Thou, Who makest eloquent the tongue of the dumb, instruct our tongues and pour into our lips the grace of Thy blessing.

POWERS Vice-President FRESHMAN A historian, to be believed, must analyze his subject without emotion, without prej- udice, purely objectively. In that light we have studied the Class of 1940; we have re- marked their four years as one unit, and we have concluded that in September, 1936, when school was officially opened, the Freshman Class consisted of the greatest assemblage of mental, social, and physical supermen ever collected at one time. Four hundred and fifty-eight of us had been personally interviewed by Father Archdeacon, who assured us that he was edified with our entrance examinations and hoped that we would prove loyal to our class. Before formally starting classes, we were asked by the genial Mr. Francis Campbell, who was also a Freshman in his new posi- tion as Registrar, to answer the questions found on five volumes of information cards. In retrospect, we can appreciate that this marathon writing was merely an introduc- tion to the blue book specials, which were to confront us during the four years fol- lowing. The first day of school was one of con- fusion, astonishment, and revelation. Na- turally, there was difficulty in finding just where the Tower Building was situated, and whether or not the elevators to the va- rious floors were running. When the pro- fessor appointed one of our number class beadle, a gasp of sympathy was let loose for the unfortunate youth by those of us who were uninitiated to the Jesuit vernac- ular. But our sympathy was in vain, for the beadle may now be defined as one whose name begins with A, who is charged with the task of supplying chalk, mite boxes, and Americas. By the time the fog of confusion lifted, we were prepared to appreciate more clearly the beauty of the buildings and the grounds. As we recall our first impression of the upper rotunda, we realize that we had ample reason to feel awed, for one could not absorb nor understand all that was depicted before us by statue and painting, simply by casually glancing at the works of art. The chimes too, were a source of satisfaction, especially to those of us who lacked a watch. The first meeting of this great group of young men, probably the greatest collec- tion ever assembled, took place a few weeks after our entrance into Gothic Am - erica. This was the occasion of the intro- IHistor PATRICK A. RAFFERTY Treasurer EDWARD M. GREELEY Secretary duction of the class to the Very Reverend Louis J. Gallagher, S.J., the esteemed pres- ident of the College. Fr. Gallagher greeted us warmly and endeared himself to each one of us. He told us of the great deeds ex- pected of us as Boston College men. We were sure that great deeds were expected of us when Dean Maxwell clearly, suc- cinctly — but oh so definitely — explained the academic reguirements to which we must conform. The great deeds partook more of the nature of feats, almost impos- sible to do. Somehow we managed to do them — how, we still do not know. Truly, now we were men of Boston Col- lege and we took time out to learn the col- lege songs, the cheers, the names of the football players. Then there followed days with Cicero, with Snyder and Martin, with the beautiful or, for those enrolled in a scientific course, an intense workout in the laboratory. A welcome relief appeared in the form of an annual retreat delivered by the Reverend William J. Murphy, S.J., then Prefect General of Studies of New England, with whom we were to become more close- ly associated in Senior. Our football team under Frank Murdock rolled along a victorious path, subduing all but a surprisingly strong Brown team, who held us to a tie. We entered the Holy Cross Freshman game undefeated and came out — still undefeated. Ananis, Schwortzer and Company showed well-trained ability and a world of spirit with a clean 19-6 victory. Naturally, there had to be a celebration — and what a celebration! Never has a Bos- ton College activity attracted as large a proportion of the class. Our guests of honor included the visiting Purple team. Bill Cun- ningham, whose stories of his trip to Ger- many are still remembered, and that digni- fied gentleman from the Italian Embassy, whose tales of war, told in broken English, caused a great deal of embarrassment especially among the Scholastics. Our Class officers, who were elected to hold the reins of government for the rest of the year, were announced; the names of Charlie Carroll and Bill Joy led the rest. There will be little disagreement when we say that the Freshman Banquet was the most enjoyable social event held by our class. The credit belongs entirely to Father Archdeacon, who did not cease until he achieved one hundred per cent attendance — then he was edified with our showing. We lost a spirited organizer and efficient director when our Dean was transferred to the Rectorate of Boston College High. Longwood Towers was the site of the pre- lenten social, which served as a step to that very formal, very strict Freshman Prom at the Statler — an occasion when stu- dents became socialites — when tuxes and tails replaced trousers and sweaters. Paul Tondorf was Chairman of the Event — Frank Daley, in person, was the Pied Piper. For the most of us who had stepped from high school to college, this was the first strictly formal affair. We can now confess that it was rather trying; that although the music was rhythmic, the floor smooth, and the girl cooperative, still inexperience and lack of confidence depressed our usual careless abandon. But we proved ourselves equal to the occasion. We hid our nervous- ness with deceitful nonchalance; we re- solved to be prepared for the next formal by learning another step to complement the one to the left and two to the right. At four o ' clock that morning, the social season had definitely come to a close. The following week threats of exams rose to haunt us. Much boning — exams — worry — relief — fond farewells and promises to meet during the summer — the Freshman Year had ended. Where did the year go? SOPHOMORE The summer of 1937 saw little change in the administration of Boston College. There were still information cards to be filled, bills to be paid, and classes to be found. But we soon learned that there was a new energetic force at work. The office of Stu- dent Counsellor had been made into a full- time position, and Father Richard Rooney was the happy choice. He brought with him the spirit and enthusiasm of Father Arch- deacon; his publication, the King ' s Herald, soon became one of the most pop- ular sheets on the campus. In his office one could, at any time, go to Confession or bor- row a cigarette. With Father Rooney as Moderator and John Dacey as Prefect, the Sophomore Sodality increased its member- ship and its influence and activity. The Sunday before Christmas was set aside as Mother ' s Day, when mothers were given the opportunity to see that College meant more than studies and dances. A strong active Sodality is a necessity for a Cath- olic College. To Fathers Rooney and Coyne we extend our gratitude for showing us how and why we should be faithful so- dalists. It caused our particular class great con- cern when we learned that one of our Freshman professors, Dr. Herman von Walde-Waldegg, had not been heard from since his explorations in South America. But our fears were dispelled when it was revealed that the German anthr opologist and scientist was delayed only for a short time. We have never learned why his mu- seum near the college was alloted to the Glee Club for their rehearsals. Demosthenes, the rules of rhetoric, and Horace were our main concern until we temporarily laid aside our books to open our minds to a spiritual message delivered by the Reverend Frederick J. McCarten, S.J. We grew to look forward with anticipa- tion to our annual retreats, when new per- spectives were offered us, when the truth presented in a clear manner gave us new evaluations. Much was expected of the Dobie ma- chine, which had defeated the Cross 13-12 the year previous. We expected that with the addition of our mighty potent Fresh- man wagon, the varsity team would again triumph, but such was not the case. The team, steady though unspectacular bowed before a superior opponent, and we tasted the bitterness of defeat. Our sorrow was alleviated somewhat by a sparkling Christmas Social wherein we made merry with cider and doughnuts. At this time we must give credit to Dick Pow- ers, President of the Class, for a most suc- cessful social season. His appointment of a Banquet Committee was democratically approved by the President ' s Council, and the Committee immediately went to work to offer a banquet which would rival that of Freshman. In the middle of February, the Class convened to enjoy a satisfying dinner followed by an interesting talk de- livered by Austen Lake about his trip to Ireland. Our old friend. Father Tom Feeney was there to defend himself and the Jesuits against the charge of being plutocrats. The evening was climaxed by Sherman Rogan ' s thrilling and dramatic rendition of The Face on the Barroom Floor. The week of February the eighteenth marked a hectic period for many members of the Class who took part in events which commemorated the seventy-fifth anniver- sary of the College. Shortly afterwards, our class orator, Paul Greeley, won the Gargan Memorial Medal, which is annually awarded to the best debater in the Mar- quette. Then came the time for planning, pre- paring, and paying for the Prom. We were experienced men now; we knew what we wanted — just a good time at the minimum of expense. Connie McGrath was ap- pointed Chairman, aided and abetted by the whole class as his committee. April twentieth was the date, Hotel Somerset the place, and Artie Shaw the attraction. Like Cardinal Pacelli, Mr. Shaw rose to the top of his profession after paying Boston Col- lege a visit. Those of us who considered our partner ' s dainty toes more restful than a polished floor enjoyed ourselves by watching the contor tions of the drummer, who unemotionally beat it out, while he kept time by masticating a wad of semi- transparent viscid substance that exudes from certain trees and shrubs. Then for the last time we prepared Latin and Greek translations, rules of rhetoric, etc., for the days that no longer held terror — the finals. A few of the more intellectual members resigned from college to enroll in Saint John ' s Seminary. Though we have missed such men as Bill Granville, Neil Harrington, Cy Tolland, and John Coffey, we know that when they shall be ordained, we will be proud that they were once our classmates. GEORGE V. GALLAGHER. JUNIOR Everybody knew we were juniors. Eagerly they awaited us. Academies threw open their arms to embrace us. Philosophy welcomed us. Classes started as usual in middle Sep- tember — they have a habit of starting very punctually, although there never seems to be an end to them. Yet we were scarcely back in school, our summer tans were still in the first process of fading, when Mother Nature and the Fates conspired to give us a little extra vacation: the great hurricane struck these parts. For which we were thankful, except that Mother Nature and the Fates were a little peremptory, in send- ing us this benefice. It would have been so much nicer in November! When every- thing was back in stride once more, an- other relief from classes came with our An- nual Retreat. This retreat was ably given by Father Thomas A. Fay, S.J., who before the end of the year was to become quite well known to us — especially when the balmy breezes and warm sun of April make the reservoir shores such a nice place to loll. One of the features of this year was the Temple trip, a landmark in Boston College history. No longer will the Alumni make us envious by telling us of the Fordham trips. We guess we can tell them a thing or two now. Why, when we got through, Philadel- phia considered American Legion conven- tions as old ladies ' Sunday School classes. We prescind from the question of New York. But, before going any further, it be- hooves us to mention in passing, the Gold Key Society, representatives of the leaders of the Junior Class: Connie McGrath, John Mackin and Richard Daley were elected President, Vice-President, and Secretary- Treasurer, respectively. So much for the Gold Key. They had such pretty charms! This was also the year that Indiana Uni- versity brought its 137 high-stepping, root- in ' -tootin ' bandsmen to Boston — who showed Boston a thing or two in artistry and music! It was also the year of the inau- guration of night football and ladies ' day in B. C. football. Our social season opened with an Under- the-Tower Dance on December 7 — and promptly closed until Junior Week. But Junior Week more than made up for the lack of other activities. This was our big time and we were going to make the most of it. We did! The Week started with Com- munion Breakfast, at which a notable ora- tion was delivered bv Fr. Maginnis of Wes- ton College. Our Class favorite — Fr. Thomas Feeney, S.J., — entertained us with a recitation of a few of his poems, — de- claimed with finesse and gusto. Next was the smoker, at which everybody sat around and had a good time. Tuesday of Junior Week saw the Juniors holding class in Nor- wood, where the finest, funniest and most entertaining roller skating party of the epoch was held. Wednesday night — Life Begins with Forty a hilarious play, sup- posedly fictitious, but, like universals, with a basis in reality. Thursday was Field Day — and it was a field day, a mixture of Mar- di Gras, Winter Carnival and May Day. Do you remember the greased pig and the fish ? Last and foremost in our memories, the Junior Prom and mystery-man Del Courtney with his music sweet, hot and sweet-hot. What a time! But do not let us forget that charming complement to Junior Week, the Junior Pic, ably edited by Joe McKenney and his staff — although when we got it it was sort of a melody in Three- Quarter Time. Oh well, you can ' t have ev- erything. All this time the search of the authorities had been carried into the highways and byways of American colleges for a capable head coach. The search ended with the signing of Frank Leahy of Fordham, guon- dam Rockne student. This move was greeted with bewildered applause. But his geniality, determination, and wit soon won our confidence and we trustingly put our football future in his hands. We have never regretted it. The Athletic Association also gave us another start in the right direction with the signing of Freddy Maguire as baseball coach. This was the year that saw the 62nd con- secutive Shakespearean drama staged by the B. C. Dramatic Society. Out of the dust came the little-known Timon of Athens. The Dramatic Society followed up with the production of Emmett Lavery ' s Second Spring, in which the Society reached its greatest triumph of all time for sheer artis- try and excellence. Fr. Fay, our retreat master, now returned to us as Dean of Men, to fill the vacancy caused by the separation of the offices of Athletic Director and Dean of Men. Our boys quickly made him adept at his office by the well-known methods. This year also saw the creation of the Boston College chapter of the national Jesuit honor society, the Alpha Sigma Nu. Eight of our men were elected to this fra- ternity, because they were outstanding in the three required virtues voiced in the motto of the Alpha Sigma Nu — Service, Loyalty and Scholarship. Boston College was also admitted into the Marine Reserve and many of our stalwart classmates are included among the rolls of the Marines. We were all very much pleased at the elevation to the Papacy of Boston College ' s Friend, Eugenio Cardinal Pacelli, of whom all Boston College men are ardent ad- mirers, and to whom we will be ever grate- ful for the benefices he gave us, — espe- cially the two days ' freedom. Our journalistic star, Art Cullen, received his reward (?) for services rendered when he was elevated to editor-in-chief of the Heights, the college newspaper. Another classmate, the late Wendell Turley, was elected editor-in-chief of the Stylus. Another innovation which we as Juniors saw, was the establishment of a college constabulary in the person of Officer Ma- lachy McGrath, to whom many thanks for those cute arrows. And, aside from the orals, which we all approached tremblingly and which most of us left triumphantly, this is the history of the Junior Year of the Class of 1940, the greatest, most intelligent group of super- men, as we have said, ever to be as- sembled. SENIOR And then we were Seniors. On our re- turn, many changes had taken place. Fr. McGarry had been transferred and Fr. Murphy had been appointed to succeed to the Presidency. Another change occurred in the office of the Dean, where our esteemed Father Maxwell was supplanted by Dean Long. In class politics. Bill Joy was the new president. Frank Leahy inaugurated the Rockne system in football, with its razzle-dazzle, and a very successful season it was — with B. C. nationally acclaimed for the first time in a dozen years. But our team was so good that we were chosen to play in the Cotton Bowl game at Dallas, against Clemson College. B. C. at last was back into big time football. Who will ever forget the scare the flu epidemic gave us, the monster send-off rally, the long trip south, the festival at Dallas, the reception at the station of our proud, though defeated, warriors? The foremost senior group is, of course, the Cross and Crown Society. The member- ship this year included the outstanding se- niors both scholastically and extra-curri- cularly. It showed its progressiveness in the new charms it adopted — more colorful, more significant. In December this group staged its annual ball, which, by custom, was by invitation only, and which was a tremendous success. In January, the ladies of the B. C. Auxi- liary — the Philomathia Club — gave to Bos- ton College seniors the classiest, swankiest affair of their four years of social activity, the Philomathia Ball. Most of the Senior Class was present, and from all reports a swell time was had. Then the midyears, and everything else faded from sight as activity centered upon preparation for them. With return to classes after the semester holidays, the eyes and attention of the seniors were on March 1, date for submission of theses. A month of intense labor was put in, so great that March 1 found us wild-eyed and haggard. The freshmen were so scared that every time they saw one of us coming, they would duck. When the resuhs of the poll to determine the mosts and bests of the class were published, a great hue and cry was raised by the cohorts of Dick Harrison, who had been defeated by Gerry Converse. In an attempt to conciliate the warring factions. Editor Frank Ahearn announced a beauty contest to be held at the Sub Turri dance under the direction of John O ' Donnell and committee. At once other disillusioned Casanovas announced their candidacies for the co- veted honor. When the night of competi- tion arrived, the stage was crowded with perspiring but confident contestants. Quin- cy ' s gift to pulchritude, John Daley, was at- tired as a man about town, tails and all; the fighting marine, Jim Ryder, had pressed his uniform; Ted Finnerty carried a cane; Gerry Converse was in tennis shirt; shy Dick Harrison refused to bother Larry Ken- ney for his jersey but looked sweet and strong all the same; Bill Gilligan covered his orange rompers with a fighter ' s bath- robe and a Turkish towel; Paul Tondorf, Master of the Beagle Hunt Club, was escorted by Artist, his mighty mastiff. Since Doctor Joe Joseph was charged with the task of reading the applause meter, the honesty of the contest was never in doubt. Gradually the aspirants were eli- minated; at length the winner was an- nounced amid the applause of the stu- dents, but to the disappointment of their guests. Artist wagged his tail in appre- ciation and was adopted as class mascot. So enjoyable was the dance that Dean Long prolonged the time limit for dancing, enabling us to have thirty more minutes of fun and frolic. We think we might take time out, at this occasion, to give a regular cheer for the Dean for his splendid co- operation in all our activities. Now that those things that have actually happened have treated in this history, it is only with the most profuse apologies that we pass on to the treatment of those things which the rest of the year will bring. Immediately after the orals, there will be the Annual Senior Retreat. This will not only give us a well-needed rest at the end of four intense years of study and mental anguish, it will also give us the spiritual uplift so necessary for a group of young men about to face the world. A third func- tion of this Senior Retreat will be to give us an opportunity to conserve our energies for the greatest time of our college careers — Commencement Week. Judging from the general pattern of past commencement exercises at Boston Col- lege, the first function will be Baccalau- reate, at which we will be spellbound by some excellent orator, who will tell us that we are the greatest class ever to be grad- uated from Boston College — which we are — that we must go forth to face the crool, wide world etc., etc. Alumni Day — the day of tradition at Bos- ton College, at which loyal alumni will gather from all points to revisit their be- loved Heights. This is their day to congre- gate and swap stories of their deeds done and recall memories of the past. Class Day will be next with the planting of the class tree, the reading of the class prophecy and the class will. A stirring talk will be delivered by a classmate — the Tree Oration, recounting the glories of the past and anticipating wondrous deeds of the future. Then the most perfect of all the exercises — Commencement itself, in the synthetic Gothic cathedral erected on Alumni Field in the shadow of the Tower, with the chimes sounding a fitting farewell to our undergraduate career. Sky, grass, sheep- skins — mothers, fathers, . . . er, friends, gathered around us afterwards, fond kisses and hearty congratulations — most pic- turesgue; a most apt and colorful climax to our scholastic activity at Boston College. Then our last social affair as B. C. stu- dents — or are we alumni? — Commence- ment Ball, held at a nearby country club. This is the affair at which many plight their troths, never to be broken. When this affair ends, many of us will have seen our fel- low-classmates for the last time. Despite the pleas of Keep in touch with me, Write me! and Look me up! , when we leave that dance, our paths will part, per- haps never to cross again. Our classmates will spread to the far corners of the world; they will enter many diverse p rofessions. And when we do meet again, even if you can ' t remember the name, remember B.C. ' 40 and renew your acquaintances. Of course, you will not talk philosophy and sciences, but will speak of those small per- sonal things which go to make up college life. That is the reason this Class History was written; to touch on the main affairs of our four years together, in the hope that more personal happenings will be brought to your minds, from the mere mention of these affairs. JAMES T. RUSSELL. FRANCIS X. AHEARN, A.B. 39 Hooker Street, Allston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4; Latin Academy 1; Economics Academy 3; Law and Government Acad- emy 3; Marquette 2; Fulton 3, 4, Vice- Pres.: Alpha Sigma Nu 3, 4; Sub Turrl 4; B,C. Flying Club 4; C.A.A. Frank ' s energy and enthusiasm as editor of the Sub Turri are responsible for many of the novel and interesting features of this yearbook. He has applied these same qualities to his studies and extra-curricular activities, and, as a result, he has attained marked success in many of the clubs and societies in the col- lege. He is a member of the Alpha Sigma Nu, and served as president during his senior year of the New England Catholic Peace Federation. However, sodality work and debating were his chief interests (until airplanes and year books appeared on the scene to complicate matters). Frank intends to become a lawyer, and his many fine qualities insure his success in this field. VITO F. ANANIS, B.S. (EDUCATION) 42A Union Street, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3: Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; Hockey 1. Here is one who illustrates how success can be attained by energy and determination. Vito starred in many sports in high school and prep school, but his special ability in football was rec- ognized when he attained the captaincy of that sport at both schools. At B.C., Vito played three years of varsity football, and was outstanding in his senior year as one of the highest-scoring backs in the East. The chief reason for Vito ' s success in all sports is a combination of native athletic ability and tremendous energy. While his exploits in track are well-known, we must not overlook his capable performances in boxing and hockey. At the same time, Vito did not neglect his studies, and even found time to join the Sodality, and dabble a little in his hobby of photography. JAMES M. ANDERSON, A.B. 131 Pickering S treet, Needham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Fulton 4; Economics Academy 4; Sociology Academy 4; Sub Turri 4; Law and Gov ' t. Academy 4; Von Pastor History Academy 4; Latin Academy 1, 2; Tennis 4; French Academy 2. Jimmy came directly from Needham High where he was Busi- ness Manager of the Year Book and the School, as well as, cap- tain of the tennis team. He was also an honor student. While here at Boston College, Jimmy continued this grand work, being a very energetic participant in outside activities. Besides de- voting some valuable time to work on the Sub Turri staff, Jimmy managed to give a great deal of time to the Economics Lecture team. He ' s very much interested in all sports, while dancing and bridge seem to satisfy his fondness for entertainment; as a result he has attended many of the school ' s social functions. Jimmy is majoring in Econom ics, and intends to go to the Boston College Graduate School to study Sociology next year. JOSEPH H. AWEN, A.B, 129 High Street, Lowell, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Economics Academy 4; French Academy 1. Joe, whom we are pleased to number among our friends, is a genial fellow with a warm smile and a friendly greeting for all. For four years Joe has worked quietly and efficiently building for the future. That old adage, The early bird catches the worm, can most certainly be applied to Joe, for, although a commuter from Lowell, he was always one of the first to arrive for classes in the morning. Joe majored in economics, but even this subject which sent so many classmates to the wailing wall, was unable to disturb Joe ' s placidity as he took the study in stride. Joe also maintained the nor mal collegiate in- terest in baseball and football. JOHN P. BANKS, Jr., A.B. (HONORS) 932 East Fourth Street, South Boston, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Dra- matic Society 1; German Academy 1, 2; Sub Turri 4; Sociology Academy 4. Endowed with a keen intellect, John has been for four years an honor student of distinction with a special aptitude for the study of Philosophy. A graduate of Boston Latin School, he is majoring in sociology, a field which he may enter upon graduating. Ge- nial and urbane in manner, John is greatly interested in serious music and collecting books. Yet he also finds time to take part in tennis, and is a follower of baseball and football. In extracurri- cular matters John has concerned himself with the Sodality, the German and Sociology Academies, and the Sub Turri. Thus for a brief portrait of one of our more accomplished classmates, whom we leave with the wish that he may succeed in all his undertakings. EDWARD F. BARRETT, A.B. (HONORS) 48 Robeson Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Class Council 1; Cross and Crown 4; So- dality 1, 2, 3, 4; First Vice-Prefect 4; Mar- quette 1, 2; Law and Government Acad. 4; Heights 2; Junior Pic 3. Coming here from Boston College High, where he was selected the outstanding student in his graduating class, Ed has con- tinued to be an honor student during his four years at college. Yet his success in studies and extra-curricular activities has not prevented him from taking a keen interest in sports and music, on which subjects he is considered one of the school ' s leading authorities. Among extra-curricular activities he has been espe- cially prominent in the S odality, where he served as vice-prefect during his senior year and lectured on such subjects as Spain, Neutrality, Communism, and The Church and World Peace. He is specializing in American History, and after graduation expects to continue his studies in this field with a view to teaching or writing. oil ZE ' S WILLIAM L. BARRETT, A.B. 48 Robeson Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1. 2; Law and Govern- ment Academy 4; Golf 4. Bill is a quiet fellow from Jamaica Plain who was graduated from Boston College High. Entering college, he majored in busi- ness, concentrating especially on accounting which is his fa- vorite subject. Although he is studious by nature. Bill finds time to take up golf on a large scale, and rates as one of the best golfers in the Senior class. Among his many other hobbies are photography and engineering. In scholastic pursuits, he was a member of the French and Greek Academies in his first two years, and as a senior he joined the Law and Government Acad- emy as well as the Sodality. Bill comes from a Boston College family, his father and brother having been graduated in the past, while another brother is a member of the Senior Class with him. JAMES I. BARRY, A.B. 33 South View Street, Waterbury, Conn. Writer ' s Club 4; Radio Club 4; Tennis 4; Baseball 4. With only a fourth of his college days spent here at the Heights, Jim Barry can truly be called a one hundred per cent B. C. man in loyalty and devotion. After arriving from St. Mary ' s University he readily adapted himself to the atmosphere of his new sur- roundings and soon became one of us. It is as a participant of a hard and fast tennis match or as a spectator of a well-fought football game that Jim experiences great enjoyment. In contrast, it is while playing the piano that he finds an outlet for his in- terest and talents for both classical and popular music. His genu- ine sincerity, pleasant smile and warmth of personality are salient characteristics which make an indelible impression on all those who meet him and associate with him. ROGER J. BATTLES, B.S. (EDUCATION) 72 Hyde Park Street, Dedham, Mass. Football 1, 2; Track 1, 2. Chunky Roger began a meteoric football career at Boston English High School, where he teamed with James Cuff to bring gridiron fame to the fair name of English. His career at the Heights, however, was brought to an untimely end in his Sopho- more year when he suffered a fractured leg in one of the mid- season games. His interest in the gridiron game has remained razor sharp, however, even though his playing days were cut short. He has always been an excellent student, complementing scholastic achievement with social prominence as well. He hopes, some day, to train young boys in the classroom and on the athletic field, and, as a means toward this end, he has ma- jored in Education. He had hoped to establish an athletic record of some sort, as a further means, until the accident in the Sopho- more year. WALTER BERESTECKL A.B. (HONORS) 37 Rosewood Street, Mattapan, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3; Marquette 1, 2; Heights 1; Greek Academy 1; Latin Academy 1 ; German Academy 2 ; Econ- omics Academy 3, Sec. 4; B.C. Flying Club 4; C.A.A. 4. Primarily a student, Walter has held a high place on the Dean ' s List each year. As a sophomore, he received a summa cum laude award for excellence in German. With his eye fixed on a business career, Walter has wholeheartedly delved into his Business course, maintaining a close relationship to his major as secretary of the Economics Academy and student co-director of the NYA. As a senior, Walter has literally taken to the air as a participant in the Civil Aeronautics Flight-Training Program; in the first Flying Club at Boston College, he is secretary-treasurer. On week-ends, he is an indoor pilot — of an uptown hotel ele- vator. And there is always time for a round of golf or attendance at a touchdown parade. lii- wf JOHN C. BLACKWOOD, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 140 Pleasant Street, Brookline, Mass. Sodality 3; Band 2, 3, 4; Track 1; Cross and Crown 4; Chemist ' s Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Sub Turri 4; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. John is a Brookline High graduate, whose entrance to Boston College provided the musical clubs of the college with an out- standing performer. John majored in chemistry, and studied hard throughout his four years with an eye to the future. He in- tends to study chemical engineering at Harvard University after graduation. John is one of the more serious students on the cam- pus, and most of his time is spent in studying, or in cultivating his hobby of music. He plays the violin and saxophone well, and has been a mainstay of the orchestra and band for the last four years. The only thing about John that puzzles his classmates is whether to call him Blacky because of his name, or Whitey because of his hair. WALTER R. BOEHNER, A.B. 162 Highlands Street, Roxbury, Mass. Gold Key 3, 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Heights 3; German Academy 1, 2. Walter has given us definite instructions not to call him one of the best men to graduate from B. C. We will oblige Walt in this matter, but he cannot prevent us from calling him a most like- able and entertaining friend. Who but Walter would show up at our Sophomore banquet smoking a curved, old German pipe? Coupled with his sense of humor, Walter has a lively interest in many things. Flying and sodality work especially appeal to him, while he always has time to attend all the social functions of the class. Like his brother Bill, the well known athlete of the class of ' 33, he is a good baseball and hockey player. His plans for the future are not definite as yet. SIDNEY S. BOGEN, B.S. (EDUCATION) 66 Lawton Street, Brookline, Mass. One-Act Play Shop 3; Education Seminar 1, 2, 3, 4. This graduate of Huntington Prep is one of the most sophisti- cated members of the senior class. He is always well-dressed and well-groomed, and converses intelligently on many topics. Perhaps his interest in education has prompted him to observe and study the pedagogic techniques of his many professors. Sid is friendly with many of the football players, and is him- self an ardent follower of football, as well as baseball, tennis and hockey. His hobby is amateur photography, and he really does a thorough job of it, for he takes and develops moving pic- tures as well as still photos and even dabbles in color photog- raphy. Sid ' s ambition is to become a member of the School Committee of Brookline after he has attained the necessary ex- perience and qualifications for that position. NORMAND A. BOURGET, A.B. 155 West Street, Lawrence, Mass. Sodality 2; Philosophy Academy 3: Ger- man Academy 1; Sociology Academy 4. Here is one of our long-distance commuters. He rides in from Lawrence every day with John Hogan, Martin Shannon, et al. Norm prepared at St. John ' s Prep, where he must have picked up his great love for sports. Skiing and skating interest him in winter, while milder weather will often find him on the bridle- path. Norm ' s only regret is that he does not have time to delve more deeply into every subject in the curriculum. His is a most volatile nature — intensely serious one moment, he is laughing heartily the next. His interest in social problems has led him to major in the field of Sociology. Norm will probably continue his interest in this field after graduation. JOHN E. BOYLE, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 78 Westland Avenue, Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 3; Play Shop 3; Ricci Math Academy 2; German Acad- emy 2; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4. John has a ready smile for everyone, and no matter how hard the going is, he can always find something to be happy about. His laughing disposition refuses to allow him to worry, — at least until the night before exams. His favorite past-time is to grab a few blankets, hop into his sporty Ford phaeton, and go for a camping trip up in the wilds of Maine, and New Hampshire. His goal has always been Canada, but he has yet to reach it. John is a dangerous man around the laboratories. He is always blow- ing something up, but so far, he is still physically fit. Formerly a member of the National Guard, John gained his honorable dis- charge from that organization, and now devotes undivided at- tention to his Lab work. WILLIAM H. BRIC, Jr., B.S. (EDUCATION) Naval Ammunition Depot, Hingham, Mass. Hockey 3, 4; Tennis 1, 2. Just as soon as Thomas Brie ' 35 finished his education at Boston College, his brother, William Henry, entered as a freshman. He received his previous education at Hingham High School and at the B. C. Intown School. He was a member of the tennis team in Freshman and Sophomore, but later switched his endeavors to hockey. In senior year he tried out as goalie. He majored in Education, for he hopes to bring a bit of culture back t o the home town on the South Shore. He is a remarkable fellow in a way; upon entrance here at school, he knew very few men, yet today he is at least acquainted with many members of the Senior class, and has made lasting friendships with a number of them. WILLIAM F. BRINKERT, A.B. (HONORS) 82 Roxbury Street, Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2; Baseball 1; Sociology Academy 4. This tall, quiet, serious youth left an impression on the memories of his classmates at the college that long years will not erase. Bill is fortunate in blending a facile humor with his seriousness, and often flecked our college hfe with bright spots of pleasantry. Majoring in Sociology, Bill has been gaining actual experience working in the Roxbury Boys ' Club, where his ability to handle boys is recognized. His easy-going, unperturbable manner to- gether with his aptitude for droll witticism should undoubtedly assure his popularity with the world at large, and win him suc- cess in his chosen field. Bill will attend the Boston College School of Social Work next year, where he expects to prepare for a career as a probation officer. LEO J. BROGAN, B.S. (HISTORY) 43 White Street, Cambridge, Mass. Spanish Academy 2; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Leo prepared for College at Cambridge Latin School. He played basketball and ran on the track team in High School, but in col- lege his lone extra-curricular activity was joining the Spanish Academy to appease Dr. Azuola. He has spent most of his spare time working for a downtown ice cream concern, and in this line, has met with no little success. He intends to enter Boston College Law School in the fall, for his ultimate ambition is to conduct a successful law practice. His major subject at school was History, and in this field, he wrote a scholarly thesis on the Viewpoint of the South during the Civil War. He likes to go horseback riding once in a while, and has consequently developed quite a pro- ficiency in the saddle. lii ' Y PAUL I. BROOKS- A.B. 31 Cross Street, Winthrop, Mass. Golf Team 1, 2, 4; League of Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. To say that Paul comes from Winthrop is not enough; we must add that Winthrop is the greatest city in Massachusetts. For Paul is perhaps the greatest Winthrop booster at B. C, and no word of reproach against his home city must be uttered in his presence. Fittingly enough, Paul does credit to Winthrop by his proficiency in golf and basketball. He was a star golfer for Win- throp High for three years, and has continued to play the game at the Heights. His basket-ball playing, however, has been con- fined to playing for a local club team. He has not neglected his studies, as is shown by the fact that he was one of Father Sid Smith ' s star pupils in his Sophomore year. He is majoring in Economics to prepare for a future in the investment field. PHILIP M. BROOKS, A.B. (HONORS) 32 Bradlee Street, Dorchester, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3, i; French Academy 1, 2; Sec. Greek Academy 1. Phil Brooks is the silent partner in the Brooks, Burns, Carroll trio, whose conversations covered so many varied subjects other than logic and epistemology during Junior philosophy classes. He graduated from Boston Latin, and, no doubt influenced by associations there, is now majoring in Business. His membership in the Cross and Crown indicates the success he has had in these and kindred studies. Despite all his Boston associations Phil ' s heart belongs in Manhattan and he is never so cheery as when he can say that he is going on a trip to New York. Phil is one of the few students who can feel at ease in the Office of the Dean of Discipline, for he works there at odd times throughout the week. JOHN R. BURGGRAF, A.B. 415 East 204 Street, Bronx, New York Sodality 2; Heights 1; Stylus 1; Yacht 4. John is one of the few New Yorkers at Boston College. Although he comes from the Bronx, he has spent the greater part of the last eight years in this state. During his high school and college years, he has lived in Cambridge. He has a friendly smile, which is a sign of the winning disposition and sense of humor which have made him many friends. While he supplies the humor in every situation, at the same time he has a serious side. His ques- tions and discourses on money and banking show that he is a real student of economics, which is his major subject. His fa- vorite sport is yachting, and he was a participant in the Inter- collegiate Yacht Regatta on the Charles River. JAMES E. BURKE, A.B. 78 Perkins Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Gold Key 3; Dramatic Society 1; Glee Club 2; Hockey 1; Baseball 1; Law and Govern- ment Academy 3, 4. Jim ' s serious mien is an accurate indicator of his scholarly in- terests, but it fails to give any hint of his fine athletic ability. He was an outstanding baseball and football player at Jamaica Plain High School, and branched out into hockey in his fresh- man year here at the Heights. After the first year, however, he concentrated more or less on his studies and on reading in cur- rent affairs. He made his Shakespearean debut in his freshman year, but did not follow up this activity, preferring to lend his presence to the Law and Government Academy in the ensuing years. Jim tells us that he intends to study for the diplomatic ser- vice, and his industry and gracious bearing should make him one of Uncle Sam ' s more successful representatives. iji ' Y FRANCIS J. BURNS, A.B. (HONORS) 13 East Hastings Street, West Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Base- ball 1, 2, 3, 4, Capt. 4; Heights 3, 4; Greek Academy 1 ; Sociology Academy Pres. 4; Alpha Sigma Nu 3, 4, Vice-Pres. This Boston Latin School graduate is the contribution of the honors section to the sport world. Although he plays golf and football, his greatest success has been attained in baseball; three years of stellar playing for the college baseball team earned him the captaincy in his senior year. Sports however, did not prevent him from excelling in studies to such an extent that he became a member of the Cross and Crown and vice-president of Alpha Sigma Nu, the national fraternity. Frank majored in Sociology and was president of the Sociology Academy — and of course, we must not fail to credit him with membership in the much-loved Psychology and Ethics Seminars. After graduation, Frank intends to carve out for himself a career in major league baseball. lAMES J. BYRNE, B.S. (HISTORY) 417 Centre Street, Newton, Mass. Gold Key 3; Sodality 3. 