such a depression! Barry that year had transferred his affiliations to the golf team and left ' 32 high and dry on the tennis horizon. Antos, O ' Connell, Rattigan, Gill, Donahue, Clough, and Hern, all of ' 31, and Keiran and Carr of sophomore carried on for Boston in our junior year and while the record they established was not remarkable, yet it indicated the progress that the sport was making here at the Heights. A southern trip, the first ever under- taken by an Eagle tennis team, was nothing more than a pleasure jaunt inasmuch as the team played only one match, defeating Loyola of Baltimore, 5-4. The home season was a disastrous one, the Eagle being torn from on high by B. U., M. I. T., and Brown, while the only victory came over the Providence College aggregation. In the final match of the year, the cocky Crusader of Holy Cross rode the Eagle into the dirt and came through victorious for the third consecutive season. With Goode, Hurley, Eraser, and perhaps Hugh Curtin, ready to play, it looks as though the class of ' 32 will have its share of representatives on the 1932 team. These stars of ' 32, together with Francis L. Sullivan of the same class, hope to combine and make the 1932 team one that will overshadow any outfit which ever represented the college on the courts.

In the past, Boston College has gained country-wide fame in the realm of intercollegiate hockey through the achievements of its magnificent teams which have flashed across the ice and on to national and international championships. However, the temporary discontinu- ation of the sport here at the Heights was done in the best interests of the college and its program of athletics. The freshman group which represented the class of ' S ' Z back in 1928 boasted some of the finest prospects ever to enroll at the college and some who certainly would have flashed to the front among the college stars if the chance for varsity play were ever given them. Harry Downes, Ed. Gallagher, Chris Cutler, Russ Lane, Gerry Moore, and others of ' 32 were among those Knights of the Steel Runners who carried the banner of ' 32 on high during the campaign that season and the splendid record that they established stamps them as representatives of one of the best freshman sextets in the history of the college. Bert Gleason, F. Hugh Curtin, Eddie Hurley, James Heggie, and George Shine showed some mighty fine hockey as alternates to the first team line-up, and all did a first class job whenever called upon to show their class. The frosh team had at the defense posts two former All choices in the per- sons of Eddie Gallagher and Harry Downes, from B. C. High and English High, respectively. Russ Lane was the spark plug of the forward line and the squad ' s leading scorer. The team opened its schedule against the fast and capable Mechanic Arts High School sextet and the result showed that the schoolboys were not in the same class. The Eaglets came through with a shutout win of 6 to 0. Russ Lane was the higji scorer in this fray with Ed Gallagher and Harry Downes contributing lots of help to the Maroon and Gold cause. The second consecutive win came over the clever New Prep team of Cambridge, the frosh winning 2 to 1 in the fastest game of the season. The Prep outfit was composed of former high school and academy stars and they gave the gang of ' 32 a great fight. Victories followed over Newton High, 2-1; Melrose, 1-0; Woburn High, 2-1; but in the final game of the year the Eaglets succumbed to the speedy St. John ' s Prep sextet, 2 to 0. Considering the fact that the team was without the advantages of a rink, the record that they set up shows mighty fine work, not only on the part of the regulars but of the whole squad.

Golf, during the past three years, has made wonderful advancement at the Heights and the calibre of the teams has placed them in the front rank of the Inter- collegiate Golf Association. The team in our freshman year went through an undefeated season wath victories over B. U. and M. I. T. and other leading Eastern colleges, winding up the season with a win over our old rival. Holy Cross. Moore and Nugent were smacking them far and wide that year and showed great promise. These two lads were eligible for varsity competition as freshman because golf had not yet been recognized as a minor sport and members of every class were able to play on the varsity. Sophomore came and with it the recognition of golf as a minor sport by the Athletic Association. This was an added incentive to the prospective gol fers to try for places on the team and the competition, to say the least, was red hot. Moore and Nugent, however, as veterans from the great 1929 aggregation, had no trouble winning places on the first Eagle golf team officially recognized by the Boston College Athletic Association. Moore also gained state-wide fame as medalist in the state Junior Championship. The schedule for that season was very light with just about five matches played. Victories were scored over Holy Cross and B. U., with losses to Harvard and Amherst, and a tie with Tech. In 1931, our junior year, the Eagle golf team started off the season with a southern trip, the first southern jaunt ever taken by a Maroon and Gold links team. Gerry Moore and Dick Nugent were joined by Frank Mulligan, Gerry Hern, and Cal Scully, all of ' 32, and these five formed the backbone of a really good team. The southern trip was a rather disappointing affair with no victories being scored out of foilr matches played in the sunny clime of the land below the Line. Lack of practice, however, was the chief contributor toward the downfall of the Heights link.smen; added to this was the fact that the opposing teams had weeks of competition before the Eagle team met them. Losses were suffered to the crack North Carolina and Georgetown outfits, and then the team began to find itself as the next two matches against William and Mary and George Wash- ington LTniversity ended in ties. Back from the southern trip and with plenty of time for practice and compe- tition, the Maroon and Gold pill chasers piled up six consecutive victories over such powerful teams as B. U., M. I. T., Tufts, Amherst, Brown, and Holy Cross. Moore and Nugent blazed the way for the rest of their mates in these matches and loomed as two of the greatest golfers in intercollegiate ranks. Mulligan, Hern, and Scully, despite the fact that it was their first taste of big league competition, came through nicely and were big factors in establishing the fine home record of the 1931 squad. . 1T% SOB GURRT t. f- ' K 1932 Jfencins Ztam Cl.

Fencing as a sport was established at the college back in 1924, but it was not until our sophomore year that the sport gained the recognition that it really and honestly deserved. That season saw one of the greatest Eagle fencing teams in action, led by the crack swordsman of them all. Captain Ed Steele. Along with Jim Langan, Allan Do- herty, and John McCutcheon, Steele carried his team to victory over M. I. T., General Electric, Shawmut Fencing club, and Bowdoin. During that year Steele took the silver medal in the New England amateur sabre championships, as well as cjualifying as a finalist in the epee in the intercollegiate semi-finals held at West Point. Not a single member of ' SS were able to crash the way to a place on that corking ' 30 team. With Steele and Langan missing for the 1931 team, two members of ' S ' i stepped in to fill the breach left by the departure of the two crack fencers of the great 1930 line-up. George Shine and Jim Hayden soon blossomed out as crack swords- men under the expert tutelage of Coach Roth. Both boys were strong competi- tors and made the fencing fans forget, at least to some degree, the masters, Steele and Langan. Captain Allan Doherty and Johnny McCutcheon, both of ' 31, aided the new members of the squad in all the matches, and even though the record established was not as good as it might have been, still the boys carried on with the same fight and determination that is characteristic of all Eagle teams. The opening match against the Shawmut Fencing Club resulted in a Maroon and Gold win, which was followed by victories over the Providence Y team and the Alumni group. The team showed a reversal of form after the Alumni match and fell before the flashing blades of fine swordsmen from Boston University, Norwich and M. L T. ' There was a marked increase in the popularity of the sport here at the Heights during junior, the main purpose of the coach being to build his material for the coming years and in putting the sport on a firmer basis among the undergraduates of the college. Through the influence of Herb O ' Connor, ' 31, fencing was recog- nized as a minor sport by the Athletic Association during our junior year. No doubt the awarding of the minor B to the members of the team helped im- measureably to increase the popularity of the sport and make it one of the most important activities in the new athletic program. - SOB CORKI v ' v OTitf) ttje Jfoilยฃi in 1932 ' T HE netted masks are off and the foils are crossed on the wall. The jackets - - and gloves, too, are off; but the memories of the past year are not so easily laid aside. The opening match of the foilsmen at New York was an enjoyable one, though lost; the match at Hamilton was gallantly fought and is happily remembered; the hurried trip to Maine with victory over Bowdoin was a feature, with Captain Shine and Jim Hayden starting a successful and victorious season. Then the matches at home in the illuminated assembly hall, where were defeated B. U., Norwich, Providence Y. M. C. A., and the Alumni. Captain George Shine was a consistent winner throughout the year, starring in saber and sword; Jim Hayden was holding similar limelight in the foils. Great praise is due Manager Joe Rock, who is to a great extent responsible for the successful season just passed. We only pray that his initiative and tireless energy will pass on to the 1933-4 team. What of John Roth, our Coach. ' Offering his time and instruction, he has done much for us and more for Boston College, turning out some of the finest fencers ever seen in college ranks โ most important of all, he has striven to make his pupils Catholic gentlemen, and he has succeeded. To try to thank him is futile; we hope only that he has been satisfied with the co-operation we have given him, and the effort we have made to be his equal. But we must not let the sword grow rusty in the scabbard of our mind, where it will be ever quick to prick our memory to days of ' 32. - SOB BORRI A- ' ' V. 1932 RIFLE TEAM ' - Back Row: Lambert, P.

Moakley, ' 32, Manager THE minor sport that accomplished the most for Boston College during our Senior year was undoubtedly the Rifle Team. Rifle shooting is a recent addi- tion to the list of Boston College sports, and as such gained its fame only by dint of the har dest struggle. For years the team, without official recognition, had no indoor range, until our Junior year, when one was installed in the icy lower regions of the Science Building. ' As yet the team possesses no outdoor range of its own. However, with the spirit that runs through all Boston College sports, this team battled against severe handicaps and remained a potentially dangerous or- ganization. When we think of the team ' s early struggles we can appreciate all the more the fact that during 1931 and 1932 it was the most successful minor sport at Boston College. That year the Boston College target busters were a Senior team, since nearly all were members of 1932. There was Captain Jack Carew, a veteran of the 1930 National Matches at Camp Perry, and an expert with rifle and automatic rifle. Along with him was the other militarist and bosom friend, George Nicholson, also an expert rifleman, and Vice President of the Club. These two .scored first and second in all but two matches, and were but four or five points apart. Rang- ing beside these was Jack Moakley, an expert rifleman and Executive Officer, who was a consistent and very high third in nearly all matches. Secretary John Con- nelly was a valuable point-scorer and nearly always finished among the first five men. Not far behind was blond John Callahan, Gerry Keating, Ed Herlihy, and Paul Stacey, all of whom saw service throughout the season. After a string of victories that included universities with R. 0. T.

SEASON OF 1931-1932 FOR FULTON The year 1931-32 was a busy one for the Fulton Debating Society. The annual trip through the South was cancelled and in its stead several of the more important colleges not in the East were brought out here, most important being the University of California, against whom Peter Quinn and Charles Donovan, the latter a junior, pitted their wits for a victory before the largest crowd ever to attend a Fulton Debate other than Harvard and Holy Cross. It was held under the auspices of the Cambridge Boston College Club, in Cambridge at the Hotel Commander. An unusual occurence took place in the spring of ' 32 โ the Fulton lost a de- bate. Despite the confidence of the audience and the school in Boston College ' s team, not to mention the strong arguments of the debaters for the Maroon and Gold, the judges gave the decision after much d iscussion to the College of William and Mary, for the first Fulton defeat in over three years. Another very interesting debate took place against Bates College of Maine, with Joseph Rock and William ( annon taking sides for Boston College. It was on the question of the Woman Staying at Home and was attended by a large gathering of the Philomatheia. A unanimous decision was awarded Boston College over Fordham in one of the late debates with Peter Quinn, Charles Donovan, ' 33, and James Connolly, ' 33, upholding the Maroon and Gold side of the question. The season was very successful with the exception of the William and Mary debate, which, because it did mean a defeat, thereby gained immortal fame for that College!

