Whether it has been our good fortune to witness this panacea of strange w o R events with the impartial attitude of a student, will remain unknown. We cannot compare or contrast but only feel. Certainly we do know that, around us, there is a noticeable tendency to sever the necessary bonds of Christian faith and morality. The precepts of sodless men have found their way into every field of human endeavour. Their effects are witnessed in the lowering of personal responsibility, in the disregard of the sacredness of contracts, in the vicious attacks on marriage, family life and the Christian ideal of purity. To combat these, there must be crusaders of a new century. Catholic men trained in theology and philosophy, who, knowing these tendencies, can strive to remedy them. Only those who have a proclivity for applying to reality the theory of Catholic Action, — who are not tainted with the false ideals of a confused world, — can reach out and stem the tide of destruction. Thus we have used as our theme one which can be paralleled with our lives as students and can remind us of the means to a desired end. It unites as a whole, our divisions and serves as an inspiration to us, leaving forever the protecting influences of hands steadier than ours. We know it will be our reward to see once more a pure climbing sun enlighten the world with the gold light of truth. It will be ours after we have guided a small band of modern warriors to a conquest brought about by the applcation of Christian learning to daily practices, — by forwarding Catholic Action.

REV. LOUIS J. GALLAGHER, S.J ES I DENT During the last four years, many steps forward have been taken by Boston College. Most of these can be directly attributed to the ambition and untiring zeal of one man, the Rev. Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., who, in 1931, took over the presidency of Boston College. Without seeming to detract in any way from the work of his predecessors, we can truly say that, to Father Gallagher, this college of ours owes a great debt, and we of 1935 are proud to be the first class to have been under his guidance through- out our stay here at the Heights. H U B R R The task of stepping in to fill a vacancy left by tfie death of another, is not always of the easiest. Yet this was the task assigned to Father Friary when he was appointed Dean of the College to succeed Father Mchlugh. FHis new work called for a diversity of talents and a special ability for plunging into strange work and carrying it on successfully. How well he has accomplished this we know, for we, as the graduating class, have been especially under his guidance. FHis zeal in this new field was paralleled only by his ardor in his work as Freshman Dean. To him was assigned a task, he completed it; to him was given more honor, he showed himself deserving of it; to him belonged the duty of keeping the Boston College standards high, he carried out this duty, but more than that, he strove to raise them higher, and succeeded. Well could this honor serve as a fitting climax to the career of a Jesuit, both friend and educator. REV. WALTER F. FRIARY, S.J. Dean of the College o o N O wncfzuBmBuiM FACULTY REV. PATRICK J.

LIDDELL Senior Class President Responsibility has always been avoided by the majority of men. Perhaps they are not capable of shoulderins the heavy burdens that may be laid upon them; perhaps they are unwilling to assume the task of acting in the name of others. At any rate, those who hold such positions are seldom envied. The greatest executive position in a body is that of president. He is the representative of the group in all affairs, and must assume the task of governing its members both wisely and well. For this reason, he must be one in whom the body can place the utmost confidence. Such is the office of president in our class. FHe is our representative, our governor, and is the one upon whom we place responsibility for all undertakings. The success or failure of any class affair depends largely upon him. hie must also act as our business representative, always caring for the best interests of the class as a whole. Therefore, his talents must be varied, and he must have the ability to carry out all the assignments. Since he was to act in our names, he had to be one in whom we could have implicit trust. One who could successfully conform to all these qualifications is ordinarily hard to discover. However, we found such a man in our midst; he became our president, and the manner in which he governed the class, and the success with which our class functions were attended is a tribute to his ability and zeal. The class of 1935 owes much to the man who, for three years has been its chief officer, our president . . . Francis R. Liddell. 23 o N O SENIOR O F F C E R S JOSEPH F. CURRAN JOSEPH G.

Introducing Bob Adams, who, for four years has been busy banishing shadows of gloom from amongst us. We will long remember his facile method of deal- ing with our adversaries in Philosophy and Psy- chology, his neat presentation of difficulties, and his still neater disposal of them, hlis ability, however, extended farther,- it went to the field of dramatics, music, and debating, hie was a speaker of note and also served the Fulton in the capacity of manager, his efforts in securing inter-collegiate debates earning for him the thanks of that organization, hlis perform- ances in Othello and hiamlet ' showed that there was a spark of dramatic genius beneath that calm demeanor. The Glee Club also numbered him among its basses for the past four years, hlis other great in- terest was in airplanes, hlow he would gaze at a speck in the blue and then calmly inform us that it was a ' Boeing ' or a Curtis Condor. ' To us, this was astounding, and he seemed to take a keen delight in watching our amused glances when he bespoke such names. Knowing Bob as we do, we do not think he will be up in the air like these planes but we feel sure that he will attain their heights. . . . lives in the shadov oF Harvard . . . star of Mt.

Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2; SUB TURRI 4; Football 1. Jim lists among his other distinctions the fact that he hails from Lexington; and if we can judge Lexington by Jim, (a process which, by the way, is contrary to all the rules of Minor Logic), we will have to admit that that town is alright. Oftentimes, we have marvelled at the suave, care-free attitude with which he seems to dispel all trouble. In fact this nonchalant attitude, coupled with his unexpec- tedly frank wit, has more than once disconcerted his professors, when he had been apprehended in some minor violation of school discipline. Possibly we have conveyed the impression that Jim is flippant and that he lacks the seriousness which is so necessary at this stage. Rather, he has substantial principles and a serious outlook, as anyone would testify who has seen him battle long and often, seemingly in vain, to have his point of view accepted by professors or classmates. These firm principles are going to be his guide, and his light-heartedness will keep him from worrying too much over the pitfalls which may beset him along that rocky road to success. . . . cold out in Lexington this morning? . . . associate professor of Evidences in Senior B . . . lectures to ever one and anyone . . .

Among that company of conservative fellows who form a stabilizing element in every class, we fondly inscribe the name of Maurice Ahern. Reticent? No, not exactly, for he is gifted in the art of conversation, but never loquacious. Maurice seemed convinced that action contributed more to scholastic success than did words, and toward that goal he steadily progressed, ever wisely. hHis deeds were not herald- ed before the school (but few of ours have), yet they remain recorded in the annals of our years for those who will to read. A trackman of notable ability, he profited much by the tutelage of Jack Ryder. But his extra curricula activities were not confined entirely to athletics, since the Spanish Academy also enrolled him among its members. Classicist, logician, psychol- ogist, each representing the results of long hours of study, might well be emblazoned along the top of his biography. In each subject through the years we watched him conquer but our words would not do justice to the praise that he deserves. May we better express it: What more can I say than this rich praise. That you alone are you. ... Pal of Ambrose . . . Pedagogue . quiet and unperturbed ... A, and P. thusiast. ANDREW J. ALUKONIS Chelsea, Mass.  Ring Committee 3; Pre-Med Club 4; Track 1, 2. Andy has proved himself a sincere student at the Heights for four years. His seriousness in all his work has been his outstanding characteristic, and his unob- trusive nature has made him a favorite with all. His electing of the Pre-Medical course points to his choice of profession. In the role of physician his efficient appearance and quiet manner will bring him as many clients as he has friends here. Andy ' s work at school permitted him little, if any, time for extra- curricular activities, but his classmates respect him for his choice of a definite goal, and his determination in the achieving of it. His indifference toward per- sonal publicity at college gave him a quality rarely seen, — that of genuine disinterestedness as far as his own glory was concerned. The generous spirit of comradeship which he displayed both in scholastic and soci al life was but a complement to his many other qualities. On the dance floor, Andy could execute the most intricate steps, and was in this respect supreme. His abilities were many, his faults few, and, with this final comment, we end the char- acterization, wishing to you, Andy, your future ad- vancement, — an unnecessary wish. . . . photographer in the embryo . . .

When our Alma Mater stood in the shadows on the hieights four years ago, and watched the class of ' 35 go by as Freshmen, she smiled in approval and, in her superior wisdom, nodded a welcome to Ralph. And Ralph like a true cavalier, proceeded to prove that the fair lady was correct in any idea she might have entertained. Modest Ralph is a phrase that has very often been used in referring to this worthy son of Winchester. We might stop there and, to those who have enjoyed his friendship, the picture would be complete, hlis geniality and fidelity to principles make him the ideal classmate and friend. As a student, Ralph had little difficulty in his stay here. In his calm, determined way he set about his daily tasks with a quiet, unruffled energy. A steady disposition served him well. What he will do after graduation, we cannot predict with any certainty, but we suspect that law will find him one of its foremost proponents. And, as he was the painstaking student and devoted friend here, so will he be in the world; and such qualifications assure success. . . . hockey his Forte . . . used to blush at Father Vaughn ' s request . . . drives a differ- ent Buick to school ever year. EDWARD E. ANDERSON Cambridge, Mass. Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4. If the achievement of personal ambitions can bring satisfaction to the individual thus blessed, Ed has ample reason to be well pleased with himself at the termination of his college career. Ed ' s interests have been devoted almost exclusively to the field of ath- letics, where, by concentration over a period of years, he has acquired an outstanding reputation for his abilities in several branches of sport. At Boston College Andy served notice upon the coaches of the different sports that he was varsity timber, and im- mediately proceeded to prove it. Chiefly noted for his stellar end play on the grid team, and his hawk- like propensities in the outer pastures of the baseball field, Andy ' s talent on the tennis courts, has gone wholly unnoticed. Though holder of the tennis title of the city of Cambridge, Andy has steadfastly re- fused to compete on the college courts, preferring to devote his time to the study of Accounting and Finance. Ed hopes to enter the banking profession upon graduating, where he will doubtless apply himself and his diversified talents in the manner which has brought him such acclaim in his undergraduate days. . . . remember the victory pass in ' 33? . . . some picker . . . did you hear the one about? . . . philosopher extraordinary . . . who can forget the night of the Sophomore Prom? 27 O o o G ALBERT ARONSON Dorchester, Mass. French Academy 1, 2, (Secretary 3, Vice- President 4); Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Orchestra 3; Musical Club, Secretary 4; Heights News Staff 3; Dramatic Club 3. Although quite aware of the fact that diplomats of renown are crowned with more sonorous titles than just Al, here is one who merits the adage — diplomat of the class. Is anyone to be found, who knew Al in any other capacity than that of friend? To please all is certainly to have the qualities of a diplomat. And the reason is not difficult to find. Considering Al looked at in himself and in all his essential relations, we find him to be a perfect gentleman and scholar. Despite the fact that many activities, not connected with scholastic associations, forced Al to spend much of his spare time away from the campus, still he found time to be one of the most active members of the French Academy. hHis love for music led him to the band. And through many other outlets, his college spirit flowed forth. In years to come we expect to hear much of him. Difficulties may continue to harass him but we know that in the end he will win. A deep thinker and a truly regular fel- low, Al will always be numbered among us as a true friend. . . . book-store clerk at one time . . . future pedgagogue . . . takes all the French courses available . . . shoe salesman . . . speaks French better than Parisians. PATRICK J. BARRETT Portland, Me. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; History Academy 4; Fulton 4; Ethics Academy 4. To many of the Senior Class, it will be a real sur- prise to learn that that quiet, studious young man, known as Pat Barrett, is a native of the Pine Tree State. Pat hails from Portland, although few know it, for he has lived in one of the suburbs during his four years here. This fact alone shows how quiet and un- assuming he has been. Still, he has been an answer to the class president ' s prayer, since he is an ardent supporter of all class functions and activities. A firm believer in the class of ' 35, Pat has certainly con- tributed his part toward making it one of, if not the most, successful class to leave the Heights. As a member of the Sodality, he has engaged in the Catholic Action work of that group. In the Fulton, his speeches were attentively listened to and were noted for the preparation which, it was evident, he had put into them. Instead of enumerating all of his qualities, we may sum them up in a few short words by saying that Pat was a true Boston College man and possessed of the true Boston College spirit. . . . right hand man of Zeb Farley . . . one of the Barretts of Portland . . . works in a can- ning factory in Maine during the summer . . . buddy of Dave Welsh and John Hogan . . . attended horse auctions. 28 H U B U R R EDWARD H.

Ed ' s studious and pleasant attitude will long be as- sociated with our pleasant memories of undergraduate days. - z is one of those fortunate individuals who are gifted with the ability to take life seriously and yet laugh at its hardships and vicissitudes. That he took his scholastic life seriously, is demonstrated by his choice of the difficult pre-medical course. This course usually causes the happiest smile to be re- placed by a dark and worried frown, but not in Ed ' s case, hie continued his serene way and even managed to break the tradition of the hermits by appearing at all of the social functions of the college, where his distinctive and intricate method of fox trotting caused many envious groans among those less gifted. Ed is rather quiet in class, but, according to Jim McDonough, he is not in the least bit bashful. How could he be, after driving that famous Model T Ford through the sedate streets of Cambridge? A splendid fellow, a representative Boston College student, he gives every promise of being a worthy and successful alumnus.

JOSEPH P. BARRY Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4,- Economics Academy 3, 4; Ethics Academy 4,- Greek Academy 1, 2,- Track 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2. Amiable, sincere, honest and capable. Strong praise for a worthy classmate. In referring such vir- tues to Joe, we are not campaigning or concocting slogans. Nor are they idle epithets, but rather a truthful estimate of this member of the Barry team. He has ably carried out the advice of Shakespeare Give every man thine edr, but few thy voice. He has been found an excellent listener and a discerning one. But when Joe does speak, we listen attentively, for he imparts words of wisdom. Perhaps the reason why his friends seek him in their misfortunes is because loquaciousness has no part in his makeup. Their troubles become his. So optimistic is he that it is hard to convince him of the failings of others. But, when the faults of another are obvious to him, he acts immediately, and with a view to showing them their errors. The guilty party is taken to task in a blunt, straightforward manner, and all liked him the better for it. Joe will be respected by all, especially by those who opposed him. Attention will always be given him, and youth will do well to learn his method, for he is possessed of that quality so rare at the present time . . . fearlessness. . . . tormented by Greek . . . summers at Aller- ton, winters at Brookline . . . spends his time arguing on any subject ... no cigarettes during Lent ... the only man that lasted through the forty days, too. 29 N O ■1 V|l • ' ' ' k k ' . 1 H •IB L ■T ' , , B l ' B Hn Hi . w ji H RAYMOND L.

During our four years of laboring to attain an education, the name Belliveau has become synonym- ous with extra-curricular activities at Boston College From Freshman, when he was an active member of the FHeights staff, the Marquette, and other societies, up to Senior, when his collegiate career was cli- maxed by his appointment to the post of Editor-in- chief of the SUB TURRI, Ray has had one continuous round of hard work, and successes in college ac- tivities, hie was untiring in his efforts, and some of his rewards were the -appointment as Managing Editor of the FHeights, President of the Marquette, Vice-President of the Dramatics Society. Prominence was his, and justl y so, for he always worked for the interests of the class. How aptly can the adage that which ordinary men are qualified in, I am Fit for, and the first of me is diligence, be applied to Ray. Under all conditions he has shown himself friend and scholar of the first rank. Indeed, his name will go down in the annals of Boston College as that of a man in whose lexicon the word fail was unknown. Well may the class of ' 35 feel proud of Ray. . . .

BERRY fHolliston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Charlie is renowned for the sportsmanship which he always displays, not only in athletics, but in every line of activity. A more dependable comrade than this quiet young man from Holliston cannot be found anywhere. We have heard that he seldom worries for more than two minutes at a time, the exception being when Billy Werber ' s average is falling. A great baseball devotee, Charlie is our own authority on the national game, and can quote at will the statistics on practically every man in the majors. However, his love of the game goes farther than that. He is a player himself, and more than once has roused the bleacherites of Holliston and environs by his sparkling play on the diamond. But you would never hear this from the modest fellow whose natural, unassuming manner might be misinterpreted as bashfulness. In class, the capable Charlie would answer the con- fusing difficulties or refute the erring adversaries with an ease which bespoke the fact that he did not ne- glect his studies. We do not hesitate to predict great success for him, and we are confident that his average will always remain near 1 .000 per cent. . . . constant attendant at Fenway Park and Braves Field . . . authority on all big league batting averages and statistics . . . slept soundly during Philosophy periods. 30 H U B U R JOHN W. BLAISDELL West Newbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4,- Pre-medical Academy 4. John has been one of our long distance commuters, and the sole representative of West Newbury here at the college. The fact that he has not figured promi- nently in the social life or in other extra-curricula activities is not at all strange, because he is among those who are preparing for the medical profession. Sleep and wandering from distant spots are not ob- stacles to those aspirants to the followers of Pasteur. If future events foreshadow anything propitious, John will have his name recorded as one of the outstanding graduates of the college, as many of his future pro- fession already have. Some, in fact, many of us are wont to complain about the long treks to our homes, but a two hour trip after a lab that lasts until five o ' clock or later never seems to dull his intellectual powers or conservative enthusiasm. Just so is John. Nothing, however formidable, seems to phase him, and because of this, the bi-annual report which is sent home is never a source of worry. May the follow- ers of the scalpel and the stethescope welcome you as a successful ally after the long period of study that faces you in the future. . . . got a ride to Haverhill? . . . let ' s 30 to town . . . very studious ... pal of Dick Gdiero . . . faithful seeker of Jesuitical prin- ciples . . . thinks nothing of walking from the hieights to the North Station.

Those of US who have, side by side with him, mingled the labor of study and the carefree joys of youth, will ever remember his accomplishments in varied fields of collegiate endeavor, hlis work on the Heights and in the debating societies, both Mar- quette and Fulton, was notable. Despite the diffi- culties that at times beset him, the record of his ac- complishments in the classroom is truly remarkable. If he carries out his intention to study law, the glory of his Alma Mater will surely be thereby increased, for as a lawyer he will be of the best, — an able, serious, and gentlemanly professional man. For if we are to judge him by his skill and accuracy of argument in debating, by his promptness in completing journal- istic assignments for the FHeights, and by his success in the study of the arts and sciences, we must certainly declare him as capable a youth as could aspire to any profession. For the future, we hope that the friend- ship we have cultivated here with him may never grow dim, and that joys we have known with him, may oft be repeated. . . . quizzes the law prof . . . future barrister . . . freauent trips to B.

Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 3, 4; Baseball 1; Ethics Academy 4. Commuting from Ayer is not just a jaunt, yet Red accepted this trip as all a part of the day ' s work. Despite the hours spent in travel, he found ample time to devote to studies, to sports, and to other extra-curricula activities. The Frosh baseball team welcomed him and found him a valuable member. Then track beckoned and Red answered with two years of admirable and faithful service. hHowever, it was not alone to sports that he turned his attention, hlis name was inscribed upon the roles of the Ethics Academy and the Academie Francais. Yes, we shall recall Red for these accomplishments, but even more so for the interesting discussion he evoked over some point in the classics. FHis refusal to be confounded by any abstruse phrase, proved beneficial to both himself and the class. Still, after the recollection of these deeds have faded, the thought of him will linger to mellow the memories of many an old grad. Certainly, a smile was never a disadvantage, and when linked with a wealth of ability and a consider- ate disposition, such as is his, it will become a power- ful factor in later years. . . . quite a boxer . . .

Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4,- Economics Academy 4; Radio Club 4; Baseball 1. Gentlemen, Mr. Thomas M. Brie, resident of Hingham, Bachelor of Philosophy, baseball player of skill and renown, radio enthusiast, and one of those quiet lads whose accomphshments are many, his friends innumerable, and his value as a friend ap- preciated by many in the class. Indeed, it must have been a character such as Tom that Shakespeare had in mind when he penned the words, Silence, the perfect herald of intelligence and loyalty. For there are few things more certain than that this lad possesses all three. Still, lest we give the impression that Tom ' s reticence has stood in the way of progress, we might easily begin to list the long record of his accomplish- ments. However, a few will have to suffice, for our chronicle must be brief. His summers he de- voted to playing semi-pro ball, and around Hing- ham town the Brie boy is certainly well known for his prowess. But it is Tom ' s personal attributes which we admire the most, for this seemingly unperturbable chap has long since won our affection and esteem. When we are looking for a represent- ative B. C. man, we can point with pride to Tom, to whom we wish the best in all his battles. . . . Once had Colby in his heart . . .

Zeke, as we know him, is another of the long hst of knights who hailed from the little red school house on James Street, deciding to acquire more higher learning under the Jesuits. FHis mind is facile, alert; his moods varied. Ah, the futility of it all ! To reduce Zeke to the dull black and white of the printed word ! When he utters his speech it is harkened to. The originality of his thought is respect- ed. Of his mode of expression what can be said that is adequate? Often, at the least provocation, there is liable to issue forth from his mouth words of wis- dom, gems of wit far too lofty for one of his years. A worthy exponent of the rugged outdoor life, so conducive to possession of that schoolgirl complex- jon, this peripatetic was ever seeking a companion to share wit and fortune with him on his numerous walking jaunts to his Dorchester homestead, or to some unknown destination in town. hHis persever- ance extends to all branches of college life, especially to study. - z works hard to overcome any perplexing problem that lurks in the weary mazes of the pre- scribed curriculum. With Chick Callahan, he has helped caddies to earn money on free afternoons. Nothing is too difficult for Zeke. Of all these qualities possessed, he is, more than all, a friend who is a friend. . . .

Committee 2, 3; Sodality 1, (Secretary 2); Glee Club ,3 4, Orchestra 1, 3, 4,- Dramatics 3,- SUB TURRI Staff 4. A noted lecturer said to Irvin during the course of a class discussion, It is the small men like us who, during the Middle Ages while all the wars were taking place, kept the light of culture burning for future generations. Many of us heard of Reading before Irv became one of the concurrence on the h eights, yet it took quite a while to realize that there were many difficulties which he, like the other rus- tics, had to undergo in order to commute from this select spot on the terrain of the Bay State. Irvin achieved an enviable position at the h eights when he was elected President of I ' Academie Francaise. hlis ability as a leader of his confreres and his knowl- edge of the French language was thus given due recognition. Besides his modern language knowledge, this versatile young man is a musician whose talents have become a distinguishing note in the Musical Club. The piano has felt the touch of an embryonic master and, coupled with this, his vocal ability was exemplified in his selection as a member of the quartet in Junior and remaining on it in Senior. Thus with a mitigated record of his accomplishments — one which does not paint in full his pleasant qualities which make him a companion worth seeking, — we leave Irv amidst all his musical masters — a worship- ing youth who soon, we feel, will find his proper and deserving place among them. . . . star biographer . . . who pulled the plug out of the organ? . . . diminutive official of the French Academy . . . finds it difficult to eat spaghetti . . . manages to have his picture in the oddest places (see the Feature Section). 33 O o N O NEIL W. BULMAN Medford, Mass. French Academy 3; Ethics Academy 4; Economics Academy 4; Von Pastor 3, 4, Associate Editor SUB TURRI 4. Here is a somewhat unobtrusive individual who came to the College in Junior year. Although he has been with us but a short time, he has shown himself both brilliant and amusing in class, hlis brilliancy was exemplified in the manner in which he presented in- tricate objections in Junior philosophy; the amusing side was evident from those chair-tilting contests in which he was wont to engage with Bob Clancy, and which as a rule, ended disastrously, disrupting the entire class. His up-state drawl (which, by the way, he flatly denies having), was a source of delight to all of us, and we awaited with eager anticipation the times when Neil would have a difficulty to be cleared up. There is an old saying Still waters run deep and it holds true in this case, for silent Neil is a fellow of deep understanding and thought. Those of the class, who do not know him well, can judge his capabilities from his work on the SUB TURRI staff as an associate editor. We, who know him inti- mately, find him to be conscientious and diligent. Success for him is already assured.

However, we boast of the exception . . . John Burke. But he more than atones for his lack of external activity by his ability to recite at length and intelligently, on any subject. We can remember, when he entered Freshman, how he easily assimilated a knowledge of the classics which had proved difficult for most of us. In Sopho- more, chemistry held no terrors for him. Then, in Junior the power of our Cum Laude classmate was evident in the manner in which he handled Philoso- phy, that subject so feared by the majority. In Senior, he elected Latin, an action which seems to indicate that he tends toward the teaching profession. We can picture him now, standing before his class, ex- plaining the mysteries of Cicero and Archias, while the pupils listen with rapt attention. However, when John goes forth to take up the role of a pedagogue, his disposition will be of great aid to him, since it is such that it will make most people kindly disposed toward him, and his pupils will realize that in John they have both a firm and able teacher. . . .

From a discussion of some of the riotous happenings that do occur about the h eights, he would turn the conver- sation to histology or the morphology of the Mal- phigian bodies. This future medico, as is evident from v hat vt e have said, is a man of ability as well as versatility. hHis greying hair is but an extrinsic sign of intelligence which is synonymous with the proverbial grey matter. John has a slightly excitable nature, as is evidenced by his characteristic chin-stroking no matter how pulse-raising the situation. This calmness A ill be of value in his nerve-wracking career. Tribute should be paid to John when, considering the large enrollment of medical schools, and the more strin gent entrance requirements, he has been found a desirable candidate by five such institutions. We can feel proud of the fact as well as John himself, hie has the cultural background, the ability, the personality and the necessary qualities for a notable surgeon.

The trou- bles and woes of the rest of us never seemed to reach him, nor to dim his complacent, reassuring smile. Every morning at nine-Fifteen Bill came rolling up the back road in his faithful little Ford, found a parking space and then, without hurry or worry went in to meet the problems of the day in the most placid manner possible. This, perhaps, was one reason why he had so many friends, but there were other reasons, too. For he was eminently a good fellow, in all the finest connotations of the term, always ready to work or play, to sympathize or laugh, as the occasion de- manded. Never did he display at any time an unde- sirable characteristic. In all his acts he showed the gentlemanly reserve and savoir-faire worthy of the college man. What Bill intends to do in future years, we do not know,- but this we do know, that wherever he directs his activities, his personal characteristics will prove great assets. Wherever level-headedness and calm thinking is needed amid the hustle and bustle of modern life, there Bill will be welcomed. . . . Government shark . . .

Charlie is a tall, blond fellow with a winning way about him, seemingly carefree at all times, but serious enough at heart to realize the importance of such things as studies, and consequently never lacking in scholastic success. It is not hard to understand there- fore, why it has been his happy lot to gain a host of friends at college, friends who will undoubtedly re- main with him through future years. For Charlie al- ways displayed that sincerity in all his associations which makes, not mere acquaintances, but lasting friendships. Frankness characterized his speech and general demeanor and fear of the opinions or scrutiny of others never affected his actions. Golf has been his delight through the years of his college career. In Freshman he held a, place on the 1935 team and since then he has lost no opportunity to use the woods and irons o ' er hill and dale, frequently in friendly rivair with his companion, Zeke Bride. For the next few years to come, he intends to be very busy with the study of law and, from what we know of Charlie, we can safely predict that a worthy member will soon be added to the legal profession. ... he and Zeke Bride, the golfing duo . . . card shark . . . did you ever hear this one? . . .

Such are the titles that aptly may grace this picture. As we look upon those stalwart features, as we have for four short years, we read in them the reason for Charlie ' s success on the diamond, on the gridiron, in classroom and school activities. Throughout his collegiate career, he was a potent factor in the baseball team ' s success. An accomplished football player, his grid career was brought to an untimely close by the numerous demands made upon his time by the science course. Football ' s loss, however, will be a gain for the medical profession. Still, athletics were but a portion of the elements of college life which engaged his attention. Amid all the varied activities to which he gave his time and endeavor, he did not forget the purpose of his presence beneath these towers. FHis ability is kown to all of us, and those whose interest tends toward the biological might well acclaim Charlie ' s skill with a scalpel. When these abilities, which he has proved to be his own, are recognized in years to come, we are certain that his will be a high place in the medical world. . . . future M.D. . . . stars in Ethics quiz . . . played the blushing bridegroom in The Ghost Train . . . fond of nurses. 36 1 9 U B U R EDWARD R.

Small in stature, but not of mind, one who has failed to be last in the shuffle as so many of us have, that ' s Ed Callahan from the Dorchester environs. He came out here in the fall of 1931 just as one of the many aspirants to future learning. But he was not long in making himself known to his classmates. hHis beam- ing personality and contagious laugh are hard to resist. One will always find him in the midst of a circle of his friends, relating some of the happenings of a carefree conduct. He is prominent in all the extra-curricular activities, and, as photography editor of the SUB TURRI, he was perpetual motion. There was hardly a dance of any class that he did not sup- port, at least by his attendance. It is surprising the number of men he knows, and t o some he seems a human directory of the college enrollment. But far be it from him to let any engagement interfere with his studies, since he has a legal career in view after graduation, and we of ' 35 are sure that the profession of the records and oratory will gain a valuable member. . . .

We take no vote to determine what man has made the greatest success of his college course against the greatest odds. If we did, behold, Cardillo ' s name would lead ail the rest. We will always remember Eddie as one who knew the meaning of perseverance and the connotation of study. But let us not make the mistake of imagining Eddie as one of those peculiar people known as grinds. Hz could mix study with pleasure into the most pleasing combination ever seen here. Some of our most enjoyable moments at the hieights have been spent in trying to parry his numer- ous quips, or in laughing at his hilariously funny re- marks on anything and everything. Among his many distinctions is his fame (or perchance a professor would distinguish, and say notoriety) for the rendi- tion of psuedo-operatic airs either in song or by his canary-bird whistling. We can still see the puzzled faces of the biology professors trying to determine from what part of the lab those bothersome (to Eddie, beautiful) noises were coming. Eddie is head- ing for the study of medicine. All we can say to that is that we know, or vv ' ill know, at least one good doctor. . . . Singer of note . . . what ' s hot? . . .

Charlie, alias Bing, deprived Boston College of his fine voice for three years, but the college spirit caught him in Senior and he declined several com- mercial offers, having decided to join our Glee Club. Charles was a loyal booster for the B. C. Club of Peabody, and was an officer in the organization. He was one of the group of Peabody hustlers who put on that dance at hHappy Valley in Lynn during the Christmas vacation, h is ability in the classroom was equalled only by his knowledge of football statistics. He could even tell you who played right tackle for old Knox the last time they won a game. hHe knew the records of almost every college team in the country, and was our own authority on these matters. The first snowfall usually caused Charlie to leave the land down under and hibernate in Watertown. From the brief reports we at the Heights have been able to gather, it seems that they have severe winters at Peabody, and Charlie had no desire to brave the wintry blasts such as blast in that town. Since he took Latin as an elective, it would not be surprising if the Peabody High School students will soon be listening to Bing croon the funeral dirge for all those who play the ponies (and we don ' t mean the Rockingham variety either). . . . strong advocate of the back-to-the- farm movement . . . calls a colored porter on the Peabody Express by his first name . . . likes Klipa ' s violin playing. DANIEL F. X. CARNEY Mi I ford, Mass. Football 1; Track 1, 2; Economics, Secretary 4; Business Club, (Secretary 4); Fencing Team 4; Von Pastor 2, 3, 4; Business Staff, SUB TURRI. Presenting for your appraisal Mr. Daniel F. X. Carney of the famed city of Milford. True to the traditions of his native heath, Dan had a fondness for entertaining, and an aptness in the art of terpischore. A modern song had a wondrous power over his agile feet, and accordingly, he has helped glaze many a dancing floor between the Cape and Whitinsville. His flair for entertainment was evidenced at the smokers when his Minnie the Moocher, sung in a resounding voice, had the assembly in an uproar. However, his ability did not end there. For four years, during exams, the familiar figure with the red hair was always the first to grin at the professor and walk out of the exam room an hour before anyone else. Few were more consistent students than Dan. We doubt that the midnight oil was ever burned at his house, but this made very little difference,- Dan had the happy faculty of hitting those exams on the nose. Whether the future will find Dan studying law, or in the tumult of the business world, we look forward with great confidence to seeing him become a power in his chosen field. . . . crooner . . . red-headed mocking bird . . . where ' s Minnie? . . . hotcha . . . peppy dancer . . . frequent visitor to Reqis and Emmanuel. 38 U B WILLIAM F.

We Find in Bill the embodiment of all the quahties characteristic of the ideal Boston College student. For he has the gentlemanliness and culture worthy of the Jesuit-trained man. hie is an ardent supporter of all the activities and functions of his Alma Mater, and can be found at all class affairs. Nor does his scholas- tic work, or his extra-curricular activities suffer be- cause of his social life. On the contrary, his class work is of the best, and he gives much time to such activities as assisting Father Stinson in his library work, and the Glee Club. Indeed, many an afternoon, the shadows of the tower were lengthening on the campus, while Bill ' s voice was raised in harmonious union with those of his fellow aspirants for vocal distinction. On Monday evenings, too, he shared the hectic struggle which must precede the printing of the hieights. Bill ' s ability in the terpsichorean art is unexcelled, and he may be seen practicing very often in some of Boston ' s brighter spots. FHis motto seems to be a time and place for everything, and when it is time for work he works diligently, when the time for pleasure arrives, he plays, whole-heartedly. . . . bus. mgr ' s stooge . . . where are you going tonight, Ray? . . . works in library . . . ghost of the stackroom . . . who ' s got his deposit? ...

Sodality 1, 2; Ethics Academy 4,- Radio Club 4; Business Club 4,- French Academy 2. From the town of clean streets, low taxes, aversion to sack, and inestimable wealth, Cav met us in Freshman. Brookline usually boats of fine characters, and this classmate, quiet, unruffled, and casting un- seemingly uncomprehending looks, which he casts upon a questionnaire, is no exception. FHowever, we can remember him from those famous Greek classes. When he was called on, we contentedly sat back and let him reveal his knowledge unwaveringly. Psychology and Ethics were but other obstacles met and overcome, and then did George really show that deep-seated knowledge which lay hidden beneath that calm exterior. Because of various outside duties, George was unable to enter into any extra-curricular activities until this year. FHowever the Ethics Academy listened with deep interest to his scholarly master- pieces upon the Pope ' s encyclicals. Also the Radio Club held out an interest to Cav which seemed to reveal certain hidden qualities otherwise suppressed. Now George is embarking upon his course of life and we sincerely believe that that name which is familiar to all of us, will carry him through, as that Cav of football fame, to the culmination of his am- bitions and still perpetuate that name to fame. . . . got a ride? . . .

Al- though this characteristic is nothing to his discredit as a scholar and a supporter of all things Boston College, yet we naturally found it difficult to acquire data for his biography. But after much assiduous pry- ing and questioning, we learned that, although Leo never said anything about It, he did, nevertheless, derive real benefit from his career at the hieights. hie believed that success is not notoriety and conse- quently, he is ready to leave the protection of these halls, fully equipped for a future struggle, hie was a student, literally speaking, and spent most of his time on scientific subjects, burrowing amidst scientific data for the Radio Club or any other B.S. curricula sub- jects. When he is not-thusly employed, you can find him with his stooges Brie and Anderson, engrossed in subjects of the day whether social or otherwise. We shall all remember John as a gentleman in the very manner that the learned Newman described one. We can only expect success from him, that such an imperceptible, and yet affable, nature assures. . . . A. B.

Even in his silence, he acquired friendships, for he realizes that they are precious gems to anyone, hie even seems to carry this ability for making friends into his relations with his studies. While most of us consider our studies as natural enemies and things to be abhorred, Frank had always been on the best of terms with them, actually enjoying them, and displaying a brilliancy and versa- tility that has made him one of the class ' leading students. Frank has been preparing for the study of medicine, a field for which his talents have especially suited him. FHis friendly disposition would be a tonic for any patient. FHe would have liked to have been class photographer, laboring with films and acids, but organic laboratory work thwarted his ambitions. One of his accomplishments is that he actually listened to psychology lectures every eay. We feel certain that Frank, in following his vocation, will bring the greatest glory to his profession, his Alma Mater, and himself. ... a ver studious pre-med . . . v ell ac- quainted around certain parts of Dorchester ... pal of Alukonis ' and Crimmings . . . headed for Tufts. 40 u e U R JOHN W.

Of their own merits, modest men are silent, and it is perhaps because of this fact that the highhghts of John ' s career here at the FHeights have never been fully realized by many of us. He has not been the outstanding member of the class, nor has he been the outstanding member of any particular group, club or activity. But what he was, and more could not be asked of any man, was a true friend. Now, there arz members of the class who rave on about bugs, the thoracic vertebrae, and the embryonic cycle of the chick. Others take delight in torturing us with the perfectly evident beauties of hHecuba or hlorace. But John seemed to find his nectar in determining the veracity of the cognitive faculties or the probability of Hylomorphism. Philosophy, in other words, was his tramping ground. The marvel is that he did not succumb to being a dusty intellectual, hie has always been an adviser in our psuedo-worries and a source of understanding. So, now, that it is time to part, we won ' t say goodbye, but merely au revoir. . . .

But we grew to know Bob, and our esteem grew with our knowledge. Like young Lochinvar he rode out of the West — just a modest youth who never advertised his worth. And now, he has so entrenched himself in the hearts of many of us, that, at the parting of our ways, we carry off hardly a memory of happy times, in which Bob does not figure. Bashful and bold, reticent and talkative, thoughtless and thought- ful, — a glorious paradox. No one excelled Bob in philosophy or dancing, in sociology or attending affairs at Regis. But somehow kilts and Latin comp never appealed. No finer praise can be given a man than that his class feels him to be a worthy represent- ative of the college. Without hesitation, we offer Bob this praise, for he has character and breeding. Ours is a feeling of gratitude that college days have brought us the friendship of such a man as Bob Clancy. And when we meet again in the future, it will be better for having met each other at Boston College. Good luck, Bob. . . .

It was amazing flow Jim could sleep during common sensibles and acosmistic idealism, and yet awake to parry witti- cisms witfi tfie utmost lack of effort. To meet Jim coming up the hill on some breezy morning, one would fancy from his absorbed expression that his thoughts were heavy with the weighing of the pros and cons for hylomorphism. But let the truth be known, the prime matter of his cogitations was, shall it be the Totem Pole or the Flamingo Room Saturday night; the substantial forms, — well any bit of femin- inity, be she from Regis, Emmnauel or even Radcliffe. For Jim was quite an amateur Astaire. Long remember the cigars Jim affected. As a smoke screen they must be admitted as effective. And lest we forget, let it be said for the future generations that Jim was present in person at the building of the stadium. Nominally a worker, his wit bouyed up the laborers in the long summer days. So with these random, kaleidoscopic views of Jim, we leave him, known as one of our most versatile characters, whose title to fame is his own worth. . . . truck diver par excellence . . . practices on the 1905 Pierce Arrow . . . likes his home environment, Parker Hill, v hich has the repu- tation for best looking girls in Boston.

But FHum intends in the future to park behind some mahogany desk and mull over other people ' s business as an accountant. His skillful managing and arranging of business for some concern is assured. Due to the fact that he was never in scholastic difficulty, some would never sus- pect his social propensities. For his social accomplish- ments have made h um known to us all.

Returning from a foreign sfiore, or should we say from across the border, came Bill four years ago to prepare for a career as an M.D. For if Wimpy, as he Is known to the boys, had remained at the college of his first choice, Loyola College of Montreal, rather than our own Alma Mater, would number Bill among its graduates. But, fortunately for us, we have him here In our midst, to brighten up the class when gloom threatens. Never had depression a stronger enemy than this easy-going lad. His is the rare gift which enables him to perceive the sunshine above the darkest clouds. Time and again has his wit and his carefree mien, his manner of meeting each new ob- stacle with a smile, proved him a valued comrade. Think not that Bill ' s ability Is limited to things philo- sophical or scientific, for his skill at Rugby and skiing may well be a cause of acclaim and admiration. Long will we remember his cheery quips, and especially his dashes to get to the first class. Never shall we speak with greater sincerity and pleasure than when we say, Yes, we know Bill Coffey.

Noted primarily for his scholarship, he could boast of medals which are his by virtue of his wisdom, but we will not hear about these medals from Bill, for his nature Is not such. Lest anyone conclude that he is nothing but a book-worm, let us set him aright. Bill would rather play football than get a ride home to East Woburn,- he played hockey In his home town and held his own in competition with cetrain B. C. stars. With a bat on his shoulder, he is a menace to the reputation of any pitcher. Thus you can see that his Is the faculty of combining duty with pleasure. We hesitate to say what Bill Is aiming for after Commencement, because we have never received a hint of it from him. hHow- ever, he is deserving of both success and happiness, and we of ' 35 know that he has the ability to attain them. . . .

Biology Semindr 3, 4; Chemistry Academy; Ethics Academy; French Academy. In our most scientific manner we shall attempt to give a qualitative analysis of Milton Cohen for the delectation of the class. First of all his height is medium. This alone does not differentiate him from the rest of us. His build is slight; his appearance neat. What does distinguish Milton is the expression of determination on his face. This in itself lends a feeling of confidence to us all. From sitting in class for four years with him, we can vouch for his ability. So the result of our analysis is that Milton is a colleague esteemed not for any particular characteristic or abihty, but rather in the coincidence of them all. Perhaps this is the reason why an analysis of quiet, unknown persons like Milton is so essential to as- certain just why it is we admire them. Milton ' s am- bitions lie in the medical field. Nature has equipped him with much intelligence, as is evidenced in his proficiency in mathematics. FHe has developed this talent, and has whetted it on the intricacies of chem- istry and biology. Yet not alone admiration for Milton, but friendship, too, will stamp itself for long on our memories. . . . popular in pre-med . . .

Almost four years have passed since then, but they have left us countless joys and pleasures, among them the happiness of his friendship. And when after graduation day we will no longer see his Pepsodent smile, we shall certainly know that there is something missing. For let him but smile — your cares depart. John came to us not un- heralded, for he was a scintillating light on the Cambridge Latin hockey team. We would expect great things from him in this line of sport here at the college, if time permitted him to turn his attention in that direction. But, as it is, he has earned our plaudits for the other extra-curricula activities in which he has managed to share between the study of the various ologies of the science course. For three years he was a faithful member of the track team, while the Radio Club, the Ethics and Economic Academies number him on their rosters. Studious he was, and because of it, he will be appreciated. Our sincere wishes for success will always be his. . . . Personality kid ... . pal of Brendan author of A. B. C.

The world may boast of its Kreislers, its Gruen- bergs, its Spaldings, and other great masters of the violin. But Boston College can proudly boast of its own Mike Collins. A great portion of his youthful existence, he has devoted to music — yea, with him it is the prophet ' s art, among the gifts that God hath sent, one of the most magnificent. For four years he has been invaluable to the Musical Club of the College. The most intricate score was for him a mere trifle. Not alone in music did Mike excel, but like- wise was he meriting in scholastic endeavors, hlis record here at the hieights is one characteristic of the Boston College men of the past, and this is no small tribute. Now that our college careers have come all too soon to a close, our sincere wish is that our friendship with him may live on. Our pre- diction for his future success, based as it is on his evident character, his loyalty and devotion to the school and class, and to friends, can only be one for a career of honor and esteem.

C. are increasing. One of the most promising prospects for the national pastime is our own Dave. He was one of the best all-round infielders who ever represented the hHeights on the diamond. Although he never was very potent at the plate, Dave was always a tower of strength on the defense. hHe could always scoop them up and send a bullet-like peg to first if the ball came into any part of his territory. If you summer on the Cape, don ' t be surprised if you see Dave down there starring in the Cape League. In the past two or three summers, he has been selected on the All-Cape team, the cream of the inter-collegi- ate players. Dave was one of that well-known quartet of fellows who were always seen together, hlow often have you seen him when he was not with hHank Groden, Bill Nash, and Bobby Curran? Before class, after class, and on an occasional nocturnal sally, the four always reminded us of the gentlemen of the Apocalypse. With hopes that vye will see each other again in the world of success, we say so long, Dave, and good luck. . . . Co-Capldin . . .

A quiet, unassuming fellow, he is furthering the glory of the Connelly name. Others of his kin were great speakers, but words from Dave are few and far between, hlowever, even though his words may not be numerous, his every syllable gives evidence of deep and careful thought. In Freshman, Dave boldly set out to ruin the accumulated track records of the century, hlowever, after Sophomore, the inroads made on his time by Physics and Philosophy prevented him from devoting a sufficient amount of his time to work on the cinders. Those who know Dave intimately will always feel that his persistency and optimistic attitude have been an influential determinent during four difficult years. We are not sure what he intends to do after leaving these halls, hlowever, his unquestioned ability as a member of the Accountancy class, assures him of fitting recompense in the business world. No matter what profession Dave eventually joins, his natural determination, his pleasant personality, and his acknowledged ability will gratify his desire to be numbered among those who know not failure. . . .

To write a good biography of Jim is difficult, not in obtaining good material, but rather in according justice to the many outstanding gentlemanly traits that he possesses. Out of the obscure recesses of Salem, Jim has come into the cultured atmosphere so prevalent at the hieights. On his arrival we soon found him to be the optimistic and ever pleasant student who had a flair for poetry and a great ambi- tion to emulate the Mayo Brothers. If you had the opportunity to travel with him, you would have at first hand all the daily events embellished with a flow of Ciceronian eloquence. In four years, his triumphs have been many, and we are told that they have not been limited to the FHeights alone, but have extended to many parts of the exclusive North Shore. From all appearances the field of medicine awaits Jim and we are sure he will meet with success,- for he possesses those characteristics so necessary to a doctor — a keen mind, a quick wit, an appreciative sense of humor, and, above all, a desire to lend a helping hand to those less fortunate. . . .

Whenever we think of John, we usually recall the age old proverb, Still waters run deep, ' for John never had much to say. However, when he did speak he always contributed to the general knowledge of his listeners. It cannot be said that John was the cause of any disturbance, for he was first and foremost a gentleman. To complete four years at college is hard, but when in addition to this one has to work after classes the burden becomes many times more difficult. This, however, was not for him an insur- mountable obstacle, but rather a difficulty to be over- come Vi ith much effort. During the four years John never complained, but made the most of the situation, and worked diligently. Nothing but the highest praise can be given him. If John ' s smile were his fortune, his wealth would be fabulous. We believe that he is planning a career in the business world, and judg- ing from his proficiency in Accounting and Econom- ics, we know that he has a substantial foundation for future accomplishment. If work assures glorious achievement, we are confident that his will indeed be a high place. . . . vzty, very serious . . . always paid hi s SUB TURRI deposits on time . . . can ' t be rattled . . . knows his stuff.

Seldom do we meet a man who possesses the qualifications necessary for a facility in many sports, but we are satisfied to have been able to say that we knew one. We refer to none other than Grodon Connor, whose capabilities as a trackman long since earned him a successful place among Jack Ryder s proteges. His speed and accurate eye proved a boon to the Independents, who quietly added to the college prestige upon the basketball court. A glance at his record at Winthrop High will corroborate the statement, in fact will show that we couch his suc- cesses in mild terms. In hockey and football, too, would the name Connor have ranked high if chem- istry did not usurp so much time in his schedule. Among the many other recollections of Gordon will be his fondness for bow-ties, especially those of somewhat roseate hue. His very successful manage- ment of the Junior Hallowe ' en Dance, his mastery of the secrets of the colloid chemistry, an unperturbed attitude at the most startling incidents, but especially the friendliness of that warm smile that was ever his, will always be recalled. May all your future achieve- ments equal your past victories, Gordon. . . . Energy personified . . .

It would be folly to attempt to enumerate Joe ' s capabilities and accomplishments, merely because he has too many, hie could qualify as a trumpeter in any maestro ' s agsregation, and his voice would earn him a permanent position in any noted group of vocalists. His ability also carries him to the tennis court and to the diamond, on both of which he has proved himself to be proficient. But far more than these, we hail him as a man who actually enjoys the Pre-Medical course. Words will not serve to portray Joe ' s true character and consequently this brief observation seems to us so inadequate, that we feel as if our attempt was futile, hlis generosity was a marked characteristic of his nature when he offered his talents to aid any project attempted by the class, hlis artistic posters were marvelled at by all and he was truly master of the rotunda art gallery. One accomplishment of his which has never been duplicated was his ability to obtain the musical director ' s stateroom key while in tourage. Many obstacles have been on his path and he has overcome them. Capability, the key to success, is his and will open to him the door to future great- ness. . . . sign painter . . . really knows his Ethics . . . lost to a seminarian . . champion of hierb Kenney . . . advisor of Father Gilleran . . . trumpeter.

During two different foot- ball seasons, within three years, this apt quotation has been applied to a courageous leader of a spirited group of football adherents. When Phil Couhig graduated, we thought, with regret, that it would be many years before another captain, so capable, would lead a B. C. team to victory. Yet, two years later, another of the Beverly Couhigs accomplished an unheard-of feat. Dave is a quiet, determined chap, who seemed born to instill confidence and courage in a team, hlis consistently good playing and his capable leadership were two important causes of the spirit of his team, — a team that fought its way out of the throes of despondency after a discouraging loss to a major opponent. Because of this, he was held in esteem by friend and foe alike. Although never a Demosthenes or a Cicero, he has made several historical speeches during his career at the hieights, — brief, pointed remarks that possessed all the necessities of cool thought and lack of verbosity. A thoroughly likeable fellow, Dave was gifted with all the qualities necessary for a worthy leader, — on or off the grid- iron. Good luck, Dave, may all your efforts bring touchdowns. . . .

For the past four years with the coming of each fall, Jerry has packed his bag and forsaken his native New hiampshire to take up his residence in our midst. Cherry and gay, happy as the day is long is the characterization which best fits this classmate of ours. Jerry ' s ease will always remain in our memories and bring back happy thoughts of campus life. When first we met him, radiant jovialities told us unmistakeably, that here was a fellow-classmate whose friendship was to be highly valued. Many semesters have passed since then and this original judgment of ours has become a firm conviction. This, we think, is as sincere a tribute as can be paid to any Senior, and it is in this light that we would remember Jerry. In the past year he has shown an extreme adeptness at handing out checks to student employees, and perhaps this is an indication of the path in which his talents will follow. But be this as it may, we will always think of New Hampshire and East Jaffrey as symbolic of earnest endeavor, light-heartedness, and men of success. . . .

In examining the life story of every successful man, two facts will be found paramount; first, that he was conscientious, and second, that perserverance paved the way to the goal that gleamed beyond all ob- stacles. If asked who was the most conscientious student in the Senior Class, we could answer without hesitation Ernie. As for his perserverance, his ac- complishments testify to that far more forcibly than could any word of ours. For Ernie was one of that dauntless band that elected the pred-med course with its various ologies. And now, after watching many of his comrades fall vanquished in some skirmish with electrons or plasma, he is still one of the gallant crew soon to set forth to keep the name of our Alma Mater bright among the ranks of medical men. Ernie ' s way was not without difficulties,- but, instead of de- terring, they spurred him on with a greater determin- ation to succeed. But the reward of worry and dili- gence is surely of great worth where there is already an abundance of talent. No need to hope that suc- cess will be his; we know it will be. . . .

An adage would not be an adage were there not an exception to it. So the exception to the saying, Good things come in small packages, is Frank Cowhig. For, physically speaking, he is a young giant, and speaking in any mode at all, he is most assuredly a good thing. One does not have to go far to prove this. A mere scanning of his record of dogged perseverance with the football team is sufficient. For Frank had a hard fight on his hands there, but never did he allow discouragement or the steepness of the grade to down him. In practice, and in the games themselves, he gave all that he had, so that, despite the injuries which befell him, he held his own in a fight for first string tackle. As is usual for a person of his perseverance, he is also noted for a certain quiet reserve — not the disdainful type — but the type that breaks through on occasions with bursts of riotous good nature and hijmor, which is better appreciated because of its comparative rarity. FHis perseverance will win success for him,- and his good nature will bring him countless friends. . . .

For he is surely that. Serious when matters of importance were at hand, yet gifted with a dry humor as was evidenced by many a witticism, followed by gales of laughter from his comrades, Frank ranks among his fellowmen as one whose friendship was ever to be cherished. F i5 constancy of purpose was a quality well worthy of our emulation, for studying some of those ' ometries would be enough to phase the average man. Yet Frank seemed to thrive upon it. Progress for him meant not brilliant starts and then long periods of inactivity, but a steady daily advance, before which exams succumbed. F is activity in the Biological Seminar seems to indicate that, with four years of medical school added to the education which is already his, Frank will go forth as an M.D. who will certainly be a credit to the h eights. Whether country practitioner, surgeon, or specialist, Frank will always be respected by his colleagues and esteemed by his friends. . . .

Until this year, few of us realized that Grover had any great athletic ability. hHowever when Pug (one of his many nommes de plume) led the Stylus eleven to the college championship, he showed re- markable ability as a play selecter and line plunger. His versatility in other activities has been well known since Freshman. After contributing regularly to the Stylus, he was appointed Editor this yearand has gain- ed many grey hairs in consequence. Monthly his call for manuscripts went practically unheeded and we have often witnessed the inspiring spectacle of the editor tearing out his raven locks by handfulls. hHowever, the Stylus, during his regime, has retained its high standards. At the same time, the Fulton, with its trdditional revolutions and counter-revolutions, has fully tested the Cronin diplomatic powers. In addi- tion to the Fulton, Grover has lectured as a member of the Sodality group in its famous campaign against Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy. In spite of all this extra work, however, he has maintained the excellent scholastic rating throughout.