4; Italian Acad- emy 1, 2; Football 1, 2, 3; Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4. Jim Bullet Byrne came to the Heights with a reputation as an all around athlete. While at Newton High School and Dean Academy, he played football, basketball, baseball and some hockey. At B. C, he concentrated on football and baseball, and attained success in both sports. In his senior year, Jim gave up football to concentrate on baseball and his studies. His major subject is history and frequently he is seen completing history assignments in the Chaucer Room of the library. Off the playing field, Jim is serious and industrious and is interested in the for- mation of clubs for boys. This and other interests along the same lines make him an attentive student in Dr. Fitzgibbon ' s classes. Bullet is well-liked by all as an entertaining companion, and a firm friend. EDWARD F. CAMERON, A.B. 1 1 Dunster Road, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4, Man- ager 2, 3; Greek Academy 2; Hockey 1; B.C. Flying Club 4; C.A.A. 4. Ed is the versatile gentleman from Jamaica Plain who graduated from Boston English High. He concentrated on English here at the college, and was for four years a member of the Glee Club, and for two, manager of that group. In his senior year he took to the air with the Civil Aeronautics unit of Boston College. To enu- merate Ed ' s many and varied hobbies, interests, and avocations would be a difficult task, for his choice ranges from literature and drama to aviation and sports. He also gets a thrill out of settling world problems in the lunchroom bull-sessions, and will probably submit a peace treaty to Hitler soon. Other than his plan to relax for a while after graduation, we are not aware of Ed ' s future intentions; yet his varied talents should open a broad field from which to select. ELMORE M. CAMPBELL, A.B. 33 Howe Street, Dorchester, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 2, 3, 4 Heights 2, 3, 4; German Academy 2 Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 4 Hockey 1; Tennis 1, 2, 3, 4, Manager 3 Captain 4. Al is another of our dissecting Dorchesterites, although he is better known for his capers on the tennis courts. A Pre-Med man, he has engaged in an unusual number of diverse activities. He has defended the honor of B. C. on the courts for four years and has become leader of the racquet wielders in his last year. He was active in Pre-Med activities, especially those concerned with chemistry. And although he confined his literary efforts to composing headlines for the Heights, he is a connoisseur of fine reading and a collector of first editions. He even appeared in the Heights-Stylus football game as a member of the dreaded Beagle backfield. This varied activity he topped off with membership in the Cross and Crown. lll ' Wf LEO E. CAMPBELL, A.B. 153 Foster Street, Brighton, Mass. Writer ' s Club 1, 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. This small, red-headed gentleman who seems to flow rather than walk through the corridors, is one of the most unobtrusive stu- dents in the college, yet his keen brain has devised a system whereby he can arrive in class at 9:14 A.M. every day of the year. He is never later and never earlier, but always on schedule. Perhaps the fact that he lives within walking distance of the College accounts for the uniformity and constancy of this feat. During the outdoor season, he plays golf and skates; his chief indoor pursuits are listening to music and attempting to demonstrate the superiority of intellect over the mere machine. Leo ' s particular field of concentration is English, but his plans for the future are as yet uncertain. WILLIAM F. CANNON, Jr., A.B. 171 Wachusett Avenue, Arlington, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Rifle Club 2. If the literal truth of the old axiom that silence is golden were admitted by the Treasurer of the college. Bill ' s tuition bill for four years would be $0.00, — in fact the college would owe Bill money. Bill Cannon has been so retiring that he is entitled to member- ship in the Academy of the Silent C ' s which includes such other men of ' 40 as Stephen Connolly, Leo Campbell, and Thomas Cox (formerly of our class). Business was the field selected by Bill Cannon. He was a member of the Sodality, and of the Economics Academy during his stay at Boston College. Bill is the kind who, after graduation, will industriously, if silently, set out to make a success of his life. SYLVESTER P. CAROSL A.B. 14 Grafton Street, Quincy, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2; Dra- matic Society 1, 2; French Academy 2, 3; German Academy 2, 3; Italian Academy 2, 3. This distinguished looking senior came from Quincy High School, and has provided Boston College with a competent critic of, and authority on, classical music and vocal artists. Himself the pos- sessor of a very fine voice, Syl has often entertained his friends with songs, both popular and classical. To further develop his talent, Syl has devoted much of his spare time to the study of music and voice training. But, be not deceived; for, beneath his serious exterior lies a quick wit and a fine sense of humor. He played an important role in the Junior Play, and his rendition of Shine on, Weston Moon was warmly greeted by the fair ones from Regis. Syl ' s chief interest besides music is Italian, a subject in which he majored. WILLIAM S. CARPENGER, A.B. 83 Central Avenue, Needham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Fulton 3, 4; Marquette 2; Italian Academy 1; Writer ' s Club 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Econ- omics Academy 4; Heights 3, 4; Base- ball 4. Bill came to Boston College from Needh am High, where he played baseball, and displayed the beginnings of the forensic ability, which developed to full maturity here in the Fulton De- bating Society. The closest of Bill ' s friends is Jack Sheehan, and they are usually seen together. Bill ' s favorite subjects are gov- ernment and business, although he was an excellent Italian stu- dent during the first two years. A follower of current events and sports, he reads the newspapers avidly, and wrote his thesis on one phase of the journalistic field. Bill also tried his hand at writing himself, and wrote for the Heights and became secretary of the Writer ' s Club. Bill is probably headed for a law career, but has also displayed interest in the field of journalism. 2:i- wt WALTER E. CARRIGAN, A.B. 50 Cambridge Street, Ayer, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2, 3: Pre-Med Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 4. Walter is one of our Boston and Maine commuters from the north country. During his four years at B. C, he has been very active in Pre-Med work which he intends to further by attendance at medical school. Perhaps, Walter ' s only disappointment is the fact that there is no ski team, for he spent many week-ends slooshing down the northern slopes of New Hampshire. He is one of the more popular men of the Pre-Med students, which is attested to by the fact that he was elected to the vice-presidency of the German Academy. Due to the fact that many of his school hours at University Heights have been spent in the science labs, Walter has not been able to participate in many extra-curricular activities. FRANCIS X. CARROLL, A.B. (HONORS) 34 Mallon Road, Dorchester, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3, 4: Fulton 3; Marquette 1, 2; Economics Academy 3, 4; French Academy 1; Greek Academy 1. Have you ever seen a little red Ford rocket out of the college gates and tear down to Copley Square? That ' s Frank Carroll, and you have to be quick to catch a glimpse of him. Some of those who have had the thrill-packed experience of a ride with F. X. will tell you that he ' s paled many a student in his dashes to make that 9:15 class. He put this aggressive spirit to good use with three years of debating, and two years of lecturing for the Economics Academy. Mentioned in the Junior Pic, perhaps a little previously, as the class Romeo, Frank is still trying to live up or down to the title during his spare time. JAMES P. CARROLL, B.S. (EDUCATION) 4 Summer Avenue, Maiden, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2. After finishing a high school career under Dominican tutelage at St. John ' s in Cambridge, Jim went to the other extreme by en- rolling himself under the Jesuits here at the Heights. Although he played basketball in high school, in college he has partici- pated in activities which are strictly non-athletic. Today, he would rather watch athletic competition than take part in it, but should the occasion arise, he could meet it with a stellar athletic performance. He is a photography enthusiast, and although none of his pictures ever won in competition, he has followed this hobby enough to appreciate a good picture when he sees one. He has been a member of the Sodality for the last three years, and was a member of the German Academy during Freshman and Sophomore. LEO F. CARTY, A.B. 37 Foster Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 2, 4; Marquette 1; Philosophy Academy 3; Heights 4; Sociology Acad- emy 4; Sub Turri 4. This is the slender and neatly-dressed gentleman who is often seen with Leo Campbell. Leo entered B. C. from Mission High School, and in his first two years concentrated on studies and the cultivation of friendships. In the last two years, however, Leo has blossomed forth and engaged in many extra-curricular activities. Perhaps association with Bill Condon has given him the ability to appreciate quickly the humour of any situation which is genuinely funny; as a result, he is an enlivening factor in all his classes. Leo is an ardent follower of baseball and foot- ball, especially when the latter sports are skillfully demonstrated by Boston College teams. He has majored in Sociology and plans to teach this subject after graduation. RICHARD F. CASSIDY, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 10 Moulton Avenue, Stoneham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4, Pres, 4; Radio Club 2; Boxing 2, 3; German Academy 1, 2. Richard Cassidy is better known as Pres, for under his presi- dency the membership of the Chemist ' s Club rose from a meagre few to well over a hundred. Under his leadership the club be- came a society, whose functions included a smoker, banquet, and dance, besides many chemical demonstrations and lectures. It is readily seen that Dick is not confined solely to the Chem. labs, brewing and distilling strange bathtub gin. On the box- ing team, he showed his ability in the manly art of self-de- fense. In chemical research, his hobby of glass-blowing will be a tremendous help in making his own intricate apparatus. Dick is also active in the Sodality as a member of the Publicity Committee. YALE H. CHARBONNEAU, A.B. 187 Varnum Avenue, Lowell, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Pre-Med Seminar 4; German Academy 1. 2. Yale comes to the Heights from Lowell via the Andover turnpike and the Fenway, all in the space of thirty-five minutes. No one has ever checked the time required for the return trip, but it ' s probably much slower if the same itinerary is followed. Speak- ing of itineraries, Brother Charbonneau ' s life here on Chestnut Hill is filled with trips to the third and fourth floors of the Science building, as he pursues his endless quest of atoms, molecules and the fourth dimension; indeed, his medical aspirations have kept him more or less hidden behind a maze of test tubes, re- torts, and Fr. McQuinn. His hat tilted at a rakish angle, polo coat flapping in the wind, Yale is the typical scientist and Pre-med student. PETER V. CIGNETTI, B.S. (EDUCATION) 190 Glenmere Avenue, Maiden, Mass. Football 1, Heart 1, 2 ; League of the Sacred Sociology Academy 4. Pounding Pete is the powerhouse fullback of the Eagles. Upon graduation from Maiden High School where he was an All- Scholastic football star and a four letter man, he entered Boston College and during his freshman and varsity career he has been outstanding as a line-plunger and demon on defense. He was especially adept in intercepting passes and recovering enemy fumbles. His winning touchdown in the Holy Cross game of ' 39 was one of the high spots of his career. Pete majored in educa- tion and is a member of the Sociology Academy. Although his greatest achievements have been on the gridiron, he is also keenly interested in all other sports and enjoys them whenever possible. Pete is modest, hard-working, and a true friend of his classmates. VICTOR COGHLAN, A.B. 179 Beale Street, Wollaston, Mass. Glee Club 4; Rifle Team 1; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. A good student and a thorough gentleman, Vic has won the respect and admiration of all his associates. A graduate of Bos- ton College High, he is majoring in economics, a subject which will aid him greatly in his projected career as a salesman. One of Victor ' s outstanding traits is the diversity of subjects in which he is interested. Among his hobbies he counts such sports as football, auto racing, shooting, camping, fishing, and motor- cycling. His fondness for shooting led him to join the rifle team during his freshman year. As a senior, he became a member of the Glee Club, another indication of his versatility. With this rare combination of talents, Victor is well eguipped to devote himself to the business of life. 2i ' 7:(¥f WILLIAM J. CONDON, A.B. 195 Temple Street, Whitman, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Fulton 3. A popular way to remain somewhere spiritually is to scratch one ' s name or initials on a classroom chair, as any freshman can tell you. But Joe was both more patient and more aesthetic, in that he waited till Junior year, and then took the hard way to quasi-immortality — he wrote a song (in partnership with Bill Dwyer). It ' s a good song too, and though it was written primarily for the class of 1940, there is no reason why it couldn ' t become a permanent fixture of this institution of learning. Even as Shakes- peare upheld the artistry of song and patter, so Joe finds time to be in one or two minstrel shows each year. And fortunately for the cafeteria critics, he is one comedian who doesn ' t drop his act when he comes off the stage. CHARLES P. CONLON, A.B. 108 Aberdeen Street, Lowell, Mass. Sodality 3, 4: Sociology Academy 4. Charles didn ' t get to Boston College until two years after he graduated from Lowell High School. He spent the interim in the freshman and sophomore years of St. Anselm ' s College in Man- chester, New Hampshire. However, he has so entered into the spirit of things here at the Heights that he was recently elected President of the Boston College Club of Lowell. Of liberal views, Charlie could listen to the contrasting types of humour of Fr. Douglas and Fr. O ' Brien with equal appreciation. Here at school, he has majored in sociology, and was a member of the Soci- ology Academy during his senior year. He likes to watch all sports, particularly football, although, like most of us, he has never officially participated in any of them. WILLIAM C. CONLON, B.S. (EDUCATION) 46 Guyette Road, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Spanish Academy 1, 2, 3; Basketball 1, 2; Chemist ' s Club 3. Last of an illustrious line of Conlons to matriculate at University- Heights, Bill entered from St. John ' s, where he was a prominent athlete and president of his class. He was the guiding spirit be- hind undergraduate basketball at Boston College, and cap- tained the unofficial team for two years. Genial and debonair, he is one of the most popular of the Education majors. Despite the press of his extra-curricular activities, he has won an en- viable reputation for scholarship. A Dean ' s List man for the greater part of his college career, he has been particularly suc- cessful in the field of applied psychology. Though no social lion, he patronizes most of his class affairs. He is a classmate of whom we may well be proud — a thorough and typical Boston College gentleman. THOMAS J. CONNELLY, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 38 Boylston Street, Brookline, Mass. Sociology Academy 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. When Tom graduated from Brookline High, he entered Berkley Prep, before coming to Boston College. The extra-curricular side of his life didn ' t blossom forth until his Senior year, when as sup- plement to his major, he joined the Sociology Academy. Up to this time his diversions had been mostly private, tending towards the theatre, and music, which is his first love. However, he is also interested in following the devious machinations of international politics. His purpose in coming to Boston College was primarily to get an education, secondarily to develop a pleasing person- ality. It goes without saying that he has attained the first, while his reputation as a good mixer shows that he has not failed in the second purpose. STEPHEN D. CONNOLLY, A.B. 41 Cook Terrace, Matlapan, Mass. Sodality 2, 4; League of Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Steve, a graduate of Dorchester High School, is one of the most retiring fellows in the class. He prefers to study hard, and let his classmates ask all the questions, and expend all the energy in extra curricular affairs. Steve gets a lot of enjoy- ment out of watching the passing parade of collegiate hfe, even though he is not as active a member of that parade as many other students. Of course, Steve is interested in sports of all kinds, but especially likes to watch good games of football, baseball and hockey. Steve is always on the scene, when the B. C. teams are competing in these sports. English is his favorite subject, and if concentration of effort means anything, Steve should become a successful candidate for an M. A. degree in that field, after finishing his undergraduate work. JOHN G. CONVERSE, A.B. 16 Eddie Street, Quincy, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Tennis 1, Manager 4; Heights 2, Associate Editor 3, Feature Edi- tor 4; Pre-Med. Seminar, Secretary 4; Chemist ' s Club 4; Baseball 1; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4; Junior Pic, Associate Editor; Sub Turri 4. Gerry Converse came to B. C. from Quincy High, and has ex- celled scholastically and in extra-curricular activities. He joined the Sodality, and has been a member since. He also played tennis and baseball, and is the present varsity manager of the former sport. A member of the Heights, he has been Associate Editor and Feature Editor. Gerry also was Associate Editor of the Junior Pic, and a member of the Sub Turri staff. Gerry and the Prince (all programs to the contrary notwithstanding) co- authored the Junior play. He is also a member of the Gold Key, the Cross and Crown, and is Master of the Hounds in the ultra- exclusive Beagle Hunt Club. Numbered among his favorite amusements is throwing Jack Dalton out of the Height ' s office. GRAFTON J. CORBETT, Jr., A.B. (HONORS) 41 Dwight Street, Dedham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; French Academy 2; Latin Academy 1, 2. Grafton, member of the inseparable duo of Frank Smith and Grafton Corbett, was an honor graduate from Dedham High School. At the college, he has continued his outstanding work in studies for four years, and he is one of the few really serious and persistent questioners in class. Many of his questions would stump the experts. Grafton finds time to follow all sports as a spectator, but his nature is really on the intellectual side. With accounting as his major subject, he seems to be one of the few in the accounting courses who is not always lamenting the sup- posedly crushing and difficult assignments in that study. Graf- ton ' s quiet persistence will bring him success in whatever field he chooses after graduation. FRANCIS J. CO SGROVE, A.B. 209 Circular Avenue, Waterbury, Conn. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Dramatic Society 3, 4; Busi- ness Manager 4. ' Cos, ' can you get me a couple of tickets for tonight ' s perform- ance? This question often made Frank seek the solitude of the Dramatic Office. As Business Manager, Frank was one of the powers behind the Dramatic Society; for under his scope came the huge tasks of arranging the publicity, and supervising the sale of tickets for the various productions. It is rather difficult to say who enjoys Professor Doyle ' s jokes the most, Dr. Doyle or Frank. In any case, Frank was always on hand for meetings of the Law and Government Academy. His readiness to uphold the fair name of Connecticut has spread the rumor that he is a spy for the Connecticut Chamber of Commerce; indeed, the name of Waterbury was never unhallowed while Cos was present. :E ' Y JOSEPH G. COSTIGAN, A.B. 8 Sachem Street, Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Glee Club 1: Fulton 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2. Ambition properly directed is perhaps the greatest single con- tributing factor to any man ' s success, and to speak of ambition is to speak of hard work. All of which serves to introduce Joe. Though busy working his way through college, Joe has found time to devote to debating, and for four years has been an active member of the college debating societies. Majoring in English, he has often called upon his knowledge of the classics in de- bating, to the envy and admiration of his classmates. Joe ' s fa- vorite sport is baseball and, although he never went out for the team here at the college, he ' s a good ball player. Well, we ' ll leave the future to you, Joe ; we know you ' ll make the best of it. JAMES H. COUGHLIN, Jr., A.B. (HONORS) 61 Willow Street, West Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Philosophy Academy 3, 4, Sec. 3; Greek Academy 1; Sub Turri 4. No one will dispute that Jimmy is the most jovial fellow in the senior class. Jimmy ' s smile is a positive distraction when one has work to do, because one cannot worry efiiciently in his genial presence. As a graduate of Boston Latin, Jim naturally received a fine training in the Latin language; he has followed up this subject at B. C. and made it his field of specialization. He likes to listen to any and all sorts of arguments, and occasionally injects a bantering note into the discussion. Jim ' s optimistic per- sonality makes him a favorite in any group of friends. His pet hobby is photography, while his interests include all sports. No set-back in later life could possibly keep Jim ' s elastic nature down very long. ROBERT J. CROMWELL, A.B. 31 Houston Street, West Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4. This quiet but likeable senior hails from the exclusive district of West Roxbury and attended Boston English High and St. John ' s Prep. Bob is greatly interested in all sports, and has played base- ball for four years at Boston College, being the steady and de- pendable pivot man in the infield of the teams that have yet to lose a series to Holy Cross. After graduation, he plans to follow a career as a pilot in the United States Navy Air Corps, having already been enrolled in the June class at Squantum. He follows in the footsteps of many Boston College men who have so suc- cessfully entered the field of aviation and hopes to emerge high in the service of our government. JEREMIAH A. CRONIN, A.B. 866 East Fiith Street, South Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Heights 2; French Academy 1, 2. One could be sophomoric and call Jerry the Juvenal of his class. But that would be trite and trivial, and unfair to him, esoecially since Jerry is never one to fall back on another man ' s wit, (his own is so much better). In fact, he has an enviable reputation in Chestnut Hill cafeteria society for his subtly bittersweet humor. Jerry may make friends slowly, but he makes them for keeps. In all things his likes and dislikes are exercised with equal in- tensity. Certainly, no one will ever call him a hypocrite. Jerry prepared at English High, and was preceded at the Heights by his two older brothers. He is majoring in Economics and is as happily uncertain about future plans as the rest of us. JOSEPH V. CRONIN, A.B. 1904 Canton Avenue, Milton, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society I.- French Academy 1. In the world today we need men of outstanding sincerity and loyalty, men who will uphold the ethical principles they learned here at the college. Just such a man is Joe ; his character is a blend of honesty and ability which spells success. Along with these admirable qualities he possesses a rare Irish wit. Joe ' s loyalty to Alma Mater led him from Milton through the wilds of the Blue Hills to all the important athletic and social functions of the college. An expert on reciprocity and a philosopher of note, Joe ' s manifest joviality and good-fellowship are sure to stand him in good stead later in life. From the Heights of Chest- nut Hill to the heights of success for Joe. W. ROBERT CRONIN, A.B. 45 Jordan Avenue, Wakefield, Mass. Sodality 3: Dramatic Society 1; Fulton 3 Law and Government Academy 3, 4 Heights 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2 Yacht 1, 2; Sub Turri 4. W. Robert Cronin, a resident of Wakefield, has majored in Eng- lish here at the Heights. Specializing within that field in the ro- mantic poets of the nineteenth century. Bob was seldom seen without a volume of Keats or Shelley under his arm. Bob is him- self the possessor of considerable literary ability, which he has displayed in two of the college publications, the Heights and the Sub Turri. Although officially designated as a member of the sports staff of the Heights, Bob is able to write well on many other subjects, and even composes a few lines of verse when he is in the mood. To a man of Bob ' s expansive interests, discus- sions about the philosophy of art and arguments about football are equally appealing. THOMAS I. CROSS, A.B. 196 W. Sixth Street, South Boston, Mass. Gold Key 3; Sodality 3, 4; German Acad- emy 1, 2; Sub Turn 4; Member of Marine Reserves 3, 4. During his four year stay within our portals Tom has always gratified the whimsical side of our natures with his quips and puns. With incomparable aplomb and nonchalance he rode the slippery pages of Horace, jousted with physcis, and passed through the syllogistic forests of philosophy from which he emerged unscathed like a true Marine. If we students were awarding the degrees, it would be a Summa Cum Laude for Tom. Even the grueling months at Quantico were unable to af- fect Tom ' s good nature. Tom majored in English, and is inter- ested in writing. His versatility and capacity for work are sure to stand him in good stead in the years to come. THOMAS I. CUDMORE, B.S. (HISTORY) 72 Pleasant Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1: Writer ' s Club 1, 2; Sociology Academy 4; Boxing Team 2, 3: German Academy 1, 2; Track 1; Rifle 1, 4; Baseball 1, 2, 3. With an impressive high school record of several one-hit games, Tom promised to be a fine addition to B. C. ' s pitching staff; but early in his varsity career, illness curtailed his diamond activ- ities. Tom is a member of the Boston College Marine Corps, which afforded him six weeks of training during the summer at Quan- tico, Virginia. His service in this corps entitles Tom to the com- mission of Second Lieutenant in the reserves upon graduation. By his Marine experience Tom earned a place on the rifle team. He is so profoundly interested in criminology that he spent two weeks at Elmira State Reformatory studying the organization and conditions of a modern prison. Membership in the Sociology Academy furthered this interest. After graduation he intends to enter B. C. ' s Social Service School. zn- y vf ARTHUR V. CULLEN- Jr., A.B. 34 Bourne Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 2, 3, 4; Sub Turri 4; Junior Pic 3; B.C. Flying Club 4; Marguette 1; French Academy 1, 2; C.A.A. 4. Art Cullen came to B. C. from the High School of the same name. He distinguished himself in Freshman by emerging unscathed from an overturned car and a brook. In Sophomore, he joined the Heights ' staff, wrote Peeps ' Diary in Junior, and became editor this year. A member of the Sodality since his first days at B. C, he was Chairman of the Social Committee in Senior. Art is one of the charter members of the C. A. A., and the B. C. Flying Club. Among other activities, he is an associate editor of the Sub Turri, and is frequently seen at College social functions. Nor- mally a quiet fellow, he belongs to the Beagle Hunt Club and is one of the few who made the historic trip to Dallas. RICHARD I. CURNANE, A.B. 516 Broadway, Everett, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 2; Fulton 3; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; So- ciology Academy 4; Boxing 1, 2, 3; French Academy 1; Track 1; Rifle 1, 2. One of the most popular members of the class of ' 40 is Dick Cur- nane of Everett. Entering college after his graduation from Bos- ton College High, where he won his letters in football and track for two years, his ready wit and genial personality soon made him a favorite with all who knew him. His interests are varied ranging from debating, singing, and languages, to football, baseball, shooting, and boxing. A keen student of contemporary political affairs, he is specializing in Government and is a promi- nent member of the Law and Government Academy. Despite his ability in so many fields, Dick is ever unassuming and jovial. En- dowed as he is with so many gifts, we are confident that great success will be his in the future. RICHARD F. CURRAN, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 5 Monument Street, Charlestown, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4. Easy-going and dependable are the adjectives which best characterize Dick. After four brilHant years of football, track, and hockey at the High School of Commerce, Dick decided to forsake sports in order to more zealously pursue his studies in Criminology. An active member of the Sodality and Sociology Academy, he found ample opportunity to round out his class work and prepare himself assiduously for his future occupation as a social worker. From what has been said it is not to be imagined that Dick was a grind ; far from it, he always man- aged to find the time to attend the majority of the college social functions. Dick is interested in the study of crime and penal institutions, and, after graduation, might pursue a career closely connected with these interests. JOHN J. DACEY, A.B. (HONORS) 68 King Street, Dorchester, Mass. Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown, Vice-Com- mander 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4, Prefect 2; Law and Government Academy 3, 4, Pres. 4; Heights 2, 3, 4, Assoc. Ed. 3, Head of Editorial Board 4; Spanisfi Academy 1, 2, 3, Pres. 2; Sub Turri 4. John, who comes to us by way of B. C. High and Converse ' s car, holds the enviable position of Uncle Dudley of the Heights. As head of the editorial board, he has often expounded controver- sial subjects, for John has a flair for things political, economic, and religious. A curious blend of conservative and radical, our man of infinite wisdom exhibits his comprehensive talents in the number of diversified activities in which he takes part. From Cross and Crown to Beagle Hunt Club, J. J. D. mingles knowledge with jest. A logician of note, he is a familiar figure about the campus, refuting adversaries, condemning Dorothy Thompson, and bantering with an effervescent humor that belies his serious mien. JOHN F. DALEY, A.B. 42 Flyni Street, North Quincy, Mass. Sodality 2, 3; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Economics Academy 4; Junior Pic 3: Heights 3, 4. Climaxing an excellent career at North Quincy High, John en- tered B. C. with fine collegiate ambitions. Mixing scholastic with extra-curricular activities in a perfect proportion, he managed to stay on the Dean ' s List for four years, as well as enter into such sophisticated activities as the Cross and Crown, the Gold Key, the Orchestra and the Heights. In Senior, John managed adver- tising for the Heights in a most business-like manner. Though few know it, John spends many of his leisure hours playing the violin. Majoring in Economics, he turned a remarkable amount of scholastic zeal to this vast subject, with the result that he was soon recognized among his fellow students as an expert on the economic interpretation of all current events. JOHN T. DALTON, A.B. 44 Eliot Street, Braintree, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2, 3, 4; Sub Turn 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2. It is hard to believe that two Jack Daltons came to B. C, and graduated four years later with one diploma for both. But such is the case. When Jack came back to school last fall, he was no longer the Falstaffian Jack we knew the previous years. He was svelte, slim, and even more jovial. Some of his friends didn ' t even recognize him. But when they saw him mixing sulphuric and nitric acids up in the Chem Lab, they knew it was the same old Jack Dalton. This year he was a member of the Heights, and of the Sub Turri Feature Staff. He has also been a member of the Sodality and of the Chemist ' s Club. We shall never look on his like again. •P JOSEPH F. DANNEHY, A.B. 64 Valley Street, Willimantic, Conn. Sodality 3, 4; League of Sacred Heart 3, 4. Joe, like many other good things, came late in life, having waited until the Junior year to enter here at the Heights; but his pres- ence was only the more welcome. His remarkable training in the languages and classics surprised even his instructors, and re- flected great credit on St. Thomas Seminary, which Joe has at- tended. Joe was generous with his ability with the pen, and it is a known fact that if he gave up the ghost many of his friends would suffer. Joe ' s ability in extra-curricular activities, and in the social world, though not often displayed, clearly show Joe to be not merely a good student, but a person well developed along other lines as well. Joe displayed some of this ability as a mem- ber of the Junior Week Committee. FRANCIS X. DEELY, B.S. (HISTORY) 35 Line Street, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1; Social Science Seminar 2; Spanish Academy 1, 2. Possessed of a keen sense of humor, Frank has proven himself a worthy scholar and true gentleman. He chose history as his major, and has centered his interests about social service work. A graduate of Cambridge High and Latin School, Frank still has a solid interest in the home town as a devotee of political or- ganization and the general management of the city of Cam- bridge. In freshman and sophomore, his activities included the Spanish Academy and the Glee Club, and he also belonged to the Social Service Seminar in his second year. Although he did not continue his participation in the sports in which he was actively engaged in high school, Frank has been a loyal spec- tator and rooter at all of the Boston College sport exhibitions. HENRY T. DESMOND, A.B. 71 Central Avenue, Milton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 2; Fulton 3. 