Fleming, ' 34 Beau Brummel, by Clyde Fitch, was presented at the Boston Civic Theatre on Monday and Tuesday evenings, February 8th and 9th. 1932, and it proved to be without cjuestiun the finest effort of the Society since its inception four years ago. The play was caj ably acted by a large east of experienced players. Edward J. Herlihy, who has played numerous times for the Society, portrayed the title role with most professional ability. Since we have been accustomed to see Ed as the robust, hearty type, we fully realized his histrionic nature when he so easily and naturally assumed the suave, easy-going, highly-confident British dandy. C. Glynn Fraser, a new comer to the Society, was very successful in his portrayal of the difficult role of the Prince of Wales, the Beau ' s patron and friend. In this first major role in a dramatic production at the College, Fraser displayed unsus- pected ability in a new field of activity. Peter C. Quinn, ' 32, President of the Dramatic Association, gave his attention to a portrayal that does not demand much of his talents. However, he made the most out of the role of the vengeful Mr. St. Aubyn, and accredited himself with his usual smoothness and dexterity. The other two seniors in the play, Norton S. McFadden and George H. Nicholson, gave excellent performances of the Jewish Money-lender, wherein Norton proved almost a Shylock, and the inebriated Lord Farthingale, the portrayal of which George did with rare flourish of the Sabine jar. ยฉ SOB SORKT .

Hern, Vice President Daniel A. Maguire, Secretary Thomas J. Crane, Treasurer John D. Brooks, Censor ' T HE Press Club at Boston College is made up of individuals who represent - - different Metropolitan dailies and the B. C. weekly, the Heights. It is a small but important organization, since it carries all the curricula and sporting news to the outside world. It is a difficult task, indeed, to act in perfect conform- ity with that nightmare of every college newspaper correspondent, the double standard, i.e., loyalty to his paper and an appropriate recognition of what the col- lege authorities want to release. So it is with a great deal of satisfaction that it may be written down for the sake of posterity and as a goal for future aspiring disciples of Mr. Maury, Professor of Journalism, that the 1931-32 band of Maroon and Gold .scribes handled this delicate situation in conformity with previous fine administration of the Press Club of years past. The induction of Rev. Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., into the rectorship was the biggest news story that broke during the current college generation, while the doings of Joe McKenney ' s undefeated eleven along with John P. Curley ' s appoint- ment to the Graduate Manager ' s chair took but ne.xt place in the sporting spot- light. CB SOB wjsm A- ' , Campion Cluli Quinii MaoGillivray Cronin OFFICERS Charles L.

Bonn, S.J., called a meeting of those interested in such a society. A large number attended โ among them many seniors โ and heard Mr. Bonn ' s excellent talk on the aims and ideals of such a society, which were later incorporated into the Constitution: to develop individual talent; to foster interesting reading; to instruct in the technique of composition; to encourage spontaneity and self-expression; to form the nucleus of a Catholic Writers ' Guild. The following year the Club took the name of Campion after the English saint and Jesuit, Edmund Campion. At the inauguration, Edward McCrensky of Sophomore read a paper on the life of this great man. To date, the Campion Club has heard, besides ])apers from the students, lectures by Father Leonard Feeney, S.J., Father Carol Bernhardt, S.J., and Father Terrence Connolly, S.J., not to mention numerous interesting and instructive lectures by the moderator, Mr. Bonn. - SOB GORKI C tKht iWilitairp Club Connelly, ' 32, Secretary Lambert, ' 34, Treasurer 32, Captain of Rifle Team Fabian Rouke, ' 34 James Fay, ' 34 Alfred Capitell, ' 3.5 Francis Doherty, ' 35 OFFICERS John J.

M. T. C. Club of 1927, receiving faculty recognition in 1928 as a full-fledged extra- curricula activity. Since that time, its members have been very successful in carrying out its first principles and initial stimulus: the promotion of a lively interest in Military Affairs in the students of the college; the establishment of a Reserve Officers ' Training Corps; sponsoring Rifle and Fencing teams in the in- stitution. Within the Club itself, there have been conducted, sometimes formally and often informally, discussions on military subjects, ranging from battleship building to shooting in the National Matches. In all its activities, the Class of ' 32 has played a prominent part and the instruction and interesting information garnered in the Military Club will ever remain of great help and experience to them. Enough of praise it be to acknowledge the fact that the present Military Club has been the stimulus for the greatest of Boston College Rifle Teams.

Downey, Secretary-Treasurer OINCE Ethics is a jn ' actical science and since its main benefit to students is to ' afford guidance of conduct, tiie Jesuit Fathers of Boston College have wisely included in their extra-curricula activities, a society for the discussion of practical phases, relations, implications, and applications of ethical truth. Under the direction of Mr. David Twomey, S.J., the Ethics Academy assisted both senior professors of Ethics and afforded a ve ry enjoyable and profitable season. As a means of supplementing the daily lectures in the Ethics class with a practical application of principles, the Senior Ethics Academy has been a very valuable aid to upper classmen. That the Academy found favor with the stu- dents was evidenced by the large and steady membership it commanded through- out the year. At the regular meetings held each Friday afternoon, the case method of studying ethics was introduced. This provided an interesting way of coming into contact with real life and seeing in it a constant moral law governing all its modes. Such principles as the double effect are more easily understood when looked into in this manner. Mr. Twomey delivered lectures on various subjects, supplementary to class matter, taking cases which one might meet in actual every day life, and exi laining them at length. In addition to the general lecture hour, a jieriod of discussion from the floor followed. SOB mmi r u int CUitj Moore Carey Shine Murphy OFFICERS Thomas S. Carey, President John T. Murphy, Vice President George W. Shine, Secretary Gerard W. Moore, Treasurer THE Business Club is the most practical extra-curricular organization in the school, formed for the sole purpose of bringing leading business men of all liranches into close contact with undergraduates at the Heights through the medium of weekly addresses to which the whole school is invited. In 1931-32, the Business Club enjoyed its most successful season under the energetic guidance of President Thomas S. Carey, ' 32. Tom procured an in- comparable group of speakers from countless types of business. These kindly gentlemen imparted their knowledge to appreciable audiences and gave unstint- ingly of their time and co-operation. To them the Business Club owes a debt of gratitude. Some of the speakers included Charles Chuck Darling on the employment situation; William Sheehan on advertising; Rev. Francis X. Driscoll, S.J., on vocations; Paul Markey on insurance in general; William Cooney on invest- ment; Daniel Harkins on traveling agency; William Bixby on retail stores; John Ring on claim department in insurance business; Richard Teeling on vocations; Charles Birmingham on Industrial Loans; Charles Hawkes on direct advertising; Charles Collins on banking as a vocation; and William D.

This activity is one of the more recent that have been or- ganized at the college, and its popularity, since its establishment here five years ago, has grown with leaps and bounds. The Academy affords a splendid oppor- tunity for students in all classes to further their knowledge in whatever phase of physics they may be interested in, as well as giving them more detailed informa- tion in regard to the newest developments in the world of invention, aviation, et cetera. For the first season since the club was founded, Fr. Tobin, S..I., was unable to act as moderator, due to the pressure of his duties as head of the Physics De- partment, and in his jjlace, Mr. P. J. McKone, S.J., directed the club ' s ' work for the year. Mr. Edward F. Hurley, lietter known as Eagle Eye, genial Sports Editor of the Heights and Sttl Turri, did a great job as president of this important society and to him must go a good deal of the credit for the outstanding success of the academy. He culminated four years of very active service this past year. Eddie was secretary of the club in his junior year and his election as president in Senior was unanimous.

Marcus Lewis, Secretary Frederic Minigan, Sergeant-at-Arms L ' ACADEMIE FRANCAISE ITS eighth successful year was completed in 1932 by the French Academy, still under the kind and inspirational direction of the Rev. Paul de Mangleere, S.J. The aims of the academy are first of all to give an intimate knowledge of the French language, which is gained by conversation, the open forum, debates, dra- matic sketches, and presentation of essays by the members on various types of literature, art, music, and topics interesting because of their application to things French. At present, the academy is made up of about twenty-five students who are qualifieclby real interest, a fine grasp of French, and their reward is always greater than the expenditure toward attaining it. This group has sponsored lectures by eminent French lecturers as well as itself staging debates. Notably in this latter connection, was the intercollegiate debate given at Holy Cross against that insti- tution. It marked the first public debate, entirely in French, ever held in the United States. It was of especial satisfaction as Bo.ston College was victorious in the opinion of the judges. Among the lecturers was Mme. Jeanne Brondell- AUen of the Conservatoire de Paris, famous as an authority on French folk-lore and folk-songs. The most important activity of the French Academy was the oratorical con- test held in the Philomatheia Clubhouse before Cardinal O ' Connell, who after the event presented each of the contestants with a beautiful souvenir as a remem- brance of the labor, time, and study put into the Academy. - SOB mmm v v panisifj catremp Cass Larkin Sullivan OFFICERS Daniel J. Larkin, President Edward B. Cass, Vice President Francis L. Sullivan, Secretary-Treasurer MANY happy hours have been spent by members of this Class at the weekly meetings of the Spanish Academy. One voluntary session a week has added greatly to the knowledge of our members both in the ability to converse in the language and to learn of the facts of Spanish History and Geography. A remark- able feature of the Academy has been the co-operation of the students in accom- plishing so much when as a matter of fact only ten per cent of the students at the College select Spanish for their Modern Language Course. President Daniel J. Larkin, ' 32, together with Mr. Frederick Conlin, Modera- tor of the Academy,- arranged a series of lectures which were intermingled with studies of Spanish grammar. Some of these were delivered in the native tongue and a few in English. For the first time since the beginning of the Spanish Academy, charms were designed and distributed to Senior members as a mark of their fidelity in assign- ment and attendance. This awarding of charms will be continued yearly to graduating members. The members of the Academy have also enjoyed many impromptu talks and discussions by the Moderator relating to his experiences in the tropics in Spanish speaking countries. This method of teaching the language has developed a great fluency in our own Spanish speech besides being very interesting. The lectures given were as follows: โ Toreadors and Their Bullfights, Mr. John A. Conway, ' 33 A Legend of Old Spain, Mr. Anthony La Camera, ' 34 Excerpts from Don Quixote, Mr. Edward Reardon, ' 32 An Old Moorish Castle, Mr. James Deary, ' 34 A Day in Andulusia, Mr. Guide Palurabo, ' 32 Provincialism, Mr. Frederick Conlin, Moderator The Rivers of Spain, Mr. Daniel Larkin, ' 32 CBSOBGaRRII .

It is under the direction of Rev. Mar- tin P. Harney, S.J. This new society was appropriately named the Ludwig von Pastor Historical Society in honor of this great layman who, by unselfish labor, has earned for him- self the distinction of being ranked with the leading historians of the modern world. His History of the Popes has long been looked upon as the standard history of the papacy during the Renaissance and the Reformation. During the past year of its work, the student body turned out en masse to hear the popular Rector, Father Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., tell of his personal ex- periences with Dr. Walsh, S.J., as the papal delegation to care for the afHicted Russians several years ago. His two years in the very thick of the fray, as it were, in Russia, were replete with valuable educational instruction as well as intensely interesting information. His lecture was called The Five Year Plan and proved to be one of the finest ever given at the college on such a subject.