A tall, pleasant chap, quiet on occasions, but sometimes rather argumentative, — that ' s Al. He takes a keen delight in resurrecting philosophic quibbles, which he never will forsake until his adversary ad- mits defeat. He pretends to be a cynic, a regular I ' m from Missouri fellow but his grin gives him away. His popularity is not limited to his classmates, but also extends to the weaker sex, living in and about West Roxbury. His athletic activities he con- fined to the fencing team, on which he is a master. A duelist supreme, he is ever ready to meet anyone with foils or sabre. And as for football predictions, he is an excellent prognosticator. Now at the end of his college life, he goes out from within these halls but not unarmed for life ' s battle. His principles will be his foils his friendliness his plastron, and the combination of the two will enable him to win most of his struggles. Good luck, Al, may you always say to Adversity thrust and when the struggle of flashing wit is ceased, we know you will be a victor in this match with life. . . .

Quite un- expectedly in Sophomore, he entered the groups of those of longer acquaintance and because of a low, appeasing voice, a continuity of pleasant moods and a knowledge of concurrent affairs, we welcomed him. Now after three years of continuous activity in every phase of college life, he stands with us on the brink of an unfathomable future, principled and moulded in the ideaU and the traits of an educated and cultured college youth, acquired under the wise guidance of instructors who are deep in wisdom. Dorchester ' s hills know John — one in particular. The cinders at least have sensed a cool and seasoned supporter.

Unassuming, according to the thickest book we possess means — retiring, modest, without self-con- cit. When we say Dick is unassuming, we certainly are right, according to our observations and those of the rest of the class. In spite of all this, he is an active associate as an officer of the renowned B. C. Club of Medford-Malden, being of the Medford contingent. There have been a number of successful denizens from Medford who have matriculated here at the Heights during the past years — and Dick is no deviation from the rule of his predecessors. Each of us is particularly accomplished in some branch of activity, whether it be in a wide and exalted field, or in a very limited and often slightly amusing one. Dick ' s specialty is the dubbing of certain of his ac- quaintances with names he claims to be appropriate. We know that certain of these acquaintances do not agree. But, such things make college life what it is. Dick is one who has lifted the monotony of many hours here by his dry, subtle witticisms.

Few of the members of the class of ' 35 boast the varied assortment of talents which have made Joe one of the real leaders of the class. Adept in all the social graces, honored with class office, gifted with out- standing athletic ability, Joe has serenely plotted a brilliant path into the undergraduate ranks for four years. During this time his many friends have supple- mented the honors he has won, with new ones of their own choosing. Distinguished as a three time winner of the varsity B, Joe, with his blond brother Bob, comprised one-half of the Maroon and Gold backfield during the past season. A powerful running back on the gridiron, Joe ' s speed was a distinct asset to the track team which occupied his attention at the close of each football season. Though athletics claimed a major part of his efforts, Joe found time for the exercise of his diversified talents in other fields of collegiate activity, not the least of which was his twice-attained office of Vice-President of the class. Joe ' s favorite topic is the younger member of the Curran family, to whom he generously yields the palm for family honors. We know that his success here foreshadows future accomplishments, and none will be more pleased than we who have been his friends. . . . L Street . . . Karlsrhue . . . Cohasset . . .

Whether this is true or not, we know that the Class of ' 35 prefers this blonde paragon of physical per- fection. Possessed of unusual ability as an athlete, Bobby has proved his worth on the gridiron, dia- mond, and track, and was B. C. ' s outstanding back- field man in the season just passed. His ball carrying in every game served to make the name Curran a by- word on the campus, and the cry at all the contests was, Give the ball to Bobby. On the baseball field, his facility was climaxed in his selection as co- captain. In the Ryder realm, he was at once a joy and a disappointment because, while he was a good ddshman, he could not devote his time to the cinder path. True, this class has abounded in versatile ath- letes, but, we believe, none better than Bob. h e is ending his collegiate career, going forth from the Heights, to what profession we know not, but to success we are certain. He leaves numerous records behind him, but, more than these, he leaves the feeling of goodwill and friendliness which his dis- position has built up through his four years here. . . .

He was one of Jack Ryder ' s track men during Freshman and Sophomore, and displayed an enviable talent on the boards. You may be assured that we will all eagerly follow Ed ' s course, when he has left our midst, and we will all be ready to congratulate him when his desires are gratified and he has become one of our most successful alumni.

In scanning these pages in future years, when we pause on John ' s brief biography, our reminiscing will bring us a picture of a jovial chap, who indulged in his wit indiscriminately at the expense of the members of the class. To be a punster, is no praise, — rather it is usually an appellation of opposite merit. But the puns that were born in John ' s nimble mind were classic, unique, and actually funny. At the beginning of Senior year, John passed his moments on crutches. We used to offer him sympathy for his misfortune, but those puns showed that he never needed sympathy. His is the undaunted character that will make good, come what may. So we have few fears for John on this account. Nor should we forget that he has been an essential element in bringing the Boston College band to the fore. During his four years he has lent his musical talents for the band. Yet, not alone to the musical club has his attention been turned. His ac- tivities in the various clubs to which he belonged were legion. So, in saying goodbye to such an active member of our class, we send him our sincerest hopes for continued attainment. . . . Damon and Pythias . . .

Known to few of his classmates because of his tendency to keep himself in the background, yet there is much to be said of him. As a student, Tom applied himself to his various studies with a vigor which was astounding for so quiet a fellow. Tom entered the Sodality in his Freshman year, and busied himself with various activities throughout his college days. In his Junior year, he actively joined the Business Academy. No doubt he dreamed of the days when he would be an active member of the business world. As a supple- ment to his elective, he entered the Economics Acad- emy, in which he gave indications that this was his walk in life, clearly marked out for him. The activities of the Radio Club also were of interest to Tom. Four years have passed for Tom, and as we look back upon our too brief companionship, we only regret that we had not seen more of him. hlowever we are assured that, judging from his scholastic work, he will be supremely successful in whatever undertaking he attempts. . . .

And now after enjoying his com- pany for four short years, we are loathe to see him depart without briefly commenting upon his busy days. Due to his decided resolution to follow the medical career, Eli found little time to enter into the field of other collegiate activities. But the reports coming from the Labs fully compensate for his seeming lack of interest in the academics of the College. Commencement has begun for this son of the Pine Tree State and in a few short years from now we will probably hear that Dr. Darveau has performed another delicate operation and once more saved a life to the world. For we know that he will be a surgeon of outstanding skill. We wish our class- mate the most sincere good wishes for success. And with this hope in his mind we are certain that he will soon slowly but surely reach the peak of glory and be able to give back to his Alma Mater, by his note- worthy work, that energy and untiring effort which she instilled into him in his College days. ...

Neither did we until we met its representative, — Fred Delaney. Fred is a candidate for the distinction of the man who travelled farthest to attend class as he commuted each morning for three years. FHis record ended in Senior, however, since his domicile has been situated in Winthrop. Fred has been quiet and, on the whole, quite willing to shade the class activities with a worthy background and for this he has become ap- preciated by his classmates. The one characteristic that predominates in Fred ' s make-up, is his absolutely carefree debonair attitude. Never have difficulties been an insurmountable force. Somehow or other he lets them solve themselves, and they always followed his decision. Aside from this, Fred has been a promi- nent member of the Fulton Debating Society for two years; and also an active member of both the hiistory Academy and the Ethics Academy. We feel sincere admiration for Fred as being a student, who has contributed his share to make the fame of Boston College ' s individuality be willingly accepted. Wish- ing you all the good things the future of life possesses, we have a strong and well-grounded suspicion that you will eventually be favored, Fred. . . .

And now we present one member known to the Class as Dominic John De Stefano; to be known in future to the medical world as the Dr. De Stefano. Possessing as he does a somewhat studious and dig- nified mien which will be of inestimable value, Dominic will undoubtedly attain recognition for merit in his chosen profession. We say this unhesi- tatingly, for we know that his calibre, coupled with his talents and knowledge, will eventually enable him to achieve his goal. His steadfastness and refusal to be daunted by the most intricate problems will earn him his M.D., which will serve merely as a passport to wider fields of endeavor. Despite the hours of confinement in classroom and laboratory, and the time necessarily spent in study, Dom did not neglect the activities of the College. Athletics found him enrolled in the track squad. The Economics Academy had him numbered among its most active participants as one who evinced a true interest in its every discussion. So in sending Dominic forth, Boston College is losing one of her favorite students but is giving to the world a man who is a credit to its ideals of training. . . .

DEVICO Somerville, Mass. Track 1, 2; Biology Seminar 4; Sodality 1, 2,- History Academy 1; Physics Academy 3. Short years ago, B. C. High sent us Tony, a price- less gift who attended class with us for two years. When lo ! he showed us he had acquired much knowledge and, to prove his ability, elected the pre-med course. Now he is a full-fledged Knight of the Test Tubes with a hobby of studying bugs. We have hopes that in a few years from his vast store of knowledge he may discover a way of actually curing friend Gerson of that sportsman ' s disease. Tony has touched all the high spots in life, from Revere Beach to way down in the Maine woods. And Maine ' s memories, fragrant with pleasant episodes, will al- ways refresh him. Tony ' s chief weaknesses may be summed up by mentioning B. U. coeds, an addiction to the Joe Penner craze, and a devotion to the study of organic chemistry. But Tony is a dependable youngster. You could always feel certain that he would bring some morning newspaper to the first class. We all appreciated his thoughtfulness. Besides being dependable and entertaining, he was ha- bitually jolly, intelligent, ambitious, and worthy of an encomium for his stick-to-it-iveness. Tony has our bet. Our money is on him. . . .

Some one has ably said, To be small is no dis- tinction, but to be great in your smallness, is. We of ' 35 know by experience how true this epigram is, because we have spent our years here in the com- pany of little Joe. hHis droll ways often caused no slight disturbance in class, especially in Junior Philosophy, where Father hHarding was constantly advising him to get up off his knees. When the fellows frowned with pre-examination blues, they were al- ways revived by the cheer and humor of this little fellow, who had a variety of funny ways. A steady type, who can be relied upon in every emergency, Joe is a perfect example of the genus, a perfect fellow. Then, in addition to all these attributes with which he made friendships so easily, Joe had a touch of praiseworthy aggressiveness that will carry him far in life. Whether Joe joins the ranks of Everett ' s school teachers or takes his place in the business world, we drz sure that he, like David of old, armed with his natural determination, his ability and his pleasant way, will overcome the many ob- stacles which may strew his path. . . .

If we doubted that tfie brevity of pfiysical stature hindered Frank ' s progress while a student, it was dispelled when his athletic capabilities and mental powers became evident to the class. His four years of attending class has exhibited a persistence towards success in scholarship which was worthy of emulation by his confederates. In Freshman, Frank found time for baseball, French Academy and the Marquette. FHence, as merely a Freshman, we perceived his knowledge of what constitutes a well-rounded edu- cation, — physical and mental development, yet all the while not neglecting the spiritual element. And this added perspective, which enabled him to choose, no doubt, his future career (as his choice of a Latin elective indicates) developed so that it even in- fluenced his companions. Ralph Ambrose, himself, will testify that Frank had a peculiar habit of causing an unwonted blush to spread about the former ' s physi- ognomy. Frank, like all of us, has a future before him — one that we hope is brimming with good fortune and a worthy success. F e has selected his path, probably sooner than most of us, and we feel certain, morally so, that this member of ours will plod a persistant way to the desired goal. . . .

Easily identified, even from afar, by his fiery red hair, Red has become a familiar sight on the cam- pus. Popular, not only with his fellow students, but also with his professors, his quiet demeanor served him in good stead, for, as he did not have much to say, he could not arouse the antipathy of anyone. When there was work to be done, however, he did not shirk; he bore his share willingly and well. In the many activities of which he was a part, his presence was known more by his actions than by his words. FHe was an integral part of each organization, and although he never sought either the managerial or judicial positions in them, he was, nevertheless, present when needed. Milton once said, They also serve who only stand and wait. h ow truly this bespeaks Red. hHe goes forth unheralded and un- sung, but truly appreciated by those who were privileged to know the real man beneath the quiet exterior. It is our belief, that, in years to come, we shall behold Red carrying on to higher and further conquests, always reflecting credit upon his Alma Mater. Silent men are not easily found, and we, having discovered one, are proud of him. . . . so I says to him . . . do you know your Ethics? . . . neither do I . . . had to listen to Donohue ' s crooning . . . even read D ' s dog- geral . . . kept De Veso posted in Pedagogy. 58 U B EUGENE DONALDSON Readville, Mass.

If one were to seek out true friendship, he need only make the acquaintance of Gene, as he is famil- iarly known by his classmates. In spite of the many hours spent as supervisor of the students employed in the Library, Gene became one of the scholastic luminaries of the Class of ' 35. In this way he upheld the tradition of the Donaldson family at Boston College. On all occasions his keeness of intellect was manifested, but especially so in the discussions held in sociology. Gene, no doubt, will come out on top in an argument on any phase of philosophy or the classics. To him as chairman belongs the credit for that memorable Sophomore Supper Dance. Then in Senior when the assignments for the SUB TURRI were announced, we found that to Gene was given the very difficult task that befalls the Biography Editor. It was a tribute to his efficiency, as the position required a man who could do things right, and get them done on time. Just as his dependability here stood him in good stead, we are confident that in the business world his all-around efficiency will merit him a part of which he is deserving. . . .

If versatility adds to glory, then Paul has already attained the heights,- for his career on the gridiron has displayed his varied talents to us. He came from English High, where he captained the football team. Here at B. C. his capabilities were recognized and he was used first at end, then tackle, then at guard, and he finally captured the first-string center berth. Off the field he kept up his divergent abilities. Many times has Bing Crosby been put to shame by his golden tenor voice; his poetry was a thing of delight to his classmates, and consternation to his professors. Any Friday evening found him consorting with Kivie, McGaff or Joe Connors. Bachelors are scarce these days but Paul, in his indifference to the female sex, indicates that he is to be amongst their select ranks. One of the finest and most popular men at the Heights, Paul was known to all the members of his class, and was highly esteemed by his teachers, for never was there a blemish upon his record. When he leaves here to continue his conquests, he will leave behind him a pleasant glow of good fellowship and high regard. . . .

In presenting Joe ' s portrait, we are faced with a difficult yet pleasant task. For a biographer might fill these spaces with a flowery phrases which, though really deserved, yet might seem to be just so much idle verbiage. Or one might simply catalogue his virtues and let the reader form his own judgment. But we realize that all do not know Joe ' s merits, and so we must write. In the classroom he was quiet (ex- cept when Murphy was near), and thorough in his work; in his associations he was ever the perfect gentleman, and the acme of congeniality. Always active in class affairs, credit is due him for the efficiency with which he carried out his assignments, especially as Treasurer of the class for two years. A member of the managing board of the hieights in Junior and Senior, he accomplished great things toward making the college paper a real example of the journalistic art. h is favorite pastime is sailing the bounding main, and last summer he went as far as Europe. On the stormy seas of life, we know Joe will prove himself an able navigator, and will, with- out much effort, finally reach the haven of success. . . .

An ingratiating personality, a generous mixture of ability, coupled with the fact that he comes from that progressive city of Maiden, and you have a young enterprising gentleman named Bob Donovan. A firm supporter of everything B. C, he has lent his presence to many a college activity. Bob is the answer to your question as to whether work is reconcilable with studies. Few of us realized that Bob worked about nine hours every night. One would never guess that this cheerful and energetic youth had just completed so many hours of tedious labor, to see him in the lunch room, discussing some of his social activities with Towle. Good natured, a pleasing conversation- alist, one could not help but enjoy his company, hlis choice of law for an elective was most appropriate, for with a voice and a mind especially adapted for debating, he is sure to attain great heights in the courts of the country. FHis intelligence and accurate solution of cases in the law class evidences clearly the presence of latent abilities which will come to light in the future and make us proud of his being in the class of ' 35. . . .

If, in five or six years, you should happen to be in the vicinity of Beverly Farms, be sure to drop in and see Dr. William Dougherty. A true Knight of the Test Tube was Bill and he is destined to become one of the most successful M.D. ' s in the class. Whenever you saw Bill and Griff with their heads together, you could be fairly certain that bugs was the topic of conversation. Even when they were engaging in public activities, it wasn ' t long before they were en- grossed in biological discussion. Then it was a hope- less case for the only sound was that concerning protoplasms, chromosomes, corpuscles and the like. Aside from his pre-med work. Bill ' s greatest pleasure was derived from lazily drifting over the body of water near the North Shore in his sailboat which was appropriately named the FHo Hum. Bill ' s excellent scholastic record here at the Heights is sure to be an advantage in his chosen profession. It would be entirely ludicruous to wish him success in the pro- fession he has selected. We know that he will be another of the successful practitioners that have graduated from Boston College. . . .

To know Tom is to like him. To converse with him, a privilege. And who is there who could help liking a man with the kind heart, the cheery disposition, the staunch soul that is Tom ' s? We admire him too, because he knew that the value of his education lay in what he made it. Another source of the esteem in which he is held by all, is his persistency in sticking to his opinion or point of view until he is given positive proof to the contrary. No intellectual brow- beating, no ridicule, no sense of mere expediency could make him change. In this world of shifting standards and fickle minds, there is need for men like Tom. But his persistency did not make of him a despot. Many are the times when his dry wit or sprightly comments have livened up those little gatherings of students so common about the campus, especially so, since those who know him but slightly expect to find one reserved, shy, and sharing his thoughts only with himself. We do not know what Tom has in mind after Commencement, but, wherever he goes, whatever he undertakes, his worth insures his success. . . .

For, foremost among the talents with which he is bountifully gifted, is the keen foresight that long ago enabled him to choose the path that he was to follow in later years. And during these past years, he has prepared himself by a steady application, — the result of which is indeed both admirable and w orthy of imitation. From Freshman to Senior, he has been among the few leaders in scholastic endeavour; and the records give testimony of his excellence in all that concerned the classics and sciences. Yet, let us not give the impression that John is a grind. Rare was the afternoon that did not find him laboring in the interests of the Stylus, whose business affairs he managed, or the French Academy, the SUB TURRI or various other clubs. His activities were numerous, his achievements great, but it is for himself, that he will live in our minds. In his noble occupation of the future, his golden disposition, his desire and ability to assist others, will surely prove a blessing to countless souls. . . .

Bob is in the lunchroom clean- ing up (not the dishes, but the proceeds from these four-handed card games). Duff has spent his past summers down on the Cape with Dave Concannon, but on opposing nines. He is rather fortunate in that he has two residences in the Watch City, one with his family, the other at Nutting ' s. Besides being adept at baseball, bridge, dancing, crooning, and ping-pong, and story-telling, he ranks second to none as being an infectious comedian in antithesis to his seriosity. Still, in spite of all his notable accomplish- ments. Bob is most enjoyable company, and we know that his unfailing light-heartedness will prove a success. ...

Here we have another example of perseverance conquering all. Bill was a faithful constituent who worked on, unheralded, in order that his better known brothers may attain the coordination required for perfect finesse. For example. Bill was a member of the football squad during his college years, per- haps not gaining vast recognition, but sho ' ing his true loyalty and love for his Alma Mater. Each night after practice, he had to travel back to Taunton, holding as he did the long distance record for com- muting among the football players and for this he deserves a public recommendation to the group of distant visitors. A man of few words was he but his comments in the Economics and Ethics Academies were always worth while; and his quiet and indus- trious nature carried him readily to a successful peak in all his subjects. hHis popularity is evidenced by the fact that he was chosen President of the Taunton B. C. Club. If Bill continues on his way in the same manner as was his at Boston College, we know that he will be a welcome addition to the group of 20th Century Socratics. Armed with all his talents.

Quietly and unobserved, Paul came into our midst, unheralded and unsung. With quiet persistance, he has worked his way to prominence and the while he acquired many friednships. Ever willing to lend a helping hand, he possessed a constant affableness which has encouraged many of us while traversing that straight and hazardous road to success. After one year of serious endeavor in the Fulton Debating Society, during which time he was a member of the Fulton lecturers, Paul ' s efforts were crowned; for he received the honorary position of Vice-President for the first half of Senior year. Unwilling to let the fruits of his labors rest here, he joined the Ethics Academy and was chosen Secretary for a term of his Senior year. In the line of activities it might be added that never did Mr. Dugan miss a Prom either here or elsewhere. But all good things in life must come to an end, and what seems to be an apparent loss for our Alma Mater, in turn proves to be a decided gain for the world, which awaits with eagerness men of Paul ' s stamina. . . .

The tall, light complexioned, serious lad that you have met coming up the hill on any morning is Dan, a loyal collegian whose home is on the peninsular that juts into Boston Harbor. You need only to meet him once and thereafter he is your friend, hie is by no means loquacious and yet you would not call him shy. Dan merely uses fewer words and more thought. In his own quiet manner he has become proficient in whatever subject he has undertaken. Many of us seek the line of least resistance, but not so with him. In his determination to utilize French he elected this subject to console himself during his first year of philosophy, and became one of the more active mem- bers of the French Academy. As a deserving, alumnus of Boston College,, we may expect unusual things from Dan. For we know he has a sincere loyalty to his Alma Mater. Whatever he chooses as his occu- pation in life, the ability that is his, as well as the high ideals v e know he has, will combine with his education to insure that he will be well able to cope with any situation. . . .

To be sure, we all know Tom himself and what is more, we all liked him, but we found that despite his conversational abilities he never talked about himself. FHe achieved popularity among us, not by self-praise, nor by an even moderate seeking of the spot-light, but because we found in Tom some- thing we could really love. Do not ask us precisely what it was. For it was no one thing, but a grand composite of likeable traits, backed up by real ability and a nature that was deep and sympathetic. We could feel on approaching Tom, that here was some- one who would listen with interest to our trouble, and would help whole heartedly, without a thought for personal motives. FHis gentlemanliness extended even to his appearance, for he was always the neat, well-groomed youth that his personality demanded as its compliment.

Thus, perhaps, will we greet Paul in a score of years, for his manner and expression have whispered to us that he has a lean- ing toward politics. That he has the talent and ability to go far in the world of statecraft, we do not doubt for the moment. As an extemporaneous speaker, Paul is at his best. Time and again he has amazed his hearers with arguments highly intellectual and never lacking in cogent reasoning, and all this without preparation. Imagine, then, how persuasive he can be when he takes the time to prepare a speech. Paul devotes much of his time and energy to assisting in various religious campaigns and projects. The furtherance of Catholic Action has been one of his ideals, and he has accomplished great things in this line. But he is not always serious. Quite the contrary. Let someone have the blues ... a few minutes in Paul ' s presence will quickly cheer them up again. Yes, Paul has been a true and faithful friend and guide to all of us.

Here is one of the reasons why the twinkle in Jack Ryder ' s eye is never dimmed. Frank, when he entered B. C. four years ago, reported for track, and has since been a star in his own right. His work on the cinders and boards was both colorful and de- pendable,- and when he swung into the home stretch his long, loping strides were a delight to the fans. In much the same manner has he carried on in class. His work there has also been dependable, and as for color, well, ask anyone who had a seat beside him. His wit and humor has more than once been the cause of a small riot in Father Corrigan ' s Ethics lec- tures, and Bill Gibiin couldn ' t sleep when Frank came to class. Fun loying though he may be, he has his serious moments, as his marks well testify, nor has jollity ever caused trouble to his profs. Now that he is going into the final lap, we who have known him for four years feel sure that, when the winners are finally announced in the race for success, the name of Eaton will be well in the fore. . . .

Sodality 1, 2; hHockey 2, 3; Heights 3, 4, SUB TURRI 4; Ethics Academy 4; Rifle Team 1, 2; Track 1, 2. A resonant voice, constant enthusiasm, and a ready wit, all of which make life a bit more pleasant for the rest of us, are to be found to a high degree in Henry. Dorchester lent him, and we adopted him, for his was a magnetic appeal, and we were attracted. A hearty laugh and jovial attitude cannot long be resisted, and so he is our best known remedy for the blues. But let it not be said that Henry scorned study. Not he. He has the facility for getting the most out of any period of study, and, as a result, it may appear to some that he does not give much time to his books. But one glance at his marks would eradicate all such thoughts. Even extra-curricular activities are not omit- ted. He is a real sports lover, and an ardent supporter of all class functions. In short, Henry possesses that pleasing combination of having the power to work when it is time to work, and playing on the proper occasion. He is surely bound to attain the heights to which he strives. Parting must come, but we are glad that it is not to be permanent. We hope to enjoy his company for many years to come, even though we drz no longer undergraduates. . . . Social service worker . . . composes poetry . • . crooner . . . scholar . . .

Jim ' s whole hearted support of the activities of the Sodality has won him the plaudits of his fellow students. As a member of the Fulton, Jim spent many a laborious hour to further the forensic interests of that society. We remember the day in Sophomore, when he presented to his class such an intelligent explanation and skillful diagram of the Greek Thea- tre, that our astonishment still lingers on. Another fact about Jim, not soon to be forgot, was his ability to be tactful, hiad he a few gray hairs and the trap- ping of Wisdom, we might term him wise, h e could diagnose a situation, and had the ability to act ac- cordingly. On his humorous side, Jim ' s major occu- pation was flicking someone ' s ear, even his own. As a friend and companion Jim made himself dear to the hearts of all by his open frankness and his kindly deeds, hie is the paragon of charity and honesty. We, who recognize his capacities and capabilities, assure the world that she is about to receive one of few, — a blessing she needs against artificial humanity. Onward, Jim, with our heartiest wishes and we know you will never betray our trust. . . Cartoonist . . . bulwark of the Sodality . . .

Chick ' s activities at the hHeights have been largely concerned with the favorite h ighla d pastime. Besides being the factotum of the managing side of the golf team. Chick wields a powerful mashie as Captain, hlowever his athletic endeavors have extended further than golf. In Fresh- man, he strove endlessly on the gridiron. For four years he has been active on the Athletic and Student Councils as the representative both of his class and the golf team. In his capacity as Chief Usher, Chick solved many knotty problems which concerned the seating of the thousands in the stadium during the football season. As is evident, he was a very active man throughout his years at the FHeights and when the school or the Class of ' 35 planned any affairs, social or otherwise, he was always willing to do his share to make the event a success. Chick was a real asset to the college and class. Because of his schol- astic record and his loyalty to a cause. Chick will gain success in future life whether he turns toward the world of business or casts his lot with the teaching profession. . . . Guardian of A. A. . . . Mr. Harrington ' s assistant . . .

That one word gives a true pic- ture of Eddie in all his glory. Surely nothing seems to worry him, and he finds pleasure in everything. As to his ability for entertaining others, we need only ask Joe Ryan and John Pestier, both of whom have gone on two trips with Eddie, and insist that they were a success chiefly because of him. Together they shared a room in the Victoria on that memorable Fordham trip, and were together again when they invaded Western Maryland. Eddie provided most of the fun on both occasions, and how he found his way out of Peanut Joe ' s has since been a wonder to all who visited there. Fun-loving Eddie may be found at any time in the midst of a group of students, amusing them with his humorous quips and hilariously funny stories. Now, like all of us, he is standing upon the threshold of life, and we know that, when, in later years, we peer into the shifting mists of the future, we will see the staunch form of Eddie tower- ing above the mists on the firm rock of success, hold- ing steadfast against the ravages of wild speculation and unpractical theories. . . .

Yes, this rosy-cheeked cherub, with the dark, wavy hair is our Patrick. Charming, gay, and debonair, he has passed four years among us, and now leaves to take up the strug- gle for victory far from our green campus. Fitz was always a popular companion at the hieights, due to his cheerful good nature and his pleasing voice — for Fitz is another John McCormick, but a bashful one. On occasions when we could get him to sing for us, he displayed remarkable talent. FHis prowess is not only vocal, however, as he is also an accomplished musician. Prolific chaps, these Irishmen ! Although occasionally overcome with sombulance in class, Pat was always conspicuous and bouyant at the social functions of the college. He is a graceful dancer, and knows how to use his weight to advantage on a crowded dance floor — which really is an enviable accomplishment. Seriously, though, we think a lot of Fitz, and will be very sorry to bid goodbye to him for the last time on graduation day. There is no one for whom we wish more success, and we know the whole senior class joins us in saying Bon Voyage, Fitz. . . .

In all ways of life, in all colleges, few there are who can do many things well. Our candidate for this category of exceptional is Bill Fitzsimons. Com- bining scholastic ability with the capability for in- dulging in a wide diversity of outside interests. Bill still found time to cultivate the difficult art of being friendly to all. Any afternoon would find him busy at something, whether it be debating, or thespiat- ing, or down in the manager ' s office at the helm of the baseball team. Or perhaps one would find him in the Rotunda selling copies of the Christian Science Monitor to the beloved Freshmen. No wonder one of his minor distinctions is his being a member of the exclusive Battery D. Personally we opine that Bill knew too much Greek for his own good. Although we have anxiously examined his conduct for dele- terious effects, to date we are forced to admit we have found none. But then Bill must have a strong constitution. However, these are just so many scat- tered details of the make-up of a man whose person- ality and activities has put a new meaning in the College seal for us. No longer is it just a motto. To excel always ' has a definite meaning for us now, as we have seen it demonstrated in Bill. . . .

Track 1, 2; Fulton 4; Radio Club 4; Econ- omics Academy 4,- Soph Prom Committee,- Junior Week Committee,- Picture Committee 4; South Shore B. C. Club. The young man whose picture tops this column hails from a city that reared one president and, who knows, may have the opportunity of rearing another. A good trackman in secondary school, George showed some fast stepping in his first two years at the Heights. The opening of Junior year, however, found him a con- valescent following an operation,- so a promising pair of running shoes were regretfully relegated to the proverbial closet. Studies never seemed to bother George. To him they were just one of the cares that infest the day, a necessary evil, but not demand- ing of too much labor. We must confess that there are some who have harbored a latent grudge against George since the night of the Junior Prom when they had to help change a flat tire, with the temperature 20 below zero. But seriously, his friends have come to know him as one man who rarely asks a favor, yet who is always ready to help a classmate and assist them. For this reason he faithfully served as a mem- ber of the photographic committee which ordinar- ily difficult, was dispatched with customary fidelity. Besides he was a gentleman acquainted with the ways and means of being agreeable; but over and above all else — a true friend. . . .

Steven wrote. He wrote neither as a crude begin- ner nor matter-of-fact journalist, but as tfie scholarly artist, a little disturbed by the vain, ephemeral dis- tractions of most undergraduates. So ardent was he in his quest of the bonis artibus, he even forsook the comfort of riding home each afternoon in an automobile. Always he would be walking, regard- less of weather conditions. Daily he could be seen passing the reservoirs, a tall, broad-shouldered figure topped by a full-crowned Homburg hat with brim upturned. It might easily be inferred the sonnet in the Stylus, the essay inthe hHeights and the sparkling dissertation upon some institution were born in those solitary walks. True, his affiliation with the hieights was perhaps a dormant tendency for him to narrow the vision of his pen from the truth of all time to the fact of the day. Yet all were confident he would not weaken. Alas ! Crises come in the lives of all: some early, others late. Steve ' s came on Dec.13,1934when peering through the windows of the Heights, he mur- mured, Yeah, Life! and forthwith in true collegiate fashion, turned down the brim of the Homburg, dented its sides, and rode off the campus in the rum- ble of a roadster — the journalist. . . .

There is one man among the members of the class whose name is familiar to both the Senior and the Freshman. His good nature is one of his outstanding characteristics. His humor and debonair attitude al- ways lessened the class room monotony. Every time a laugh circulated during class hours, one could trace it easily to Jackie. The football team received his most loyal support by his ability as a cheer-leader. He also played a prominent part in the social success of the school, being that added touch to the Junior Prom. During his stay here, he has accomplished deeds worthy of the highest commendation, beside being selected to popular posts in the class ballot. He can be compared to a great river rolling slowly and steadily onward, and just as the foaming crest of a rapids lends a sparkling zest to the river, so Jackie ' s wit frequently sprang from behind his sombre exter- ior. And to carry out the simile, just as the river will eventually reach the sea, so we know that Jackie will slowly but surely attain an honorable end. So, Vale, Jack, and may the floods of fortune every flow upon you. . . .

As we set ourselves to record the characteristics and achievements of hHenry, it dawns upon us that they are many and varied. Four years at college served him in good stead. In Freshman the French Academy, the Marquette Debating Society and Sodality were Henry ' s activities. We recall that in Sophomore Henry was the editor of the comic journal in our famous Section E. Not given entirely to frivolity, Henry found time to contribute many serious articles to the Stylus. His ability as an amateur playwright found an outlet over a Boston radio station. These bits of humorous fantasy were not only composed but presented by himself. During his career here at the college, this pleasant cup of nimble wit proved an inexhaustible source of voluminous humor and satire. To anyone not knowing him, he appeared very dis- tant and reserved. But this quiet demeanor was pierced on any occasion by these pleasant and serious thrusts, — the effects of a continual mental activity. Senior year thanked him for his contributions to the well being of collegiate activity by bestowing upon him the position of a member of the Editorial Council and far more difficult, — Feature Editor of the Year Book.

Sodality 1, 2, 3, A, Rifle Club 3, A, Greek Academy 1 . Joe ' s profession is that whose war-cry is, Strike three, you ' re out. Yes, an umpire, and an efficient one. But then, we cannot imagine Joe as being in- efficient in any undertaking. What we like about Joe is his quickness to defend a friend from unjust attack, but he is ever willing to allow punishment to be meted out to one who deserves it. The sense of justice in Joe is supreme, and this, together with his effic- iency, explains his success not only as athletic official, but also as a student. Away out there in Natick he has earned a reputation which is surpassed by no other native of Eddie Casey ' s home town. Joe ' s popularity is immediately evident to all who venture into a certain ice cream stand in the outskirts of Natick. And by the way, it is a known fact that the business on the verge of bankruptcy suddenly spurted forward in sales upon Joe ' s advent. We know Joe, and we recognize his capabilities and appreciate his disposition toward people in general. Accordingly, we can assure the world that early in his life ' s work, he will gain recognition for achievement because his past life is a definite foreshadowing of his ability to be prominent. . . .

Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Rifle Team 1, 2; History Academy 1, 2. With the forceful power of a philosopher of old, Ed was first introduced to us four years ago. One marks him down at once as a hidden force of energy, ready to discuss at length any topic. Clever, sauve, gentlemanly and absolutely a good friend; this is a brief summary of our classmate. Ed attended many of the college social gatherings and the many haunts of the socialites whether at Rosebud or any other Boston bright spot. It has been said in private circles that a dance without Forbsie was entirely incomplete. For Ed ' s first two years, besides extra-college activi- ties, he apportioned his time between studies and various school activities. FHowever with the coming of Physics and Philosophy, he was forced to give up his recreation and devote most of his spare time to scholarly work. For one, the rifle-team thereby lost a very excellent and promising member from its squad. As we look back upon our too brief companionship with Ed, we can only hope for the day when we shall meet again in the activity of life where success and pleasure are compatible. . . .

Brighton added another worthy name to its list of illustrious sons when John chose to come to these Gothic towers in search of an education. That his search was not in vain is evidenced by his scholastic success from Freshman to Senior. Red also proved himself a friend to many, hie was a life-saver to the last-minute boys who stood down on Commonwealth Avenue in quest of a ride, and more than one young man can thank Red that he did not receive too many cuts. A seemingly carefree lad was he, as all will testify who have watched him make his way non- chalantly through the different classics, the puzzling sciences, finally reaching the crowning days of phil- osophy. No doubt that same pleasing and cheery disposition, that candid and unassuming manner will contribute much toward his future well-being. FHe, like most of us, has not decided upon a profession, but, if, as his choice of an elective might indicate, his thoughts tend toward service to the state, and he does toss his hat into the political ring, his host of friends and his ability will stand him in good stead.

Football 2; Chairman Sports Night 4; Radio Club 3, 4; South Shore B. C. Club. Class functions have always been one of the most enjoyable phases of college life. The men behind these affairs rarely receive the credit to which they are entitled, and this is especially true in the case of Nick Franey. Willing to lend a hand at all times, he was one of our stand-bys whenever we wished to stage a banquet, a smoker, or any such entertain- ment. Remember the Sophomore Banquet, when Nick put on the wrestling exhibition with Charlie Greeley, and almost landed on a member of the faculty? Re- member that famous Abington Barn Dance, another of his many social ventures? And who can forget the Junior intra-murals which he originated? For real fun, his projects were unsurpassed. But his four years at the FHeights were not all fun for, in order to finance his course, Nick worked in his spare time. It has al- ways been a source of wonder to us where he found the time. Yet, there were few activities to which he did not lend his cheering presence. Dynamic ener- gy, a strict sense of loyalty, and the desire to help, made Nick an important factor in the success of the class of ' 35. . . .

Russ worked evenings to finance his years at college and this fact, coupled with a consideration of the success he attained, demands from us a goodly mede of admiration. Indeed, the responsibility, he took upon himself, has borne its own fruit and has mani- fested itself in his character, for a manly youth he is, able and self-reliant. FHe speaks in a business-like manner, frankly and to the point, yet in so pleasant a fashion, that, those who listen, are won over by his personal appeal, hie was a really aggressive student, for the difficult subjects of the pre-medical course all yielded to his attack, and always he was up-to-date in the matter being discussed in class. Despite, how- ever, his diligent pursuit of the books, Russ has not become immune to other delights, but displays on the contrary a well-rounded personality, with a sense of humor which has brightened many an hour for his companions, and a healthy appetite for outdoor sport which has been unscathed by his many hours of sedentary labor. In conclusion we may say of Russ, that if the capacity for good work means anything, the future for him is indeed promising. . . . Construction boss . . .

FRENO Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 2, 3; Ethics Academy 4. Sam came from English High School with an en- viable scholastic record which he has maintained throughout his four years with us. True, studies have taken first place in his life, but his quiet, cheerful, and generous spirit has endeared him to the hearts of his class mates. Hiis first love is mathematics, though he has been an honor student in the classics as well, hlowever, despite his proclivity for branches of study which most of us gladly avoided, Sam is rather a happy-go-lucky type, and never has he let a scholas- tic pit-fall or problem cause him any undue worry. In Father Tobin ' s physics class, while many of us were being thrown for a loss, he complacently continued to keep his marks above the A rating. For relax- ation he likes to travel, and is not particularly fussy as to where. In fact, his wanderings have taken him from Quincy to the World ' s Fair in Chicago. What his aims are might be deduced from the fact that Calculus and Physics were his electives. Whatever profession he may choose, we can be sure that his success will be as great as is due to his persevering effort and unceasing endeavor. . . .

If you happen to be motoring along the Newbury- port Turnpike some day during the Summer, and see a group of children playing ring-around-the-rosie, with a good-natured, lantern-jawed chap in the center, you ' ve gazed upon our Ray. To see him then, one would never think him one of our most versatile athletes, a man who has made a name for himself in hockey, baseball and football, hie abandoned foot- ball after his Freshman year, and spent his time on hockey and baseball. In his Junior and Senior years, he was one of the varsity catchers. FHis favorite though, was hockey. FHis ability was recognized in his Junior year, and he was elected captain of a very successful team. While, he did not give much time to baseball at the FHeights he was for many years the star backstop of the Danvers Twilight League team. As far as popularity goes, there is no need to question in regard to Ray. Although one of the College ' s best athletes he was unassuming. This made him even better liked. As his athletic career has shown, he can fit himself to meet any conditions and so we prophesy for him the fullest measure of success. . . . Playground director . . .

As a man he is a candid, determined. Cath- olic gentleman whom we are proud to have known. hlis character has been finely moulded by college ex- perience into one of well-rounded culture. In the pursuit of his studies, his rugged grit and stubborn- ness of attack were conspicuous to us all. A man of high intelligence, he adopted one of the most diffi- cult courses of the curriculum. This course, leading to the honorable profession of medicine, tested his native ability to the utmost, yet found Dick equal to its challenge. His nature is one of kindness and the willingness to sacrifice, those qualities which are so essential to an understanding doctor. In sending him forth to a medical school, Boston College need never feel hesitant that Dick will falter on the steepness of the grade. His facility in both chemistry and biliogy, his attitude of being perfectly in his element when in the laboratory, all mark him as having a true medical vocation. In parting, we wish you good fortune, Dick. . . . Certain address on Beacon St. , . .

Ve do well to call me chief, — immortal words, which will be associated with Bill as long as any member of Sophomore E of two years ago is still alive. Even when all other events have slipped into the maze of the past. Bill bespoke the masterpiece in a manner, entirely novel, of which even Sparticus himself would be proud, — to say nothing of the effect on the scholarly gladiators. Besides his oratorical accomplishments. Bill has been a loyal trackster for four years, in which sport he was outstanding at St. Charles ' in Waltham. But this ability is overshadowed by his reticence to discuss his past accomplishments or future plans. It may be prosaic to mention a smiling countenance in a biography but there are exceptions to most rules. After all, it is not Chief Gallagher if the grin is not there. We have been unable to unearth what he plans to do when he leaves but, whatever it is, his happy outlook will be no hindrance.

From New Bedford comes Paul, a true example of the art of laughter, to wfiom a quarterly report meant nothing but a necessary occurrence. However, he had no cause to worry over them, for he studied when the time came, and thus avoided many of the pitfalls into which some of his classmates fell. For spirit, Paul surpassed most of us. At ail the games, his voice was raised in encouragement to the team. That fervor, which was bred in him amid the excite- ment of New Bedford ' s whaling industry, served his college well, and was an example to all. During his first three years, Paul journeyed to his home, but in Senior, he changed temporarily to Boston, thus affording him more time for enjoying the many social activities atte ndant upon college hfe. Although he did not engage in many extra-curricular interests offered by the college, nevertheless, those into which he did enter were benefited by his indomitable spirit and his seemingly unending knowledge of vari- ous subjects, he has the faculty of getting the most out of anything he undertakes, and for this reason we, who have known him, feel sure that success will be his. . . . often mistaken for Ted . . . one of the Mattapan gang, although he lives in New Bedford . . . lived in Boston during his Senior year.

For there indeed was Frank ' s element, and there he was perfectly content to establish his knowl- edge. h owever his ability was not confined to this sphere, for had he the time and inclination, he could have competed with the best of them on the cinder path, a fact which, due to his natural shyness, has been little known. Then, too, he is quite a connois- seur of popular music and on the dance floor he disports himself with the utmost finesse. Added to all this he has a dinstinctive facilty in free verse writing, which talent, though yet in the infant stage, will, we hope, not be latent and will carve his niche in the literary world. Despite all these accomplish- ments, most of us will probably remember Frank above all for his real wit which probably reached its climax with a rendition of selections from Shakespeare be- tween the halves of that so rainy B. C.-FH. C. game. May that quiet wit and unknown power of cognition carry you on the ether waves to success. . . .

Sociality 1, 2, 3; Fencing Team 4; Ethics Academy 4. It is not easy to describe a fellow such as Charlie. He baffles one, he is so many sided. The whole class knows the gay, light-hearted Charlie, the Charlie who amused us A ' ith his nonsensical (or were they so nonsensical) witticisms and his romantic whims, in which this modern Don Quixote verily tilted with windmills. This is thesideof Charlie that is so evident to all his classmates. Vet there is another side not known to all, but reserved for the few who have known him longer and better. This is the serious nature underlying the surface of laughter. It shows him to be a straight thinking, hard working chap with a wealth of that rare quality — common sense. For underneath all his refreshing light-heartedness, we have often been delighted to find in Charlie a serious understanding and a deep fraternal sympathy and interest in the problems of others. And Charlie knew how to tackel his own problems too. hlis scholastic achievements are not to be passed over in silence, despite the fact that he spent lengthy hours working in the Library. So when success finally comes his way, we know he will be ready and waiting. . . . Basl etbdll player . . . Peabody House Romans . . . inveterate walker . . . carries big piles of books. HORACE M.

Mickey came to the hieights from the hluntington School with the reputation of being one of the finest young pitchers in prep school ranks. But unfortu- nately, an injury to his arm cut short a promising baseball career, but not until he had exhibited his worth as a member of the yearling nine. But Mickey ' s collegiate activities did not stop there. His attention was given to other student activities and he became a popular leader in the numerous clubs throughout the college. His knowledge and interest in horses was astounding, especially during the season when the bangtails were racing at the nearby racing em- poria. As a purveyor of sartorial elegance, Mickey is unsurpassed. He of the blue-black hair and flashing smile has brightened up many a weary conversation between classes with his valuable and pleasant chat- ter. It is of little wonder, then that for many years to come he will remain in our thoughts of college life and its essence — an independent character. Harvard Dental School will number him among its students this Fall and we feel a soothing comfort that the fallacious shingle of Painless Dentist will not apply to Mitch and his capable forceps. . . .

Never during the four years could a professor say that Al shirked his duty by disregarding an assignment. That he is what the stu- dents call a plugger is an undeniable fact, and the outstanding characteristic of his makeup is his sincer- ity. Although a likeable gentleman he is v ont to argue only after proof of a statement is given; previous to his assent he debates even with those who have no interest except for the sake of argument, h e has a fine philosophic mind, a clear understanding of the correct sequence of facts, and could easily be an outstanding lawyer. The members of the pre-medical course praise him highly for his outstanding and re- markable comprehension of pre-medical courses. Such a character would undoubtedly be a welcome addition to the medical profession — and this is his chosen field — still his classmates detest the thought of this silent, capable leader devoting his efforts to the benefit of a few, when politics would readily recognize him, or, as an outstanding member of the bar the public at large would make him its agent to act for the common good. . . . objections in Ethics . . .

Gino is one of the most popular members of the class judging by his election as class scientist. He is acclaimed in every circle, hauled into every argu- ment, and made a sharer and participant in every prank and joke, hie shows a boundless energy, a quickly-started volubility in conversation and a keen mental activity. In pursuit of his degree in Science, he has shown himself to have the qualities of a true scientist — an alert mentality and an unsatiated and unending curiosity as to the how and why of things. He is capable of the most dogged and untiring pur- suit of a subject, resting only when he has achieved his purpose, and then only long enough to set his eye and mind on some new object. Gino has carried his energy, his enthusiasm, and his eager excitement outside of class and into extra-curricular activities. As President of the Musical Clubs, he has given full play to his energetic nature. As leader of the band, he has delighted, amused, and inspired us at the football games. One gets to know such a personality intimately and in the same proportion to feel sorrow at the parting. But we know that when he reaches his goal, he will still be the same genial, energetic, unspoiled one whom we can call friend. . . . Tilio ' s cousin . . .

For here we find exuberant enthusiasm and a youthful, carefree spirit superimposed upon a steady foundation of level-headed common sense. For though he was the leader or ready seconder of almost every prank, and was ever to be found in the midst of the fun and where the laughs were loudest, he never acted unwisely but rather according to a clearly discerning judgement which always chose the most advantageous course, hie had the happy faculty of enjoying everything in its place, and of living a life in which all those things, proper to youth, found a welcome. As a man about town and a model of sartorial propriety. Bill was outstanding, and his ad- vice on where to go and what to wear was always held in high esteem by the rest of us. Social affairs, studies, and practical pursuits were blended by him most harmoniously to form a very desirable scheme of life in which nothing was neglected and everything was enjoyed. By way of summary, we can say that it takes no gift of prophetic art to foretell for Bill a very happy and successful career. . . . never keeps appointments . . . heroic rescue with Joe Curran . . .

In every class there are one or two quiet, unassum- ing individuals who are known to shun all publicity and fame. Instead, in their own quiet way, they bring honor to the school because of their scholastic ability and general cultured manner. We were indeed for- tunate in having in our midst a man of such calibre in the person of Phil. A quiet, calm, smiling personality, he has been instrumental in making our four years at the hieights the most interesting in our lives. Although not an active participant in many of the extra-curricu- lar activities, he has shown a deep interest in the aims of these organizatons by attending all important functions. Although, in his usual manner he has re- frained from divulging his plans for the future, we would not be greatly surprised to hear, in a few years time, that Phil has passed the Bar and was serving a large group of clients. If our guess con- cerning his choice of profession is correct, we are sure that he will be a credit to the legal profession when he calls upon his knowledge of Blackstone to solve the intricacies and entanglements of law. . . . quiz whizz . . . gets hot tips from Mike Gerson . . . may be a lawyer . . . studies constantly. 79 O o o JOHNlPORTHOUSE Dorchester, Mass.

The inevitable maxim that always Finds itself in collegiate biographies, namely still waters run deep, could not be more aptly applied than to John Porthouse. To many it will be of wonderment how he managed to be placed near the center of the Senior section, but in a symbolical and practical way it can be easily explained. John arrived in the class of ' 35 about February 5th of this year. For four years he had been an integral part of the college life, a gentleman whom everyone looked upon as a decided asset to Boston College. Because of a sudden and serious illness last year he was prevented from gradu- ating with his own group. But so speedily did he ingratiate himself into our presence and confidence that we decided it vyas only proper that he appear in the midst of us, an adopted Senior for the students leaving this year. FHis mental dexterity was evidenced in his ardent pursuit of the philosophical and socio- logical studies. He seemed to dream them, and so interestingly did he discuss their problems, that only wonderment and admiration could be our proper emotions. We extend our sympathy to him for his unfortunate detention, but we have a deep feeling of pleasure that he will graduate in our numbers. . . . friend of last year ' s editor . . . bug on Sociology end Philosophy ... his sickness baffled the doctors ... ah, a mystery! . . . weakness for nurses . . . most silent man in the class.

This naturally involves many distinctions but foremost of them is his capacity for recognizing and rectifying his errors ... a truly intelligent accom- plishment and caus-j of his estimable readiness, speak- ing abstractly, to be truthful, and par I ' example, he started his career at FHoly Cross and had the wisdom to change to a college. FHis sense of friendship was another case of a loss for FHoly Cross and our gain (isn ' t that always the result when B. C. and FH. C. meet?). FHe has a good-natured and wise-cracking technique which has made him an intimate part of many of those informal extra-classroom gatherings which are the advantages of a college life. Even studiousness finds itself a part of his perfect charac- ter. Perhaps the most outstanding characteristic of Ernie ' s scholastic endeavours is his determination to uphold a point of an argument until he is thoroughly convinced of his error or his correctness. FHe is, with many others, a constituent of the Science Build- ing Association. It would be supercilious to prog- nosticate success.

And so we know why Frank is such a fine fellow and why he always will be. However, we don ' t mean to imply that Frank walks around with any holier-than-thou attitude. On the contrary, he strikes the right medium, and has shown it in his activities, for he has displayed to us that he can both give and take on the gridiron, on the track, and in the classroom, hie certainly showed great interest in things historical, for he attended every course possible in History and Government that was offered by the college. We would fail in any effort to name Frank ' s outstanding accomplishment, for no single one overshadows another. He is one of the most versatile students among us, as is evidenced by his excellence in sports, his ability to master the arts and sciences which many of us found difficult, and the gift he had for surrounding himself with a host of friends. We have come to the parting of the ways when each one shall set out on his own voyage over the sea of life.

We have spent many long hours in a diligent search for the person who always said the right thing at the right time and to the right people. We tracked him down and found him to be none other than Bill. His mentality is of that learned nature which desires to know the last cause and why of things. In a word, he is distinctly philosophic. His allies of the train journey to Lynn will substantiate our statement that he has an analytical mind. But he never became tire- some as he would always mingle with his sincere questioning a Chestertonian humor. Bill ' s quiet man- nerisms, which always produced the good effect, may be evidenced in his work as the Vice-President of the B. C. Club of Lynn, causing its rise from a mere gathering to a prominent organization of Alum- ni. We have a feeling, based on assurance, that some- time or other, his never-tiring work with biological matter will bring forth its successful fruit.

Always smiling, never ruffled, and apparently never uneasy or troubled, his very presence was a tonic. And what a hand clasp the boy has! But then it has been said, A hand clasp displays character. Charlie has been with the Class of ' 35 for but three years. So it was by good fortune that this dispenser of smiles was numbered among us. At every social function, dances or smokers, at every football game, at home or on other gridirons, Charlie was always to be found. That his presence was enjoyed is attested to by the many invitations tendered him by various men of the class. But Charlie was not just carefree, just a fellow much in demand, he was also a chap who studied. To be more exact, he was first and foremost a chap who studied. This, in a very brief way, is a sketch of a man appreciated by his class, of a man who will be missed by his class.