4; Sub Turri 4. Henry, who hails from the confines of the town of Milton, has proved himself to be worthy of the title alumnus of Boston College, and has labeled himself as a well-rounded gentleman. By participating in representative activities, and by his con- tinued support of all the social functions of the class, he has in- dicated his loyalty to the school. Economics has been his major field of endeavor, and Boston College Law School is his destina- tion. The Heights has been his favorite activity because, as he says, it is the most democratic of all the organizations in the col- lege. Like several others of this class, Henry makes a special hobby of candid camera work, but dislikes being called a can- did camera fiend. JOSEPH A. DESMOND, A.B. 35 Allston Street, Charlestown, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4. From Charlestown comes another Charlestownite, Joe Des- mond, a leader in all things sociological. He majored in So- ciology. He was a member of the Sociology Academy and plans to follow a career in the field of Sociology. And throughout his entire college career he was often an active participant in the many sociological bull sessions, which play so important a part in the rotunda life of Boston College. Joe was also a member of the Sodality during his four years at the Heights and while he did not take part in any varsity or minor athletics, he was a ready and skilled performer in all forms of informal intra-mural competition. Joe prepared for Boston College at Boston Col- lege High School. 4 ??5 r « ' .m A k k • 7 L ' Hjl JOSEPH M. DIPIETRO, A.B. 1533 River Street, Hyde Park, Mass. French Academy 1; Track 1. A former schoolboy dash champion at Hyde Park High School, where he prepared for Boston College, Joe loves the sport of his choosing and proved himself a very capable runner during his college days. He was a member of the Boston College track forces during his freshman year at the Heights and, while he later abandoned the sport as an active participant, his interest in the cinder game has never lessened. During his college days he also showed interest in the study of French, in which subject he majored. He also joined the French Academy to further fill out his list of collegiate activities and was an eager participant in all affairs of that organization. He will probably continue in some field where French will come in handy during his post- college days. FRANCIS X. DISKIN, A.B. 33 Lexington Avenue, Somerville, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Class Council 2; Stylus 3, 4; Yacht 3, 4; Secretary of A. A. 4, The Class of 1940 can congratulate themselves upon electing Frank as the Junior Prom Chairman. Genial Frank, realizing that the Junior Prom was the biggest social event of the college ca- reer, endeavored to fulfill all the expectations. As a result, he supervised one of the smartest and most successful proms in the history of the college. Soon after this colorful event, he was elected Secretary of the A.A. Besides these two honors, he has received many more during his four years. One, that he patiently waited for, was membership in the Cross and Crown. Besides social life, Frank was active in athletics. Among his favorites are football and baseball, but yachting runs a close third. After having majored in Economics, Frank is now planning to attend Graduate Business School. FREDERICK J. DOBBRATZ, Jr., A.B. 42 Mapleton Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Spanish Academy 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 2; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4. Perhaps it is that air of absolute independence which attracts people to him that makes Fritz so well-liked. Or, perhaps it is that superabundance of Latin fire, which Fritz has imbibed during his four years of study of the Spanish language. In any case, Fritz is very popular, even though he is somewhat of a satirist in ev- eryday conversation. But, in spite of — or because of — his trenchant wit, Fritz is a real to nic, if first shaken well enough to make him fizz. Fritz having majored in Spanish, intends to be- come a professor of this language, and his chances of success can be doubted by no one who saw him in that Spanish play presented during the Diamond Jubilee Celebration two years ago. FRANCIS T. DONOVAN, Jr., A.B. 45 Fairview Avenue, Readville, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1. 2. 3, 4; Dramatic Society 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Gov- ernment Academy 3, 4; Sub Turri 4; One- Act Playshop 2. Frank is the type of gentleman who reflects nothing but credit on Boston College. Quiet and gracious of manner, he lets his ac- complishments speak for him. His scholarship and dramatic abil- ity were recognized at Boston College High, when he won a dra- matic scholarship at the New England Conservatory of Music. He is also a talented pianist and organist, and has been class or- ganist for four years. Supplementing this artistic side of his per- sonality is his interest in Sodality work and Economics. As Chair- man of the Eucharistic Committee in his Senior year, he directed the work of one of the most important groups in the Sodality. His membership in the Cross and Crown indicates the quality of his work in Economics, as well as in the other subjects. THOMAS F. DONOVAN, B.S. (EDUCATION) 3 Grove Street, Concord, New Hampshire Von Pastor History Academy 1, 2; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Tom is one of the ever increasing number of fellows who come to the Heights from the Granite State. His graduation from St. John ' s High in Concord, N. H., culminated a scintillating high school career in theatricals, journalism, and even football , which he played for three years. He is an excellent swimmer and tennis player, as well as a fine skier, when weather permits. In- doors, his avocations vary from light reading to building ship models, at which he is somewhat of an expert. The explanation of this versatile activity must be the invigorating atmosphere of Concord, plus Tom ' s own natural vitality. After graduation from college, he intends to study at B. C. Law School, and later to practice law in his own home town of Concord. JAMES M. DOONAN, A.B. 45 Blakeley Street, Lynn, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2; Marquette 1, 2; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1; Pre- medical Seminar 4: Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; One Act Playshop 2. Jim is one of the members of the Damon and Pythias combina- tion of Henderson and Doonan. Although never in a leading role, Jim has contributed in no small measure to the many suc- cesses of the dramatic club in the last two years. He also gave of his talent to the One Act Playshop and the Glee Club, among other organizations. Like all Pre-medical students, however, his hours are long, and the time for outside interests limited, so that Jim did well to join as many clubs as he did. Jim ' s forte is his laboratory work, and he is admired for the deftness with which he handles scalpel and forceps. We are sure Jim will be as suc- cessful in all his future medical studies. RALPH E. DOUGHERTY, A.B. 84 Franklin Street, Stoneham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4; Ger- man Academy 1, 2; Hockey 1. 2, 3, 4. Enter next the outstanding hockey player in the class of ' 40 and captain of the team in his senior year. Coming from Boston Col- lege High, where he won laurels as an all-scholastic star, Ralph has continued his sterling play for four years at the Heights. Yet his athletic inclinations are not confined to hockey, for he is a participant in golf, baseball, and football, being especially talented in golf. Ralph majored in Sociology and was a member of the Sociology and Law and Government Academies. He also is a fine German student and a member of that Language Acad- emy. A popular member of his class and a zealous worker, his many fine qualities will greatly aid him in his work in later life. JOHN A. DOUGLAS, A.B. 43 Dartmouth Street, Somerville, Mass. Spanish Academy 1, 2. 3; Track 1; Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4; Golf 3, 4; Yacht Club 3, 4. John is a popular resident of Somerville and a graduate of Bos- ton College High School. Entering Boston College, he selected English as his field of concentration and has a thorough knowl- edge of the field of English Literature. He is a keen follower of, and participant in hockey, golf, and football, having been for three years a member of the hockey team and for two years a player on the golf team. John is also a prominent member of the Spanish Academy where he exhibits the same pleasant disposi- tion which makes him so well liked by every senior. We con- clude with a wish that John ' s aggressive nature may bring him the success which he deserves, in whatever business or profes- sion he may decide to enter after graduation. lll- tf FREDERICK W. DOW, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 33 Houghton Street, Dorchester, Mass. Secretary of Class 1; Class Council 2; Assistant Knight Commander, Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3; German Academy 2; Sub Turri 4; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4. Fred ' s name has graced the Dean ' s List at Boston College for four years, while his proficiency in the study of Chemistry is well-known. This scholastic activity, however, has not prevented Fred from developing the many other native capacities which are his. His executive talent has been utilized in the office of cor- responding secretary of the New England Catholic Student Peace Federation, and in the position of Business Manager of the Sub Turri. He has developed his speaking ability by three years of debating, and by many discussions with classmates about politics and the advantage of science in education. Fred would like to become an educator eventually, and own his own summer camp. JOHN B. DOYLE, Jr., A.B. 256 Strawberry Hill, Stamford, Conn. Gold Key 3; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, 4; Heights 1, 2, Associate Editor 3, Editorial Board 4; Track 2, 3, 4. Jack Doyle is graduating from Boston College as his brother and father did before him — leaving behind an impressive and diver- sified record of scholastic and extra-curricular activities. A mem- ber of both the Fulton and Marguette, John B. was also an As- sociate Editor of the Junior Pic. For outdoor sports he likes la- crosse, which he played at Stamford High. Here at the Heights, Jack went in for track. He is guite sophisticated, possessing a subtle sense of humor, and a great fund of what might be termed Pellets of Wisdom which he dispenses on suitable occasions. John is to be found in the midst of all intellectual discussions which take place in the Heights Office. 2:: ii i! ' JOHN J. DOYLE, B.S. (BIOLOGY) 2 1 Barbara Lane, West Medford, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; German Academy 2; Pre- Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4. Jack started his career at Boston College in the history course, but after a week or two decided that he would like to try the field of medicine, and today finds him one of the more popular em- bryonic doctors of the graduating class. This good looking fellow from Medford will always be remembered for his extreme con- fidence before an examination. While the rest of us were sweat- ing and wondering what questions would be asked, or more accurately, what answers would suffice, Jack would stroll about, telHng the lads to take it easy, and saying: If you don ' t know now, you never will. There was something to be said for his philosophy at that; for Jack has maintained a respectable level in his scholastic standing during the past four years. LAWRENCE J. DOYLE, A.B. 12 Pond Street, Beverly, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Latin Academy 1, 2; Track 1; Baseball 1. Larry has been mistaken so many times for his brother Walter at St. John ' s Prep, and here at the college, that he has now be- come accustomed to it. Perhaps the only one who could detect a noticeable difference between them was Father Low, for he long thought they were merely brothers and not twins. Larry does not mind this confusion, for he ' s a cheerful fellow, who takes things easy until a few weeks before the semester exams. Then he haunts the Reference Library morning and afternoon, and tries to extract some more knowledge from the books on Economics. Larry competed in track and baseball for a short while, but now prefers less strenuous relaxation, with more time to plan his future. :!!• ; WALTER V. DOYLE, A.B. 12 Pond Street, Beverly, Mass. Class Council 2; Gold Key 3; Economics Academy 3, 4; Greek Academy 1, 2. Here is the other half of the Doyle duet. Like his brother, he pre- pared at St. John ' s Prep, and also majored in Economics. How- ever, it seems that Walt is undisputed boss of the Doyle family car; and this superiority is probably based on the fact that Walt usually drives the car faster than Larry. Walt tells us that his favorite sports are baseball and football, and that his favorite relaxation is hunting. Other activities which occupied his time were the Economics Academy and the Greek Academy. And, of course, the Gold Key Society was pleased to have a representative of the Doyle clan on its list. Walt has our best wishes for his success in whatever he chooses for the future. WILLIAM F. DOYLE, A.B. 410 Prospect Street, Norwood, Mass, Play Shop 2, 3; Glee Club 1: Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Economics Academy 3, 4. It is fortunate that each human personahty is unique; otherwise, we might confuse the many Doyles, who are members of our class. Four years ago one of these Doyles, William by name, slipped into his seat in the Latin class with three more Doyles flanking him. A question was asked of Doyle. The others fenced-off the interrogation. Billy took over and quashed their uneasy anticipation, by answering correctly. That ' s the kind of fellow Bill Doyle has been through four years; quiet, but friendly and helpful. He has sat back watching the passing parade with an appraising eye. When he talks, he says something. And frequently there ' s a spark of mischief in what he says. Bill has applied some of his imagination to scenario writing for the Play- Shop. r ' ? Ml A FRANCIS W. DRINAN, A.B. 7 Fairview Avenue, Hyde Park, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2; German Academy 1, 2; Pre- medical Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Junior Pic 3. Frank stands head and shoulders above all other students in the Pre-Medical course. It really is a treat to see his 6 ft. 3 in. frame curled about a microscope. Quite a journalist during his years at Hyde Park High School, Frank served on the staff of the Heights for two years. In the last two years, however, he has seen fit to devote most of his time to scholastic and social pur- suits at the Heights. During that time he was a faithful member of the Sodality and also contributed to the Junior Pic. These ef- forts, together with his scholastic ability, earned him member- ship in the Cross and Crown. Frank aspires to become a doctor and should rise high in that profession. FREDERICK L. DRISCOLL, B.S. (HISTORY) 55 St. Mark ' s Road, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Radio 1; Von Pastor His- tory Academy 4; French Academy 2; Rifle 1. Freddy, who is a popular figure on the Boston College campus, came to the Heights via English High School. He has been a member of the Radio Club, the Von Pastor History Academy, and the Rifle Squad, and has given much of his time to the Boston College Marine Company. Fred delights in relating the ad- ventures and escapades of his two year training period at Quan- tico, Virginia, and he is always listened to with interest by his many friends. Fred will receive a commission in Uncle Sam ' s Marine Corps after graduation, but he may also continue his study in graduate school; we hope that he will achieve the same success he attained as an undergraduate at Boston College. JOSEPH F. DRISCOLL, A.B. 28 Blakeville Street, Dorchester, Mass. Class Treasurer 3; Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2, Vice-Pres. 2; Fulton 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4. This husky chap with the pleasant manner entered Boston Col- lege from English High school. Ever since his freshman year, Joe has been noted as a speaker and debater. Not only has he engaged in the more formal debating of the Marquette and Ful- ton, but he has also spoken as a sodality lecturer before all types of audiences. This forensic ability aided him in his successful campaign for the office of class treasurer in the junior year. Joe likes to observe and interpret the political trends and situ- ations in Boston, and is applauded for his imitations of well known political figures. Always interested in expressing himself (so he claims), Joe practices this art frequently in his sociology classes, where he finds plenty of material for discussion. JOHN P. DUBRULE, A.B. 596 Haverhill Street, Lawrence, Mass. Stylus 4; French Academy 3, 4; Writer ' s Club 4; Sodality 3, 4. A shift of allegiance from Holy Cross to Boston College brought John to the Heights in our Junior year. A student of literature, he immediately joined the Stylus, of which he is now a staff mem- ber. His unusual philosophical views have involved him in many arguments with Ed Barrett and the other orthodox thinkers of the class. Often, John provided the opposition which is necessary if anything fruitful is to result from philosophical discussions. How- ever, in spite of this, or perhaps because of it, John was esteemed by his associates, always being an interesting and provocative controversialist in his writing, as well as in his speech. English is his major subject, and in conjunction with his Stylus work, he is a member of the Writer ' s Club. PAUL K. DUFFEY, A.B. 74 G Street, South Boston, Mass. Class Secretary 3; Gold Key 3; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 2; Fulton 3, 4; Writer ' s Club 1; Stylus 1, 2, 3, 4; Managing Editor 4; Von Pastor History Academy 1; French Academy 1; Tennis Team 1: Cheer Leader 3. One finds oneself at a loss for words to describe the many-sided phases of Paul ' s character. He always seems to be relaxed; yet, his many accomplishments indicate that tremendous energy surges within his wiry frame. His interests range from writing, speaking, and cheerleading to tennis, golf, and even football as played d la Stylus. Paul comes from a real B. C. family, for six of his relatives have attended our college. He is one of the easiest fellows to find, because he seems to be everywhere at once, and always doing something. Despite all his activity, Paul finds time to study, and devote some attention to his hobby of writing. Slender and ingratiating, Paul ex hibits a well rounded person- ality which should stand him in good stead in later years. THOMAS E. DUFFEY, Jr., A.B. 9 Larkhill Road, West Roxbury, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Law and Government Academy 3, 4, Sec. 4: Spanish Academy 1, 2, 3, Vice- Pres. 3; Tennis 1. Blonde, impeccably-dressed Tom has been a prominent fixture on the campus for the entire four years of his college career. With Economics his major field of concentration, Tom has carried his diverse talents into the Law and Government Acad- emy in which he recorded the minutes for fourth-year meetings. Perhaps his most outstanding achievements here on the Heights have been those performed under the auspices of the Dramatic Society. Destined for theatrical glory after his grand perform- ance in Yellow Jack when only an untried sophomore, Tom has given the Dramatic Society many noteworthy performances in such plays as Richard II, Taming of the Shrew and the eminently successful Second Spring. WILLIAM A. DUFFEY, Jr., A.B. 13 Lee Street, Somerville, Mass. Dramatic Society 1; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Here is a fellow who likes to sit back with a twinkle in his eyes, and watch the antics of his classmates. As a former member of the great Section D in Freshman, he knows how to do everything in a leisurely manner. Although he plays football and baseball only for his own enjoyment, he is a very skilled performer in both sports. Furthermore, he tried his hand at dramatics in his fresh- man year, but concentrated on his studies thereafter, with such success that he was a consistent Honors man throughout his last three years. In his spare time. Bill works at his unique hobby of curing Irish moss. Bill is specializing in the study of English, with an eye to entering the teaching profession. THOMAS F. DUNCAN, A.B. (HONORS) 764 Columbia Road, Dorchester, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 1;; French Academy 1, 2; Treasurer 3, 4; Greek Academy 1; Pre- medical Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 4. One of the ever busy Pre-Med. students, Tom came to B. C. from Latin School, bringing with him his renowned Misogynist Club. Tom vows that he is the permanent and all-time president of this club. This position automatically gives him plenty of spare-time to devote to the French Academy, and to his microscopic experi- ments in biology. These interests plus an occasional game of tennis or football take up most of the time he spends away from his Pre-med work. Tom has demonstrated such ability in his Pre- medical studies as to warrant the appearance of his name on the Dean ' s List for four years. Add to this Tom ' s lively personal- ity and the combination augurs well for a successful future in medicine. :s-w WILLIAM J. DWYER, Jr., A.B. 81 Mountlort Street, Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Class Council 1; Or- chestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, Pres. 4; Sociology Academy 4; German Academy 1, 2; Rifle 1; Music Club, Sec. 4. Bill ' s chief talents are musical. For four years he has been out- standing in the college musical organizations. Entering Boston College upon his graduation from Boston College High, where he was concert-master during his senior year, he has played for four years in the orchestra and band, being president of the lat- ter organization in his senior year. In the same year he also served as secretary of the Music Club. He majored in sociology and was a member of the Sociology Academy. With Joe Condon, he wrote the class song, and in 1938 authored the football song The Eagle Forever. A fine gentleman and a talented musician. Bill is well equipped to pursue his life ' s work. THOMAS M. ECCLESTON, A.B. (HONORS) 1 Rock Avenue, Dorchester, Mass. President Greek Academy 1: Pre-Medical Seminar 4. The men apart at B.C. are the medicine men — they run from classes early, have separate quizzes and with the hundreds of hours of extra work that they so loudly assert are piled on them, they really belong in a class by themselves. It is to this august assembly that Tom Eccleston belongs heart and soul. How he ever found time to leave his amoebae to slip down to the Marine Training Camp at Quantico is a mystery. However he did, and so they say, became quite an expert at rifle and pistol shooting. His personal request to make it short and sweet with no em- bellishments precludes saying anything more than this, except that his 1941 address will be Tufts Medical School. PATRICK J. ENNIS, A.B. 133 Appleton Street, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Mar- quette 1, 2; Sociology Academy 4; Track 1; Rifle 1. Pat is a resident of Cambridge, and entered Boston College upon his graduation from Boston College High. He has majored in sociology, and to further himself in that field he became an active member of the Sociology Academy. His work for the Eu- charistic Committee of the Sodality provides him with some prac- tical experience in social work. He is also interested in good music, and is a member of the Glee Club. On the athletic side, Pat participates in swimming and tennis, and is a close fol- lower of football and hockey. He also enjoys good books, espe- cially those which deal with sociological subjects. In concluding, we wish to extend our wishes that all success may attend this conscientious student in whatever line of endeavor he may enter during life. TIMOTHY M. FAHERTY, A.B. 83 Glencoe Place, Quincy, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Philosophy Academy 3; Sociology Academy 4; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1, 2: Latin Academy 1, 2: Rifle Club 1. With the record of being a four year honor roll man at Cathedral High School in Boston, Tim ' s success at Boston College was a foregone conclusion. During his freshman and sophomore years, his tastes ran to languages, for he was a member in good standing of the French, Greek, and Latin Academies. With the election of Sociology as his major in Junior, he joined the So- ciology Academy as well as the Philosophy group. Armed with his knowledge of human nature, Tim hopes to be successful in the business world. He holds great admiration for good athletes, and he prides himself on his ability to recognize natural ones. However, he has never officially participated in any sport except rifle shooting in his freshman year. EDWARD J. FALLON, A.B. 984 Washington Street, Dorchester, Mass. Fencing 1; French Academy 1; Hockey 1 . Emerging from the rigorous classical training of Boston Latin School, Ed further pursued these liberal studies in electing the A.B. course at B. C. In freshman, he fenced and played hockey and also joined the French Academy. Once in Sophomore, he and Frank Ahearn were called upon to recite two different passages of Latin memory at the same time, much to the amusement of everyone concerned. He is a very smooth and clever dancer, al- though he has not led an extensive social life here at the Heights. Outside of school, and on rainy nights, he likes to bowl or play cards or even punch a few sodas for a change. Majoring in Economics, he hopes some day to become connected with a banking or brokerage business. JOSEPH H. FARREN, Jr., A.B. 45 East Springfield Street, Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Greek Academy 1, 2; German Academy 1, 2; Sociology Academy 4. Joe is not only a good student but he finds time to pursue many interesting and instructive hobbies. A graduate of Boston Col- lege High, where he was awarded the German prize for two suc- cessive years, Joe has continued his interest in that language at the College, where he joined the German Academy. He majored in sociology and is building up a personal library of sociological books. Among other interesting hobbies are his maps of Europe, which he tries to keep up-to-date; his collection of phonograph records, and his fondness for symphonic music, especially that of the Boston Symphony and Pops orchestras. He also plays golf and baseball when he finds time. With such a variety of educa- tional hobbies, Joe should indeed advance in his chosen field of endeavor. BERNARD J. FINAN, Jr., B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 6 Wessex Road, Newton Centre, Mass. Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Spanish Academy 1, 2; Dramatics 1, 2, 3, 4; B.C. Flying Club 4; Social Science Seminar 2; C.A.A. 4. Bernie is perhaps the most widely travelled member of our class, having lived in such distant places as Panama and San Fran- cisco, among others. His frequent changes of residence resulted in his attending three high schools, and he finally graduated from LaSalle College High in Philadelphia. At Boston College, he has majored in economics and may follow an army career. He is a flier in the Civil Aeronautics Corps and has a liking for Dra- matics. Among his favorite sports, he counts tennis and riding, while his intellectual pursuits embrace membership in the Law and Government and Spanish Academies. His interesting life and his varied hobbies make Bernie a truly well-rounded man, and should equip him well for his future work in any field. JOHN J. FINNAN, A.B. 62 Codman Hill Avenue, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 4; Law and Government Acad- emy 4; Economics Academy 4. A screeching of brakes, heavy steps on the corridor floor, the door fhes open, and John has made another class. He came to the College after completing his first two years at the Cross, but was not at all a stranger, being well known to legions of friends made during his days at Boston College High. Since that time, John has made many new friends because of a temperament that is merry, and an enthusiasm which is never raucous but always discreetly restrained. John ' s ambition, they tells us, is to become a successful member of the legal profession, and from our association with him, we can assure you that he has an abundance of natural ability for his chosen field, as well as the industry reguired for law school studies. Jl ' Wf EDMUND F. FINNERTY, Jr., A.B. 640 Newton Street, Chestnut Hill, Mass. Alpha Sigma Nu 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4: Dramatic Society 2, 3, 4; Stylus 2, 3, 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Pre-Med. Seminar 3, 4; Golf 2, 3. Taking up in the Suave Dept. where Sig Somy left off, Ted has estabhshed himself here at the Heights as being a very- polished gentleman. Continuing a well-rounded career begun at Dorchester High, Ted concentrated on Dramatics during his college days, and was elected president of the Dramatic Society during his senior year. He was the author of the skit Life Begins With ' 40, which was presented during Junior Week. Inciden- tally, he and Hector Gai were Co-chairmen of that gala affair last year. He is a member of the honor society Alpha Sigma Nu, as well as of the Cross and Crown Society. For relaxation he likes to play golf, his favorite sport for the last eight years. An ex- cellent dresser, he may often be seen at the best of social affairs. JAMES F. FITZGERALD, B.S. (EDUCATION) 42 Willant Street, Maiden, Mass. Football 1, 2, 3, 4; A. A. Plays 1, 2, 3. After climaxing a glorious three years of football at Maiden with the captaincy of the team in his final year, this mighty mite came here to the Heights to show us how they perform both on the gridiron and in the classroom at Maiden. And a very good show- ing did he give us by playing four years for our glorious Eagles. He even found time to take part in the athletes ' dramatic pro- ductions . If you ' re looking for Jim in your spare time you ' ll find him delving into the deeper mysteries of Botany, his favorite pastime. He worked diligently as chairman of the Senior ball and receives our hearty congratulations for a swell time. We predict a happy future for him if that is a criterion of his work. 2:1 ' Y ANGELO J. FIUMARA, A.B. 75 Endicott Street, Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Italian Academy 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 3, Vice-Pres. 4; Economics Academy 4; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1; Latin Academy 1. A talented public speaker, and authority on political and gov- ernmental affairs is Angelo Fiumara. His scholastic ability was recognized long ago, when he won an eight-year scholarship to B. C. High and Boston College. Interested in languages, he has been a member of four of the language academies here at the Heights. Angelo has frequently given public speeches in politics, and formerly was a speaker for the Italian Hour on the radio. These activities are external manifestations of Angelo ' s deep in- terest in governmental affairs. This interest was also channelized through participation in the affairs of the Economics and Law and Government Academies. Angelo intends to go to law school next year, and he is unusually well-equipped for success in the legal profession. GEORGE A. FLYNN, B.S. (PHYSICS) 88 Wallingford Road, Boston, Mass. Heights 1, 2, 3, 4; Philosophy Academy 3; Ricci Math Academy 2, 3; Sub Turri 4; German Academy 2, 3. Ace cameraman for the Heights through four years of service, George has embelhshed many of the front pages of that pubhca- tion with his fine and professional-hke pictures. Because of his unusual proficiency at photography, he was chosen as Photo- graphic Editor of the Sub Turri. A graduate of Brighton High School, George came to Boston College and immediately be- came known for his keen sense of humor accompanied by a hearty laugh. His distinguished laugh can make even the poorest bit of wit seem funny. He majored in Physics, and was a member of the Rifle and Track teams in his Freshman and Soph- omore years; however, in later years, he devoted himself to higher things such as the Philosophy Academy, German Acad- emy and the Ricci Math Academy. ji-y JOSEPH W. FOLEY, A.B. 10 Ticknor Street, South Boston, Mass. A. A. Rep. 2, 3, Pres., Student A. A. 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Ger- man Academy 1, 2; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4. Diminutive Joe certainly has led a very colorful career at Boston College. He has always been an A.A. representative, and during his Senior year he was President of the Student A.A. Besides being a member of the German Academy and Chemist ' s Club at various times, he also appeared among those who belonged to the Glee Club and Sodality. He ran the 600 for Boston College High, but hung up the spikes upon entrance to College. He is a member of the Pre-Medical course, and in order to become a more successful doctor, he has endeavored to study human na- ture with an eye towards making everyone his friend. He has three brothers, all of whom graduated from Boston College within the last fifteen years. PAUL V. FOLEY, A.B. 951 Walnut Street, Newton Highlands, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Latin Academy 1, 2, 3, 4. Paul is blessed with one of those contagiously amiable disposi- tions that makes one feel Christmas will soon be here. But be- sides being an ebullient prop man for Santa Claus, Paul must have discovered some secret fountain of youth. Somehow it ' s hard to imagine Paul as ever being anything but youthful. His mirthful eyes and resounding laugh are a real tonic. It seems only fitting that Paul should major in Latin. That deep rolling voice he can affect so well is perfectly suited to the sonorous rumblings of the tongue of Cicero and Horace. He is also very useful when it comes to translating Latin inscriptions on build- ings and monuments which are difficult for an ordinary student to decipher without assistance of one kind or another. lll ' Wf RAYMOND P. FOLEY, A.B. 20 Fremont Street, Brockton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Spanish Academy 1, 2, 3, 4. Known as the Deacon to his intimates, Ray is one of Boston Col- lege ' s Brockton contingent. A member of Doctor Azuola ' s famous Spanish Academy for the last four years, Deac is one of those who have great faith in improved cultural and business rela- tions between South America and the United States. He has a very dry sense of humor, which is manifested only to his own circle, Don Mulcahy and company, to the great loss of others. During the winter he applied his knowledge of physics to the removal of the St. Valentine ' s Day snow. Deac perfected a snow shovel technique that combined the maximum of results with the minimum of effort. Ray ' s chief extra-curricular interest was the Sodality, and he attended the meetings of that organization faithfully for four years. FRANCIS C. FORD, A.B. 16 Hulbert Street, Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Von Pastor History Academy 3, 4: League of Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Frank is the little man with the hearty laugh who holds forth in the old lunchroom among the other intellectuals. He doesn ' t seem to take the rabid discussions so seriously as the rest of us, but likes to inject a note of banter when the words are flying thick and fast. Frank ' s cheery manner and his appreciative response to humor make him an ideal companion for anyone who has genuine humor to offer. Frank ' s chief extra-scholastic activity at the Heights has been the Sodality, while baseball and tennis also command some of his attention. Interested in history even at Boston College High School, Frank has majored in that subject at the college, and devoted much time to the history of medieval symbolism. ROBERT H. FORD, B.S. (HISTORY) 46 Church Street, Milton, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 2; Glee Club 1, 2; Von Pastor History Academy 1; Social Science Seminar Pres. 2; Sociology Academy 4. Bob comes from Milton, where he graduated from Milton High, and has various interests in many fields ranging all the way from dancing to philosophy. He has become well known for his ability to argue upon any topic that happens to be of interest to his many friends. His keen wit, along with his pleasant person- ality, prove valuable assets in his arguments. He is an active member in the Academies, and was President of the Social Science Seminar, which was his favorite. He will have earned a degree in B. S. of History when he graduates in June, and it is in this line that he seems to have the greatest interest for the future. THOMAS J. FORD, A.B. 36 Cypress Street, Brookline, Mass. German Academy 1; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Rifle 4; Yacht Club, Capt. 1, 2, 3; Treas. 