OTorb bout Clutis; AMERICAN universities and colleges have within the last decade been experiencing what might be styled as the phenomenal rise of the Under- graduate and Urban clubs, as vital forces in student and alumni activity. Throughout the various cities and towns of major importance, groups of graduates have assembled together and banded themselves into club units to perpetuate the traditions of their Alma Mater in their respective communities. A similar movement has taken place at Boston College. Throughout the towns and cities of Eastern Massachusetts, and even in the larger metropolises, alumni and students have come to band themselves to keep alive the memories of the college days. Programs of a social nature have been undertaken, not to mention numerous charitable and religious undertakings. In most cases, these clubs have succeeded in uniting and solidifying that spirit of common fellowship that exists between Boston College men within the confines of one particular province. Despite the fact that in the cases of some of the clubs, periods of genuine a nd earnest activity have been sporadic and sometimes intermittent, the greater of these clubs have been persistent and enduring in their endeavours. This state- ment is, of course, quite evident from the individual histories of these various organizations. The great need, however, at the present time seems to be for a unity of action. The want of a co-ordination of endeavours with a common purpose and a common goal, tends to minimize the effect of the individual club ' s efforts, when viewed in the light of the needs of a college as a whole. Needless to say, their present accomplishments are praiseworthy. But might not their individual actions be much the more effective were they all striving for the same goal? It is well known, and an accepted fact, that the power and prestige of a university today lies to no little amount in the strength of its alumni body. With this in mind, we like to look ahead to the time when the present numerous B. C. clubs in the making will have spread and not be so much community clubs as city clubs.

For a numl)er of years the members of this sjjlendid organization have aided the college ' s activities in every field of endeavour. They have devoted their time, effort, and labor, without material compensation, because of their sincere devotion to the highest ideals. On January 15th, lOS ' J, the ladies of this club tendered the Senior Class its annual reception for the graduates. The ball was held in the Main Ballroom of the Copley Plaza, with music by Bill Bigley and his Country Club Orchestra. It was a function we shall never forget. The Philomatheia Club has always been friendly toward ' 32 and has lent both its support and its club house to class functions. They have founded scholarships and have purchased for their club house the land which some day will be utilized by the College for building. The title Philomatheia means, we believe, friends of learning, and indeed these self-sacrificing women have given a plentiude of their time and efforts to the cause of learning and to the class of ' 32. The greater Boston College of the future, which we all hope for and to the best of our ability are working for, will be due in no small part to the co-operation and support of the Philomatheia Club. We of ' 32 offer to its President our sincere thanks for the many kindnesses received at the hands of this splendid organization. PHILOMATHEIA BALL COMMITTEE Mrs. Frank A.

The garden outside our window is not obscured, but gone โ sometimes it seems forever โ is the glory of the hills. Beyond the garden there is a bit of road leading somewhere; whither, we must take on faith, and on faith, too, we must take the mountains to which we would fain lift our eyes. Then the sun rises: and it is as though somebody turned on the lights behind the vaporous curtain, a curtain that presently rends itself into wraithlike fragments flung horizontally across the new-found splendor of the hills. In a few minutes not one whit of fog remains. Something like that, I think, must take place in the mind, โ more accurately, in the soul โ of him who would penetrate to the heart of books. Energy, per- severance, enthusiasm, even intelligent scholarship โ all desirable and necessary โ can give us no more satisfying and proportioned vision of life than corresponds to that pleasant patch of garden beneath this open window. Beyond that uncertain stretch of road, sight cannot penetrate the grayness that enshrouds the world. Then great books come, great literature, great interpretations of human life. Homer, Virgil, Dante, Shakespeare; and lo, the clouds are shattered, dissolved. We learn of a sudden, as Browning put it, that life means intensely and means good. Perhaps we join his errant monk in crying, To find its meaning is my meat and drink. These remarks are not practical, you say? They are not meant to be practical; they are meant to be.vital. They may fall on every ear but they cannot take root in every heart. Only those who are alert and wise and gracious may under- stand.

The Editor takes this occasion to personally thank Brother Leo for his splendid SUNRISE FOG.