Something unprecedented occurred at Boston College in the Fall of 1931 when a boy of fourteen years was admitted to the Freshman Class. We were astonished and chagrined that a mere baby was to be a classmate of ours! But what a rapid transforma- tion in us after we had contacted the child Fresh- man. Young he was in age, but what mental maturity was his, what a scholarly and learned giant he proved to be! Indeed, before a week had elapsed, the entire situation was reversed. We, for all our years, were the babes of the class, the real beginners, while Bill Greenler, at 1 ' 4, was a guiding influence to us, a helpful, protecting and capable leader. And thus he has remained throughout four years of college life,- the unfailing light beckoning us into unknown regions and illuminating what was dark, dismal, and uninvit- ing. Bill ' s scholastic achievements we will sum up stating that he has been the outstanding scholar of our class. Bill ' s leaning is toward Law.

Roxbury, the cradle of political aspirations and the birthplace of political greats, continued its course of supplying gubernatorial and senatorial material when it brought the light of day to this worth son of Rox- bury whom we know as Jim. Seldom has a political rally or gathering lacked his presence. Still, Jim ' s field of endeavor was not limited to speeches and elections. FHe was a sports enthusiast, being an ac- tive basketball player, an adept referee, and a clever overseer of the score board. Jim ' s field of activity seems to be well chosen. According to present re- ports he alms at lofty political heights and many are those who expect him to reach his goal. Success cannot but come to such an energetic and pleasant disposition. Lacking the sanguine factors which mark a man as unstable, Jim has the happy faculty of being equally at home in the parlor of any luxurious Beacon Street home or entertaining the boys with hews of political candidates in that underground recess known as the Rotunda.

The easiest way to get Griff started on a lengthydiscourse concerning the latest scientific development in the medical profession is to ask any simple question con- cerning biology or chemistry. Whatever you may say. Griff certainly knew his matter and many of us would be better off, if we were as interested in our work. That trip down to Fordham was a momentous and happy one for many fellows, but few, if any, of us enjoyed it more than the Peabody Doc. ' When fellows get together, they like to recall pleasant memories, and that trip is Griff ' s fondest memory. Perhaps we should not give too much credit to the trip itself for providing Griff so much entertainment for, after all, there were a few Regis students also en voyage. Griff ' s activities were not entirely con- nected with the social whirl, however. Although an active and prominent member of the B. C. Club of Peabody, still he manages to have his serious moments.

One of the old guard of the Musical Club, John played the saxo- phone in the band and the violin in the orchestra. His activities, however, extended even further, and he was prominent in many clubs. In all these interests he manifested that rare ability of doing well in every- thing. Social life too, was a part of his education, for no class or college function ever lacked his support. Talented as he was, he still had another gift — bound- less enthusiasm in whatever field he entered, and if spirit alone were the norm of success, then Chubby would even now be at the pinnacle of achievement. And so, when we are years departed from Boston College, we will look for Chubby in the firmament of college grads, and we expect to see him riding serenely along, with his wagon hitched to the star of success. . . .

Hank is one of the most likeable and most active members of the class of ' 35. Small in stature, yet mighty in intellect, he has been a leader in curricular and extra-curricular activities during his college career. An ardent sports enthusiast, he has been a member of the hockey team, as well as a competitor in golf and tennis. In golf, he has a hard time ap- proaching his pal, Dave Concannon, as well as the greens, while, in tennis. Bill Nash sometimes drives him to despond. Hank, unfortunately, is addicted to the expensive practice of tipping waiters and police- men, especially the latter. During class. Hank found it quite vexing to have the professors lecture while he was engaged in conversation but he proved a good sport by just grinning and bearing it. He aspires to the medical profession and will undoubtedly be an efficient medico because of his extremely keen mind and his facility for grasping knowledge easily. All in all. Hank has wisely mixed work with pleasure during his career at the Heights and we are certain that such a sense of proportion will guide him in his post-graduate work. . . .

It has been remarked many times that Boston College men are In too much of a hurry to get home after the last class. Here, however, we have an ex- ception, for Charlie was a constant opponent of the 1:30 boys. As both member and captain of the Rifle team, he devoted much of his time to perfecting his skill on the range. But, even after hours of practice at shooting clay pipes and pigeons, and snaring bulls eyes, Charlie was reluctant to leave the hieights, for he realized that college life lasts only four short years, and that, after commencement all those pleas- ures associated with college life would be lost, hie carried his interest in activities to the Lynn B. C. Club, in which he was a member of the governing board, and where his zeal served as an inspiration for the other members. And so we say of this truly loyal son, posssessed of such incomparable optimism, unbounded enthusiasm, and good fellowship, that fortune cannot help but beckon to him with a friendly nod.

When first we saw John our opinion of Brighton was greatly enhanced, and rightly we deduced that this suburb of Boston must be a great place, to pro- duce such a fellow as John. Although quiet, John was well-known and liked throughout the whole class, hlis genial attitude and quiet-mannered ways have won the admiration of all his classmates. In John there is a goodly portion of that indefinable something called the luck of the Irish. For instance, remember his winning the sweater offered by Fr. Frank Sullivan down in the stands one bright afternoon? Speaking of stands, we are reminded that John used to patrol them during football games in the official capacity of usher. Quite typical of him was his continuing on to Springfield one day, although he was handicapped by the obstacles of: (1) a flat tire, (2) a broken car- buretor, and (3) the pouring rain; all to follow the fortunes of the team. This spirit he has manifested through his four years, ever loyal to his alma mater. So with his modesty, persistence and patience we are sure that his career will be a bright one. . . . usher at the games . . . won the sweater in Fr.

Long after Commencement there will re-echo in our minds Bill ' s famous query, hHave you heard this one? This was the question put to all his acquaint- ances many times during the year, and characterizes Bill as a wit of unusual ability. His humor was evi- dent at all times. - s mastery of the art of punning kept the SUB TURRI editors raving when they had to go over the sports write-ups. Being an enthusiastic baseball fan, he naturally turned his attention toward reporting the diamond clashes for the hieights, and in this work also, his individual style gave him quite a following. As an expert with the foils he will be sorely missed by the Fencing Team; the Fulton will be deprived of his witty, but well-founded criticisms; the F eights will no longer have such a sports writer. True, all these will miss him, but they are far out- numbered by the friends who regret the parting.

Charity without forethought is Bill ' s characteristic. Bill has not vast resources to replenish the failing coffers of well-known philanthropies, still in a greater way this Boston Collge son is charitable. Every athlete ' s errors are explained by him as misfortunes of an off-day; the acts of deceit of others are passed over unnoticed and everyone is sincerely judged by Bill to be a fine fellow. Ambitious, you are right, and fortunate too, for Bill worked every week since he entered the FHeights. A baseball star of the first rank, a member of the freshman team, but yet never a varsity man because of the fact that his course was so arranged that sufficient time could not be spent along these lines. During the summer his play on various amateur and semi-professional clubs has been so sen- sational that big league scouts have cast longing eyes at the rugged left fielder who swings a Louisville with the accuracy of a pool player, and the simplicity of a Ruth. This ability, athletic and otherwise, will be a necessary asset in places of the future when success requires men whose make-up belongs to the category of those of sterner stuff. . . .

A casual visitor to the Biology Lab might ask the name of the quiet young man over In the corner, toiling diligently in the interests of science. Of course he would be told that it was Charlie Hart, chemist extraordinary. Here was a young man who always aroused our envy because of his remarkably method- ical habits and his consistently noteworthy achieve- ments. His drawings were always of the neatest, his results in the chem lab were always the best, and he it was who entered the quiz classes without trepida- tion and emerged victorious. A truly remarkable chap, Charlie always kept neat and readable notes of his classwork, actually handed in his lab reports on time, and thought nothing of typing out his home- work. He has as pleasant a disposition as any fellow we know and even in the midst of the vissitudes of his Pre-Med work he kept smiling. And did we mention that this versatile youth is a musician, too? A second Kreisler, in fact, although to our sorrow a bashful one. His ability and his knack of instilling confidence in another will stand him in good stead in his chosen profession. . . .

Sodality 1, 2, 3, (Executive Council, 4). Every class boasts a select group of studious char- acters who pass their undergraduate years serenely contemplating the mysteries of the average collegian ' s existence. Little known to the majority of their fellow students, they cultivate a restricted circle of friends who live apart from the rest of men. Of such a philo- sophically detached nature is Jim Hart, whose quiet manner has impressed all with whom he has come in contact throughout his Boston College career. Con- scientious in all his undertakings, his whole hearted devotion to every problem confronting him has marked him out as loyal in the extreme. Jim ' s dignified manner strikes the observer immediately as being quite unusual for one of his years. Fortified with a natural reserve, Jim has never been known to solicit the confidence of anyone,- nevertheless the high re- gard which every member of the Sodality group has for him, readily attests to the leading part he has played as a member of the organization. In addition to these duties, he has also been active in the presen- tation of the symposia sponsored by the Sodality. Carefully concentrating his efforts in a restricted field, his accomplishments mark him out for success in the future. The application of his talents to the problems in after life will doubtless continue to merit for him a generous measure of success. . . .

Chemistry Seminar 3, 4; Sodality 1, 2; Rifle Team 3, 4; Radio Club 4; Military Club 4. From the wind-swept wilds of Walpole by way of Dean Academy, Jim came to matriculate at tfie Heights. We are not sure, but we are of the opinion that Jim ' s ability in handling a rifle is due to environ- ment. Of course, in such distant spots as Walpole, the natives go about heavily armed because of the war-like nature of the Indian tribes that lurk in the uncleared portions of the town. At any rate, Jim ' s natural ability as a sharpshooter has earned many points, in lieu of scalps, for the Rifle Team. Because of the difficult B. S. course that he elected, Jim could not devote much time to extra-curricular ac- tivities. However, he sought to improve his scientific knowledge by faithfully attending all the formal dis- cussions of the Chemistry Seminars. Jim claims to be socially disillusioned, but those of his mates who know him best are aware that this is a gross mis- statement, entirely unworthy of a scientist. We expect that, after several years of intensive preparation and work, Jim will come to be recognized by those in his chosen profession as one of the real leaders in scientific research. . . .

He won his 1. T. O. A. in September of Freshman by the unani- mous vote of all those who rode with him. Jack was the fellow who drove those late-sleeping North Shore boys from North Station to their first class in about twelve short minutes. If automobiles could talk, what stories his would tell of excursions to town, and the dashes to Emmanuel, Regis, Wellesley, and the rest. The Pontiac of Sophomore and Junior would relate the immortal yarn of that early spring swim at Newport. Then the new Pontiac of Senior, with a great deal of dignity (it has a radio, and there ' s no extra charge) could give us the story of that trip to the hills of New Hampshire to make a good im- pression on a very, very winsome person. As a social lion. Jack admitted no peer. At any affair we were sure to see him, and looked upon him as a member of the old guard. A loyal son of Boston College was Jack, and no greater tribute can we pay him than to say that we always looked to him when we wanted favors. Good luck. Jack. . . .

To those who really knew him, he was the source of much information little known to the ordinary person. He could always give you the low down on many a political situatoin, amazing you with his secretive information, hlis wide knowledge of various subjects might be well explained by his love for good books. Jim proved himself a man of high ideals when he made application for training in the Navy Air Corps. hHe also has all that is needed for a successful public servant, countless friends, ability and strong character. This versatile young man has manifested an inclination to another line as it shown by his choice of Law as an elective. hHis accurate solution of cases in the law class, his fine appearance, and his ability to speak shows that he will be a credit to the Bar should he decide to choose this profession. But we know that whatever profession he elects, he will be a credit to the class of ' 35 which always knew him as a cultured and affable gentleman. . . .

For four years we have known John Herlihy. Diligent and reliable, he has never forced himself into great prominence. Now that the time has come to leave him and to take different paths in life we will always remember hiilse primarily as a friend. Many times have the hallowed walls of our much- frequented rotunda resounded with the tones of hHilse ' s arguments. A member of the famous Battery D in Sophomore, he learned well the art of rhetoric. Though often we have disagreed with hHilse, we have always respected his opinion. hHis future in Dorchester should be bright. hHere is another B. C. . fighting young Democrat who may soon be on his way to the FHouse on Beacon hHill. Parties and dances never held any appeal for John. The theatre was his greatest means of relaxation. As a judge of pictures and productions on the legitimate stage he ranked highly; and any show he recommended could be relied on to prove worth while. Though hHilse could never be held up as a prominent member in under- graduate activities, he was a real representative of B. C. 1935, and he is one member that we will always be proud to call a classmate. . . . Democrat . . . Battery D . . . Hilse . . . lovei of Dramatics and the legitimate theatre. 89 O N O WALTER F.

Walter is a name that is seldom used when speaking of this worthy gentleman. To us, he is simply Tody, a real fellow and a likeable companion. Although never a member of the fHeights, he could usually be found in that office where his ready wit and ever cheerful spirit made him welcome. Perhaps his great- est asset was his ability to make friends and hold them. A gifted Thespian, Tody was president of the Dramatic Club during both his Junior and Senior years. hHis ability as an actor had a great deal to do with the success of the various dramas presented in the last few years. The high standard set up by the Dramatic Society could be in large measure attributed to his work, for he was the most consistent of all its adherents. As for po ' pularity, he was known all the way from Boston to Salem Willows, hlis field of activity was widespread — no dance ever lacked his support and few indeed were the college functions that did not have him in attendance. In short. Tody symbolized the true college man — willing at all times to do his share and, in this case, always willing to do more. ._ . .

It would be inaccurate to say that Al is a dry humored sort of a person, for there is in his humor a certain glittering quality that belies the serious verbiage in which his jokes are dressed. One of our most enticing recollections of B. C. days will be the memories of the times he caused us to blow up in bursts of riotous laughter. But it is certainly the truth to say that Al has won for himself, by his consideration, by his timely and never uncharitable humor, and by his example of serious effort in studies, a host of friends. In spite of extra-curricular activities that would have proved over burdensome to others of less moral stamina, Al has maintained a consistently good scholarship re cord, thereby earning his title of Plugger. But we must admit that we gave him this name more as a taunt than because of its foundation in fact. Having taken the pre-med course Al is headed for the field of medi- cine, where he will win the success that never fails to come from untiring zeal and effort. . . .

HINCHEY Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Ethics Academy 4; Track 1, 2; RiHe Club 2; Marquette 2; Von Pastor 1, 2, 3, 4; Fulton 4. Jim is one of the truly well-read men in Senio r. Every type of book from light novel to the heaviest classic has been mentally digested by this literary light of Dorchester. Jim had many inhibitions in the dim past but he has been ridding himself of them with an ease and rapaidity that is the envy of all of us. This stocky Dorchester youth will walk you com- pletely off your feet, then casually and sincerely suggest a little hike less thn five minutes afterwards. For a very rugged lad he is strangely addicted to colds and we strongly suspect that he is insidiously seeking comfort and medication from many sources. A master elocutionist! Jim ' s renditions of various excerpts from Shakespeare will never be forgotten by those who have heard them. A true gentleman and one of the truly chivalrous types almost extinct today, Jim pre- sents a quiet exterior which masks a sharp and hum- orous wit which never sleeps. Whether he was in the Fulton or supinely situated among the dictums of elective English, he was always his imperturbable self, smiling but unobtrustive. If ever you are looking for d true blue B.

Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Fulton 4; Ethics Academy 4; Economics Academy 4,- Dante Academy 4. What is not well done, is not done at all — at least, that, in brief, seems to be John ' s credo in life. Coming from far off Rockland, John has made the long and dangerous journey daily. During his stay at the hHeights, he set an enviable scholastic record and did much to increase that store of knowledge which is so essential to the cultured gentleman. When not in class, he could always be found at the Library pondering over some philosophical tome or perusing some one of the classics. In his quest for the best books, John cetainly kept the Library staff at its highest point of efficiency. Usually quiet and re- served, he has come to be known by sight rather than through personal contact. However, those who have had the privilege of his friendship, have dis- covered the true depths of his character. John has found keen delight in viewing all the great stage productions which have appeared in Boston for the study of the fine points of acting upon the legitimate stage is one of his chief diverisons. As for the future, we feel that John will expound his accumulated knowledge for the benefit and pleasure of others. . . .

The young man to whom the pitfalls of Scholasticism or Classicism meant merely a daily course of life ' s vicissitudes, was Dan hHolland or Dutchy, as he is popularly known. Although at times it might have seemed that blissful quietude was his only delight, you would be surprised at the activity that he ex- hibited outside of his studious hours. Dan was a familiar figure at each Boston College function and has been espied again and again at the affairs of various local institutions of higher learning. Dutchy did not, however, confine his activities to dancing. As a very capable chairman of many college func- tions, he has given continued proof of his ability and spirit. As a cheer-leader, Dutchy toiled on in victory and defeat, fair weather and foul. Who will forget his sterling ambition to keep alive a freezing cheering section in Mt. St. James in Sophomore? As an assist- ant and vigorous champion of the present incumbent of the Governor ' s chair, he has no equal. hHe and Bill Loonie since B. C. H. days have passed many exciting times as boon companions. Dan is aspiring to a legal career and seems well fitted for success in this field. In fact, he is beginning to look senatorial already. . . .

Norm is perhaps one of the most jovial mannered and, at the same time, seriously intellectual of all the men in our class — a combination that typifies the ideal American college man. Norm ' s smile flashed even in the dullest of classes and his humorous observations, sotto voce, contributed to the alleviating of the pain. The favorite courses of this student who excelled in all branches were Biology and Chemistry. While off the campus, Norm spends much of his time in his cell on Manet Road. We understand that here he studies sciences and ponders over perplexing economical questions. With no hesitation we add that, should he circulate himself among Greater Boston debs, then, gentlemen beware! Wellesley seems to be his present trysting spot. In his short collegiate career. Norm has attended three leading colleges — Columbia, Maine, and Assumption in Canada — and from each has gathered many qualities, the integration of which gives him a unique advantage for future endeavor.

Boston College has at least one real worker in the person of John h onahan. Whenever anyone men- tions work, we immediately think of John, for, throughout his collegiate days, he toiled diligently both physically and mentally to make himesif better fitted for the future. hHe found it expedient to do outside work in order to continue his education, and the way in which he went after it and performed his duties is a tribute to his perseverance. From farmer to tonsorial artist, to soda clerk, John ran the gamut of part time jobs. Even in his hours of toil he did not forget the other side of college life, and so he was a familiar figure at the class affairs. Studies were easy for him. After all, he was used to work, and so mere mental exertion could not phase him. Argumentation was his forte, and most of those who had experienced the impracticality of opposing him avoided another hke encounter, for his arguments were always of the best and were ones of which he had undeniable proof. So we come to the time when we must say goodbye. To this son of B. C. we only say, We have seen your capabilities: we know what the future will be.

The rustic atmosphere of beauty spots such as Needham are perennially successful in producing a crop of male hearties and sartorial elegancies. When Bob Huddy finally found his way out of the wilder- ness and had passed four years in scholastic endeavor we decided that two qualities were superceding others in his make-up. These were his fortunate ten- dency to dress a la Esquire and the other which merited for him a class popular vote ... his pleasant physiognomy, commonly called good looks. Day in and day out New York was a closer friend of Boston College inasmuch as business suits, ties, and shirts all in perfect harmony and of the latest design were artfully and modestly displayed. We believe that for this very reason. his art of wearing clothes and charm- ing others edged its way into his mannerisms;and low and behold, an ardent following of companions. From the very source of admiration which we have mentioned, came his facility in acquiring companions for extra-college affairs which were always situations that came under his close attention. From his pleasant- ness, his physical and mental stamina, and most de- cisively of all, his sincerity in scholastic work comes his success . . . forever a pleasant memory. . . .

Henry is a quiet, dignified chap who already seems to have some of the professional attitude char- acteristic of his chos en field of endeavor. For hHenry was a pre-med student and a very talented and popular one. hHis drawings in biology lab were the envy of us all and his ability in making the instructor think that he knew what was under the microscope, was beyond all description. That Henry is a sturdy seeker of knowledge is demonstrated by the fact that he daily made the long journey from Lynn to Boston College. And what is more, he did it in that quaint brown buggy of his, which caused much comment and wild surmise due to the Boston University (never heard of it? — neither did we) sticker which appeared on the back window. Could this have any connection with any friends who might have been students at that institution? Really a very pleasant and likeable character, Henry was a member of the Pre-Med Acad- emy, the bottle breakers union, the lunch room coun- cil and the balance room gang. We all confidentially predict a brilliant career for him and hope to claim his friendship in future years. . . .

John is a quiet, serious minded fellow in the class- room. Thus to many of his classmates he is not known as the humorist which he actually is after class hours. Here we could write volumes on our reminiscences of many hours made hilarious by his wit, of many affairs rescued from dullness by his contagious smile and droll stories. So it is regrettable that John has not been able to participate in many more of the extra-curricular activities. For he has been a willing martyr to the weary, uninteresting hours required by the pre-medical studies. He is entirely enraptured by the profession that he is to follow. We who know John realize that in his work he is bound to make a name for himself due to his thoroughness and interest in all things medical. Among the so-called hermits, John is one of the most popular and best dressed members. All in all, when it comes to summarizing John, it is like epitomizing a sunset, words fail. So, in conclusion, we can only add to our account of this versatile charcter our heartiest expressions for the best the future can bring. . . . Dugan ' s Pythias . . .

Ever eager to help, A e asked him what he was looking for, and imagine our surprise when he replied, ' I m looking for Frank Sullivan. And so it has been ever since — Gene always looking for his bosom pal. The two were, perhaps, B. C. ' s greatest inseparables, from Lawrence to the classroom and back. In Lawrence Gene v as knov n for his loyalty to his friends and his fame continued here. At the Heights he added more, for he was one of our most enthusiastic class boosters. Every college function saw him in attend- ance, and many clubs and societies carried his name on their roster. In the Accounting class he was a real standby, as many of those future C. P. A. ' s will agree. Still, we do not think that the science of assets and liabilities is his true love. It appears, from his great interest in the subject, that Pedagogy is his favorite. So, we would not be surprised to see, in a few years, our old friend Gene expounding to the youth of Lawrence the facts he has imbibed here. . . . Are you comfortable? . . . going to Lawrence? . . .

Did someone mention the band? Watch Paul spring to its defence should any unbeliever take the glorious name of that organization in vain. For, although Paul was an interested supporter of all Boston College activities, the band was his pride and joy. As one of the ablest and most loyal of our horn tooters, he had a perfect right to rally to the defense of our famous musical group. Next to music Paul found his greatest pleasure in spending long hours in the laboratory working over the test tubes. A tall, rather nervous chap, he was enrolled in the difficult pre-med course. To the acclaim of friends, Paul showed his ability by consistently getting good marks and seemed right at home in the midst of the most complicated chemistry experiment. On many oc- casions he proved himself a master of repartee in holding his own among the balance room gang, as murderous a collection of scandal mongers as ever framed libelous stories about one of its long suffering members. When in the years to come, Paul gets his M.D., we know that he will take his rightful place among the talented wielders of the scalpel. . . .

Sometimes they come large in physical stature like Jugger ' s stooge, Eaton, or in rather mitigated manhood like Jugger himself. Somewhat shorter than his companion, he is neverthe- less a muscular track enthusiast — climaxing a brilliant career on the boards and cinders by being elected Captain of the flying Eagles. Jugger is prominent in N. E. track circles as one of the famous dash twins to whose Mercurean feet opposition meant nothing. - e and Johnny McManus, of a previous year, have spent many interesting times on and off the track. hHls companionship was something to be sought and relished — it was pleasant, intimate and true. Conse- quently, he was elected to one of the highest offices in the school — President of the Student Activities Council. Besides his proclivities in the scholastic field, he excelled as a social enthusiast — popular for his companionability, simplicity, and unpretentious- ness. We know one admirer who agrees with us and enthusiastically so. To speak now of success is futile. From Freshman to Senior, he has fulfilled one word — excellent. It will be his in the future. . . .

Steve is one of the best of many examples, afforded by the Class of ' 35, of well balanced characters. First of all, Steve is a diligent and earnest student. He realized that there are definite educational bene- fits that can be gained in college, only if one goes after them. And Steve went after them. Hz knew, too, the truth of the adage all work and no play. So we find him a welcomed figure in all those in- formal rotunda or campus gatherings, where his unruffled good humor and invariably gentlemanly speech and action won him the respect and love of many friends. We find him, too, contributing socially and otherwise to all manner of school proms, dances, etc. As a true Boston College man we find him a staunch supporter of its athletic teams and of all other school groups. And last but not least, as is character- istic of the well-balanced college man, we know of the truly Catholic aim which Steve has, of dissemin- ating, wherever he is able, the certain truths he has learned. During college life, no matter what the argument or controversy or circumstances, Steve was willing to exert, his influence for good.

For to his own goodly graces are added the charms of music. Mert is a man of de- cidedly musical accomplishments. From high school days he has thrilled churchgoers throughout Greater Boston with his performance at the organ. Whatever spare time this busy young man had was spent in attendance at the New England Conservatory of Music. Music would seem to be his life ' s career, and already he has attained success in it — he directs one of the best choirs in the diocese. Playing the organ at evening services and morning masses throughout the week did not leave him much time for studies, yet he never lagged behind in scholastic achievement. Mert ' s philosophy is that true pleasure can only be attained by an appreciation of the finer things in life. This he evidenced by his frequent attendance at good plays and his intensive study of music, h e is also a real authority on good books and the quaint spots in the Bohemian section of Boston ' s night life. All in all Mert ' s presence impressed upon us the feeling that here was a gentleman. So to a scholar, a gentle- man, and a musician, the best of luck. . . .

Not only in this department did Bill show his ability but also, in the columns of the hieights, he used the Eagle ' s Eye as a mediumquo in perceiving and cleverly diagnosing the rises and falls of Boston College athletic fortunes. Bill is tall and dignified, with a deep bass voice that could be used to equal advantage in booming out The Road to Mandalay and in orating in effective Ciceronian periods for the Fulton. Likewise it helped in weakening the walls of the Managers ' office where he held sway as dictator, discussing any slight matter. Ever grateful for any help given him, Bill himself has aided many with his words of advice, and has often smoothed out the rough places for those who found the path difficult.

Fifty thousand Frenchmen would be wrong if they dared to say that Dan ' s nonchalant and witty manner- isms were not genuine. Appearing indifferent, yet he was alert, and quick in response and simply devoured his quiz class. Any evening one might have met him trudging his way from the elite Beacon FHill section, across the historic Common to his night school classes. Not content with his electives in Law and Account- ancy, this curly-headed, blue-eyed Beaconite was determined to acquire the rudiments of Shorthand and Bookkeeping. A steady and persistent worker, with a smile and humorous quips that make him a jolly companion, this gentleman treats harships with a grin.

When the time came for selecting our officers for Senior, we had to give some thought to the choice of the right man for the post of Treasurer. We knew that he had to be one in whom we could have the utmost trust and whom we could rely upon. And so, we did the logical thing — we elected Joe Kelley. A watchdog of the treasury, he proved himself capable, and the class realized the astuteness of its choice. Joe came to us from the Special Latin class, and the high standards he set there, he always maintained at the FHeights. As a companion, we could find none better. Every dance was brightened by his presence. The firm of Kelley, Towie, and Co. became B. C. ' s most famous social team, and they held their title through a hectic year of dances and class affairs. Every collegiate activity, whether scholastic or social, was given Joe ' s support. Therefore, since he has been to Boston College a loyal son, and has been to us a valued friend, we can judge as to the future accordingly.

From that well-known section of Dorchester, Fields Corne r, has come this dapper chap we know as Tom Kelly. From four years ' observation we can give testi- mony that Tom, whatever the occasion, no matter how diversified its nature, always had a good time. Nor was there ever a time when Tom could not laugh at the humor of this passing show. Naturally a man with such a disposition soon attracted a host of friends. Whatever came along in the course of our four years together, studies or socials, Tom non- chalantly met them, as a man who knows his own capabilities, hiardly a social function passed without Tom ' s presence, and he was never knovvn to flunk a subject. FHis activities covered a large field, from his natural ability in African Golf, to wielding a by no means inferior fiddle in the orchestra. Space does not allow further dilating on Tom ' s activities but his fellows-in-arms, enry Fallon and Steve Joyce could perhaps tell us more. Tom seems to be tending to- ward Law for his future career. So we will hardly be surprised if he develops into a barrister of note, undaunted by the intricacies of the legal labyrinth. ...

From the desolate and trackless wilds of Dedham, John came to the FHeights after imbibing culture for four years at B. C. hiigh. It has been whispered about that on many mornings he came to class with strands of hay and straw sticking out from his clothes. But now, in serious vein, we must admit that John was a well-known character along the corridors of the Heights and at certain nearby halls of learning. By his association with all extra-curricular activities and his attendance at all games and dances, John gave ample testimony to his spirit and loyalty to everything that made up Boston College. A friendly type, pos- sessed of a very good sense of humor, he was always able to provoke a laugh, even at his own expense. Never one to overtax himself with the burdens of excessive study, nevertheless John always managed to keep up with the rest, hie seems to be headed toward the profession of law and, since he always was a capable speaker, he is destined to rise to a position of esteem in his chosen field. . . .

One of the most ardent boosters for the city of Lowell is our own Steve. We don ' t know whether the Lowell Chamber of Commerce rewards him financially but he certainly deserves it. There ' s no place like this sister of Lawrence and she must be properly represented in all B. C. activities — so says Steve. In this day and age when the prevalent standard seems to be whom do you know and not what do you know, Steve ' s wide circle of friends will stand him in good stead. hHe is inevitably explaining how he knows this one and that one who will certainly take care of him after he receives his sheepskin. Steve ' s personality cannot but be an asset to him. If you happen to be in Lowell, some day and get a hot tip on some horse, don ' t think that your golden op- portunity must slip by because you don ' t know any sporting gentlemen in the city. Just mention the sport of kings to Steve and he Will give you some hair raising accounts of the exciting episodes which took place while the Lowell blue coats were raiding a Lowell bookmaker.

Walking across the campus one day, we noticed a group of fellows gathered about another young man who was evidently telling them something of interest. When we stopped and took our place on the out- side of the group in order that we might learn who it could be that had the gift of so entrancing his mates that they stopped on the campus to listen to him, we heard someone say, ' It ' s a fact. Then we knew — it was John Kenney. This one phrase was a character- istic that set him apart, for he constantly used it. And how he could bring if into those stories, of which he always seemed to have an unlimited supply. B. C. certainly was fortunate when John decided to trans- fer from Fordham to the hHeights. From the loyalty he displayed to Boston for the last three years, we would say that it was a mistake that he went to Fordham for even one year. Although he lives in Jamaica Plain, John is a farmer at heart, and he is very interested in rural affairs. This seems to contradict his choice of courses, for he is a member of the difficult B.S. course. Still, with this background, John is destined to go far in the world and we wish him the best of luck. . . . Owns a 1910 Buick . . . half the B.

Due to his pleasing and invigorating personality, he was ap- pointed as a member of the committee for each year ' s Prom. His very presencd on the committee was enough to insure the success of the venture. Also his splendid work as Chairman of the Ring Committee is worthy of our commendation. Although Roger ' s social life was filled to the brimming point, the difficult side of college was not forgotten. He was adept at exploring the truths of philosophy, psychology, and ethics. Never did the least sign of worry crease his forehead at the constant mention of the impending orals. Now we are seeing Roger for the last time and we cannot help but feel certain that his assiduous method of completing his tasks successfully, will enable this resident of Lynn to say I told you so to any doubters of future life. . . .

Although Ed hails from the city of witches we can say he has none of their mysterious power. Never outstanding, his consistency kept him among the leaders of his class. A class companion of Carrol Lehane he was never led astray by his worldly meth- od. We can recall Ed in Sophomore delivering a very fine speech advocating smoking in the library en- trance. Despite the long distance he had to travel to and from school, he found time for numerous other activities. The musical clubs were his particular avo- cation. For four years he has been an outstanding member of that group, and in his senior year he was made concert master of the orchestra. The audiences have truly enjoyed his skillful violin renditions. The Salem B. C. Club can avow for his ability as an ad- ministrator during his term of Vice-President of that organization. Success coming to the many social events of the organization were due in no small part to his tireless efforts. It has been a pleasure for us to have spent four years at Colllege in Ed ' s companion- ship.

If one were to address this gracious classmate as John, he would probably not know that he was being called — for Johnny he is called both as a diminutive because of his small stature and affection- ately because of those countless pleasantries which bind him to his many friends. After four years of B. C. High School, Johnny was well versed in the art of studying — but the dull monotony of the printed page was not his only pursuit. Proms, smokers, rallies, all were enlivened with Johnny ' s amusing antics and good natured laugh. Though he never actually par- ticipated in collegiate athletics, there was never a more loyal rooter for the A. A. than Johnny. As a member of the working class on Saturdays, his trade has increased abundantly. What higher praise could be given than to say truthfully that Johnny ' s reliance and trust were never betrayed and never was an un- charitable word heard to be uttered by him. The towns of Hyde Park, whether of New York or Massachusetts, have always had their illustrious citizens. Johnny, in pursuing the difficult profession of law, will never depart from tradition and we are quite positive that in his own manner he will attain to the heights of his predecessors. . . .

Nothing pleases more than a well-balanced man, for he is the very essence of common sense. In him, college finds proper soil for cultivation and, from him, in later years there will emanate a profound in- fluence over his fellow man. During the past four years, in good times and in bad, it has been our good fortune to know Bill Landrey. When studies had de- pressed us and the routine of class weighed heavily on the spirit. Bill ' s joviality would go a long way toward lightening the hours. Bill was one of the best liked members of the class, and could always be found around the campus in the midst of a group of attentive friends. The Fulton claimed him in Junior and that year his sound common sense won him a place on the lecture and collegiate debating teams. He was equally successful on the rostrum and was elected Secretary of the society. His talents are num- erous, his friends legion and words cannot express our appreciation of him as a fine fellow, so we can only borrow from the poet what we feel but cannot say.

For those in the class who wanted a concrete ex- ample of the arm-chair philosopher, Jim was the ansv er. Ordinarily a rather quiet individual, his ac- tivity in intellectual pursuits sometimes astounded even the professors, for he could always be depend- ed upon to think up that which is very rare in collegiate circles, viz.: an intelligent objection, hie was of the conservative type, and most unassuming. He would rather listen to an argument than take part in it, but once his opinion was asked on a point at issue, he could inevitably clear up the difficulty and put an end to the discussion. Much of his energy he expended in playing bridge, hie was right at home in the midst of any game and we often thought of putting him forward as challenger to Culbertson and Lenz. fHis greatest activity was in the Government class, where he proved an invaluable aid to Mr. Doyle in solving the governmental problems of the day. This interest in national affairs, coupled with the natural ability he seemed to possess for absorbing the intricacies of the Ethics course leads us to the conclusion that the world will be seeing Jim as a community leader.

There is a certain type of fellow who can ejoy himself without having to tell the world that he is having fun. Unfortunately the type is all too rare, but on the other hand its scarcity makes it the more appreciated when discovered. We have noticed Morry at numerous college functions and always he seemed to be getting a great maount of pleasure with a minimum of effort. Since it has been more or less of a frantic struggle with us, this question of enjoying oneself at a social gathering we have en- vied his easy, tranquil manner. Morry ' s unruffled attitude has withstood not only the mad scramble of the Junior Prom, but also the more subtle and con- centrated attacks of the various dances throughout the years of college life. This theory of accomplish- ment through facile methods bore him along his scholastic path; and whether it was an objection to be answered in Psych, or a means of assistance to his friends, Morry was always unknowingly exemplifying his nature. Because of his gentlemanly manner, his amiable disposition, and his sincerity, Morry will, we drz sure, continue his enviable way of coming, seeing, and conquering. . . .

One has but to engage him in conversation and soon discover the huge amount of knowledge that is stored under that calm exterior. hHis seeming indifference to encourage friendships made him stand alone, considering the opinion of those who knew him, as one of the most cultured men of his class. His speech, punctuated by well-chosen words, seemed to fit in with his erect, gentlemanly bearing. hHowever, even though Jim did use uncommon words, he was not considered a pan- tologist, but rather we endeavored to imitate him by improving our own speech. As a philosopher Jim can stand up against any member of the class. hHis work in Sociology is worthy of mention, for he is among those few who are sure of obtaining honors in this subject. Although otside activities took up a great deal of his time, he also played an important part in the Sodality during his college years. Jim ' s college days are over, but as we glance back over the successful course which he has navigated, we can but smile contentedly, knowing full well that all adverse winds and storms will be safely weath- ered and the ship of success will soon be securely anchored in his own harbor. . . .

John was brilliant in everything to which he set his hand or mind. He was always at the top of the list in every branch of study, whether it was the classics of Latin and Greek, the master- pieces of English and French, or in the somewhat more exacting pursuit of the physical sciences of Physics, Chemistry or Biology. And in Philosophy he was a veritable wizard. But his versatility did not stop with studies, for he has one of the best-developed and perfectly balanced personalities of any one with whom we have had contact. He is always good- natured, always tactful and sympathetic, and always free from pretense and sham. He can be serious or light-hearted, can take a joke, or give one as the occasion demands. In fact, if John excels in one thing more than another, it is in his ability to be a good fellow and a real companion. When a fellow has such qualities as these, we can be certain that he will be a huge success in Medicine. . . . Radio-bug . . . traffic box in Roslindale Sq. . . . one of B. C.

Then, glancing to his right and seeing his namesake sound asleep, he would speedily follow his example. Not that Tom ever missed anything by sleeping — that he had the happy faculty of listening intently when, to all appearances, his soul was far away, is shown by his scholastic record which is indeed enviable. Tom is certainly dependable and a representative Boston College student. fHe is the type of man that will struggle at any task, no matter how difficult, and make a grand success of it.

For, though George did not openly and incessantly talk about her glories and virtues, one could easily and quickly arouse the fires of loyalty within him by humorously making a false statement against her greatness, and, immediately, George would rise to the occasion and keep her escutcheon inviolate. Although George is by no means one possessing exceptional humorous tendencies, yet he was possessed with a rare ability to insert a piece of humor into the conversation when everybody least expected it. We will always re- member George for his simple sincerity and deep rooted interest in ideals and friends with whom he came in contact. No matter where he was, whether it was on the floor of the Fulton expatiating on some current topic, in the classroom, or commuting on the Salem Limited, when George spoke, his listeners al- ways absorbed his words and weighed them with keen intellects. George was not wont to speak in generalities and when he spoke it was from the bot- tom of his heart. We are sure he will travel serenely through life in happiness and honor. . . .

The result was that you might see Gerry running up the hill almost daily. Gerry ' s Junior Philosophy Prof, being a very exact man, used to insist that, when the bell rang at 9:30, it meant that no students were to be admitted thenceforth. These individual qualities of both men were the direct cause of an evil which spread throughout Junior D. Betting took place on certain mornings when Gerry had not put in his appearance by 9:28. Would Gerry make it, or would the Prof succeed in closing the door before the Peabody flyer arrived? Despite his tardiness (or because of it) Gerry was a good student. We wouldn ' t be a bit surprised if he should become an authority on Greek Mythology when he grows up. hlis interest in this subject in- creased when his track career was brought to an abrupt ending by a strained Achilles tendon.

When in some future years we look back upon this present and recall familiar scenes and faces one of our first thoughts will be of Frank. And rightly too, so closely was he associated with most of our class activities. For from Freshman to Senior he has untir- ingly devoted his time and efforts to studies, to sports, and to managing the affairs of the class of ' 35, three of these years as our chief executive. Many a brilliant play upon the gridiron was engineered by cool and clever Kiddo, before his speed was forced to yield to brawn,- many a score has he earned for the Freshman baseball team, while tennis found him a scintillating star, h is prowess as a hockey player we knew well before he entered collegiate ranks, and the praises of sport writers for this lad so fleet of foot and nimble of wit might abash the ancient bard who sang of the speed of Mercury. We shall especially remember Frank, however, as the genial, sincere, fellow who shouldered the burdens of the Class through three most difficult years. The task was difficult but the satisfaction of a task well done must be his indeed. When you enter the pro- ce ssion of dignified pedagogues, the business world will have lost an able executive.

Dan was a master of the art of know- ing everybody in the College, from the Dean down to the lowliest Freshman. That little smile and that sunshine, which seemed to be around him constantly, set him down at once as a fellow who could both give and enjoy a good hearted laugh. Dan grew to know and enjoy the French language in his college days. Some of us can distinctly remember those ex- cellent translations which he rendered in the days of Sophomore and Freshman years. And so it was only natural that he should major in French. z became a member of the French Academy in his Junior year and entered into the spirit of the Academy with that same whole heartedness of spirit which characterized all his actions. Outside of college, Dan was quite a hockey player, as many of his friends from Waltham may testify. Now we are parting from Danny, yet never can we forget that pleasant, determined man- ner which, we are sure, will aid him to surmount many of those difficulties which beset us upon our commencement. . . .

Certainly you have met this type before; every group numbers one, each organization boasts of one, no home should be without one. It is the generally quiet type, whose quest for knowledge is unbound- ed, and whose reserved nature can be put aside so as to show an unexpected pep and enthusiasm, hitherto not shown. In other words Al ' s course at our noble institution was marked as that of a student. Al comes from Somerville where he made a name for himself on the football team of Somerville FHigh, and was known for his ability throughout the high school league. FHere at the college his athletic endeavors were limited, because he was forced to spend many hours in the pre-medical laboratories with the other hermits. We have an inkling of what profession this Somervillite intends to follow, and we believe that it will be no rash prediction to mark a prosperous future for our old classmate, if capability, sincerity, and industry be any gauge.

It is safe for many of us to say that there was some- thing dull and incomplete about our college until we met and associated with Jim Lydon, the amiable chap from West Roxbury. To use a colloquial expression we got a real break the day Jim decided to take up his collegiate pursuits at Boston College, although he had the chance of spending four years at Columbia. Jim ' s flashy wit and entertaining manner together with his unbounded generosity make him not only a thoroughly enjoyable companion but a true friend. His singular ability in his studies is not that boresome intelligence that is born of the tedious study so characteristic of the socially isolated bookworm, but rather knowledge and lustrously polished wit that was his by an innate adaptability and cleverness. Jim ' s energetic interest in all class activities plus his almost effervescent personality made him the cynosure of admiring eyes among his fellow students. Endowed with an ingeious ability for organization, Jimmy is assured of leadership in the business world, while his remarkable talent for writing indicates his emula- tion of Galsworthy should he choose to enter the literary field. We can see nothing but the velvety paths of wealth and fame on the horizon for Jimmy. And those of us who know him may point with pride to the fact that in knowing him we are acquainted with a real, genuine, altruistic friend. . . .

Art is the undisputed leader of the Brockton delegation at Boston College. An ambitious fellow, reason has always been his guide and has never yet failed him. Art is of the jovial type and can take a joke as well as give it. There is only one bad feature that can be held against him — he breaks into song occasionally and distracts the attention of the entire class. Reports from Brockton say that he is Bing Crosby ' s only rival. While at the Heights, Art has given whole-hearted support to athletic and social activities. He is quite a card player and frequently condescends to demonstrate his skill at the lunch room tables. His ability at informal debates has en- abled him to squelch many a boisterous underclass- man. Art is a business man and should succeed in any line of business. However, rumor has it that his secret ambition isto give the rising generation of high school students the same fine training to which he himself was privileged. If Art does take up the teaching profession, he will not stop until he has reached the top — superintendent of schools in Brockton. . . . B. C.

A stern philosopher, a pro- pounder of a strict course of Ethics, a scholar with the studious attitude of a real thinker, and a good companion who proportionately mixes his fun with his work . . . that is a brief description of Pat. The Pre-Medical Society has been especially fortunate in having Pat amongst its members. Here his quick mind and deep thought won him exceeding recognition for his outstanding work. His excellent discussions in the Society on topics that are fundamental for every future medico, were of such calibre that repeti- tions of many of them were requested by the mem- bers. There is no doubt in our minds that Pat will surely succeed in his future profession. The results of his studies at the Heights easily show that some day we will see him settled in commensurate prosperity. . . .

Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4,- Business Club 4; hieishts 1, 2, 3, 4; Spanish Academy 1, 2, (President, 3,4). Roy is that tall, black haired fellow, typical example of the Spaniard of olden times. He has that congenial, sympathetic dignity which is so characteristic of the race he represents. He was not one to make many friends, yet those with whom he associated deeply felt his hidden qualities and silently admired his suc- cessful efforts to obtain the goal he had set for him- self. He began his extra-curricular career when he entered the Spanish Academy in his Freshman year. For three years he worked diligently at his various duties in the Club. He reached the termination of his work when, last year, he was accorded the Presi- dency. Roy continued his good work until, today, the Spanish Academy can stand on a par with any other society iri the College. Other activities, how- ever, were not neglected. He was an active member of the Sodality for four years, a member of the Business Club and also on the staff of the Heights. Now Roy is leaving us. And yet, in the dim future of uncertainty, we hope the best for him. Perhaps, with his knowl- edge of Spanish, we will hear of him holding down a diplomatic position in some South American coun- try.

Every morning, a long caravan of cars winds its way toward University Heights from Brockton, eacfi bearing its quota of B. C. students. One of this group during the last few years was Jim, an easy going, unassuming fellow. Always ready to be of assistance to any of his mates, he has become one of the favor- ites of our class. During his leisure moments at the Heights, Jim could always be found at Mr. Forbes ' room on the lower floor of the Science Building where the sages of the College were wont to gather to discuss the perplexing problems of the day. For a time it looked as though Jim would be unable to graduate with our class for he was handicapped by a series of shoulder injuries. However he courageously withstood the pain of the aggravating injuries and plugged along without a murmur. Word comes from Brockton that he has gained some repute as a sandlot ball player. We arz certain that Jim will make the grade after graduating, for his affable manner will enable him to contact and favorably impress those with whom he will be associated in later life. . . .

Even outside of the classroom Pack could always be seen in some group expounding his comments on every day life. One of his greatest assets was his ability to hold his own in verbal contest. In the summer months, if you happened to voyage to far off Nahant, you could find Packy engaged in many activities as a member of the Bass Point Yacht Club. He has also passed num- erous hours cavorting in centerfield for the club nine, and many a game was decided by Packy ' s ability to handle the willow. But on the serious side of life, Packy intends to place his talents in the honorable profession of law and, if his ability to persuade and sift out arguments in his school days is to be taken as a criterion, we see nothing but success in his dealing before the bar. So we say, continue your well di- rected efforts, Packy, and always carry the name of your Alma Mater as high in after life as you have here at Boston College. . . .

Chick went Gene one or more better, h e combined baseball ability with a mastery of languages, sciences, philosophy, literature, and sundry other studies. Charlie, able to play a skillful infield game, was a very valuable member of the Freshman nine. Besides, he was one of the highest ranking scholars in the class. Philosophy was his strong suit and he was always ready to argue any philosophical point. hHe could handle distinctions, contra-distinctions and definitions with a rare facility which bewildered anyone courageous-enough to debate with him. It was not Charlie ' s way to seek arguments but, when they arose, he could cope with them. Charlie was well liked for his modest and retiring, yet very friendly, manner. hHe was not one to look down on his less gifted fellow students but managed to carry his fund of knowledge gracefully. In his Senior year Chick worked in the Library, probably to be near the books. In spite of this inroad on his time, he kept his marks up in the stratosphere.

Graduation time always brings back memories of pleasant occasions, of worth while achievements, and of those who gave us the inspiration to go forward in search of the better things in life. In our memories John stands out as one of the able, worth while leaders of the Class of 1935. Coming from Roxbury, the birthplace of many famous B. C. men, he has worked unceasingly to make the extra-curricular ac- tivities of the college better known. As the pro- gressive president of the istory Academy, as a member of the Executive Council of the Economics Academy, as an officer in the Fulton, and a lecturer in the Sodality group, he has given ample proof of his loyalty and interest in everything that the FHeights offers. FHis class work did not suffer, neither did his social life, for John seemed to have the knack of so apportioning his time that he could get the most benefit out of the same old twenty-four hours. Such ability, such a sense of proportion, such loyalty and fidelity can not,-we are sure, but find its commensur- ate reward in this life for him. . . .

No greater authority for this revered book ex- ists in the student body. In fact, Tim seems to have stepped out of the Bible himself, because like these great men who have been proficient in the knowledge of nature and its intricacies chemical or physical, he has devoted his college career to the study of Chem- istry. This topic, so distasteful to some of us and so pleasant to others, has been drawn before lunch room audiences with such facility and ability that we are convinced he is and will be such a continual fount of subject matter. In these same scientific pur- suits, he was one of the six in Mr. McSheehy ' s class.

In every important event or occasion in a person s life, there is something or someone about whom all details seem to remain a sort of pinnacle to whom all paths lead. In like manner in our later life, recalling our fruitful college years. Bill will inevitably be our pinnacle. Our joys and happiness will find their ultimate source in the personality of Bill. As a Fresh- man we found him to be a carefree and yet modest chap. And now, as our sojourn here draws to a close, it is with a feeling of sadness that we part company with Bill. Always a leader in class, he proved to be an inspiraton to the rest of us. The poor class of ' 38 v as bewildered to see this sedate gentleman strolling through the rotunda and lower floors with his pipe in his mouth (save during Lent), perusing that ponderous volume of his pal, Shakespeare. We feel sure that the coming generation will be amply versed in the English language, for, in Bill, they will have a truly competent and efficient professor. His loyalty, sincerity and honesty will make him long remembered in our hearts. . . . Mustache . . .

Heading our personal list of People One Should Know is Pete, hero of many football games and philosophy classes. For four years, Pete has charmed us with his frank and candid manner, his ability as a student, and his interest in sports. Football was his greatest love — not only the experience of actual contact of knees with face, but the technical points of the game as well. In fact, Pete divided the course in Major Logic into two parts: the study of Major Logic and the development of an end-around play which would positively baffle Notre Dame. Pete not only played the game but, at a little high school down the street, he was known as coach to the boys. In addition to forming character, Pete has de- veloped a little football ability. If, some day, the lads who worked out under Pete should don the Gold and Maroon moleskins, then he will be known as a great coach as well as a great player. With his success as a football mentor already assured, we can feel just as certain that he will prosper in business during the off seasons. . . .

Mac ' s governing principle during his college days seemed to be that psych classes were instituted so that the weary stu- dents could catch up on their sleep.

In our Freshman year, we were wont to hear the booming of John ' s very deep voice, giving utterance to many and varied topics. Being a trackman, he naturally found his thoughts running in that direction. In Sophomore, we remember, John was stricken with appendicitis; but that was not to discourage him. For the lanky man from Medford kept on striving for success in his athletic endeavors. Not wishing to omit the religious element from his development in his educational pursuits, John was an active member of the Sodalities. In Junior year he received a thor- ough grounding in the principles of Logic, which later were utilized for his greatest good and to our not infrequent discomfort. But it was not until Senior that we saw him at his best. One of the few keen economists, he kept the department busy with mental gymnastics due to his poignant and pertinent ques- tions. As a sociologist, the New England Tel. and Tel. can testify to his proficiency in this field. In retrospect, we can but feel that as we passed through the valuable years of our college life, we were made just a little bit happier by the warmth of his kindly disposition. . . .

Bud just refuses to take the serious side of any question. Always content to listen complacently to vigorous discussions, he disdains to enter the de- debates. h owever, he is quick to note the humor of any situation and can thoroughly enjoy it. FHere is one boy who was undoubtedly robbed of his de- served place in the collegiate spotlight due to the handicap of commuting. From early childhood he was slated to skate to the top of the hockey world. Possessed of blinding speed, a blistering shot, and showing remarkable ability in handling the puck, he was regrettably unable to don Maroon and Gold ice togs. Bud is one of those young men who is always in demand, h is pleasing lackadaisical manner makes him ever popular, and proficiency in piano playing, card games, and other types of entertainment which are so popular with the younger set, serves to keep him in mind whenever fun is in the making. Although he claims that California ' s climate has many advan- tages over New England ' s, we feel that we could put up with our no ' easters, rapid changes in tem- perature, and other disagreeable features, if there were more like Bud numbered among our friends. . . .

Were Mac present, he would walk, not run, to the locker room, search for his key, take his hat and coat, and saunter out to the campus and calmly survey the scene. Of all the students in the pre-med course, Jim is the least deserving of pity, for the difficulties, in- tricate as they can be, were only play for his alert mind. The long classes and home assignments which necessitate the loss of sleep and air, tax not the strength of this rugged individual. Work, studies, and distance from civilization do not make Jim a social wall-flower. Professional as is his appearance, lofty as are his aims, his intimates declare that he is a man among men, and a great mixer in his own quiet, re- fined way. Medicine, his chosen field, is crowded, but the sight of those that fail will neither worry nor daunt him. h is ability, his spirit of humanitarianism, and his love for medicine will make him a successful and leading M.D. and one who will always remem- ber the ethics of his profession. . . .