4. Following in the footsteps of his father, who graduated from Bos- ton College in 1904, Tom entered the Pre-Medical course here at the Heights in 1936. Continuing the creditable scholastic record begun at Brookline High, he was one of the few who survived the gruelling Pre-Medical schedule. He also found time to par- ticipate in such activities as the German Academy, the Chemist ' s Club, and the Rifle Team. He was one of the founders of the Bos- ton College Yacht Club, and Captain of the club for three years. In this latter capacity, he sailed on the Charles River Basin in inter-collegiate competition. He likes to play and watch any sport, especially intra-mural contests, for Tom thinks that there is no greater builder of college spirit than intramural sports. 15 ' if JOHN E. FORISTALL, A.B. 22 Charles Street, Auburndale, Mass. Sodality 4; Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Latin Academy 1. John prepared for college at Newton High School. There he gave definite promise of developing into an excellent musician. This promise has been realized, and in John Foristall, B. C. boasts one of the state ' s finest young pianists. His musical accomplishments are not confined to playing alone, as he has composed several songs and is an arranger in his own right. Whenever an argu- ment concerning music arises, J. E. is inevitably sought for its solution. His talents are not exclusively musical, as he is a good student and enjoys the enviable reputation of never having missed a football game in his four years at the Heights. His ath- letic endeavors are limited to tennis and golf. After graduation he intends to devote himself to music, both as a pianist and a composer. JAMES R. FULTON, A.B. 19 High Street, Norwood, Mass. Sodality 4; Fulton 4; Marquette 2; Von Pastor History Academy 1. Looking back at the high school days, we see that Jim was in- cHned to studies rather than the extra-curricular activities, but he made up for this outside the school by participating in all sports. His interest right now, is in the formation of Catholic Youth Societies, particularly in his home town; and he hopes to see the C.Y.O. firmly established in Norwood soon. His favorite subject is history in which he is writing his thesis. As a member of the Von Pastor History Academy, he has enjoyed the meetings and listened with great interest to the many historical discus- sions. He was also a member of the Marquette and Fuhon De- bating Societies. Jim is a quiet person whose pleasant smile and good disposition are encouraging and stimulating. J5 p? THOMAS I. FUREY, A.B. 121 Arsenal Street, Watertown, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Greek Academy 1; Junior Pic 3. Always on the go, Tom has all the energy usually associated with red heads. He is an ardent devotee of the art of dancing, and may be found at most of the big social events during the college year. He is never at a loss for words, and will discuss any topic on which a companion wishes an opinion. Furthermore, he has contributed to the Junior Pic and the Sub Turri, while re- maining a faithful Sodalist for four years. Red is one of those fellows who seems to be genuinely interested in anything which is said or done at the college, and his red thatch is often seen in the midst of a group in the luncheon or rotunda. After gradua- tion. Red hopes to enter the teaching profession. HECTOR G. GAL A.B. 21 Central Street, Auburndale, Mass. Gold Key 3; Rifle 1, 2; Fencing 1, 2, 3, Captain 4; Riding Club, Pres. 3, 4; Military Club 1, 2; Co-Chairman of Junior Week. Heckie, as he was familiarly called, is a true friend of all and a live member of this class of ' 40. He rates tops in all sports, and on a wintry weekend may be seen skiing skillfully on the treach- erous slopes of the White Mountains. He also finds time to direct and captain the successes of the Fencing Team. He doesn ' t con- fine his time entirely to sports, but is active at all social events, and consequently was Co-Chairman of Junior week. He has a contagious sense of humor which reached its high point of in- spiration in the flag raising incident at Holy Cross. Interested in all things mechanical, Hec spent most of his spare time racing outboard motorboats and working on automobiles. mm THOMAS J. GAIR, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 154 Whitfield Street, Dorchester, Mass. Class Council 1; Sodality 2, 3, 4; Radio Club 1, 2, 3; Ricci Math Academy 2; Ger- man Academy 1, 2; Physics Seminar 3; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4. Hailing from Dorchester High School, Tom left behind him an enviable record in the field of sports and scholarship. After en- tering the college, he quickly established his popularity, and was elected to the class council in his first year. Tom majored in organic chemistry, and is one of those wild-eyed men in the acid-stained smocks who make the labs in the Science Building hum with activity long after everyone else has left for home. Tom showed his scientific bent of mind by engaging in the activ- ities of the Ricci Math Academy, the Physics Seminar and the Chemist ' s Club, not to mention the Radio Club. Lest this heavy diet of scientific activity get him down, Tom relaxes by taking in a good cinema, or engaging in an impromptu game of foot- ball or baseball. FRANCIS P. GALLAGHER, A.B. 4 Moultrie Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4. Short in stature, but tall in accomplishments is this representa- tive of Dorchester. While at Dorchester High, he played second base on the baseball team, and continued his activities around the keystone sack during his freshman year here at the Heights. For the last three years, however, he decided to concentrate on scholastic rather than on athletic pursuits. He majored in Busi- ness during his junior year, and consequently took up such studies as Accounting, and Money and Banking. He is essen- tially a silent fellow, and plays cards with almost stoical com- posure. However, his bowling technique is much more animated. An accomplished gentleman and a fine athlete, Frank is sure to make his mark in the outside world. GEORGE V. GALLAGHER, A.B. (HONORS) 47 St. Margaret Street, Dorchester, Mass. Class Council 2, 3, 4; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4: Sodalit y 1, 2, 3, 4; Fulton 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Vice-Pres. Philosophy Academy 3; Law and Government Acad- emy 3; Economics Academy 3, Vice-Pres. 4. G. V. is one of the most popular members of the class, and de- servedly so. If in our four years there was need of someone to fill a vacant office, it was George who was nominated. For three years he has been elected to the Class Council, and he also be- came vice-president of the Economics Academy in his Senior year. It is rumored that when he went to the Philosophy Acad- emy in Junior to see what transpired there, his gift worked over- time, and he left the meeting as vice-president. Majoring in Economics, he has prefaced his Law School career with four years of debating, Marquette and Fulton, climaxed by his selec- tion as the best debater at the Cambridge Lyceum debate in his senior year. GERALD J. GALLAGHER, A.B. 112 Aberdeen Avenue, Cambridge, Mass. Class Council 2; Gold Key 3: Sodality 4; Radio Club 2: Track 1; Yacht 1. The ever-accommodating Gerry came to Boston College from Cambridge High and Latin School. Quiet and generous by na- ture, Gerry is well known only by a circle of close friends. But they appreciate the calm and steady manner in which he ap- plies himself to whatever task is at hand. Gerry was a member of the Class Council in his Sophomore year, and also gained entrance into the Gold Key society. His favorite sport is track, and he has competed in this sport in high school as well as in college. Gerry feels that the best method of relaxation from a day of hard work is to take in a good movie. The hard work in Gerry ' s case is mostly in the subject of History, in which he has majored. 15 ' rt PHILIP F. GARITY, A.B. (HONORS) 21 Dale Avenue, Quincy, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1; Fulton 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Economics Academy 3, 4, Pres. 4; French Academy 1: Greek Academy 1, 2; Sub Turri 4. One of the more accomplished of the B. C. High graduates to be matriculated at Boston College in the class of 1940, Phil has demonstrated his ability in many fields. His forte is economics and business, and he often lectures on these topics for the Eco- nomics Academy. He is an inveterate companion of John Gosse- lin, and together they form a veritable bottomless well of in- formation on economic affairs. Always well-dressed, Phil pre- sents a most business-like appearance which will be of ad- vantage to him when he embarks on his legal career. Phil usually prefers to listen to discussions, but is no mean verbal antagonist when called on to enter the argument. Attendance at law school is his aim at the present time. HENRY F. GATELY, Jr., A.B. 43 Phillips Avenue, Lynn, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1; Rifle Team 1; Member of Marine Reserves. Hailing from Lynn, Henry has upheld the best traditions of that city. He is known to his friends as Smilie, because of the con- stant smile that lights his face. A member of that fine body of men known as the Gyrenes, Smilie spent the last two sum- mers down at Quantico, Virginia, learning the difference be- tween Squads East and Squads West in preparation for that eventful day when he will receive his commission as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps Reserves. Smilie majored in Economics, and was as enthusiastic as any of us in cheering the B. C. football and hockey teams on to victory. Best of luck in the future. Devil Dog! k Si J!I-f i ANTHONY C. GIANGRECO, A.B. 217 Lexington Street, East Boston, Mass. Italian Academy 1, 2; German Academy 1, 2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Chemist ' s Club 4; Crystal 4; Rifle Club 2, 3, 4. Though taking the pre-med course, Tony often found time for a Httle study in law and government. Tony was especially well- versed in the history and theory of Italian government, and often held forth on this subject during the many stimulating discus- sions which took place after the sophomore rhetoric classes. A serious and intent student, Tony has devoted most of his time to his pre-med course, which is one of the most exacting in the col- lege. Medicine is not only a vocation, but an avocation with him, and such determination and sincerity will take Tony far in his chosen profession, for if his fidelity to his books is any criterion there will be few more earnest doctors than he. JOHN B. GIBBONS, A.B. 32 Mapleton Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Philosophy Academy 3; Law and Government Academy 4; Ger- man Academy 1; Golf 1; Rifle 1. John, a graduate of St. Columbkille High School, came to the Heights from Brighton. One whom the noisier student would describe as the quiet type, he won many friends for himself during his years at Boston College. He took active part in the minor sports of golf and the rifle team in his freshman year, but later was content to confine his athletic activities to loyal cheer- ing at many of the varsity football and hockey games. As a freshman he also joined the German Academy, later branching out into the Philosophy and the Law and Government acad- emies. He has majored in business subjects at Boston College, and plans to continue studying in graduate business school with an eye to one day being an auditor. THOMAS P. GILL, A.B. 13 Wamesit Street, LoweU, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Dramatic Society 2, 3; Mar- quette 2; Greek Academy 1, 2. Every class has its quota of fun-loving pranksters. Tom is per- haps one of our most accomplished along these lines. Many a class has been lightened by his irrepressible outbreaks, as well as entertained by his humorous repartee with the professor. Withal, Tom is the possessor of a very engaging personality, and is one of the most widely known fellows on the campus. At Keith Academy, he was an excellent student as well as a member of the basketball team. However, his favorite sports still remain swimming and skating. On the cultural side, Tom confined his efforts chiefly to acting in the Greek plays of 1938 and 1939, al- though his interest in Hellenic language and culture in general was shown throughout his first three years on the Heights. In the classroom, Tom has specialized in the social sciences. WILLIAM P. GILLIGAN, B.S. (HISTORY) 14 Alcott Street, AUston, Mass. Class Council 2, 4; Sodality 3, 4; Glea Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Capt. 4. Seldom has an athlete come to B. C. with such a reputation for prowess in track and field events, and seldom has an athlete lived up so completely to his reputation. At Brighton High School, he broke nine field event records and captured numerous run- ning honors. Great things were expected of him in college, and he more than lived up to expectations. He was a mainstay of the Boston College track team for four years, and earned the cap- taincy of that sport in his senior year. Yet, strange to say. Bill has many other interests besides track, and chief among these are swimming and singing. His baritone voice has made him the logical successor to John Cronin as the Tibbett of the Track Team. Bill ' s favorite study is history, in which he is majoring. ROBERT F. GLADU, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 15 Railroad Street, Ashland, Mass. Cross and Crown 4: Sodality 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Radio Club 1, 2, 3; Chemist ' s Club 1, 2, 3, 4: Rifle 1. This quiet and unassuming fellow is noted for his ability to be on time for the first class every day in the year, although he commutes all the way from Ashland. At B. C, Bob followed the scientific bent in his nature which he had first developed at Ash- land High. This interest is illustrated by his activity for four years in the Chemist ' s Club, as well as by his hobby of radios. He is particularly skilled in building model boats that are radio con- trolled, and can talk for hours on this, his favorite subject. It is easy to see that with this background. Bob has a head start in gaining a position in either the field of Chemistry or that of radio. THOMAS J. GLENNON, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 226 Summer Street, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 2; Fulton 1; Heights 1; Stylus 1; German Academy 1; Sociology Academy 4; Yacht 4, Commodore. Commodore Tom has a great liking for boats and sailing, and while visiting the New York World ' s Fair, he spent a good deal of time inspecting the nautical section of the industrial exhibits. In the summer he may be seen sailing around the waters of Na- hant. The title of Commodore was conferred on him by the Yacht Club, and when he is not busy with scholastic duties, he is sail- ing on the Charles. Last year, he participated in the Intercol- legiate Yacht Regatta on the Charles River. Besides sailing, Tom was active in scholastic and social affairs. As a member of the Junior Prom Committee, he had charge of the favors which met the approval of all those who attended the Prom. JOHN E. GOODMAN, A.B. 86 Oakmere Street, West Roxbury, Mass. Vice-Pres. Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Captain and Coach, Yacht Club 3, 4. One of the few expert yachtsmen at the college, Skipper Good- man frequently may be seen piloting a boatload of B. C. sailors on the upper or lower Charles River. Even the unpredictable east winds for which our coast is famous, are handled with ease by this hardy salt from the far north. John even handled a canoe with dexterity, and is successor to Al Horsfal as class expert on rugby. On the intellectual side, John spared time from his Pre- Medical classes to aid in writing the Junior Week Play. He has many other interests, among which are European economics, so- cial activities and music. The only desire John cannot fulfill at B. C. is to go on one of his hunting and fishing expeditions. JOHN F. GOSSELIN, A.B. (HONORS) 11 Belvidere Street, Boston, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Latin Academy 1; Fulton 3; Marquette 2; Sub Turri 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; French Academy 2. John is a member of the Garity-Gossehn partnership, which was responsible for the success of the activities section of the Sub Turri. The administrative abihty John showed in performing this task indicates that he has derived benefit from his courses in Business. John is also an accomplished speaker and has been a mainstay of the Economics Lecture team for two years. He does his work thoroughly and efficiently, whether it be in studies, speaking or Sodality. John is a very interesting and informing conversationalist on political and economic affairs, though on these subjects Ed Barrett disputes many of his tenets. John is preparing for a legal career, and he appears to be eminently fitted for that profession. JOSEPH P. GRANDFIELD, B.S. (PHYSICS) 124 Brown Avenue, Roslindale, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 3, 4; Dra- matic Society 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2; Ass ' t. Sports Editor 3, 4; Radio Club 3; German Academy 1, 2; Physics Seminar 3, 4; Track, Ass ' t. Manager 1, 2, 3. This sports enthusiast came to the Heights from B. C. High, where he excelled in mathematics for three years. He is perhaps most widely known among the students as a sports-writer and prog- nosticator par-excellence for the Heights. He writes about all sports, and personally participates in track and tennis. This healthy interest in sports is balanced by a certain histrionic abil- ity which he has displayed for the last three years in dramatic productions. His desire for clarity leads him to ask many ques- tions and initiate frequent discussions about difficult points in the philosophy class. Joe is working for his B.S. in Physics, and intends to be an aeronautical engineer. EDWARD M. GREELEY, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 7 Connecticut Avenue, Somerville, Mass. Secretary of Class 2, 4; Class Council 1, 2, 3, 4; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4: Sodality 2, 3, 4; Marquette, Sec. 1, Pres. 2; Fulton 3, Sec. 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Fencing 1; Alpha Sigma Nu 4; Crystal, As- soc. Ed. 3, Managing Ed. 4. This distinguished student, speaker and participant in school affairs, came to the Heights from Somerville High School where he served as class president. He specialized in Chemistry at Bos- ton College, and hopes to become an industrial chemist. A mem- ber of the Chemist ' s Club, he served as Associate and then Man- aging Editor of the Crystal. Yet this busy gentleman found time to hold class office on two occasions; served as secretary and president of the Marquette, secretary of the Fulton, and acted on the Class Council for four years. Among other honors, he holds the Gold Key, and membership in the Cross and Crown and in Alpha Sigma Nu, national honor society. Ed still has leisure to enjoy tennis and take candid camera shots of his fel- low chemists. :ni ' Y PAUL J. GREELEY, A.B. 69 Boston Avenue, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Marquette 1, 2, Pres. 2; Fulton 3, 4, Pres. 4; Dramatic Society 1, 2. Paul prepared at St. Clement High in his home city, where he won the Diocesan Debating Championship and a scholarship to Boston College. Paul has majored in economics, a subject most useful in his debates and lectures. Tribute to his prowess as a speaker is his winning of the Gargan Medal in the Marquette Prize Debate, and his selection as chairman of the Sodality Lec- ture Committee. He holds the distinction of having served as president of both the Marquette and the Fulton Debating So- cieties. His fine record won for him membership in the Cross and Crown. Still active in the affairs of his high school, he is presi- dent of St. Clement ' s Alumni. Naturally, we expect to see Paul in some field where his oratorical ability can be utilized to ad- vantage. CHARLES E. GREEN, Jr., B.S. (EDUCATION) 119 Bennett Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4. One of the most dynamic personalities in our class is herewith presented. Perhaps, he is best known to most students for his out- standing achievements on the college track and baseball teams. But he is also an active participant in football, swimming, hockey and golf. He interests himself actively in all social affairs, while dramatics, music and riding also receive his attention. Such all-inclusive activity is only natural, since his career at Brighton High School was replete with success in numerous fields. Charlie did his bit for the football team by conducting his indoor football rallies in the cafeteria. Charlie ' s college career may be accurately summed up by saying that he was an active participant in all school functions, and the latter includes cul- tural as well as athletic and social events. f0 f DANIEL J. GRIFFIN, A.B. 93 Belmont Street, Cambridge, Mass. Marquette 1; Heights 2, 3, 4; Junior Pic 3; Sub Turri 4. Every group of any size to-day must have among its members an expert on swing music and swing bands. Dan Griffin is a mem- ber of the Class of 1940 who qualifies for this position. In the Heights every week, he and Joe Grandfield review the latest recordings of swing bands for the student body. Dan also keeps a critical eye on the international situation, for he enjoys dis- cussing world affairs. In the field of athletics, Dan turns his atten- tion to baseball and table-tennis. He has interested himself in most of the undergraduate publications of the college, and was a staff member of the Heights, the Junior Pic, and the Sub Turri. Majoring in Business, Dan works his way through college by jerking sodas. WILLIAM J. GRIFFIN, B.S. (HISTORY) 14 Moseley Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Von Pastor History Acad- emy 1, 2, 3, 4; History Seminar 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4. Bill is one of the many faithful sons of Boston College who hail from Dorchester. Rain or shine, he always has that pleasing and jovial way about him which seems to have gained for him many true and lasting friends. Even on the gridiron, when things were going tough, one could always see on Bill ' s face a smile that seemed to put new life and feeling into a person. Bill was a tower of strength on the Eagle elevens during the last two suc- cessful campaigns. Bill received his secondary education at Bos- ton College High School, where he was rated as all-scholastic in football. The role Bill played in Father Sullivan ' s melodrama in ' 38 will never be forgotten by those who saw it. lii ' Y JOSEPH A. GRODEN, A.B. 45 Garfield Street, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Von Pastor History Acad- emy 3, 4; Heights 1, 2; Stylus 4; Soci- ology Academy 4; Hockey 1; Yacht 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2. Joe came to us from Cambridge High and Latin School where he played a fine game of hockey, following closely, in this respect, his three brothers. It is well remembered by the members of his class, particularly those in Sophomore F, how much they en- joyed themselves at his family ' s summer home at Green Harbor. Joe is a powerful swimmer and a prominent member of the Boston College Yacht Club. In fact, he was one of those ambi- tious students who were partly responsible for the establishment of yachting as an intercollegiate sport here at Boston College. Although Joe has not revealed his plans for the future, it is known that a career in the Diplomatic Service would appeal to him. EDMUND J. GRUSKOWSKI, A.B. (HONORS) 82 Fifth Street, Cambridge, Mass. Class Council 1; Cross and Crown 4; So- dality 1, 2, 3, 4. Ed is one of the students whose brilHant scholastic achievements enhance B. C. ' s reputation of turning out men of true scholarship and intelligence. An earnest seeker after knowledge, Ed spares himself no effort to really master any required subject. Conse- quently, he is always well prepared to answer questions about his studies. Among other honors, he won the prize in Classics at Boston College High School, and his interest in classic subjects is still strong, as is evidenced by the fact that he is majoring in Latin. His leisure time, he spends as a spectator at football, base- ball or hockey games. Music, also shares some of his time and interest, while discussions on philosophy and education find him as a frequent participant. Ed ' s seriousness of purpose will be a valuable asset in later life. EDWARD J. HANDY, A.B. 12 James Street, Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 4; Associate Editor, Crystal 4; Latin Academy 1,2; Ger- man Academy 1, 2; Pre-Medical Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 4; Rifle Club 1, 2, Cap- tain 3, 4; Fencing 1, 2; Yacht Club 2, 3; Sub Turri 4; C. A. A. 4; B, C. Flying Club 4: One Act Plcyshop 1, 2. Another member of our select group of Pre-Medical students, Ed prepared at Boston Latin School, where he was a member of the track and rifle teams. These sports are still his favorites, and he has captained the Rifle team for two years at B. C. In his senior year, he was associate editor of The Crystal, a magazine which we hope will never appear in Ed ' s collection of first edi- tions of magazines which have failed. He is also one of the Stu- dent Pilots, under the Civil Aeronautics Program. Yet, this list of activities does not give a complete picture of Ed ' s fiery per- sonality, and the intensity with which he expounds his opinions. JAMES D. HANIFY, A.B. 413 High Street, Fall River, Mass. Heights 2; French Academy 4. Most people agree that Jim ' s outstanding virtue is his generosity, for he is wilhng to do anything for his friends or his college at any time. Doubtless Jim will be long remembered here under the ivory towers for his lengthy feature article in the Heights at the time of the Diamond Jubilee, when Sophocles ' Antigone was so beautifully produced. Jim ' s scholarly work of translation, syn- opsis, and interpretation was an important factor in the artistic success of the presentation. Jim went to Durfee High School in Fall River, and then to Holy Cross. Fortunately, he soon became aware of his error and joined the Roaring ' Forties when we were all sophomores. Eventually, Jim plans to study law. He is deeply interested in debating and dramatics, and attends a great many collegiate and professional plays and debates. MICHAEL F. HARKINS, A.B. 74 Jamaica Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Greek Academy 1; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Frank is the quiet, scholarly type of student who says little ex- cept what is worth saying. A graduate of Boston College High, where he was an outstanding student, he has continued his fine work at the college. To cite one good instance, we might mention that 98 in the Ethics mid-year. Frank has a literary turn of mind and has specialized in English at the Heights. He enjoys classical literature immensely. He follows the autumn pastime very faith- fully, naturally being more interested in the Eagles of B. C. than in other athletic teams. He was a member of the Greek Academy during his first year at college. Such is the personable, modest, and erudite young man from Jamaica Plain whose future plans are as yet unknown to us, but the success of which is predicted by all of us. RICHARD P. HARRISON, B.S. (EDUCATION) 27 Oxford Street, Maiden, Mass. Philosophy Academy 3, 4; Sociology Acad- emy 3; French Academy 1, 2; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; Education Seminar 1, 2, 3, 4. Handsome Dick is a member of the Seven Blocks of Gothic, and may be called the cleanest-cut block of them all. His football talents were recognized at Maiden High School (where he was All-Scholastic), and at Moses Brown Prep School. His pass- snatching ability is his chief asset, and his most valuable con- tribution to the success of our football teams. Ice-skating com- mands most of Dick ' s active interest after the football season is ended, but he enjoys watching any contest which involves athletic skill. Dick is also a follower of the social whirl, and cuts as fine a figure on the dance floor as he does on the gridiron. In studies, he is chiefly interested in Education and Sociology, and is majoring in the former. Ill f Wf ARTHUR J. HASSETT, Jr., B.S. (BIOLOGY) 26 Pierce Road, Weymouth, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4; Heights 4; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 4; German Academy 1, 2. Art is one of that very small and select group of seniors who are seeking a Bachelor of Science degree in biology. Like most of his fellow classmates in this course, he is very meticulous and exact, but not to the extent that he has failed to make firm friends with many who know him. Although taking a pre-medical course, and burdened with the worries and hard work which that course entails, Art has indulged in many extra-curricular activities, has been a consistent honors man, and a prominent figure at many social affairs. He earned membership both in the Gold Key and in Cross and Crown. Art plans to enter Tufts Medical next fall, and pursue the life of a physician. FRANCIS E. HASSEY, A.B, 1 1 Downer Avenue, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1; Writer ' s Club 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; Latin Academy 1. Frank is one of B. C. ' s more noted travelers. On one of his trips through New England, he discovered what he describes as A bit of Heaven off the coast of Maine, Peaks Island. This is the place where the Hasseys of the future will spend their days. Frank graduated from B.C. High, where he was an honor student and an excellent baseball player. Upon entering college, he abandoned athletics to devote more time to his studies and lec- turing. In the latter activity, he has been especially successful, and is a member of the Sodality lecture team. In accordance with his desire to travel, Frank hopes some day to be a pilot, an ambition which we hope he realizes. Incidentally, during his four years of school he has earned the reputation of being one of the school ' s leading socialites. HUGH W. HAYES, A.B. 47 Dunster Rd., Jamaica Plain, Mass, Sodality 3, 4; Philosophy 3; Von Pastor History Academy 3. Soft-spoken Hugh is one of the most hkeable fellows in the se- nior class. Although he keeps pretty much to himself, he is known and appreciated in the circle of his own friends. He and Paul Brooks collaborate in their attempts to master the intri- cacies of a balance sheet in accounting. Hugh is somewhat more of a cosmopolite than most of us, for he has spent thirteen years of his life in Wisconsin. He came to Boston College from Mission High School, where he was interested in golf, football, and base- ball. At Boston College, however, his major subject, economics, has commanded most of his attention. His tentative plans for the future include entrance to a graduate school of business. EDWARD J. HEALEY, A.B. 715 East Second Street, So. Boston, Mass. Gold Key 3, Sec ' y--Treasurer: Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2, 3, Pres. 1; Pre-Med. Semi- nar 4: Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Hockey 1; Baseball 1, 4. Ed is one of the busiest members in the Pre-Medical course. He seldom has a period free from class work, yet he finds time to engage in many extra-curricular activities, as well as attend all the social functions. At Boston Latin School, Ed was a star baseball player on a championship team and here at Boston Col- lege, he engaged in the sport for two years. Although partial to baseball and hockey, Ed is an avid follower of all sports. As a consistent honors man, he has earned membership in the Gold Key and the Cross and Crown honor societies. Still, a more illus- trious accomplishment in the eyes of those who saw it, was his masterly histrionic display in the German Play during the Ju- bilee Celebration of 1938. Jl ' Wf ROBERT L. HEALEY, A.B. G Conwell Street, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 4; Stylus 4; Yacht Club 3, 4. Although this friendly fellow devotes much attention and stu- dious effort to his work in history, he still has time to follow the sports parade very closely. As a result, he knows the batting averages of most of our major league stars, and only wishes he could remember history dates as well. Faithful attendance at Sodality meetings has characterized his four years at the col- lege. A more esoteric group, the yachting club, has claimed his interest in the last two years. But Bob ' s chief diversion, prompted no doubt by his interest in history, is reading biographies of little known or unappreciated men. If all goes well. Bob will con- tinue his study in history at some graduate school, and even- tually grace some classroom as a professor. THEODORE J. HEASLIP, A.B. 13 Park Street, Lynn, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Von Pastor History Academy 1; Sociology Academy 4; Yacht 3, 4; Baseball Manager 1, 2, 3; Varsity Manager 4. Ted, a student in sociology, has certainly put his training into practice, for he hasn ' t missed a social function in four years, while his faithfulness to baseball as a manager has been note- worthy. Ted has a wide variety of interests, but particularly de- sires to travel extensively. He has a special interest in the State of Virginia, and no doubt will be found in that section of the country frequently in the future. Teddy will go far, we know, be- cause embodied in his character there is the sincerity which will make him many friends, and the determination and ambition which will insure his future. We were fortunate to meet Ted, and hope that he will always have the best of things, the cream of life. ROBERT V. HENDERSON, A.B. (HONORS) 37 Orchard Street, Lynn, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Vice-Pres. 4; French Acadmey 1, 2; Greek Academy 1; Pre-medical Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 4. This tall and fiery gentleman was one of the leading thespians of the B. C. Dramatic Society for four full years. During that time he starred in many Shakespearean and modern comedies, but perhaps his best performance was given in the role of Petruchio in The Taming of the Shrew. Bob also aided the Dramatic So- ciety in his position as vice-president of that organization in his senior year. Although besieged on all sides with requests for exhibitions of his dramatic talent. Bob managed to become a leader in the Pre-medical group socially and scholastically. This is somewhat of an accomplishment, for Bob also supplemented his class work with activity in the Pre-medical Seminar and the Chemist ' s Club. WALTER C. HERLIHY, A.B. 20 Fainwood Circle, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Ass ' t Business Manager, Junior Pic 3; Latin Academy 1, 2. Tall and good-natured, Walter has created a favorable impres- sion while he has been here at the Heights. Graduating from Cambridge Latin School in ' 36 after a successful career there, he came to Boston College with the obvious purpose of getting as much out of college as possible. Since he possesses a rare and highly original sense of humor, he has been a source of enter- tainment to his many acquaintances and friends. Majoring in Government, he brought his lesser known but equally sharp mental qualities to the Law and Government Academy and the Economics Academy. He has played the saxophone in the col- lege band for four years, and has also been a member of the Sodality and the French Academy. l::- tf OWEN T. HILLBERG, A.B. 14 Montvale Road, Wellesley Hills, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Dramatic Society 2; Or- chestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Stylus 4; Hockey 1; Yacht 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4. A definite check to any obscure remarks of the teachers, Owen arrived from Wellesley High, and made every class one of en- joyment and life, throughout our four years. Junior Philosophy was his special subject, and a clarification of any and all lec- tures which needed elaboration was brought about by Owen ' s searching objections. Owen has played on many intramural teams, and was certainly one of the main reasons why the Stylus beat the Heights in the 1939 game. It would never do to pass over Owen ' s hockey ability, for he is outstanding in that game, as well. If Owen is as faithful to his future work in business as he was to the band and the orchestra, we know his success will be assured. JOHN F. HOGAN, A.B. (HONORS) 1058 Essex Street, Lawrence, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Fulton 3; Writer ' s Club 4; Economics Academy 3. John is another member of the Lawrrence contingent, which in- cludes Bourget, Shannon and sundry others. Tall and powerfully built, he engages in all sports from archery to water-polo. He gave an impressive exhibition of baseball-throwing during the Junior Week field day. Even as a spectator at football games, he is able to outshout practically everyone except that peerless master of noise-making, Frank Smith. John ' s chief interest how- ever, is English literature. He is majoring in English, and even reads English drama and poetry in his spare time to broaden his knowledge of these subjects. He is better known to his class- mates for his clear (?) exposition of corrective justice in the Ethics Seminar. -i-; ! LAWRENCE H. HOWE, A.B. 73 Farragut Road, South Boston, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3, 4; Track 1, 2; Member of Marine Reserves. Allow us to introduce another Gyrene in the person of Larry Howe who has his eye on that commission he will receive from Uncle Sam upon graduation. Under the tower, Larry applied himself diligently to his books, and, as a result, the appearance of his name on the Dean ' s List became commonplace. He ma- jored in Math, so that Calculus, Differential Eguations, Vector Analysis, and all the other mysteries of Higher Mathematics hold no difficulty for Larry. Although he never went out for the baseball team here at the college, Larry is a sandlot star who has seen plenty of action on the Park Department diamonds. Larry ' s ability can not possibly go unrewarded out in the world, if his success in studies and sports is any criterion. PAUL B. HURLEY, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 17 Willow Street, Belmont, Mass. Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4: Heights 1, 2. 