The poet therefore who draws deepest from that tradition which consummates truth, produces, the other essentials being equal, the greater art. To strengthen this assertion, the civilization of antiquity and our post-Reformation period might be con- trastingly aligned with the attainments of The Oreat Thousand Years. In the pagan culmination of art, lyric poetry and sculpture expressed with unexcelled technical beauty debasing religious untruths. Its drama and architecture were undermined by a conscious- ness of inexorable destiny which also, however powerfully expressed, was untrue. The post- Reformation, on the other hand, artificially exalted a tradition which, even as the religious source from which it came, was unsubstantial and unconvincing. Medievalism possessed a more complete and stronger understanding of life than was expressed by the unanchored artists of this reformed tradition. To the former period they added an unfatalistic and truer knowledge of man ' s existence and in the Nativity, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrec- tion, they possessed an eternal source of beauty of which the pagan mind had no con- ception. The worldly aspect of this tradition is the matter to which the poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer has given a substantial form. His early years proved a formative period devoted to omniverous reading and writing wherein his technical subservience to the French poets is apparent. To this period of adherence to the French models belongs his tran.slation of Fragment A of the Romaunce of the Rose and the Book of the Duchess: a lament for the deceased wife of his patron John of Gaunt. The framework of this latter poem may belong to the poetry of France but the charm of the illusion of dreamland, the skillful imagery and reticence belong to Chaucer and are a significant index of the poet ' s gradual mastery of his craft. This formative period extended over eleven years during which he was excessively busy at the court of the King, serving on private embassies to France and Italy, . fter his first return from Italy he completed Troitiis and Cressida. This great work is a tragedy of love and its spiritual humour and penetration of character merits Rosetti ' s laud of being the most beautiful narrative poem in our lan- guage. In substance it is a psychological study of two characters consumed by the passion of love and ignorant of the truth of its material in.stability. The slow particulariza- tions of the catastrophe, the deliberateness of the doom, Troilus ' fidelity and Cressida, tendre herted, slydinge of carage โ these are the integral units of the poem. But the essential distinction in tradition, he evidences in the concluding stanzas: Swich end hath, lo, this Troilus for love, Swich end hath al his grete worthinesse; Swich end hath his estat real above, Swich end his lust, swich end hath his noblesse. Swich end hath false worldes brotelnesse. And thus began his loving of Criseyde, As I have told, and in this wyse he deyde. O yonge fresshe folkes, he or she. In which that love upgroweth with your age, Repeyreth home from worldly vanitee. And of your herte up-casteth the visage To thilke God that after his image You made, and thinketh al his but a fayre This world, that pas.seth sone as floures fayre. And loveth him, the which that right for love Upon a cros, our soules for to beye, First starf, and roos, and sit in hevene above; For He nil falsen no wight, dar I seye. That wol his herte al hooly on him leye. And sin He best to love is, and most meke. What needeth feyned loves for to seke? This concept of love being es.sentiully suprasensual and spiritual is of the austerity of truth and beauty which the dogmas of Apostolic Christianity alone epitomize. This rejection of material love for the Christian ideal is a rooted element in the poetry of Chaucer; it was dominantly Catholic. Consequent upon his second return from Italy in 1383, he wrote the House of Fame and the Legend of Good Women. Most probably upon the request of the Queen, the latter -i) SOB COREI . - ' ' %. was written for the women of the Court who had requested retribution for his previous portrayal of female infidelity in the Troiliis. From his exaltation of such characters as Cleopatra it seems to be a subtly ironical tribute. However, this may prove another instance wherein Chaucer manifests an affinity with expediency. The former poem is a humorously original treatment of the goddess of Fortune who confounds ambition with obscurity and exalts reticent genius to fame or, as the divine whim moves her, fickly inverts the procedure. Although the imagery and construction are extraordinarily effective his approaching greatness is best foreshadowed by the fusion of poignant irony and humour. In the Troilnn he has studied Man domi- inated by Love; in the latter poem he has studied him dominated by Ambition; grad- ually he has acquired a conscious power which in the Canterbury Tales willenablehim to study Man โ whole. Criticism of this work without an understanding of the spiritual and temporal elements of Medievalism is empty, conse- quently a prefatory word seems essential. History attests that in the absence of Divine intervention such plagues as that which three times devastated Europe in the fourteenth century irreparably vitiate the morale and morality of a people. The Church in her function of administering spiritual rites to a dying people found it imperative to augment her clergy as swiftly as the Black Death depleted it. As a con- sequence of such an enforced enrollment the character of the clergy was lowered and the religiousness of the laity correspondingly undermined. The character of these people, clerical and lay, the observant Chaucer under- stood and portrayed and if criticism lacks the former the fault is neither Chaucer ' s nor his contemporary humankind. One of these understandings concerns his trenchant satire against the clergy of the religion which he professed. But religious satire of a partially vitiated clergy was a pre- rogative of the medieval Catholic and some writers who endured severe hardships for their faith had no scruples about its effective use. But there is about the satire of Chaucer a general and tolerant element. The Monk was religious but not of the heroic mould; his eye had too worldly a lens; the hardened cynicism of the Pardoner could not conceal his disconsolateness, the bitter cynicism of a being who had attempted to adjust his Christianity to the world. But because Geoffrey Chaucer saw life whole, he wrote also of the Priest, the Prioresse, and the Parson, those religious who, during the scourge of the plague, fed the hungry, strengthened the dying, and buried the dead. These were the people among whom Chaucer spent his last years in the Benedictine mon- astery of St. Mary ' s, whose humanity never weakened the strength of their religious faith nor their Divine commission. . second criticism concerns the immoral and vulgar elements in Chaucer. The sound mind finds the immoral repellent and its presence in his poetry is coramensurately repugnant. But in the manner of treatment it might be noted that there is no sentimental- ism in the delineation of the characters ' immorality nor is it ever justified. The characters were churls and they told their stories with a vividness and lowness that well characterized them. In his Retraction, writ- ten in maturity, Chaucer expresses regret for the immoral content of his work and with him we experience the same regret. However, our unsound, inconsistent age, which condemns as vulgar the terming of natural objects and functions naturally, meets a correspondingly intense hostility. In the Tales themselves the adoption of the Canterbury pilgrimage was not to create a series of fiction but to hurl into a drama a group of contemporary humans. The action of the dramatic narrative involves the intimate relations of these pilgrims brought together by a common religious impul.se. To offset the tediousness of the journey a story is told along the way by each pilgrim, the best to be rewarded by a banquet upon their return to the Tabard Inn at Southwark. It is this framework into which he has as- sembled the humanity of the fourteent h century in all its variety of costume and character; and history records them with no greater fidelity. SOB BORKI THE ROMANCE OF THE SWORD (A Brief History) We stand amazed before a sea of ancient weapons in the magnificent arms room of the Wallace Collection, London. What tales they tell, these weapons! Some are designed with utmost simplicity, others most extrava- gantly and intricately. We gaze at them in our knowledge with keen interest and reverent respect, or in our ignorance with wondering curiosity. Here is one whose plain cross-hilt may have pressed a young cru.sader ' s burning breast as he knelt, keeping the silent vigil of the night before the altar ' s glowing lamp, consecrating his noble life to open again the Holyland or fall himself where Christ had died. This blunt thing ' is such a one as the craven snapped and flung from his hand as he lowering crept away and left the field. ' This gracefully modeled rapier might well have graced some swaggering Tybalt ' s side, with a head as full of quarrel as an egg is full of meat, one who would fight with a man for cracking nuts, having no other rea.son than because he him.self had hazel eyes. It was an old slightly curved weapon such as this that was used by Charles Martel in conquering the Saracens and which .same sword is said to have been the one found buried under the altar of the village church of Sainte Catherine de Fierbois by Joan of Arc, and carried by her in the great battle of Patay, when the English were driven beyond the Loire. Gazing pen- sively at these relics of the pa.st there dawns upon us, how extensive is the scope of the history of the sword, how the sword has been the instrument of great good and great evil, how it has severed civilization as well as retarded it, how saint and sinner have found in its cold sharp blade a powerful ally, as well as a deadly enemy. Here is a land, fascinating to behold, explored by few. In the twilight of its forest ' neath divers dense recesses are many hidden diamonds of the hazy long ago. Projected backward we view the passing of the now ' of many bygone ages. The dusty, crumpled past breathes again, lives again! To grasp a swept-hilt ' rapier, to feel the deep dent in the morion, to lift a huge two bander, a Schiavona, small sword, Spadron or Claymore lends a personal touch to history, a tangible contact with other days. Before me rests a crumbling book, its pages crisp, tattered, and yellowed by the years spent under Spain ' s smiling sun. Its author plays an interesting ray upon the beginnings of the use of the sword according to definite rules and concrete principles. It was. Dr. Moreno claims, in the East Indies that fencing was born as an art, for here appears the evi- dence in the form of one of the peoples ' sacred books containing the theory of the manage- ment of arms, which was looked upon b.y the religious leaders as composing a revealed science. There were represented in this book some thirty-two different types of arms; some of these may still be seen held in the hands of their idols. But we have not time to pursue further the embryonic state of fencing or of the sword. We must pass over the bronze-bladed, golden-hilted sword of Sargon First of Vr, those of bronze and the few of iron and steel carried by Pharaoh and his host to the bottom of the Red Sea, that with whose leaf-shaped tongue Menelaus the Spartan King assailed the topless towers of Illium and the straight double edged Roman sword upon which Brutus ran after his defeat on the plains of Philippi. There are many more that we must pass over so that we may arrive at the more important stages of the development of the sword. The age of chivalry found the sword still a rather simply fashioned weapon. The most popular were the heavy two bander, the hand and a half which could be used in one hand or in both together, since the handle was long enough for part of the left hand to be slipped on to it when desired; the customary one handed sword which was the most convenient to carry, and the long sharp pointed stiff bladed estoc whose special duty it was to pierce plate armor that withstood the crashing blows of the one or two hander. The knights of this era were not as devoid of all knowledge of fencing as many believe, for when they relinquished their lance fighting, during which they depended considerably upon the brute force of their strong right arms and the strength of their armor, and took up sword and shield, there we have defence and offence, the elements of fencing. ) SOB mmm . . The poleaxe, about five feet long, and wielded with both hands, was a much favored weapon as late as the fifteenth century, as well as during the height of feudal chivalry in the twelfth century, where Mallory and Tennyson placed the Arthurian legends. We can hear the song of the knighthood, moving to their hall. Shall Rome or Heaven rule in Arthur ' s realm? Flash brand and lance, fall battle ax upon helm! Fall battle axe, and flash brand! Let the King reign! The advancing years found men discarding their weighty armor and relying more upon agility and skill to make up for the less com- plete protection of hand buckler or cloak. The period of the rapier which we meet next in our walk upwards through the centuries extends from the middle of the 16th to the middle of the 17th century. The long Hispano-Italian rapier with its usual com- panion, the dagger or cloak, is the mo.st typical of this period. The old knightly swords had not passed entirely from the stage. There was also the case of rapiers, two short swords lying side by side in the same sheath and used one in each hand. Yet these were but candle glows before the rapier ' s rising sun. This most interesting of weapons developed from adding curves to the cross bars or quillons of the knightly swords to better protect the hand, then rings of steel were added one by one at the cross section of the hilt placed so as to better guard the knuckles and especially the finger which was twined over the quillon for a stronger grip, thus giving us the beginning of the finger holes or pas d ' ane still seen on the Italian foils and duelling swords. At the close of the 16th century we find that these gradual additions reach a peak in the swept hilt rapier, which had a long two edged blade and a graceful sweeping hilt of many steel bars. In the 17th century we find the highest type of the rapier when the swept hilt had evolved into the cup, and the simple guard of the dagger had become a solid triangular shell about the back of the hand. The.se unwieldy weapons were ordinarily four to five feet long. Their entry into foreign lands, especially into the precious stone set in the silver .sea, was much resented by the old masters who loved the downright-blows of sword and buckler not the thrusts of this new bird spiting foreign imposter. These stout Englishmen looked upon such a fight as that between Macbeth and Macduff, with their swords and bucklers as the only manly method of sword play, and gazed with greatest disdain upon the rapier with its deadly thrust. It is against this weapon that Mercutio complains in Romeo aiidJidiel, when wounded by Tybalt: No, ' tis not so deep as a well, nor so wide as a church door but ' tis enough; ' twill serve โ Zounds, a dog, a rat, a mouse, a cat, to scratch a man to death! .A braggart, a rogue, a villain, that fights by the book of arithmetic. This last indicates Spanish play, for they fenced on an imaginary circle along cords of which the attacker moved into the most advantageous position. Ham- let gives Laertes a most palpable hit in their oft-mutilated duel with rapiers and daggers. Occasionally a cloak wound around the left arm took the place of the dagger. It was used to entangle the opponent ' s point or to ward off blows, to throw over his sword or even over his head. We have an excellent illustration of this in Cyrano dc Bcryerac when the lovable long-nosed cavalier engages the eft ' eminate Valvert: Lightly I toss my hat away. Languidly over my arm let fall The cape that covers my bright array Then out swords and to work withal! In the middle of the 17th century we came upon a period of transition, the link between the long rapier and the small sword in the shape of the flamberge. This was really only a lightened rapier. It had a long, flat, slender sometimes flamboyant or wavy, blade, a fairly long grip, with a longer weight or pommel at its end to counterbalance the blade, simple quillons, small shell guard and pas d ' dne. During the last quarter of this century the first .small sword makes its bow. This blade was flat and some thirty inches long, but as it was intended solely for thrusting, this was found to be too supple for safety. To correct this we find a diamond-shaped blade being introduced. This was much stiffer and more trustworthy, although uncomfortably heavy.

De Mauprat and the traitor Barada cross their shapely French transitional rapiers in the play, Richelieu. The colichemarde was another weapon of this period and flourished during the first half of the 18th century. It is characterized by a blade that is wide near the hilt, then suddenly tapers down to thinness giving it a lumpy appearance. From the colichemarde we pass on to an important improvement in the sword. This was the delicate feather weight small sword which could be handled as quickly and pre- cisely as our modern fencing foil, and was placed into the hands of progressive and able French masters in about the middle of the 18th century. This elegant little instrument was now in its most perfect form. The pas d ' ane had almost entirely disappeared, being too small to put the fingers through. There was a curved bar or knuckle bow to protect the back of the hand, a small round guard and a thin light triangular blade. Soon after the French Revolution the wear- ing of the sword in private life was slowly discontinued, so that in the 19th century we find the sword gone from the gentlemen ' s side, although reminders of it remain even until today in his custom and dress. He still wears two buttons on the back of his formal clothes from which his trusty blade was wont to hang, and he offers a lady his left arm so that his right may be free to draw in her defence. The small sword lo.st its pas d ' ane and knuckle-bow, retaining only its shell guard. This was the epee de combat, the favorite duelling weapon of the French, which does not essentially differ from that used in the modern sport of fencing We could only take the hill-tops ' in this trip through the used to be. We examined mostly the swords of the upper clas.ses that stood out clearly. The common people and enlisted soldiers often had far different weapons. They generally favored the heavy, cutting weapons. The English loved their ponderous basket-hilted broad-swords, as did the Italians, Germans and the Spaniards, and the Scots had their whacking claymores. Indeed just as many leaves lie along the valley ' s bed so we see many shadowy swords, undiscernible from the heights of rapier and colichemarde, resting in the untrodden woods below. But let them lie vmdisturbed, for we have traveled much in the realms of yore and seen many goodly arms that our fathers used to wear, nor is our ignorance nearly so be- wildering as it was when we first stepped into these shady woodlands of the romance of the sword. ith blood ICHTHUS (ToE.B.