Unlike many seniors who may be described as quiet, Tim possesses the ability of being quiet with- out sleeping. Tim has given us four years of compan- ionship; his steadiness has balanced any frivolous or giddy moments we might have had. hHis deep think- ing has enabled us to reach below the surface of thin veneer and see matters as they are. hie not only had the bodily strength to carry many tomes replete with learning home with him but also he had a mind strong enough to concentrate upon them and assimilate the learning they possessed. While most of his mates were rapidly becoming denizens of that ill-famed underworld, the Rotunda, and with alarming ease were becoming addicted to the coffee or tobacco drug, Tim might be found by anyone happening into the Library Building, hidden by pamphlets and grub- bing among moldy old editions that no one else would read, hlis cry was Somebody ' s got to read them.

In Frank we find sincerity of thought and purpose and all the qualities for a college student. Frank ' s personality radiates these characteristics, not only in his words but his every action bespeaks his true makeup. He possesses a quiet and reserved determin- ism. Frank also extended his interest past the portals of the classroom and every afternoon he could be seen busying himself about the rifle range, executing his duties as manager of that organization. In this duty, Frank spent many uneasy moments in his travels to and from that province of Lynn for, in his position, he had charge of the firearms and ammunition and it was not an uncommon sight to see Frank innocently explaining to some limb of the law that he was not starting a revolution, but merely transporting the cannons to the college for the rifle team practice. So to Frank we say, if you can meet the difficulties, which life will cast in your path, with the same en- thusiasm and self-confidence with which you were ac- customed while among us, we are certain that you will reach the heights of success.

John is one of the most successful members of our Pre-Med class. He is one of our prominent Argufiers and always took his place at the council table of the lunch room de- bating society. He is a rather dangerous man to argue with, however, as he is apt to get slightly riled at the so-called stupidity of his worthy opponent. Also his voice was never silent at the meetings of the Balance Room Gang, and he has the dubious honor of being president of the bottle breakers academy, a group which has as its end the generous endow- ment of the chemistry department. John ' s specialty, however, is pleasant scientific discussions with a certain Biology Prof, who delights in drawing count- less red lines through the most beautiful sketches and drawings. We shall certianly be sorry to say good- bye to John on Commencement Day, and we shall know that we are parting from a very pleasant friend and a staunch supporter of Boston College.

Although Cambridge has sent many men to Boston College, Frank was the first University City lad to have had the honor of serving as chairman of the Philomatheia Ball. The smoothness v hich character- ized every phase of the prom augurs well for Frank s future,- for the success in every detail was due in no small part to his business ability and enthusiasm. Coming from the city which fosters the largest and most successful Boston College Club, Frank has played a vital part in all the activities of that organiz- ation, hlis ability to interest people in Boston College has won him his title, Boston College Salesman. Although, in order to be worthy of such a name he had to be busy at all times, still he was always ready to support extra-curricular activities and the various Boston College functions. Frank however is not merely a business man; in addition, he possesses a little stage talent. If you have never heard his imita- tions of Joe Penner, the next best thing is to see the famous Wanna-Buy-a-Duck man himself. Tho some call him ' Mister ' to us he will always be just Buzza. . . .

FHe was never satisfied in doing merely what was re- quired. He did what was required, did it well, and then went on to see what further benefits he could drive from study on his own initiative. But study wasn ' t exactly everything with Mac. There are some who think it was, especially the study of the physical sciences. But we have evidence of an artistic side to his nature for he is so proficient as an organist that he was able to partly defray his college expenses by the use of this musical talent. As Mac has not neg- lected either the scientific or artistic sides of his nature, so he has not overlooked the social side as his intimate, though almost universal friends will testify. But through all his studies, outside activities, and every other necessary duty that characterizes a college man ' s life, he has kept his eye on his goal — to become a successful doctor; and we know him to be possessed of all the qualities necessary to the fulfillment of his desire. . . .

The true character of Jim is clearly portrayed in his broad smile, hlow often have we been rescued from a world of gloom and disgruntlement by the gleaming flash on his teeth! If on no other title, his daily trek to and from Lawrence is sufficient to win for him laurels. But weary travel is the least of many burdens which Jim has patiently and successfully borne. He may be justly heralded for far more illustrious and praiseworthy accomplishments. To find him at the h eights, one merely had to step inside the lunch- room, where Jim would probably be telling his compatriots, Greenler, Sullivan and company, all those nice things about the secluded intricacies of Regis. Did you know that Jim has an excellent voice? hie himself refuses to become obsessed with that belief. But we have heard him sing (when he thought no one was listening) and we can vouch for his musical ability. Whether or not he has aspirations to follow the way of McCormick and Downey (which we doubt), we who know him can assure the world that, whatever may be his field of endeavor, he can not fail. ... 18th floor Hotel Taft . . . what a voice! . . . serenade on N.

Unabashed by these minor difficulties, he persevered and has received his reward. Beside spending much time reading, thus gaining a wide knowledge so helpful today, Ray found time to become a member of the sodality which played an important part in our college life. Besides this, he concentrated his efforts in the Ethics Academy. No doubt after graduation, he will enter the field of social work where his quiet manner and kindly nature will prove of invaluable assistance, hlis preparation in this field has been the finest, since he has taken the fullest advantage of his course in Sociology.

And now we come to the narration of facts about one of tfie quietest and most unassuming members of tfie Class, Billy McNiskin, who journeys daily to the hieights from Lowell. Volumes could be written on what he has done to build up and enlarge the Lowell B. C. Club. Its financial stability was realized largely through Bill ' s unrelenting efforts. There was scarcely a class activity at which he was not present. Nor should we neglect to remark that his choice of part- ners for these excursions into evenings of song and dance, was that of a connoisseur who varies his selections and exhibits remarkable taste. While always a sociahte of recognized eligibility, yet Bill never lost his status of a student of merit. The tennis team knew his worth. With his assistance B. C. tennis of ' 35 reached new heights, especially in the South, where even Billy himself donned a suit, and carried on to the attainment of love-victories. Much could be said of divers recollections we have from our years of acquaintanceship. But suffice it to epitomize it all by saying that Bill has made College the pleas- anter for many of us, and the ending of it the harder. . . .

After four years of persistent effort, both in the classics and in pursuit of pre-medical requirements, John ' s struggles have finally borne fruit. We know that, in his chosen profession, he will be a defender of enviable standards, when he becomes a student at Tufts Medical School in the Fall, hlis leisure time, what little he had after many wearisome hours in the laboratory, were spent in many extra-curricular ac- tivities. Sodality and Dramatics took much of his time, while he received his relaxation from tennis and track. That his medical knowledge might be supple- mented, he enrolled among the members of the active Pre-Medical Academy. As a student of American History he has few peers and the history class ap- preciated his genus of knowledge, hlis chief hobby is the raising and showing of pigeons. Seriosity, studded with pleasantness, will always remind us of John.

He has that same quiet knowledge which they imbibed from the tomes of the times. This insight into matters obscure to most of us is quickly and easily brought forth when he is challenged. Not only is the answer correctly and clearly given but in addition, the information is replete with facts which forbid of any further questioning. hHowever Frank showed his greatest proficiency in the English class. There his vast knowledge of the classics came to his did. He could give at will the context of almost any passage, and was accordingly, a source of wonder to those of us less fortunate. We sincerely believe that any man who can speak on a subject not only intelligently, but also with precise English makes his arguments more forceful, and retains the attention of the listeners.

A serious type, he has taken to the intricate work of philosophy as a duck takes to water. The library staff has become so accustomed to his regular reading diet that, when the name of McSweeney is announced they immediately start for that section of the stacks in which the philosophical tomes are kept. In all sincerity, however. Art is one of the best read men in our class, at least in so far as philosophy is concerned. Art has confided to his close friends that he will publish a five-volume set of Philosophy Notes, edited by Arthur J. McSweeney, Sometime Professor of Philosophy, Harvard University. Such an ambition is surely commendable. To offset the fatigue resulting from such labor. Art has found his relaxation either by taking long walks or lazily rolling along in his Pontiac. An ardent admirer of Fr. Fulton Sheen, Art has already shown ability as a speaker and de- fender of right, so that we may expect to hear soon of Dr. McSweeney lecturing at one of our leading universities. . . .

When, in the fall of 1931, we entered these halls as Freshmen, we were naturally ill at ease for a while. That feeling lasted, however, only until we came in contact with Tom McTiernan, and then it vanished. For Tom was a sure dispeller of gloom and uneasiness. We found him then in the midst of a group, where he was the center of attraction, and now, four years later, when we look for Tom, we look for that same group. He had qualities not found in many, viz.: a true spirit of goodfellowship, and an easy, carefree manner. These were the traits by which he was known, and these will be the factors which will count heavily in bringing him future well being. Always was he the true friend and mirth-provoker. His alliance in that triumvirate of Freshmen will long be remembered; his exploits in the Journalism class cannot be forgotten. The merits of the Boston Police Department and the demerits of the Lawrence Fire Department, or vice versa, as argued by Tom and his pal, Sullivan, afforded many of us hours of enjoyment and laughter. His memory will live with us and may his presence embody success. . . . hlollywood theatre . . . journalism fiend . . . breaks watches . . . your turn to buy . . .

If you have ever attended any of the dances con- ducted by the Class of ' 35, you know Bob Mac- Donald. If you wanted to get the real low down on how George Raft and Fred Astaire do it. Bob Mac- Donald was the man to consult. Our class smokers produced many talented fellows but none better than Bob. The way he used to interpret those im- mortal masterpieces of classical composers such as Calloway and Lunceford was ample proof of what a thorough education in the appreciation of the arts in a strictly classical college can accomplish when a fellow really wants to get into the spirit of the thing. Dialect comedians are always plentiful but the trouble is that often times they have the dialect but not the comedy. However, the Dorchester farmhand could probably go to Washington and get Farm Relief from Roosevelt for the stricken farmers of the devastated fields of Dorchester. That ' s how good Bob is. We ' ll certainly miss this versatile classmate who, at one moment, is staging a Cab Calloway floor show or teaching George or Fred a few new steps and, at the next moment, is preaching Farm Relief for the Plains of Dorchester. . . .

From South Boston came this future M.D. — the greatest Roman of them all. During the four years of his stay at the hieights, Julius was a familiar Figure at all Boston College functions for, although he had chosen the confining pre-med course, he believed that the social world was the best world after all. However, when the time came to take his elective seriously, Julius could be found intently peering into a microscope in the lab. Although he liked a good time best, Mac ' s second love was music. A capable horn tooter, he was an essential part of the band. Such Interests would tax the abilities of the ordinary student but Mac still had time to smile and make countless friends, hlowever his ability to make and keep friends was not his only talent for, In addition, he was a diligent and thoughtful student, a man with a high purpose and the will to achieve his goal. Our wish Is that Mac may be as successful in his specialized courses as he has been during his college life. What more can we wish him than that his clients may be numerous and wealthy. . . .

When John was elected Secretary of the Junior- Senior Sodality, an honor was conferred on a man who was most deserving. Mac ' s ability to construct a clear secretary ' s report from a mass of disjointed notes was proved conclusively in our Freshman year. Back In the days when h lstory was a part of our curriculu m and the professor liked to have his students take full and copious notes, John proved his stamina. Not being a student of shorthand, he could not take down Mr. Doyle ' s lecture word for word. h e only managed to get every other word but that was sufficient to give him a notebook which, at the end of the course, made Guggenberger ' s two volumes look like brief outlines. John ' s ability in the class- room was clearly established by his constant and pro- longed application to his studies during his Freshman year, hie continued his excellent record throughout his four years and, In his Senior year, devoted much time to extra-curricular activities, hlls last two years brought him forth as a valuable source of questions In any periods and this, coupled with his ability, will preserve John In our memories. . . . driver of Arlington express . . .

Popularity must necessarily have its reward either at college or afterwards. We believe that Frank has received his here at the hieights. Before he entered B. C. he was an outstanding ball player at English High, but rather T:han sacrifice his time for athletics on such a great competitive scale, he applied his every moment to aiming for a career after college. Seeing him daily around these halls, we do not think that Frank has wasted a minute, hlis ability in Journal- ism is of common knowledge. FHis support of every- thing that concerned his class should be worthy of emulation. His friendship with practically all Seniors caused his appointment to the chairmanship of the photographic committee — a discouraging position to anyone of less perseverance or less proclivity for acquiring new acquaintances. We have never seen him when a smile did not brighten his countenance,- pleasantness was always his halo. Dorchester has be- come famous for its contributions to Boston College, and again it has been successful. But we might also mention at this point a certain section of that town which knows the constant tread of his steps. The Hearst organization will receive a valuable employ- ee, and we know that some day an Editor ' s chair will envelop him with success. . . . Give me the working girl, any day . . . . . .

On some not too future date, we will probably read of the success of Emmet ' s business ventures. A close student of Accounting, Bob kept Mr. Clarkson busy answering his real difficulties, many of which were gleaned from his study of actual business con- ditions. However, he didn ' t confine his attention to business interests, but, in addition, he became an ardent student of psychology and ethics. A serious student, Bob still found time to demonstrate his own natural wit and appreciate that of others. While working at the Country Club, he was so near and yet so far from his favorite sport — golf. However, when- ever the opportunity arose. Bob could be seen driv- ing the little white pill across the bonny brae. Thus, while the sun set over Brookline ' s hills, he corrected his slices, practiced his chips and perfected his putting stance. So, Bob has the proverbial qualities which are found in the succesful business man, viz.: a pro- found knowledge of business matters, a logical mind, a captivating sense of humor, and that which, if we are to believe all reports, is most essential to all — a good game of golf with a variety of well-played shots. . . .

As the reader turns the pages of the biography section of this year book, it will be noticed that many of the Seniors hail from the same section of Boston. So many, that in fact it can well be called the birthplace of Boston College men. This district is called Roxbury, and now one more name will be added to that long list of illustrious graduates, the name of Richard Maloney, better known as Dick. Dick is a short, sturdy chap, well-liked by his fellow students, and a hard and industrious worker. No better proof of this is needed than to say that Dick is a pre-med student . . . which means that when other students are enjoying the outside activities after classes, such as sports, or the various academies, Dick is up in the science labs in a labyrinth of formulas and test tubes. From our knowledge of Dick, it is easy to believe that when he leaves the towers of the Heights for the last time, carrying with him that ability for hard work, coupled with the fund of knowledge that is his, he will face a future indeed propitious. The class joins in wishing the best to be effective at an early future date. . . . call me Crdnddll . . . summers in Ireland and Chicago ... his Chevvie really starts without being coaxed.. . goes to all farewell parties and funerals.

An example of a timid soul is best defined by Boston College seniors as a student who has qualities that are opposed to those of John. His self assurance is, however, justifiable, for whenever he pursues a subject he does so with force, sincerity and the ad- vantage of a deep-reaching and far seeing mind. As a debater, his ability is recognized not only in the Fulton and local organizations where he has spoken, but especially among the intercollegiate opponents of the Fulton. His forensic ability, together with the wonderful training received at college will stand him in good stead. Outside of class his buoyant and jovial nature was an advantage and pleasure to his companions. His ideals are of a truly Christian nature. A keen student of Sociology, we expect John to enter the Field of social service. His abilty and train- ing, guided by well established ethical standards, will prove invaluable in his later life. His compan- ionship during the four years at college has been a pleasure to his fellow students and never a source of trouble to his professors. John has our best wishes for complete and lasting success. . . . Legal advice from O ' Brien and O ' Brien . . . meat cutter . . . Fulton punster . . .

Presenting Doc Mathison, the only Boston College man who has ever completely explored the various towers, peaks, and passages of the Science Building! For, as his nickname implies. Doc is a scientist, and when a scientist decides to put up a new transmitting antenna, or take down an old one, he thinks nothing of hanging by his heels from a hundred foot tower. The Doc is responsible for most of the wires strung around the Science Building and he did a fine job in constructing the new transmitter for the Radio Room. Bill was one of the five o ' clock boys, and many times have we seen his blond head bent over his test tubes as the shadows deepened about the towers on the hHeights. A rather quiet chap, addicted to the smoking of anancient and odiferous pipe, Bill was forever reminiscing about the dear old South- land. For the Doc came to us from Loyola but soon transferred all of his allegiance to B. C. and became one of her most loyal sons. In view of his true scien- tific spirit and interest, together with his natural ability, Bill should go far in his own field. . . . Terrible pipe . . .

Many members of our class have held jobs during their college years, but Bob has especially proved himself an able business executive. During summer vacations he has had the position of manager of a chain store. Such a position of trust clearly designates the character of the man. Of cheerful disposition. Bob has a manner that makes sure that customers and friends will return again and again. In spite of his outside work Bob found time enough to attend most of the Boston College activities. We say most be- casue Bob had the misfortune of breaking his ankle the week before Junior Week. If there is any accident worse than that, we haven ' t heard of it as yet. FHow- ever, we would do Bob an injustice, if we implied that his attendance at social functions was confined to those run by B. C. In particular, we might recall that Regis had a claim to Bob ' s attention. Always a good student, Bob had the faculty of worrying over exams when, in reality, there was no actual reason for so doing. Such seriousness usually has a good effect in later life, so that we can feel sure of Bob ' s success. . . .

A big little man with a keen understanding and many talents joined us four years ago, and, though he may regret having made the acquaintance of some of us, we are unanimous in expressing our satisfac- tion and pleasure that he chose B. C. as an Alma Mater. His genius extends not only through all the branches of studies but also into the several higher arts, not the least of which is music. For Lou is an accomplished violinist and can accomplish great things with the bow and strings. Mel is small in sta- ture but mighty in heart and achievement. His most habitual trick is that of arriving daily at University Heights at 9:29, bringing up his loaded car with a screech of brakes and thus getting his brood just under the wire. In Junior, he used to park his car in the last row of Fr. Low ' s class and attend class through the open rear window of Junior A. For Four years we have shared our joys and sorrows with him and, in later years, when we judge the claibre of our friends, we will have Lou as a standard, and will rate them accordingly. . . .

EDWIN T. MITCHELL Roslindale, Mass. Football 1; Track 1,RiRe Team 2, 3; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; History Academy 2; Chemistry Academy 1, 2, 3, (Officer 4). From the justly famous Suburb Superb . . . Roslin- dale to the rest of us . . . came Ed to be a member of the Class of ' 35. Enrolling in the confining B.S. course at the Heights, he soon entered into the true scientific spirit looking with a critical eye toward the chemical analysis of everything that came within range. One of his favorite spots for laboratory research was the lunchroom where the so-called vitamin-bearing viands passed or fell before his strict scientific stand- ards. Ed certainly is the man to consult before indulg- ing in questionable repasts whether your stomach is iron-clad or not. As might be expected, he was one of the founders of the exclusive organization known as The Knights of the Test Tube, which flourished in the interests of chemical research at the College. However not all of his vast knowledge was acquired within the walls of B. .C, for in his home town he was an able wielder of a gasoline pump. Although apparently a stern personage, Ed was blessed with a sense of humor, and this with his abilty and interest in research should aid him in emulating Pasteur and the others. . . .

It is the silent one ' s contention that he has few desires except to pass the subjects leading to his degree and then to greater heights in professional life. After learning of his course and the long hours spent under the roofs of the college buildings, one would say unhesitatingly that George has little time for anything else. Still, mention a place of amusement, recall an athletic contest, enjoy again a social func- tion of the college, then George beams and, despite the fact of his claimed lack of interest, he always attended. A humorist of the Will Rogers type, his philosophy seems to be that regardless of how the past has reacted to s ' et circumstances, the future will be pleasant and favorable. hHis pleasure is shown not by howling laughter or a cheery smile, but in an odd, hidden manner and, though one knows when he is amused or cheered, the manner of detecting cannot be readily pointed out. So methodical and serious is George that his friends always look to him for assistance in time of need and companionship. So after this brief summary of a well-liked classmate, we conclude with an expression of our conviction of George ' s ultimate achievement. . . . Artist . . . listens calmly to Mullen ' s jokes . . .

C. Club of West Roxbury,- Business Staff of FHeights. When the appointments for positions on the SUB TURRI were being made, those in charge were at a loss for a business manager. The post required a man who understood business matters, who could be depended upon and who would conduct the affairs of the office in a careful and efficient manner. After much deliberation Al was named and now that the trials and worries of publishing such a book are over, we realize how wise the choice was. Al was one of those who could fill any position successfully, and he did fill many in his years here. The track team found him an invaluable aide for three years. Wher- ever there was need of business brains and at the same time loyal and staunch support, there was Al. When the necessity arises later on for someone to take hold and bring some big business back to a level, we know that Al, in the light of what he has done here among us, will be the one to step in, take control, and accomplish the same great things there as he did here. . .

Here we present a son of Brooklyn, d city slicker, who has proved himself to be our own triple-threat man. On the gridiron he was a flash; how many times have we seen him send those long spirals far over the heads of the opposing safety men, or shooting bullet passes into the arms of teammates, or charging ahead of one of the backs to block out the enemy tackiers. Indeed, in the last year, Ben was one of the mainstays of the team, and earned a place for himself in the ranks of great B. C. quarterbacks. His triple- threat work was not confined to the gridiron, how- ever. Those who were in his classes could testify to this. Times without number have they seen Ben baffle the professor with his perfectly-worded and abso- lutely correct answer to some psychological problem. The ease with which he gave off his knowledge and the knack he possessed for understanding even the most difficult thesis kept most of us wondering how he did it. So, judging from past experience, we pre- dict that, when Ben goes out to do battle with the world he will still be a triple-threat man and will finally smash wide open the line of obstacles in the wdv of complete success. . . .

As a member of the track squad he afforded Jack Ryder many joyous moments. During Senior he became a feature writer on the Stylus staff and gave that publication the bene- fit of his journalistic and literary ability. Still, his activity on the Stylus staff was not limited to writing, for he played end on the undefeated eleven of the upstairs Literati. In addition he was a member of the exclusive Academy of Higher Studies (Ed. Note — that ' s their story).

Thoush he doesn ' t believe that progress is identi- fied v ith change, still Jim does believe that without change there can be no progress, hience we see in Jim a desire to espouse new causes, to consider new aspects, and in short, to express his fast-moving, al- most radical nature by being different. An almost necessary component of such a nature is a desire to rush in where angels fear to tread. It makes no difference to Jim who the luckless person is who must admit defeat before the unending and irrefut- able arguments proposed for the advancement of his brain-children. No authority is too imposing, no theory too profound for him to question. But Jim carries out all this in such a light-hearted, naive man- ner that we cannot but join in with his spirit of roguishness and enjoy it. But to stop here would be wrong. We must, to describe Jim properly, tell of his class spirit, his knack for leadership, and what is more, his ability to make warm and fast friends which of all abilities bears the best returns. So we have no fears for Jim ' s future. When new and efficient ideas are launched we ' ll know Jim is involved. . . . Meat cutter . . . Everett booster . . . prospective Socialist . . .

Such might well be the rule guiding the collegiate career of this none-too-loquacious son of Norwood. Although outside work prevented Tom from being as active as some in the academies and clubs at the hieights, he made the most of the few hours he had at his disposal. A perfect listener, quick to discern the wisdom or folly of another ' s statement, he should go far in the pursuit of law. - s methodical and accurate handling of details should be of the greatest value to him when the time comes for him to deal with some intricate prob- lem of law. Not given to emotional or dramatic dis- play, Tom will never be the smooth-spoken attorney who defeats the purpose of law by his actions rather, his disposition fits him for the more important office of constitutional lawyer where that capacity for picking the slightest flaw in an opponent ' s argu- ment will be of the utmost advantage. With such natural ability and such a wise choice of career, Tom will certainly attain renown, and demonstrate that, although some lawyers are merely ornaments, a true and honest worker such as he is will prove a definite asset to the profession. . . .

Many a listener has been thrilled by his original rendition of some favor- ite tune which stormed the crevices of that spacious labyrinth. But apart from the exercising of the larynx, he is also a capable sportsman. A hiker of note, Andy does more walking and less talking. The Grecian art of wrestling is his pet hobby and, more than once, he has taken on a few of the Shakespearean recluses in the English class. During Junior, while the other fellows munched on sandwiches and listened to philosophical discourses, Andy exercised strenuously with his hand grips. Nor is potential strength his only love. Dancing has a permanent spot in the heart of this rangy collegian. hHorseback ridingandCosmology were always his weaknesses and he was a proficient lad at both.

The famous city of New Bedford, besides being well known in the country for its whaling business, also is in a deservedly good repute for the men whose success is greater than the mere numerical size of its famous fish. Out of this town of narrow streets, blind corners, but yet of historical legend and simplicity came C. hienry. Just what the C. stood for we were never able to determine, but we have a suspicion it borders on the names so unfaithfully attached before one ' s age of reason. College environs held no qualms for hienry, and unruffled he stepped forward to be successful and pave the way to future good name. As a member of the Heights staff and finally News Editor in Senior, he combined these arduous duties with the equally trying tasks entailed in a Pre-Med course. But never varying in nature in the face of any obstacle, he ever remained congenial. Such persistency, continued good nature and loyalty to his college activities will some time place him among the immortals of his town, men who have en- dured the storms of time. . . .

Verbosity does not enter into his makeup; ho A ' - ever he has the happy faculty of inteHigent conversa- tion, which consists in speaking but seldom, and on an opportune subject at an opportune time. Mike ' s notes were more complete and accurate reproduc- tions of lectures than those of any other Senior. That he used these notes was more than evident when the tabulation of marks placed him in the upper bracket of the class. hHis sense of humor is of a latent nature but easily stirred, and his humorous antics are most forceful because of the apparently unemotional meth- od by which they are brought forth. Although for four years he sternly maintained that he was not in- terested in the lighter enjoyment of the more trivial social eve nts, the Senior dance found him in attend- ance. Remarkable students, so we are told, are not athletes, so now we can prove another contradiction to that rule in the well-proportioned Mike.

Murph reversed the usual procedure by attending Boston College Law School before coming to the Heights, h e was busily engaged absorbing knowl- edge at the in-town school when he realized what a fine time his brother Bob, of ' 33 fame, was having at Boston College, so George decided to come out and do likewise. Thus we found him among us in September, 1931, and have been fortunate in having his company ever since. He goes in for tennis, golf, bridge, log cabin weenie roasts and Sunday morning hikes. Murph also has a passion for changing auto- mobiles, having a different one each year he has been with us. First it was a Nash that had to be coaxed, then a Ford, then a Buick sport touring that was the cream of the lot, since it carried a crowd of us down to the Fordham game last year. Now he uses a Peerless to pick up B. C. student from Walpole, Norwood and way-points, and when he came rolling into the campus, we could always tell that it was exactly 9:29. In addition, George has those characteristics that make him occasionally a student, often a sport, never a grouch, and always a gentleman. . . . Fordham trip . . .

When gentlemanly poise and learnins find their complement in a jovial good nature, the individual thus blessed is, in truth, a friend and companion much to be desired. Now, such indeed is Jack — a fellow in appearance prepossessing, and in disposition, eminently likeable. Throughout our four years we have thoroughly enjoyed his companionship and have ever been proud to call him a friend. - s infec- tious smile and playful raillery have lightened many an hour and his keen appreciation of the humorous has contributed much to the general uproar in the frequent battles of wit and repartee which were waged almost daily within the sanctum santorum of the Heights. Evidently, too, his talents were unrecog- nized elsewhere for, in social circles, his presence seemed to be quite in demand. As an orator his splendid eloquence and powerful delivery have won him many triumphs, both within the college and in inter-collegiate circles, and this ability, coupled with the executive talents and efficiency he displayed as Treasurer of the Heights, cause us to look with just confidence to his future. In short, we might say Jack was outstanding; he was capable, he was popular — a classmate worthy of any man. . . . What a stride . . .

Don ' t be surprised if, in the future you hear about a promising law firm of Shyster and Flywheel down along the North Shore. This firm will in all probability be conducted by Jack and his shadow, Bob Wynne. Never get into an argument with Jack and Bob. They work together like a Frietas-to-Tosi pass. When they team up there ' s no stopping them. You may be right, but it is certainly a non-sequitur to say that therefore you will win the argument. Ask Jack Healey — he knows.

Some of our classmates may be classed as modest- youths but Bill certainly surpasses any that we have heard of. Many of us remember his brilliant attempt in the mile run while he was a Freshman when he lapped the entire field and then withdrew because of a loose safety pin in his running trunks. After that Bill did not participate in college athletics but found great relaxation and pleasure in tennis, golf, and tag football. Bill ' s greatest delight in the spring and fall is to administer a good whitewashing in tennis to his partner in crime. Hank Groden. Incidentally, as a golfer, Bill is no novice for, on several occasions, he has done nine holes in 39. Bill ' s pre-med studies in Senior were interrupted by appendicitis and several snowstorms, one of which cut Beverly off from civilization for a whole week. Bill ' s greatest bid for fame, however, was his single-handed capture (?) of three thugs on one bright morning during Junior, hlis ambition is to be a great surgeon and we who know Bill feel sure that he will attain his goal because of his determination, capabilities, and, last but not least, his genial personality. . . .

Many times in the midst of classes which were dull and tiring, a witty remark would emanate from his presence, and again the monotony would be broken. Worry was one evil which John seemed to lack, for it never appeared even in sight of trying circumstances, and this indeed is an ex- ception for a pre-medical man. Outstanding in his memories of B. C. should be the Junior Prom after- math which meant a ride to Framingham on the morn- ing of February 10th, ' 34, amidst the winter blasts of some 20 below. He was never late, but certainly he had just cause inasmuch as he acted in the capacity of chauffeur to the Brighton Boys. Should character and principle be any criterion of success to come, then Nick will meet with the greatest of success, not because of the unforseen circumstances of chance, but due to persistency, ambition and toil. That wavy hair of Nick ' s, by the way, is the envy of many.

In passing through the vista of the years, we meet some men at rare intervals who have that quality of Understanding. Even a word of greeting becomes for them an opportunity for expressing sincerely their friendly attitude. In the few years we have known Dick, we have realized more and more the steadying influence he has disseminated in our lives. We have admired him too for his ability to humor us in a quiet manner. Many a tedious hour of lectures has been relieved by his droll observations of inconsistencies in professional reasoning. In an account of this nature it is only fair to mention pleasant vices as well as virtues. In strict justice we must report that Dick has a passion for the theatre. This craving for the latest in the cinema or the stage was always in evidence and sometimes diverted us from more pressing obhga- tions, but which we never regretted. Yet the desire to see human nature depicted on the screen did not deter him from his work at school. It was to him a means of relaxation, one by which he could later concentrate for greater results and this he did. . . .

The class of ' 35 can boast of a sf t of twins who have taken an active interest in all curricular and extra-curricular activities, for Cyril and Clement O ' Brien have been leaders ever since they joined our group. As president of the Economics Academy, Clement has done much to bring it to a prominent place among the extra-curricular activities at the Heights. Cooperating with the moderator of the Academy, he has succeeded in arousing a real in- terest in this group which has as its purpose the discussion of current economic problems. Often he has been seen haranguing on the rostrum in a manner befitting a polished statesman. In addition, we might reveal that it is Clem ' s ambition to become a promi- nent member of the legal fraternity. Of late, he has been the guardian of the gate at the Boston City Hospital and, in his nightly rounds, he has become well acquainted with the sufferings of his fellow man. Such a schooling in that important subject, Man, cannot but give Clem a first hand, clear picture ol the sufferings of the weak and poor, so that he will have the ambition to become a humane member of the Bar. . . .

Cyril is like his twin brother in this, that each has a distinctive and unique personality. Cyril is the possessor of a very genial nature and a certain quality of attractiveness that makes for friendships. Though he has been in our class of ' 35 for two years, he has become both well-known and well-liked, e is one of those fellows who considers that the more work he has piled up before him, the more work he can accomplish. Besides his school duties, Cyril has been active in extra-curricular work, especially on the Fencing team. To his studies he has brought that interest which is characteristic of all his activities, with the result that he has been consistently success- ful. Cyril is headed, both by reason of his natural inclination, and also by reason of his outside environ- ment and contacts, toward the study of medicine. But whether he seeks the success that is certainly coming to him in the field of medicine or elsewhere, we shall always be glad to remember him as a gradu- ate, symbolic of Boston College, possessed of pleas- ing earnestness. . . . gold dust twin . . . biology shark . . . full dress at Phil.

Some say it was due to special inspiration and that ' s as far as they go. Time was when Eddie had athletic ambitions. At Worcester Academy he entered the ring, stripped and gloved, or skuffed the dirt in the pitcher ' s box. A trace of that spirit at the College may be remembered in the band-leading era of his career. But something caused him to join the hieights and he became a chronicler rather than a participant, hie was then to be seen on the sidelines recording plays and points instead of on the field making them, and dancing to the music of the band rather than trying to direct it. Flis rise was high and justified — Sports Editor, then Editor-in-Chief of the FHeights, Chairman of the Junior Prom and Class hHistorian.

Behold a concrete and exphcit example of what college can do for a man,- an example sufficient, indeed, to demonstrate to the most skeptical of critics that college does mould the man. Small of stature, self-conscious, and self-effacing, Eddie entered the class of Mr. Bonn, S.J., who recognized the fact that the young man had a voice that would carry, that was clear, that was full of expression, so he urged Ed to join the Marquette. Soon after his ad- mission to the Society he proved himself to be not only a silver voiced orator, as the poets say, but more, for his mind showed then the qualities that later became universally recognized at the hieights as his possession. When he joined the Fulton his ability forged to the front, with the result that the Committee of Outside Relations chose him on several occasions to go out from the sanctum of the Fulton as its representatives in debates in neighboring and even distant cities. Eddie ' s cultural training is now complete, and no doubt before many years the Massachusetts Bar will recognize and accept him as a welcome addition. Every requisite for this pro- fessional endeavor he possesses to an eminent degree: a searching mind, pleasing appearance, cultured voice, and an admirable character. . . , Lady killer extraordinary . . . smokes foul smelling pipes . . . thanks for the cigars, I ' ll give it to the girl friend ' s pater . . .

Eddie O ' Brien, the football player, we called him by way of distinguishing him from his two name- sakes,- and the epithet was indeed well-deserved, for a football player he was. For though frequently far outweighed by his rivals and adversaries, sheer grit and honest-to-goodness fight kept him always on the varsity and in all the games, ever since the begin- ning in Sophomore when to the surprise of many he was chosen to make the trip to Marquette. In this vein we could go on and on extoling his prowess and dilating on it, but this would not be giving a complete picture of Eddie. For he was more than just a football player, he was a truly likeable fellow, and in him many of us found a real friend. Modest he was, and unassuming, but always helpful; hard to find when praise was in order, but ever present when aid was needed. During his college career Eddie chose the middle way . . . adequate study, lightened by occasional social activity, and so made himself a welcome addition to any collegiate gathering.

In all walks of life there is genius that is concealed because of diffidence or lack of opportunity. Among us for tfiree years there was a fellow whose capa- bilities were unknown precisely on account of this. Tom would rather have played tag-football in his spare moments than busy himself with any extra- curricular activity. hHe was content to go along, not because of an indifference to B. C, but because the limelight held no appeal for him. In Junior however, Tom decided to step forth unobtrusively and his real ability at last appeared. hHe joined the Fulton, but here again shyness kept him on the fringe of the crowd, hlowever after the final meeting of the year Tom worked hard and was rewarded. He was chosen a speaker in the Fulton ' s first Radio Debate, and he showed himself the possessor of an astute mind, ex- cellent rhetoric and logic, hie gave evidence of re- markable diligence in every study, and leaves B. C. the proud possessor of an enviable scholastic record. Boston College is always proud to present a youth of intelligence and Catholic culture, in a word, Tom O ' Brien. . . .

Freshman Prom Committee,- Fulton 4; Dra- matics 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. When we first sauntered into the Senior classroom, we met a young man who had not been with us the previous year. It did not take long, however, to seal a binding friendship with our new classmate. All of us were happy to welcome Ed into the class of ' 35 and, as we look back, we realize that it was our good fortune .that had saved Ed for our class. A ranking member of the Fulton, his apt humor and sparkling wit brightened many of its discussions. FHe spurned the formal method of debate for the genial conversational methods of the popular English style. Although he pursued the Oxford style of speaking, he always retained an abundance of Irish spontaniety which was as reasonable as it was pleasing. Whatever Ed undertook was executed with characteristic thor- oughness. - z believed in doing few things, but in doing those things exceedingly well, so that he did not skip from one task to another but, instead, con- centrated his efforts on the task at hand and followed that to its successful conclusion. This thoroughness and sincerity, his good nature and personality are prominent qualities which have won for Ed his de- served place in a great class. . . . argues with the psych quiz-master . . . home town thespian . . . reads Walter Lipp- mann faithfully . . . thinks Walter ' s pretty good. 138 U B JOSEPH V.

Joe is not as well-known as Bob, since he has been among us for only one year. He left school after Junior Year, and returned a year later to obtain his bachelor ' s degree in the same class as his brother. Still, Joe is very popular among those who are fortunate enough to claim his friendship. His sturdy character is well attested to by his daily perseverance in overcoming the immense hazards and difficulties of a trip through the dense forests of Norwood. However, the knowledge of woodcraft and wild life in general thus acquired, will stand him in good stead if he ever aspires to explore the virgin jungles of darkest Africa. Seriously, though, Joe is a representative Catholic gentleman and an excellent brother. Regarding this last point, just ask Bob about him. According to Bob, there never was a better brother, and we feel inclined to agree. This in itself has been an edification to the class. So — may fortune smile on you, Joe, in all your undertakings. . . . Worries about accounting . . . garage at Allerlon . . . rollerskating at Nantasket . . . O ' Hare. ROBERT B.

However, there is absolutely no foundation to the rumor that the natives of this town have horns and tails. Despite the handicap of such a primitive environment. Bob is a willing and modestly intellectual fellow that any community would be willing to claim. He has made an excellent record in the difficult Pre-Med course and what is more, he has done this with such genuine modesty and good fellowship that he was elected President of the Medical Academy, a supplement to the classes. Bob ' s activities however were by no means confined to the class room and the laboratories. He is an accomplished musician and, no matter how wet the day, he could be seen ploughing through the mud with the band, bravely tooting on his horn. Also, his artistry won for him the title of class artist and his work on the year book has been acclaimed from all sides. In the Fall, Bob will enter Harvard Medical, and we confidently and happily predict a long and brilliant career for him. . . . Did you ever see him dance? . . . barn tooter . . .

Tim was the man among us who was so wise that he knew enough to leave the home of Yale and matriculate at Boston College. For Tim ' s home is in New hHaven, where the Yale boys hold sway. When Tim came here he was like most of us, he knew very few men. Now that he is about to leave us, this can no longer be said, for he is known to many. His was the gift of pleasing companionship. The serious air which characterized his every action was not in his case a liability, but an asset, for his classmates realized that beneath that solemn mien was a true man and a loyal friend. Perhaps this was the reason for that select circle of friends he had. hHis tendency was towards matters pedagogical, and he was one of the most interested, as vyell as most interesting students in the pedagogy class. As his future seems to be aimed along these lines, his abiltiy at studies will stand him in good stead. And so we say to our own candidate for future scholastic honors, au revoir, but not goodbye. . . . Hails from HartFord . . . Ph.B. course . . . denizen of Lal e Street . . . B. C. versus Yale.

After having known Jerry for four years, we are convinced that when he is laid to rest after a life of usefulness and toil, he ' ll proceed to push up jonquils instead of the proverbial daisies. Jerry is especially avid on the subject of politics; his logic and reason- ing is superb in this branch of our social structure. Another quality which makes Jerry so admirable in the eyes of us, his fellow Seniors, is his efficient and alert management of some of our class activities. Due to his able foresight the class has gleaned not only social enjoyment but financial benefit as well. In his pre-collegiate days Jerry was one of the most promis- ing puck handlers west of the hdead House. How- ever, other more important affairs used up so much of his extra-curricular time that we at the Heights have had scant opportunity to see Jerry in action on the rink. We are the richer, we feel, for having known him, nor shall we soon forget his compelling earnestness in a disputation, his keen appreciation of real humor, his contempt for affectation of any sort, and above all that big cigar he brandished on all state occasions. . . .

It has always been considered good to be phys- ically rugged, but when you add to that an envious degree of intellectual ability and an ever-genial and good natured personality, there you have Henry. As a starting tackle on the football team, he distinguished himself as a rugged athlete, who could take all the punishment coming his way, and still go on fighting. He had that do gged spirit that sustains a team when the odds are against it, and enables it to go on to victory. hHenry carried that same perseverance into the classroom, hie has made a marked success of his pre-medical studies, despite the enormous drains that football effects upon one ' s energies and time. But hienry was never too busy nor too tired to help a friend or to make a new one. After you once meet Henry, you know you can trust him as a friend, be- cause he is openheartedness personified, and abso- lutely without guile or pretense. Sheer merit and worth has never yet gone without its reward. So we look forward to one day enjoying the friendship of a very successful Doctor Ohrenberger. . . .

Through the years, Boston College has had able student correspondents affiliated with the city papers. This year was no exception and we have often seen the by-line, Eddie O ' Keefe, over many well- written and interesting stories in the Boston Post. Ed returned to college last year after an absence during which he worked. However, though quiet and re- served, he easily took his place in the Class of ' 35. His newspaper experience has stood him in good stead in his Journalism elective but he just couldn ' t make the dead line on his assignments. Because of the late hours required by his work, Ed usually missed his sleep. Together with the other student correspondents Ed has won our gratitude for his readiness to keep Boston College sport teams, de- bating societies and other extracurricular activities before the public eye. After he has received his de- gree, we look for Ed to work his way to the top of the renowned Fourth Estate, for he has the ability, the ambition, and what is most important for a news- paper man — a nose for news. . . .

If a student had gazed down on Alumni Field and had seen a tall, smooth-striding Eagle trackman pac- ing about the cinder path, he could have determined by the characteristic form that Frank O ' Loughlin was warming up to his daily sprint. Frank carried his track talents into intercollegiate competition, where he added glory to the Eagle cause. FHe was not an ordi- nary member of the track team however, but had the distinct honor of serving for two years on the one- mile relay team. Frank did not confine his speed to the track alone, but was quick and alert in every task. He undertook his work with a serious determina- tion, but always made room for a bit of humor, which alleviated the burden for many of us. FHis Will Rogers quips have sealed many a discussion which was des- tined to endless debate. He was Frank by name and frank by nature. When he spoke, none would ques- tion his sincerity and his wisdom. We have now come to the parting of the ways, and are happy to say as we depart, In the race of life we will look for Frank to be in the fore. . . .

We shall remember John as an authority on orchestras and their members, whether the question be on the technique of arrang- ing melodies or on the habits and idiosyncracies of musicians. An accomplished trombone player himself, John ' s future in the field of music appears brilliant. It isn ' t beyond the pale of imagination to picture John Fabian O ' Neill leading his orchestra at the Met in his conception of Concert Miniatures. Al- though we didn ' t hear him playing often at the College, many of heard him at Broadcove on Friday nights. Like many famous musicians, he enjoyed fur- nishing the music so that others might dance, but did not include dancing among his own hobbies. in fact, he seemed to prefer skating when he took up that sport after a lapse of almost fifteen years.

Men like Ray arz the ones who carry on the tradition of the college in the outside world. His calm and unruffled features merely reflect his philosophical outlook on life. Day after day for four years he has pursued the even tenor of his way,, un- perturbed by the terrors of the classics and sciences. If ever we saw a frown on his scholarly brow, we at once knew there was a social event in the offing, and that Ray was most likely figuring some way to increase his assets that he might grace the affair with his presence. FHe takes his social life seriously and is most partial to plays, dances and Stardust. Ray has maintained a high standard in his studies.

Sodality 1 , 2; Football 1, 2, 3; Rifle Team 3, 4; Junior Prom Committee,- President, Malden- Medford B. C. Club. Four short years ago a great football player, a youth from whom great things were expected on the athletic field, came to Boston College. Now that he has left the FHeights we remember Ray, not as a hero of many gridiron battles, but rather as a student, a worker far surpassing the average in accomplish- ments. Although Maiden ' s ambitious son would have relished the idea of football fame, still he recognized his duty to prepare himself for the field that he had chosen as his life ' s work. Enrolled as a student in the Science course, specializing in chemistry, Ray had to consider the long hours of laboratory work entailed by such a course. The respect in which he was held by those who knew him best is shown by his election as an officer in the exclusive Knights of the Test Tube and as president of the large and active Malden- Medford B. C. Club. Although usually a serious chap, his pranks were original and laugh-provoking. Co-originator of the famous side saddle sweepstakes and the chemistry book sandwich, our hope is that his great admiration for beautiful colloidal particles will never destroy his sense of humor. . . .

We firmly believe that when Gray composed his immortal Elegy with the oft-quoted lines that full many a gem of purest ray serene the dark, unfathomed caves of ocean bear he must have possessed the miraculous powers of prophetic foresight. He must have envisaged invidual, distinctive men such as John, hie has been in our midst for four years as a student and as a writer of excellent prose. Not until Sophomore did we have any inkling that he could write with a clear, didactic, and yet interesting style. The hieights realized it, and he immediately became a member of the editorial staff. As a climax of his writing career at college, he was appointed Manag- ing Editor of the Year Book. Such an undertaking requires ability, as well as dependability, preferably the quiet kind. All these qualities John possessed, hie was not prominent because of his own wishes, but, to a wide circle of friends he was a model of the Cath olic gentleman — honest, industrious, sympa- thetic, blunt in his opinion, intelligent, and pleasant. We will feel an insurmountable loss when we part, but we have a feeling of surety that the gem will be appraised for its true quality. . . .

We are sure that when Pete enters life as a doctor, a great amount of important scientific discoveries will take place that will revolutionize present therapy and ameliorate the ills of the human race; for he has that one quality that is absolutely necessary for his chosen field, perseverance in endeavor. Without this, in- telligence and natural aptitude are of little avail, hie has been a conscientious worker at the Heights, and in his industry he has never been too occupied to lend a helping hand. We admire him especially for this fine quality, because we know that it has been through his efforts that a great many things clicked so smoothly. This in itself was the groundwork for many lasting friendships. Jim spent much time in the activi- ties of the various academies and clubs, and in ones whose interests and aims are so widely divergent, as music and ethics. In all these Jim showed zeal and spirit. This was undoutedly due to his dry humor, quick wit, and penetrating intelligence, traits which will be missed, for they provided not only assistance, but entertainment as well. . . . active in all clubs . . . plays tag football between classes . . . what a business man . . . circulation on the Heights. 144 1 9 U B JOHN J. POWER Roxbury, Mass. Physics Seminar 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3, 4. Track is a sport which requires sturdy quahties in an individual. It demanded these qualities of John Power and Ducky has weathered the test. Through sleet and storm a familiar figure could be seen trotting around the oval on the rim of Alumni Field. Snow was a mere trifle to be endured for the sake of giving that extra drive which would clip a few seconds off a record, hlowever track was not is only interest. As a true son of Roxbury, Ducky was at home on the bandwagon of any candidate from his district, hlis speeches bespoke the fact that here indeed was a man who knew how and when to come to the aid of his party. His eloquence was the cause of many a vote being cast for his candidate. Among his other activities he listed a membership in the Mission Hill B. C. Club, an organization which boasts of a large membership and much activity. The arguments as to the relative merit of their debating team have been lengthy and spirited, but John usually emerges the oratorical victor. In bidding him a goodbye, we realize that a fine and honorable son goes home to Roxbury and that fair suburb will benefit by it. . . .

Freshman Football, Baseball; Vaisity Football 2, Baseball 2. Our first impression of Ray was indeed a permanent one. His friendly smile would penetrate the deepest gloom. Mr. Norton in Freshman thought well of Ray ' s kindly manner. Not infrequently did Ray impress the class with his fine recitations. The Freshman sports teams were aided by Ray ' s services. A pitcher on the baseball team, he lent his ability which was acquired while playing for the clubs in his home town. In the fall Ray busied himself with the pigskin, doing yeo- man ' s work in the right side of the line. His subse- quent years as an upperclassman found him engaged in the same activities. Athletics was not the sole out- let of Ray ' s ability. In Senior he found time to join the Ethics Academy. Not wishing to forsake the spiritual for the physical and mental development of his faculties, Ray was a member of the Sodality. He sincerely believed that nothing has been lost by any student who took part in the activities of the Sodali- ties. In our four years spent in Ray ' s company many classes were made more pleasant, hours were passed most speedily because of him. If a smile and happy disposition amount to anything in the world today Ray has been more than blessed. ' We feel sure that he will go far in any endeavor he adopts. , . .

In these days of so called depression it took a super-man to sell advertising space to hard-headed business executives. John was such a super-man,- he must have been for he sold many ads for the year book, a feat which is as praiseworthy as any athletic prowess (ask the editor), although it may not be widely recognized as such. The qualities that were the basis of this epithet super-man were of the best and evident to all. We, who have enjoyed his companionship for four years, remember his frank manner and pleasing disposition. His generous and sympathetic character has won for him countless friends. Although, for the most part, he displayed an exterior of carefree enjoyment of life, still he had his serious moments during which he revealed a deep and penetrating mind, h owever, fortunately for his comrades, business and studies did not tie John down to such a degree that he could not enjoy the extra- curricular activities during his college years.

Many members of the class of ' 35 have run what they called a taxi-service, meaning that out of the kindness of their hearts they picked up wandering B. C. students and brought them to the h eights. However, Puggy took taxi work seriously, for he has been a driver for the Central Taxi. Puggy believed in getting an international education for he attended prep school at the Sacred Heart College in Canada. Since coming to B. C, he has proved an able student a pleasant companion and a talented musician. Puggy can perform equally well on the violin or the tuba, so that he was in demand for both the orchestra and the band. Puggy was very popular in the Ethics class, for he always finished the sporting page in the Psych period and then the paper was ready for distribution to his news hungry mates. After receiving his educa- tion at prep school in Canada, in the College of Hard Knocks as a taxi driver, and at B. C, Puggy still looks forward to more mental training. So we would not be greatly surpised to see Puggy starting out on his graduate work at B. U. soon. . . . Owns a taxi . . . nightly I. T. O.

This age-old maxim is very applicable to Frank, the campus bicyclist from Rox- bury. One of the most quiet and modest men in the class, Frank very seldom entered actively into the discussions between students which occured daily, nor did he ever create a disturbance in the classroom by his verbal utterances, except when they were called for. Like so many taciturn people, Frank had some very good opinions on the questions which arose for debate in and out of class but, in his modesty, he refrained from giving them utterance which, per- haps will prove to be an irreparable loss to the class. One of his pet hobbies here at Boston College was to attend the Ictures given after classes, and he was a familiar figure at most of the functions of the Von Pastor h istorical Society, hie was also active in other college clubs and always extended his cooperation to their particular activities. In leaving Frank, we are more convinced that he is decidedly English in man- ner and to say that he will bicycle his way along in life quietly but surely, will express a determination that is close to his heart. . . .

From one of the many parts of the puzzling city of Newton comes George, a man of many parts. To preserve the balance we should find something puzzling about George, and that is easy. For three years we wondered where he got the time and energy to take part in his varied repertoire of sports . . . then to our amazement, he took up Pre-Med to employ the extra moments. Among his favorite pas- times in the sporting realm are golf, tennis, swimming and driving, at all of which he is proficient. Next in line comes his interest in science, especially the — ologies ' covered in preparation for Med work. FHowever, at present George is showing great in- terest in art and artists; apparently he has found a few more spare moments that he wants to use to the best advantage. With such a wonderful supply of energy and the desire to get ahead, we can see nothing but complete success for George. As he avoided the bunkers on the courses of Massachusetts, so will he avoid all the unpleasantries of life. . . . Art school . . . what a time last night . . .

Before we gave up the quest, we searched through some five hundred pages of Noah Webster to find a word or combination of words that would adequate- ly describe our ever-beaming, loquacious and con- scientious manager of track. Bob is easily one of the most popular of all undergraduates, a model friend, ( Yes, I said Model, although he affects Kentucky Club), with a glorious smile and an awful whiffle. Many will agree with us when we say that there is one avocation Bob has which we can never forget — his abi lity for taking the gullible for very long sleigh rides. Not only newcomers are the victims of his pseudo-seriousness, but even we veterans of many past embrarassing moments fall for his bait and believe some of his vivid descriptions of things that never happened. Fun-loving, enthusiastic, and superlatively efficient, we realize that he was most sincere in the things that count. His character and kindness has en- deared him to us, and now that the parting of the ways has come, we want him to know we are truly appreciative of such a loyal friend. . . .