3, 4; Golf 1. Sub Turri 4. As one of the students who was responsible for the excellent photographs that have appeared in the Heights, Paul turned his hobby to the advantage of the school. We believe that he has set some sort of a record in the fact that he has photographed the College over a hundred times. Paul eventually intends to pursue his interest as a profession. On many week-ends one could find Paul executing sitzmarks down the snowy northern slopes of the White Mts. To further his interest in classical music he has been a member of the Glee Club for the past four years. As an active member of the Law and Gov ' t. Academy, Paul was elected to the office of Treasurer, and under his able guidance, the Acad- emy had a very successful banquet. JOSEPH D. JOSEPH, B.S. (EDUCATION) 26 Germain Avenue, Quincy, Mass. Band 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Sociology Academy 4. The class comedian, who brought more laughs to the members of the Class of 1940 than could any other of their classmates, is popular Joe Joseph. There are few, if any, members of the class, who will ever forget his performance in the Junior Week play. There could have been any number of stars in that play and they could have been as great as Alfred Lunt or Arliss himself, but Joe would still have stolen the show. At every dance or col- lege function, Joe added something to the fun and jollity of the evening or day. He majored in Education, played in the college band and also got in a bit of extra extra-curricular activity as a member of Phil Thompson ' s jazz band. WILLIAM F. JOY, A.B. 36 Lowden Avenue, Somerville, Mass. Class Pres. 4, Vice-Pres. 1; Class Council 3; Gold Key 3; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Mar- quette 1, 2; Fulton 3, Vice-Pres. 4; Cheer- leader 1, 2, 3, Head Cheer-leader 4. It would be difficult to find a senior who has worked more tire- lessly and successfully for the good of our class than Bill Joy, the president of our senior class. Not only as an officer of the class, but as an inspiring cheerleader and representative debater, has Bill contributed to the class and the college. As head cheer- leader, he successfully directed the rallies and other manifesta- tions of college spirit during the football season. As president of the class, his cooperation with classmates and faculty caused social, academic, and governmental affairs to function smoothly. In this connection, his cooperation with the Sub Turri was invalu- able. Four years of debating and Sodality work have not pre- vented Bill from mastering his major subject. Economics. lii ' Y ARTHUR R. JOYCE, A.B. 275 Faneuil Street, Brighton, Mass. Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Yacht Club 2, 3, 4. The third member of the triumvirate of Thornton, Kean and Joyce, Bud is another of the Brighton contingent that has kept the town at the foot of Lake St. in the HmeHght here at Boston Col- lege. Ever since his freshman days, he has been one of our best boosters, and no social function has been complete without his presence. Although there has been no opportunity for him to dis- play his prowess as a bridge player since bridge became un- popular on the premises, he still maintains his mastery over the cards by weekly competition in a foursome that rivals the Cul- bertsons and Jacobys. Second only to his liking for Economics, is his keen appetite for homemade chocolate cake, although he won ' t admit it. lAMES M. KEAN, A.B. (HONORS) 32 Gardena Street, Brighton, Mass. Class Council 1; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Cross and Crown 4; Glee Club 1, 2; Latin Academy 1; Heights 1, 2, 3, 4; Sports Editor 3, 4; Baseball 1. When we think of Jim, we think of sports writing. Even in his high school days at Boston Latin, he served as Sports Editor of the school magazine. At Boston College, he has the unique honor of being the first editor of any department of the Heights to be ap- pointed for two years; Jim was Sports Editor during his third and fourth years. In fact, Jim ' s brother served as Sports Editor in 1935. Quite fittingly, Jim majored in English and he is a fine student in the Honors Course. Naturally, he follows all sports and is a mem- ber of the National Intercollegiate Sports Writers ' Association. His hobby is journalism, and we will not be surprised to see many a by-line of his in the near future. ROLAND G. KEARNS, A.B. 19 Emery Street, Brookville, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Philosophy Academy 3, 4; French Acad- emy 1,2; Latin Academy 1, 2. From the hamlet of Brookville comes Roland Kearns, a popular senior and an active class member. He attended Sumner High School in Holbrook where he was an honor student and presi- dent of his class. He selected history as his special field of con- centration and has been a keen student of that subject. Roland is a close follower of sports, especially baseball and football and is a talented performer in both. As to his future plans, he intends to enter the teaching profession. Membership in the Cross and Crown testifies to his activity in school affairs. He was a member of the French and Latin Academies and in his third year joined the Philosophy Academy. Roland ' s general ability will be a valuable asset to him in later life. HENRY P. KEENAN, A.B. 331 Saratoga Street, East Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Law and Government Acad- emy 3, 4; Von Pastor History Academy 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2; Tennis 4. Effort is a potent factor in every act or accomplishment. This quaUty added to natural ability, has been the keynote of Henry ' s success as a student and friend here at the college. At all times, Henry presents a quiet and easy demeanor to the world. An ardent student, he has devoted his principal energies to the field of history, and has supplemented class work by faithful mem- bership in the Von Pastor History Academy. Participation in tennis and swimming, as well as activities in the Sodality, have occupied a good deal of Henry ' s spare time, but yachting usually gets the first call when relaxation is in order. We hope that Henry ' s conscientious study will result in the success which hard work always deserves. JOHN M. KELLEHER, A.B. 189 Dover Street, Brockton, Mass. Dramatic Society 2; Track 1: French Acad- emy 1, 2; Sociology Academy 4; Writer ' s Club 1: Boxing 1, 2, 3. Perhaps one of the best promoters to come to the Heights for some time, Kell is a resident of the famous Shoe City which has produced such other Boston College celebrities as Lou Mont- gomery and Don Mulcahy. A sodalist of four years standing, Kell has also been a member of such organizations as the Dra- matic Society and the Greek and French Academies. Kell is one fellow who can accomplish an end with a minimum of effort, and though he says he is not very studious, he manages to do cred- itable scholastic work. John ' s major is Sociology, and he belongs to the Sociology Academy. Kell does his part in spreading the name of B. C. by writing a news and sports column about Boston College for the Brockton newspapers. WILLIAM C. KELLY, A.B. 740 Saratoga Street, East Boston, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sub Turri 4; Fulton 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4. Bill possesses the qualities of a representative graduate. Always an ardent student and a persevering performer, he has estab- lished himself as a worthy member of this class. His extra-curri- cular activities in debating, economics, sodality and the Sub Turri, as well as his general interest in all collegiate functions have added to his scholastic record to earn for him membership in the Cross and Crown. Attendance at social functions and good taste for fashionable clothes designate him as a Beau Brummell. A ready smile and a friendly personality introduce Bill as one who is eager to work industriously, and is able to achieve results. In the future, insurance, advertising, and espe- cially sales promotion, will offer wide opportunities to his con- stant ambition. WILLIAM J. KELLY, A.B. 73 Woodland Avenue, Brockton, Mass. Sodality 3; Law and Government Acad- emy 3, 4; Heights 4; Spanish Academy 1, 2, 3; Latin Academy 1, 2; Track 1. Brockton has always been noted for its shoes and its excep- tional athletes. When Bill came to Boston College, the shoe City- gained further fame as the home of all-around good fellows. One of the widely popular students in the class, Kel has used his versatile talents in a successful effort to make his class the best ever on the Heights. Majoring in Government, he plans to enter the Consular Service and has set himself well on the way by diplomatically controlling the affairs of Brockton in the lunch room, while at the same time offering vocational guidance to Leo Carty and Jimmy Loughlin, the soda fountain connoisseurs. He prefers the slogan Buy it in Brockton to all other sales talks, as we have found out. EDWARD F. KENNEDY, A.B. 13 Grant Street, Natick, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4. From the bucolic serenity of the town of Natick comes Ed, who for four years commuted all the way from this distant town. This travelling hindered active participation in extra-curricular activ- ities, although in any game of football or baseball which was played during school hours one could be sure to find Ed in the midst of things. He displayed at all times an ever loyal support of the athletic teams in every kind of a contest. This same zeal was seen in the classroom, where he diligently applied it to ac- counting and economics. He considers these subjects valuable assets in the business world where we as well as he hope he will carve a successful niche for himself. EDMUND I. KENNY, A.B. (HONORS) 61 Hathorne Street, Salem, Mass. Sodality 1. 2, 3, 4; Prefect 4; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, 4; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4, Knight Commander; Heights 1, 2, 3, 4; Economics Academy 2, 3. 4; Greek Academy 1, 2; Class Council 4. The true quality of Ed ' s varied activity at B. C. is indicated by the fact that he was elected Knight Commander of the Cross and Crown, and Prefect of the Senior-Junior Sodality. Besides this, Ed has had time to become an expert swimmer, and even serves as assistant sports Editor on the Heights. He has been a debater for the Marquette and Fulton, a lecturer for the Sodality, and a member of the Inter-Racial Justice Conference. How Ed does all this work, and still finds time for sleep and study is a mystery to his friends. Still, he shows a fine record of scholarship in Economics and his other courses. Ed is the type of gentle- man Boston College can well afford to be proud of now, and in the future. ALBERT I. KEOUGH, B.S. (HISTORY) 33 Union Avenue, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 3; Glee Club 3; Philosophy Acad- emy 3; French Academy 1; Track 2; Football 3. This diminutive bundle of energy hails from the neighborhood of Jamaica Pond. Despite his size, Albie starred in football, base- ball, and track at Jamaica Plain High, and became captain of football and track. He has continued his athletic activity at the Heights, and supplements it with a lively interest in social af- fairs, as well as scholastic work. Al has also given some of his time to the Sodality and the Glee Club. He manages to keep all these activities in proper balance so that the whole man bene- fits. Long afternoons of football do not leave one in the mood for studious effort, but Al pursued successfully the course leading to a B. S. degree in History. JOSEPH L. KEOUGH, A.B. 132 George Street, Medford, Mass. Sodality 1, 4; Writer ' s Club 4; Football 1, 2. Joe came to Boston College directly from Medford High, where he was outstanding in the classroom and on the football field. He followed his two brothers to the Heights, and like them com- peted in football for two years. In the junior year, Joe decided to forsake this favorite sport of his for more serious concentration on his academic work. He is greatly interested in writing, and has majored in English to develop his own ability along this line, and to gain a knowledge of the famous literary works of the past. Joe ' s ultimate ambition is to make a name for himself in the field of journalism. We trust that Joe ' s natural ability, and willingness to work will insure the realization of this laudable ambition. LAWRENCE F. KICKHAM, B.S. (EDUCATION) 657 Chestnut HiJl Avenue, Brookline, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2, 3; French Academy 1; Cross and Crown 4. The calm, self-composed exterior of this tall, dark gentleman makes it almost impossible to fathom what is going on inside him. When he attempts to manifest worldly-wise cynicism, it is dif- ficult to determine whether he is serious or not. The satirical strain in him is restrained often by his respect for other peoples ' feelings. Lest the foregoing words give you the wrong impres- sion of Larry, he is at heart an optimistic and likeable fellow, as his good friend Frank Lally can tell you. Majoring in Education, Larry still maintains a deep interest in cultural activities, and has been a four-year member of the Glee Club and the sodality. He is particularly faithful, incidentally, as an aide to the blind stu- dents at Perkins Institute. li: ' y wf LOUIS J. KIDHARDT, B.S. (EDUCATION) 21 Cottage Street, Claremont, N. H. Sodality 2, 3; Track 1, 2, 3; Football 1, 2, 3, 4. Lou hails from that incubator of great football players, Clare- mont, N. H. There he attended Stevens High School, and was twice named on the All-State football team. Coming to Boston College, he played well in his freshman year. During his sopho- more and junior years he really came into his own under the Dobie system, and became one of the most consistent players on the first team. He was just rounding into top form in his senior year, when an injury in the Auburn game laid him low for the rest of the season. By his hard work and modest bearing, Lou has become a very popular figure on the campus. Lou takes part in all sports, but also finds time to do a great deal of read- ing, especially on the subject of education. WILLIAM G. KINIRY, Jr., A.B, 193 Summer Street, Somerville, Mass. Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Class Council 2; Orchestra 3; Heights 4; Yacht Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Bill comes from Somerville, where he attended Somerville High School. Before entering college, he took a prep course at Boston College High. In college, Bill was one of the mainstays of the band, being a member for four years. His favorite sport is yachting, and he was secretary of the Yacht Club. Bill ' s greatest thrill is participating in intercollegiate yachting races on the Charles River. He has done a lot to promote yachting at Boston College and deserves much credit. Don ' t be misled by his modest exterior. To meet him once is to understand why he is such a good fellow and so well liked by his classmates. •p JOHN H. KINNIER, B.S. (PHYSICS) 94 Lake Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Radio Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Chemist ' s Club 1, 2; Physics Seminar 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4. Since the day John first came to the Heights, his life has been one continuous round of earnest activity. John ' s first two years were spent for the most part in the Chemistry Labs, but he soon forsook the upper floors for new haunts in the clean fresh air of the Physics Department. Here he distinguished himself as a splendid student in class, and a keen observer in the weekly Physics Seminar. The activity with which most of the boys asso- ciate John is the Radio Club. Since his freshman days, he has had an ear cocked for the dots and dashes which fly into our Tower from near and far. During his junior and senior years, he has been President and obliging host of the club. WALTER J. KUPRIS, A.B. 42 Vineland Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 2; Philosophy Academy 1; Radio Club 1; Rifle 1; Fencing 1, 2. A rabid photography and radio fan, Walter, another of Boston College ' s Brighton contingent, always found sufficient time for study to make himself one of the college ' s better students as well as one of the most interesting and best liked men in the senior class. Walter loved to dabble in all forms of amateur photog- raphy, while his other interest, radio, found fulfillment in his membership in the college ' s Radio Club. His other activities in- cluded the Philosophy Academy and the Sodality. He always found time to mingle with his choice companions in the usual rotunda meeting place, and was a constant and faithful atten- dant at all the college athletic contests. Walter majored in ac- counting and economics while at Boston College, and plans to enter a field related to these subjects upon graduation. FRANCIS J. LALLY, A.B., (HONORS) 34 Claremont Terrace, Swampscott, Mass. Sodality 1. 2, 3, 4; Writer ' s Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 3; Stylus 4; Cross and Crown 4. Frank seems to have that intangible and irrepressible something which people, for want of a better word, call charm. Besides that, he has just about the subtlest sense of humor imaginable. But Frank is no brittlewit, his tongue is no knife, in fact he couldn ' t say an intentionally unkind thing about anyone. Indeed, his chief fault is that he refuses to give proper respect to his own capabilities and possibilities. Yet, he has that delightful ability to say with absolute sincerity the most complimentary things about other people. Frank is majoring in English literature, and though he won ' t admit it, his prose style is fresh and vigorous, and his poetry above average. It seems quite possible that he may become a success, in spite of himself. WILLIAM I. LARKIN, A.B. (HONORS) 92 Day Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Marquette 1, 2; So- dality 3, 4; Fulton 3, 4; Economics Acad- emy 4; Greek Academy 1. Bill came to B. C. from Latin School and has evidenced outstand- ing scholastic ability throughout his whole four years at the Heights. A consistent member of the Dean ' s List, Bill has also de- voted time to extra-curricular activities such as debating. So- dality and the Economics Academy. As a result, membership in the Cross and Crown was for him a foregone conclusion. Golf and tennis are Bill ' s favorite sports, but the others are by no means neglected. Bill majored in English, but is an enthusiastic exponent of Irish culture. He combines with Pat Molloy and Jerry Sullivan to prove to you that the Irish were the creators and preservers of the Christian civilization of Europe. Bill finds plenty of opportunities to defend this thesis in verbal combat. JOHN L. LAVERTY, Jr., B.S. (PHYSICS) 14 Amer Street, Somerville, Mass. Vice-Pres. A. A. 4; Sodality 2, 3, 4; Heights 2, 3. 4; German Academy 2; Physics Sem- inar 3, 4; Ass ' t Manager, Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4; Ass ' t Manager, Football 3; Ass ' t Manager, Baseball 1, 2, 3. John has been a godsend to the A. A. ever since the first day he arrived on the campus. Football, baseball, hockey, and even the boxing team have been aided no end by the tasks performed by this energetic worker. An appreciative student body elected John vice-president of the A. A.; a grateful hockey squad se- lected him as their manager. John is a bit on the quiet side, like all really hard workers. Regardless of the strenuous laboratory work, John has contributed more than his due to the athletic teams of the college. Photography is John ' s hobby, but his first and foremost interest is Physics, and his talks in the Physics Seminars gave evidence of mastery of the subject. WILLIAM J. LAVERTY, B.S. (PHYSICS) 31 Bourneside Street, Dorchester, Mass. Hockey 1; Baseball 1: Mgr, Football 1, 2, 3; Physics Seminar 3, 4: Dramatic So- ciety 1, 2, 3; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy 1. Bill comes from Dorchester, and like many other Dorchesterites, he has played a large part in the Heights extra-curricular activ- ities. But he can be distinguished from all of them by the fact that he majored in Physics, one of our hardest courses. Bill ' s Seminar work showed that he might easily be successful in teaching, and we will all admit that his manipulation of the ap- plause meter under the Towers indicated research ability. In addition. Bill wears his clothes in the latest Esquire fashion. Some of us would like to borrow one of those covert cloth topcoats, or smooth looking Stetsons for a few dates, provided we all attained the same success; or possibly it was the sudden improvement in Bill ' s already flashing smile that brought such charming results. FREDERICK J. LEAHY, B.S. (HISTORY) 67 Gov. Winthrop Road, Somerville, Mass. Gold Key 3; Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3, 4. Fred came to Boston College from Boston English High School, and will be remembered as the lad who wore the blue satin pants on his high school football team. Here at the Heights he changed his field of sports to track and baseball. Fred was a member in good standing of Jack Ryder ' s track sguad for four years, and also played four years of varsity baseball. He was preceded at Boston College by a cousin, Arthur L. McManus, who will be remembered as a football star and subseguent coach at B. C. High. As a major, Fred chose History, and is as yet undecided about the future, but hopes that he will in some way be connected with sports, a future which he considers the most congenial to his talents. JOHN F. LEARY, A.B. 37 Emerson Road, Winthrop, Mass. Sodality 2; Law and Government Acad- emy 2; Heights 2; Sub Turri 4; Junior Pic 3; Baseball 3, 4. Someone once advised man to lead a full life. John Leary has followed this counsel. At B. C. High in 1936, Jack was chosen on the All-Boston baseball team, and during his four years at the Heights he has been artist for the Junior Pic, Sub Turri, and the A. A. football program; has maintained an enviable reputation as a scholar; toiled as the leading left-handed pitcher on Freddie Maguire ' s baseball club the past two seasons; and, in addition to all these activities, coached athletics at Walnut Park Country Day School. He is gifted with an amazing ability to reproduce facial expressions, and his work has aroused favorable com- ment from editors of Boston papers. John intends to follow this line of endeavor and should find the same success as rewarded his efforts here at school. : CHARLES H. LEONARD, A.B. 307 Lamartine Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2. Somber, serious Charlie has been an asset to the Enghsh depart- ment of the College for these past years, since English is his elected major. Graduating from Jamaica Plain High where he was a member of the Senior Council, he made an inconspicuous but important entrance here in the fall of ' 36. Never one to ex- press himself vocally, Charlie ' s election of English aimed to fa- cilitate his work with the pen, and broaden his personality. He likes the lonely sport of fishing, particularly the fresh water va- riety. He also likes to watch the not so lonely sports of football and hockey, as well as baseball. Employed as the charge d ' af- faires in a downtown bus terminal, Charlie is given much op- portunity to wax both poetic and philosophic about the passing throng. IRVING LITANT, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 16 School Street, Dorchester, Mass. Band 4: Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Crystal 3, 4, Business Editor 4; German Academy 1, 2; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Rifle Club 1, 2. Coming from English High School, Irving has distinguished him- self by letting his talent run rampant at the Heights. He was a member of the Boston College Orchestra for four years and a member of the band for one. His drawings, especially that of the seal of the Chemist ' s Club, have been acclaimed by all. Nor do his talents stop here for besides being business editor of the Crystal, he is also a contributor whose articles are eagerly looked forward to by the readers of that learned publication. Even with such an active program, Irving finds time to indulge in his hobbies, namely, music and bio-chemistry, as well as to take in a game of baseball or football. A charming, energetic and sincere fellow, we all wish him luck. l:: ' tf LEO E. LOGUE, B.S, (EDUCATION) 15 West Street, Maiden, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4. Some one once said that good things come in small packages, and that statement certainly applies to Leo Logue. Hailing from nearby Maiden, the incubator of late Boston College athletic heroes, Leo has done more than his share to keep that city in the limelight in the world of sports. An all-round athlete, Leo con- centrated on football here at the Heights, and played a promi- nent part in the success of the Eagle elevens for the past four years, by holding down a pivot position. What he lacked in size, he made up in spirit. He is also an accomplished dancer, and one of the class philosophers. Majoring in Education, he plans to become a teacher-coach, thus fulfilling a life ambition. RICHARD M. LOMBARD, A.B. 112 Thurston Street, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Orchestra 4; Band 4; Rifle 1; Von Pastor Academy 3. Dick, a native of Somerville, came to the Heights from Boston College High. He dropped out of college after completing his Junior year in order to accept a business position, but came back this year, to obtain his A. B. degree and we of ' 40 are more than glad to have him as one of our class-mates. He has been a member of the college band and orchestra during his senior year at B. C, and he also found the time to belong to the Rifle Squad in his Freshman year. Dick tells us that he would like to teach Latin in public schools after graduating, and his major in Education would certainly aid him in serving in such a position. DAVID J. LUCEY, B.S. (EDUCATION) Dover, New Hampshire Class Council 1; Sodality 1, 2. 3, 4; Mar- quette 2; Philosophy Academy 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; Sub Tuiri 4; Chairman of Commencement Week. Dave was a four year letter-man in football at Dover High School, and here at Boston College was one of our most de- pendable quarter-backs for another four years. This gives ample testimony of Dave ' s athletic ability. What is not so well-known is that Dave is also a fine student, and the possessor of consider- able executive ability. At the same time that he knocks down high marks in Psychology, Dave finds time to maintain his in- terest in the Sodality and the Philosophy Academy. True to the axiom that a busy man can always find time for another job, Dave took upon himself the duties of Assistant Manager of the Sub Turri, and was largely instrumental in insuring the financial success of the year book. THOMAS F. LYDON, A.B. 29 Justin Road, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Philosophy Academy 3; So- ciology Academy A; Baseball 1. Tom is a quiet, athletic young man who came to us from Saint Columbkille ' s High in Brighton. Selecting Sociology as his major, he has become keenly interested in this subject and he intends to enter the School of Social Work. As a further aid to his work, Tom has joined the Sociology Academy. A gifted ball player, he has spent the past three summers playing in the twilight league. Among his other interests philosophy rates a high place and he finds great enjoyment in discussing the finer points of that sub- ject as a member of the Philosophy Academy. Reserved and mild of manner, Tom is one of those whose character is slowly but surely appreciated by an ever-widening circle of friends. jii-; ! JOSEPH H. LYNCH, A.B. (HONORS) 6 Denton Place, Roslindale, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Heights 3, 4; Greek Academy 1; Sodality 3, 4: French Acad- emy 1, 2, President 3. 4. J. Harry Lynch has beUed his name in his four years at B. C, and has lived, eaten, and breathed French. Joining the French Acad- emy in ' 36, he became president in ' 38, and as president has been responsible for innumerable French banquets and dances. The Philomatheia Chalet is his stamping ground and more than one classmate has found that an intriguingly enjoyable evening may be spent there. J. Harry became one of the Heightsman in ' 38, probably to see that his beloved French Academy got its de- served break in print. Yet, with all his work for the French Academy and the Heights, Harry has maintained a magna cum laude average for four years. He hopes to continue studying French till he too is before a class. JOHN M. LYONS, A.B. 78 Chestnut Street, Everett, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4. During the four years in which we have known Murry here at the Heights, we have never known him to worry or be gloomy. His cheery disposition has often brightened what would other- wise have been a dreary hour. If someday John packs his bags and leaves, don ' t be at all surprised, for he will simply be grati- fying his longing to travel. Majoring in Economics, John is in- tensely interested in the economic and geographic features of South America, where he hopes someday to earn his living. A product of B. C. High, John has prospered under the tutelage of the Jesuits, and is sure to put his training to good use in the fu- ture, whether he remains in this country, or seeks his fortune elsewhere. EUGENE V. McAULIFFE, Jr., A.B. (HONORS) 282 South Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3; Marquette 1, 2; German Academy 1, 2, 3, 4, Pres. 1. Like his inseparable friend, John Mulhgan, Mac graduated from Boston Latin School, and came to Boston College to special- ize in the study of German. He has been able to fathom the in- tricacies of Dr. Boulanger ' s examinations for the last three years, and is well on his way to a mastery of German literature and language. The fact that Gene works after school hours, has necessarily curtailed his participation in college activities. Yet he has managed to be present at meetings of the German Aca- demy for four years, and to give some attention to debating and the Sodality meetings. He also served on the Freshman Prom Committee and the Junior Communion Breakfast Committee. The quality of his classroom work brought his name to the Dean ' s List for four years. CHARLES w. McCarthy, b.s. (history) 123 Faneuil Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Gold Key 3; Dramatic So- ciety 1; Vice-Pres. of Class 2, 3; Class Council 4; Track 1; Golf 1, 2, 3, 4; Foot- ball 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1. An athlete and a gentleman is Charlie McCarthy. He proved his athletic ability more than once as a back on the Class of 1940 freshman team, in the same capacity for two varsity seasons under Gil Dobie and finally wound up his career in the Cotton Bowl game as a mainstay of Frank Leahy ' s first Boston College eleven. As a gentleman he served the class capably as its vice- president for two terms and ever won the respect and admira- tion of his constituents by his conduct in the affairs of the class. Charlie will probably go on into educational and athletic fields of endeavor, possibly as a teacher coach, but wherever he goes, he will certainly be seen in company with his inseparable pal and gridiron team mate, Tom Powers. JOHN J. McCarthy, a.b. 53 North Pleasant Street, Taunton, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Philosophy Academy 3; Ricci Math Academy 2, John comes from the thriving city of Taunton where he attended Monsignor Coyle High School. While there, he captained the football team and was graduated cum laude. At the Heights he specialized in Mathematics which he hopes to teach after gradu- ation. John was a member of the Ricci Mathematics Academy and the Philosophy Academy. He still retains his interest in foot- ball, though from a spectator ' s viewpoint, and is also a lover of baseball. While his particular proficiency is in Mathematics, John has also earned a fine scholastic record in all branches of study. Such is the story of the hard-working gentleman whom we expect to find instructing pupils in the art of manipulating figures in the near future. JOHN T. McCarthy, jr., a.b. 33 Ackers Avenue, Brookline, Mass. Sodality 1,2,3,4; Heights 1; French Acad- emy 1; Gold Key 3; Economics Academy 3; Glee Club 4. In looking over Jack ' s various qualities, one might hit upon sin- cerity as his most outstanding characteristic. This, coupled with simplicity of manner, has won for him the friendship of many fellow seniors. No task, no matter how trivial it might appear to be, fails to gain his utmost attention and energy; no person, no matter what his faults, fails to find a champion in him. His chief outside interest is golf. A few years ago he gained quite a repu- tation as an amateur golfer, and showed to advantage in various state tournaments. Jack ' s major is Economics, and his immediate destination is the business world. If he faces the problems of life with the courage and determination which he has displayed in the past, his future success is assured. JOSEPH A. McCarthy, a.b. G5 Park Avenue, South Weymouth, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Joe is our quiet, studious representative from South Weymouth. He prepared for college at Boston College High, and upon com- ing to the Heights, he selected Business for his field of concentra- tion. Throughout the full four years, Joe was a faithful member of the Sodality. Joe ' s retiring manner has not prevented him from cultivating many friendships among his fellow seniors. He is a keen enthusiast when sports are concerned, and with equal facility discusses and plays baseball, football, and basketball. One of Joe ' s distressing problems is to avoid being confused with that man of the same name who graduated from B. C. last year. Joe has not yet made a definite decision as to his future but we wish him success in whatever field he chooses. JOSEPH F. McCarthy, b.s. (chemistry) 35 Presentation Road, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Heights 3; Ricci Math. Acad- emy 2; Chemist ' s Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Track 3; Tennis 1, 4; Alpha Gamma Society 3, 4. Joe is truly a scientist, for during his thesis work he discovered and prepared a new compound, which is a remarkable feat. His activities have not been confined to that of the labs, since he is very active in extra-curricular activities. He was one of the founders and a charter member of the exclusive Chemistry so- ciety. Alpha Gamma. His interest in sports turned to the tennis team of which he was an active member for two seasons, and to the track team. Joe is a well rounded man scholastically, for coupled with his scientific work, is his interest in debating and writing. With such a brilliant record he is bound to go far in his major field of activity. DANIEL L. McCUE, Jr., A.B. (HONORS) 22 Warner Street, Somerville, Mass. Class Council 1, 2; Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Vice-Prefect 2; Sec ' y 4; Dramatic Society 1; Glee Club 2, 3; Or- chestra 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; French Academy 2; Band 1, 2, 3, 4. It is difficult to know where to begin in writing about Danny. He has been intensely active at the college for four years, especially in Sodality affairs. At St. Clement ' s High, Dan was outstanding in debating and in music, and was perennial president of his class. Diminutive and soft-spoken, Dan is quietly aggressive in all he does. This trait characterizes his favorite activity of spread- ing the doctrines of Catholic Action, as well as his interest in electricity and photography. Dan is also famed for his chairman- ship of the Ethics quizzes. As a sideline to all these activities Dan takes the Creative Writing Course in English. At B. C. he has played varied instruments both in the band and in the orchestra, and has even organized his own orchestra, which traveled to Bermuda in 1938. JOHN I. McCUE, A.B. 32 Gay Street, Quincy, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; La ' w and Government Acad- emy 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; French Academy 1. Here we present a gentleman who prepared for college at Quincy High School. During his last two years at the Heights, John was a member of the Sodality, Law and Government, and Economics Academies, and was also a member of the French Academy in his Freshman year. Among John ' s favorite interests are football and hockey and he is a spectator at all Boston Col- lege games in these sports. He has majored in Accounting, and intends to make this field his life ' s work, as he aspires to be a Certified Public Accountant. John is a quiet, studious, and de- pendable, young man, and seems to possess the ideal temper- ament for one planning to enter the accounting profession. i- ' i ' ARTHUR H. McDEVITT, A.B. (HONORS) 164 Centre Street, Dorchester, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3, 4; Dra- matic Society 3, 4; German Academy 1.2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; A.A. Rep. 1 Though small in stature. Art has accomplished enough to make any six-footer proud. He is one of the best students in the difficult Pre-Med course as well as a four-year member of the Dean ' s List. Art is also gifted with histrionic ability, which first became evi- dent when he gave a masterful rendition of the role of William Tell ' s son in the German Play in 1938. Talent scouts for the Dra- matic Society were lurking in the audience, and as a result he also appeared in dramatic productions of that society in his last two years. But Art ' s first love is the medical profession, and he expresses himself as follows about prospects in that field, I hope all the fellows won ' t be too healthy. After all, we saw-bones have to live, even though they might die. JOSEPH E. McDonald, a.b. 36 Hall Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Greek Academy 1,2; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. A quiet sort of chap, but one who was well known to his class- mates for his dry wit and ready laugh, Joe is a talented mu- sician who divided many nights between the books and his set of saxophones. He came to Boston College from B. C. High and majored in English. Having an outstanding command of English it would not be surprising if Joe took up writing as a profession. In his Sophomore year he was an active member of the Greek Academy and has devoted his Thursday mornings for the last four years to the Sodality. A loyal rooter at the college sporting events, Joe has not missed a football game in his college ca- reer. Joe will be a success, if he takes care not to play his saxo- phone when the neighbors are asleep. p! ' ROBERT H. McGEE, A.B. 18 Summer Avenue, Everett, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy 3, 4; Yacht Club 3, 4. After graduating from Everett High, Bob spent a year at B. C. High before he came to Boston College. Bob has majored in so- ciology, and his ability and interest in the study of society brought him to every social function in the College. In fact, his interest in sociology an d his popularity with fellow students was recognized by the fact that he was made the vice-president of the Sociology Academy. Bob ' s good nature, and happy faculty of wandering around spreading happiness are his dominant characteristics. If Bob ' s