Vainly did Tobias struggle to fight off the torturous, weakening pain. In one corner of the dark house the fire, too, was doing its best to keep alive โ exhausted tongues of flame licking at a damp fagot. The warm glow had gone; a yellow pallor of light trembled like a soul at the gate of death. His face was haggard in the dismal light. The shadows lay deep on the lines about his mouth and beneath his eyes. Care, hardship, worry. He was like something drying up before the embers โ something once ripe and full that had met the frost too often and tlie flame too late. Only his eyes lived in the chilliness and the age of him, still warm and youthful. Paradoxical, it seemed. The hovel had been quiet save for the weak sputterings of the fire, and the occasional cries of an infant. Now it was quieter still. Not even the woman who bent above the crib moaned any more. It would have been better if she did. It was very quiet, and very cold. So for a time it remained. Then Tobias rose and pushed the ashes together with his foot. The flame leaped up for a moment, then died down, fuelless. The woman and the child were darker than before. It was a long time, he thought, since either of them had moved or spoken. He laid his hand upon her arm. She rose, her thin body trembling between him and the child. Dead, she said. His arms arc about her. She is very cold within them, but the breath of her upon his ciieek is hot โ too hot. Dead, she .says. Where do the foxes sleep? she asks. They sleep in the warm ground. Where do the dead sleep. ' ' They sleep in the warm ground. Cover, cover him over; cover him over. He will be away from the wind. She raises her head to his, and smiles at him, a smile like the aging fire before her. He is so t ' cry cold. And now the rigidness has gone out from her, and she is heavy against his heart. Uebecca, Rebecca โ like a lamp without oil. lie thinks, or a fire without fuel. Let her sleep upon the straw bed. . s one who has felt the horror of a vivid dream and doubts if he wakes or sleeps, with his woolen toga flung over his tattered gar- ments, blindly he staggers out into the dark. Boughs strike his face, naked boughs, crying in the wind behind him. He is running. A strange gladness comes to him. He has something to fight. His child dead! He will not feel the cold. His wife asleep. Ha! She will not feel the boughs against her flesh. Her lips that were fair in April are bitter in December! Ha! He is numb with sorrow and with cold! Ha! The wind cannot bite him any more, who wears despair as a cloak. He is warmer than the foxes who sleep in the ground. Bethlehem. Crowds of people hurrying to firesides. A poor man and his family hasten- ing on foot. A wealthy group traveling in luxury. So many for the enrollment. Re- unions โ happiness โ for them. On, Tobias runs in the night. He is follow- ing a road to the hills. Fuel and food . . . Strange, he has never seen so bright a star before . . . On he goes, panting up the tortuous path. It winds around a large rock. Behind it is the cave ... he .stops, and the star stops, shining down full upon it. That .star โ so large and full. When a star falls, a child is dead. It should not be there, so bright and mocking. His child is dead. What was that sound. ' Yes. He is almost sure that he can hear an infant ' s cry. Im- pulsively he enters the cave. W ithin are a man and a woman. It is more destitute even than that dark room he has left behind. Cattle with their cold noses and warm breaths bend above a tender babe. He must go closer. Ah! No wonder that the child cries, so poor are the swaddling bands that bind him. And his child is cold no longer. It is a chill night. His voice startles them. Indeed, the man replies. So cold, Tobias thinks, .- nd the young childโ Is the babe cold? Would that we had wherewith to clothe him, the man says sadly. His child dead. Would God love him the more if he let another die, and be buried among the sleeping foxes on the hill? Sud- denly he takes off his homespun tunic and lays it over the infant. SOB eORKT lint you are scant clad yourself, the woman says, Ah. no! I am warm. I am clothed as you cannot see, with heavy garments. I do see, the woman says. Tobias laughs. May God grant you vision always. And may He give you sight, So he went out. Strange, how the infant ' s face was gleaming, and strange how the hap- pine.ss seemed to come suddenly upon him, with a new warmth that was not the numb- ness of his pain. And when the woman said, May He give you sight, how brightly the star seemed shining behind the fissures in the rock. Here in the woodland are boughs upon the ground, enough for a thousand fires such as the beacon nigh to Herod ' s palace. He gathers the branches and hurries homeward. His wife might miss him. On the dark path to his home a man meets him, gai ' bed in great finery like the out-rider of a king. Swart and tall he is, of some strange land, with his turban and his jewelled sword; nor in his accent like aught that Tobias has heard before, but smooth and flowing like the language of the Greeks. Where is that Jesus of Nazareth who was born this night. I have not so much as heard his name. Know you Miriam and Jusef, the car- penter, to whom a child is born. ' ' In a cave beneath a star, I saw a young child wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger. The Saviour of the world is born, and we have come to adore him. ' So the rider spurred his horse. But he was going the wrong way. Up toward Herods palace, where the child was not. He would not find him there. But Tobias did not know- that weary across the desert there were other three who would kneel that night, with gifts of great price. He knew only that it was .strange to adore a babe. In his land men adored the Infinite God. Strange, happy night! He knew he was not mad to be singing in the wind, he with his child so late dead. He should not be happy, yet he was, and he knew that he was not mad. Strange, happy night! And there, from his rude cottage, was his wife ' s voice, singing a sweet lullaby in the darkness. Rebecca! Tobias, all the world is singing! Our child ... He grew warm upon my breast while I slept. He is not dead? Ah, yes, thank God, he is dead! See how cold he is. Yet you sing. I have done an evil thing, Tobias. But God has forgiven me, and so I sing. What do you mean? Before evening came, when yet our child lived and you were out upon the hill, a woman came to our door. She was with child, Tobias. ' Let me enter here with you, ' she said, ' and lay my babe with yours. ' But I said, My husband is away, and we have not room upon our bed for thy husband and mine, nor have we room in my crib for my child and thine, nor room upon this straw for thee and me. I cannot let you in. ' . . . ' Then where shall I keep my child warm, when he is born? ' she asked. And what did you say? ' Lay him where I shall lay mine who will soon be dead, ' I answered. ' The foxes are warm under the ground. Lay him upon the hill and he shall not be cold for long. ' So she answered not a word, and was gone. It was a great sin. Yet you say you were forgiven, and the child grew warm upon your brea.st! Ah, yes! An hour ago, while you were gone, I felt the child move. It was then that I awoke, having dreamed I saw her child born the winter hills. And I bade you give him your cloak. Where is your cloak, Tobias? I gave it him. I saw you give it. And when her child was warm, my child grew warm, too. I felt it stir. And then the woman spoke. What did she say? ' Lay your child among the foxes, for mine hath not where to lay his head. Let your child die upon the bed, for mine will hang upon the air. ' And then I saw the soldiers of Herod coming for my babe, and they seized him warm from my breasts, and on their swords they split him. ' .So would it have been with you, ' the lady said, ' and better he were dead. ' And so a great peace came upon me through her words, and I prayed her to forgive me. So she smiled and answered. I SOB GORKI ' ' . ' May God give you sight, for this day a son is born to me. Who is called the Christ. ' And with that, you came to me, and found me singing. Listen, said Tobias. All the world is full of joy. Let us lay our cold child beneath the earth, for there he will .sleep safe, nor shall aught disturb him, for her sou is there, too, among the foxes in the hill, and among the stars above, and in all the singing earth. Who is God, our Lord. So saying, they went out into the night. And the child was cold within their arms, but their hearts were strong with flame. THE ART OF THE CATHEDRALS The work of art is the infallible indication of the inner man, and we can know an age by the edifices and sculptures and paintings which it leaves for the scrutiny of posterity. On the temples of Greece and on their sculptured gods there is imprinted the pagan love of beauty, the essence of which is a precise material perfection. Antithetically the great (iothic cathedrals send their spiritual steeples into the heavens and the truths of an unadul- terated Christianity are carved upon theui and stained on their windows. And some centuries hence when the modern age shall l)e looked at with that all-inclusiveness which the eye focuses on distant objects, its soul shall be reflected in the ugly follies of an errant art. Such is the nature of art, and consequently Maritain can say that even as the trace and image of God appear in His creatures, so the human character is impressed upon the work of art, the full sensitive and spiritual char- acter, not only of the hands but of the whole soul. The medieval soul is easily described. It was Christian; Christ and His Kingdom were accepted as the ultimate in attainment, and the Church as the repository of His word. The medievalists believed and the faith that was in them overflowed and disseminated itself through every labor of their hands whether sacred or profane. But because the art of this period was so Christian, because it accepted willingly, reasonably and gratefully the guidance of the Church, a fallacy has arisen and it is that the artist and his trade were bound and chained by the dictates of Rome. This was the error of the p.seudo-aesthetes of the Renaissance; they did not understand how it was possible for the medieval artist to trust in the judgment of men more learned than himself without becoming servile. Arl (Did Sriiolu.sliri.sm, Jacques Maritain. There was no intellectual humility in them so they did not think of its being in others. And again they did not know that the very laws which the artist of the Middle Ages accepted as his rule of life made the same artist free as the wind, that the volitional subjection to these laws drove him along the road to artistic perfection unhampered by the needless doubts and faults of the irreligious, and finally that this same subjection prevented him from killing art itself, a thing which the Renais- sance almost accomplished by the establish- ment of canons which demanded that the brush or chisel be handled in suchwise and no other. The medieval saw in Christian dogma an influence more perfectively power- ful than any other and he accepted it. Besides the difference of spirit which lay behind the art of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance (which, one might say, includes Modern Art, since the latter is of the same decadent spirit and even more decadent in its productions), there might be held accountable for the glory of the one and the questionable mediocrity of the other their diverse theories of an artist ' s education. With the medieval, art was also a trade. He sweated and strained in an apprenticeship until his master thought him capable of fashioning objects of a beauty commensurate with the worthiness of the House he was to adorn. Art was a means, not an end, and consequently he could not falsely worship art as his chronological suc- cessor did by raising up a profane shrine and offering up pampered acts of a supposititious temperament in revolt against humanity. . nd if there was any thought of a hollow art for art ' s sake doctrine in the medievars mind, good sense killed it before it had a chance to emerge. The one law common to that period but since lost from the artistic statute books was that technique without the proper spiritual impulse was of no value. The master taught it, the pupil practiced it. .51 ' V ) SOB BORRT { . ' ' ' A. Since art cannot become great until it springs from the people and is of them, the ecclesiastical output of beautiful monasteries and churches must be considered as a prelude to medieval art, and as something inferior. But it succeeded in energizing a people already becoming strong; it was the illustrious parent of a greater offspring. It provided an abundant knowledge of art and of faith, a knowledge which was used in the building and in the ornamentation of the cathedral. There is a fancy, now in the second century of its existence, that the popular faith in the Middle Ages could not be as great as is claimed be- cause there was no widespread reading of the Bible. It escapes them utterly that, even if this were so, there are divers ways of preach- ing the Gospel. We are not dependent on tlie Written Word, says a Catholic scholar, for had God intended that Christian life and salvation should depend on the Sacred Scrip- tures and the reading thereof. He most cer- tainly would have provided His Apostles and the nascent Church with a printing press and means of easily and cheaply making paper; for these two are certainly prerequisites for salvation through the use of Sacred Scrip- tures. Contrary to the fancy noted above, the Word was written. It was preached. And It was carved in stone and stained in glass upon the massive cathedrals. In the tympanum above the Virgin ' s Door at Notre Dame of Paris, the medieval sculptor treated of Mary ' s marriage, of her part in the events connected with Christ ' s Nativity, and of the Coronation. At Chartres the parishioners could not miss the story of the Birth, the .Ascension and the Last .Judgment as he ap- proached the three doors leading into the nave. And in one of the rose windows of the same cathedral are found the four evangelists being carried upon the backs of four