Has anyone ever seen Paul stay in one place or position longer than two minutes? Or, before answering, wait for a prof to finish asking the question? Paul is an authority on rural life and con- duct; even to the extent of doing special research work on this subject in sociology. So his maroon sedan, (body by Fisher), was rather well-known in Ubridge, Hopedale and environs,- and every chicken on the road fluttered with fright as he sped past. Nor were the numerous cows safe when Paul rode the rambling lanes of Milford ' s outskirts. Now we know, since Paul is an authority on rural life, why it was that back in Freshman he alone found flaws in Kilmer ' s Trees, to Mr. Norton ' s consternation and denial. But Paul stuck to his borrowed guns. Now that the time for pa. ting has come we feel there is no especial harm in telling him that he has been a friend to many of us at times when a friend was most needed. In closing may we suggest, in order to save him the energy which he so often exerts pulling up his snappy socks, that in the class will he be given a pair of maroon and gold garters. . . .

In September of our Junior year a member of our class was noticed looking at the pictures on the walls, studying the architecture on the Administration Build- ing, and seeking the reason for the name chiseled on the facade of the Science Building. This was John ' s first year at B. C. for he was a transfer student from outside the state. Not two months had passed before his presence was felt and we recognized his ability, for we found him cheerfully and successfully assailing the studies of Junior. We salute you, John, for your courage in attempting such a task and we marvel at your mastering of It. The Senior year found John less burdened with studies and better acclimated to the campus. The spare time that he then possessed was devoted to the assistance of those who were trying to further the purposes and ideals of Boston College by the work of the various extra-curricular activities. Though having known him for only two years, still from this rather short association we have derived great benefits. We arz sure that just as we have, so will the world find John a ready and able worker and a constant friend. . . . Newburyport . . . avoids the fair sex . . . the only one who could answer Fr.

Long before Pat struck Ethics and the discourses on rights and duties, he knew a lot about one ' s rights as an Individual. A certain French professor claimed that Pat never owned a French book . . . Quick to retort, Pat claimed that he owned one but had for- gotten it. Although this alibi is quite popular amongst B. C. students, not all the fellows are quite as forceful In backing their alibi as Pat was. In an atmosphere of various characters, Pat held the rostrum among those who are appreciated by their fellow students. FHe never was prominent, not because of inability, but because of a preference to accomplish the work he intended as a Freshman and which he has completed as a Senior. When a fellow spends two hours trying to get his car started and then travels through sub- zero temperature only to have the buggy freeze up en route, forcing the driver, clad in a dress suit, to get out onto the highways of Massachusetts and spend a half hour trying to thaw out the radiator, eventually arriving at his $8.00 Junior Prom at 12:30 A.M., just too late to get a bite to eat, — and then he says he had a good time, that fellow Is a true college man.

A Firm believer in the theory that things can be done best if they are taken as they come, John has demonstrated conclusively that such a path may lead to success. hHis open and frank manner has gained him innumerable friends and no enemies, for he is completely lacking in guile. Not the type to over- burden himself with studies, he soon dispelled the fears of others by maintaining a high scholastic record. He has a habit (or shall we say a faculty) of getting into the most intricate situations with his car, and he is always willing to tell any listener of his thrilling escapades. It has been whispered about that John recently won a hoop-rolling contest, and so, as tradition at one of the girl ' s colleges has it, the lucky one will be the first benedict of the class. Rumors may be wrong, of course, but time alone will tell. We of ' 35 wish John the best of luck, and we look for his achieving the heights in his chosen career, which, if the choice of electives be any criterion, is that of business. ...

Who is that young man, scowling so ferociously, and arguing so earnestly? Why that is our Joe, philosopher par excellence, and one of the most popular men in the Senior class. As we have inti- mated, Joe ' s forte is arguing about anything and everything, but particularly about philosophy. Joe ' s favorite theory was that I don ' t know what you are talking about, but undoubtedly you are wrong, and I ' ll prove it to you, and he would then proceed to prove it. Time and time again we thought that we had Joe cornered, but ' defeated he would argue still and suddenly we would find the tables turned and we would be in a corner, having to make the most of it. Joe could be found any day either in the lunch room or the lab, being president of the Lunch Room Council and honorary chairman of the Balance Room Gang. Yes, Joe is a premedical student, and a very successful one. A very loyal supporter of all school activities, he was very conspicuous among those in attendance at dances, due to his rather un- orthodox manner- of waltzing. Joe is the type that will be successful, and it goes without saying that we will now as always, watch his career with friendly interest. . . .

Although Dan could be chosen as the man with the heartiest laugh of his class, yet there is, beneath his seemingly unending jollity, a shrewdness that usually escaped his many and varied acquaintances. His attitude towards any one subject or person is not entirely one-sided, as is the case with so many others, but he considers both sides. Finding both good and bad points. This attitude of Dan ' s will help him later in life when many a heated discussion can be cleared up by such a diplomatic trend of thought. Due to outside activities, Dan found little time to spend around the College after classes were dis- missed. However he did enter the French Academy in his last two years, and here in the company of thinkers and philosophers his mind, already de- veloped in the knowledge of the French language, received even more training. Dan, ever one who could, with those powerful shoulders and his happy- go-lucky disposition, put many a fellow on the right path, will no doubt discover that his help which he has given to others will be useful in putting himself on the road to success, a road we know he will soon be traveling.

What a pleasure this world would be to live in if each and all went around as Al does, giving advice and words of good cheer in his voluble manner. Al makes use of every ounce of energy he possesses, He is kept busy working week-ends, and yet with such a handicap he has still displayed his natural ability by his results. Another part of his limited time he devotes to fencing, a sport which requires none but superior skill. Before Senior Year Al possessed only a vague idea of this sport, and now, in less than three- quarters of the school year, he has become an expert swordsman. This ability of his in this alert athletic event was evinced in many inter-collegiate tourna- ments. Whatever time remains he devotes to the Fulton Debating Society. His eloquent and fluent manner of speech was so outstanding that he was a contestant in the prize debate. He has shown his initiative by securing lecture debaters and taking actual part in them. This department of Fulton owes its complete success to the unceasing and untiring efforts of Al. Thus in all his activities, whether it be in fencing, debating or studies, Al has made himself worthy of emulation by our successors. . . .

There is an enduring ardor in John s love for his home town that transcends all other patriotic affec- tions of his heart. It is neither to be chilled by ridicule nor daunted by comparison. Well may the town of Rockland tender John a vote of thanks for the pub- licity he gave it during his stay at the college. Fre- quently between classes he could be heard telling of the town ' s activities to his urban friends who de- hghted in hearing of the pastimes of men who live near green pastures. However John took it all good- naturedly and is to be admired for his loyalty to his home town. And almost equally loyal was he in the frequency of his visits to our library. In fact, he used to make a daily pilgrimage to peruse the newer books, but chiefly t6 read the latest installment of the current serial in Collier ' s Weekly. John took his studies seriously, yet he supported every class ac- tivity, hlis intimates remember him for his pleasant disposition and ready smile, a smile that revealed a happy heart and remarkable dimples.

From far off Peabody came Joe and, unmo ved by the hustle and bustle of city life for four years, he pursued the even tenor of his way. We will always remember Joe for his exceptional ability in oratory. At times we did get a bit envious to see him rise and slowly, but confidently, harangue an attentive audi- ence to the point of docility. Then gradually we could see their sentiments shifting in his favor. De- bating was his forte and he was, as a result, elected second term President of the Fulton. In Joe we have the rare attributes of ability and confidence, happily intermingled. This Fall our monotonous moments were enlivened by his anecdotes on the pleasant exper- iences of Maine life in the summer. What a fond love he has for this Northern territory and its inhabitants. True character is easily discernible and, although we do not know what calling will be favored with his presence, if his showing as President of the Fulton means anything, he is bound for future greatness. If it is true, then, that a genial disposition and natural ability are the primary requisite for success, Joe has indeed a head start on most of us. . . .

If he had lived in the days of the Romans, Joe would most likely have been an Epicurean. FHis per- petually happy disposition would not allow him to act otherwise than in the most pleasant manner to all. Since he joined us on the Heights he has been a source of friendly companionship at all times. Nothing ever seems to bother him and rightly so, for every- thing comes so easily to him. Studies, extra-curricular activities, social events — all were his for the asking. Friends surround him by the score. Everyone seems to have a good word for Joe, be it superiors, his professors or his companions. When we think of Joe his bosom companion John Ryan comes also to mind. Clever history students who knew their matter and who could find difficult questions for the Prof., Joe and Elmer Rynne got along handsomely in this famous class. His future is no doubt assured, since all his enterprises are so successful. This will continue through his life. Those who know him wish him the best of luck and hope they will have the privilege of having him as a friend in the future. . . .

Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; SUB TURRI; Biology Seminar, (Vice-President 4). A man who can spend countless hours in a pre- med lab and still smile is a man who has a true sense of proportion. Such is Tom, Dorchester ' s future medico. His spontaneous smile and ready wit, inter- posed here and there with the tiniest bit of subtlety, gives a personality that is sure to make friends. In addition, his ability as a student has long been ac- knowledged by classmate and professor alike. Al- though much of his time has been spent among test tubes in the various labs of the Science Building, Tom has managed to withstand these weary hours and preserve his natural cheerfulness. Even though he chose the hardest course at the Heights, Tom was always interested in class activities. Such ability as he has shown, such good humor even at times of greatest strain, such willingness to help, all these will prove of inestimable value to him when, as wielder of the scalpel, he takes his place in his profession. We, who are aware of his outstanding qualities and abilities, do not hesitate to predict complete success for Tom in whatever branch of the medical pro- fession he may select. . . .

It is rather hard to write this piece about Bill, we have so short a space to describe such a fine character. Bill was one of the most truly gentlemanly members of the class, as well as one of its most consistent scholars. In manner he Is calm and quiet-voiced, but possessed of a wonderfully contagious deep and hearty laugh. To those who are his intimates, he is known as the embodiment of sincere friendship. Bill can always be relied upon, always trusted. There is no guile in him. As a student he has displayed a con- scientious and serious-minded attitude which has brought its reward in enviable marks during the entire four years. And as we delight in his finely balanced sense of humor, respect and admire his determination and persistency, and cherish his friendship, so, too, do we rejoice in anticipation at his future success. For we know it will certainly come, since Bill is one of those stray characters who gives the impression, which has been verified in fact, that he will make his services distinguished in whatever line of endeavor that will be his. . . .

One of the best young tennis players seen in New England in the past few years is a member of our class. Elmer may go far in the tennis world, hlis work in building up our tennis team deserves considerable commendation. Elmer and his boys have certainly been highly successful in all their matches. Elmer ' s ability as a tennis player is surpassed only by his ability to provide the class with a bit of comedy. Although Emmanuel Kant, Berkley, Spencer and a few more of the boys may not have many defenders on the hHeights, Elmer did his best to play the part of the adversaries in the Junior Philosophy classes. The Scholastic Philosophy certainly received its acid test when E. Montgomery took it upon himself to defend the adversaries who won his sympathy. But we must confess that he broke down one day in Sociology. In a very dramatic appeal, Elmer pleaded that in his opinion the Townsend Plan should be given a try, — and the reason: Father, these fellows who are trying to solve the world ' s problems are sincere and sympathetic souls. . . .

Tonsorial ability, in itself, comes in very handy but, when to the above mentioned talent is added a college education, then ha ircuts will be given in the real Classical style, shaves will pass all examinations and even moustache trims will meet scientific require- ments. But John doesn ' t spend all his time pumping up barber chairs for he is also an active member of the Pre-Med group at the Heights. At any rate, John will be able to apply a local anesthetic in order to deprive some of the beau brummels of their waving curls. Among our classmates, John has already gained great prominence for his scalping ability. But, to get serious, John has been an habitue of the Pre-Med laboratories and seems to be well prepared for his future career. In addition to the fields previously mentioned, John took a great interest in things his- torical at the College — in fact, he often spent many hours writing outlines. hHowever, John still found time to fulfill the social duties of the college man and it might be mentioned that he selected Winthrop as his favorite stamping grounds.

The mannerisms displayed by this youthful Adonis call to mind the words of Lord Chesterfield to his son — Observe the difference there is between minds cultivated and minds uncultivated and you will, I am sure, think that you cannot take too much pains, nor employ too much of your time, in the culture of your own. John travels from the North End, hailing from the same parts whence comes his former twin, Vin Stasium. hHis features are distinct and appealing and his conversation is of a pleasant low tone, hlis words are said with a careful select brevity. One of his evident enjoyments is to light that long-stemmed pipe and sail off into thought on subjects entirely of his own choice. He is meditative and often disturbed during a deep pensive mood. John is, without a doubt, one of our few well-read men who has perused and understood character from many golden volumes. Many of us, by virtue of our school days, are scholars but few, like John, are scholars by virtue of their own worth. We hope that he will continue to spread the same happiness by his com- panionship that he has while in our midst. ...

We are sure to have at least one successful news- paper man in the class of ' 35. Why, of course! None other than Sarge, the great sports writer of one of those Lowell dailies. During Junior and Senior, Sarge was quite busy with his newspaper activities. h e had his own desk in the press coop at both Fenway Park and Braves Field, covering the daily big league games for the Lowell daily. Not a bad writer either, fellows. Keep an eye on Sarge, he ' s heading for greater things. The champion punster of the class is Sarge ' s dubious title. He could wisecrack his nearest competitor into oblivion in about three puns. Many a poor, innocent fellow was sent to the Prefect of Discipline ' s office for unnecessary and continued laughter in the classroom, because for- tune had placed him within ear ' s shot of the one and only Sarge. Remember the French professor ' s scene at the Soph banquet?

For quiet people invari- ably have something enlightening to say when they do speak and this rare qualification was to be found in FHenry ' s every action. But with this unas- suming attitude, FHenry was gifted with that quality we all admire — sincerity of purpose. No matter whether it was in the classroom or in ardent con- versation, there was no artificiality in his character; he spoke from his heart and it went straight to ours. It found expression in his spirit and loyalty, not only to his friends, but also to his Alma Mater,- and in every activity FHarry was found to be giving his all. To such men entering the world, it would be need- less for us to predict success; against such a make-up the world hasn ' t got a chance. Continue your serene voyage through the turbulent sea of life, FHarry, and when you reach the haven of success, may you still possess that innate ease and calmness which spell nothing more than confidence in yourself and your ideals, a happy possession in these uncertain days. . . .

In regard to Don ' s ability in the classroom, read the honor roll. Long hours has Don spent furthering the interest of the Sodality, not just as a passive member, but as a member who worked for greater interest among his fellow students. Nor did he restrain his efforts to the college, but with a few other loyal members of Mary ' s Sodality went forward to neighboring cities and towns to teach Catholics truths that they should know. The Fulton found him present at every meeting, not just bodily, but actively interested and participating. The SUB TURRI was graced by his efforts. Although the above apparently suggest that Don is distant and unfriendly to those of less capabilities, such is far from the truth. In the full sense of the word Don is democratic, hie is at ease in the presence of priests, in conversation with professional men, among his fellow students, and even with the uncultured and apparently unscrupul- ous. These latter he lifts and encourages. Don is the man we all wish v e were and with whom we want to associate. . . .

As the hill upon which he lives rises above the surrounding land, so does Jerry stand out amongst his classmates. As a scholar, especially gifted with acuteness of mind, sharpness of thought and, above all, the aptitude for retaining that knowledge which he had acquired, he is known to all. As a student, he reigned supreme and was constantly gaining hon- ors. Well do we remember his excellent translations of the Classics and his general ability to acquire high grades in Physics. Although leaning decidedly to- v ards study, Jerry was an extremely likeable fellow. Always ready to enjoy a good laugh or to sympa- thize with a classmate, he was willing to turn around and help some less fortunate brother through the mazes of a Greek translation. For Jerry ' s first two years at the h eights, he was able to join various academies and assist in the class functions. However, when the wave of Philosophy, Psychology, and Ethics descended upon us, even he was forced to forsake his pleasures and devote all his spare time to his studies. In his last year, Jerry took up Organic Chemistry and we are sure that soon we will be hearing of him astounding the scientific world with some revolutionary discovery. . . .

John is a quiet and very gentlemanly person of the type that quickly wins the respect and friendship of every v orth while person with whom he comes in contact. When we say John is quiet we do not mean he is over-serious, nor do we meant that he doesn ' t know when to assert himself. For he does, and we like him so much the more for it. But he is free from that boisterousness which is a mark of im- maturity, and which is found too often in collegiate circles. Coupled with this characteristic of quiet manner is an equanimity of temperament and a gentle- manliness of behavior that cannot help but make friends in the years to come as it has during John ' s four years here. As a student and a classmate he has shown a diligence and a sincerity of effort which have brought him success in studies and a wealth of friends. We look to that same diligence and effort, working together with his native talents, to bring him laurels, either in the profession of Medicine, towards which he has been striving, or in any other field which he may enter. . . .

It is the best school he ever attended until he came to the h eights he says. Hienry was a fine scholar and in addition had the happy faculty of being able to discuss serious subjects without appear- ing to be serious himself. hHis broad grin of good nature was in evidence even when he was delving into the most abstruse and abstract realms of philosophy to make clear a difficulty he had against the thesis — any thesis. In his Senior year hienry de- veloped into a capable debater and could hold an audience spellbound as he drove home telling argu- ments which overwhelmed his opponents. In recog- nition of his oratorical ability he was appointed as a lecture-debater to hold forth on the evils of Com- munism. If HIenry ' s delineation of the Marxian doc- trine could reach the ears of the Russians, Russia would beco me a Democracy in a short time.

Probably it wasn ' t existing at the time, but we are glad we were alive to meet the repre- sentatives of this hamlet, — especially Jim. Although quiet and modest, his ability along many avenues of achievement is manifested by his exploits within the classroom and without. A logician and a sportsman, we feel that at the proverbial crossing of itineraries of life, Jim will be one source of consolation and assistance. His claim to the enviable position of com- muters ' fame is thathe was engineer oftheold 9490, the express which conveys the Concord contingent to the urbanity of city life. A strict adherent to the doctrine Fifty million Frenchmen can ' t be wrong, he has now completed the requisite basic training and purports to exhibit the genius of French learning to a world not so proficient in Modern Languages. Let us hope, and this is no idle wish, that the famous noise from Concord bridge years ago will only be a distant rumble compared to the claim of Jim for future recognition in the pedagogic field.

It came as a distinct surprise to some of us to hear the above fellow called Jack. Since high school days he has been kno wn to us as Pat, but with whatever name we address him, he still remains the same jolly, contented senior that we know so well. Pat runs second to none for the honor of being a member and holding offices in the various Academies in the College. As president of the Ethics Academy he was one of the prime movers in the selection and study of the Pope ' s Encyclicals for the year ' s work. h e was a writer also, and his ability was recognized when he was chosen to be Sports Editor of the SUB TURRI, a position which he fillled to perfection. H % greatest achievement was the formation of a Boston College Club of Brookline. He started the movement last year and now it is one of the best directed and finest organized of the local clubs. If Jack ' s success here is to be taken as a criterion of his future work, we know that the world will receive another real Catholic organizer, one who knows not what it is to fail. . . .

A real student, he attained his highest marks in the Classics, towards which he has a distinct tendency, hlowever. Philoso- phy, Psychology and Ethics were passed with that same aptitude which he seemed to have for all difficult subjects. Jerry ' s activities were confined mostly to his Sophomore year, but at that, both the Sodality and the Rifle Team were proud to number him amongst their members, hlis excellent work in the Von Pastor Society is also worthy of much commendation. Sleigh riding and Elicia Rd. found in him a happy faculty for them. Jerry hails from Milton, and as he leaves the halls of Boston College, there remains behind him a lasting mark for future Miltonians to aim at. Well may his home town be proud of him, and hope that she can continue to turn out men of the same high stand- ard. Jerry intends to further his studies in Business School. With such a splendid record in back of him, we fail to see how he can do anything but succeed. Surely the world can use men of Jerry ' s caliber, learning, industry and personality. . . .

From Jamaica Plain in the memorable year of 1931 , came Frank to enroll as a B. S. student at the FHeights. We do not know whether he realized the full amount of work he was undertaking with such a selection of a course, but we do know that he has borne his burdens manfully and, we may add, with distinction. Like most of his fellow scientists he has been an active member of the Chemistry Seminar, where the laboratory inhabitants gather to discuss matters vital to their work. In Senior he was fittingly rewarded for his past work and given an added incentive by being elected an officer in the science group. In addition, Frank was a member of the Rifle Team where his scientific training proved an asset in ac- curately gauging distances. When the notorious Knights of the Test Tube came into being with a great fanfare, Frank was one of the charter members. After such training and because of his genuine in- terest in all chemical matters, we predict that Frank will be proficient either at expounding theories in a classroom or testing them amid myriad test tubes in a science laboratory. . . .

There are those whose advent is widely heralded with much commotion. hHowever, there are still others whose advent is a silent one. To this latter class Louis belongs. After preparing at Boston College High School, he came to our midst. Like many great men at the outset of their careers, Louis was, at first, just another member of a group which sought higher learning and culture as taught by the Jesuit Fathers. But, it was not long before he showed that he was not a student content with just passing a subject, but in his pursuit of knowledge and culture, he aimed high and was willing to sacrifice a little pleasure to attain honors in studies. Louis is a quiet, unassuming chap with a quick smile and an easily aroused sense of humor. He does not brag about his accomplish- ments but, when questioned about his abilities in examinations or otherwise, he shows a supreme con- fidence of what the outcome will be. His departure from our midst will be mingled with regret and sad- ness on our part. May success attend his activities in life and the rewards of this life be his to enjoy. . . .

Rather he always went about his tasks in a quiet, complacent manner. But under this even, unassuming demeanor was a heart of genuine gold. For no matter what the favor was that you asked of Tony, he was always willing to help you, even to inconveniencing himself. So it was to be expected that such a man would have a host of friends, and this Tony had. He has already begun to shine in pedagogy and has our sincerest wishes to succeed in this field. If he does choose this profession, hecertainlyought to be able to dispel those blue Mondays so common in all classrooms. But no matter what his calling may be, if the world appreciates one tenth of his total value in ability and sincerity, his will be success indeed. They may not be able to pry into his real makeup as we have had the pleasure to do, for the busy world outside is un- interested in character but we of the Heights will never forget that distinctive gift of kindness which he has shown so often during his years at the Heights. . . .

A keen student, no one who came to him for aid departed without a thorough knowledge of the matter in question. This fountain of manly wisdom would inevitably find its way suddenly and oft run- ning in the dramatic rivulets because, when he dis- covered that the courses were becoming monoton- ous, he considered it a duty to suggest a show. Al- though the suggestion was sometimes found to be- come a weakness, it was a weakness that meant a few extra moments of his companionship. hHence, to a show. Besides his dramatic tendencies, his second love was anything that appeared to concern athletics, and consequently sporting events enjoyed his ardent rooting. The psych quiz master will always remember the day when Vin propounded a complicated theory which left everyone present amazed and stunned for the remainder of the afternoon, so stunned that we actually remember it yet. hlis earnest manner and appreciative personality will always remain an out- standing experience to us — one that will cause us to think of college life, probably in moments of doubt, as really profitable after all. . . .

In the philosophy of life advocated by the denizens of that town, a smile is considered an essential part of one ' s makeup. Thus we should cease to wonder at his perpetually joyful nature, hlis whole outlook upon life is one of supreme satisfaction. Probably this is the reason why college difficulties appeared to his effervescent nature as the intricacies of natural endowment and were treated as such. Al has been known as the post office of the Heights. Yes, he is an honest to goodness stamp collector. Very few of us knew that we had such a vigorous philatelist amongst us and he has allied himself with those who are in the fold of that fascinating hobby of kids and kings. Not only is he well versed in his subject but his clear explanation of various stamp issues shows his deep interest in philately. Steve has spent his Senior year concentrating in Journalism. With this in mind, it would not be a surprise to see him consorting with Jim Farley about stamp books or publishing his own daily journal in the pleasant town of his residence. . . .

Hats off to the most unruffled man that ever entered the hHelghts. When one individual being crosses our path with more intellectual gifts than Ed, we would certainly like to meet him. Puns of all sorts fall from Ed ' s lips. The good ones are as plentiful as rain on the Sahara. Eddie has a solution for perpetual motion, world court and Townsend ' s plan. So a mere social problem can hardly phase him. Some students find languages a struggle, others are haunted by the sciences, but to Ed they are all the same. Unob- trusive as a member of the worrying SUB TURRI board, he proceeded to work with a casual sincer- ity — never hurrying but alv ays completing his task. Dorchester ' s tennis publicity man is another of Ed ' s titles. Even going so far as playing in the damp weather or chasing the ball until the shadows length- ened on the campus. Philosophy and his noted lec- turer were to Eddie other fields of conquest for his fertile mind. As modest, enjoyable and sincere a com- panion as we know, a good natured, regular pal, we are sure that we will never forget Ed, (for he will probably be advising the president after graduation). . . .

In Frank we have found a really likeable fellow, devoid of all sham and pretense. hHis guileless sin- cerity and candor, his naive manner of expression and his good humor have won for him our high re- gard. We were entirely captivated by his unaffected good nature; we were interested by his novel ideas; we were refreshed by his wit. In short we discovered in him a really vital person — always appealingly him- self — a friend whose advice would always be help- ful, whose dependability would be most assuring. Before Frank swooped down on B. C. from up north in Lawrence, we had always associated that city with mills and textiles — but since then it has taken on a new importance — it has risen in our estimation. If Frank is an example of Lawrence ' s citizenry, it certainly must be a fine town in which to live. While at the h ei2hts, Frank has distinguished himself in all the lines of endeavor that he has chosen. In sports he has proved an able competitor, whether on the links or the ice. In the clubs he has offered worth while ideas, while in the classroom, he has stored up knowledge that will aid him in his future life. . . . Booster for Billy Murphy ' s Arcadians . . . M r.

From distant Lawrence, Jim came to B. C. where he immediately captured the admiration and friend- ship of his fellow classmates; and we all consulted maps to locate the town that could boast of such an illustrious inhabitant, hlis method of attack was: first, to smile at you. This made one look twice at him. Next time you met him you smiled back. Soon you were speaking. Finally he was your friend. Next to smoking his favorite pipe, Jim enjoys playing his clarinet in the band: and he certainly can make the instrument talk. FHe derives the greatest pleasure from tinkering with McLaughlin ' s lunch when Mac is look- ing the other way. hlis highest ambition is to master Calculus and then to flaunt his accomplishment in the faces of his Essex County pals. They chided him when he elected Math but, in their hearts, they were con- fident that he would make it- succumb to his on- slaughts. Indeed we all know that whatever task Jim undertakes will be admirably accomplished. A fine scholar, an entertaining companion, and a game sport, Jim has built for himself an enviable reputation which cannot be shattered. We see only the best ahead for him. . . .

When Jerry joined us in Freshman, he was small in stature and slight in build. Often, when he played tag football or other intra-mural sports with his com- paratively tall classmates, onlookers were afraid that the child might be trampled underfoot, hlowever, Jerry ' s speed compensated for his lack of inches and, as a result, he became a star in his particular line of sport. Now, after four years, he is no longer the little Jerry of Freshman but one who is able to stand his own ground in any activity or with any person, hlowever, his ability was not confined to the athletic field. During his collegiate course, his high scholastic record remained unsullied and he was a valued mem- ber of the various academies. Several times he ex- hibited his dramatic talents at Soirees of the French Academy and smokers of the class. We will never forget his inimitable rendition (with the aid of his partner, Sarge) of his impression of how the French Department corrects its exams. Success, we know, is his as a member of the journalistic profession for he has the ability, the personality and, finally after all these years, the experience. . . .

In the musical clubs he was an important figure, playing the trumpet in the band, and singing in the glee club. fHowever, his career in this line reached its climax on November 11, 1934, when he was chosen to play taps between the halves of the football game, and was loudly applauded by the assembled crowd. Now, blithe and carefree as Walter was, he had depth to his nature. When circumstances called for it he was serious, sympa- thetic, and understanding — ready with mature thought and sound advice, the result indeed of real study and mental training. For he was never averse to study as his marks showed. Our only regret in parting is that Framingham is so far away, but we trust that we will be able to find our way there frequently in future years. . . .

Joe answers that description, so I guess that he ' s the guy we have always known as Gerry, the gaunt heartbreaker from Milford. An en- thusiastic booster for this little hamlet, situated some- where near where the Charles rises, his loyalty was much divided between Milford and Framingham, where there is a Normal School. FHis pet evening diversion is traversing the wending way from Milford to Framingham, and his afternoon delight is golf. At school Gerry has made many friends. Knowing his disposition and ability in many and diversified di- rections, our prognostication for his future is of the best. Prof. Maury is authority for the statement that Gerry will some day be a great editor, and Prof. Clarkson contends that with the help of God and Frank Tansey, Mrs. Sweeney ' s favorite son will blos- som into an expert auditor. FHe is also a debater of no mean ability and has shown considerable promise on the rostrum. We are now about to part from the wearer of the checkered suit and our wishes may be expressed in the simple phrase, May your future be as fancy as your vest. . . .

Irrepressible cheerfulness is the rudder by which Ray steers himself over the sea of life. In fact, this cheer is so contagious that all who make his acquaint- ance fall under its spell so that it is not surprising to find that Ray is always welcome company. His ability and trustworthiness is demonstrated by the fact that, even in this time of depression, his services were actually in demand in the town of Winthrop. He just doesn ' t know what unemployment troubles are, for he has never experienced them. Well-known as a pitcher, Ray showed his ability during several intra- mural games in which he completely baffled his op- ponents. Strange as it may seem, Ray ' s favorite diver- sion on warm Summer nights is to loaf lazily along the beach roads of Winthrop in his familiar Ford roadster — all alone. hHis friends have only one fault to find with him, viz., the fact that he prefers the murky cli- mate of Florida to New England ' s surprises. About wishing Ray success — that ' s a laugh! He is already well on his way. Our best wish would be that we might be able to follow closely in his foot- steps. . . .

Even after four unparalleled years we have yet to exhaust the abilities of Brookline ' s gift to the world at large. Besides excelling in the field of study, John has shown versatility in other lines; he has found time for engaging in almost every sport. Quiet and modest, he combines with his serious nature a sense of humor which we, his classmates, have often welcomed as a relief from the ennui of protracted study. FHis ready smile has lightened even that dark and dismal cave known as the Rotunda, and many a time have his re- marks compelled him to seek refuge from the long handled broom of Billy Frazier. John is at his best when discussing some obscure point of psychology. Like the stage magician who pulls rabbits out of a hat, he pulls out argument after argument to sub- stantiate his view, as his fellow philosophers will testify. In leaving him we are conscious of the loss of a real friend, one who will not easily be replaced. We wish you every success and, if the past four years can be taken as omens, we predict a full and fruitful life ahead for you. . . .

Frank will long be remembered by many of us as a fellow who could ask intelligent questions which kept the professors busy. hHe is a valuable source of songs and knowledge of the social life and pleasing quips that attracted the fairer members to his side. Probably this is the reason he seemed to be socially omnipresent. Whether it was an M. I. T. affair at which fair damsels were paid admission for accord- ing to avoirdupois, or whether we dropped into Child ' s in arvard Sq. for a midnight snack, we in- evitably met Frank. At least once a week he would query, How are you going socially? And although often we were not able to satisfy him with much intriguing information on the subject, it is one of those things we shall sadly miss after graduation. We expect Frank to climb to a high position in the business world, in which he plans to spend his future. FHis training as a member of the Fulton Debating Society should certainly assist him. FHis work as a member of the Boston College Club of Cambridge deserves commendation. We think that his present activities foreshadow success.

Away from the campus his interests dre, in the order named, girls, horses, boats, and golf. Ray ' s fame for his lightning- like decisions vies for top honors with his impeccable knowledge of Boston ' s evening rendezvous. Gener- ous, witty, light hearted, Ray is popular with dignified Senior and simple Freshman alike. FHis fluency of speech and lucidity of expression make him master of every situation. F is ability to adapt himself to em- barrasing conditions is always admirable and some- times even amazing. It is unnecessary for us to indulge in any platitudinous predictions as to the continued prosperity of his career; that is definitely assured.

Quiet and unob- trusive, yet his presence is felt and enjoyed. Ener- getic and vv ' illing to go ahead, he has applied himself to the utmost of his ability to whatever he undertook whether work or recreation, hie has in his four years at the College become one of the best known and appreciated fellows on the campus. Inevitably willing to do whatever any one suggested, Dick has been a pleasant companion since first we knew him. A staunch supporter of-the class, he was present at all our affairs and, as far as was in his power, he helped to bring success to them. Always aiming to better himself, Dick will not cease his labors when he leaves the hieights, but, no matter where he is, he will be a student and willing to learn.

You all know that nonchalant champion baseball player of the cafeteria. No matter what the occasion and no matter how excited others grew. Buff was always the calm and jovial member. Whether it was speeding along the highways at Volante speed or playing a championship game of ball in the hash house. Buff was sure to make some remark extremely irrelevant to the occasion and thereby relieve the otherwise tense situation. College and life itself were just one happy event for Buff. Back in the days when Latin, Greek, Chemistry, etc., were all a matter of life and death, he proved himself a first class blues chaser and a polished host. Remember those hHallowe ' en parties? There was no formality at Buff ' s house. There was no room for it with such a spirit of friendship permeating the air. We had our formals at six and eight dollars per, but for a spirit of friendship, give us a night at Buff Volante ' s house. From the books of Philosophy, we learned how things should be done, and how life should be lived, but from association with Buff, we learned how happy a simple, friendly life can be. . . .

The cultural shadow of the University of across the river, was most perfectly cast on Lou. In fact when we encountered him roaming aimlessly like the rest of us around a new sphere of activity in Freshman, all rumors and traditional reports of the town of Cambridge moulded into truthfulness in a composite man — Louis Walsh. This we can safely say was an indelible impression of first acquaintance that has lingered and intensified as the semesters passed. En- twined around his mental ability to master the intri- cacies of college curriculum was his pleasant habit of partaking in any bit of humor or enjoyable prank that was either contemplated or actuated. We knew that Cantabrigians were always social lights wherever the carefree college student played outside of class hours, and once more Lou convinced us that there is very much truth in hearsay. Because of his intense in- terest in acquiring the education he came for, by loyally assisting the college athletic events, and pleas- ing his companions with his readiness to partake in any plan, we feel sincerely that, when Harvard Law realizes his presence, they will be pleased and proud, but no more than we, his classmates. . . .

Sodality 1, 2, 3; Ethics Academy 4; B. C. Club of Cambridge. Four of our happiest years have been colored with the good natured, quiet, unassuming disposition that was so characteristic of Bill. He was wont to be a bit restrained in his speech to people of short acquaint- ance, but, to those fortunate enough to be numbered among his friends, his attitude was one of warmth, depth and sincerity. Bill was a firm supporter of any college acvity. On the polished surface of the dance floor, at the instructive lectures of the Sodality, we could always find Bill, either as a participant or an interested spectator. Most of us are inclined to be indifferent about such things but Bill, through sincere effort, diligently assailed each intricate part of his studies and thus, by this personal zeal, developed a mental alertness and ardor so rare today. Many say that accuracy is the soul of scholarship. If we are to interpret it thus, then, in Bill, we have the true schol- ar. Ability is the password to higher things and so we, his friends, know that in Bill, the world will find a real fighter and one who can truly take his deserved place in the sun. . . .

Before Henry Ford entered high society and stopped producing Liz- zies, he sent a car down to Nahant to the Ward family. As Lizzies go, Wardie ' s car also went. It certainly had some great experiences and its educa- tional career at B. C. was a fitting climax to the life of a faithful public servant. Being the possessor of a good natured personality, h ubie used to pile us on, long after the saturation point had been reached. The wonder is that we have all lived to tell the story. Anytime you find yourself in Nahant on a nice sum- mer ' s evening without a date, look up FHubie. For four years, the leading citizen of Nahant has taken care of all B. C. men who look him up when they wander down to tkat well-known summer resort. We all have our own means of gaining a few dollars during the summer months but, like all hardy Nahant- ites, FHubie took to the sea. He is a first-class fisher- man and can locate every lobster trap within five miles of Egg Rock. Hubie was such a friendly fellow, his summer success was probably due to the exercising of his magnetic personality on the sea life of Lynn Harbor. . . .

Like the quiet yet majestic flow of a mighty river, or the smooth, effortless progress of a new V-8, Frank ' s personality follows its unhurried course with what has been called Effortless Motion. We admire Frank for unassailable patience,- we envy him his ability to answer any and sundry questions,- and above all we wish we could acquire his manner of remaining absolutely calm no matter what is happen- ing. From the above, with its emphasis on quiescence, one might be inclined to classify him as a sluggish fellow. Yet we ' ve noticed Frank at various social functions and if anything he needs something to hold him down. His quiescence becomes activity indeed. One thing we c an be sure of: whether we meet Frank one year from now or ten, in a dusty office or in the clubrooms of the swanky Battery D, whether he has become a proverbial Jack Spratt or a portly Jack Falstaff, (we fear the latter), we know that Frank ' s disposition will be still as friendly and as likeable as the past four years have found it. . . . takes notes in class — for other people ' s benefit. 170 SUB T U R R I RUSSELL A.

A reserved gentleman is a desired friend — is an old proverb and one of its best examples in our midst is Russ Welch. Friends in name are always num- erous but friends in reality are altogether too few. However, Russ ' s intimates have been indeed fortu- nate for, during four happy years at the Heights, they have enjoyed his sincere friendship. Throughout his scholastic term Russ has worked steadily toward a definite goal. Already he has won his spurs in the newspaper field, for he is at present a star reporter on his home-town paper, the Cambridge Journal. From such humble beginnings he is bound to rise to become a famous member of the Fourth Estate. Can it be that our quiet Russ is planning to blossom out as a police reporter? We may be entirely wrong, but we are working on the fact that Russ reported for the Rifle Team in his Senior year. Working along the same vein, we should picture him as a financial reporter because of his active interest in the Ethics Academy and the Business Club. But whatever his department, we ' ll soon see the sign — Russell Welch, Editor. . . . Minute-man at B. C. . . . time-kepeer ... ten minutes to go preciseness for de- parture. JOHN D.

It may be a commonplace observation, yet it is often indicative of a deeper trend in one ' s nature, known as character. We refer to the constant fact that Dave always had his shoes well shined. A man with tidy shoes and neat apparel is invariably the possessor of precise habits of mind. Another indication we have of Dave ' s clear thinking is his notebooks. We ' ll wager that no other compilation of knowledge in the College can equal his notes for order. Perhaps this passion for neatness developed most ostensibly in Junior D, under the campaign of Fr. Russell Sulli- van against slovenliness under any guise, mental or physical. We do know that in that class Dave de- veloped the habit of pulling down his vest whenever he rose to recite, giving a better groomed appear- ance. All of which leads to our remarking that Dave has a personality as well as character, a personality that is pleasant universally, in lunch room or class- room, and perpetually, on dreary days or fair. It would hence be quite unnecessary to add that the result is that Dave is well-liked and has many friends. Our sincere wishes go with you, Dave. . . .

Sociable — smiling — effervescent — pleasant — capable dramatic critic . . . this tabloid of Gerry would continue for more words than we have been alloted. To anyone who knows him, with astonishing rapidity and marked pronunciation these few and in- numerable other qualities are garnered on swift pas- sage of words. As a dramatic critic, his knowledge and consequent exhibition of it have not had their proper outlet. We think, in knowing these creatures of life ' s comedies and tragedies, he can rival Dana Skinner. For eight years he has been filling the cup of wisdom to the brimming point. However some- day, to be humorous, we shall see Gerry in the role of Punctuality. The shock, we fear, would overpower us. But this lack of punctuality is only with regard to trivial matters and consequently we can hardly blame him. - s sincerity, as regards the most important ele- ment in man ' s social intercourse — friendship, is un- paralleled. Few, we think, can match it and for this all the more highly does he stand in our estimation. In athletics — as a baseball player and in track, the sport world lost an estimable personality. Working, studies, walking were to him a part of his existence — from which we cannot and never will divorce his personality. . . . Favorite son of Morpheus . . . chief usher at the hlollis . . .

A true Boston College man is not measured so much by his collegiate days as by his meritorious work in later life. Not many years hence the latent worth of Leo will be manifested in the successful career that will be his. Those of us who were not so fortunate as to know him better will realize that a fine and upright character is known ultimately by success. By nature he has been a quiet, immobile student. We do not mean to intimate that Leo was far removed from social contact. Rather his presence was strongly felt in the football stands and on the ball field. Time and again he was to be seen perpe- trating the art of dancing to the scintillating strains of jubilant melodies. Studies to Leo were like pro- verbial water to a duck . . . always could he be counted on to complete a defaulting recitation. Yet as naturally as was scholastic training imbibed by him, still we can rest assured that the utmost was garnered from them. In recapitulation we can main- tain that to him must be attributed loyalty, gentleman- liness, honesty and faithfulness. May these qualities ever remain with you, Leo. . . . Silent Sam . . .

Somewhere in the sticks, a few parasangs northeast of the campus is the httle town of Needham, famous for the Millen case and Ralph Whalen, especially for Ralph. For the arduous labors of Freshman and Sopho- more which, for most of us, evoked the maximum of effort, were taken in stride by this mighty courtier. Oh yes, Ralph is a courtier. At least he took good care of our courts here at the College. During his Junior year, our Needham friend became one of the social satellites of the campus. One might see him in all his glory at the social functions hobnobbing with all our leading athletes, in whose esteem he was always held high. Only recently Randy Wise told some of us that Ralph was one of the best students in the College, and the coach spoke the truth. Ralph has been a good student (especially good to Wise). He is the chap who aids Mr. O ' Keefe to such great extent whenever the quiz master is beset with some psychological difficulty. We know that Ralph will succeed because he has the ability, the disposition, the eagerness, which is so necessray to success. . . .

This is but one of the many reasons for Randy ' s great popularity. By all on the FHeights, both the well-known and the retiring, he is held in the same esteem. Although he has been the victim of unfortunate circumstances during his stay. Randy has accepted them as part of life and continued on his happy way. Never is there gloom where he reigns. FHe came to us, not unheralded, but preceded by his reputation. For a short space Randy gave evi- dence of what was expected of him before accidents checked his exploits. Still he succeeded in sharing his duty to his college as coach of the Freshmen and, coupled with hockey, his former record remained unsmirched. Randy ' s assistance to others in various ways has glorified him and, what he himself could not have, he helped others to attain. It is our fondest hope that Randy will not go unrewarded and, unless fortune has decidedly changed her modes, we are pleased to feel that he will not. And to others following, we leave hlorace ' s admonition — Dare to be Wise, or, at least, as nearly like him as possible. . . . hias friends who use dog shampoo for furniture polish . . . noisest member of the Gov ' t, class . . . freshman coach . . .

Famous For its churches, orators and pohtics, Rox- bury seems to have made another bid for fame when it showed the light of the dismal universe to a person named James Woods. Jim always has been a loyal supporter of B. C. and has labored in its behalf. As the manipulator of the score board at various football games he became the man behind the scenes. To- gether with his pal Griffin, he managed to show properly his enthusiasm at a long run by having the scoreboard act just as riotously as the student body. To demonstrate the fine type of fellow that Jim is, we have only to relate the story of a class election in Sophomore. Jim was running for office and after the vote was announced it was found that he had tied with the final winner, owever soon after this it became known that he had not voted for himself, and his modesty and magnanimous action cost him the office. We consider it a privilege to have known such a fellow as Jim and to call him a friend, hlis success will be our pleasure and our pleasure seems to be assured. . . . Valentine receiver . . .

First, class; then, to Catholic Charities where he labored all afternoon. At night Bob worked industriously at Symphony hiall. If you are classically inclined, talk to Bob and he will inform you about any musical composition that you care to mention. In his spare time he studied with intensity. F e didn ' t have the time for an ex- haustive perusal of texts, therefore every moment was useful to him. A few envious ones darkly hinted of a brother in the Biology Department and let you supply your own conclusion, but we ' ll give Bob the benefit of the doubt and attribute his scholastic success to his own brilliance, ambition, and steady disposition. As a means of relaxation, he adverted to his delight- ful sense of humor and willing assistance. His wander- ings often carried him to certain parts of Dorchester. However industry always rewards justly and Bob will always be on the receiving end. . . .

Jasper is a quiet, serious minded young man who always has a definite opinion on Sociological ques- tions. Although taking part in extra-curricular activi- ties he found time during his away from school hours to spend at his favorite occupation, as a social service worker. During his four years at the hieights he can boast of countless acquaintances. Jasper never joined the Fulton, but nevertheless he likes to debate, es- pecially when the subject under discussion is a po- litical one. Always interested in radio activities, he was one of the most active members of that organiza- tion. At any time he could be found in the company of Jim Woods and Tom Daley. Since grammar school days this trio have been boon associates. At the meetings of the Ethics Academy many words of wis- dom were uttered by Jasper. Nevertheless he was a firm believer in the axiom that actions speak louder than words and he always put this doctrine into practice both in class and in his other duties. One of the most industrious men in the class, and a fellow whose loyalty was unsurpassed, Jasper will always be remembered as a Boston College gentleman. . . . Mission Hill Jim . . .

If you asked some of the fellows if they knew Rob Wynne, in all probability they would reply in an assuring tone, Sure, I know Rob Wynne. Yet they knew only the fellow whose name was Robert Wynne. If you were not a close associate of Rob ' s, you did not know him. The apparently quiet fellow from Peabody was always the life of every party. Perhaps his greatest claim arises from the indisputed record which he hung up in Jack hiealy ' s taxi. No North Shore boy has been able to approach the mark set up by Rob for the greatest number of free rides chiseled from Jack. The old pun is still appro- priate, hie was cool and collected. Other fellows perhaps are tactless, but not Rob. With Donnelley ' s Persuasive Speech working overtime, he was al- ways the victor. They tell us that we ' re going to face a cruel world with much unemployment and little money.

Zuromskis 181 O N JUNIOR HISTORY The Class of 1936 had Its inception on September 14, 1932. On that memorable day the Gothic towers on Chestnut Hill welcomed to their midst for the first time the embryo candidates for a college degree. A rather disconcerted and bewildered group of fledgings reported for the first time on that sunny September morning to enter upon the first stages of another step forward in their educational life. A new vista of knovvledge was being opened to them; a further chapter in the lives of these shy, yet eager youths was begun on the day they enrolled as Freshmen at Boston College. Four hundred and fifty strong they matriculated to the halls of higher learning. Fully three quarters of this group were utter strangers, but so powerful is the influence of comradeship within the cloistered walls of the college that it was not long before numerous friendships had sprung up which are destined to last for many years. The members of the class took fully two months to become acclimated to their new surroundings before any class action as a collective unit was undertaken. So many and varied were the new experiences which the Freshman has to undergo that it was not until late in November that any real social event took place. At the close of the memorable first quarter and subsequent to the publishing of their marks, the Freshmen assembled in the venerable Senior Assembly FHall for their banquet. Prior to this, after having voted for the first time for their choice of officers to conduct the affairs of the class for the next year, the Frosh had been entertained with a hilarious silent picture in the darkened physics lecture room. At the banquet, the results of the election were announced and the guidance of the class was en- trusted to John Maguire, who proved a worthy candidate and one who fully lived up to the expectations of his classmates. The banquet was a grand success, speeches being made by members of the faculty and the new president, feeble jokes being perpetrated by members of th benign senior class who felt it their solemn duty to induct properly the ne A ' men into undergraduate life,- everyone was filled to the suffocation point with the spirit of the alma mater. The next social event of the Freshmen was in the form of an informal soiree at which the members of the class became even better acquainted to the mellow influence of soft lights, music and the influence of fair young ladies. The rest of Freshman year with its series of examinations, initiations into college life academic societies, competition for places in the freshman athletic teams and the other multitudinous events which comprise the average life of any undergraduate at a busy college, rushed by until June arrived with its release from studies, and the realization that freshman year was gone forever. Our bustling sophomores returned to the now familiar Gothic halls of learning in early September of 1933 replete with eagerness for new knowledge and painfully conscious of their superiority over the new entering class. Sophomore year brought new victories, new undertakings and a greater increase in the amount of knowledge possessed by the individual (we hope). Who can forget the memorable sopho- more Prom, the hilarious Soph Banquet, the dignified and solemn induction into the Sophomore Sodality, the friendly class meetings presided over by genial Fr. Sheridan and the innumerable victories in athletics won by members of the class. Swiftly the year sped by and another June found another year completed and the class of ' 36 had reached the half-way mark. With most of the Junior Year already behind, the class as well as the rest of the college has lost its friend and confidant in the person of Fr. McHugh, whose untimely death has left a deep impression of sorrow upon those who had come under his direct guidance for the first time in Junior Year. Our short period of contact with Fr. MchHugh as our Dean this year only served to heighten our love and admiration for a priest who was primarily the student ' s friend. Our second loss was in the person of our president of the previous two years, John Maguire, who heeded the call to a higher station in life and who we trust will one day take his place with the chosen ministers of God. The mantle of presidency descended upon the capable shoulders of James Mclnerney whose wisdom and leadership have admirably suited him for the position. The culmination of the social events of undergraduate life is to be found in the celebrated Junior Prom, and the expectations of the majority of the class were amply fulfilled in the ex- celent promenade conducted by the class this year. Little more than a year remains of our collegiate career but whatever the future may hold, let us hope that our class may ever be in the right and may always further the honor and glory of the institution which has so carefully fostered the growth and advancement of the individual members of the class.

Walsh The Class of ' 37 opened classes on September 12, 1933 under the spiritual direction of Rev. Walter F. Friary, S.J. Their first undertaking was a banquet on Freshman Day, November 28, 1934. This affair vv as precluded in the afternoon by a gallant struggle on the gridiron between the Eaglets and H. C. freshmen. In the last quarter of a well contested battle the hloly Cross cohorts unleashed a running attack that bore the Eaglets back to their own goal line. Fighting bitterly in the shadows of their own goal posts the Frosh were unable to stop the lunge that ended in a touchdown. The point was converted for the final score of the game: H. C. 7, B. C. 0. Under the able guidance of our beloved Dean the class proceeded scholastically, spiritually, athletically and socially. The winter social was held January 19, 1934 at the Longwood Cricket Club. It was a gay attendance with a representative gathering of the members of the upper classmen. This was the first social undertaking of the class of ' 37, and not only did it start the class on the road to financial success, but it v 6S proclaimed by all to have been a very enjoyable evening ' s entertainment. A raffle held later by the class helped to increase the bank book balance. The freshman baseball team ran through its schedule successfully, meeting the leading prep school and college freshmen teams of the East. They wound up their spring contests with a triumphant win over their traditional rivals, h . C. freshmen, by 3-1. The class ended its school year in a social blaze of glory. Boston ' s most fashionble dancing spot, the Imperial Ballroom of the h otel Statler, was the scene of the Freshman Promenade on the evening of May 1 1 , 1934. Dancing to the melodious harmony of McEnnelly ' s recording orchestra was a supreme pleasure. The Freshmen and as usual, a bevy of beautiful companions, declared one and all that it was the most orderly and pleasing dance that it had been their privilege to attend. It was unique for Freshmen inasmuch as it was a supper dance. The soft lights were replaced by the blazing overhead color combinations, and spotlight at the beginning of the grand promenade. Accord- ing to custom this was led by the officers of the class and James V. Bonner, chairman of the dance com- mittee, to whom is due much credit for the success of the affair. Following the subsequent supper, dancing continued until 2 A. M. June brought to completion the first year of college life, and it was beneficial and successful in all branches of studies and extra-curricular activities. The class officers proved their ability as executives of a year that is one of the most difficult to combine and lead inasmuch as each student is practically a stranger with his fellow, and social gatherings must have a spirit of comradeship in order to assure success. This the officers succeeded in doing. All success of unification and cooperation deservedly belongs to a co- operative class and its leaders. Sophomore with its lack of puerile adolescence, and sometimes reservedness so characteristic of Fresh- men, officially commenced in September 14, 1935 with Rev. Robert E. Sheridan, S.J., as Dean. The initial undertaking of the class was a raffle which resulted in a substantial increase in class funds. The first social event of the class for this year was an informal dance held November 23rd, in the cosy Georgian Room of the hlotel Statler. This affair was well attended by the class, both the music and the setting being suitable to socialites with all their Sophomoric wisdom and experience. The credit is due to the new class officers and the following committee: Chairman, Arthur Buckley; Committeemen, I. Joseph Vaas, Frederick Carmody, John Burgess, William Foley and Frederick Adelman. The New Year dawned with a vigorous plan to better the standards of the class. A novel idea was agreed upon. A Communion Breakfast was held in Lent under the auspices of the Sophomore Sodality. Our worthy officers have proposed some unique schedules for the furthering of scholastic ability. Prizes of cash are to be awarded for the highest marks obtained in the mid-year and final exams, and others will be awarded for the best general improvement. John Donelan has been placed in charge of the Oratorical League. On February 13th one-third of the first half of each section presented original speeches in their own rooms. The following Wednesday the same, and so for the third. One winner from each trial com- peted on March 6th for the representation of his class in the finals held March 13th; the winner was awarded cash prizes. To further develop the art of writing the Stylus consented to run a contest for Sopho- mores. The best pieces to be produced and printed will be awarded cash prizes. Sophomores, as is the custom, have carried on in the maintenance of the Marquette Debating Society under the direction of John Donelan, president for the first semester, and Daniel hiannigan for the second. They have also aided in the work of the Sodality whose officers dre: Prefect, Frederick Adelman; Vice-Prefect, Robert Brennan; Secretary, Paul Coughlin. On February 21st the Sophomores enjoyed an afternoon of theatrical entertainment followed by a dinner and smoker. Again, ability to lead and offer attractions conducive to social success, caused it to be one of the most popular in recent years. The committee: Co-chairmen, John Conlon and John Mc- Nulty; Committeemen, Thomas White, Charles Fallon, Robert Provasoli, and Benedict FHines. Shortly after the Easter vacation, the Sophomore Prom continued the enviable success of the class to produce events that are characteristic of B. C. The chairman was James Dunn. The officers for the year were: President, Richard M. Kelly; Vice-President, James F. Dineen; Treasurer, Francis J. Keough; Secretry, Paul J. Mc- Manus; A. A. Representative, Joseph A. Walsh.