sincere efforts in school are any indica- tion of his future work, we are sure that he will be assured of success in his every endeavor. WILLIAM P. McGLONE, B.S. (HISTORY) 64 Curve Street, Wellesley, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Von Pastor History Academy 1, 2; Social Science Seminar 2; French Academy 1, 2; Sociology Academy 4. A graduate of Wellesley High, where he took an active part in the sports of basketball and track, Bill has made a fine scholastic record for himself in his years at Boston College. His name has appeared on the Dean ' s list every year of his college career and this is certainly something of which to be proud. This scholar has also been active in the work of several of the Academies of the school and has been a member of the Boston College Glee Club for four years. Bill has majored in the field of History and has displayed his great interest in the subject by his work in the Von Pastor History Academy. A well liked individual, he has spent his time at Boston College to good advantage. ROBERT E. McGOVERN, A.B, 16 Chestnut Hill Avenue, Brighton, Mass. Baseball 1, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; Sociology Academy 4; So- dality 1, 2, 3, 4. Although Bob is a good student and an outstanding athlete, his retiring nature has caused him to minimize the worth of his own achievements in the classroom and on the diamond. But his record speaks for itself. For four years, his conscientious applica- tion in studies has placed him high in the scholastic standing of his class. His conscientiousness was evident also on the ball field. Eager to learn, Bob developed here at the college into one of the more dependable hurlers on Coach Fred McGuire ' s staff. Espe- cially during his Junior and Senior years was his fast ball the deciding factor in many B. C. victories. Used more often in relief roles. Bob saved many a faltering teammate from defeat by step- ping into the breach to quell the enemy uprising. CORNELIUS D. McGRATH, A.B. 22 Columbia Street, Brookline, Mass. Class Council 1; Gold Key 3, 4, Pres. 3; Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3; Baseball 3, 4. Coming to the Heights from Boston Latin, wh ere he starred in football, baseball and hockey, tall, good-looking Connie con- fined his sporting activities to fireballing them in for the base- ball nine. Starting slowly in his sophomore year, he reached his peak of effectiveness in his last year, when, with Fred Leahy, he formed the nucleus of the pitching department. Not content with participating in things merely athletic, Connie also had his hand in other affairs about the campus. As president of the Gold Key and Chairman of the Sophomore Prom, he dominated Soph and Junior activities. A social lion of prominence, he lent his pres- ence to many of the dansants and proms, both at Boston College and at surrounding universities. _!l pB CHARLES A. McISAAC, A.B. GO Ainsworth Street, Roslindale, Mass. Class Council 1; Latin Academy 1; Ger- man Academy 2, 3, 4; Fencing 1, 2. Charlie is a genial fellow with a ready smile who always has a bit of humor to lighten the occasion. Coming to Boston College from Latin School, he took an immediate interest in German in his freshman and sophomore years, and has since majored in this subject. Tall and lithe of stature, Charlie made a perfect prospect for the fencing team, which he joined and became one of the most efficient fencers in the Class of ' 40. He has a secret ambition to write, and from the bits of composition which he has turned into the Stylus and Heights, it seems that his ambition will be realized, should he follow this inclination. He is an ardent follower of Boston College athletic events, and also a very pro- ficient tennis player. JOSEPH W. McKENNEY, A.B, 206 Mount Auburn Street, Watertown, Mass. Heights 1, 2, 3, 4, News Editor 3; Sub Turri 4; Editor of Junior Pic 3; La ' w and Govern- ment Academy 4. In the past, the name of McKenney has been famous on the Heights in the athletic and entertainment world. Now, new lustre has been added to the name in the field of journalism by the talent of our own Joe McKenney. With the experience gained at B.C. High as editor of the Democratic Liberator, Joe soon be- came a valuable member of the Heights staff here at B.C. He held the position of News Editor in Junior, and was elected as Editor-in-Chief of the paper for 1940, but relinquished that posi- tion because of the pressure of his duties as student correspon- dent for the Boston Post. Joe also headed the Junior Pic staff, and is an Associate Editor of the Sub Turri. Joe ' s ambition, as you may have guessed, is to enter the field of journalism. JOHN F. McLaughlin, b.s, (physics) 125 School Street, Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Heights 2, 3, 4; Ricci Mathematics Academy 2, 3; Physics Sem- inar 1, 2, 3, 4; Hockey 1. John is a representative of Roxbury and a graduate of Roxbury Memorial High. Physics is his major, and after graduation he intends to enter M.I.T. to secure a B.S. in Mechanical Engineer- ing. Of a scientific turn, John counts as his hobbies such subjects as drawing, engineering, and mathematics. Among sports he lists such varied choices as sailing, hunting, golf, and football. This ambitious young man has already taken one summer course at M.I.T. and hopes to repeat the practice this summer. John was a member of the Ricci Mathematics Academy and the Physics Seminar, as well as the Heights and Sodality. With such a record and such a keen enthusiasm for his chosen field, we cannot but feel that he is ideally suited for success in this line of endeavor. JOHN L. McLaughlin, a.b. 88 Bartlett Street, Charlestown, Mass. Sodality 2, 3; Heights 1; Sociology Acad- emy 4; German Academy 1, 2. John came to the Heights by way of Boston College High School. At college, he decided to specialize in sociology, and was af- filiated with the Sociology Academy during his senior year. He was also a sodalist and a staff-member of the Heights. John is an expert in the art of swimming, and this is naturally his favorite sport. A likeable disposition has made him a special favorite with his fellow-seniors, but John retains his modest and pleasant manner despite such popularity. We are not sure what his fu- ture career will be, but this resolute gentleman has a knack of doing well whatever he undertakes, so we can rest assured that John will distinguish himself and his Alma Mater. Iffiijjj HENRY J. McMAHON, A.B. 8 Prospect Hill Avenue, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Fulton 3, 4: Marquette 1, 2; Sub Turri 4; Alpha Sigma Nu 4. Quiet-spoken Henry is one of the outstanding students of the Class of ' 40. Graduated from Somerville High School, where he won the Knights of Columbus oratorical prize, he has continued to excel in speaking at the college in the Marquette and Fulton debating societies. His scholastic achievements have warranted membership for him in the Cross and Crown Society and in Al- pha Sigma Nu, the national fraternity, of whose B. C. chapter Henry was elected president for 1940. Still, he finds time to follow his favorite sports, football and baseball, and served as man- aging editor of the Sub Turri during the senior year. Henry is majoring in history and may enter the teaching profession, where his self-composure and keen intellect will be valuable assets. JAMES F. McNAMARA, B.S. (EDUCATION) 85 Ravine Street, West Medford, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2, 3; Rifle Team 3; Von Pastor History Academy 1, 2. Jim is a vigorous lad who came to the Heights from Medford High and Maiden Catholic, and made himself popular with his classmates by his humorous personality and careless abandon. Jim was preceded at Boston College by an uncle, James E. Dunn who graduated in 1904. Since his Sophomore year he has been a member of the Marine Reserves and as a result of his training took a deep interest in the rifle team at Boston College. A mem- ber of the French Academy for three years, and of the Von Pas- tor History Academy, he made himself conspicuous by his pro- found interest in these organizations. Jim is a real enthusiast regarding skiing and riding, and has a hobby of training horses and dogs. JAMES R. McNICHOLAS, A.B. 14 Prescott Street, Watertown, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 4; Writer ' s Club 3; Heights 2, 3; German Academy 1, 2; Junior Pic 3; Sub Turri 4. Few are as well-informed on the sports world as is this popular senior from Watertown. At Boston College High, he was for two years sports editor of the school magazine. In his senior year at Boston College, he has been a member of the sports editorial staff of the Sub Turri. Among the sports in which he takes part are baseball, golf, football, and bowling. A further proof of his writing ability is seen in his work on the Heights and the Junior Pic. An unusual but interesting hobby of his is collecting school banners. He will probably concentrate on some phase of English for his life ' s work, and his natural talent combined with his will- ing spirit of co-operation should carry him far. JOSEPH w. Mcpherson, jr., a.b. 221 Linewood Avenue, Newtonville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 2; Economics Academy 3; German Academy 1, 2. After graduating from the James Street institution, Joe moved out to the Heights to further pursue his studies, especially the classics, in which he received a second prize award in prep school. During his stay under the Towers, he has continued to obtain good marks in the classics. Among the clubs of which he was a member, were the Economics Academy and the German Academy. His quiet, good natured manner, and his warm, ready smile have made many friends for him. A fine scholar in Eco- nomics, in which he has majored, Joe has decided that he would like to follow this line of work for a life ' s career, and so is plan- ning to take graduate work in this field. lll ' Wf THOMAS F. McSHARRY, A.B. 35 Academy Street, South Braintree, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Fulton 3; Marquette 2; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Economics Academy 4; Boxing 2, 3. Tom prepared for B. C. at Braintree High and B. C. High, where he took one year of post-graduate study. His absorbing interest in pohtical and current affairs was shown by the opinions he expressed, especially in Father Low ' s class discussion periods. On the athletic side, Tom did a lot of boxing for the college team, and evidently with considerable skill, for he shows no marks of his fistic encounters. Tom, however, does not neglect the other sports, and rifle-shooting, especially, is a favorite of his, and has been ever since his high-school days. Tom is majoring in gov- ernment, and this, coupled with his interest in foreign affairs, should insure a successful future in some kind of governmental work. WALTER A. MacDONOUGH, A.B. 2 Glines Avenue, Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 1, 2, 3, 4: Class Council 1; Writer ' s Club 3, 4. The most refreshing thing about Walter, aside from that sly- sense of humor, is his faculty of letting nothing bother him. He is never upset, never ruffled, no matter what happens or is about to happen. One could use a trite word and call Walter sophisti- cated, but it would not be appreciated by him. He is, neverthe- less, well read in contemporary literature as well as in the com- pulsory classics, and knows a good deal about music and art. His faithful work back-stage in the Dramatic Society for four years is evidence of his particular interest in the stage as a whole, which includes its technical as well as its artistic aspects. Walter is majoring in English, and is another B.L.S. man whose chief achievement there was being on time every day. JOHN E. MACKIN, Jr., A.B. 9 Ticknor Street, South Boston, Mass. Gold Key, Vice-Pres. 3; Senior Advisory Committee 4; Sodality 2, 3, 4; Heights 3. Curtain! Enter a tall good-looking young man. Immediately he attracts you. Who is he ? Why, Jack Mackin, who has not only that something plus that the psychologists talk about, but also that extra something known as personality. Ever in the center of a large group, Jack ' s character is a blend of those qualities which make for comradeship. Since he is a fellow to whom studies come easily. Jack was ever the Beau Brummel of college social gatherings. He has a wide variety of interests ranging from swimming and gunnery to aviation and foreign affairs. Withal, he is a member of that esoteric group which specializes in higher mathematics. We hope that success may attend Jack as it has his namesake, John J. Mackin, the famous B.C. rooter. THOMAS F. MADDEN, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 3 Old Morton Street, Mattapan, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Chemist ' s Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Tom is very definitely scientific in his tendencies. A graduate of Boston English High, he majored in chemistry at the Heights, and takes his degree in that department. For four years he was active in the affairs of the Chemist ' s Club, where he showed a remark- able talent for analysis and mixing of chemicals. His scientific bent influences even his leisure hours, for he is greatly inter- ested in the construction of model railroads. Along sporting lines, his particular penchant is toward hockey, in which Tom is a most talented performer. His experience in science has taught him to be precise, logical, and methodical in his work, and whether or not he continues his work in this field, these qualities will be in- dispensable for Tom in any position. ROBERT W. MAGWOOD, B.S. (BIOLOGY) 27 Stone Avenue, Somerville, Mass. Class Council 1; Cross and Crown 4; So- dality 3, 4: Italian Academy 1, 2; German Academy 1, 2, 3; Pre-Med. Seminar 3, 4. This graduate of Somerville High School enrolled at the college in one of the most difficult courses, the B. S. course in Biology. He is still a member of that select group, and his work is of a high grade, — high enough to combine with his other accomplishments and earn him membership in the Cross and Crown. Although Bob has been a member of the Italian Academy, he is more particularly interested in German. He took part in the German play presented in conjunction with the seventy-fifth anniversary of the college, and also won a prize for good work in the study of that language. Bob is also a fan and close observer of our na- tional pastime. HARRY P. MAGNO, A.B. 79 Tileston Street, Everett, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2; Rifle 1; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Cross and Crown 4. In Pre-medical students one looks almost automatically for those characteristics which are the marks of a successful physician. Harry has these in abundance. A suave sociability of manner, coupled with a fine intellectual acumen, makes him an ideal can- didate for a distinguished profession. A diplomat par excellence, Harry is invaluable in a group, — his calm insistence being as irresistible as his persuasive cajolery. He has a subtle quality of character, (and a rare one), that makes all who meet him quick and lasting friends. We are certain that Harry ' s future in med- icine will show the same quiet and sure success which is even now a part of him; but his greatest triumph will be in his easy friendships with his fellow men, which is after all the art of living. ZE- tf AMBROSE J. MAHONEY, A.B. (HONORS) 4 Wakullah Street, Eoxbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4. This busy young man, who came to the Heights from Boston Col- lege High School, is well-known for his sodality activities. He was a member of that organization for four years, and became Chairman of the Eucharistic Committee in his senior year. This job entailed, among other duties, the task of distributing the magazines, the Queen ' s Work and Jesuit Missions, every month. Amby had this task so well organized, that you could take hardly a step without bumping into one of his agents with magazines to sell. Many of the dances at the Perkins Institute for the Blind have depended for their success on Amby ' s efforts, while he is also of great help to the Sisters who care for the Ne- groes at the Blessed Sacrament Church. A. J. ' s major subject is English, but Catholic Action runs a close second. JAMES J. MAHONEY, A.B. 8 Wetherell Street, Newton Upper Falls, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Hockey 1, 2; Rifle Team 1, 2; Radio Club 2. Jim came to Boston College from the suburb of Newton Upper Falls, and has proved himself to be a quiet, conscientious worker since his freshman year. In his first two years, he played hockey, and joined the Rifle Team. Since then, Jim has confined his in- terest in sports to intra-mural sports, where he finds the competi- tion as keen, and the exertion as enjoyable as in the official athletic events of the college. Jim has also been a member of the Sodality for four years, but most of his spare time has been de- voted to his hobby of horses. In connection with this interest, Jim has been a member of the cavalry in the National Guards, but would like to enter the Army Air Corps eventually. m-y rf WILLIAM A. MAISEY, Jr., A.B. 29 Prospect Street, Charlestown, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4: Sociology Academy 4. Bill is one of 40 ' s leading advocates of intramural sports. On any- fair day, Bill could always be found out on the field engaging in any and all types of sport. Bill ' s love for sports was developed at Charlestown High, where he was a member of the football, base- ball, and track teams. Bill dropped athletics upon entering col- lege, however, in order to devote more time to his studies in Busi- ness and Economics. He did not sever all connections with foot- ball, though, for he found time to be of considerable aid to the Charlestown Town Team as its very capable center. While at college, Bill gave much of his free time to the Sodality and the Sociology Academy. His ready wit made our college days mem- orable ones. FRANCIS X. MALLOY, A.B. (HONORS) 16 Quincy Terrace, Lynn, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Philosophy Academy S.- Fulton 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1, 2. Here is the man who stood out from the rest of his classmates by reason of the fact that he always knew what matter had been covered in the last quiz period, and what matter was due in the next quiz period. At St. Mary ' s High School in Lynn, his speaking ability made him valedictorian of his graduating class. At B. C. he has gone in for Sodality and debating work, while maintain- ing a healthy interest in all sports, especially baseball and foot- ball. For relaxation, he attends the movies, where he can forget the problem of whether or not he is seeing by means of the spe- cies impressa, and concentrate on just seeing. After graduation, Frank intends to continue his studies in English, or enter the teaching profession. JOHN M. MALLOY, A.B. 23 Oak Street, Beverly Farms, Mass. Class Council 2; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, Pres. 4; Economics Acad- emy 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1. This gentleman, who for some unknown reason is called Pete, came to us from Beverly High School where he starred in foot- ball, baseball and studies. He has continued his good work at the Heights for four years, especially in the classroom and as a debater. His activities in the Marquette and Fulton eventually led to his election as president of the latter society for the last half of the senior year. While baseball is the only sport in which he engaged actively at the college, he maintains his interest in the other sports at all times. Pete earned membership in both the Junior and Senior honor Societies, and was a steady member of the sodality. With his usual energy, he also lectured for the Economics Academy. ELMER J. MARSH, A.B. 57 Rock Street, Norwood, Mass. Sodality 1, 3, 4; Glee Club 1; Play Shop 2. Elmer, better known as Joe, comes from Norwood where he at- tended Norwood High School. He was very active both scholas- tically and athletically, participating in football, track, and de- bating, although his interests in college w ere mostly scholastic. He was interested in sports in his home town, both as a spectator and participant. Besides the usual sports, Joe is also interested in electricity and radios, a hobby in keeping with his practical nature. As a student of business, he has shown great possibilities for a successful career in business enterprise. Joe is a quiet and pensive lad who does not care for notoriety but is a good worker, and this should be a big asset to him when he enters business. 11 tail BRADFORD MARTIN, B.S. (EDUCATION) 1 Warren Avenue, Plymouth, Mass. Football 1, 2, 3: Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4. Actions speak louder than words, and Brad is our best example of this axiom in years. For four years he has been a mainstay of the baseball team, and is regarded as one of the finest big league prospects to be matriculated at the Heights in quite some time. However, his athletic career does not end on the diamond, for he has performed equally well on the gridiron; he was rather an accomplished center during his first three years here, before devoting his efforts solely to baseball. Definitely one of the silent men of the class, this loyal son of Plymouth has carved himself a place among our baseball greats with his boisterous bat, which more than once gave the Eagles the margin of victory. JOSEPH E. MARTINI, A.B. 411 Broadway, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4. This pre-medico from Somerville is noted for the persistence and thoroughness with which he goes about his studies and lab- oratory experiments. Joe was at his best in the biology labora- tory, where he was always well-prepared on the matter, whether it was gross or microscopic anatomy. This seemed to be the re- sult of diligent study, but it must have been second nature to him. For Joe ' s nightly job of relaying newspapers left him very little time for study. We like Joe for his easy, simple philosophy. Never one to get excited, his temperament was contagious. There are many being graduated who are bigger in physical stature than Joe Martini, but not many richer in those qualities we ad- mire and respect. JOHN P. MASTERSON, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 64 Eliot Street, Milton, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Vice-Prefect 4; Marquette 1; Track 1; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Dramatic Society 2, 3, 4, Recording Sec. 4; One-Act Playshop 1. John is a talented thespian who has a Hking for humorous roles. He attended Milton High School where he received a high aver- age in chemistry. His favorite activity is the Dramatic Society, and he was Recording Secretary for three years. John has really developed into a talented actor, and should go a long way on the stage. But chemistry seems to interest him more, and prob- ably will be his life-work, while acting will be his hobby. He is a lad with fire and enthusiasm, and an eager, guesting mind. His many arguments and guestions in the Psychology class keep every one listening, and his clear remarks in the chemistry class often aid the boys to understand the matter more fully. JOHN F. MITCHELL, B.S. (EDUCATION) 28 Spaulding Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Von Pastor History Academy 1; Fencing 1; Yacht Club 1, 2. Mitch is a changeable combination of wit and serious deter- mination. Graduating from Boston Enghsh as vice-president of his class, he came to Boston College where he took a definite place in the Class of ' 40. John is a very enthusiastic yachtsman and spent much of his time in the little dingies on the Charles River. In Freshman year, he was a member of the Fencing team and for the whole of his college career he has been active in the Sodality. Lacking nothing to be desired in a true gentleman, Mitch leaves the Heights with the same winning way that he had upon entrance here, and to all who know him, his success is as if pre-established, even though John is not a supporter of Leibnitz, PATRICK I. MOGAN, A.B. 311 Nahatan Street, Norwood, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4. A serious seeker after knowledge, Pat is one who never hesitates to ask for an explanation of any point which escapes his com- prehension. Pat is one of the most consistent habitues of the Tower Reference Library, and seems to be more successful than the rest of us in trying to read all the volumes in that popular (?) library. Supplementing his intellectual interests, Pat is rather a good performer in baseball, basketball, and golf. The last-named is his favorite sport, and he frequently serves as a golf instructor. Pat ' s major is Sociology, and he belongs to the Sociology Acad- emy. He expects to enter the field of social service after gradua- tion and, if interest and extensive reading in the field mean any- thing, Pat will be a success. FRANCIS P. MOLLOY, A.B. (HONORS) 53 Mozart Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Alpha Sigma Nu 4, Treas.; Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 3, 4; Philosophy Acad- emy 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4; Greek Academy 1, 2. One of three answering the harrassed professor who calls Mol- loy, Pat ranks among the intellectuals of the class. No Dean ' s List is complete without his name, and this record has earned him membership in the Cross and Crown, as well as the Alpha Sigma Nu National Honor Society. At the same time, Pat is an expert on sporting affairs. He is now contemplating a future as a criminologist and finds enough hope in this field to repay 3:15 to 4:30 classes. While at Boston Latin School he garnered many prizes; among them were the Fiske Greek Medal, a Latin prize and a Franklin medal. Pat is one of our regular B. C. rooters and always has a 50 yd. line seat for any and all B. C. games. JOHN C. MOYNIHAN, A.B, (HONORS) 50 High Street, Andover, Mass. Cross and Crown 4: Sodality 3, 4; Writer ' s Club 2, 3, 4. Secretary 3; Stylus, Contrib. Ed. 3, Feature Ed. 4; One-Act Playshop 3. Our lone representative from Andover, John Moynihan, attended Punchard High School, where he won prizes in speaking and writing. Moy is tremendously interested in writing, and it is his hobby as well as his field of concentration. For the last three years, he has written extensively for the Stylus, and has also been an active member of the Writer ' s Club. Even in his Sopho- more year, his talents had developed enough to earn him second prize in the Diamond Jubilee Ode Contest. John has also acted in his own play, produced by the One- Act Playshop in 1939. This literary activity is sufficient indication of John ' s writing ability, and he intends to engage actively in writing after graduation, and, perhaps, make this ability pay good dividends. DONALD V. MULCAHY, A.B. 46 Franklon Avenue, Brockton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 4; Spanish Academy 1, 2; Rifle Club 1; Sociology Academy 4. Don is the type of fellow who really puts the life into college life. Wherever he appears in a class or group, there is liable to be an eruption of pranks and jokes. He and Tom Gill are the two greatest class disrupters in the college, and many a professor has turned gray trying to keep a jump ahead of Don. Yet, Don is one of the most persistent questioners in the Criminol- ogy class, and is eager to discuss all sorts of social problems with the professor as well as with his classmates. Another side of Don ' s character is revealed by the fact that he was the one who caused the hand-carved model of the Munster at Ulm to be resurrected from storage, restored to its original beauty, and placed on exhibition in the Library. JOHN J. MULLIGAN, A.B. (HONORS) 7 Roseland Street, Dorchester Class Council 1; Cross and Crown 4; So- dality 2, 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2, 3, 4, Vice-Pres. 1; Greek Academy 1; Latin Academy 1. John is one of the few seniors who are majoring in German. And, he assures us, he does not study this language merely to be able to read in the original German the works of Kant, Hegel and Schopenhauer. His interest in the language began at Latin School, where he annexed two prizes for studious effort. Since coming to Boston College, he has held many jobs after school hours, and this has curtailed his extra-curricular activities. MuH usually associates with Gene McAuliffe, the other German scholar, and together they form a board of experts on the famed Nibelungenlied. John has two ambitions: to prove that he has greater speed afoot than Vin Nasca, and to put his German to practical use either as a teacher, or as an agent in the foreign diplomatic service. JOHN C. MURPHY, A.B. 7 Dresden Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 2, 3, 4; Fulton 4; Economics Acad- emy 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1. John is an exponent of the theory that successful men are seen and not heard. Ever since he entered the college from Boston College High, John has gone along in his quiet way. He has ap- plied himself diligently to his studies, and has also been very active in Sodality work. In the latte r activity, he served on the Apostolic Committee in his senior year. John, however, does not confine his efforts to the intellectual sphere; he is also keenly in- terested in all major sports, principally hockey, golf and base- ball as an active participant, and football as a spectator. John selected Economics as his field of specialization and joined the academy devoted to that subject. When he completes his present course, John is anxious to acquire a Master ' s Degree in Eco- nomics. Z -f JOHN J. MURPHY, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 31 Garrison Avenue, West Somerville, Mass. Sodality 2, 3; Spanish Academy 1, 2, 3; Sociology Academy 4; Track 2; Yacht 1, 3, 4. John came to the Heights from Somerville via Boston College High School. A student in the B. S. course, he majored in sociol- ogy and during his senior year was affiliated with the Sociology Academy. Among other subjects, Spanish was John ' s forte, and he was prominent for three years in the activities of the Spanish Academy. He is interested in all sports and competed as a runner in high school. John is also noted among his friends as a hu- morist and perhaps that explains why he lists as one of his hob- bies collecting attendance slips. In any case, John can be de- pended on to enliven any group with his cheery wit. John ' s work is characterized by determination and efficiency, and we hope that these qualities gain the recognition they merit. EDMUND J. NAGLE, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 557 Summer Street, Arlington, Mass. Sodality i, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 3; Glee Club 1; Heights 2; Sociology Sem- inar 4; German Academy 1, 2; Track 1, 2. After gradu ating from Arlington High in the spring of ' 36, Ed Nagle made a rather unobtrusive entrance into collegiate life. Engaging in such diversified activities as the German Academy, the Heights, and Track, Ed was making no little effort to become in truth, the well-rounded man. The selection of Criminology as his major in Junior, caused his active participation in the So- ciology Seminar, as well as the Law and Government Academy. He is an interested spectator at all sporting events, and even car- ries his enthusiasm to the extent of keeping an album of famous sporting figures and events. Work outside of school has found him as a library assistant, a counterman, and even a knight of the flashlight and torn stub. J!I ' p?w ' VINICIO H. NASCA, A.B. (HONORS) 16 Burgoyne Street, Dorchester, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Italian Academy, Sec. 1, 2, 3, President 4; Stylus, Advertising Manager 4. Vin is the outstanding exponent in the senior class of the great- ness of Italian culture. Energy and thoroughness characterize his work both in classroom and in extra-curricular activities. Of the latter, the Italian Academy has commanded most of his atten- tion. Even at Dorchester High School, Vinicio was near the top of his class in scholastic standing, and at B. C. has been a con- sistent member of the Dean ' s List. When constant studying be- gins to cobweb his brain, Vin has the remedy in his hobby of flying. Vin is majoring in Italian, although he already seems to know the language as well as some of us know English. In any case, he hopes to continue his studies, or obtain a teaching posi- tion. JOHN F. NASH, A.B. 215 Vernon Street, Norwood, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2; French Academy 1, 2; So- ciology Academy 4. The less animated of the Nash-Lally combine is Professor John F. Nash. Never excited or ruffled, John always speaks in his low, measured tones, which however manage to convey all shades of meaning. In keeping with his nature, he also delights in the delicate nuances of subtle humor, but scorns the boister- ous antics which some label comedy. One of our many com- muters, John hails from Norwood, where he edited the news- paper for the local high school. He continued his journalistic work for two years on the Heights, but in the last two years, de- voted most of his attention to his major subject. Sociology, and to Sodality work. He hopes to follow up this interest at the B. C. School of Social Work after graduation. EVERETT L. NOONAN, A.B. 37 Dana Street, Cambridge, Mass. Dramatic Society 3; Law and Government Academy 4; Sociology Academy 4; Ger- man Academy 2; Track 1, 2, 3, 4. This graduate of Boston College High is the successor to his close friend, Louis De Pass, as the pole vaulter and tumbler par ex- cellence of the Senior Class. He has competed in the former ca- pacity for Jack Ryder for four years, while he practised the latter art between the halves of the B. C. football games during the same years. Among his hobbies, he lists music, art and history. The latter subject almost became his major, but Sociology even- tually won out, and now he is a member of the Sociology Acad- emy. He is also a charter member of the Boiler-Room Bench Club. He has not yet chosen his future career, but he has one ambition — to go footing around the world on his own. Perhaps his future may crystallize along the way. MICHAEL J. NOONAN, Jr., A.B. 109 Antrim Street, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Or- chestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy S.- French Academy 1,2; Latin Academy 1,2; Band 1, 2, 3, 4. Mike has been the class musician for the last few years. A talented saxophone player, he has practically played his way through college. He has been a member of the school band for four years, and of the Glee Club and the Boston College Or- chestra. One of the most embarrassing moments of Mike ' s col- lege years was when he attempted to play a clarinet solo for the members of the Senior Class and the clar inet refused to co- operate. Mike came to the Heights from Cambridge High and Latin School, and in the Junior year majored in Sociology in order to prepare himself for the B. C. School of Social Service. Of generous and manly disposition coupled with a fine sense of responsibility, he should rise in the field he has chosen. MARK H. NORTON, A.B. 327 Neponset Avenue, Neponset, Mass. Law and Government Academy 3, 4; So- dality 3, 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. A graduate of Boston College High School, Mark is one of our few representatives of Neponset. He is keenly interested in gov- ernment, and selected political science as his major. He also be- came a member of the Law and Government Academy, where, under the leadership of Dr. Doyle, all sorts of governmental problems are solved, except the problem of how to govern a class of students. At the same time, Mark is a man of classical tastes, and likes nothing better than to relax by reading a good book or by listening to music. Mark is also an ardent rooter for the football team, and a good performer in the classroom. He is well equipped to follow some phase of governmental work, and we feel his success in that field is assured. BERNARD J. OATES, A.B. 55 Union Street, Watertown, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; League of Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. A good student and thorough gentleman, Bernie is a resident of Watertown and a graduate of Boston College High. Upon en- tering Boston College, he decided to specialize in economics, a subject in which he has shown great proficiency. This study also aids him considerably in following world affairs, of which he is a keen student. Yet, Bernie takes time out for relaxation by playing or watching baseball, football, and hockey. No special- ist, Bernie possesses great natural ability in all three sports. He is also an active member of the Law and Government Acad- emy and the Sodality. Bernie is fortunate in possessing a jovial disposition and a personable nature. He never loses that de- termination to finish what he has begun. Certainly such char- acteristics augur well for the future. FRANCIS M. O ' BRIEN, A.B. (HONORS) 24 Sharon Street, Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1: Law and Government Academy 3. 