prophets, signifying that they had sprung from the prophets but were greater and more far- sighted. Every doctrine was portrayed at least once, both allegorically and symbolically, and if the symbolism which they used is lieyond the comprehension of our minds we must remember that the Christian of that period lived in an atmosphere of religion and consequently was more familiar with the truths of the Faith than we, despite the fact that the printed page is claimed to give us a closer proximity. The cathedrals were indeed the Bibles of the Poor, tlie reading uf which was free of the dangers of self-interpretation which began with Luther and his reformation. If the profound knowledge of the faith which is on the cathedral is a mark distinctive of the period, it is accompanied by a note which is equally distinctive, that of humor. One is the complement of the other; as incomplete substances they inform each other and give us the essence of medieval Christianity, the synthesis of laughter and learning. You will never find such a composition in the Parthe- non, for the Greeks were too absorbed in producing a materially perfect architecture oppressed by fatalism. Dissoluteness in their gods they rewarded with reverence and sculp- tural perfection, whereas if they had possessed but a particle of that most human of qualities tliey would certainly have taken the oppor- tunity of making hideous that which was hideous. Modern Art goes a step further than the Greek; it lacks both elements. Not that it has been afraid to produce hideous things, for there are many of them, but such productions were motivated by a misconcep- tion of the beautiful rather than by a sense of humor. The medieval alone possessed both. Into the representations of God, of Mary and of the saintly horde he put all the sublimity of which he was capable. And in representing the devil he gave vent to his humor. He made an ugly monster leer at us from the parapet and he made him look out from under the corbel with a grin on his face that almost stretched from one horn to the other. A fantastic imp peers forth from an unsuspecting piece of leaf work, or a goblin pokes his head over the shoulder of saint, obviously express- ing the success of the saint in putting Satan behind him. Derisive devils and grotesque devils; the medieval who sculptured them realized that at least this once he had the devil at his mercy and he made the most of it. In the general condemnation of things medieval, the pitiful logician of the Renais- sance did not forget to include the cathedrals. He passed them daily and consciously forced himself to look the other way that he might not feel himself drawn to acknowledge the beauty which he had denied. He was afraid of the fate of Goethe, who had been unable to withstand the splendor of Strasbourg and had said afterwards, โ but here I seemed sud- = ) SOB GORKI ( denly to see a new revelation; what had been objectionable appeared admirable, and the perception of beauty in all its attractiveness was impressed on my soul. The testimony of Chartres and Rheims and all the other cathedrals destroyed the case which had been built up against Gothic architecture, and today the ignorant and superstitious mantle which the intellectual of the Renaissance attempted to place on the shoulders of the medieval mason and his fellow artists is being returned to its rightful owner. The cathedral being the House of God was the house of Art. The medievals would not think of offering to Him that which had not been fashioned with all the careful perfection of their finite ability. So we find painting and sculpture, stained glass and iron-work, and all the allied arts making up the unity of the cathedral, yet each one with a unity and perfection of its own. In the most obscure corners, in the highest part of the steeple, and in the very foundation itself, are works of art which have been labored over with the same care as that which characterizes the portail. And the staining of glass was lifted from the commonplace thing it was in the East and made into the beautiful art which a poet of our day sings of in a sonnet: A craftsman once made pilgrimage for grace To limn with golden leaf and azure stain Fair saints around a central crimson pane Whence Christ should light an abbey ' s pil- lared space; And faring homeward, humbly sought the place Beside the Rood where he had prayed in vain For power to show the doubting world again The quiet beauty of a thorn-crowned Face. But as he looked, lo, all his soul had dreamed Flamed through the glass from aisle to empty choir In colors that no earthly artist knows; And in the East where waxen tapers gleamed Wrought by an angel from his hearts deep fire, Christ shone within the window ' s perfect rose. The art of the Middle Ages is commentable without end by reason of its very basis. Since that which it expressed was of an infinite character, it would ever be seeking a per- fection to which it could only aspire. It would always contain that note of striving, for, unlike the Greek, it could never be satis- fied unless on dying the architect was allowed to build in heaven with spiritual stones. Religion has ever been in back of great art. Lack of it is the cause of the artistic degen- eracy which a Boston critic is so frequently bewailing and for which a remedy is being sought by a few honest artists. In their despair they have sought to copy Gothic, knowing full well that Gothic is not a mere technical model but an intangible spiritual tiling expressed, as it were, by matter. They would smother that essentially decadent Renaissance, with its own hideous offspring, the art for art ' s sake doctrine, the pursuit of what is novel, vacuous cubism and its ilk. And the wise man concentrates on the stone or canvas before him, while waiting, not optimistically but patiently, for the only remedy possible, the return of the world to Christianity. There is a tradition slowly growing in the literary taverns of the world that is, one can hardly doubt, strongly, consciously Catholic. It is a regrowth of the spirit that six centuries ago breathed the religious fire into the splendors of medieval art. In the intervening years that spiritual beauty may have become withered but not uprooted. During those centuries we have had Byron and Keats and Shelley and Wordsworth and Tennyson, and they have had few peers in lyric poetry. However, they wrote a purely lay literature. PAUL CLAUDEL which, although singularly beautiful in ex- pression, is woefully unspiritual in content. By this, we mean that the world of which they sang and the images which they conceived arc vestiges of God and when their lyrics lack the moral force of that concept they (the lyrics) must be re-ranked accordingly. The Protestant norm which placed them so high is suffering decay but it lived for many cen- turies, during which poetry concerned itself with Beauty and left Truth forgotten. ) SOB eoRRi r In the slow germination of Catholic con- sciousness, Paul Claudel, mystic dramatist, has rekindled, in a personal way, the spiritual fire that was the heart of the middle ages. In writing of him, I honestly feel that the strength and depth of his work cannot be compassed โ only suggested. My task is to write neither an essay nor a study, merely the impressions that his poetry leaves upon me โ in the hope that perhaps, you, too, may find a fellowship with essence. ' It maj ' easily have happened that Claudel should have written the truthless lay liter- ature of the Puritans, Romanticists, or Victorians. In his early youth when the lures of religious free thinking and doubts of God make miserable the minds of mo.st youth, Claudel ' s struggle was even more bitter. After many hours in the Cathedral of Notre Dame, the inadequacy of Atheism gave way to the reassurance of the religion of Rome. In one of his poems he says: I remember the darkness when we two were face to face those gloomy afternoons in Notre Dame, I, all alone below there, lit up the face of the great bronze Christ, with a two penny, half penny taper. All men were then against us, science and reason, and I replied nothing, only the faith was in me! It seems rather strange that this spiritual change should have come about in Notre Dame, the remnant of french medievalism. It is the embodiment of the Catholic tra- ditions, even as the drama of Claudet is the summation of the religious strength of those traditions. In his work the symbolism and the spirit and the art which characterized those ages has been brought back and lives again. For this reason those who read and are interested in literature have heard the name of Paul Claudel like a voice from an age that knew great art and Catholic art to be synonymous. Space does not permit tiiat we treat him at length, so we shall take The Hostage and The Tidings Brought to Mary as representative of his work. The Hostage concerns the bitter struggle of Sygne de Confontaine and her cousin, George, to foil the attempts of Napoleon in his desire to destroy French monarchy and Catholicism. The antagonist is Baron Turelure, an uncouth peasant, one of the many godless boors who was carried into power with the backwash of the successful Revolution. He is a former servant of Sygne ' s; he has guillotined her father and mother and is the image of all she detests and despises. Father Badilon acts only as the in.strument b.y which Sygne is led to her great sacrifice. The Hostage itself is a drama of thought in which the theme of Christian resignation is carried ovit to a ruthless martyrdom. It is a conflict of the noble against the plebian, of monarchy with its traditions of mutual respect again.st democracy with its stultifying equality; but principally, it is the bitter doctrine of the Nazarene embodied in the character of Sygne de Confontaine. Claudel ' s idea of Catholicism should in part quiet the storm of controversy that arose over tlie dramatic inception of this brutal concept. In a letter written some years back, he said, The demands of Christianity, apparently excessive and unreasonable, are the only ones after all which are really proportionate to our strength and reason. They appeal to the whole intelligence, will and feelings; they compel us to be in a permanent state of mobil- ization against passion and easy doubts and for this war we are not overendowed with all our faculties. Perhaps with this in mind the struggle will be more vivid and her decision less strange. The action is effectively set during a critical period in French history, when the forces of Napoleon were trapped in the Russian snows. The power at home is in the hands of the boldest adventurer who dares seize the vacant throne. Despoiled of their ancestral estate Synge and George have just now completed their work of bringing together again the lands that Bonaparte had flung to his fol- lowers. As the play opens, the Pope is concealed in one of the hidden rooms of the abbey โ he is the hostage in whose hands is tlie power for which all forces contend. In the first scene, one of intense simplicity, the friendship of Sygne and George is drawn by the intimacy of their words. They have not seen each other for many days, so George relates to her how his two children, the only inheritors of their estate, have died of the SOB GORKT { wr ' plague and how his influence with the king has waned because his wife liad died. Here are the first indications of the impending ruin and it is this continual thread of tragedy and the poignant use of tragic irony that re- minds us much of the Greek drama. Sygne makes a solemn vow to George that she will work forever with him to preserve the estate and will never marry another โ for he is all that is left to her now, the last and chief of her people. Baron Turelure, aware of the opportunity tlie Pope ' s hidden presence in Sygne ' s hou.se gives to him, goes there and tells her he knows of the Pope ' s presence. They engage in a dramatic duel of words until he tells her that if .she will consent to marry him the Pope may be freed; if not, the forces of Napoleon may again imprison him until death. He departs leaving Synge interested not at all, except that she must in some other way save him. Father Badilon comes upon the scene and Sygne lightly โ but the lightness makes the coming tragedy more deep โ explains to him the Baron ' s proposal. They disagree and the scene is worked up to a gripping intensity until Badilon says; Sygne, save the Holy Father. Sygne; But not at this price, I say no! I will not marry Toussaint Turelure. God gave me my life and I am ready to give it back; but my name is mj ' own! Father Badilon; ' ion will betray your God instead. Sygne; Ah, I am deaf and hear not. I am a woman and not a nun. And if God loves my love for Him, in His turn under.stand my hatred, which rises like my love from the depths of my heart โ And now I must call him my husband, must accept him and offer him my cheek. But that I refuse, I say, no, even if God Incarnate should exact it of me! But Badilon, more an ecclesiastic than a religious, appeals to her honor, her pride in her ancestry, her love of God; he restrains her bitterness and so plays upon her passions until she succumbs. She, of a long Catholic nobility, will marry Baron Toussaint Ture- lure, the godless anarchist, the murderer of her father and mother; she will give to him all the lands and estates which she had gathered together; she will renounce her vow to George, she last of all will betray him and she will forsake her heritage that the representative of her God may be saved. All the forces of church and state struggled to crush her and her part has been accom- plished โ yet Claudel relentlessly bludgeons our aesthetic senses until we unsuspectingly awake breathing in a purer air. Sygne ' s .spirit is broken and the well-springs of her nobility that gave to her life its deep beauty are dried up. Alas, there is no more grief for me, I am cut off from tears. For me all fresh .suffering heaped upon the old is as consolation. She is immovable toward her husband and will not give to her sacrifice the Christian seal of forgiveness. She looks upon her child, by Turelure, as an imposter; death alone matters to her now. But to complete their