To most of us they are, in the main, a group of strange faces which in the short course of a school year fail to become familiar, hlowever, perhaps without expressly realizing it, we do notice and observe them with a natural feeling of concern. For in them we see the Boston College of the future,- in them we see the guardians to be of all our dearest treasures and traditions; and in them we see indications of those qualities which will make them worthy brothers of ours and sons with us of a common Alma Mater. For we realize that our days are short and numbered and that soon we shall pass from the sheltering confines of our college campus, enjoying perhaps in that passing the short-lived blaze of glory that Com- mencement brings, but, with the dying of that blaze, being forgotten and becoming a mere number, 1935, one of a long series of numbers, cold and impersonal but representing mutely the drama of hundreds of young lives. And so we seek assurance that our successors of the future will properly appreciate and truly venerate all that we cherish and hold dear. For every corridor and hall, every bench and meeting place is hallowed by memories — of friends we made, of problems we discussed and worried about, of laughs we enjoyed, of sorrows we shared, of successes we achieved, of defeats we tried to forget, of events we awaited with keen anticipation, of socials we planned with pride and delight — in short, steeped in the memories of a thousand and one varied things which form the poignant drama of young lives. And now, just as the old musician on his death bed, as he yields with trembling hands the delicate instrument which has been his sole companion, the sharer of his life and love, scrutinizes intently the face of the recipient, his successor, so we, in leaving, seek to find in the Freshman Class, as representative of Boston College to be, those qualities which will insure the proper appreciation of all that we hallow and love and thus eliminate all fear of their desecration. In the Class of 1938 we find every reason for reassurance and for untroubled contemplation of the future. For in every respect they measure up to the high standards of our college. Scholastically they seem to have little difficulty with arduous curriculum of Freshman year, and athletically they have already gladdened the hearts of our varsity coaches who see in them a happy prospect of successful teams in the future. Last September, replete with summer haircuts, tans and sunburns, they assembled for the first time. Men they were now, — boyhood was forgotten — stern resolve was in every face where before had shone a carefree smile. In their breasts surged that peculiar mingling of emotions characteristic of the occasion — awe at the atmosphere of seriounsess and study and the imposing magnificence of the Gothic towers — uncertainty about their own ability — and yet pride at their sudden emergence, as it were, into manhood. Soon, however, emotions were forgotten amid the cold practicalities of assignment and lessons, and they who had been strangers to each other and their surroundings, were right at home as they delved side by side into the precepts of poetry, the Ars Poetica and the Odes of F orace. FHard work they had in abundance but fun there was too in the pleasant interspersion of football games, — games which found them wildly enthusiastic — and filled them with a thrilling pride and a stirring consciousness of the fact that it was their team fighting out there on the gridiron for victory. The awakening of college spirit. In November the Class elections were conducted. As hotly contested they were as any in the history of the college and, when the smoke of battle had cleared, they had elected as their leader for Freshman year John P. Gately, President;LeoC.Downes, Vice-President; William F. Ma honey. Secretary; Francis A. FHunt, Treasurer; John J. Murphy, A. A. Representative. These results were announced as a feature of the banquet held as usual on Freshman day and the joyous festivities which followed expressed the satis- faction of the Freshmen and launched the Class of 1938 forth as a unit into college life. That period of early winter followed when outdoor interests wane and the long grind of work and study sets in. Then Christmas — the social whir! and holidays that fly too fast — repitition — and then the Class of 1938 was facing, for the first time, college mid-years. One by one they mastered them — and finally with the last one behind — on Friday, February 1, they gathered for their first social function — an informal dance at the Georgian Room of the FHotel Statler. FHoliday spirit reigned supreme and the class turned out en masse to thoroughly enjoy a glorious evening. So — passed the months — winter yielded to Spring and blue skies and warm sunshine heralded the consummation of the first year of the Class of 1938 at Boston College. Then, to climax it all, on May 10th a brilliantly successful promenade was held in the Main Ballroom of the Hotel Statler — where the cares and worries of the year were lulled away in an intoxicating blend of sweet music and delightful sur-. roundings. 190 3 5 • SUB •TURR SECTION 3 ATHLETICS NAM ET QUI CERTAT IN AGONE, NON CORONATUR NISI LEGITIME CERTAVERIT E HYSICAL PERFECTION AND DEVELOPMENT IS NECES- SARY SO THAT THE MANIFESTATION OF CATHOLIC ACTION WILL BE EXTANT.

To say that Joe will be missed is super- fluous. As a football mentor, keen in diagnosis of an oppo- nent ' s attack and a master of defensive technique, he rapidly rose to a place of prominence among football coaches of larger collegiate institutions. His modesty, his intellectual ability, and his inevitable pleasing dispositon contributed toward making him one of the most popular members of campus life. Not only did the football team enjoy his friendship but as members of the graduating class we say with pride that he was to us an integral part of our daily activity. As a past member of that select group of football immortals while a member of the squad and as a coach of the Eagle ' s football destinies, he was ever a leader and a constant source of inspiration. We feel that the youth of Boston will find in him a sympathetic friend and adviser. No one could equal Joe in the position and we know that the success that has been his in the past, will also rightfully belong to him in the future. DAVID C. COUHIG Captain JOSEPH McKENNEY Head Coach FOOTBALL TEAM Backs: Curran, J., Ferdenzi, Curran, R., Moynahan Line: O ' Brien, Ohrenberger, Pzenney, Donahue, Couhis (Capt.), Oilman, Furbush B A L L THE SEASON To-day, the measure of success in a football season is the computation of victories and defeats. But to many of us, there are many more essential elements to a successful season in any branch of sport. There are many qualities that are unobserved by the technical sport columnist or by the attendant in the stands. We must admit that in this matter of numerical wins and losses, the Boston College football team was not as successful as was expected. It did not equal or surpass the glorious records of Eagle aggrega- tions of other years. But despite its losses, the qualities we mentioned were ever present, — the continual attitude of desirable conquest on the part of the team and never ceas- ing support of the student body. These, in our estimation, contribute to success far more than mere laws of averages. It is not our intention to attempt to explain the failure of a potentially great eleven to live up to its early season promise. We ask no explanation even if one could be offered. We were and are as proud of the ' 34 football group as if it was a nominee to the Rose Bowl. We are proud of the stalwart Eagles that decisively defeated the Fordham Ram in actual combat, only to suffer a heartbreak- ing loss in the score. We are indeed proud of the men who struggled so magnificently against a heavier and highly favored h oly Cross team on a day when the elements were so overpowering. If we judge the team by the type of men it produced, Boston had a highly satisfactory year. Offering no alibis or excuses, the Eagle heroes litterally dug. in and won for themselves something greater than victory. As long as the Maroon and Gold is borne into the gridiron fray by such courageous battlers as Captain Couhig and his cohorts, the word failure can never be applied to an Eagle team. Defeat to the team and to the student body merely meant a further opportunity of gathering their forces for another gallant effort. Victory to all of us was indefinable. It was more than numbers on a score board. It was an exhibition of the loyalty of Boston College to its cause. WILLIAM M. ORMBSy Assistant Coach f r JOHN R. MCNAMARA Assistant Coach Top: Curran, R., Moynahen Bottom: Brennan, Curran, J. dashing of Bobby Curran. The blond, triple threat halfback splashed and smashed his way through a bewildered St. Anslem ' s team to score the touchdowns th at enabled the Maroon and Gold to commence an auspicious season. Just as Pzenney toed the kickoff, the seasonal down pour started and never ceased. But rain was an incentive to the first victory of the season by the McKenney coached aggregation. The open- ing and consequent minutes found the team in the usual first game inexperience, at least concerning footing. But Curran started a surge that was inspirational and overwhelming to a lighter eleven and the game ended by 18-0. SPRINGFIELD 14-0 Fall weather, with driving rain and muddy field, seemed to pursue the Eagle in the opening of the season. The city of Springfield was no exception. For that reason the fleet-footed backs of McKenney ' s were never able to perform any foot- ball tricks but had to be content with careful power plays. For three periods the attack refused to function and a scoreless tie seemed to be in the offing. But the team was not to be upset by the Gymnasts, much less by the weather and so dashed off two touchdowns in the closing minutes and booted the soggy spheroid through the uprights to end an otherwise drab day, by a well-earned victory. Driscoll and Avery shared the scoring honors and Flaherty placed the extra points. Yet they were supported by over 500 students, an indication of the loyalty of the future. Again the rain allowed no new plans for deceptive attack. SAINT ANSELM 18-6 Boston College opened the gates of its stadium to welcome a small band of grid enthusiasts from the hills of New FHampshire and in a few hours she emerged a victor after pressing the Anselmian foe into the rain soaked turf of Alumni field. For three quarters, the fighting Saints matched the power and deception of the new Eagle machine only to surrender in the closing moments to the cyclonic b W .. r s FORDHAM 0-6 The Fordham Rams heralded by sports writers as the East ' s most potent football eleven marched on to Alumni field on Oct. 12jtrue to the form of cham- pions but after locking horns with the Eagle in a gruelling struggle limped dejectedly off the gridiron stripped of everything except the kind favor of the fates of football. The Maroon and Gold rushed onto the field in the second half with an apparent i t Top: Furbush, Ferdenzi Bottom: Gilman, Pzenney confidence and determination to overwhelm the highly touted Rams. Once more the backfield led by Curran and aided by the passing of Moynahan and Flaherty knocked on the door of the Fordham citadel but not once could they push through it. Many times accurately thrown passes slipped through the eager hands of a B. C. man resting alone in the Fordham end zone. Inches often separated victory from defeat. The Maroon was thoroughly out played, outpassed and outrun. Memories will always bring a glorious defeat, one that Dame fortune will be to blame. WESTERN MARYLAND 0-40 A leg-weary and tired Eagle football squad descended on the Baltimore stadium of the Green Terrors to be met with a remarkable disregard for traditional southern hospitality. Plainly showing a physical weariness brought on by a long train trip the night before and mentally upset by a most un- deserved loss against Fordham, our boys were in no condition to maintain a supremacy of three years over the Green Terrors of Western Maryland. The Terrors were quick to sense the plight of the Maroon and Gold and forthwith undertook to terrorize the Boston team to the extent of 40-0. By no means however did the Eagle take his beating with indifference, for even in his sick and weakened condition he rose to perform a few classic football maneuvers. Chief among these feats was the playing of JoeCurran who broke loose on many occasions to renew the battered spirit of the bewildered B. C. team. Top: Ohrenberger, Driscoll Bottom: Zditz, Flaherty Going into the fourth quarter, we trailed by six points. However, with all the Eagles doing their best to redeem themselves for the previous defeats, B. C. was not to be denied. Bob Curran, our ever-dependable halfback once more rose to the occasion, by climaxing a series of rushes with a brilliant dash through the Providence line to tally the points which tied the score. When the point was kicked, we had apparently won the battle, but the Friars beat time and odds by completing a number of passes to score the winning touchdown and hand which favored Maroon and Gold a 13 to 7 setback. VILLANOVA 6-0 The Notre Dame system as taught by the famous horseman hiarry Stuldreher, was next to fall before the power of ttie determined Heights crew. Still labelled by its trick forma- tions, and thrilling in its wide open type of play, the system was no match for the shrewd McKenneyites, who felt out the Wildcats for three quarters, and then pushed across the winning score with remarkable suddenness. The fourth quarter saw the fulfillment of the Boston College objective. A fumble was recovered near mid-field, and then the Eagles began to apply the pressure. With Bob Curran, Moynahan, and Ferdenzi carrying, the ball was brought to the four-yard line. Then Curran dove over the stubborn Villanova line to tally the only score of the day, and bring about the comeback of a real fighting B. C. team. The Eagles had tasted victory, and were off to a fresh start! PROVIDENCE COLLEGE 7-13 The Friars of Providence College journeyed up from their Rhode Island haunts to spend an afternoon at the Heights, an afternoon which was to prove disastrous from a B. C. point of view. They had made the game their objective and, bending all their efforts toward subdueing the Heightsmen, were finally successful, when they rang up the winning points in the last few minutes of play. • ■■Si- - ■;% CENTRE COLLEGE 7-0 Continuing on its retrieved victory tralL the Boston College eleven held the Praying Colonels from Centre College scoreless for the fourth consecutive year, despite the fight and dash the Kentuckians evinced. The first three periods were devoted to defensive tactics, but the final session brought out an exhibition of offensive football that would please the most Top: Avery, Moore Bottom: Galligdn, Donahue exacting fan. BobCurran and Tillie Ferdenzi stepped around to the dismay of the Colonels. Couhig tore the Centre line from end to end, and was easily the best linesman on the field. After Curran and Ferdenzi had advanced the ball to the visitor ' s 24-yard marker, Moynahan, the Brooklyn quarter- back, reached into the McKenney repertoire of trick plays and by so doing gained a victory. Starting out on what seemed to be an end run, Bobby Curran flipped a left-handed pass to Eddie Anderson for the score. Not satisfied with this, the Boston blond added the extra point himself, to give us our fourth victory over the Danville men. BOSTON UNIVERSITY 10-0 The next guest on Alumni Field was the revamped eleven of Boston University. The new deal in athletics had its effect, as was evidenced by the game battle they put up against our boys, hlowever, the statistics shows that Boston College was by far the superior team, for the line smashing of Tom Brennan and the thrusts of Curran and Ferdenzi accumulated nearly four hundred yards. Time and again they were thrown back at the very goal of the Terrier, but they kept battering away until they were victorious. The first score was made by Paul Flaherty, when he executed a field goal from the twenty yard line. After this score the Eagle backs went into high gear and soon had the ball on the B. U. 5-yarder. FHere Bob Curran acted as decoy, while Tom Brennan plunged through a hole opened in the opposing line by Captain Couhig. This touchdown ended the scoring for the day, and the Maroon and Gold cohorts marched off the field with their third straight win. Joseph O Brien, Captdin-elect The heavy rainfall had turned the field into a quasmire, and had caused the coaches to abandon the trick plays which they had drilled upon for so long. The Cross team outweighed the men of Boston, and were consequently at an advantage. hHowever, the Eagle cohorts staged a game fight, and were defeated more by the breaks of the game than by any superi- ority displayed by the Purple. The Eagle had placed his faith in speed and brains, but the elements had conspired to render their weapons useless. Inevitably, the weight of the Worces- terites was to be the deciding factor. Nick Morris, who was easily the outstanding man on the field, gave the victory to the Cross when he crashed through the weary B. C. line to score. Buzz Harvey, the pro spective All-American, added the point. Instead of being disheartened after this, the Boston team displayed a brand of football in the latter part of the contest that had the rain-soaked crowd constantly on their toes. Bernie Moynahan ' s punting kept the Crusaders in their won territory while the Eagles waited for the break that might bring victory. The break came, but did not give what was expected. Tom Brennan got off a punt that was downed on the hloly Cross two-yard line. The Purple team tried to rush it out, but there was a bad pass from center which was fumbled by the fullback, hie recovered it in time to fail on it and give Boston a safety. Despite a late drive, the Maroon and Gold could not score again, and went down to defeat in a contest marked by a firm defence rather than a powerful offense. HOLY CROSS 2-7 As usual, the success of the season was to depend upon the outcome of our annual battle with the purple-bannered Crusader. The season, measured in wins and losses, had not been an outstanding one, and yet, if the Eagle clawed the Crusader enough to eke out a win on December first, we would look back upon the record with the feeling that we had had a good year. SENIOR PERSONALS Dave Couhig: — A modest and unassuming athlete, Dave was an inspiring leader. A fast charge and terrific tackling made our Captain a tower of strength in the Eagle frontier. He equalled the high standard of line play which his brother, Captain Phil, set in ' 32. For three years he maintained his excellent type of football sense, to be climaxed by his iron man play in Senior. Bob Curran: — The blond hurricane, ace of the Eagle ball carriers, was the highest scoring and fastest running back of the Maroon and Gold. Bob also proved to opponents that he was a left handed passer of no mean ability. As one of the South Boston Curran brothers, the gridiron felt his irrepressible smashes which would have been Ail-American on an undefeated eleven. Joe Curran: — He helped Bob put the Curran family in Boston College ' s hall of fame. His fine blocking made him the best interfering back on the squad, while his rugged defensive work stamped him as one of the greatest players ever to back up a Boston forward wall. The Western Maryland game finally proved his worth which had always been of high quality but unnoticed. Henry Ohrenberger: — He is our iron man, having seen more service than any other player on the Eagle squad. His great playing has given the Dorchester giant a high position in the long line of tackles that have starred on B. C. elevens. As a football player, he upheld the honor of the Ohrenberger family, so successfully precedented by his brother Bill. Bernie Moynahan: — A smart quarterback and clever triple threat, Bernie played his best at crucial moments. He was perhaps the finest passer in Eastern college football and he was not outkicked by any opponent. New Yorkers realized his ability, especially a certain Fordham institution. Paul Donohoe: — The most versatile player on the squad, Paul appeared at every position in the line during his three years of varsity football and played them all well. His great height and weight plus ability to tackle hard made him most valuable defensively. Eddie Anderson: — He is another stellar B. C. end. His aggressive type of play and his well known ability as a pass receiver rank him as one of the foremost Eagle wingmen. The only thing that prevented him playing regularly was his weight. But right to him was not mig ht, it was ability. Frank Cowhig: — He showed real spirit and courage in battling his way through the reserves to a position on the starting team. Besides being a stalwart linesman, Frank constantly urged the players to greater deeds. Frank was one of Dorchester ' s contributions to the gridiron hall of spirited, courageous players. Eddie O Brien: — In spite of his small stature Eddie was one of the most dependable centers on the Maroon and Gold squad. He was an accurate passer and keen diagnoser of plays. A mark of his sports- manship occurred when he allowed another squad member to go to Western Maryland, even though it was Eddie ' s last year of competition. Bill Duffy: — Very few Eagle teams have had a reserve guard of the calibre of Bill. For three years he has been a member of the varsity squad and his playing has always been first class. Frank Good: — One of the fastest men on the squad, Frank showed great ability as a ball carrier. His lack of experience was the only reason he was not a regular. Once he got into the open, very few backs could bring him down. The only regret that we have is that Frank did not report for football in Sophomore and Junior. We feel that B. C. lost a back who could have upheld the honors won by Darling, Weston, and others. Bill Kean: — A manager s position requires consistent effort and tact not only in dealing with opposing officials but also with the players themselves. From one end of the year to the other, from the moment of the closing whistle of the last game in ' 33 to the opening whistle in ' 34, Bill was untiring in his assistance to the athletic association in maintaining its high standards of football opponents. We think that his con- tinued presence with the squad lent to it the spirit to rise to greater heights in times of despair. 201 RETROSPECT FRESHMAN Four short years ago when Coach Bill Kelleher sent forth the call for candidates for the Freshman football team, it was answered by some fifty youthful members of the class of 35. After donning their first uniforms of Maroon and Gold, they eagerly raced down to the Freshman field which was on the site now occupied by our stadium. There they began the training which was to develop some of them into future varsity stars. With but a week of practice behind them, the new Eagle Frosh took the field against a formidable St. Anselm eleven ' The starting team that day included many names not soon to be forgotten by Boston College men. On the squad were such sterling athletes as Bob and Joe Curran, hienry Ohrenberger, Paul Donohoe, Eddie Anderson, Frank Cowhig, and Frank Good. In spite of their fine array of talent, the men of ' 35 fell before the powerful FHilltoppers, 13 toO. Although defeated, the Freshman team was glorious, and displayed that spirit and courage which was to characterize them throughout their college careers. Then the Eaglets journeyed to Danvers where they met the strong team representing St. John ' s Prep. The final score, 26 to 0, in favor of the Prep school boys, is no indication of the game itself, for our boys put up an admirable fight against a much heavier team. Finally the Frosh broke into the win column, when they played Vermont Academy. The game was hard-fought, and closely contested, but superior ability made itself felt, and ' 35 annexed the victory, 12 to 0. Randy Wise, one of ' 35 ' s most versatile athletes, was responsible in large part for the first touchdown, when he blocked a punt, which was recovered for Boston by Mike Nally. Again, in the last period, Nally intercepted a pass and dodged his way to another score for the Eaglets. With this game tucked away, our boys began to prepare for their objective, the annual contest with the Holy Cross Fresh- men. Again they were hned up against heavier opponents, and, although fairly evenly matched for the greater part of the battle, they went down to an unexpected 13 to 6 defeat. In the second period the stalwarts of Mt. Saint James drove the Eaglets deep into their own territory with a quick kick that rolled to Boston ' s 10-yard line. Britt, the Cross fullback, smashed off tackle to score the first points of the day. Harvey ' s try for the point hit the upright, and the score remained at 6-0. The Boston men started then, and marched down the field, but were stopped by the whistle ending the half, when they were within ten yards of the Purple goal. Shortly after the second half had begun, the Maroon and Gold marched again, this time for seventy yards, only to be halted on the 11-yard marker when the Cross defense stiff- ened, and took the ball on downs. After an exchange of punts, the Eaglets recovered a fumble on the 14-yard line. From this point Joe Curran crashed off-tackle to score, but the try for point failed, and the score was tied. Throughout the final period the score remained the same, until, just before the final whistle, Britt threw a last-minute pass which was caught by O ' Connor on Boston ' s thirty, from where he eluded the Maroon and Gold secondary and dashed across the line with the ball and the game. Final score 13-6, after Harvey had kicked the point. SOPHOMORE The year 1932 brought with it one of the greatest develop- ments in Boston College history. Athletics returned to its proper place with the dedication of our new stadium. In the presence of many dignitaries the team met Loyola College of Baltimore and, inspired by the spirit aroused in them by the knowledge that at last they had a real college stadium, Boston smothered the Southerners 20-0. With this dedicatory vicory registered, we prepared for the Praying Colonels of Centre College. Before a large holi- day crowd, Johnny Frietas, the prancing quarterback of the Eagles, zigzagged through the entire Centre team on a 60- yard dash for the only score. A long trip to Milwaukee dulled the claws of the Eagle so that he fell a victim to a great Marquette team by the score of 13-0. Still undaunted, however, the Eagle returned to his aerie and there achieved the greatest upset in B. C. history when Three-point Kelly directed a place kick through the uprights for the three points that brought victory over one of the most powerful Fordham teams in recent years. This victory made Boston College a real power in the football of the East. At this stage the Eagle was flying high. He was suddenly brought to earth, though, by the Villanova Wildcats. After scoring nine points in the first half, the hHeights boys stalled and were upset, 20-9. The next opponent was Western Maryland. Once more the Maroon and Gold warriors rolled up an early lead only to be tied in the closing minutes 20-20. Boston University ' s Terriers were our guests in the next con- test. Though outclassed, their valiant efforts kept the score down to 21-6. The season was brought to a close with the traditional battle with Holy Cross. For the first time in history, the game was played at Worcester. On the frozen turf of Fitton Field we engaged the Crusaders, a highly-touted eleven of stars. Led by Captain Phil Couhig, the Eagles proceeded to outplay and out-maneuver the men of Holy Cross, but had to be con- tent with a scoreless tie. However, considering the pre-game conditions, this was itself a major upset, for the statistics showed that Boston College had the better team. In fact. Holy Cross did not even register a first down all afternoon. The season as a whole was successful, with the great victory over Fordham and the tie vvith Holy Cross. In this, our first year on our own field, we had a fine season. Those to follow will speak for themselves. JUNIOR A garrison finish gave us a victory over a rugged St. Anselm College eleven in the opening game. The Hilltoppers proved to be just the sort of opponent necessary for an early game, for they gave the Eagles a real battle. And so, profiting from this workout, the wearers of the Maroon and Gold steam- rollered the Greyhounds of Loyola in the second game to the tune of 37-0. Then came Centre College. Continuing the winning streak, we triumphed over the Colonels 6-0, before the largest crowd yet to enter the new stadium. That team from Centre was heralded as the greatest since the days of Bob McMillen, but Tom Blake saw to it that they went home disappointed, for he scored the one touchdown that meant victory. The battle gave us an inkling of what was to come in the Fordham game, if the team maintained the balance and the attack which they displayed against the men of Kentucky. Then, on to New York, to do battle with the Fordham Rams at the Polo Grounds. For three periods Boston fought the Rams to a standstill, but superior replacements told the story, and in the final stanza the Rams pushed across one touch- down after another against a team that gave them their greatest fight of the year. The class of ' 35 had reason to be proud even in defeat, for Bobby Curran showed promise of becom- ing a great running back. .. i W Back home again, the Heightsmen took to the air to defeat Boston University 25-0. Paul Flaherty tossed most of the passes, and how accurate he was can be seen from the fact that all the touchdowns were made as the results of passes. Dave Couhig, of ' 35, gave an exhibition of defensive play that was unparalleled throughout the season. NexttheGeorge- town men came to town. They left, buried under a 39-0 score rolled up by the powerful Eagles. Villanova came, they saw, but did not conquer, and they too, like so many others that year, returned home smarting under a 9-0 defeat. Again ' 35 was proud, for Henry Ohrenberger was the outstanding man on the field. Western Maryland was rebuffed, 12-9, but they at least scored the first points to be registered against B. C. on Alumni Field that year. With Bill Shepherd starring, the Terrors led, 7-6 at the half, but Johnny Frietas punched over a touchdown in a short time to give us the lead, and eventually the game. Then, undaunted by the fact that the experts had made a heavy Holy Cross team the favorite, Boston College unhorsed the Crusader by a clean-cut 13-9 victory. Dave Couhig, Ohrenberger, Curran, and others of ' 35 shone, and added new laurels to those already possessed by their class. BOSTON COLLEGE SONGS TOR BOSTON Music and lyrics by Thomas J.

Head Coach Assistant Coach Assistant Coach Of the many unsung heroes in the world today, there are probably none that are appreciated so little as the players on the Freshman team of any college. They toil and practice day after day, and receive recognition from no one save their coaches. The average college grid fan does not recog- nize the importance of the Freshman team. FHe is interested only in the Varsity, and so only the Varsity holds the lime- light, draws the crowds, and receives the cheers. The Varsity could not, however, be successful for long without the help of the Freshman squad. It is the yearlings who are used in order that the Varsity may polish up its defense against its opponents. The task of the Frosh is ac- cordingly made most difficult, for they must not only play their own games, and learn their own plays, but they have to learn the plays of the Varsity ' s opponents, in order that the team representing the college may be at its best. Then again, the graduating stars have to be replaced, and the only replacements must come from the Freshmen. The duty of developing players to take the places of those departing falls to the lot of the Yearling mentor. His task is also very hard, for he must produce a unified team from a group of men who have played on different high school teams, and so, are accustomed to a certain style of play. He must fit them for the system used in on the Varsity. It is an acknowledged fact that it is a long step from high school football to the college brand of play. The Freshman team serves as an ideal intermediary stage to fit the inexperienced Yearliings for a place on the Varsity. When Sophomore year comes around, the Varsity coahces have a fair estimate of the men coming up, and it enables him to eliminate as much of the weeding-out process, and get an earlier start on the season ' s preparations. Here at the Heights, this year ' s squad of Eaglets, by its fine record against strong opponents, must have brought great joy to the Varsity coaching staff, for it has numbered among its members men who show promise of becoming future B. C. immortals. Great credit is due to our youthful Freshman coaches for the remarkable work they have ac- complished. Next season, the Varsity coach can look for- ward with pleasure and expectancy to having an experi- enced group of former Freshmen, some of whom he can certainly mould into stars. RANDOLPH WAISE ALPHONSE EZMUNT WILLIAM BOEHNER, Head Coach FRESHMAN FOOTBALL SEASON — 1934 • • • - Early in September, a stalwart band of athletes clad in Maroon and Gold uniforms, raced down the hill from the Tower Building to report to Freshman Coach Bill Boehner, at the new Freshman field. They represented a new class of Boston College, another group anxious to carry on the name of the college in athletic endeavor, and to give B. C. the greatest freshman team in her history. Such a formidable group of Eaglets had not been seen at the Heights for many years. Coach Boehner realized that there was plenty of talent on the squad of ' 38 as soon as he saw the skill and ease with which they kicked and tossed the pigskin about the field. When he put them through their first scrimmage, his judgment was confirmed. They were truly a collection of stellar gridsters. Just such a team was needed, too, for a strenuous schedule had been arranged for the first-year men. The opening game was the annual battle with Dean Academy, whose teams regularly take their places in the front ranks of preparatory schools. The game was played on September 29, at Franklin. Under a continual downpour of rain which made the field soggy, and made it impossible to play good football, our boys had to be content with a scoreless tie. They made several scoring bids, but fumbles prevented them from annexing the winning points. Le Piesha, B. C. halfback, after receiving a lateral pass from Balndori, scored a touchdown in the third period, but it was nuhified when the officials ruled that the pass was a forward and not a lateral. The outstanding ground-gainer of the game was Tom Guinea, of the Freshmen. The Providence College Freshmen provided the opposition in the second game. The scene of the fracas was the Cycledrome in Providence, the date was Columbus Day. After a hard battle the Eaglets emerged victorious, due mostly to Bullet Kissel, who intercepted a Providence pass on his own thirty- yard line, and carried it back sixty yards before he was downed. The Freshmen followed this run by a pass from Guinea to Jimmy Cahill, which gained seven yards. Then Guinea crashed through the line to register the only points of the contest. Next came the B. U. Frosh, the game being staged at Riverside. As the Varsity was in Baltimore, the class of ' 38 kept Boston College in the sportlight by running rough-shod over the highly-touted B. U. yearlings to the tune of 26-0. This was expected to be a close struggle, because of the New Deal in athletics at the downtown institution. However, the defence of the Terriers was unable to cope with the smooth attack of the Eaglets. Every man on the B. C. squad saw service in the fray. The touchdowns were scored by Tom Guinea, Walt Bryan, and Kissel, Guinea being responsible for two of them. Bud Farwell, at quarterback, showed his ability as a running back by breaking loose several times for substan- tial gains for the Eaglets, thus giving the Freshmen a four-man running attack. Then the Frosh journeyed to Danvers, where the powerful St. John ' s Prep team awaited them. In this game they suffered their first defeat, bowing to the Prep-men 18-13. The Preppers piled up an early lead, scoring twice. But then our boys strengthened, and did some scoring on their own account. With Le Piesha on the receiving end of a long pass from DiNatale, Boston chalked up its first six points. Early in the final stanza St. John ' s tallied again. The Freshmen made another bid, and Jimmy Cahill, the Eaglets left end scored after a fifty-five yard run with an intercepted pass. Le Piesha added the point. Although our boys could not score again, they had one consolation, that they had in Jimmy Cahill another poten- tial great to add to B. C. ' s long list of stellar wingmen. The final contest of the class of ' 38 was at Worcester, where they engaged in battle with the sturdy young Crusaders of Holy Cross. This rivalry is traditional, and is surpassed only by that of the Varsity teams. Hop Riopel, coach of the Purple yearlings, had a strong team to pit against our Freshmen. The records of Eaglets and the Purple ' 38 were equal, but when the final whistle was blown on that November 10, the Holy Cross men had added another victory, with our men the victims, 7 to 0. Bart Bartolomeo, of the Cross, caught a punt early in the game, and ran it from the Maroon and Gold forty-five, through the entire Boston team, to chalk up the only score. Brucato converted the extra point. With the exception of the scoring play, the teams were evenly matched, and both failed to make the most of the numerous breaks which were presented. The feature was the kicking of Bartolomeo, who kept the Eaglets in their own territory with long punts. He defeated the B. C. men almost single-handed, and the credit for the win should go to him. His skill in punting is shown by the statistics, which will tell us that he put no less than eight punts out of bounds within fifteen yards of the B. C. goal. The season of 1934 was not a great one, as far as the Freshmen were concerned. It was of value to Boston College, however, because it gave us a chance to look over the men who were to be a part of the team for the next three years. 206 Top: Bresnahan, Cash, Anderson, Duffy, Curran (Capt.), Galligan, Fitzsimons (Mgr.)

STATEMENT OF COACH Once again Boston College bids fair to be in the fore when the annual collegiate laurels are being distributed. This year the schedule is of the finest, with most of the old rivals returning. Credit for compiling this schedule must go to Father Rector, Father Sullivan, and Mr. Curley, who have tried to secure opponents of the highest calibre. Of course many stars have been lost by graduation. It will be hard to find men who can successfully take the places of Kittridge, Boehner, Freitas, Brennan, and Kelley, of last year ' s team. However, we have Bob Curran and Dave Concannon, O ' Flaherty, Pagliuca, Ready, Mahoney, Duffy, Galligan, Marso and Callahan to work with, and from this aggregation, plus the Freshmen coming up, we have every chance to mold another good ball club. The Seniors on the team promise to play a large part in its fortunes. If they continue in the same form as they have for the last two years, it will be a banner year. And so, from the day we first take the field against the Boston Red Sox until the final series, in which we will once more defeat Holy Cross, we hope that the pennant of Boston College will not be lowered by defeat. Yours for Boston, Frank McCrehan Coach of Baseball sT UiVLW nftw FRANK MCCREHAN Coach DAVID CONCANNON Co-Captain THE SEASON Many veterans of the stellar team of last year returned to seek berths on the ' 35 baseball club and found the competition against the ex-Frosh players and the rookies very keen. Practice sessions began at the Commonwealth Armory on Saturday, March 23, and continued there for two weeks whie the diamond at the Heights was being resurfaced. Only after the greatest care had been exercised was the cut made, in order that the best players would be retained for the difficult season that was ahead. The twenty-seven game schedule included such outstanding nines as the Boston Red Sox, Fordham University, Villanova, New York U., St. John ' s of Brooklyn, Rutgers, Dartmouth and Holy Cross. The entire pitching staff of 1934 returned with the exception of Harry Lane, lanky curve-ball artist who was forced to leave college because of illness. Bob Duffy, the husky Waltham portsider continued his great work on the mound and climaxed his brilliant cdrzzr at the Heights with some superb twirling, and also helped with his timely hitting. Charhe Callahan, a right handed twirler of no mean ability, added a number of victories to the Eagle string with his speed ball pitching, besides sharing the duties of the outfield and doing noble work with the willow. The Maroon and Gold nine was very fortunate to possess several of those rarities among ball players, pitchers who could also bat well. Ted Galligan and Lefty Marso, the remaining veteran hurlers showed a marked improvement over last season and were great assets for the Boston Team. Bob Cash and Jack Gleason, Sophomores, and Ray Prendergast of the class of ' 35, rounded out an excellent pitching staff. The catching berth was well cared for by Charlie Fallon, a brilliant backstop who starred on last year s Yearling outfit, and Ray Funchion, a hard hitting Senior. Bob Curran, who was elected Co-Captain with his pal, Dave Concannon, performed around the initial sack. Bob saved several games with his great fielding and his heavy slugging in the cleanup position won many more. His partner, Camera-eye Concannon, cavorted at second base. Dave was a good batter and a masterful fielder so that he made his presence felt in the Eagle lineup. Pete O ' Flaherty, a veteran, controlled the shortstop position. Tiny Tim Ready, an outstanding catcher in ' 34, who was feared by enemy pitchers whenever he stepped up to the plate, completed an ace-high infield. The club was very strong in reserves for infield duty with Frank Maguire, George Mahoney, Jim Jobin, Tom Morris, George Maiocca and Everett Gallant doing fine work. Jerry the Pag Pagliuca performed like the maestro of old out in the garden. His specialty at the plate was securing hits for extra bases, and he gave visiting outfielders plenty of exercise. Atilio Ferdenzi, the Ashland youth of football fame, John Terry, a fleet footed ball-hawk, and Jack Burgess, a sophomore, all saw plenty of service in the outfield. Bill Harrington, a sure-handed fielder and a good sticker, and Ed Anderson, a hard working ball player who did well both at bat and in the field, solved Coach Frank McCrehan ' s outfield problem. The Class of ' 35 closed its athletic career with a fine record and left after them a trail of victories and fine examples of true sportsmanship. As we go to press, the Eagle team has had seven victories and two defeats: Northeastern 5-7; Bates 9-2; Maine 19-8; Lowell Textile 10-5; Springfield 9-5; Harvard Grads 14-0; B. U. 12-1;Fordham 7-10; B. U. 6-4.

Bob Duffy, Charlie Callahan, Ray Prendergast, and Mike Gerson were picked to do the twirling, while the receiving department was strongly fortified with Randy Wise, Ed Skrickus, Joe Picard, and John Fortunato. At the initial scak was Bob Curran, understudied by Frank Maguire. Dave Concannon cavorted around second base, while Red Welch and Roger Kirvan held down the other infield posts. Bill hHarrington, Frank Liddell, Pete McCauley, Ed Anderson, and Roger Egan roamed the outfield. The Eaglets swept through the nines of Tufts ' 35 and Wentworth Academy, and then buried Andover 20-6 in a hectic game. Continuing their winning streak, they tamed the B. U. Terrier pup 1 3 to 7 and over- whelmed Boston Latin. The men of ' 35 were finally stopped by a strong St. John ' s Prep nine 7-6. With Bob Curran starring, B. C. defeated St. Anselm ' s 10-8. Rain washed out the important game with the Crusader yearlings in the third inning while the Maroon and Gold contingent was leading 1-0. The Eaglets concluded a successful season at Exeter after tasting defeat at the hands of Bucksport Seminary by the margin of a lone run. SOPHOMORE When April of 1933 rolled around, the Class of ' 35 entered stiff varisty competition under Coach Frank McCrehan. A strong team opened its season against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, losing 7-2. Rain caused the postponement of the Father ' s Day game with Fordham and the next game with Vermont. Bates, B. U., and the B. C. Alumni fell before the heavy artillery of the Eagles. Bob Duffy, in his first varsity start, held William and Mary to four hits but loose fielding gave the visitors two all important runs. Buddy Roy fanned eleven FHilltoppers to beat Georgetown 7-0. B. U. and Middlebury proved easy victims before Providence eked out a 4-3 win. With Bob Duffy leading on the mound at at bat, the Eagles avenged an early season setback by the F-larvard Grads. Traveling to f lew York in May, our boys defeated New York U. and then lost close games to Fordham and Manhattan. Al Blanche, stellar Providence twirler, baffled the Eagles, defeating them 4 to 0. On Memorial Day, superb pitching by Joe Mulligan aided by loose fielding by the Bostonians, caused the Eagles ' downfall 15 to 1. f-lowever the wearers of the Maroon and Gold came back to win the next two games and the series. In the tenth inning of the second game, Dave Concannon brought a 6-5 victory with a smashing triple. In the final encounter at Worcester, the Eagles buried the foe by a 17 to 8 score. JUNIOR Cold March winds greatly retarded the practice of the ' 34 Eagle aggregation. Boston won its opener with Northeastern and, with Charlie Marso making his debut, the Eagles downed the Rams 8-7. Harvard Cjrads and B. U. were defeated before the Alumni, with Coach Frank McCrehan twirling, shutout the varsity 3-0. Coming back, B. C defeated Williams, Harvard Grads, Middlebury, and Providence in that order. On their New York trip the Eagles downed a K. of C. team at New Haven 6 to 1 . The St. John ' s and Fordham games were rained out and the Heights team returned home to suffer its first defeat by a college team at the hands of the Crusaders on Memorial Day by 8-3. B. U., Providence, and New Hamp- shire fell again, before the Heightsmen lost to the Cross by 9-8 when Moriarity connected for a home run. At the conclusion of a highly successful season, the Maroon and Gold letter men elected Bob Curran and Dave Concannon as Co-Captains for 1935. f Ted Galiigan, Pitcher gOSTJji,, Charles Marso, Pitcher Back: Hdyward, Costello, Durst, Burrill, Keough, Butters, Tadio, Fleet, O ' Brien, larrabino Middle: Madden, Burke, Mines, Downey, McKee, Malone, Oleary, Bowler, Zaitz, Shaughnessey, Delear Front: Ryder (Coach), Kickham, Connors, Ohrenberger, Cowhig, Power, Joyce (Capt.), Good, Gallagher, Eaton, Murphy, Kennedy, Quinn (Mgr.)

JACK RYDER SAYS:— In saying farewell to the Senior Class members of the Boston College track and field team there comes a feeling of sadness because our relations have been so pleasant, so harmonious. Captain John Joyce and Manager Robert Ouinn cooperated and worked so assiduously that success had to be. They radiated cheerfulness and faithfulness and these qualities permeated the entire team. In a recent dual meet at Orono, Maine, with the University of Maine, twenty-four athletes represented Boston College. Ten of these were members of the Class of 1935. So that 1935, upon graduation, will leave quite a depletion in the ranks. This is written before the outdoor spring dual and inter- collegiate meets which precludes comment upon what might be praiseworthy performances. Memory of the physical performances for the past four years of the 1935 track and field men will be mostly forgotten but the memory of friendships, conversations, joshing, et cetera will remain for life. Bon voyage. JOHN E. JOYCE Captain JOHN A. RYDER Coach THE SEASON PERSONALS The Intercldss Meet opened the track season of ' 34-35. While the Juniors swept through to victory, the Frosh took second, with the boys of ' 35 close behind. Captain Jugger Joyce and Gordon Connor each scored twice, as did Dave Couhig and Mike Murphy. The other Senior points were picked up by Frank Eaton, Elmer Rynne, Steve Kennedy, and Frank Galvin. Individual high scoring honors went to Tom McFarland, promising Yearling runner, who earned seventeen points for ' 38. This meet finished work on the cinders, v ith the squad resting before a strenuous indoor season. Two Eagle relay teams ran in the K. of C. games at the Boston Garden. The varsity mile quartet, com- posed of Captain Joyce, Bill Malone, Frank Eaton, and Jim O ' Leary, got a second trailing N. V. U., while the two mile four followed the University of Main e. In the Millrose games at Madison Square Garden, our two mile relay of John Downey, John Power, Ben h ines, and Don McKee were nosed out in a blanket finish by Columbia and North Carolina. The long awaited dual of the B. C.-hHoly Cross relays was unfortunately spoiled by the Purple lead-off man ' s error, which put B. C. out of the race. The two mile team once again followed the Univ. of Maine across the finish line. In the University Club meet the one mile relay ran second to M. I. T. while, at the I. C. 4 A. games at N. Y., the two milers followed Manhattan in a fast race. Our tracksters were defeated by the University of Maine at Orono after a series of record breaking performances. Captain Joyce smashed the 300 yard record and equalled the 70 yard dash mark. Dimmy Zaitz shattered the shotput figures and copped first in the discus. Ben FHines ran a record setting mile in 4.24 2 5 while Dave Couhig got second place in the shotput. Gordon Connor scored second in the high jump and third in the pole vault. The fast N. Y. U. two milers downed our Eagles in the K. of C. games at the N. Y. Garden. The same evening, at the N. E. A. A. U. Championships at Providence, our mile quartet of Good, Burke, Eaton, and O ' Leary took first. Frank Eaton also won third place in the 600. After a short vacation, the Rydermen continued work on the cinders before the out- door season. Joyce JUGGER JOYCE A standout among the dashmen in his Junior year, Jugger showed his heels to the field in the 100 and 200. Elected captain of the team in Senior, he continued to show his versatility by becoming a relay star. FRANK EATON The half mile was Frank ' s forte. He practiced faithfully and developed into a valuable man in the relay as well as the half mile. GORDON CONNOR hiigh jumping was an art with this lad. FHe even gave a lesson in leaping to the cadets at West Point. FRANK O ' LOUGHLIN Effortless though running seemed with Frank, we know that it takes plenty of untiring effort to develop the smooth free-wheeling style he showed. FRANK COWHIG The biggest man on the squad and one of the best in the field events. Frank could toss the hammer or the discus with equal abandon, thereby garnering many a point for the Eagle. MIKE MURPHY Rain or shine, Mike was always practicing with his be- loved hammer. His constant application to practice made a very good hammer man out of him. WILLIAM GALLAGHER Bill specialized in the 50 yard dash and faithful practice made him a valuable trackster and point get ter. FRANK GOOD A very fast start proved a splendid asset to Frank as a dashman and in the broad jump. STEVE KENNEDY Steven often proved his agility by pole vaulting to high altitudes. DAVE COUHIG His ability to scale the discus and heave the shot added many digits to the Eagle score. HENRY OHRENBERGER He exhibited his great strength by giving the hammer many long rides. ELMER RYNNE The pole vault was Elmer ' s favorite event and he was a sure point getter in any meet. BEN MOYNAHAN His forward passing technique enabled Ben to toss the javelin for great distances. ROBERT OUINN Genial, efficient, and conscientious — the ideal manager. Always anxious to help the tracksters. Felt amply rewarded by the New York trips. Kennedy HOCKEY Murphy, Liddell (Captain), Ready, Burgess, Moo re, Walsh STATEMENT OF COACH Victories over some of the most powerful college teams in the country marked the 1935 hockey club as the strongest that has represented the hieights in recent years. The success of the team was due in no small part to the Class of ' 35. Captain Frank Liddell and ex-Captain Ray Funchion assisted the team greatly with their thrilling dashes down the ice, many of which culminated with the puck resting in the enemy cage. Randy Wise checked many offensive drives and prevented them from getting shots at ' Tiny Tim ' Ready in the Boston net. Among the other Seniors who played well were Ralph Ambrose, Jim Ahem, and h ank Groden. As these boys graduate, they leave places that will be hard to fill. Continuing to play the game in life as they did on the hockey squad, success is bound to come their way.

LIDDELL Captain THE SEASON After a ten year lapse, hockey came back to its rightful place in Boston College Athletics this year when the great winter game was recognized as a major sport by the Athletic Association. Under the coaching of Snooks ' Kelly th ere emerged a team worthy to wear the Maroon and Gold. The debut of the Eagles on the ice saw him soar over Northeastern by a 5 to 4 count. Ray Funchion flipped in the first two goals of the evening. Jack Burgess and Joe Walsh hammered the score up to 4 all. The deciding marker car- omed off a hlusky skate. The Brown Bear was humbled 4 to 2 in the wildest and roughest game of the season. Brown drew first blood on a freak shot. Burgess and Moore put B. C. ahead and a great passing game enabled Funchion and Moore to score the final goals. The Green Indians of Dartmouth were the next victims, succumbing 3 to 2. The visitors scored twice in the second period before the Eagles began to click. Walsh cut down the lead and Funchion laced in a backhander to knot the tally. Joe Walsh flipped in the winning marker in 3 ' 50 overtime. Northeastern was defeated for the second time by one point, this time 3-2. Jocko Conlin took a Funchion pass for the first score and Kiddo Liddell cashed in on a solo dash. Tom Sharkey whacked in the deciding digit in the second stanza. The FHeightsmen tore into the Boston University sextet and won their fifth straight, 2- ' !. Tim Ready, great at all times, had his best night making 39 saves. After Jocko Conlin overcame the Terrier ' s lead, Pete Murphy stole at the blue line, eluded the defense and whizzed in the winning goal. Hopes for an undefeated season were blasted when the Eagle flew to New Jersey and was clawed into sub- mission 6-1 by the Princeton Tiger. Boston was never in the game after the first period. Ray Funchion assisted by Conlin and McDermott saved us from a shutout. The B. U. Terriers avenged their early season defeat by winning 5-1 in a return engagement. The visitors ' dyna- mite line of Rowe, Smith and Lax proved too much for the disheartened Eagles. The result is partly accounted for by a schedule which called for only one game in the previous month. Displaying a much improved passing game the Maroon and Gold pucksters climbed back on the victory by winning a hard, fast game by a 7 to 5 margin over St. Anselm ' s six. An early three goal lead gave Brown a 5 to 4 win in their return tilt. Captain Liddell had a great night for Boston with two goals and an assist. Pete Murphy scored the others. Colgate was the last opponent and the last victim for the successful Heightsmen. Wise, Walsh and Burgess stopped nearly every Raider attack while Burgess, Funchion and Liddell were scoring 4 goals to Colgate ' s 2, Liddell scoring twice. Ready Liddell Funchion HOCKEY RETROSPECT The struggle to bring hockey back to the hieights was a long and animated one. Two of our own boys, Frank Liddell and Ray Funchion, led the crusade for the ice sport and, through their individual efforts, a team was organized which furnished us with many thrills in our Sophomore year. They aroused the interest of other hockey lovers and, before long, an Eagle team glided over the Arena ice surface with the firm purpose of securing a little of the glory that past Eagle teams had always reaped. The boys were fortunate indeed in obtaining the shrewd Snooks Kelly as coach. Such sacrifice was not to go unrewarded, for the story of that team is one of great success. If we add up the record of wins and losses, the seasons might not be termed perfect, but if we add up the total spirit shown by players, coaches, and students, we have a record which can justly be admired by all Boston College sport followers. It was the necessary groundwork, laid only after great effort that future Eagle teams might catch the spirit of the enterprise. The boys thought it fitting to celebrate the return of hockey with a victory and then proceeded to do exactly that in the first game. The team went right to work and earned an 8 to 6 win over Northeastern. Ray Funchion helped things along a bit by flipping in four goals. Next the Tech team bowed under a 2 to 1 score. Randy Wise proving an able substitute for Funchion, who had been injured. The third game brought a temporary end to the Victory string with Johnny Lax leading B. U. to a 5 to 1 victory before a crowd of 4000 at the Arena. The pucksters invaded Rhode Island to meet the Brown Bear and played 80 minutes of gruelling hockey which ended in a three-all tie. Not content with ties, the team tore into the Alumni aggregation, and won 7 to 4. In the final game we again bowed to B. U., this time by a 7 to 2 score. The second year of hockey at Boston College produced plenty of close and exciting games but only two victories. The first game was lost 6 to 3 to the Union Boat Club. The second and third games were lost to the Berry hlockey Club and Brown, each by the score of 3 to 2. The Brown game will be re- membered by all who saw it as a real heartbreaker. B. C. had everything except victory that night. En- couraged by their great playing at Providence, our icemen turned back St. Anselm ' s 7 to 4. The next game was a wierd one. With Northeastern leading 4 to 0, the Eagle pucksters opened up and poured rubber into the Huskies ' net until the game ended in a 5 to 5 tie. The B. U. game was very close despite the 6 to 3 score by which we lost. The regular playing time ended with the score 3 all. In the overtime B. U. slapped home three goals after Ray Funchion, brilliant defence man, had been rendered hors de combat. Frank Liddell led in this game, covering so much territory that the B. U. men thought that the audience had come onto the ice. The final ice struggle was a 3 to 1 win over the hockey team representing Nichols Junior College. Although we won only two games, the players played so well that their efforts were rewarded by recognition of hockey as a major sport this year by the A. A. Their pioneering work blazed the way to a new era in Boston College hHockey — laid the foundations for a 1935 hockey club that caused pleasant reminiscences by old grads. PERSONALS FRANK LIDDELL, Captain For three years Frank was the aggressive, back-checking left winger of the Eagles. FHis strong defensive play was outstripped only by his ability to pass in combination with the dynamite line of Moore, Murphy and himself. Frank was awarded the captaincy in his Senior year, and displayed a spirit which inspired his mates to make the 1935 edition the most successful Eagle team of recent years. F is play in the Dartmouth game where he was carried from the ice, only to return a few minutes later and lead his six to victory, is something that will be long remembered. RAY FUNCHION When Ray would circle the net, gain momentum, and cut down into center ice with blazing speed, the Arena crowd would rise and the opposing team would view the Eddie Shore dash as an approaching tornado. The fact that Ray was high scorer in his three years of varsity play is evidence that many of these rushes met with fruition. Ray was the most spectacular of the Eagle forwards, and, like Frank Liddell, was a fighter to the final bell. HANK GRODEN Hank learned his hockey on the ponds of North Cambridge where, on your fifth birthday, you received a hockey stick and a pair of skates. This training helped Hank for he proved to be a capable substitute for three years. We are all aware that truly strong teams are impossible without good reserves. No member of the Eagle squad fought harder to make his team successful than Hank. RALPH AMBROSE Every hockey coach must call upon numerous reserves in the course of a strenuous game. Ralph was one of those aces in the hole who received the nod from Snooks Kelly when the regulars were worn out from overplay. Ralph was a rough and ready defense man who learned his tricks in the open air school of Winchester. He played little but he played exceedingly well. While Ralph was on the ice, the Coach had no worries concerning his defenceman ' s playing. RANDY WISE Randy is a member of the old school of hockey which claims that a body check is the most effective means of stopping an enemy attack. Consequently Randy hit them hard and often, much to the delight of the Arena crowd. His defensive play made him a bosom friend of the puck riddled Tim Ready. Randy played the kind of game that all true sport lovers admire.