4; French Acad- emy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1; Rifle 1; Boxing 2; Sociology Academy 4. Frank is a product of Cathedral High School, where he played football, basketball and baseball for three years, and became Salutatorian of his class in the senior year. Since coming to B.C., he has become deeply interested in sociological problems, and joined the Sociology Academy in his last year. Quiet and friendly, Frank is usually seen with Al Schneiderhan or Frank Malloy, but many others also have heard his story of his trip to the Cotton Bowl in Texas. Obie obtains his greatest relaxation and enjoyment from deep-sea fishing, but music runs a close second. As a practical supplement to the sociological course, Frank works in his parish CYO organization, and looks forward to a career as a probation officer or prison official later on. GEORGE T. O ' BRIEN, A.B. 4 Florence Street, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 1,2, 3,4; Glee Club 1,2,3; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1, 2; Latin Academy 1, 2. All those who know George are familiar with his sporadic laugh, manifesting a congenial spirit and a jovial sense of humor. He chose Economics as his major to help him cope with the prob- lems of his field of endeavor, namely business. Extending his Christmas vacation a few days, Obie joined the migration to the Cotton Bowl and enjoyed the best time in his life. Since much of his interest is directed to the realm of sports, he is willing to expound the relative merits of his favorite players and teams with more enthusiasm than is displayed by a manager com- plaining to an umpire. Liked for his genuine sincerity and frank- ness, he will be remembered as a fine fellow and a good friend. FRANCIS J. O ' CALLAGHAN, A.B. 11 Fairfax Road, Milton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; Sub Turri 4; Marquette 1. Tall of stature and very easy going, this young man has con- tributed much to the success of his class. Frank joined our ranks back in 1936 after graduating from Mihon High School. He has been an active member of the Sodality for the past four years and has shown a great deal of interest in the Economics Acad- emy in Junior and Senior. Frank chose Economics as his major in view of the fact that he hopes to enter the insurance business. Though never engaged in college athletics, Frank is a fine tennis player and one to be respected on a skating rink. Always en- thusiastic for anything pertaining to Boston College, we have no doubt that his Alma Mater will feel the same for him. JOHN J. O ' DONNELL, A.B. 6 Columbus Avenue, Somerville, Mass. Greek Academy 1, 2: Writer ' s Club 3, 4; Latin Academy 1, 2; Philosophy Academy 3, 4; Sodality 1, 2. Towering both literally and figuratively above the other gentle- men at the Heights is John O ' Donnell. So quiet and unobtrusive is this senior that he would be known only to a few intimate friends at Boston College but for his remarkable ability at playing the piano. Of all the occasions on which John appeared at the ivories, the most memorable will be his playing at the Theatre party in Junior Week and at the rally which preceded the Boston College triumph over Holy Cross in our Senior year. With his close association with music, it is but natural that the Sub Turri dance, which he as chairman planned, should be a success. Well equipped by nature and industry, John O ' Donnell will reflect glory on his Alma Mater. J5 ' l I! ' FREDERICK J. O ' HARA, A.B. 36 Holbrook Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Writer ' s Club 3, 4; Heights 4; Stylus 2, 3, 4; Fencing, Manager 4. Fred is a resident of Jamaica Plain, and came to the Heights by way of Boston College High School, where he devoted much time to literary endeavors. This field has continued to attract him at B. C, where he majored in English and wrote extensively for the Stylus during the last three years. He was also on the staff of the Heights, as well as being a member of the Writer ' s Club. To provide a little break in this round of literary activity, Fred managed the Fencing team for one year. He is fond of sports, though his hobbies are reading and writing, with social activities not being neglected by any means. Fred ' s literary talent should aid him in securing and holding a desirable posi- tion. JOHN C. O ' HARA, A.B. (HONORS) 18 Vera Street, Dorchester, Mass. Cross and Crown, Vice-Commander 4; So- dality 1, 2. 3, 4; Dramatics 3; Marquette 1, 2, Treasurer 2; Economics Academy 3, 4, Treasurer 4; French Academy 2: Greek Academy, Vice-Pres. 1; Latin Academy 1; Track 1, 2. Jack ' s list of activities speaks well enough for his ability in many fields, yet his interests extend beyond these more formal activ- ities. For instance, he rowed as a member of the B. C. crew in the great match race of 1939 with Boston University. He will also en- tertain on request by singing in a quartet with any three other musically inclined classmates. On the intellectual side. Jack has appeared before various audiences as a lecturer for the Eco- nomics Academy. His other accomplishments are too numerous to mention, but their quality was recognized in his selection as a Vice-Commander of the Cross and Crown. Jack may pursue busi- ness courses in a graduate school after his graduation. ZH- Atf ROBERT F. O ' MALLEY, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) Pond Street, Ashland, Mass.. Cross and Crown 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Radio Club 2, 3; Crystal 4; Chemist ' s Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Bob O ' Malley, that little man from Ashland, is one of the most promising members of the Senior Class. His size, however, is not indicative of his activity. At Ashland High School, Bob was salu- tatorian of his class. Bob has shown himself to be a true scientist and a gentleman at the Heights, where he is majoring in Chem- istry. He is a radio amateur and, although he won ' t admit it, he is considered to be an authority on electric clocks. He finds re- laxation in classical music and in attending social functions. A man of sound judgment and keen intellect, he works hard on his chosen subject, and should be well-equipped to assume the posi- tion in a lacquer company which he expects to obtain after graduation. FRANCIS I. O ' NEIL, A.B. 873 East 2nd Street, South Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 2; French Academy 3; Greek Academy 1. Another of those silent men from South Boston is Frank O ' Neil. He never says much, but Hstens with pleasure to the more voci- ferous of his classmates. As a student of English, perhaps he is looking for some hitherto unknown idioms and constructions of the English language. Frank came to Boston College from the James St. institution, and majored in English. He was a member of the sodality for four years, and also attended meetings of the Greek and French Academies. On the athletic side, Frank is chiefly interested in baseball, football, and hockey, although wrestling should come in there somewhere, for Steve Casey, the wrestling champion, is a close relative of his. His other interest is in the CYO movement. k JOSEPH W. O ' NEIL, A.B. 22 Vista Street, Maiden, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Glee Club 1; Marquette 2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 4. A resident of Maiden, and a graduate of Maiden Catholic High School, where he was valedictorian, Joe majored in biology in the Pre-Med. Course at Boston College. Naturally, he intends to enter medical school, and follow the medical profession. During his senior year, he was a member of the Pre-Med. Seminar and Chemist ' s Club. While attending B. C, Joe considered browsing about the library his favorite hobby. Among other interests, he counts photography and hiking, as well as the popular national sports. A student with a scientific leaning, Joe is the quiet schol- arly type, who slowly but steadily won the warm affection of his fellow-seniors, who see in him the ideal type of gentleman. JOHN F. O ' RIORDAN, A.B. 20 Carlton Street, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, 4; Philosophy Academy 3, 4; Writer ' s Club 3, 4; Track 2, 3; Boxing 2, 3, 4, Here is our modern crusader, reformer, agitator, or what have you. John majors in Enghsh but his fields of concentration far transcend the hmits of Hterature and grammar. He is the de- fender of all that is attacked, the foe of all that is illogical. In his four years at the Heights, John, together with Tom Duffey, and Frank Ahearn, the Philosophy Minute Men, helped set a new high in proposing objections on matters philosophical, re- ligious, social, economical, and on sundry other subjects. He is the brother of the well known Charlie of the Class of 1939, and has continued the family fame as a debater, lecturer, and re- former. If the world doesn ' t progress, it won ' t be John ' s fault. :!i ' f tf ANTHONY PESTANA, Jr., B.S. (EDUCATION) 67 Winter Street, Taunton, Mass. Spanish Academy 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1, 2, 3; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. A baseball player and honor man from Taunton High, Tony entered this school with the intention of bringing a share of Catholic culture and refinement back to the home town. He has accomplished this nicely in educational and social activities at home, while he busied himself with such activities as baseball and participation in the Spanish Academy here at school. He is an ardent admirer of Salazar and his work for the cooperative state in Portugal. Naturally he also likes Spanish literature and painting. Besides baseball, he has also played Soccer for ama- teur teams in the vicinity of his home town. He possesses a fine singing voice, and has often used it to entertain his friends at home and at many social affairs. JOHN J. PHILBIN, A.B. 19 Revere Street, Everett, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 4; Law and Government Academy 4. In his senior year, quiet, unassuming John blossomed forth as one of Harry Doyle ' s better speakers on Law and Government. An active member of the Sodality for three years, John was re- warded with a position on the Eucharistic Committee and a post on one of the Sodality Speaking Teams. John ' s interest in extra- curricular activities dates back to his years at Everett High, where he was an active member of the Spanish Club and the school orchestra. Like many other seniors, John likes to engage in an occasional bull session, especially if it concerns current affairs, which is one of his favorite topics. John, with an eye to the future, majored in Economics, and plans on a career in business. ROBERT M. PHILLIPS, A.B. 253 Harold Street, Roxbury, Mass. Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Orchestra 1, 2, 3; Mar- quette 2; Latin Academy 1, 2, 4, Vice- Pres. 4; Stylus 3, 4, Associate Editor 4. Bob Phillips is one of the few seniors competent to judge the respective merits of the B.S. and the A.B. courses. He began his college career in the science course, then shifted to his real love, the classical course. English is Bob ' s major field, and music is his minor. Combining business with pleasure, Bob rushes down to Symphony Hall every Friday afternoon to usher at the concerts. Not only does he listen to, and appreciate good music, he also plays it on the piano. Bob carries his interest in good music into his extra-curricular activities, for he has submitted several schol- arly articles on music to the Stylus. Perhaps he is best known for that diligence and earnestness of his, which will prove an asset to him later on in his life work. ROBERT T. PICARDI, A.B. 11 Monument Square, Charlestown, Mass. Class Council 1; Cross and Crown 4; So- dality 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2. Pic used to be able to knock off his lOO ' s in Math with a mini- mum of exertion, but in his senior year the more difficult courses compelled him to work for perfect marks. Even at Boston Latin, Pic was the despair of the teachers, for he never failed to write a perfect paper in Math, and then annex extra points for neatness, thus earning a pluperfect mark. Despite these efforts, Pic is an easy-going, hearty-laughing individual whose pas- time is sampling choice dishes of Italian food, and proclaiming their excellence. Without much apparent effort, Pic has man- aged to maintain a magna cum laude average for four years. This makes him one of the most intellectual members of the Ma- rine Corps Reserve. Pic will be an officer in this organization upon his graduation. ROBERT W. POWER, A.B. 57 Irving Street, Waltham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Writer ' s Club 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Latin Academy 1, 2. Although Bob would be the first to deny it, he comes as close as anyone to accomplishing the impossible task of being a walking refutation of the old axiom, Nee scire fas est omnia. Besides maintaining an encyclopedic knowledge on matters of current import, he is well informed in literature, the theatre, and music. There are some men whose brilliance is merely conversa- tional; this is far from the case with Bob. His facility with the pen is well known; his poetry being often unorthodox but always exhilarating, his prose sometimes scant but always interesting. Bob ' s field of endeavor is Economics, but, by his own request, no idle predictions are made for his future. He doesn ' t want to spoil the surprise for himself when it really comes. RICHARD F. POWERS, Jr., A.B. 83 Maplewood Street, Watertown, Mass. President of Class 2, 3; Class Council 1; Gold Key 3; Cross and Crown A; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3, 4. All who know Dick are acquainted with his ability as a kidder. Democratic and likeable, Dick will often corral one fellow in con- versation, give the rest the wink, and proceed with a tall story until the listener realizes what is going on, whereupon everyone will have a hearty laugh. Beneath his jovial and suave manner one may easily discern an ambitious and sincere character, which manifests itself in all his activities. Dick keeps in shape by running and playing golf, but his chief interest is in art and de- signing. Many will recall his clever drawing which appeared in the Heights before the Cotton Bowl game. As a hard-working and enthusiastic class president, he gave the Class of ' 40 two very successful years of leadership in Sophomore and Junior. ; w THOMAS J. POWERS, B.S. (HISTORY) 402 Columbia Road, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; Vice- Pres. of Class 4; Von Pastor History Acad- emy 4; Track 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1. Although it wasn ' t until his Senior year that Tom came into his own as a football player, his whole collegiate career was dotted with many substantial achievements along athletic and schol- astic lines. He was chosen as All-Boston quarterback while at Boston English. Here at Boston College, he has been a member of the Baseball and Track teams as well. Because he is an ex- tremely likeable fellow, he was elected to the office of Vice-Presi- dent of the Senior Class. He was a member of the Historical So- ciety, since History is his major; and also joined the Sodality and the Glee Club. He would rather participate in, than watch any sports, for he is convinced that athletics provide a great moral as well as physical education. WILLIAM I. POWERS, Jr., A.B. 308 Massapoag Avenue, Sharon, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy 2; Chemist ' s Club 2. 3, 4; Tennis 4. A future medicine man from the hill country of the South Shore, Will has not confined his cuts and slices to human anatomy alone, but has brought them to the golf course and tennis courts where he exhibits his athletic prowess, when the weather is sea- sonable. An active member of the German Academy and the Chemist ' s Club, our man of dual personality still finds time to compete academically, and rank high in Pre-medical circles. The highlight of Will ' s career here at the Heights was his trip to the deep South and to Clemson with the tennis team, a trip that saw Will acquire a deep tan, a southern drawl and an aptitude for fixing flats that is unparalleled in history. ii ' j lAMES W. PRATT, A.B. 73 Standish Avenue, South Brainlree, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 3, 4. Modest and business-like, Jim may be found during any free hour with his inseparable companion, Roland Kearns. Jim ma- jors in the study of French, and is an expert on all phases of the subject, from the romanticism of Corneille to the satire of Mo- liere. In addition, Jim is an exacting student of philosophy, and likes to express his opinions with a philosophical trend of thought. Football and baseball are his two favorite sports, and, as an interested spectator, he derives great pleasure from watch- ing these two games. Music is his hobby, especially choral music, and as an assistant director of a parochial choir, he has an opportunity to develop his talents along this line. Jim is a fine fellow, and makes a true and sincere friend. PATRICK A. RAFFERTY, A.B. (HONORS) 47 Brackett Street, Brighton, Mass. Class Treasurer 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Manager of Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Manager of Orchestra 2, 3, 4; Manager of Band 2, 3, 4; Secretary of German Academy 3; Track 1; Golf 2, 3, 4; Yacht 2, Pat is the versatile gentleman from Brighton who is so profi- cient in music and efficient in administration. The fact that for three years he has been manager of the Glee Club, Band, and Orchestra is ample pr oof of this. A graduate of Boston College High, where he won the New England Catholic High School Dash Championship in 1936, Pat has continued to take part in ath- letics at the college, and has shown great ability as a golfer. He majored in Accounting, a field which he hopes to follow up by obtaining a M.B.A. and C.P.A. His ability as a pianist is too well known to mention. He is always cheerful, and his energy seems boundless; these qualities supplement his natural ability very nicely. ; : i§£Jf JAMES W. REARDON, A.B. 24 Belcher Circle, East Milton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; German Academy 1, 2; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3. Happy-go-lucky Jim! Without a care in the world, Jim could be found almost any free period (and some class periods, too) down on the field throwing or kicking a borrowed football. At B. C. High, Jim was a sure point winner for the swimming team, and even today his chief interest lies in swimming and sailing. Jim has always had a keen interest in extra-curricular activities, and we of the German Academy will never forget his informative, illustrated lecture of his travels in Germany. He was also an active member of the Sodality, the Economics Academy and the Chemist ' s Club. Jim leaves us with the merry warning, Watch me in the future, I ' m an optimist! JOSEPH B. REGAN, A.B. (HONORS) 62 Bateman Street, Haverhill, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1; Sub Turri 4. Quiet but friendly Joe Regan came to us four years ago from St. James High School in Haverhill. He majored in Economics, and has continued the fine scholastic work which characterized his high school days. His best friend is Frank Smith, a fellow econ- omist, whose effervescent personality provides at the same time a contrast and a complement to Joe ' s personality. Most of the time, Joe is merely an attentive listener to the many noisy dis- cussions which take place in the lunchroom. Occasionally, how- ever, he is drawn into the vortex, and acquits himself creditably. Joe has been a member of the Marquette Debating Society for one year, and of the sodality for four years. We hope that Joe may survive the wit of Schmitty, and go on to a successful career. :!i-y FREDERICK W. RICCIARDELLL B.S. (EDUCATION) 199 Lexington Street, East Boston, Mass. Boxing 1; Von Pastor History Academy 4. A major in history and government, Fred ' s plying questions often cleared up many a nebulous historical account, and if this were the only thing for which we are grateful to him, it would be enough; but Ricki ' s quiet humor has caused many an enjoyable session in the rotunda. If he retains all the knowledge that he has gleaned in the past four years, he can easily qualify as the author of the next Webster ' s dictionary. Fred was especially proficient in Junior Philosophy, though we can not truthfully say it was his favorite study. We are certain that Fred ' s ability to make friends will stand by him for a long time, and this quality, coupled with his quiet modesty, will take him far in any vocation that he chooses. DANIEL F. RILEY, A.B. 214 Bennington Street, East Boston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 4; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1; Latin Academy 1; Soc iology Academy 4. This quiet but popular senior comes from Noddle Island by way of Boston College High School. In his first two years at the Heights, Dan seemed to specialize in languages, for he became a member of the Latin, Greek and French Academies. In his third year, however, Dan elected sociology as his major, and began attending meetings of the Law and Government and Sociology Academies. Like most of us, Dan has chiefly a spectator ' s in- terest in baseball and football. His pleasant personality and quiet humor are pleasant additions to any group. Dan has, as yet, no definite plans for the future, but perhaps his interest in sociology may lead him into some phase of that field. LEO H. RILEY, Jr., A.B. 173 Jackson Road, Newton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2; German Academy 2; Pre- Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Ten- nis 1; Fencing 1, 2, 3, 4. An honor graduate of the High School of Our Lady in Newton, Leo came to the Heights, and combined the strangely disparate interests of medical studies and fencing. Leo has been pot- boiling with the rest of the Pre-Medicos up in the science labs for four years, and evidently with success, for he was among the first to be accepted by Boston University Medical School. For re- laxation, Leo divides his time between witnessing the Eagles on the gridiron, ice and diamond, and active participation in the arts of fencing and skiing. He has been one of the most promi- nent fencers on the Heights for the past three years. Another ac- complishment of which Leo is proud is his handling of the oars in the great canoe race with B. U. last year. HAROLD S. RINGER, A.B. (HONORS) 144 Brunswick Street, Roxbury. Mass. Economics Academy 3; German Academy 1, 2; Junior Pic 3. The small, rotund gentleman with the business-like air who greets you in the N.Y.A. office is Harry Ringer. As an ardent fan of Artie Shaw, he is willing to discuss dance-bands with you any- time, and is perhaps even willing to give you a sample of his own jiving. Seriously, though, Harry has a keen business brain, and served on the business staff of the Junior Pic, as well as administered N.Y.A. business efficiently. A graduate of Latin School, he has the capacity for hard work, which that school seems to engender in all her graduates. He has worked for the State for two summers, and is very much interested in govern- ment work. His studies in economics and accounting should be of assistance in this field of endeavor. LEO W. ROACHE, A.B. 276 Hanover Street, Boston, Mass. Ricci Mathematics Academy 1, 2; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Coming from Boston College High School where he was an honor student, Leo has continued his fine work at the Heights. Although he showed great skill in mathematics in high school and during his first two years at the Heights, he selected English as his field of concentration, and hopes to enter the teaching profession after graduation. Keenly interested in athletics, Leo has a special leaning toward football and swimming. His fa- vorite hobby is collecting old coins. He has always been popular during his college years because he is always affable and pleasant. Leo ' s energy in work has stamped him as a capable, reliable student. Whether he enters the teaching profession, or some other field, these qualities will avail him no little. FREDERICK T. ROBERTIE, A.B. 10 Bigelow Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 4, Publicity Manager; Law and Government Academy 4; Heights 2, 3, 4, Circulation 4; Greek Academy 1; Track 1; Junior Pic; Sub Turri, Publicity Manager 4. Dynamic Fred may be described as a bundle of boundless, effervescent energy that expresses itself in a bustle of activity to do a thousand and one jobs. He has a happy faculty of making friends readily, and of becoming intimately acquainted with whomever he meets. At the Heights, he majored in business, and his general ability in that field is shown by the fact that he served as Publicity Manager for the Dramatic Society, Circula- tion Manager for the Heights, and Publicity Manager for the Sub Turri. Fred is interested as a participant in all sports, but favors yachting on the side. His greatest asset is his ardor in carrying out his work and his uncanny ability at solving difficulties. • wf ALLAN E. ROCHE, A.B. 20 Wright Street, Woburn, Mass. Sodality 3: Writer ' s Club 2; Von Pastor History Academy 1; French Academy 1. Allan hails from the city of political turmoil and dissention, and enjoys the distinction of being one of the biggest men in the city. Most of the seniors have to look up to Allan, because of his height, of course. As a swimmer, boxer and hockey player he can compete with the best of them. For three sum.mers he has been the idol of many a maiden at Horn Pond, Woburn, where he served as a Red Cross Life Guard. As captain of Woburn High Hockey Team, he was the nemesis of numerous ambitious op- ponents. To photography, a subject in which he is keenly in- terested, he devoted many interesting spare hours. His quiet, unassuming, and gentlemanly manner all contribute much to his popularity. PATRICK J. ROCHE, A.B. 27 Harold Street, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Writer ' s Club 4. Rather than lose himself in the mazes of reasoning in Psychol- ogy, Joe would lose himself in ecstasy over two or three poems or articles in the magazine America. At least that seems to be the reason for his reading that magazine in class. A happy-go- lucky fellow, he likes to relate the enjoyable experiences of that trip to the Cotton Bowl. He is both a writer and a speaker, having represented his high school in a state-wide oratorical contest; while here at the college he joined both the Debating Society and the Writer ' s Club, and both organizations benefited by his competence in these lines. He has a pleasant smile for every- body, and a kind and cheerful word for all. lll- Wf JOSEPH S. ROGAN, B.S. (EDUCATION) 47 Sherman Street, Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Dramatic Society 3, 4; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, 4; B. C. Flying Club 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4: Track 2, 3; C. A. A. 4. The irrepressible Sherman came to us from Roxbury Memorial, and has since gained a reputation for himself as a speaker and debater. He debated for four years in the Marquette and Fulton, and probably kept the meetings in a continual uproar. In his capacity as a Sodality lecturer, he has spoken to a great many people, and once dared to challenge the illustrious Earl Browder in an open forum. Sherman has also given much of his time to the Dramatic Society and Law and Government Academy, but, of late has devoted more attention to his training course under the Civil Aeronautics Authority. Sherman intends to go to law school, probably the Georgetown Law School, which will pro- vide a fertile field for the expansive Rogan talents. LEON E. ROY, A.B. 214 Pearl Street, Newton, Mass. Sodality 3, Pres. 3, French Academy, Vice- Sociology Academy 4. Although Leon now lives in Newton, his preliminary education has been received in Canada, where he attended high school and spent one year at St. Hyacinth ' s College. From this back- ground, we naturally infer that he is well acquainted with the French language. Such is the case, for he spends much of his time in teaching French to a class of pupils; while at the college here, he has been Vice-president of the French Academy for two years. While at St. Hyacinth ' s, Leon played on the varsity bas- ketball squad, but now confines his interest in sports to watching football games. As a former J.E.C. councilor, he has had prac- tical experience in some of the phases of his major subject. So- ciology. GERALD F. RUSSELL, B.S. (HISTORY) Georgiaville, Rhode Island Class Council 2; Gold Key 3; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 4; French Academy 1, 2; Track 1, 2, 3, 4. This quiet fellow came from La Salle Academy in Rhode Island, and, starting off with a national reputation as a prep-school run- ner, he soon became a star in the one thousand yard event at Boston College, with many victories to his credit. A member of the Green Harbor coterie, he has been prominent in all their activities, even to becoming a member of the firm of Russell and Groden, icemen deluxe. Jerry, a specialist in history and chair- man of the very successful Boston College-Holy Cross dance, is one of the most likeable fellows at school. His disarming grin and warm friendliness will take him a long way, and are sure to make for him many new friends, as well as to strengthen old friendships. -- 5! JAMES T. RUSSELL, A.B. (HONORS) 9 Shirley Street, Roxbury, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Fulton 3; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1. After graduating from B. C. High, Jim followed his brilliant brother to the Heights. He majored in History and specializes in the history of any and all Russells who ever attained any fame. While Jim spends much of his time earning the mazuma for his college education, he never passes up an opportunity to play bridge, or any of the other popular card games. Jim ranks swim- ming as his favorite sport among the many in which he is in- terested. Jim has supported Sodality undertakings for four years, and has also given the Fulton a year of his effort. As a historian, Jim safeguards the historical accuracy of all arguments used in the lunchroom bull-sessions. Jim is ambitious to become a mem- ber of the American Foreign Diplomatic Service. 1 ' Y GEORGE P. RYAN, B.S. (HISTORY) 52 Cummings Road, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2. At all times smartly attired, George entered our lives four years ago when he was selected all scholastic centre at English High. On his arrival here, he starred at centre on our undefeated and untied freshman eleven, and then continued his excellent work with our glorious Eagles for three more years. With the majority of his time devoted to football, little was left for other things, al- though he managed to join the French Academy, and took such active participation in all our social affairs that he was elected to the Sophomore Prom and Junior Week committees. While here he took up the study of history with great zeal, and after gradua- tion he intends to continue with it till he receives his M.A. degree. JAMES J. RYAN, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 39 Mapleton Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Ricci Math. Academy 2; German Academy 1. 2; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4. Genial, robust, hardworking and earnest are the adjectives which seem to sum up the character of big Jim Ryan. He is the type of fellow who has little to say among strangers, but who is quite talkative among friends. With his companion chemists, Jerry Twomey and John Blackwood, he devotes much time to the activities of the Chemist ' s Club. He has also been a faithful mem- ber of the sodality. Although he is a member of that group of fel- lows who work their way through college, he finds time to study and maintain a good average. Even the Psych and Ethics quizzes hold no terrors for Jim, and he is as cool as the proverbial cu- cumber in answering the quiz-masters. JOHN F. RYAN, Jr., A.B. 33 Bennington Street, Newton, Mass. Heights 1, 2 , Associate Editor 3, Man- aging Editor 4: Photographic Editor, Junior Pic 3; Track 2; Member of Marine Reserve. Journalism and study were dominating interests in John ' s career at Boston College. As a member of the staff of the Heights during his entire four years at University Heights, John rose from a freshman reporter through the ranks of associate editor and news editor to the post of managing editor in his senior year. Skilled photographer as well as writer, John also served as staff photographer at times, and followed this, his hobby, to a fuller extent as photographic editor of the Junior Pic. He was a loyal spectator at most Boston College sporting events, and frequently appeared as an active participant in track. John prepared at Newton High, majored in Economics and Accounting, and plans to continue in the study of the law. JOHN F. RYAN, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 65 Round Hill Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Hailing from Hyde Square in Jamaica Plain, this quiet Senior hardly ever projects himself upon his classmates, except to com- plain of the transportation to Boston College. For four years his daily problem has been concerned with the lack of transporta- tion to B. C, and the necessity of being present for at least some first periods. Of course, John does not have this trouble with his electives, the social sciences, for classes in those subjects are held rather late in the afternoon. The Sociology Academy and the Sodality took up most of the time John devoted to outside activities, although he is quite a baseball and basketball player, as his high school record shows. John expects to attend the Bos- ton College School of Social Work after his graduation. JOHN J. RYAN, B.S. (BIOLOGY) 66 Church Street, Waltham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: German Academy 1, 2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Rifle 1. Displaying the noticeable courage and determination required to complete the B.S. in Biology course, John survived the elimina- tion procedure of his rigorous science course. Along with a limited number of his colleagues, John managed to withstand the pitfalls and hazards of his difficult biological studies and now is ready to accept his well-deserved diploma. John ' s thesis work was of great concern to his fellow students; he could be observed any afternoon cavorting around the Biology lab with the hope of successfully completing his research on the clam ' s heart. A steady worker, a known plugger, and sincere student, John will bid fond adieu to the science laboratories in which he has conducted his experiments for the past four years. JAMES R. RYDER, Jr., A.B. 185 North Central Avenue, Wollaston, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Glee Club 1, 2; Or- chestra 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Riile Club 1; Sociology Academy 4. A talented musician and a versatile gentleman is Jim from St. John ' s Prep. He majored in Sociology at the Heights, and intends to enter the B. C. School of Social Work. He was also a member of the Sociology Academy. Undoubtedly, his greatest proficiency is in the field of music, for he has been for four years a member of the orchestra and band, and for two, a member of the Glee Club. In his senior year, he was president of the Music Clubs. For three years, he was outstanding at Quantico in the Marine Corps Re- serve training school, and in June, he will receive the commis- sion of second lieutenant. Add to this a keen interest in sports, and you have a picture of the busy Jim Ryder. f% m m B S RICHARD F. ST. ONGE, B.S. (EDUCATION) 56 Lewis Road, Belmont, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Stylus 1; Economics Academy 4; Von Pastor Academy 1, 2, 3; Ed. Seminar 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Chemist ' s Club 3; Track 1; Golf 1, 2. Dick is a fellow who gets a lot out of life and especially out of college life. In general, he was a man-about-town, but never so much so that he did not have plenty of time for the many activ- ities around the campus. Throughout his college career, he was actively engaged in the Economics Academy, Von Pastor History Academy, Chemist ' s Club and Golf Team. Dick was also a mem- ber of the Junior Week Committee and a writer for the Stylus. A graduate of Belmont High school, where he shone as a track and hockey star, he came to Boston College and majored in educa- tion. He has been a close follower of the sports events as well as the social events of the college. — .„.. - '  GORDON F. SANTACROSS, A.B. 627 Pleasant Street, East Milton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2; Dramatic Society 4; Boxing 2, 3; Italian Academy 4; Latin Academy 1; Track 1, 2; Rifle 1; Editor, Eagle ' s Talon 3. Senator O ' Mahoney ' s monopoly investigating committee lacks just one character to make it the most mysterious inquisition of history. Tommy the Cork forgot Gordon Santacross. Gordon comes and goes and all you know is that he has been there. But he has the stuff; all the answers. It ' s right there in his vest pocket. He ' ll pat the pocket bulge for confirmation, but direct interroga- tion garners you only an evasive rumble of Yes, and again, no; but don ' t quote me. Up from B. C. High, Gordie was voted into the Latin Academy, was in track for two years, the Sodality for two more, and one year each in the Italian Academy and the Dramatic Society. Gordon is in the stands for every football game and is one of the most ardent rooters for the hockey team. JOSEPH B. SAVAGE, A.B. 92 Greaton Road, West Roxbury, Mass. Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Economics Academy 3; Sociology Acad- emy 4; Greek Academy 1,2; Marquette 1. Joe is a popular resident of West Roxbury who came to the Heights by way of Boston College High. Majoring in govern- ment, he hopes to attend law school. Joe ' s selection of this field might be explained by his keen interest in politics and govern- mental theory. Among sports and hobbies, he enjoys swimming, horse-racing, tennis and boxing. Joe has been employed by va- rious concerns during his college days, yet he has found time to participate in the affairs of the Law and Government Academy, as well as the Economics and Sociology Academies. In his first two years, he belonged to the Greek Academy and the Mar- quette. Joe ' s industrious nature is sure to be of help to him in the hard grind of law school. GEORGE J. SAWICKI, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 60 Halworthy Street, Cambridge, Mass. Baseball 1, 2; Hockey 1, 2, 3; Sodality 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4. George is the automobile salesman of the senior class. His knowledge of the relative merits and value of all the automobiles on the market, is appreciated by all the undergraduates at the Heights. Any student desiring to purchase a four-wheeled ve- hicle always consults George first and hears his opinion on the particular car he has in mind. George is an able athlete and is particularly interested in baseball, which he is always eager to discuss. He has been an active member of the hockey team for three years as one of its dependable defensemen. George enjoys the many discussions which take place both in the class and in meetings of the Sociology Academy. George is planning to con- tinue on in law school, and then enter the business world. ■7 GEORGE H. SAWTELL, A.B. 361 Mt. Auburn Street, Watertown, Mass. Class Council 2, 3; Gold Key 3; Sodality 1, 2. 