purpose, Sygne persuaded George to turn over all their possessions to the child that the king may be restored to France โ a condition of Turelure ' s. George finally consents but determines that for this act Turelure shall die. On that day he and the Baron duel โ but Sygne, eager to die anyway, springs into the path of the bullet intended for her husband. Here again is a superb bit of irony. Turelure, an ignorant boor to the end, misunderstands Sygne ' s mo- tives in receiving the bullet and grimly enough compares himself, whom she despises, with George, whom she still loves. You save my life at the price of your own! O mystery of conjugal love! O devotion worthy of antiquity! What is a brother to you compared with the husband you have chosen. ' For Sygne all is crushed out to the last drop, the world has now no need of her, for there will no longer be God nor master and she dies as the curtain falls. Here, if ever, is the pure doctrine of the carpenter ' s son carried out through scenes of startling intensity. The characters may be ruthlessly beaten and the action brutal to those who prefer the words of Christ in more diluted form, but in reality they are only true, real and powerfully drawn. If the demands Claudel makes of the characters are heavy, so, too, are the demands of God. Perhaps it is that the drama of our day has de- SOB mmi r clined into a soft and stupid beauty; a beauty that fears to offend and a depth that plays upon the surface. If it has, we may be glad that this literary movement has begun and that sentimentalism will eventually give way to a stronger and more permanent Cath- olic beauty. Claudel himself expresses this concept โ the underlying motive of all great drama when he says: Let me be as a sower of solitude And let him who hears my voice return home troubled and heavy. Before we consider The Tidings Brought to Mary, it might be of advantage to understand what is connoted by mysticism in the work of Claudel. It is not, of course, some mysterious quality or ethereal strain in his drama which we can only vaguely comprehend. Rather it is an intimate understanding between the soul of man and God; a soul that sees in the world vestiges of God, not being deluded as the Pantheist into confusing what is of God and what is God. Thus, the mysticism of Francis of Assisi found expression in his conversing with the birds and animals as brothers. It was only that he felt a comradeship be- tween himself and the.se creatures of God because they ivere the creatures of God. ( laudel ' s expression of it is in the field of the drama, and in the sense that his work gives expression to that understanding of and inti- macy with the Divine Mind it is mysticism โ or for that matter real Catholicism. I believe that that is the seal of the true Catholic, whether acolyte or Pope, they both are at heart mystics. And witb Claudel, in the inner soul of him we find the dramatic genius that knows the mystic rapture. We have called Thr Hostage a powerful drama of Catholic thought, let us .say The Tidings Brought to Mary attains the lyric depth of Catholicism. If it has not the brutal vividness of the former it approaches nearer to the serenity of my.stic beauty. Yet it is much more discouraging to try to convey the tone of this play for in its entirety and in every detail it is breath-taking. It is a peculiar and altogether unusual blending of mysticism and realism. Undoubtedly Clau- del ' s career has given him that penetrating insight into characters that he expresses so powerfully. He does not present his per- sonae as the photographer; rather he rep- resents them as the artist. The one merely catches the outline, the other interprets the substance. O ' Neil, who approaches nearest to Claudel, seizes upon one pha.se of his char- acters and with persuasive technique, con- structs an almost convincing drama. But Claudel, like Conrad in the novel, views his personae in every phase, not as they seem to be but as they are. He plunges into and probes the soul โ and that is true realism โ it is the seal of genius. In brief. The Tidings Brought to Mary is the story of a young girl, Violaine, who passes through physical decadence to spiritual glory. Pierre de Craon, her fiery lover, is a builder of cathedrals; the sower of steeple filled with the religious enthusiasm of the medievalist. Anne Vercors, the father of Violaine and Mara, is the unhappy com- bination of a dutiful yet terribly thoughtless and inconsiderate father. Jacques Hury is a true son of the soil, earthly, sincere, but as blind as the earth that he ploughs. It is a distinctive feature of Claudel ' s work that he never overdraws a character โ he is very fair in his treatment of all. There are no pointed phrases (such as the oft-repeated honest lago in Othello), but perhaps we need none to drive home the malignancy of Mara, Violaine ' s sister. She is the womanly incar- nation of diabolical meanness, inconsider- ation and blindness to true values โ yet withal she is disconcertingly true to life. She has been made sour as the wild cherry by jeal- ousies and fancied injuries, yet she can sin- cerely say to Violaine: I know that my heart is too hard, Violaine, and I am sorry for it. I wish I could be different. ' In Violaine has been imprisoned the character of the womanly mystic. She can look at the world but she can look through it, too, and those pettinesses which warp Mara s view she can see in their proper sphere. But more of Violaine anon, we must to the play. In the prologue Pierre and Violaine con- verse about her coming marriage to Jacques Hury, by her father ' s will, even though she loves Pierre. But night is merging into dawn and Pierre mounts his black horse, bends over to kiss Violaine ' s hand and she, because Pierre was so sad, and she, she was so happy, kissed him on the mouth. With this act. 5) SOB BORKI Aโ ' . the germ that eats away the flesh, which ap- peared on Pierre the night he resultlessly for- got his spiritual instincts, was passed on to Violaine. Jacques hears of this from Mara, and his honeyed words of love turn to violent abuse. Thinking Violaine unfaithful, he becomes wedded to Mara, which she, of course, had intended from the beginning. On her wedding day the words of her mother are in Mara ' s ears, One ' s own sorrow is nothing, but the sorrow one has caused to others makes bitter the bread in the mouth. Eight years intervene, and Mara carrying under her winter cloak the cold body of the dead baby, Aubaine, comes to Violaine, the leper, living among the rocks of Geyn. It is Christmas Eve, snow is falling, covering the road over which the victorious Joan of Arc is returning to Rheims, as Mara meets Violaine. Violaine, .no longer the beautiful young girl of Monsanvierge, is wearing a double veil to cover her fleshless face. They both disappear into the forest leaving their tracks upon the snow, until they come to the cave of Violaine among the white sandstone rocks. And with this begins a scene so amazingly beautiful that it will live until there is no longer any reader. It blends the liturgical splendour of the Gregorian chants, the rugged beauty of the natural setting and a gripping contrast in the characters of Mara and Violaine. Mara is still the primitively jealous woman; spiteful and selfish to the core. Even though she has come to her saintly (and consequently despicable) sister in the wild hope that she may by the grace of God restore her baby to her, yet she cannot restrain her happiness at what is to her, Violaine ' s degradation. She frequently men- tions Jacques ' love for her, and taunts her about her affliction or her saintliness, but her spitefulness meets only the calm assurance of one who sees, veiledly the lumen gloriae. Mara: Yes, we are happy, Jacques loves me as I love him. Violaine: God be praised . . . Mara: It is easy to be a saint when lep- rosy helps us. Violaine: I do not know, not being one. Mara: AVe see God ' s first installment (leprosy). Violaine: I have faith in God who has ordained my destiny. Mara: Who would love a leper woman? Violaine: My heart is pure. Mara: Now I am happy with Jacques. Violaine: Peace be unto you! Mara: No, no, no, you shall not trick me with your nimnish rigmaroles. Violaine: Poor Mara! Mara pleads with Violaine to give back to her alive her black-eyed Aubaine, becau.se Jacques does not know yet that she is dead. Violaine protests again and once again that she cannot blow on the mountain and cast it into the sea. But she gave to Mara the book of the Christmas service to read and while she reads the bells ringing in the distance are borne to them on the winds. And a voice like that of a child ' s chants a hymn of praise to the Virgin Mother of Bethlehem and a choir responds in the crescendos and descre- scendos of the Gregorian. Violaine cries out, Mara, a little child is born to us on Christ- mas. Mara seizes the warm body of her infant, Aubaine. Mara: It lives. Violaine: Aubaine, it is I, dost thou know me? {Silence โ then Mara cries out) : What does this mean? Its eyes were black and now they are blue like yours. Ah! And what ' s this drop of milk I see on its lips? (Silence โ and the act ends) Perhaps much of the striking beauty of the scene has been lost, but I hope that what it might really be, has at least been suggested. It would be but ordinary now for Mara to forget her natural baseness and become reconciled with Violaine โ but Claudel is never ordinary. He is more interested in the human impulses of the soul rather than in the demands of the audience. One might say - ) SOB SORKI . ' ' ' . that he is primarily a humorist, and then per- haps a dramatist โ his characters never act; they are. They live in every word they speak and when the play is done we feel that we have seen life dramatically compressed, not a drama of compressed lives. And so Mara, made more jealous than ever by Violaine by this evidence of her saintly power, took her by the hand and led her back through the forest. As she approached the road where great cartloads of sand were standing, she slipped the bolt and the falling avalanche smothered the unsuspecting and sightless Violaine. Pierre finds the half- hidden body and recognizing the withered Violaine, carries her to her home in the lands of Combernon. She returns to consciousness only to speak to Pierre and Jacques: How beautiful it is to live! And how great is the glory of God! But how good it is to die too! When all is really ended and over us Spreads little by little, the darkness. As of a deep shade. Pierre bears the lifeless fra me to the con- vent in the hill country of Monsanvierge where the nuns will prepare her funeral dress โ the while Violaine garbs herself in the dress fashioned by Divine hands. Mara later comes upon the disconsolate Pierre, Jacques and her father, and confesses how happy she is now that Violaine has gone and Jacques will be hers alone. But Jacques now sees for the first time the real beauty of Violaine; he k nows that the kiss to Pierre was one of sym ' pathy and, alas for Mara, he sees in her the perverted, jealous woman of primitive selfish- nes.s โ and his love turns to loathing. Sincere but blind, he lost because he never loved enough; her father because his love was born of blindness; but Pierre never lost because the love of Violaine was with him as a sower of steeples in the cathedrals of God, and he found in her the stone to grace the towers, where he had distilled the sunlight in the arches : I have found the stone I sought, not quarried by iron but closer grained than a grind stone. As the fragile teeth of the little justitia serve as a foundation for my great structure So also at the summit in the wide sky I shall set this other Justice, Violaine, the blind, in the sight of everybody. And her eyes blindfolded, that seeing not, she may the better hear The sounds of the city and the fields and man ' s voice at the same time with the voice of God For she is Justice herself who listens and conceives in her heart the perfect harmony. There is much more that might be said but we must conclude with a final word. It might be noted that once we referred to Claudel ' s work as having the gripping sim- plicity of the Greek drama; or that his phrases had the rolling strength of the Bible ' s divine poetry; that in each detail he recap- tured the mystic splendour of medievalism and that he is modern in portraying natural scenes of staggering beauty. And in this manner, I think, we have stumbled on the genius of Claudel, in that he has mustered the beauty of every age and interpreted it in the living drama, centered about Catholic Truth. And this was our first tenet, that really great literature expresses Truth with a beauty sat- isfyingly commensurate with the greatness of the concept โ and that the lay literature of the past centuries must sufi er immeasurably in the presence of this literature of true realism that sees the world and people in their essence. Perhaps this work has been over-long but I hardly think that the man could have even been suggested in a shorter one โ in any event I hope it has not been tiresome. With more time the concepts might have been less roughly expressed, but style, expression, length, or concepts matter little if you are persuaded to read his works. ) SOB SORRI C THE SOWER OF STEEPLES Pierre walked flown the steps of the bishop ' s house and went quickly through the narrow streets to the east side of the town where Lianne lived. He had nothing definite to tell her as he had hoped to have when he last saw her. In fact, he had come very close to bringing back news that they could not be married yet because he had lost the contract. Pierre remembered how his competitor, Vitry, with a patronizing attempt at magnanimity, had conceded that he, Pierre, was remarkably endowed but added โ and nearly convinced the bishop โ that his age would most likely lead him to overlook the minor details which the older eye would take care of since it would be free from the rashness of an errant enthu- siasm. And it was only because Pierre told the bishop about Vitry s breaking one con- tract which he had made to build the Church of the Virgin that the day wasn ' t lost. Lianne had asked him not to use that point against