The nibhck season kicked up its First sod on April 19, when the team, headed by Captain and Manager Chick Featherstone, journeyed southward and on the beautiful course of Furman University in Raleigh, North Carolina started a most auspicious season of play. The schedule of eighteen matches lined the Heights boys with the best swingers of collegiate ranks. Among the prominent teams which the Eagles faced were Temple, Dartmouth, Tufts, N. Y. U. and Holy Cross. Success fol- lowed success and when the Eagle four crossed clubs with the Crusaders in the final match, it marked the close of a most productive season. The highly favored Cross team, with the sparkling Willie Turnesa in its lineup, was given a battle all the way. Chick Featherstone headed the divot diggers in their play and, largely through his efforts, the golf team was able to make its extensive Southern trip. Not only did Chick show ability in making arrangements but on the various courses he displayed a dexterity of club swinging, much after the style of Francis Ouimet. His game was steady and his scores were surprisingly low. Next in line was Fred Moore who jumped from his hockey tights into golf knickers to bolster up the Eagle team. Fred ' s driver split the fairways with long shots which came to rest in the center of the velvet green. Paul McGrady became the putting champ of the knicker club. When he bent over the little white pill, carefully gauged his distance and tapped the pellet lightly, it was sure to take a drop. To mention individuals is folly, how- ever. Ed Furbush, Dan Hartigan, King Clancy, Pete Murphy, and Bill Cogan all excelled. The team itself was completely in the hands of the students and, though handicapped by the lack of money and practice facilities, they rose above all obstacles to give Boston College a record of which it may well be proud. w - CHARLES FEATHERSTONE Captain Rear: Corcoran, Mahoney, Droney, Ring, Buckley, Hern Front: Lydon, Ryan, Rynne (Captain), Liddell, McNiskin TENNIS Elmer M. Rynne . William McNiskin OFFICERS SCHEDULE Captain Manager Wake Forest William and Maty Virginia Military Institute North Carolina University University of Virginia Brown Boston University Tufts Providence Springfield Holy Cross The coming of Spring was marked by the initial turnout of the FHeights tennis team. The veteran Elmer Rynne called his racquet wielders together and stressed the importance of perfecting technique. Elmer, newly elected captain, appeared in rare condition, intent on capturing the inter- collegiate net crown. After a brief workout on the FHeights courts, the team, under the guidance of Manager Bill McNiskin, headed toward the warmer Southland and there met the stronger teams in the lower half of the Dixie belt. In rapid succession the Eagle net men swapped shots with William and Mary, North Carolina U., Virginia Military Institute, and the University of Virginia. Although the pace was fast, Elmer Rynne and his comrades reaped their share of victories, far surpassing the Eagle records of previous years. Returning from an extremely successful Southern trip, the boys took on the more skilled Eastern college teams. Brown, Boston University, Providence, and Tijfts experi- enced the clever shots of the Boston College players. In these matches, the playing of Frank Liddell, Joe Ryan, Dave Bailey, and Elmer the Great Rynne was particularly brilliant. The season came to a solemn close with the tra- ditional FHoly Cross match. When Elmer chose his strongest team to engage the Crusaders, it was a very difficult assign- ment for many had excelled in the season ' s play. Elmer Rynne was easily the number one man of the team. - s variety of backhand and forehand shots continually baffled the opposition. FHis remarkable change of pace in- variably returned Elmer victorious in all matches. Joe Corcoran was probably the steadiest player on the team. FHis smooth strokes and stamina were factors which lent confidence to the whole Eagle squad. Joe Riley was the speed champion of the FHeights courts. FHe seemed to cover the front court and base line at the same moment, driving terrific smashes into obscure and difficult points of recovery. The tennis squad was particularly fortunate in having the capable Frank Liddell in the ranks. Frank played many sports but was his best with a racquet in his hand. When Frank rose on his toes, raised his arm high, and then slashed a sizzling serve, it had ace stamped all over it. Captain Rynne and his associates deserve the highest commendation in making tennis the most successful of the minor sports. The departure of the Seniors will leave a gap that can only be filled by hands that will be exceptionally capable when another season arrives for the smashing court play to reign supreme. ack: Chamberlain, Ring, Feeney, Rooney, Crowley, Sheehan, Trudel Front: O ' Brien, Ryan, Lydon (Capt.), Sullivan, Liddeli FENCING OFFICERS James Lydon, ' 35 Captd SQUAD Cyril O ' Brien ' 35 Clement O ' Brien ' 35 Albert Rooney ' 35 J.

Only five veterans reported to the call for candidates and two of these were forced out of compe- tition by injuries. Many additional obstacles to a successful season were present — there was no serviceable equipment, proper facilities for practice sessions were non-existent, and, to climax these difficulties, illness robbed the tyros of instruction by their famous coach, John Von Roth und Sand, whose altruistic services to Eagle fencing squads can never be repaid. Undismayed by these setbacks. Captain Jim Lydon went to work to pave the way for the B. C. Fencing teams of the future, since it was obvious that a winning team could not be built this year. The first step was to secure a practice place. Given the use of a class room, the lads pushed back the chairs and worked assiduously on the gruelling ground- work required of fencing tyros. Since weapons were essential, steps were instituted to procure them. A raffle and Masquerade netted sufficient funds to equip the can- didates with foils, sabers, swords, masks and gloves, at no expense to the individual. The coaching was carried on mainly by Captain Lydon, who relayed to the neophytes the instructions mailed to him by the Coach. That interest in fencing has been aroused was evidenced by the number who weathered the arduous season. Forty student s are now able to acquit themselves honorably with at least one of the three fencing weapons. It has been a year of struggle and defeat, but it is only a lull before the storm of victory. It is a seed, and its fruit can be one of the best and largest college teams in the United States. The men who made this possible are gradu- ating with no victories on their shields, but they sre proud in the knowledge that their sacrifice makes possible the champions of future years.

Guard (Outdoor) April At Wakefield The Rifle Team has grown from a less important minor sport to one of very considerable rank in eastern inter- collegiate competition. Largely responsible for this was the totally unexpected increase in student interest. One hun- dred and twenty-five men answered the first call for pre- liminary practice at the Boston College range. Since the club was unprepared to handle so many eager aspirants, quick cuts were necessary, disappointing many whoshowed real ability. After several months of intensive practice the remaining squad of 30 or more men was weeded down to its final customary roll of 15. The aspiring sharpshooters drilled faithfully under the watchful eyes of Captain Charlie Hagan and made rapid strides as riflemen. The absence of heating facilities in the range necessitated the wearing of heavy coats, which made good shooting diffi- cult. In spite of this, many fine scores were turned into Range Officer Lally. This squad, handicapped by adverse shooting conditions, and self-coached, compared favor- ably with collegiate R. O. T. C. teams, coached by trained military officers. It successfully challenged professional teams from the National Guard and the regular Army. Firing against the best competition eastern colleges and professional teams had to offer, the squad tucked many a close-fought victor under its belt. The season was marked by the great increase in the number of telegraphic and shoulder-to-shoulder matches fired and won,- and by the outstanding prone shooting of Charlie Hagan. Several times in the season he achieved the difficult hole in one of rifle shooting ... a perfect score. Veterans ably seconding such shooting were: Francis McElroy, George Trudell, Walter Hamilton, John and Paul Lally, John Koumjian and Jack Sheehan. The team climaxed its indoor season with the defeat of the Troop F Team, National Guard State Regimental Cham- pions. This season the team extended its activities to include several outdoor matches at the Wakefield Ranges.

JOhHN PESTIER: A managing editor ' s position, in the vernacular, an editor ' s leaning post, was so ably carried out that we wonder how other year books were published without him.

O ' Brien, Editor HEIGHTS CELEBRATES FIFTEENTH YEAR In the course of the year, the Heights celebrated its fifteenth birthday as the official news organ of Boston College. From the time of its inception under Mr. John Ring, ' 20, up to the reign of Eddie O ' Brien in 1935, it has progressed from a mere tabulation of activities to a paper that is influential as regards college thought. Many changes in size and editorial policy have occurred, always for its betterment. Mr. Ring, in his brave gesture to give the College a representa- ti e newspaper, and his industrious followers, de- serve the highest commendation. The editing of a college paper involves numerous difficulties, both as regards the editorial and business ends. Receiving no remuneration for their efforts, only their loyalty to their Alma Mater, bound them into a distinctive organization. . Iways it was the duty of the Heights to present to the college and the e.vtra-coUege world the activities and the very es- sence of the Alma Mater in its true supreme light. This the Heights has always succeeded in doing, yet, withal, in a true journalistic fashion and with an in- teresting technique. HEIGHTS ' EDITORS CLIMAX YEAR Power Succeeds to Editor ' s Position Following the completion of the term of Eddie O ' Brien, the usual elections were held in the Heights o ffice. By a unanimous vote of board and staff, Paul V. Power was chosen to fill the en ' iable post of director of the Heights. Paul spent his two years as a member of the school paper in the roles of news, feature, and editorial writing. He assisted the board in the course of the year, treating matters of government in the editorial colunms, besides writing special new features in an expert manner. Probably his training on the Slylua — the rival monthly publication, accounted for his success on the Heights. Ever since his matricu- lation here from B. C. High, he has written on the drama, politics, and art in the famous College maga- zine. His assistants that were elected with him were John Paget in the position of Managing Editor. In the course of the year, The Saga of Footloose Olaf, a humorous column, flowed from his pen. Besides this, he found his work in the editorial columns on numerous occasions. Bill Collins, also an editorial writer and Exchange Editor for the past year as- sumes Mr. Fleming ' s post. Louis Mercier as News Editor and Charfie larreibino as Sports Editor, com- plete the staff that will write the College news for ' 35 and ' 36. Fr. R. P. SuUivau, S. J. Is the Moderator Mr. Muldoon, S. J., Business Head For the past two years, the Heights has had as its moderator, Fr. R. Paul SulUvan, S. J., Professor of English at the College. His inevitable wilfingness to assist and guide a college paper through its journal- istic storms, has made him one of the most popular moderators that the Heights have had since its in- ception many years ago. He consistently gave his efforts and talents to assisting the editors in their arduous duties. The continued development of the Heights during his regime is directly attributed to his ability and sincere efforts to bring to Boston College a paper worthy of its ideals. The difficult task of Business Moderator was in the capable hands of Mr. Muldoon, S.J., in his first year as business director. He succeeded Mr. Kennealy, S.J., who is Moderator of Dramatics. O ' Brien Has Fine Season Shortly before the Easter vacation, Edward O ' Brien completed his year as editor of the College newspaper. During the course of the two semesters, the Heights reached a new mark for success in the art and finesse of newspaper editing. His Tabloid was consistently an interesting account of college men and little known facts about them. His editor- ials at various intervals struck a sharp note in concise but clear thought. The whole paper reflected a per- fection that was in the Editor himself in his ability to write accurately and sincerely. The Heights during the past year was blessed with men on its .staff and board who always had the best interests of their Alma Mater at heart. Never did anything unworthy of her creep into editorial, news or feature writeups. The editorials and the interesting column, Cakes and Ale — a weekly dis- cussion on timely topics, were perfumed with a mas- tery of diction and expression by Steven Fleming. The uniform and agreeable makeup was deftly carried out by Joe Donovan. Henry Murphy, a pre-med stu- dent, shared his onerous laboratory duties with collecting news copy for the weekly publication. Bill Kean, as sports editor, exhibited a new and in- teresting jargon. Bill GibUn, business manager, com- pleted his year leaving the paper in the best of finan- cial condition.

I)ul in all kinds of religi- ous, inlelloctual and business life in this country today is a terrifying lack of the high impulse towards Justice and Benevolence among the men who design and execute the life we have in common. Not for long can our social structure endure in their hands, who exploit its advantages for their own uses, who would gladly see it perish tomorrow if today it keep Ihem fat and sleek. Man cannot go on being what he has been. if. for the sake of private wants, he starves himself as a social being. What is true of national institutions of the United .States is so of Boston College student acti% ities. They need the control of the reasonably unselfish among us. if they are to carry on. Hence it is ira- p jrtant for .Vinerican society that we conduct our alfairs here well. As we behave at Boston College, so we may be calculated to serve the state when it falls into our collective hands. Thus it behooves us to run all our functions — the Heights, the Stylus, class politics and the Debating Societies — nobly and well. The world needs men; not those shallow hagglers at the marketplace of life whose ethos is to do to their neighbors as they would do to them if they got the chance; not those weak hirelings whose power- lust compels them to treat office and position as things to be exploited for personal benefit; nor yet those depraved cadets who seduce politics to become till ' systematic organization of hatred. It needs men who will hold public and social service sacred, to be honorably discharged. And so does Boston College.

William H. Giblin, Business Manager ALUMNI NOTES Most of us have ' wondered jusl what happens to editors when they have left the confines of their offices, whether it is the noisy and spasmodic hubbub of the Heights, the quiet efficiency of the Stylus sanctum or the continual sphere of activity and epithets and hair pulling in the penthouse of the Sub Turri. Probably during the course of their college career they ha e astonished the world, both literary and college, with their editorials or Iheir dissertations which exhibited a cogency and clarity of expression. Just how many, we have often wondered, have en- tered the field of writing or journalism for which art they were so clearly cut out when members of the student body. This year, from all the editors — Eddie O ' Brien of the Heights, Grover Cronin of the Stylus and Ray Belliveau of the Sub Turri, only (irover knows what is in store for him. Oxford will receive his calling. O ' Brien and Belliveau face the world undecided but capable. For the editors of the past three years, we have this interesting account of Iheir life after leaving B.

At all events it can be inscribed that this year the Stylus reflected a spirit of enthusiasm, vitality, and a holy horror of falling into the bog of dullness. Philosophical and literary criticism, short stories, poems, light essays, and book reviews made up the varied and balanced contents of the magazine. Its highly indi- vidual and spasmodic publication dates were preserved (none of this mechanistic regularity for the Stylus!). Mr. Grover J. Cronin, Jr., deserves the congratulations of his class for his managerial and literary ability — one of his finest contributions being his translations of the Odes of hlorace. Because of pressure brought to bear on him by various other duties, last year ' s editor, Mr. Steven Fleming, was not able to contribute as regularly as has been his wont. However, his offerings, though few, were none the less valuable. Contributing this year for the first time, Mr. Paul Moynahan ' s essays were of such quality as to provoke the interest of, many in his own predilections. Mr. Moynahan possessed a stylistic elegance which marked him an artist as well as thinker. The efforts of Mr. FHenry Foley and Mr. John Mclver merit our gratitude for their excellent poems and short stories. We are especially indebted to Mr. Louis Mercier for his distinguished short stories, written in a style that has become well known during his years at the FHeights. Mr. Paul Power, the controversionalist of the staff, proved versatile and ingenious. Mr. Mark Dalton was an infrequent but prized contributor, his monograph on the Smart Set being especially well received. Mr. Harold Carr was the sole representative of Sophomore to contribute to the Stylus but his effort, a translation of a Strabo sonnet marked him as a scholar and artist of parts. Mr. Joseph McCarthy of Freshman deserves the gratitude of the entire school for, to the Humoresque Department, he brought a sense of comedy, quiet, subtle, the like of which has not been seen in many years. The Business Department, headed by Mr. John Downey and Mr. Richard Kelly, efficiently handled the financial burdens and directed the work of circulation of each issue. Undoubtedly, its coup was the acquisition of an antique easy chair which was not a rare specimen but rather the rarest. All who have beheld it confess it to be absolutely unique. The management of Domestic Policy was in the capable hands of Messrs. John Galvin and Austin Brewin. In addition, they served as Faculty Manager and Coach for the undefeated Stylus football eleven which won the championship of the College. Finally, recognition and thanks are due to Father John A. O ' Brien, S.J., who, as Moderator, bore with remarkable tolerance the antics of the whole Stylus group. Also, thanks are also due to Mr. Charles Reardon, S.J., who, unquestionably, consoled Father O ' Brien in his darkest hours.

Jerome Sulhvan ° ' ' Rich in traditions, lavish in blessings, the Fulton Debating Society continues its caracoling career Ideas clash upon ideas, flung forth by Boston College ' s aspirant orators with all the verve and zest and joy-in-combat which marked the rapier-play of swashbuckling cavaliers. Ever has controversy gladdened the heart of man, and never has Fulton swerved from its intention of guiding youth in the principles ot rhetoric and intelligent argumentation. In the echoing hall of Fulton, Logic is enthroned as queen, with wit as her hand maiden. World problems weigh but lightly on the shoulders of stalwart Fultoniaris, but greater appreciation of the significance and scope of these questions, greater perception of the philosophical principles which underlie these questions will be realized in years to come. The ability to discuss intelligently and interest- ingly serious problems, be they national or international, civil or religious, is the priceless heritage ot Fultonians. The chief tenet of this learned organization is that, first of all comes education, and then those other pusuits which tend to emphasize its value. Continuing its usual procedure and maintaining its record as a prominent debating organization, lecture and intercollegiate debates covering extensive territory were held. Many parts ot Boston and the neigh- boring towns listened to the Fultonians display their argumentative powers in thronged halls. In the collegiate sphere, Maine, Dartmouth, Providence, Brown, Rutgers, and others were engaged and, as usual, the Fulton upheld the glorious banner that characterizes victory. The majority of lecture debates discussed the right and wrong of Communism, probably the most vital subject to the world today, tvery topic of diplomatic and political fields was analyzed by these amateur speakers-with an ability that many times superceded professionals. In the Prize Debate, held on March 24, Grover J. Cronin, Alber J. Rooney, Robert B. Adams, Henry G. Beauregard, Lawrence J. Riley, Mark Dalton spoke on the policy of economic nationalism as applicable to the United States. After a bril iant discussion by these men, selected as the best out of many, Henry Beauregard upset precedent by taking the famous Koberts Prize, the Rrst time in many years that a Junior won the coveted award. 225 o o N INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATES Nov. 28, 1934 Arlinaton Women ' s Club Resolved: That the Federal Government should aid education by means of annual grants to public elementary and secondary schools.

Censor Frederick P. Carmody President Vice-President SecretaV Treasurer . Censor The Marquette Debating Society, composed of Freshmen and Sophomores, has for its purpose greater perfection in the forensic art. Eloquence, diction, and quick-thinking developed in this group is respons- ible for much of the success of the Fulton. The weekly debates held in the Marquette and the open forum that followed, gave the students opportunities to put into practice the fundamentals of rhetoric and logic, acquired in the classroom. Besides, priceless experience is gained in public speaking in lecture and intercollegiate debates. The brilliance of the Marquette can greatly be attributed to the tutoring of Mr. Cahill, S.J., whose guidance made success in 1934-35 inevitable. Some of the highlights of the first semester were: the victorious debate with Brown University on the question of the socialization of medicine. Their second victory was won at FHoly Cross on December 10th, debating the question — Resolved: That the United States should nationalize the arms and munitions industry. Representing the Marquette were Edward A. Thompson, Paul Shultz, and Robert Power. The next public discussion, on the question of the conservation of the natural resources of oil, was with Keene Normal School, John Keary, John Coughlin, and Robert Sennott representing the Marquette. Following this, on February 21st, the Marquette debated against Fordham on the socialization of medicine. Those representing Boston College were John F. Donelan, James Maloney, and Daniel Hannigan. Un- fortunately, the Marquette tasted its first defeat of the season, coming out on the short end of a 2-1 decision. The second semester was even more eventful than the first. In quick succession both M. I. T. and B. U. were debated on the question — Resolved: That motion pictures are detrimental to civilization. Those debating were Francis Sexton, William O ' Connell, and Kevin Sullivan. At Fordham on April 12th, the Marquette spoke on the munitions question with Francis Sullivan, Richard Stanton, and John Donelan bearing the Boston College colors. Following this debate, the members of the Marquette journeyed to Washington to discuss the same question with Georgetown. On April 16, the society debated Nichols Junior College and, on April 28, the Marquette lectured in Roslindale on Economic Nationalism with Leo Coveney, Robert Brennan, and John Keary speaking. Before the entire classes of 1937 and 1938, the Freshman-Sophomore Society presented a debate on Federal aid to education,- the ' 38 team, composed of Robert Power and William Finan, meeting Albert Sullivan and John Donelan of Sophomore. To climax the year came the famous Prize Debate, the winner of which receives the Gargan Gold Medal, presented by Mrs. FHelena Gargan in memory of her husband. Those taking part in this debate on the natural resources of oil were Angelo Di Mattia, Richard Stanton, Richard Kelly, John Donelan, Francis Sullivan, and Francis Murphy. The winner of the medal was John Donelan of the class of 1937. Thus these forensic fledglings finished a season with a complete program of debates that even surpassed the remarkable record made by the Society in previous years. 227 o o o Broderick, Driscoll, Herlihy (Pres.); Belliveau, Burke DRAMATIC SOCIETY OFFICERS Walter F. Herlihy, ' 35 President Raymond L. Belliveau, ' 35 Vice-President Stanley J. Driscoll, ' 36 Secretary John R. Broderick, ' 36 Business Manaser Francis J. Burke, ' 36 Stage Manager Probably there is no art that allows man a greater relaxation and culture than the drama. It is a mirror held up to nature and reflecting its idiosyncracies, foibles, successes and failures in the most perfect way. To partake in these plays — to live the part of people who are perfect strangers to us — to learn an ease and lucidity of expression — to strengthen the powers of the imagination and thought — all these are benefits accruing to members of a dramatic club. And this our dramatic society has succeeded in doing. Romantic drama occupied the attention of the dramatic club in Freshman. First came Beau Brummel with Ed hierlihy in the lead and including members of ' 35 — Steven Fleming, Cyril and Clement O Brien. Following this highly interesting picture of the foppish, nonchalant gentlemen of other countries, Shake- speare ' s Othello was presented. FHerlihy assumed the role of the brusque Moor and opposing him in the role of lago, the deceitful villain, was the clever character artist, Frank Mulligan. Again in major roles, ' 35 helped the high standards of the club with the O ' Briens, Jack h ealy and Ray Belliveau. Sophomore left us with a distinct pleasure and loss. The former consisted in the production of Captain Applejack and the latter — the lack of a Spring piece and the departure of Mr. Bonn, S.J. In this highly imaginative vehicle of pirates, treasures, continental thieves and erratic characters, Frank Mulligan, John F andrahan, Ed Merrick, Louis Mercier, Charlie Daly, and Ray Belliveau brought out the accidental variances with a finesse that deserved commendation. Once in a Lifetime was probably the first real and most successful venture into modern comedy that was undertaken by the dramatic society since its beginning. It was the hilarious adventures of three buddies into the intricacies of FHollywood prosperity. Walter h erlihy as Matt, Ray Belliveau as Jerry, and Frank Brow in the comedian role of George. Jerry Weismann, as the Jewish magnate, and Stan Driscoll, the despairing author, shared the honors. In the Spring, FHamlet, the most popular of Shakespeare ' s tragedies, graced the stage of the Repertory. Ted Marier was the star of the evening in the role of the despondent son. Assisting him were Walter FHerlihy, Stan Driscoll, George St. Pierre, Ray Belliveau, Al Aronson, and Bob Adams. The late Fall of Senior year saw the war tragedy Journey ' s End selected by the society. The lead was in the capable hands of Walter FHerlihy as Captain Stanhope. Stan Driscoll, Walter Provenzano, Edward Stanton,. Bob McDonald and others completed the cast. The morality drama, Everyman, was the Lenten vehicle. The Spring play was selected from the ranks of the greater dramatists of the world, the inspiring drama of Richilieu. For four years, we have witnessed a group of collegians endeavoring to bring to an audience plays that were culled from the works of famous modern and classic authors. To maintain the high quality of histrionic ability and selection of plays, our successors have a goal that is enviable for any amateur. 228 U B JOURNEY ' S END Walter Herlihy as Captain Stanhope All the world ' s a stage. How immortal these words of the noble Shakespeare, and how aptly are they suited to those who endeavor to apply them where human nature appears as it is. On the boards of the theatre, whether in the seclusion of the summer colony, or in the masnificence of the urban playhouse, men and women try to see man in his grand scale of emotions. Our own students, on a smaller scale, but none the less sincerely, have brought to our gaze the glorious paradox of man, nobly and artfully. May their memory linger on. CAPTAIN APPLEJACK Francis Mulligan as Captain Applejack and Maurice Allison 229 O o N -.vard, Pestier, O ' Brien, Landiv Hdnnon, Sheehan (Pres.), Dugan ETHICS ACADEMY OFFICERS John J. Sheehan President Wilham E. F annon Vice-President John R. Hogan Secretary One of the most popular extra curricular activities at the F eights was the Ethics Academy, the pur- pose of which was to supplement the daily lectures with practical applications of the principles acquired in the lecture hall. In this way the members of the Academy gained a wider understanding and better application of this most important subject. Under the direction of Mr. Ouane, S.J., and with John Sheehan as president, an enjoyable and profitable year was afforded. Indeed the Academy was of great value to the upper classmen for it gave the students an opportunity to discuss, under proper guidance, the practical phases of ethical truths. Ethics require a constant application, so that the Academy, in pointing out the way to the students, cleared up any misunderstood principles by applying them. At the meetings on Tuesday afternoons, Mr. Ouane delivered a series of lectures which were followed by lengthy but interesting open forums. The first subject to be approached was Communism. Every possible phase of the subject — its origin, history, aim, progress, dangers and activities — was thor- oughly investigated. Surely, at this time, when Communism is rapidly spreading in our own country, no more vital subject could be chosen. It placed a responsibility upon the members to refute the unethical principles of such radicalism. The second series of lectures by Mr. Ouane was on the reconstruction of the social order. Taking as his subject matter the Ouadragessimo Anno of Pope Pius XI, delivered on the fortieth anniversary of the Rerum Novarum of Leo XIII, he analyzed the situation most carefully. These subjects. Communism and the Social Reconstruction, came at a most advantageous time si nce the Seniors were preparing to launch their careers in a world infested with such doctrines. The extensive lectures on Communism by Mr. Ouane were most enlightening, as well as startling. In a most beneficial way he pointed out the cunningness and wile of Soviets and Communists. F e demon- strated how their principles are both economically unsound and ethically untenable for, under the Com- munistic regime, man has been stripped of his inalienable natural rights and made to submit himself to the dictatorship of so-called collectivism. To remedy the present chaotic situation in economics, the Moderator referred to the Encyclicals of Popes Leo and Pius concerning the desired vertical integration of the present social order. In addition to these, the members of the Academy suggested countless practical remedies. Such discussions as these are sure to aid us in later life for the very subjects, which we discusss lightly during college, may later be our life problems. All that the Ethics Academy has offered will be retained as a memory of happy associations made in this organization. 230 E • 1 5 -SUB • TURRI Doneldn, Aronson, Brogen (Pres.), Gaquin FRENCH ACADEMY OFFICERS I ■r- D President Irvin C. Brogan v . n j . Albert Aronson V.ce-President Daniel Pratola Secretary T c r ■... reasurer Ihomas b. Uaquin John F. Donelan President of Literary Committee The work of the French Academy during the past four years at the Heights has closely followed the plan of its first moderator, the Reverend Paul de Mangeleere, S.J., who instituted the group more than ten years ago. The end of the Academy is threefold. First, to stimulate interest among the undergraduates for language, literature and expression of French. Secondly , to give those interested in French an opportunity to practice French conversation, and at the same time interpret the history of French literature. Finally, to present public seances on present day topics which have a definite bearing on French art, politics, and literature. Father de Mangeleere, who zealously guided the club through many difficult, yet fruitful years until this year decided that, because of the tremendous amount of work which fell to fiim in the Uraduate School, he must relinquish his duties as Moderator of the Academy. F is withdrawal was a great loss to the Academy; however, the appointment of Mr. Andre G. de Beauvivier, Associate Professor ol hrench, as successor to Father de Mangeleere was very gladly received by the Academicians for they felt him to be admirably suited to carry on the fine work of his predecessor. The public meeting of December last was an indication of the excellentguidance of the new Moderator. The presentation of two complete plays was an innovation for these meetings, and were very much ap- preciated by the guests of the evening, Father Rector, Mrs. Bergeron and the French Consul. Ihe work of the Academy has been complimented at various times during the past four years by His liminence. Cardinal O ' Connell, a recognized French scholar, who has honored it with his presence at some ot its meetings. The weekly program during the past four years has been largely and intensely literary. In Freshman and Sophomore, a type program was— the discussion of a major poet, a prose writer, an orator or a critic, and for the remaining meeting, a debate on some current problem. In Junior, the program was almost entirely devoted to the history and criticism of French drama. In Senior, the Modernists were treated, and to furnish general interest, each week some French city was described and lantern-slides of the city were shown. During the past four years, the class of 1935 has contributed many valuable members to the Academy. They have performd admirably in public, thereby reflecting favorably and creditably on ' the college as an institution among whose great aims is the fostering of classical languages and literature. The traditions of the Academy are difficult and lofty to uphold, but the men of the class of 1935 have done a great part in perpetuating the high ideals set for the Academy and developed to such a high degree by its founder. 231 O o N Carpenito, Lynch (Pres.) McGrath SPANISH ACADEMY OFFICERS Roy W. Lynch, ' 35 President William J. Carpenito, ' 37 Vice-President John E. McGrath, Jr., ' 37 Secretary-Treasurer The Modern Language Academies afford an opportunity of obtaining the complete understanding of the language and customs of foreign nations which cannot be obtained in the classroom routine. The aim, then, of the Spanish Academy is to cultivate a greater knowledge, consideration and understanding of the Spanish people and their ideals in those to whom the Spanish tongue is already a subject known and understood. The series of lectures dealing with the history, life and customs of Spain was begun by President Roy Lynch, who spoke on the ' Charm of Spain. Maurice Ahern followed with a lecture on Spain — The Land of Paradox, and then on consecutive weeks Charles Dolan treated the Spain of today ' Vice- President William Carpenito revealed the Political Tendencies of Present Day Spain,- John McGrath presented Spanish Agriculture,- John Stenholm spoke on Spanish Women and Their Influence on the Nation ' Edward Clancy dealt with ' The Spaniard and Recreation. Other subjects that were treated throughout the year were Spain ' s Foreign Trade, Educational Needs of Spain, and Transportation in Spain. On numerous occasions at the conclusion of the day ' s lecture and informal open forum was held. In this manner, many points which were briefly touched during the main discussion were clarified and many new details and interesting highlights revealed. Also the speaker of the day gladly answered any questions and difficulties which the members presented to him pertaining to his subject. The meetings of the Academy however were not restricted to a lecture where one member did all the work, but there was usually a grammar review as well as a short vocabulary build-up exercise included in the program of the day so that each member shared individually in the benefits of the society. Moreover, on various occasions, the Moderator, Mr. Frederick Conlin, presented a number of enlightening talks on the finer points of Spanish diction and composition. These talks by the Moderator were very beneficial and instructive. During his presentations he dealt with the romance and charm of the Spanish language. In this manner the student perceives the atmosphere of the literature and art of the country instead of the somewhat brief and often hackneyed information contained in the regular class book. The program of the year ' s activities was concluded with the reading and analyzing of the more interest- ing ancient and modern Spanish plays together with a comprehensive study of the dramatists and tragedians of Spain. This method of treatment allowed an insight into the art and mastery of the ancient literateurs and provided an opportunity of comparing their works with the modern writers. Although the economic and revolutionary policies of Spain have practically isolated its art and literature, through the Spanish Academy a true insight into their charm and eloquence can be acquired by a student desirous of polishing his education in the modern languages. 232 U B Rear: Lydon, Carney, Fitzgerald Front; Dwyer, O ' Brien (Pres.), McCarthy ECONOMICS ACADEMY OFFICERS , . .n • ir . • ■President Clement A.

KA - J I- J The regular program was inaugurated with an interesting and instructive lecture on Machines, delivered by James Lydon ' 35. After the lecture, the members of the Academy engaged in a lengthy discussion which demonstrated the interest awakened in the subject. At the next meeting a concerted study of the Ac s of Congress under the administration of President Roosevelt was begun. Because of the Sreat number of tese so called alphabetical Acts, every member of the Academy was f ' f, f rjf e A demy some phase of the policy of the present administration. For several weeks the walls ot the Academy room rang with such symbols as NIRA, FERA, HOLC, and countless oters. In .addition he Executie Board John McCarthy and Paul Dwyer, was appointed to investigate the merits o these Acts In ts report the Bo d app oved most of the Acts but it was quite vehement in its criticism of the famous Artie e 7A of ' the NationalTndustrial Recovery Act, the Article which has been the bone o cont- ' °J m difficulties between company and non-company Unions. fHpwever by a vote of the assembled members, it was decided that the Acts of Congress were intrinsically sound. Economists of international repute were obtained as guest speakers, The Academy rnade several tours of inspection to the Federal Reserve Bank, the Stock Exchange and several business plants. In addition fmoiron ptctuVe was obtained and shown for the benefit of the entire student body. The Academy, on the whole, established a record which will serve as a goal in future years. 233 o o N iiif«t r.4iv;; iW McDonough, Ryan, O ' Connor (Pres.), Larkin O L O G y SEMINAR OFFICER Robert B. O ' Connor President Thomas I. Ryan Vice-President John J. Larkin Secretary James F. McDonough Treasurer The desire of students in the science and biology courses to discuss extra-curricularly problems of current interest in their special field led to the establishment of the Biology Seminar. In its present form the Seminar is an evolution of the Pre-Medical clubs formerly organized as extra-curricular activities by students specializing in the pre-medical sciences and biology. Reverend Francis J. Dore, S.J., hiead of the Department of Biology, acted as Faculty Moderator and Adviser to the Seminar of thisyear. Meetings of the organization v ere held on the third hour on Thursday throughout the scholastic terms. At each meeting pertinent problems in biological science and medical ethics v ere discussed. Papers on the various topics were read by the individual students and, on conclusion, the topic was laid before the gathering for discussion. The importance of the Seminar is evident. The benefits accruing to the individual student cannot be overestimated. As a result of its activities there has developed among its members a spirit of unity and good fellowship and a deep appreciation of the personal interest which the faculty has shown in all its undertakings. Jn addition, personal effort has been encouraged and fostered by the fact that each mem- ber has a chance to express himself semi-publicly on topics familiar to him. Each man has likewise been given a clear and authoritative exposition of the pressing Medical and Biological questions viewed in the light of Catholic dogma and Christian principles. The organization has crystallized in its members the scientific and classical lore they have received from their Alma Mater. In them it has implanted her best traditions and has prepared them that, as groups and individuals, they may go forth to the schools of their choice and do her credit. And so, though a comparatively new institution, the Seminar was one of the most vigorous and active in the life of the college. And it is fitting that this should be so, for no organization could have a higher purpose than to teach young men to cherish as their own the high moral principles which are the ideal of every Catholic physician and scientist.

Executive Committee Students of history devote each Wednesday afternoon to discuss some particular phase of Nineteenth Century European Life. The intended goal of education, that not so much to inform as to train for application later to modern problems, was carefully planned and fufilled by this club. Members select their subject and treat it originally for their benefit and that of the listeners. Besides discussing the modern historical problems, the members delve into the study of the outstanding personage of the era. This method exposes the unknown weaknesses of some historians and gives the college critics an opportunity of forrning an unbiased opinion on their historical works and characters they have treated. When carefully selected sources are chosen the final result is indeed well worth the attention of the members. In addition to the work of the students in the academy the best available authority is had as a climax to the extended dis- courses. Great interest is generally shown by the entire student body to the supplementary lecture by such authorities as Fr. J. F. X. Murphy, S.J., Fr. Martin FHarney, S.J., and Fr. Jones I. Corrigan, S.J. Founded to supplement the class courses, the society has indeed extended to a far more useful and invaluable study. The special aid rendered each member by the moderator has proved invaluable and has been far reaching in guiding the society along the successful path.

In other words, expression was as important as absorption. Education became what it was intended to be — not mere passive information. Consequently, in the science courses, seminars were instituted as a furtherance of knowledge and exc hange of it. The Physics Seminar, under the direction of Fr. Tobin, enjoyed a very profitable and successful season. The purpose of the Seminar is to further knowledge of, and interest in, particular phases of Physical Science. This is accomphshed by a series of papers prepared and read by the various students of physical science who constitute the membership of the Seminar. The lectures are usually given by the members who are studying for their Master of Science Degree, thus insuring a mature and adequate treatment of the subjects chosen. By listening to these lectures, the members of the Seminar may acquire a knowledge of many different phases of scientific endeavor and achievement which time would not permit them to investigate personally. Further, the lecturer reaps a substantial profit from his efforts insomuch as he has familiarized himself with a topic of general scientific interest, which he is prepared to discuss intelligently, thus offering as further proof that Jesu it-trained men arz able to express their thoughts and offer substantial proof of their education. The Catholic contribution to Science has always been prominent and it is by means of such institutions as the Physics Seminar in Catholic Colleges that the continued interet in Science insures the further participation of Catholic gentlemen in this field. The lectures during the year were: Inductance, its Application and Measurement. LEO NORTON Curvilinear Co-ordinates. N. CEDRONE Physical Treatment of Resonance and its Application in Radio Circuits. EDWARD POWERS The Permanent State of Temperature in a Thin Plate. LEO NORTON Vacuum Tubes and their Amplifying Effect in Radio Circuits. RALPH Dl MATTEIA Solution of LaPlace Equations.

Kelly Treasurer The sight of a college band marching down the gridiron, blaring forth its songs of victory, encouraging its loyal classmates who are struggling with a very stubborn foe, and exhorting the mass of students in the huge stands to lend their every effort to bring greater honor to the fair name of their Alma Mater, always quickens one ' s heart and rekindles the fires of loyalty which burn in the souls of all college men. The drum major, attired in his colorful military uniform, is displaying his ability with the baton while the spectators marvel at his ability to go through such intricate manoeuvers. The group swings along, each man marching in perfect unison, and finally comes to a halt in front of the home stands to be rewarded by the tremendous ovation of thousands. Equally inspiring has been the achievement of the other two branches of the Musical Club, the Orchestra and the Glee Club. After attending a concert given by the orchestra, or listening to the Glee Club render a difficult classical composition, the conviction is born that our Musical Clubs are second to none in New England. Our concert master this year was Edmund Klipa from Salem, h is ability to act in this capacity was exceeded only by his ability to play the violin. When Edmund took his bow in hand, the most difficult masterpieces of the famous classical composers seemed easy. The class of 1934 had its Teddy Marier at the piano, but we boast of our Edmund Klipa and his violin. Al Giannelli, the popular president of the Club will always be remembered for the manner in which he conducted the band at the football games. FHe was certainly a colorful performer and his ability to stir the student body was remarkable. The schedule of the Musical Club was an extensive one. The Glee Club opened its season on January 24th, singing during the Catholic Truth FHour over WNAC. On February 3rd the orchestra made its first public appearance at the Copley Plaza, playing at Fr. FHubbard ' s lecture. The annual concert at Jordan FHall sponsored by the Society of Jesus of New England was well received by a large and ap- preciative Boston audience. The Catholic Teachers of Providence, the West Roxbury Woman ' s Club, the Philomatheia Club, the Assumption Academy of Wellesley, Weston College and Regis College were all visited in due course. The trip to New York during the Easter FHolidays was a success both from the point of view of the Moder- ator, Fr. Gilleran, S.J., and the members of the Club. The climax was reached in the joint concert with Holy Cross at the Copley Plaza. Boston critics were treated to a musical program in which many difficult works were interpreted with an ease and facility which marked the men as artists of great talent and ability, and lent added honor to Boston College. 237 o O N O n I ' M- 1 ' 1 ' 1 ' L ab ' i Front: F.

Moyndhan, ' 35 President Fred T. Moore, ' 36 Vice-President William G. FHayward, ' 36 Secretary Edward J. O ' Keefe, ' 35 Treasurer The Press Club is composed of student representatives of tfie various Boston newspapers. This or- ganization has confined its efforts during the past four years to the writing of accurate and precise accounts of all activities at University FHeights. For the first few years of its existence as an extra-curricular activity, the Press Club received little or no commendation for its achievements. FHowever, the value of this unique assembly finally won due notice and the Press Club was accorded its place among the activities of the College. The excellent manner in which this organization treated football, baseball, and track in the city news- papers during 1934-35 will be long remembered by appreciative participants. General news of the College also came under the jurisdiction of the members of the Fourth Estate. One particular virtue of this Club was the true Boston College spirit which its members portrayed in publishing their news. No article was ever written by any one of the student correspondents which contained, either implicitly or explicitly, anything detrimental to the welfare of the students, faculty, or alumni. Paul R. Moynahan, President of the Club, was always a source of information for the other members of the organization. fHe saw that vital news was distributed to each representative at the proper time, hlis own sphere of journalism was devoted to the Sporting Department of the Traveler but he spent no small amount of time and energy in making contacts especially relative to the News Department. Fred T. Moore, Vice-President of the Club, represented the interests of the h erald Sporting De- ment. Fred was a participant in two major sports at the College — football and hockey, and he also played on the Golf Team. The actual part which he took in these athletic activities gave him a clear understanding of sports. Fred was duly modest and, as a result, the name of Moore was rarely, if ever, seen on the sport page of the FHerald. William G. Hayward, Secretary of the Club, represented the Boston Daily and Evening Globe. Mark J. Dalton handled news for the FHerald and also contributed to the sporting page of the Worcester Telegram. Edward J. O ' Keefe joined the Press Club in the year 1934-1935, as the representative of the Post. In his one year of membership, he became an ardent advocate of all B. C. publicity. Richard M. Kelly was perhaps the youngest member of the Club. - s activities in the field of journalism were confined to the FHearst syndicate. Dick handled both news and sports for both the Record and the American. Edward J. O ' Brien, Editor of the FHeights, was forced to cease his reportorial duties because of the college paper. - s place on the Transcript staff was taken by John F. Donelan of Sophomore. In future years the organization of the press associates, the benign members of the Fourth Estate, will find in this year ' s club a noteable standard. Its Seniors, O ' Keefe, Moynahan, and O ' Brien, have successfully maintained the tradition of their predecessors. We believe that it will continue to be the medium of publicity for its Alma Mater --always representative, honest, and efficient. 241 O O N O Ldrkin, Gdlvin (Pres.), Riley Frank Galvin, ' 35 John Larkin, 35 RADIO CLUB OFFICERS President Secretary-Treasurer The Radio Club, a traditional organization of the college, has come into prominence during the past year. Under the direction and through the generosity of Father Tobin, S.J., and with Mr. Connolly, S.J., as moderator, the club has developed into a large and active organized body. Its activity consists chiefly in building experimental apparatus, and actually testing it on two-way radio communication. The success of these tests is testified to by numerous cards confirming contacts with France, Australia, Germany, England, Africa and many other foreign countries. The newest and latest in radio equipment is constantly being tested by the members with the valuable assistnace of Mr. Gager, the technical adviser. Developmental work has been done on the five meter amateur band, and the club is now turning its attention to even higher frequencies in the vicinity of the three-quarter meter band. The equipment of the club is of the very best and latest design. The short wave receiver is a National FB7, one of the few really efficient amateur receivers. The continuous wave transmitter designed by Mr. Gager and built up by the members, is capable of putting a powerful signal on almost all of the amateur bands. The ultra-high frequency bands are taken care of by the five meter transceiver, an efficient radio- phone receiver and transmitter that has aroused much outside interest in its advancement among organiza- tions of this nature. Tests are also under way on a powerful polyphase transmitter, the tri-radiate antenna of which has caused approbation from numerous sources. As it is necessary to be licensed or operate a transmitter, courses are given to the unlicensed members to assist them in passing the examination necessary for such credentials. These courses include code re- ception and transmission, radio theory, and federal regulations governing the use of transmitters. Interest in amateur radio has been increased by these lectures, and many students have been introduced to this fascinting hobby. The membership of the club numbers over thirty-five at present and each class is well represented. It enjoyed a year, successful in research and practical application, due to the generosity and the scientific interest of Fr. Tobin, head of the Physics Department who ma de it possible by purchasing the new appa- ratus. It is no idle boast of the Radio Club that it continually adds to the renown of Boston College in the scientific world, especially in the sphere of radio communication. 242 U B Back; Beauregard, Liddell, Dalton, Killion, Masuire, Sullivan Front; Roche, Donelan, Scannell, Catey, Deacon CATHOLIC ACTION COUNCIL Robert Curran, ' 35 President J. Frank Scannell, ' 36 Secretary At the beginning of this scholastic year, another association was added to those already in existence here at Boston College. This new organization was to be known as the Central Council of Catholic Organizations. Its purpose is to try to bring influence to bear on the political leaders of the district in order that many of the practices now so prevalent may be absolished. The Council consists of twenty-six members, each assigned to a definite district, who will be in charge of Council operations in his own division. These members will be the chairmen of the Regional Councils set up to carry on the work in more detail. Since each region is further divided, each district has its own representative who will, in most cases, be a member of the Junior class, just as the Regional chairmen will be Seniors. To supervise the work of each district and regional council, a Boston College alumnus is installed, whose duty it is to act as adviser. While the student members will be changed evrey year, these advisers are to be in permanent positions. To avoid the charge that might be hurled, viz.: that the Council is operating merely for personal or political motives, all members are asked to sign a pledge that they will not use the organization as a means to furthering any but the ends of the Council, and will not associate it any way with political charitable or social movements. Furthermore, no Block leader can act without the written permission of the District leader,- the District leader cannot take any steps without permission of the Regional leader who, in turn, must receive the sanction of the Central Council. Finally, the Central Council is enjoined from acting unless they have been authorized to do so by the Auhorities of Boston College. 1 . Lynn 2. Salem 3. Peabody 4. hiaverhill 5. Lawrence 6.

FHarding, announced a continuation of Catholic Intellectual Activity by the presentation of four different sets of Symposia on current and modern religious mov ements. FHe started off by drawing up a schedule for the Fall and Winter series. This schedule consisted of seven lectures on Christian Science by members of the Senior Class and seven lectures on the Oxford Movement by members of the Junior Class. These fourteen lectures v ere presented at each of the weekly meetings of the Sodality and as each group was finished it became part of the external activities of the Sodality, and were presented at the various Catholic Clubs and Church Organizations throughout Greater Boston. In addition to this program, on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception a special program on the prayers and life of the Blessed Virgin was presented. FALL SERIES. . . .

The ideal plan is one in which letters, science and religion are stressed in their interdependent relations. In keeping with this ideal one week of each scholastic year is set aside for meditation and contem- plation of the fundamental tenets of our Faith. Under the guidance of our Retreat Masters we review the great Truths and Doctrines which are our proud heritage. In this spiritual rejuvenation we judge our conduct in the light of these principles, recognize our shortcomings and profit by them. At the conclusion of the Retreat we present ourelves to our confessors and prepare for that great profession of our haith, the reception of the Blessed Sacrament. In the past we have been singularly fortunate in the men who, as Retreat Masters, have given us in- spirational guidance. In our Freshman year the Reverend William M. Stinson, S.J., reviewed for us our inherent dependence on God and FHis goodness and the obligation which this entails. Then, as Sophomores, the Reverend Joseph J. Williams, S.J., brought out to us the great importance of moral development in proportion to mental development. The following year the Reverend William Murphy, S.J., taught us vividly the inestimable worth of our immortal soul. Finally, in our Senior year, came the most important and the most sublime retreat of our college life. It was conducted by the Reverend Edward P. Tivnan, S.J. His practical advice and wise counsel, coming to us on the threshold of our new lives, was invaluable. He urged us to remember that each one of us was writing, by our deeds and actions, a story of our Service to the Master of all Creation His plea that we make this story one of praise and good accomplishment was inspiring and soul stirring. I he lessons of this Rerteat will remain long imprinted in the hearts of 35. MAY DEVOTIONS Each year at the Spring season, the thoughts of the student body turn to the period of spiritual applica- tion of values to everyday behavior. The month of May is very appropriately dedicated to tfie blessed Virgin inasmuch as the Spring of the year— the resurrection of physical life may be applied analougously to our religious existence. The Blessed Virgin is symbolic of that assistance and need that is so necessary for a successful spiritual resurrection. Consequently, under the dirction of Father Keyes, SJ., a period of hfteen minutes is set aside each day from the scholastic course of events for instruction These brief discourses are delivered by members of the Senior Class who have excelled in some mode of extra-curricula activity. The topics are selected from the Litanies of the Blessed Virgin with the two-fold purpose of reminding the student body of their obligation in the summer months and especially to Seniors who are about to encounter the pitfalls of modernism. The topics selected were: Mother of Christ, Mother of Divine Grace, Mother Most Pure, Mother of Good Counsel, Virgin Most Prudent, Virgin Most Powerful, Virgin Most MericfuL Seat of Wisdom, Gate of Heaven, Health of the Weak, Refuge of Sinners, Comforter of the Afflicted, Oueen of Apostles. The Seniors who spoke were: Francis Liddell, William Fitzsimons, Joseph Curran, Raymond Belliveau, Robert Curran, Joseph Ryan, Grover Cornin, John Joyce, Joseph Riley, Joseph Kelley, Robert Adams, Henry Ohrenberger, Donald Shannon.

Deep studies of psychology, ethics and various electives ranging from biology to law were put in the background while pleasure and gaiety were urged foreward. It was indeed fitting that mental and physical relaxation should be entertained in order to keep a sound mind in a sound body. The usual pre-dance preparations were arranged and every detail was meticulously in order. Weather usually independable favored us with a cool, crisp night; not a cloud in the stygian heavens but a gentle January evening tending greeting. In the lobby of the hotel couples were gathering,- greeting and proceeding to the ball room. Once inside and after having found the table for the evening, the exchange of careless banter with companions acclimated the men to the surroundings, hiere the curious contrast of age and youth! Age with its cloak of dignity and reserve cast aside for a night ' s entertainment and youth assuring the dignity and reserve of seniority, but not conquering the impulse for enjoyment. Music, melody and song urged all to enjoy its charm in dance. Jack Machard, the toast of society from Bar Harbor to Boston, directed his musicians in a novel arrangement of irresistible tunes. Philoma- theians and students mingled in one great toast to good-cheer. June in January, the exotic Conti- nental, Stay as Sweet as Your Are and Rain were among the numbers most enjoyed. When at last there came an intermission from dancing the seniors proceeded to the foyer of the Ballroom and formed for their last promendae. To a medley of college songs they marched down the hall, then around. Confetti, streamers and applause greeted them from every corner. At last the chord of Alma Mater was struck, the marching ceased and a volley of song surged throughout the ballroom. During the singing, memories of Freshman, Sophomore and Junior Years drifted through out minds, and the unpleasant thought that tomorrow we would be through seemed to clutch at our throats and choke off the words of our beloved song. Once again from our revery to the dance where careless gaiety and exuberance constituted the manifestation of usual spirits. At length came the time to dine. Then back to the dance,- again the walls re-echoed the good-cheer of youth and age, united in spirit, united in joy. Finally came the undesirable hour of finis. The orchestra chimed in with the good night refrain of Merrily We Roll Along, cheerful au revoirs, then out in the night again from our first and last reception by this unique organization so vital to the life of our Alma Mater. Our sincerest and deepest appreciation to the Philomatheia Club is all we can say. 247 o o N Rear: McCarthy, Donovan, Ohrenberger, Moynahan Front: O ' Connor, Eaton, Liddell, Joyce SENIOR PROMENADE Francis T. Eaton Cha Joseph E. Donovan, Jr. Stephen J. Joyce COMMITTEE Bernard M. Moynahan Robert B. O ' Connor John A. McCarthy, Jr. Elmer M. Rynne Henry W. Ohrenberger Memories of a college life, resplendent with the harmony of enjoyable evenings passed in close collegiate comradeship, were passing before our imaginative scrutiny. Each year was climaxed by a successful social event as a tribute to the intimacy of our happy moments as students. All these could not go unrewarded in Senior — our last few months together in a unified body. Thus, because of the success of the reception of the Philomatheia Club at the Copley and, secondarily, because of a necessity to acquire new funds for the numerous expenses of Senior year, a new step forward was undertaken in the form of a Senior Prom. The only exception to the general rule was that the supper dance was open to the whole student body — a winter social event offered in the name and spirit of class friendship. Again the Main Dining Room of the hHotel Statler, the scene of our Junior Prom, was chosen as the spot for our college supper dance on February 21st. Joe Reichman, popular New York orchestra maestro, provided the dance tunes — the Prom again taking its place among collegiate affairs, offering to students famous music in a delightful dancing rendezvous at a startlingly low tariff. At nine-thirty the room was practically filled with merry-makers. The Senior Class turned out en masse while a goodly number of representatives from other classes formed a capacity gathering. The young couples swayed lightly to the musical interpretation by the orchestra in the dim lighted dining room. Seniors were conspicuous because of their savoir-faire and careless reserve, Juniors with their dignity. Sophomores with their pseudo-sophistication, and Freshman with their puerile and bashful manner, hlowever, all were inspired with a single purpose — to say farewell to the winter season and to the dancing of Boston College life. Again the Statler cuisine lived up to expectations. During the dinner, two of Boston ' s favorite radio songsters entertained with the rendition of popular melodies. Then the return to the dance floor! Reichman at his novel piano directed the orchestra in new arrange- ments of popular songs, accommodating every request which he received. Indeed he was constantly the center of attraction because of his ability to manipulate the ivory piano keys with remarkable dexterity. Finally, a medley of Boston College songs burst from the orchestra rostrum. Choral arrangements were given by the students and their friends. For Boston and Alma Mater were undoubtedly the most popular songs of the evening. Finally the end came. It always seems to come at the height of fun and pleasure; but, no matter, it came. Gaiety and cheer subsided as the couples wended their way out; one last look back at the scene of our last public dance as Seniors, then homeward. The cool morning awakened warm thoughts of college pleasures which would in three months hence be just memories. 248 3 5 • SUB • TURR Back; Moynahan, Herlihy, Cdlldhan, Sullivan Front: O ' Brien, Holland, Belliveau, Crowley JUNIOR WEEK Raymond L.