Vitry, and he had given his word. But it had slipped out and Pierre wondered if she would realize how uuconscious and unrestrainable it was. Lianne ' s father was just going out when he reached the house. Come in, Pierre, said Gautheron. And how did the afternoon ' s business go? But wait a minute, he added, as the other sat down, I ' ll get Lianne and you 11 have to go through the story only once. He went out and Pierre covild hear him calling Lianne. She was always in the garden, moving up and down the flagstone walks, clipping leaves prematurely turned brown, pulling a vagrant weed, or digging the turf around a bush which she was cultivating that its leaves might add a green touch to the bouquets for the abbey chapel. And she would be alone. She never let anyone help her. Pierre put his hand to his ear and thought of the time when he had stooped to remove a piece of paper from among the anemones and she, with a gentle firmness, had grasped him by the ear and leading him to a stone bench made him sit there like a punished child until she had finished. It was a pleasant chastisement, it โ Something soft hit Pierre in the face. A rose for the mason of CoutancesI cried a voice, and Lianne entered with her arms full of flowers. What news, Pierre? ' Hello, Lianne. There ' s no news for you. The bishop has postponed his decision. He told the story, omitting the part where he had forgotten about his promise to Lianne. He ' d wait till the father left. When he finished Gautheron couldn ' t contain himself; he saw nothing but success, and Lianne thought so, too. But, Pierre, she asked, what made him change his mind so suddenly? Wasn ' t there any reason? What difference does that make? replied Gautheron, before Pierre could answer. Vitry didn ' t get the contract, and now he isn ' t likely to. But how about Vitry, Pierre? Did he take it badly? Well โ no. Apparently it didn ' t ruffle him, but I think it got under his skin just the same. I should think it would. If I saw such a contract slipping out of my hands I don ' t know what I ' d do. If you ' ll excuse me, Pierre, he said, getting up from his chair, I ' ll be on my way now I ' ve heard the news. He left. And even as he did Lianne turned to Pierre and said, Out with it, Pierre. There was a reason, wasn ' t there? Yes โ he hesitated โ the broken con- tract. Vou didn ' t It came out before I thought, Lianne. I saw myself losing out. And I simply had to complete what my father had gone so far in doing before he died. And only the steeples left to do. I forgot everything else, Lianne โ everything. Lianne smiled sadly. Poor Pierre! she said. Always forgetting himself and losing his head. But she was not angry. And when a week later he had received the contract from the bishop she was more pleased than anyone. Yet she would not marry him because, as she said, there was a clause by which he was denied the entire work. He must complete the transept tower satisfactorily before he SOBCaRRir would be commissioned to build the two main towers on the fagade of the cathedral. And it must be done in two years. Pierre did not know why Lianne would not marry him; he was practically sure of the rest of the job. That was no reason that she gave. He could give just as much attention to the transept tower whether he were married or not. But he had to submit. Within a short time the builder ' s yard was teeming with industry. Wagons which the peasants used on their farms were now moving in and out the gates, bringing rock from the mountain quarry or going back for more. And other men trimmed with hammers the rocks which were dumped in the yard. Scaffolding was erected and Pierre stood by the workmen as they laid the first stones of the steeple. He was busy these days; he thought of nothing but his work. There was more than one night that he slept in the yard in order to get an early start the next morning. And at noontime he sat on the bank of the Soulle eating from a lunch packet like any other workman; between bites he talked with his assistants. Or he would be rushing from scaffolding to yard or yard to scaffolding keeping everything under his supervision, and trusting nothing to his assistants. The latter were continually firing questions at him, and he gave them back a quick answer. Pierre drove the men. A little too much .sometimes. And he did not bother to restrain himself when he saw them do something wrong. As in the case of Bridon who was carrying imperfect rocks to the steeple. ' ' Betel Cochonl he cried, angrily, Fool, would you have it topple down on us? Go home, Bridon โ don ' t come back for three days. And have your wife show you what kind of rocks are used for steeples. Lianne warned him once. The wives of the workmen came to her with stories. The men liked Pierre, but he was hard some- times, and some of them were becoming sullen. Pierre passed these things off lightly. They happened frequently, he told Lianne; the men grew displeased, but they did their work. Pierre ' s head was in the clouds these days; a few more months and the steeple would be finished. He would get the remainder of the contract. But if he was rejoicing over his work, Lianne was worrying. And it was not long before she had to speak to him again. Pierre, won ' t you please notice what is going on about you. ' ' You cannot drive your men so hard without their resenting it. Old Madame Patou came to me again the other day with a story about her Jean. You hit him for almost no reason at all. They ' re human beings, Pierre, they won ' t stand it. You must check yourself. You have to be hard with them some- times. I know I shouldn ' t have hit him. Just the same he shouldn ' t have misplaced mj ' measuring rod. But it all ends there. They know that nothing is meant by it. It doesn ' t end there, Pierre. Bridons wife said that Jacques Vitry was at the builder ' s yard twice last week when you were at Rheims consulting the master-builder. He wasn ' t merely looking at the steeple. He knows that you have had trouble with the men. Even as before her words made little, if any, impression. Pierre went about his work. He did try to keep his temper with the men and he succeeded somewhat. But Lianne was always fearful. She spent most of her time in the garden, but it never seemed to look as pleasing of late. She grew tired of pulling weeds all the time, and brown leaves were continually falling among the flowers. So she sat on the stone bench and thought of what she should do and never did. Her father had begun to help with the garden, and she did not object. She liked his company. It gave her a chance to talk about the late flowers โ and about Pierre. Father, don ' t you think that Pierre is not watchful enough.? I told him twice about Vitry ' s stirring up trouble among the men and he doesn ' t pay any attention. Or he just says, ' I ' ll watch out. ' You don ' t have to worry about him. All he has to do is get other men in the place of the trouble-makers. But he doesn ' t even know that there are trouble-makers. . nd he doesn ' t seem to care. Stop worrying, Lianne. He is no child. God gave him eyes and ears and he knows what ' s going on about him. But get to work on your flowers, and don ' t let yourself become gloomy just because it ' s a gray day. SOB eOREI { A- ' ' ' . Lianne was silent. Gautheron left her then to answer the door. Perhaps her father was right. The weather was making her see things too gloomily. Nothing would happen to Pierre; it couldn ' t. Hadn ' t he begun the steeple on the Feast of the Holy Family? And he had learned his trade well. His father had been one of the most accomplished master-builders of his t ime. Besides, the builder at Rheims had gone over Pierre ' s plans and declared them to be as good as if not superior to his father ' s. There was a rumbling noise in the west. Thunder? But it was not the sort of day for that; just a dull gray day on which every- thing assumed the same lifeless tone. The men would keep working despite the thunder; indeed it would have to storm badly before Pierre would let them off. Poor Pierre! Missing little things because his mind was fixed zealously on the one big thing, the com- pletion of the steeple. Gautheron came back with the visitor. Here ' s Madame Dismal again! he cried to Lianne from the doorway. The good wife Bridon has come to regale you with more tales of the evil-doers of Coutances, the dire, enemies of Pierre de Vaugirard. Entrez Mudume Miserel And you. Monsieur, said Bridon ' s wife, do you think we can always blindly walk through life without misfortune? If a thiev- ing wretch of the Rue des Morts planted the good steel in your belly, would you shout ' friend! comrade! ' with your last breath? Bah! you are as blind and foolish as Pierre! A health to you, Madame. But be done with these words of wisdom and turn to some- thing which more becomes that simple mouth of yours. Father! Madame! broke in Lianne. Oh, you two! Will you never stop quarrel- ing? You have a scoundrel for a father, Lianne. Never will he let me tell my story. You are unkind, Madame, said Gantli- eron. Tell your story by all means. Madame Bridon sat down on the bench beside Lianne, and Gautheron brought a stool from the house for him.self . It ' s Vitry again, she began violently. Bridon says that he was waiting outside the builders ' yard the other day for Patou, and when Patou came out they both slunk away like a pair of spies. Possessed by the devil, both of them, said Gautheron. No, only Patou; Vitry is the devil. But Patou was different yesterday. He asked Bridon to go over to his house, he needed his help on something. And when they got there he told about Vitrj-. Gautheron sat with a slight smile on his lips as if to tell her to make the story exciting. Vitry had worked up Patou and several others that Pierre hit and he got them to use slime instead of cement. They ' ve been doing it for a month now. Lianne sat taut. Her face froze with fear. Then she heard her father say scornfully: Bad, Madame, bad. The .story showed no imagination at all. Don ' t you think Pierre would have noticed it? But they did it when he was at Rheims, and as soon as he came back they used cement again. He inspects the work frequently. He wouldn ' t have missed it. But he could โ he did. Bridon says โ Bridon says, always Bridon says. I suppo.se he ' d be hard put to recognize his story as the one you told us. Madame Bridon turned to Lianne. I hope you at least, Lianne, will see that all this is true. To the word it is what Bridon heard from Patou. Lianne sat with a bewildered look on her face. I don ' t know what to think, Madame. At one time it seems to me that Pierre must know all about this, and later I think he sees nothing. And he and father chide me for useless worrying. Pay no attention to them. Lianne. All men are fools, and you happen to know two of the biggest. Gautheron bowed and murnmred, Madame. Monsieur, do try to lose a bit of your stupidity and help Pierre lose his. The story was true. You could at least look into it. It ' s the last one I ' ll bother you with. Well โ SOB mmm . โ ย ' . I have to go home now and get Hri .loii s supper. Goodbye, Lianne. Goodbye, Mon- sieur. Goodbye, Madame, Lianne said. I ' ll accompany you, Madame, offered Gautheron. It gets dark quickly these nights and a beautiful woman such as you should not be abroad all alone. The two left, and Lianne could hear them quarreling on their way down the street. Madame Bridon ' s story came back to her. Slime and cement โ and for a month. It it were true, the steeple would topple any day. Oh, that it were completed and that Pierre could rest in the knowledge that he would be commissioned to build the two towers on the fa ' ade and consequently keep the entire cathedral in the hands of the Maison de Vau- girard. But it must be as her father said. If there was anything wrong Pierre would notice it. Lianne began to feel the cold dampness of the place so she took up her work among the flowers again. She went to the little shed where the implements were kept and took out a hoe. The flowers needed more soil around them for a frost might set in on one of these cold, damp nights and even though it wouldn ' t be a severe one it might possibly nip them and start them withering. And they must be kept alive for another month in order that the abbey chapel might be decked out for the Feast of the Rosary. She got down on her knees and with her hand piled the loose dirt about a drooping flower. The soil was chilled. Like the hand ol her mother on the death bed a long time ago. In a short time the earth also would be frozen in death. She heard the door at the front of the house shut. Her father back so soon? He couldn ' t have conducted Madame Bridon all the waj ' home then. Maybe they met Bridon. Lianne w ' as just about to call out when she saw the figure in the doorway. Pierre! Pierre said notliing. He took a few steps and sat down on the bench. Lianne ran to him and grasped him by the arm. What is it, Pierre? Tell me! He gave no answer. The steeple โ it is destroyed, sobbed Lianne. Pierre nodded and slie went on. I knew it wasn ' t thunder I heard. But I didn ' t want to believe it โ and even when Madame Bridon told us I didn ' t believe it then either. Pierre looked up slowly. Madame Bridon told you? She said Patou and the others u.sed .slime in.stead of cement. Vitry urged them to it. It was when you were at Rheims last. Patou! cried Pierre, angrily. I wasn ' t severe enough with him. I should have dismissed him altogether. No โ no, Pierre! You were too severe โ too harsh. He couldn ' t have done it if I had let him go. But you hit him. Pierre. He wouldn ' t have done it otherwise. It was you, Pierre. But I tell youโ He broke off. He seemed to see for the first time how he had treated his men. It had been his own fault. And now there was nothing to be done. The cathedral would be finished by ' Vitry because Pierre had been cruel and blind. I shall have to start all over again now โ even as a driver of the wagons in which they carry stones. It will be two years at least before I ' ll be a master builder again. And it is a long time to wait, Lianne. Ah, but it is only two years, Pierre. And you will be a better one then.