Crowley Chairman of Committee for Tickets Our Junior Week began in the traditional manner of paying thanks to Almighty God. Mass was celebrated in Saint Ignatius Chapel, and was followed by a satisfying breakfast in the Senior Assembly Hall of the Tower Building. The speakers for the occasion were members of the Junior Faculty, our late beloved Dean, the Reverend President, and the guest speaker, the Honorable Charles Hurley, State Treasurer. In spite of the inclement weather, a large representation of the class was present. The bell announcing the end of classes for Tuesday was more welcome than usual, for it heralded the Tea Dance. The conservative and staid Hotel Kenmore became the scene of intense gaiety and exuberance. The music was provided by a popular broadcasting orchestra, the Teddy Bears. On Tuesday evening, the Juniors enjoyed the modern and most successful of the Dramatic Society, Once in a Lifetime. The uproarious comedy continued the buoyant feeling of ease and pleasure that accompanies Junior Weeks. Two Juniors, Walter Herlihy and Ray Belliveau starred in the vehicle, which played to a full house. t i l l The Boston Arena re-echoed the spirits of Boston College men and their farier friends when the Eagles met the Boston University sextet in an exciting hockey gmae. The Eagle screeched and the Terrier growled during a fast and furious clash. Sad to say, however, the Terrier managed to swipe one of the Eagle feathers, and were the victors by a score of 8-2. Songs, dances, speeches, skits, and a peculiar operation performed by a group of our Seniors provided an interesting evening for the stag party. Many individuals prominent in sports, journalism, and professional fields addressed the students on subjects of timely importance. All the careless entertainment and previous activity of our Junior Week converged upon the most important social event of our college life, the Junior Prom. The Main Dining Room of the Hotel Statler, resplendent in its novel architecture and appointment provided a warm and comfortable environment for our Prom, in contrast with the onslaught of a cold February night. As the couples entered the sanctuary of pleasure from the large lobby of the Hotel, each person was presented with a favor. The gold pendant bearing the seal of Boston College, evoked admiring coment from our fair companios. A modest smile lighted the countenance of the Junoris when he opened the small package containing a gold key, not unlike those displayed by Phi Beta Kappa men, and which also bore the seals. The Dorsey Brothers, who had recently completed a successful European tour entertained with their captivating rhythm s. At midnight came the Promenade! The members of the Junior Class and their gay friends marched with dignity and reserve from the lobby of the dining room around the dance floor and the familiar strains of Hail, Alma Mater rose in stirring tribute to the class of ' 35. When all things dre considered, we find that we had enjoyed every social function attended, but the Promenade most of all, perhaps because of its tradition, but more probably, because of the fact that it was a splendid party, and one which will always be cherished as a remarkable social achievement. 249 N O SOPHOMORE PROMENADE Eugene Donaldson Chairman Randolph Wise John Flynn George Flavin David Concannon Joseph Curran Charles Callahan The next important date on our social calendar was that of the Sophomore Prom. Although awaited anxiously, it was not with the same boyish eagerness which had characterized our first prom. This time we were confident, firm in the belief that we had become true socialites, who could be at ease at any function. The choice of a partner was not difficult, for we had had experience in this very necessary art the year before, and so the preparations were soon completed. Tickets, transportation currency, and corsage were encouragingly in order. Finally the eventful day, or rather, the eventful night came. Unlike the eventful nights in stories, this one was not bright and clear, but was, on the contrary, showery. FHowever, this did not dampen our spirits, much less keep us away. And so we made our varied ways to the scene, the ballroom of Chamber of Commerce Building. Here we experienced much the same routine as we had the previous year . . . exchanging greetings and pleasantries with the friends whom we met. FHow different this time! No shyness or self-consciousness, but in their place a mild and somewhat sophisticated reserve. There was novelty in this dance for us, because it was the first supper dance sponsored by our class. The pleasing repast was made even more enjoyable by the accompanying music of Ruby Newman ' s orchestra. The features of the musical presentation was the intricate and comical wielding of the sticks by Sammy the drummer. Added to this was the soft picturesque and pleasing background for the entire affair. After a time couples began to drift back into the ballroom from the salons to resume the dance and complete the promenade. It seemed at the time as if all troubles, both scholastic and otherwise, were forgotten, and that this, our Sophomore Prom was a glorious toast to success. But the climax had been reached, and the ending was at hand. Once more around the ballroom, while the orchestra played the finale, our second social year was brought to a close. Upon leaving the building, we descended in the elevators, a procedure which in itself is not unusual, but which seemed at the time, most appropriate, for it afforded the transition from perfect idealism to abrupt realism. And so after hurried adieus we made our varied ways homeward, confident in the belief that our second prom had been a huge success and would leave with us pleasant memories for years to come. FRESHMAN PROMENADE Daniel Holland Chairman Francis Liddell Gordon Connors Roger Kirvan William Casey Freshman Promenade! The long-awaited in troduction into the collegiate whirl was about to become a reality. To say we were looking forward to it eagerly would be phrasing the sentiment mildly; such words could not adequtely express the months of longing anticipation and painstaking preparation which we underwent before the arrival of the all-important evening. Lists of eligible partners had to be gone over very carefully, for the chosen one was that evening to be the object of many critical eyes, and therefore had to be one who would stand out in the midst of all the others. Finally the time arrived ... the evening of May twentieth, 1932. We can rightfully imagine that many hearts beat just a little faster than usual when the hour came for departure to the scene of the festivities. And the exciternent increased when the ballroom was reached. Here could be seen young men attending their first college function, escorting their far companions into the Main Ballroom of the Copley Plaza, and trying to appear at ease. Some more experienced than the others could be seen strutting about with that surety which belongs only to the initiated. However, the first awkwardness wore off very quickly, and soon the floor was filled with happy couples dancing to the music of the Casa Loma orchestra. In general, the self-consciousness and the inferiority complexes so peculiar to the Freshman were lacking, and in their stead was that feeling of irrepressible boyishness and pleasure that comes on such occasions. The most striking feature of the dance was the novel lighting effects by which the ballroom was bathed in soft lights throughout the evening. They reflected upon the swaying couples, producing an awe-inspiring effect upon all. The orchestra, now the foremost in the country as masters of melody, displayed its varied tunes in its own inimitable style. Artistic arrangements of such old favorites as Put on Your Old Gray Bonnet and Alexander ' s Rag-Time Band, and the raucous rhythm of Tiger Rag mingled with the more reserved airs of Stardust and Sweet and Lovely. The presntation of those song hits of the then current season satisfied even the most meticulous ear. Nor was this presentation the only novelty. There were featured vocalists, and they also did their part in creating in the listeners a new spirit of enchantment and charm. The dance continued resplendent in every detail of style until two o ' clock in the morning. Then the musicians struck up the ever popular Goodnight Sweetheart, followed by the refrain of Goodnight Ladies. As the last strains of the tune faded into the air, couples began to drift slowly from the ballroom. Friendly au revoirs, cheerful goodbyes to departing friends, and a last look back into the scene of a night of long-to-be-remembered joy, and the formal season of Boston College was successfully opened. 250 U B SECTION 5 FEATURES TRISTATUR ALIQUIS VESTRUM?

This was, as is known to us today, the frontier. hlow great, how profound was the influence of the desire for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness on those men and women who were extending our territorial limits in spite of hardship and toil, work, suffering and small compensation never for a moment meant to them a cause of cessation of ambition for realizing their dream. Yet withal, there was likewise born in this new era a carelessness that allowed generations afterwards to almost stifle themselves and crush out human life in an insatiative and unbridled desire for wealth. But government to them, after their organization, was a mens of regulation and insurance of public welfare. They did not imagine that, a brief hundred or so years later, their own members of the new nation would find themselves hopeless, despairing because the dream had been lost. They did not think that, no matter how vexing the circumstances, these distressed people would turn to the deceptive platitudes of the demagogue. If the idea of work and the subsequent return of value in money was to be destroyed and in its place a lazy, smug method of acquiring wealth promised by gods of dictatorship was to hold sway, then the nation of America and its attendant dream would be annihilated. Government then as well as now was to be the parent for the people, — it was the centralization of their sovereignties, to be administered to promote their welfare and safeguard their rights. hHence modern means used to overcome the economic laissez-faire that was a child of the frontier was perfectly in keeping with its duties and government exercised these duties only to help its subjects, not its politicians. hHow peculiar it is to realize that people, who are supposed to think and know their circumstances, place in office men whose only worry is their coffers and whose only joy is removing from office others who have gained their wraths or ignorant jealousy. It seems to be a strange paradox, hardly in keeping with the ideals that were set by our ancestors. Yet, instead of remembering that public office-holders, whether city, state or federal, are supposed to be merely their representatives — administrators of their authority, and not politicians who could not be classed with the worst of criminals, being much more deadly, the people continue to be passive, allured by the futile promises of wealth. We have at the present time an opportunity to strengthen that age-old ideal which is our heritage and our right. The only possible way to do it is to cooperate with the administrative policies tha t mean ultimately life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Our salvation depends upon the younger generation who can see a plan, its benefits and evils and judge accordingly. The maintenance of public welfare asks for the scrutinizing appreciation of the public official by the youthful intellect, trained in righteousness and the principles of justice and charity. Our success will not be found in politicians who have proved themselves incompetent in the past and will always be in the future but rather in good government, administered by representatives who think first of the common good and secondly of their temporary welfare. Possibly this is an unattainable ideal to some. It should not be to us. Such men exist and many are in office today. Intelligent application of principle to governmental affairs will some day rid America of dishonest politicians and bring to a deserving place rulers who were once hoped for — on the frontier. K. L. D. THE BOON OF COMMUNISM Perhaps no other subject inserts itself so constantly and universally into conversatons, items of news, or editorial ballyhoo as does Communism. So much has been written on it, so many things, correct and otherwise, have been said of it, that there has grown up among most people an attitude of indiffernece. The deplorable part of it all is that Communism is still a dangerous, threatening fact. Like the call of Wolf, wolf, when there was no wolf, bred indifference on the part of the shepherds, and then when the wolf did come, the shepherds were unprepared and their flock lost, so may it be with Communism. The danger of Communism that transcends all its other evils, is the utter loss of belief in God. If God be taken from the hearts of men, if the Divine reason that Christ taught us for poverty and pain be ingored, then the whole pattern of living, of being is lost. The why and the whence of it all becomes a blurr. And man is lost in an endless void of selfish gratification of desires, the total ignominy of what by nature should be noble. Yet parlor socialists, in modulated tones, punctuated ith the tinkle of the instruments incidental to the ceremony of afternoon tea, delicately toy with the idea of Communism. On park benches, unshaven faces work vigorously, in rhythm with booming voices that proclaim the rosy glory of what they little under- stand to be a blood-red slavery. Meanwhile most of us have grown weary of even the name Communism. While we continue in our attitude of indifference and placid belief in God, Communism among thousands is making God Almighty a tolerated or abolished alien in h is Own Creation. Indifference is indeed the boon of Communistic development. , „„ „ N. W. B. 251 TO you WITH FAILING HANDS The world has failed. It has failed in its every effort to provide man with an existence that will not sap his powers of intellect or of body. Amidst its confused philosophy and its deteriorating moral standards we have lived and will live as an intricate part of a necessary society. A few years ago to have accused this generation of being the most hopeless failure that the pen of history could have ever inscribed would have brought down on our heads the bombastic utterances of the wise who, in the midst of pleasure and of success even though temporary, could conceive nothing else but a pleasing and permanent endurance of blissful ignorance. We graduate. We are no longer part of a student body guided by those who have remained unperturbed by the biting attacks of misfortune. We have lived in a world that knew not confusion or trouble except in a very meagre, yet magnified, manner. And now when economic well-being is as yet undetermined for its future course, when this once happy group of pleasure seekers have at last realized that their house of gold has been a mere dream — beautiful, pleasant, but so intangible, we must commence an arduous life ' s journey, hfow caustic the aftermath is, how disastrous its results on the hopes and longings of man for a perpetual life free from anxiety and petty troubles. To these people the world offers nothing. It cannot. An effect of this kind must have a cause of the same nature and they themselves have paved the way for their own misfortune. Can they remedy it? For the last few years, they have searched for the keyhole that would open the door to life they once knew. As yet they have not found it and in despair they have given up. A new generation, groups of young men, will now take up the task from the failing hands of their predecessors. They may not be equipped with practical experience. They may be accused of being merely living examples of theories which can never be applied. But at least they have this advantage, and we feel that it is ours more than anybody else ' s, that knowing the ethical standards that are necessary for a supreme and stable mode of living they can lead those who are as yet in the dark of despair and hopelessness. This heritage to become a new group of seekers for the right key to the keyhole that so many have looked for and never found, is ours. Just what we will do depends on ourselves. It is within our power. No greater means can be the method of Catholic Action. The weak but hopeful cry hearkens us to it: To you from failing hands we throw the torch, be yours to hold it high. If you break faith with us who die, we shall not sleep. May we answer it — sincerely. — R. L B. LET US PAY TRIBUTE An education is one of the most costly, even though the most beneficial parts of any man ' s life. It is not something that can be easily acquired without trouble or sacrifice. On the contrary, it requires un- ceasing labor and self-denial. The college man must allot a large portion of his time to his books, and, in some cases, to various outside employment. He has, however, one inevitable and undesirable debt which, in justice, he has to repay. Mere pecuniary indebtedness can be removed, but he always knows this one repayment will never be measured in terms of money. In the rush of college life, and especially as the time of Commencement draws near, he is apt to forget his greatest debt of all — the obligation to his mother and father, the mother and father who gave him the chance which they, perhaps, never had. Mere wordly goods he can give back; favors he can discharge; but this debtor relationship can never be removed, for it is one that was made possible through years of hard and wearisome toil, and sometimes through the very expenditure of life ' s blood. What of this world ' s goods will suffice to make retribution for such an obligation? If, then, there is no way in which it can be repaid, what can he offer? Surely there must be some means by which he may at least approximate the payment to the indebtedness. If he reaches the very pinnacle of success, the value accruing to it would not be enough. Personal aggrandize- ment will not serve, no matter how magnificent. Since the cause must be fitted to the effect, so must the payment be fitted to the debt, and, to the paying of such a debt as this, material goods avail nothing. So, then, we must conclude that there is to be no real recompense. As this world ' s goods cannot pay it, the obligation will always remain. The one way in which we can make a return, even though it be a partial one, is to keep the fact of the obligation constantly in mind and to act accordingly. We owe our lives and education to ThHEM. Why then, should we not dedicate our future lives to the task of repayment? Our future success will be the product of their sacrifices; let us show appreciation by something more than words. Actions are what are needed. —J. c. p. 252 TTlvrE The Four Years Weakly v Volume XXXXXL Circulation- Well, at Least Five COLLEGE MAN (Embryonic) SEE ANY SECTION ir,J.

But to resume, it seems that a certain Mr. Waldo Hulp of Squedunk has in- vented a new fangled cuckoo clock. The cuckoo, on the hour, hops out of the clock, sings bass and lays eggs. He claims he will perfect it until it is able to shoot peas at mothers-in-law. Personally, I think the whole thing is silly. If that cuckoo shot split peas at my mother-in- law, he ' d hop right back into that clock with a split head! Respectftdly, Phineas Katewinkle • Dear Editor : Your account of the painting by Lor- enzo Meep, entitled The Broken Bottle, is at variance with the fact. The painter wah my uncle and was one of the best that ever wet a palate. He tried every- thing before he turned to painting: dish- washing, poultry husbandry, brush selling, etc. One day he grew a beard. Every time people mentioned my uncle ' s beard, they associated a joke with it. The joke was my uncle ' s face. But about the painting, you are wrong in stating that it was a pint bottle. It was a quart. And, if my uncle could hear you making such a false statement, he ' d probably turn over in his grave .... and ask for a drink.

I like your magazine because it ' s just the right size to use for swatting flies. It also can be used as a fan when the summer comes. In the winter it can be used to start the fire. Also, as I said, 1 have read it but I don ' t think it ' s as use- ful when used that way. The reading mat- ter is of the lowest degree of inferiority, it is pure drivel and rot.

Presidents are sissies also inasmuch as they follow the mass mentality (along the gutter) and want stuff all over the column about them, e.xccpt in the Love Columns. For example, we have a President who goes fishing. Sometimes the little lilight- ers squirm out of the difficulties and, on other occasions, the Prexy submerges, but the total result is no fish. Pull up a char- leyhorse and let ' s go to town and then we ' ll be finn(ished). Recently the young twirp decided to go hook line and sinker- ing. After a few minutes of angling and wrangling w ' ith our little friends of the sea, the most astounding thing happened. For no capable reason at all, the twisting and hauling of the line in the capable fingers of the President meant only one of two things, viz. that there was a fish on the end or else the swimming tide had made the hook catch the usual thing — a ledge. Every event usually has its natural result. .Such things as grabbing of fish from the middle of the pond involve diffi- culties and aftermaths that test the forti- tude of the best of us and. when you put a class president in with us, then the sit- uation borders dangerously on the intol- erable. Well, after catching everything else for four years from the freshest fruit of the heartiest garden to dirty digs from opponents, the astonishment that follows on this fishy prize usually causes many things, as we said before. Before anything was observed as unusual, the parting of the ways had occurred between the fisher and his means of support — the deck. To see a shark moving speedily along the waves is no unusual sight at all, even to Ihe most timid. Yet to see a President unceremoniously carjiing ahead, for a mo- ment visible and all the time exhibiting porpoise-like first one stomach, and then a rear vertabrae, is so exciting that his companions were tempted to act very un- justly by setting up a booking ofiice in the middle of the boat. Fortunes were made in that brief moment, almost enough to pay for one Sub Turri (a notorious mag.)

Seering Words Years ba c passed and round our necks have been hung the milestones of lime. Years have passed and our youth has silently flowed away leaving only its dry beds. The winter of life as frosted our beards and its cool biting blasts have .stiff ' d our joints. W ' c have metamorphosed into cranky, misanthropic, gouty, rheu- matic, old wheeze rs with rheumy eyes and tottering gait, our bodies enervated by the advancing years, racked with aches and pains and condemned to the succulent diet of bread and milk. We are treated with respect, reverence and awe. In the tubes chivalrous college hoys and even girl.s — rise dutifully, lip their spencers and ofTcr us their seats, and con- ductors guide our faltering feet on and off Ihe trains. People regard us jiityingly and say amongst each other : Look at those poor old men ! and Boy Scouts, alert for every emergency, hasten to our sides should we vcnlurc to traverse a beaxily-lrarticked boulevard. .All of us have both feet, most of our hair ;uid teeth in the sarcophagus and already our prod- igal grandchildren are scinandering their inherilances. Few of us are able to recall our hectic youth when hot blood coursed our veins, and when the rhythm o f the rhimiba and the rustle of a bustle made our feet ilch. Yea, verily, the old order changeth, yielding place to new.

And musing as I was, I began to account for the activ- ities of my old classmates and the dusty files of memory yielded me a treasure trove of successes. Frank Liddell. renowned civil engineer, has just completed construction of a rail- road tunnel through the Andes Alps. Frank, cloaked in modesty, had this to say: ' ' I don ' t see why they make such a fuss over a Liddell hole. Joe Curran has established himself in the beekeeping industry and his catch phrase — Honey, beehive }-ourself — has swept the country like wild flowers. Joe kilcy was recentlj ' elected to the staff of the Ticker City Hospital. His ad- vice to embPi ' o medicos is this: Never be a doctor : be a success. Jack Murphy is in charge of the West Point Aquarium and he is offering a re- ward of three dollars and forty-three cents for the return of the card-shark stolen Wed. nite. Brother Bob Curran is anchored in the real estate business and selling floating bonds as a sideline. With regard to the former. Bob comments : There ' s a lot to real estate. Naturally, business is best at low tide. John Jugger Joyce, who has held his own in the garter industry, emerges with his annual bon mot. Speaking of the busi- ness, John remarks : It ' s a snap. Dave Concannon, the grand old man of baseball, is still pumping them over the press bo.x with his famous nineteen ounce bludgeon. Asked concerning the future of baseball in America, Dave avers: I ' ve got at least ten more years of baseball in my hide. Grover Cronin, the eminent archaeol- ogist, sailed today for Messuphetablia Seated on the guard rail with his knees crossed, his farewell remark: I ' m headed for ruins evoked a number of guffaws. Ray Belliveau : — conducts the largest dairy of its kine in America and he at- tributes his success in the lacteal busi- ness to a childhood love affair. Calf-love made me what I am he claims. Ed O ' Brien, fiery, silver-quilled editor of Woman ' s Home Companion, has writ- ten another caustic article against the re- turii of the bustle and young America is behind him in his rebellion. Dave Couhig owns a garage in Beverly and is doing nicely. But football expres- sions keep reminding him of his former glor} ' . Such orders as these still ring in his ears : Clean out that gas line, Take care of that mud guard ; and watch the ball bearings and Dave owns a Ford coach. Jim Lydon, foilsman and dueller a la carte, was lately appointed Coach of the Heidelberg University sabre academy. Jim has his complaint to register, to wit: The boys are cutting too many classes. Elmer Big Bill Rynne, pride of Long- wood and thrice holder of the Wimbleton singles cup, mourns : Tennis has netted me nothing but grief. 1 should have picked another racket. Joe Donovan is considered the cream of the undertaking business. His Byronic misanthropy capped by his familiar iron castor makes him the buries. Bill Nash has become the toast of the North Shore because of his famous bak- ery. Bill saj ' S he ' s well fitted for the job as he went to college for a four year loaf to become well-bread. Now Bill ' s in the dough. Walter Herlihy, foremost wearer of the sock and buskin af this era, recently finished a three weeks ' run of Peter Pan in East Overshoe, Idaho. Walter ad- mitted that the theatre was rather drafty as the hay loft was open and he remarked that frequently passages were drowned out by the braying, neighing, and mooing of the cattle. John J. Griffin, that battle scarred vet- eran of the wrestling mat, snatched the LMc Men, What Now? heavyweight crown from the head of Dan O ' Mahoney last night in a spectacular slugfest. O ' Mahoney is now seventy-two years of age. Bill Giblin, Dean of Vassar, has just published in Harper ' s Weekly his article titled Woman, the Enigma. Many of Bill ' s former classmates have visited him at the college to view its scenic beauty and architectural grandeur. Bob Dufify is conducting a respectable boarding house on Lake Wawkapoormia. On a clear day cries of Pass the pitcher and kindred remarks are quite audible. Henry Ohrenberger has won national recognition for his research in the field of tree surgery and its numerous branches. Henry, take a bough. Frank Eaton has recently returned from one of his well-known hunting ex- peditions in the Congo. It is Frank ' s boast that he brings himself back alive. Bill Fitzsimons is running a laundry business and goes on record as saying that he would enjoy showing his former classmates the inskirts and outskirts of Boston. Dan Holland recently finished sculptur- ing a bust of Mae West. Numbered among his chefs d ' oeuvres is a frieze of A Winter Carnival in Tampa. John !McCurdy, Hollywood ' s premier stuntman, better known as Jeopardy Jack McCurdy, recently crossed Niagara Falls in a tea cup. He next plans to dive from a ninety foot platform into a damp sponge. Frank Short-Wave Galvin, the mod- ern Marconi, recently perfected a noise- less radio for people who would rather listen to the crickets on the hearth. Dan King, feared revenue olficer and the bad man ' s bogey man, last week led one of the most sensational dope raids in modern crime history. Among the seiz- ures were two radio comedians, a non- Scholastic philosopher, and Hncy Long. Ray Funchion has been acting in the capacity of keeper of Danver ' s State Hos- pital. Ui)on being questioned as to the nature of his work, Kay replied succinct- b ' — quote. Nuts, unquote. Frank Maguire has opened a photogra- pher ' s studio on picturesque State Street. When asked if business was good, Frank rejilied in the negative. Chick Feathcrstone, i)reeminent ornith- ologist and bird lover, has unearthed the fossil remains of a pre-historic toothed bird. Chick claims he was endeavoring to hit his golf ball out of a trap on the seventh when he disinterred the bones which lay twenty feet below the surface. Paul Donohoe has joined the jiolice force in Roslindale but gangsters scoff. Paul jilans to stamp out crime with his size 14 brogans. Randy Wise, president of the Super- Colossal Picture Corporation, has released his newest stupendous ])roduction, Temp- est in the Teapot, and already fans are storming the box office to view the rain- ing star of Hollywood, i Iay Showers. Steve Fleming, the immortal bard of Takeoff, recently published his latest brain child, Ode to a Skylight. Steve dis- claims all praise and confesses that the work was paneless and can easily be seen through. Jack Flynn has established a national reputation for his salesmanship. His product. Baby Alice, is a favorite with both mothers and hitchhikers. Bob Quinn, intrepid ace pilot, lost in the heaviest fog in shipping history, found that he had guided his ship, the East Bos- ton ferry, to Liverpool where he received a Lindberghian oration. Roger Kirvan, foreman of the Adaman- tine Diamond Mines and familiarly known as Hard-rock Kieran, recently synthesized a kind of diamond which he facetiously calls the Blarney Stone because it makes an ideal stone for an engagement ring. Al Morris is running a chicken farm and his Plymouth Rocks and Rhode Island Reds are the nation ' s feathered friends. Al is vehemently opposed to the eating of eggs and claims that it is un- ethical since it is just another form of bixth control. Ben Moynahan is still calling signals — he ' s a switchman on the Lackawanna R. R. Ben says it is all due to his training at B. C. where they put him on the right track. Paul Gallivan runs a large cemetery in Russia where business is especially good. Paul lives on the grounds of his campo santo and never complains about noisy neighbors. Ralph Whelan is manager of Need- ham ' s only theatre which he jokingly re- fers to as the House of Usher. Ralph boasts : Aisle show ydu that if money can be had, I ' ll ticket . Joe Kelly, distinguished barrister, was lately appointed to a judgeship by his Ex- cellency, Governor Caput Magnus. Joe is well known for his promulgation of the Statute of Liberty. Harold M. Groden Time (Out of the Running) PARADE OF TIME Bleeding Frontiers Some five centuries ago, a group of peo- ple collected at the Tabard Inn just out- side London on the road to Canterbury. They were preparing to make a pilgrim- age to the Shrine of Saint Thomas there, and agreed to divert themselves by tell- ing stories on the journey. One of the company. Chaucer, chose to record the history of that pilgrimage upon his return. His attempts to chronicle the salient events of those few days were appreciated and well received, and as we prepare our brief history we hope that we too may achieve a modicum of success in our chronicle of the events of our four year pilgrimage through Boston College. The journey of which Chaucer wrote took but a few days, and as we begin our retro- spection we cannot help but think that the four years of which we are writing Am Not At All Discouraycd now seems to have been condensed into a few happy days. The initial distinction enjoyed by the Class of 1935 was that of being the largest ever to matriculate at Boston College. l- our hundred and seventy young men added to the ever-increasing enrollment on University Heights. Soon after our entrance we were instructed in the funda- mentals of a Catholic College education at the Freshman retreat, given by the late Kev. William M. Stinson, S. J. hen vvc became .Seniors and death called l- ' athcr Stinson from us, we still remembered llic words of counsel he had spoken in our first Boston College retreat. After cn)oy ' n i the comiianionshi]! and happy experience of newly formed ac- (juaintances on I- r e s h m a n Day, we watched our Freshman football team dip its colors in defeat after a particularly successful season, losing this final game to the Holy Cross first year men. 13-6. This was one of our first opportimities of witncssinK the brother act of Joe and Bob Ciirran, which was destined in ihe follow- ing years to make itself famous in inter- collegiate football, the former scoring the lone Kaglct tally of this final game. After recovering from our initial siege ol mid-year examinations wc were lion- ored t the Kev. Louis J. Gallagher, S. .1., who addressed us for the first time since his appointment as President of Boston College. He had received this appointment on ew Year ' s Day, succeeding the Rev. James H. Dolan, S. J., who was inade Prefect General of Studies in the New England Province of the Society of Jesus. In this first talk to the underclassinen Father Rector stressed the importance and true value of an education such as that which we had chosen, and we were impressed by the succinct manner in which he summed up our educational ad- vantages. Liberal education, ' ' said Father Rector, develops one ' s character, all of one ' s faculties, and the graduate should be a man of character, for this character is a pattern on the tapestry of life, woven into the wool of his life. On February first Father Rector was inducted into the ofiice of President of the College at a reception in the Library Auditorium. With several of the class of ' 35 taking active part in the various extra curricula activities offered by the college, and Fran- cis R. Liddell having been chosen presi- dent of the class at the annual Spring elections, we completed our first year of college training and went our various ways, wearing the supercilious air which is so evident in the college freshman, but which is surprisingly absent in the senior. Sheer Confidence Our Sojihomore year opened with the completion of a forward step in the ath- letic policies of Boston College, when the new Alumni Field stadium was dedicated at the Loyola gaine, many outstanding dignitaries being present at the impres- sive ceremonies. The Eagles won this first game to be played on Aluinni Field in more than a decade, by a 20 to score, and continued through a highly success- ful season, their most exceptional achieve- ment being a 3 to victory over a favored Fordham teain. The season was closed by a scoreless tie against Holy Cross at Wor- cester, in which ATcKenney ' s men scored seven first downs while not allowing one to the Crusaders. The winter of this same year saw hockey returning to Boston College, as an independent s]iort, with i)romisc of recognition from the .Athletic Associa- tion if it could i)rove itself pojiular. Man. members of the class of 1935 were instru- mental in bringing the winter sport back to where it had reigned supreme in former years. .Among the social activities of the Class was an enjoyable Sojihomore banr|uel held in the Senior Assembly Hall, at which Fr. Frank Sullivan, .S. J., pro- fessor in history and later to be apjiointed l- ' aciilty Director of .Athletics, was guest speaker. The .Sophomore Prom was most successful inidcr the cajiable direction of Eugene Donaldson. In the field of extra curricula activities the members of 1935 were parlicularly successful, the Mar(|Uetle Debaling So- ciety prospering under John J. Murphy and Raymond L. Belliveati. Presidents of the .Society for the first and second terms, respectively. .Several members of the Class had joined the musical clubs, and par- licularly on The Heights were memliers of 1935 holding forth. In the appoint- ments of the new Managing Board, made in the .Spring of our .Sophomore year, four members of the Class were honored with editorships for the coming scholas- tic year. On the varsity baseball team Dave Con- cannon and Bob Curran were bolstering the attack and the defense, and Frank McCrehan ' s horsehide hawks finished a grand season by sinking the charges of Jack Barry of Holy Cross in two succes- sive games, after dropping the first game of the three game series at Worcester. I )ave Concannon was credited with win- ning the first of the two Eagle victories when he brought in the deciding marker with a stinging extra-inning triple in the game played at Alumni Field. On the track also were Sophomores making bids for varsity fame, Frank Eaton, John Joyce and Dave Couhig scoring many valuable ])oints for Jack Ryder ' s runners and weight heavers. What Next? Shortly after we returned to school for our third year we made our Junior re- treat, with Rev. William J. Murphy, S. J., acting as retreat master. ; ,• 1 I xt. U-d 7,i ' ,• I ' illci ( )n the gridiron the Eagles enjoyed iluir best season since the Eastern Cham- pionship year of 1928. But one defeat was suffered, and that at the hands of a heavy Fordhain team at the New York Polo Grounds. I isted among the Maroon and Gold victims were Centre, Georgetown, Boston University, Western Maryland and Villanova, the latter victory living the first scored over the Wildcats from Penn- sylvania since 1926. And the climax of this glorious season came when Joe Mc- Kenney ' s squad knocked a favored Holy Cross Crusader off his horse before a record crowd at .Alumni F ' ield. winning in the final period by a 13 to 9 score. Henry Ohrenberger, Joe Curran, Bob Curran, Ben .Moynahan and Dave Couhig contributed miicli to the success of the season, and the latter was honored by being elected captain for the coming year. Under the direction of Raymond L. Belliveati an l I )aniel Holland, co-chair- man, a successful Junior Week was (Ciiiiliiiucd on paijc 6) TiMK (On the Wane) PARADE (broken up) education SUCH AS V IT IS {Coiiliinicd front -i i i ' 5) climaxed by a siieclacular iiromenade in the beautiful Main Dining Room of the Hotel Statler, with the famous Dorsty Brothers orchestra supplying the music. Many Juniors contributed to the strength of the winter and spring sports teams, with Captain Ray Funchion, Randy Wise and Frank Liddell bolstering the hockey sextet, and Charlie Callahan, Bob Curran, Dave Concannon and Bob Duffy starring for Frank McCrchan ' s nine. And on the track Ben Moynahan, Dave Cou- hig and John Joyce were picking up rnany valuablepoints for the Maroon and Gold. Forensic fields were also conquered by members of the class of 1935, with Grover J. Cronin, Jr., elected to the Presidency of the Fulton Debating Society for the first term of the following year. Musical- ly the class was not without admirable representation in the orchestra and glee club, and in the Dramatic Association the class was also represented, foremost among whom was Walter F. Herlihy, later chosen president of the association. After his election for the third suc- cessive year as President of the Class, Frank lliddcll aw arded the appointment of Editor of the Sub Turri to Raymond L. Belliveau, whose work on The Heights and in the debating circles had placed him in an enviable position as one of the outstanding members of the Class of 1933. Back to Privacy As we look back on this final year of our college careers, we are saddened by the thought that during that year every man who ever was connected with Boston College lost a true friend and counsellor. Shortly after we had returned from our Christmas holidays we were shocked to learn of the sudden death of Father Pat- rick J. McHugh, S. J., for fifteen years Dean of Boston College and the personal friend of every man who attended the college during those fifteen years. As the last Senior class to come under his treas- ured guidance we shall ever be proud and grateful that we had the opportunity to associate with Father McHugh before he was called to God. Two more Jesuit Fathers were taken from us bv death in this past year. Rev. John M. Coughlan, S. J., for eight years a chaplain at Boston College, and Rev. William M. Stinson. S. J., for eleven years the college Librarian ; both died after short illnesses. The surprise of the athletic year came shortly after the football team had been submerged in a sea of mud and rain on Alumni Field by Holy Cross in the sea- son ' s finale by a 7 to 2 score. Genial Joe McKenney announced his acceptance of the post of Assistant Director of Physical (Continued on l age 17) lUSi HL COLLEGEMAN lieing a study of its genus and species, with a brief discussion as to its evolu- tion, deportment, and habits. 1. The first type under consideration is labeled Freshman. Of course there are other names which are indiscriminately used, but gentlemanly scruples forbid us from setting them down here. This species is easily recognized liy its closely-cropped cranium, flamboyant neck-pieces, and stove-pipe trousers. W hile it has cars, these are a useless part of the being, since they are rarely employed, the mouth do- ing most of the work . . . whether it be on politics, sports, or someone else ' s lunch. As the Freshman jirogresses in academic life, it invariably blossoms forth with a moustache. This gives it a distinguished look, and is generally an improvement upon the look with which it was endowed bv Alother Nature. The Freshman is a From the Sublime- U ' c Have Been IJeioused nocturnal animal. It roosts in classrooms and sleeps throughout the day. Night finds it at large in some gayly-festooned ball- room, with someone else ' s tux and some- one else ' s sister. Such, then, are the pecularities of the Freshman, before evo- lution transforms it into a . . . 2. Sophomore, the second species of the genus, CoUegeman. In appearance it is somewhat akin to the Freshman. Its rai- ment is varied, consisting of an odd coat and trousers or odd trousers and a coat. When it is fully arrayed in this queer ves- ture, one would not hesitate to plant corn around it. While its face is absolutely de- void of any sign of intelligence, it pos- sesses a large sconce which is used chiefly for support of the ears. These ears, by the way, are remarkable, inasmuch as one of them can harken to the words of the professor while the other picks up any stray bits of gossip that may! be floating about the classroom. It also has the un- fortunate habit of daily lapsing into a bad case of the jitters, which generally lasts from the 9:30 bell until dismissal. Possi- bly this debility is due to the fact that the Sophomore smokes an odious incinerator better known as a pipe. This is supposed to give it that savoir-faire attitude. In the French this idiom signifies to know what to do. ' ' (If the Sophomore knew what to do he would get rid of that pipe.) The Sophomore stays at home nights. You can guess at whose home, though. Suffice it to say that the Sophomore lives on dates. {Continued 0)i page 7) ALLSTON HAND LAUNDRY 63 Harvard Ave. AUston, Mass. «  Telephone STAdium 0454 The Select Laundry Operated Exclusively by Women Student Work a Speciality JOHN MANNING INC.

As the evolution continues, we find the next division, known as the Junior, a more mature species of Collegeman. Its hair is well-groomed, what there is of it. Its suits are worn well, and well-worn. It possesses a rattling good brain, well trained in the classics, sciences, Rocking- ham, and nigger pool numbers. The Jun- ior has an economic nature. It smokes not a pipe, neither does it purchase cigarettes. It borrows them from its classmates. The Junior is an energetic animal. It is a great organizer, especial- ly of crap games, football parlays, et cetera and so forth. It patronizes various clubs, among which are the Business Club, Canadian Club, and Club Sandwich. Words cannot be found to describe its suave manner among the gens de societe. That is, not if one wishes to confine one ' s self to the vocabulary of a gentleman. True it is, that you can always tell a Junior (but you can ' t tell him much). Tlir I ' ridc of llw Masses What No Cou ' s? The final, and most nearly perfect species is the Senior. This word generally connotes gray hairs. Some Seniors, it is true, possess them ; others comb their hair with a towel. However, the word Senior, in the sense meant by us, suggests vis- dom. The Senior is indeed a wise animal. It has an answer to even the inost ab- struse questions. The answer can usually be summed up in two words, Oh Yeah ? . The Senior is always immaculately groomed. Its suits (both of them) are made to order . . . ten dollars an order, with two pair of trousers and a whistle thrown in for good measure. It is a sober, obstrusivc tyi)e, speaking only at the ]iropcr time, and then with an accent un- like any other. In a tu.Ncdo, the Senior does not look like a clothing-store dum- my. Let ' s save space and eliminate the two words clothing, and store. There arc no steps in the terpsichorean art of which the Senior is not a master. His dancing is superb.

TiMK (1-25— Lord Bless If) PEOPLE {As Is and Seldom Known) IT ' S A GIFT Fully cognizant of llic gravity and solemnity of this occasion, 1 have been commissioned to hestow on several of my esteemed classmates certain gifts which, though exceedingly aproijos, nevertheless are most inadequate for their just deserts. Had I the touch of a Midas, or the re- sources of Croesus, a suflicient recom- pense might be made to those worthy sons for their various contributions. Inimitable offerings in the form of personalities, od- dities, and actions which they have dis- played in our sundry forms of e.xtra-cur- ricular activities. But being an ordinary person unfor- tunately bereft of momentary bulk and mystical powers, 1 must perform my task without flourish or fanfare, but not be- fore advancing due apology for anything that is even suggestively ofl ' cnsive. With- out further ado, I hereby bequeath. Frank Liddcll — During the four years we have been here, Kiddo, I have wit- nessed without offering any criticism your occasional lack of memory, especially concerning addresses. Consequently, 1 wish to present you with this address book for the sole purpose of keeping in correct order the names and addresses of your friends, so that you will not suffer again the embarrasment such as j ' ou ex- perienced on our last trip to New York. Ben Xloynahan — Of you, my friend, I feel that we have been sadly neglectful. We realize, perhaps too late, you have been in our midst for four years, enjoy- ing magnificent, beauteous and historical Boston. But alas, until now we have over- looked the most important feature of our fair city — take 3 ' e and eat, for these are our Boston baked beans. John Kenney — I think of you with every crash I see, for, then, my thoughts slip back to our sophomore year when j ' ou graciously attempted to move the Tower Building toward the Reservoir with that high-powered vehicle j ' OU once manipulated. Should you again operate that contraption on these grounds, by all means wear these glasses to aid you i n discerning College Road from the Tower Building. Raymond Funchion — Only too well do I recall our trip to New York when I narrowly escaped pneumonia on the boat by complying with your lunatical desire Won It In A Raffle Right On Timc for more fresh air. Take this fan, Ray, and may the daj ' never come that you will have to endure suffocation. Ralph Whelan — With this most trivial, but most appropriate gift, I solemnly be- seech and command that you quit yourself from uttering that monotonous and oft- repealed gift with which you interrupted my concentrations during Ethics, What time is it, Randy? Alay this watch erase forever that phrase from 3 ' our vocabulary. Alfred Volante — Realizing, Buff, that overpowering desire, and I might even be so bold to say passion, for playing, and upkeeping also, the slot machines in the lunchroom, may I offer you this miniature model so that, in your leisure moments, the fond memories of your chief cur- ricular activity may renew your zeal in this diversion. Joseph Curran — During your courage- ous and stellar career as a gridiron hero, your endeavors were impeded by a casul- ty which occurred in the Springfield game. When that knee was injured. Jack Ryder was deprived of his nimblest kangaroo. I present 3 ' ou with these springs as an aid on accomplishing higher and longer leaps. Al Gianelli — To you, my dear Al, I wish to give this gift for which you will be eternally grateful. Something to smoth- er the cry of ' ' Gianelli which has echoed in these halls for four years. I give you some — cotton. John Franey — In the course of our studies here at the Heights, many fam- ous rnen have been called to our atten- tion, but to you, John, this mattered little. For you, there was just one who was worthy of consideration, and it is his life story which I now offer you. May Strangler Lewis continue to be your ideal. Arthur McSweeney — Physics has taught us that gas makes it possible for balloons to rise in the air. Take this anchor. Art, and please never let go. For the life of me, I do not know what is keeping you down. Elmer Rynne — Oh Elmer, how horrible are the pangs of starvation I As the prom- ise of water gladdens the heart of the thirsty wanderer of the desert, so may the promise of gustatory pleasure gladden you. Keep this Statler menu, as the food of your thoughts. Robert Curran — Remembering the many limes, 1 have seen your swollen proboscis, and, as a move in liehalf of Catholic Ac- tion, that you may not offend against what is truly aesthetic, accept this nose 1, ' uard and take heed to keep your snozzle Irom trouble. Raymond Belliveau — Your hair, my friend, has always been a source of great .•ulmiration to me. Both ujiper and lower classmates have always greatly admired . our curly locks. That you may maintain the circular bristles on your head, accept these curlers and continue to edify. Edward O ' Brien — The backbone of our nation is its builders and constructive ihinkers. Both the accomplishments of the pen and the builder ' s artistic creations must all be laid on a firm foundation. As man ' s buildings tower ever higher, so man ' s imagination soars ever wider. My intention is to encourage you in your en- deavors, but in such a way that they may ]irove to be inore beneficial to you and mankind. Therefore, here is this trowel and mortar. Lay your foundation. Charles Featherstone — Since you, my friend, have for the past few years en- countered so many difficulties in obtaining transi)ortation to and from Wellesley, I jiresent you with this thumb that it may aid and encourage you in the great work you have established and are now carry- ing on. Harold Groden — Hank, I confess to ' ou, for four years I have secretly searched your pockets, and have often stared at you in anticipation of seeing you comb your hair. With this comb, af- ford me the consolation of seeing you part your hair. Henry Ohrenberger — There are many gifts that the grads could shower on you, but for once let us be practical. My aim now is to aid you in your medical career. Take this kitten, disect the poor dear but stay away from me. David Couhig — Among our opponents, the consensus of opinion appears to be that, as a football player, you would make a very good bogey man. I, there- fore, present you this mask in order that, each Fall, you may continue to intimidate the opponents of Boston College. Steven Fleming — In behalf of myself and the members of the class of 1935, I wish to present to you this small gift, which is in the nature of an apology for {Continued on page 19) We Got Samples ( ot On) Time (if Below) 5 1 sj ST. .AND 7TH AVE .

Oh, no, if you hold that it leads right back into sceiilicism. What of that? Then, we ' d have to start the whole book over again.

I ilun ' t rcnii-nibiT imicli about my infant days. Kolks said 1 was a most extraordinary young- ster. I took first prize at a baby show once, but the judges caught me. During primary school, 1 always stood at the head of the class. I was the only lad that won this honorary position — and the conical hat that accomiianicd it. My High School Days. . s I look back on the four memorable years spent in High School, I am stirred with an in- definable emotion. Maybe it ' s that liverwurst sandwich I ate an hour ago. I vividly remember my High School debut. How I cried when they sheared oflt the golden locks of which I was so proud. With my heart and one of my father ' s best cigars in my mouth. I entered the great place of learning. Every day there was a red letter day. After two years of toil, I donned my first pair of long trousers. Do you wonder that I wipe away a tear from these eyes at their re- membrance? I ' m still wearing those trousers. The last two years of High School sped through for me like moths through the Hannel underwear of Time. It was due to my teacliers that I dedcided on further study. Their fiery tributes as to my intelligence and character in- spired me to attend college. I go to College. It was in September of 1931 that I began my career at Boston College. At first I fitted the general scheme of things like last year ' s toupee on the hall bannister. Gradually I became or- iented. The students were very fraternal and made things easy for me — as long as I had cigarettes. They probably realized my superior ability, the professors. For on countless occa- sions I took special examinations. I graduate. Now I face that world with my degree. With determination I grind my teeth — very gently though. You see, they ' re not paid for yet. I pick myself up off the front steps.. Will you forgive me a last lingering glance at the Gothic Spires, dim corridors, warm classrooms, the museum, and the lunchroom? Why was it that I could never tell the difference between the last two men- tioned? It was just the distinction between a price tag and a label. The poignant memory of hours spent with the Classics — the hours spent in the study of the drama (cf. the Met, Keith ' s, and points west) — all these recur to me. I am alone with the memory of my college achievements. At least. I ' m alone. Yesterday ' s happenings are as fresh as a homemade doughnut. There was the taking of pictures and their distribvition. Friends said they would hang them in their homes — on the door to scare away the wolf. There was the signing of year books, the touching handshakes. I was touched so much, I ' m broke. Yes, they have graduated me — in cap and gown — with a degree — and with the world before me as mysterious as the inside of a motorman ' s glove. Yet I am undaunted. I say farewell to Boston College, with that time honored proverb ringing in mine ears: Aien Aristuein. I wish 1 knew what it means! H. F. Patronize Our Advertisers HEALTH is the best insurance.

For, behold How dexterously we wield The steel of thought; bearing the lithic shield You fashioned from philosophy. Observe, again : The muses yield .■nd garment us in Tyrian silk and gold. In you, despair is futile as fire is in a lake. We only take. Instruct us in the hidden essence of your being That renders you serene and placid, see- ing Your generous Iilessings regretted or for- gotten. The oak you i Ianted long ago is black- ened, rotten. But you walk forth to plant another In strength, with tearless eyes. Invincible mother. Let us not merely take. In the twilight time, When dusk has settled down on life Under the formality of treachery and crime ; Let us not rend our hearts with anguish. Or dissipate our strength with strife. Nor let us languish. But let us rebuild the broken town And raise again the shrine torn down. Out of the grief of men betrayed, Let the foundation stone be laid Of a minor universe where men Can dare believe and trust again. Let us go singly to the task : Forfend that anyone should ask VNhat good to friend his neighbor wills But his own body put between the thills. Let us not wonder: Does he deceive? But live so that someone may believe That men courageously stand today In honor, in the ancient way ; That someone may be saved the shame Of finding, in the ambitious name Of man, no safeguard from deceit. The traitor, liar and the cheat. And let us treasure, undisgusted. The splendour gleaming, still unrusted. Of you — receiving nothing — who still hel|p The weeping child, tin- wbiiiiiig wlu-lp.

During his four years as a quarterback under the late Major Frank Cavanaugh he ranked with the best in the country, and as head coach of football he raised the standard of Boston College teams by his sterling example as a sportsman and a gentleman, . fter scores of applicants for the position had been considered, John K. McNamara. Joe ' s classmate and team- mate, and assistant coach for the past two years, was appointed to the position of head coach. Socially this final year was most attrac- tive. .- fter three successful football re- ceiitions were tendered visiting teams, the Philomatheia Club held its annual Senior Ball in honor of the Senior Class ; and the class is grateful to the ladies of the club for their cooperation and zeal in tendering the most successful ball e er held in honor of a graduating class. Fran- cis J. McLaughlin was chairman of the event. Precedent was broken when another formal was held some time later in the . Iain Dining Room of the Hotel Statler, and this too, under the chairmanship of Francis T. Eaton, was colorful, enjoyable and financially beneficial to the class. The Fulton 1 lebating Society, with Grover J. Cronin, Jr., and Joseph C. Ryan, respectively, occupying the President ' s chair, were particularly successful in the matter of forensic victories, numbering among their victims the debating teams from Brown. University of ' ermont, I lartmouth. Providence and Rutgers. On the basis of its record during the two [ revious years the hockey team was recognized as a major athletic team at Boston College for the first time since it was dropped, and the sextet, under the guidance of coach John R. Kelly, came through admirably, winning its first six games and scoring victories over Brown, Northeastern, Boston University, Dart- mouth and Colgate. The Musical Clubs, with .-Xlfrcd C. Giannelli as President, rendered concerts to many a|iprccialive audiences during the past few months, and the Dramatic . s.sociation, with Walter !• . Herlihy as President, have jiresentcd one i)roduction to receptive audiences at the Repertory Theatre, and are preparing for two more short presentations. Scholaslically, athletically, socially, fo- rensically, dramatically, musically and journalistically, the Class of 19.1S has been most fortunate and successful.

Too well do I know that the other members of the Class and I have never been able lo jieruse with diligence and pleasure your jioetic mas- terpieces. But with great troulile and e.x- jiense, 1 have managed lo secure the name of a gentleman who has often, and with I)lcasurc, read your poetry. Here is the card of Mr. Luigio O. Chcckanowski of the L ' niversily of California in California. William Giblin — This slight, but sincere token of my interest in you will .serve, I hope, lo allay the anxiety which your fashion has caused me. I trust that these weights will aid in bringing the cuffs of your pants, which for a long time have been waving about your knees, down In your shoes. Paul Donohoe — To you I bei|iualli ibis songsheet of popular verses, that you niiiy fervently and emotionally render your sweet silvery tones lo your iinapprecia- tive audiences. May the lyric strains en- closed within aid in increasing your popu- in f ' ligc lU) larity and, some day, win for you the op- portunity to compete in Scott ' s Amateur show. Jack Flynn — There are really many gifts which I could present you, Jack, and all benefiting. But I feel that none of these could express the nature of your general activities here at the Heights as well as this sculptor ' s tool. It is the earn- est desire of all of us that you enjoy it lo great advantage after graduation, as you have done during the past four years. Joseph DeYeso — For you, little Joe, the task of selecting a gift proved most dif- ficult. I am well aware, as are the other members of the class of ' iS, that you have been endowed with an abundance of in- telligence and iiersonality, Despite the faci that you have not reached great beights physically, yet these virtues of yoin-s (uersliadow those of giants. In or- der that ynti may continue to attain the higher things in life. I trust that these stills will serve that end.