3, 4; Law and Government Acad- emy 4; Heights 1, 2; Rifle 1. A very popular student throughout his entire college career, George was frequently rewarded by his classmates with elec- tion as their representative in the class councils. In both sopho- more and junior years, when his unselfishness prevented him from running, he helped in unofficial capacity to better the standing and activities of the class in no small way. George ' s activities also included membership in the Gold Key, the So- dality and Dr. Doyle ' s Law and Government Academy. He also served on the Heights staff during his under-class days, and at all times attended the athletic games of the college teams with commendable loyalty. He prepared at Boston College High School, and plans to embark on a career of salesmanship. HENRY E. SCHMIDT, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 1001 Centre Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 2, 3; Von Pastor History Academy 1; Golf 1; Chemist ' s Club 3; Sociology Academy 4; Social Science Seminar 2. Medium height, blond hair, ready smile and winning personality about describes this lad, who has always been popular with his classmates. Henry is a proficient skier and delights in making week-end trips to the White Mts. during the winter to enjoy his favorite sport. He is also slightly touched with the jitter-bug craze and has a hobby of collecting swing records. Henry hails from Jamaica Plain High, and in his junior year chose Sociology as his major. As a member of the Junior Week Committee he helped to make that occasion the great success that it was. Active in many of the college academies and enthusiastic in all he does, his future is secure as long as he keeps the spirit he has shown in his four years with us. ALBERT G. SCHNEIDERHAN, A.B. (HONORS) 5 North Central Avenue, Quincy, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Acadmey 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1. Al is not burdened with an overdose of seriousness, but he does well in his studies and in other activities. The scholarly accom- plishment over which he gloats most frequently is the perfect mark he obtained in trigonometry during his final year at B. C. High. However, he has not yet been able to hang up a perfect mark in distributing the Queen ' s Work to his fellow classmates, for they are not so susceptible to his persuasive powers as the Boy Scouts he directs. He is fond of all sports, particularly base- ball, basketball and golf. When he finishes his senior year, Al plans to pursue a government career. To this end, he has ma- jored in Political Science, and hearkened to the words of wisdom uttered at meetings of the Law and Government Academy. ERNEST W. SCHWOTZER, B.S. (EDUCATION) 107 Pine Street, Waltham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Football 1, 2, 3, Captain 4. If Ernie Schwotzer had done nothing more than play football at Boston College, he would long be remembered by his class- mates. As a guard on the Class of 1940 freshman team of 1936, he first showed the calibre which carried him to three years of varsity fame under Coaches Gil Dobie and Frank Leahy. In senior, he was football captain, the leader of Boston College ' s first bowl team. But his achievements did not end on the grid- iron, and his club activities include the Sodality and the French Academy, as well as membership on several dance committees. A lover of all major American sports, Ernie has majored in Education, and plans one day to be a teacher-coach. MARTIN J. SHANNON, A.B. 63 Allston Street, Lawrence, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Marquette 1, 2; Economics Academy 2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4. Martin Shannon is one of our long-distance commuters from Law- rence. He was graduated from Lawrence High School and is a student in the Pre-Med. course, from which we may safely as- sume that he intends to enter the medical profession. In athletics, his penchant is toward football and track. Active in extra-cur- ricular affairs, he has attained membership in the Cross and Crown after four years in the Sodality and two in debating. He joined the Chemist ' s Club in his junior year, and also attended the Pre-Med. Seminar. To satisfy his interest in economics, Martin also joined the Economics Academy. This wide diversity of activ- ity makes him a well-rounded, well-informed young man, and a genial friend. TIMOTHY J. SHANNON, A.B. (HONORS) 4 Bradford Avenue, Medford, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4, Treas. 2; Dramatic So- ciety 1; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, 4. Joe is a graduate of St. Clement ' s High in Medford, where he was outstanding as a debater. At the Heights, he has continued his work in this field, having been for four years affiliated with the Marquette and Fulton Debating Societies. Joe specialized in English at college, and he is considered an expert on classical literature, which he reads voraciously. A four-year member of the Sodality, Joe served as treasurer during his second year, and later was very active in committee work. He is a fine student in the Honors course, and an eager follower of baseball, swim- ming, and tennis. Possessed of an engaging sense of humor, he is extremely popular with his fellow-classmates. JOHN F. SHEA, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 18 Brinsley Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Sociology Academy 4. Jock is a personable young man from Dorchester who has set up a very good scholastic record at Boston College. He hopes eventually to obtain a position in the department of ballistics of some Police Department. His experiences range from service as a first class sailor under Uncle Sam to being a dairy man during the summer vacation months. Jock came to Boston College from St. Anselm ' s College, and was immediately accepted by his classmates at the Heights as a regular fellow. During his spare time, Jock is either repairing the spark plugs in his four wheeled runabout or arguing with the policeman on the beat in his neigh- borhood. Next year Jock is planning to study criminology at M. I. T., and we wish him the best of luck and hope his success may come quickly. JOSEPH L. SHEA, A.B. 122 Webster Street, Arlington, Mass. Sodality 1, 2. 3, 4, Sec. 2; Heights 1; Hockey 1; Marquette 1, 2; Fulton 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4. Popularity is so often confused with notoriety that one feels re- luctant about using the term except concerning persons for whom its meaning is incontravertible. Joe Shea is just such a person. His popularity springs from a complexus of quality in- cluding a hearty humor, friendliness, and a concern, real and personal, for the welfare of all whom he meets. Joe has demon- strated his ability and interest in speaking during four years of membership in the college debating societies. Joe has studied Accounting for a life in business, but it is in the business of life that his greatest success will lie; and few men have set out for it better equipped in knowledge and in nature, in tone and in temperament. WILLIAM J. SHEA, B.S. (SOCIAL SCIENCE) 10 Colonial Road, Waterbury, Connecticut Sodality 1, 2, 3; Glee Club 1: Spanish Academy 1, 2: Social Science Academy 1, Vice-Pres. 2; Sociology Academy 4. Bill is no exception to our Connecticut group here at the college for he has that even temperament, ready smile and pleasing personality that characterize our few other representatives from that state. He has always been rather quiet and unassuming and you would never hear of his accomplishments were you waiting for him to tell you of them. He has taken a special interest in So- ciology, his major subject and one in which he has been most proficient. His numerous friends wish him success in this field and hope to see him back here next year doing graduate work in this line. On any warm spring day you will find Bill on the courts enjoying a bit of relaxation in a fast set of tennis. JOHN J. SHEEHAN, A.B. 84 Thoreau Street, Concord, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2; Greek Acad- emy 2; Latin Academy 1. John is our capable representative from the historical town of Concord, and is also a graduate of St. Philip ' s Preparatory School. He has become well known for his good-natured manner and pleasant smile. Of his many friends, his closest seems to be Gerry Gallagher, who is seen with him on nearly all occasions. He has taken an active part in the Economics Academy during his junior and senior years, and has also been a member of several other associations. He has majored in the field of Eco- nomics, in which subject he has compiled an excellent set of notes which are the envy of his classmates. However, he has chosen law for a profession, and has decided to enter Boston College Law School. CHARLES I. SHEEHY, A.B. 102 Edgemont Road, Braintree, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Heights 4; Greek Academ y 1. Charlie Sheehy is a B. C. High graduate and a student of history. A member of the Greek Academy in freshman, it is strange to find him quoting, not Homer, but home-run averages. Since he is a baseball fan of the first order, to talk sports with him is to be deluged with data concerning heroes of the diamond from the year one to the present. The common consent of mankind has given him the position of President of the B. C. Bill Werber Boos- ters, Inc. In the junior year, he joined the sodality, becoming a member of the Publicity and Eucharistic Committees. During the past year, the Heights enrolled him among its reporters. Charlie is also an authority on American History, this being the only sub- ject on which he and Ed Barrett agree. RUSSELL R. SHEERIN, A.B. 31 Mellin Str eet, Dorchester, Mass. Dramatic Society 2, 3, Business Sec, Cos- tume Manager; Greek Academy 1; Ger- man Academy 1; Track 1, 2. Speaking of humorists, we of ' 40 are a richly endowed class. Speaking of Russ, — well, Russ usually speaks for himself, wittily and well. Woe to the man who engages in repartee with him! To claim a victory is to strain credulity. Russ, who is ma- joring in Business, was another unseen power in the Dramatic Society until his latent talent was discovered, and then he bloomed as the husky heroine of the Stage Hands ' melodrama. Moreover, he is broadminded, believing Regis to be just as en- joyable a place as B. C. He must possess a magic mechanical touch, for his memorable Coffee Pot, the Chevrolet with a heart, still bubbles along on its affectionate way seemingly gifted with perpetual youth. We like to feel that Russ also will remain unchanged. kk J!I p? ALBERT J. SINOFSKY, B.S. (HISTORY) 9 Ottowa Street, Roxbury, Mass.

Al, as he is known to all his classmates, is well liked by the stu- dents of Boston College. He is a graduate of Roxbury Memorial High School where he set up a fine record as an athlete and scholar. A fine student for four years, and a clever athlete, Al has also been a member of the Law and Government Academy, the Sociology Academy, and in his Junior year, the Boston Col- lege Boxing team. His favorite hobby is stamp collecting and he devotes much of his spare time to this interest. Al intends to ob- tain his master ' s degree in the field of Social Service, and we wish him the best of luck towards his future success in his chosen profession. FRANCIS A. SMITH, A.B. (HONORS) 7 Ford Street, Dedham, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Writer ' s Club 1, 2, Sec. 2; Stylus 4; Economics Academy 3, 4. Frank followed his brother to the Heights from Dedham High. He has engaged in a few outside activities, but has concentrated chiefly on studies. He reads widely in many fields, and as a result, when he is present the atmosphere reeks with a com- pound of intellectuality, and puny punnery. Yet, his genial grin will blind you to the atrocity of his puns. Not only has Smitty majored in Economics, but his favorite pastime is discussion of current affairs in the light of economics. His future career will probably be in some field closely connected with economics, and his lively interest in a subject which many consider barren and uninteresting, will be a great asset to him later on. FRANCIS X. SMITH, A.B. 37 Munroe Street, Somerville, Mass. Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Writer ' s Club 3, 4; Stylus 3, 4; Rifle Club 1. A lover of the Fine Arts and the great outdoors, Smitty seems to have thoroughly enjoyed his four years at B. C. To hear Smitty give his interpretation of some great piece of art is a delightful and educational experience. His many friends have been watching his fine collection of reproductions grow through the four years so that now they fill several books. But Smitty does not confine his tastes merely to the aesthetic pursuits of sculpture, music, and writing criticisms and discussions for the Stylus, since he is also fond of athletics. He spends his sum- mers in New Hampshire where he passes the time hiking, swim- ming, and horse-back riding. If Frank were to become a well known poet or nature-lover, it would surprise us not at all. THOMAS W. SMITHERS, A.B. 18 Farragut Avenue, Medford, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Sociology Academy 3, 4; Greek Academy 1; German Academy 1. 2; Chemist ' s Club 2. Although Tom Smithers is rather small in stature, his personality and ability are in no way commensurate with his size. His sharp features, brisk step and quick tongue are indicative of his am- bitious nature. As a spectator and participant he has a liking for practically all sports, and represented B.C. High by carrying her colors as a member of the varsity football squad. Because of his facility in speaking German and his success i n passing the Ger- man reading examination, he has been the envy of many a struggling German student. Tom is a fine student, and with char- acteristic diligence and hard work, he has maintained a good scholastic average. In sociology, his major, he has displayed a keen interest, and jokingly refers to himself as Dr. Fitzgibbon ' s Washington correspondent. lll- tf GEORGE F. SULLIVAN, B.S. (EDUCATION) 15 GreycliH Road, Brighton, Mass. Track 1; Baseball 1; Ass ' t Manager Foot- ball 1, 2, 3, Head Manager 4; Dramatic Society 3. George will always live in our memories and in the traditions of Boston College as the manager of the first football team from the Heights ever to play in a post-season game. On the Cotton Bowl trip, he showed the true calibre of his ability to manage things, when he helped, in no small way, to conduct the long round-trip journey from Boston to Dallas with a minimum of difficulty. His popularity with players, coaches, and students is a tribute to the skill with which he carried out his duties as manager. As a fresh- man and sophomore, he was a member of the track team, but the duties of football manager prevented his continuing as a disciple of Jack Ryder. HERBERT J. SULLIVAN, B.S. (PHYSICS) 15 Sargent Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Class Council 1; Ger- man Academy 1, 2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Rifle Team 1, 2, Manager 3. Here is another Sullivan from Dorchester. Herby has been ac- cepted for fall delivery at Tufts Medical School, and incidentally he was the first to be chosen from this year ' s class. Herby ' s lab- oratory technique was exceptionally good, so don ' t be surprised to find him listed as an excellent surgeon in a few years. When asked what he considered to be his outstanding achievement in high school, he dryly answered: I graduated. Trained to handle a rifle in the National Guard, Herb easily became a pro- ficient member of the Rifle Team here at B. C, and managed the team in 1939. We hope that Herby ' s researches in the study of life give him the correct answer to that age-old question which has been bothering him. JAMES E. SULLIVAN, A.B. 21 Alpha Road, Dorchester, Mass. Class Council 1; Sodality 4; Glee Club 4; Marquette 2; Greek Academy 1. Jim is one of the many seniors from Dorchester who were gradu- ated from Boston College High. At the Heights, he majored in Sociology, and intends to enter the B. C. School of Social Work. Prominent in public speaking in high school, Jim was a member of the Marquette. The winter is eagerly awaited by Jim, who is a keen skiing and skating enthusiast. He is also interested in youth activities, and is a director of a boy ' s club. During his freshman year, he was a member of the Greek Academy, and in his senior year, he was affiliated with the Glee Club. A good student, gifted with a personable manner, Jim has always been popular having served on the Class Council during his first year at the Heights. JEREMIAH X. SULLIVAN, A.B. (HONORS) 25 Sunnyside Street, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 2; Marquette 1, 2; German Academy 2. A fine student, a talented vocalist, and a pleasant personality — Jerry Sullivan is all these. A graduate of Boston College High, he is majoring in English, with the intention of entering the teach- ing profession. Jerry is a lover of practically all sports, and en- joys taking part in many of them. But his greatest talent is his fine lyric tenor. With such a gift, it is only natural that Jerry should enjoy singing popular songs and listening to dance bands. During his high school days, his scholarship was twice rewarded by prizes, and his class work is still of the same high grade at B. C. With his infectious laugh and his willingness to listen to even the most horrible of puns, he is a thoroughly en- joyable companion. JOHN J. SULLIVAN, Jr., A.B. 18 Central Street, Somerville, Mass. Sodality 3, 4; Track 1, 2, 3. John has done his part in trying to give us a SulHvan from every town in the vicinity of Boston. He is a product of Somerville High School, who came to the Heights in time to become a member of the great class of 1940. Always a fun-loving character. Jack com- peted in the frequent intramural games held during the first two years. Both on the field and verbally he upheld the superiority of his section. Possessed of rather a keen interest in all sports, Jack has competed in track for three years here at the college. Jack has majored in accounting, and intends to pursue his fu- ture in that field. He will probably attend some business school as a means to this end. lOHN S. B. SULLIVAN, Jr., B.S. (HISTORY) ' 13 Edgemoor Road, Belmont, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Law and Government Academy 4; Von Pastor History Academy 1, 2, 3, 4: Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4. Lefty is one of the more silent members of our class. Coming to us from Belmont High, where he pitched that school to the State Championship in 1935, John has been a member of the baseball squad for four years, and has made the best of them bite for his fast hook. Taking History for his major field of concentration, he has been an active member of the Von Pastor History Academy, and has broadened his activities to include the Law and Gov- ernment Academy. He has been prominent in Sodality affairs, and is a rival of Confucius when it comes to passing sage com- ment about affairs athletic and political. An ardent fan of all col- lege sports, he may often be seen looking over next year ' s foot- ball prospects or passing upon the merits of the tennis team. LEO F. SULLIVAN, A.B. 22 Alcott Street, Allston, Mass. Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Economics Academy 3, 4. Leo is another of the large number of Boston Latin graduates who entered B. C. in the Class of ' 40. However, he is so unas- suming that not many outside his circle of close friends, can ad- dress him by his first name, and still be sure they are not con- fusing him with one of the other Sullivans. The situation must have been even more complex, two years ago, when Leo ' s brother was a Senior at B. C. Of a very determined nature, Leo has been very successful in his studies, and, as an aid to a fuller understanding of his major subject, Economics, he joined the Economic and Law and Government Academies, in his last two years. We earnestly wish him the success he deserves in later life. MICHAEL W. SULLIVAN, A.B. Sachem Street, Pinehurst, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4: Marquette 1, 2; Pre- Med. Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4. Sully is our stylish representative and affable emissary from the rural retreat of Pinehurst, Mass. His tailored appearance and elegance of manner are evidenced even as he works in the odor- iferous confines of the laboratories. A well-rounded vocabulary supplemented by a smooth and cultured diction serves as an ex- cellent foundation for his conservative but congenial nature. An exception to the general rule, Sully, although a ranking Pre- Medical student, found time from the rigorous routine of his course to be an active participant in the functions of the Mar- quette and the Sodality. His hobby and recreation is tinkering with his Ford of ancient vintage; as yet he has not ventured to make the long trek from the pine country to the Heights via his alleged automobile. WALTER J. SULLIVAN, A.B. 459A Medford Street, Somerville, Mass. League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2. Walter is a resident of Somerville, and was a graduate from Bos- ton College High School. Coming to the Heights, he was imme- diately faced with the difficulty of having other people confuse him with some one of the eight other Sullivans in the Class of ' 40. After establishing his individuality, he proceeded to major in English, and became a keen student of English Literature. His interest in sports is not limited; it extends to any or all sports that are worth playing or watching. Walter is popular among his fellow seniors because of his quiet and friendly attitude, which is as evident in the classroom as in all other places. His plans for the future are not certain as yet, but Walter has a good founda- tion on which to build. JAMES D. SUPPLE, A.B. 9 Olney Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1; Football Manager 1, 2; Gold Key 3. Speaking very strictly, tap-dancing feet are not supple, they are better called nimble. Nevertheless, people are constantly trying to make a very bad pun out of Jim ' s surname and his talented pedal extremities. Indeed without throwing any bouquets — he loathes flowers — it is only fair to publish the fact that all admit he has a gift which the rest of us can ' t match. Jim has a serious, indeed intellectual side, which he will exhibit on request. As an English student, he is a fluent source of information on con- temporary literature, poetry, and drama, and is a frequent theatre-goer. But, as one of the rotunda dilettanti remarked re- cently, Jim will never have to worry about earning his living with his hands; he can always fall back on his feet. Ill ' Wf THOMAS V. SWEENEY, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 24 Richmond Street, Weymouth, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Ricci Math Academy 2; German Academy 1, 2; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4. Tom came to Boston College from Weymouth High School, and although of rather a retiring nature, quickly became popular among his classmates in the chemistry course. Sufficiently quiet to be a gentleman, but not too quiet to lack personality, Vincent ranks with the best of them in his lab work. He has been an active member of the Chemist ' s Club for the past three years, and attends all the meetings and functions of the club. He is especially interested in photography section of the club. During his whole college career, Tom has been a faithful attendant at Sodality meetings, and also joined the German Academy to pick up that knowledge of the German language which is necessary for an understanding of outstanding works on chemistry. WILLIAM I. SWEENEY, A.B. 26 Clinton Street, Woburn, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy 2; Pre-Med Seminar 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4; Hockey 1, 4; Baseball 1, 4. Another of that select group of Pre-med students, Bill came to Boston College from Woburn High School, where for two years he was an active member of the varsity squad in both football and baseball. Due to the rigid pre-med curriculum at the Heights, Bill found little time to compete in athletics; he was however a member of the baseball and hockey squads during his freshman and senior years. Feeling the magnetic attraction of the theatre, he forsook his books — only temporarily — and took a part in the Junior Week Play. A serious and intent student. Bill has attracted the attention of all because of his quiet disposition; so much so that his fellow classmates consider him to be the most reticent fellow in the class. Hi ' Y EDWARD C. SWENSON, B.S. (EDUCATION) 198 Holyoke Street, Lynn, Mass. Track 1, 2, 3, 4; Football 1, 2, 3. 4. Throughout his whole scholastic career Ed has been an out- standing athlete. He began winning shotput titles way back in his high school days at Lynn Classical, and gained national recognition while at La Salle Military Academy, when he be- came National Junior Shotput Champion. At Boston College, he continued his good work in the shotput, and, at the same time, played football on the varsity team for three years. In 1939, he took a second in the shotput at the I.C.4A games, and was New England college champion. Ed is a popular fellow among the other students in the Education course, and a worthy representa- tive of Boston College in the national athletic meets in which he participates. JOHN E. SWIFT, A.B. 7 Parker Hill Avenue, Milford, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Heights 1, 2; Crew 4; Economics Academy 3, 4; Riding Club 2, 3, 4. This methodic fellow who came from Milford four years ago, is endowed with good humor and shrewd judgment. John enrolled at Boston College forty years after his well-known parent, Judge Swift, and is a true chip off the old block. John is always the one to render the level-headed decisions concerning his trips to Wes- ton as well as concerning matters brought up in class. Fre- quently, his low, booming voice is heard in the philosophy classes competing with the pearls of wisdom of the professors. Swiftie, majoring in economics, has proved an embryonic match for Dr. Hjalmar Schacht. Shining in extra-curricular activities as well, John is one of our foremost skiers. Also an expert horseman, he has been the Master of the Fox and Hounds Club. RICHARD D. TEEHAN, A.B. 132 Westchester Road, Jamaica Plain, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Law and Government Academy 3, 4; Greek Academy 1; So- ciology Academy 4. One of our few devotees of the ancient game of soccer, Dick is one of our many graduates of Boston College High School. After devoting the first two years of his college career to the mastery of classical subjects, Dick then turned to Sociology and ma- jored in that subject. The first phase of his college career is represented by membership in the Greek Academy, the second phase by membership in the Sociology and Law and Govern- ment Academies. Besides the afore-mentioned soccer, Dick en- thuses over many other sports, including boxing and hockey. After graduation, Dick plans to enter law-school. His earnestness and willingness to work hard should insure success in his legal studies, and in the profession later on. EZIO N. TESONE, B.S. (BIOLOGY) 53 Morris Street, Everett, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Italian Academy 1, 2; German Academy 1, 2; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Track 1. Ezio came to Boston College from Somerville High School, but also received part of his education in Italy, whence he came to our country twelve years ago. After being referred to as Rudolph Valentino by Fr. Maxwell, Ezio decided to try to live up to that famous name and appeared in the dramatic productions of the Italian Academy. Besides his work in the Italian Academy, Ezio was a member of the Sodality and German Academy. But his chief interest seems to be in scientific fields, for he is taking the B. S. course in Biology, while the study of chemistry occupies his spare time. With these studies as preparation, Ezio should find no trouble in gaining entrance to medical school next fall. RAYMOND J. THOMAS, Jr., A.B. 108 Broadway Street, Lowell, Mass. Sodality 4; Glee Club 1; Orchestra 1; Sociology Academy 4. An interest in the study of sociology may lead Ray to a career in life just as it has characterized his four-year stay at Boston Col- lege. He majored in Sociology as a subject and furthered his interest in the problems it considers as a loyal member of the Sociology Academy during his senior year at the Heights. He did not confine his activities to this, however. He also joined the Glee Club and college orchestra, showing his interest in the musical world, and following his favorite hobby while a col- legian. He is also interested in photography. Preparing at Lowell ' s famed Keith Academy, Ray came to Boston College as another of the many sons of Lowell, who have become loyal sons of Boston College as well. JAMES E. THOMPSON, A.B. 20 Tip Top Street, Brighton, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; German Academy I, 2. Jim, who realizes that personal appearance is of the utmost im- portance in business, has always paid particular attention to his dress. He gained much fame and prestige in his high school days at B. C. High and Boston English, where he was an honor stu- dent for three years. Although not an actual participant in sports here at the college, Jim is interested in all sports and more espe- cially football, baseball, and track. Good-natured and jolly, Jim possesses a sincere determination to see a thing through; all of which makes him the kind of man on whom his superiors can depend. Admirable qualities such as these are sure to win Jim the success he so richly deserves. CHARLES B. THORNTON, A.B. 35 Fanuil Street, Brighton, Mass. Philosophy Academy 3: French Academy 1, 2; Greek Academy 1, 2; Rifle Club 1, 2; Yacht Club 2, 3, 4. Charlie is best described as the black-haired gentleman with an infectious smile and a trick or joke up his sleeve. But there is no trick about Charlie ' s skill in yachting. He belonged to the yacht club, and won many a race by his skilful maneuvering and his thorough knowledge of sailing. Unconfined in his interests, he was sure to be found as a wild-eyed enthusiast at all sporting contests. Charlie ' s chief hobby is collecting pictures of the one and only. During his stay at the Heights, he majored in Soci- ology and he may continue to study this subject in Graduate school. While at B. C. he endeared himself to many by his care- free manner, and their best wishes for his success follow him wherever he may go. ROBERT F. TILLEY, A.B. 40 Greenville Street, Roxbury, Mass. Cross and Crown 4; Pie-Med. Seminar 4; Dramatic Society 1. 2, 3, 4; Associate Pro- ducer 4; Stage Manager 3; Radio Club 2; Play Shop 1, 2, 3; French Academy 1, 2; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4; Hockey, Ass ' t. Man- ager 2, 3, 4; Sub Turri 4; Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4. Bob is one of those unusual persons whose interests vary from medicine to dramatics. He ' s a Pre-Med man preparing for a fu- ture in surgery, and a student of dramatic technique with prac- tical experience gathered from four years of activity on the pro- duction staff of the Dramatic Society. In fact, as associate pro- ducer, Bob was in part responsible for the professionally effi- cient productions of the past season. Beyond the reach of the spotlight, Bob and his crew are always busy, unapplauded, but satisfied if the performance runs smoothly. We wish you luck at medical school, Bob, but take care that you ' re not kid- napped by some earnest little-theatre group. PAUL E. TONDORF, A.B. 48 Sawyer Avenue, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 1, 2, 3; Philosophy Academy 3; Heights 1, 2, 3, 4; Sub Turri 4; Sociology Academy 4; Greek Academy 1, 2, Sec ' y 1; Latin Acad- emy 1, 2; Track 1, 2, 3, Manager 4; Rifle Club 1, 2; Yacht Club 2, 3, 4. Paul, a graduate of Boston College High, is the popular manager of the track team, and competed himself in that sport for three years. At the college here, he majored in sociology and joined the Sociology Academy. Paul has also been an active member of the Greek and Latin Academies, while the Sodality and Heights have benefited from his energies for four years. To all these activities Paul has brought his fun-loving spirit and his capacity for making difficult tasks seem easy. Paul has certainly engaged in enough activities, but his greatest honor came when he was designated Grand Master of the Beagle Hunt Club. CHARLES F. TOOHEY, A.B. 1433 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; French Academy 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Latin Academy 1, 2. Charlie is another lad from Boston College High who proved to be a good student, and an entertaining friend. He majored in French, and was a member of the Band. For four years, no meet- ing of the French Academy was complete without his pleasing interpolations in patois. Besides, Charlie attended all of the col- lege events, both social and athletics. Indeed, those enjoyable week-ends at Green Harbor were due in no small part to his generous and sporting nature. In the field of athletics, Charlie was a shining light of the hockey team for three years. Charlie also gave generously of his services to the class as a member of the Junior Prom Committee, and the Senior Ring Committee. We wish Charlie every future success. EDWARD J. TWOMEY, A.B. 101 Whitin Avenue, Revere, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Radio Club 2; French Academy 1, 2; Fencing 3; Play-Shop 1, 2, 3, 4; Cross and Crown 4; Dramatic So- ciety 1, 2, 3; Production Manager 4. If for no other reason than that he is the possessor of the heaviest academic schedule of the senior class, Eddie Twomey is justly entitled to renown. Yet Ed ' s schedule of extra-curricular activ- ities is almost as top-heavy, for he is co-manager of production with Robert Tilley for the Dramatic Society, a member of the Cross and Crown, the French Academy, the Fencing Team and the Sodality. Ed ' s talents as a production manager were em- ployed continually by many organizations ranging from the Italian Academy to the Junior Class. The above list of activities gives some idea of the ability and versatility of one of the most active members of the senior class. In short, Eddie is the abridge- ment of all that is praiseworthy in a busy college student. JEREMIAH I. TWOMEY, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 5 Maine Terrace, Somerville, Mass. Radio Club 1, 2; Crystal 3, Editor 4; Chemist ' s Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Jerry, brother of Daniel Twomey of the class of ' 34, entered Bos- ton College from B. C. High School. Most of Jerry ' s time and en- ergy for the past four years has been devoted to chemistry, for that subject seems to be Jerry ' s first and only love. As a member of the chemistry division, Jerry supplied many inspirational and humorous moments — inspirational, because of his detailed and interesting knowledge of that science; humorous, because of his weak moments in the lab when Jerry could be relied upon for an explosion or fire. Jerry ' s interest and knowledge in chemistry, made him the logical choice for editorship of the Crystal, and under his capable guidance, that magazine enjoyed a most suc- cessful and fruitful year. CHARLES H. VAUGHN, Jr., A.B. 50 Walnut Street, Hudson, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Golf 1; Economics Academy 3; Law and Government Acad- emy 4; French Academy 1, 2; Latin Acad- emy 1, 2. With the group that entered from Boston College High four years ago, came a reticent fellow by the name of Charlie Vaughn. Since, Charlie has lost his reticence, and has become one of the better controversialists in the lunchroom discussions. Charlie ' s genial nature is appreciated here at Boston College, where he is very popular. Naturally, his sterling performance in the Heights- Stylus football game added to this popularity. Charlie is also a fine swimmer, and a devotee of all the arts. The latter charac- teristic qualified him for membership in the Beagle Hunt Club. At the same time, Charlie was a capable student, who spent much of his time in the Tower Reference Library, where the se- niors carry on most of their serious work.  ,« % JOSEPH T. VINBURG, Jr., A.B. 6 Almont Street, Medford, Mass. Band 3, 4; Yacht 2, 3, 4; Stylus 3, Editor 4. Here indeed is a young man whose qualities are rare as well as unique. He is known throughout the college as a musician whose exceptional talents on the piano are demonstrated both in popu- lar or classical music, as your choice may be. Yet his ability does not end here, for as an author he has gained fame and re- ward. Many magazines have printed his stories, and here his efforts have been acknowledged with the Editorship of the Stylus, literary journal of the college. Swimming occupies part of his leisure time, and in the summer he acts as life guard and Red Cross instructor. His love of the outdoor has influenced him in his plan to enter graduate school for a Master ' s degree in Forestry. JOHN I. WALSH, A.B. Highland Avenue, Cohasset, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Orchestra 1; Writer ' s Club 4: Greek Academy 1. Every morning you would see this personable, black haired fel- low walking along Hammond St. after leaving the train which brought him all the way from the South shore. Animated but also very serious, Johnny has ever been popular with his classmates. Of keen wit and sharp sense of humor, he spoke little but com- manded attention whenever he did. John is a graduate of Boston College High School, where he was an honor student. Coming to the Heights, he continued his scholastic climb, and ranked high in his class. He majored in English, and it seems to have suited his interest perfectly, since his choice for favorite activity was the Writer ' s Club, in which he has been active for the four years of his college career. CHARLES J. WARD, A.B. 14 Wyman Terrace, Arlington, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Band 1, 2, 3, 4; Ricci Math Academy 1; League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Black-haired Charlie is the fellow you ' ve seen so cleverly wield- ing the baton before the college band on the brisk Satuirdays in the fall. He had done this for the Arlington High Band, and nat- urally his talent was welcomed here at the H eights. He is an ardent admirer of jazz, and, in his lighter moments, may be found playing a solid piano. His appreciation of the relative merits of the various dance-bands was used in the selection of the prom bands in both Sophomore and Junior. For diversion, he likes to play cards in his well-known and expert manner. His election of Business caused Bud to take accounting in Junior and Senior. He intends to concentrate on this field in later life. JAMES R. WARD. A.B. 15 Arlington Street, Maiden, Mass. Dramatic Society 3; Fulton 4; Economics Academy 3; Track 4. For the past two years, a tall, well-built fellow with a slow gait, a careless and carefree demeanor and a serious expression tem- pered with a keen sense of humor has been with us here at B. C. Jim Ward, although a Maldenite, is a transfer student from St. Charles, Cotonsville, Md. and has made many friends during his short stay here at the Heights. Last fall on Saturday afternoons, allied with the other two members of the acrobatic team, Jim ex- cited our admiration as he performed his clever stunts between the halves. The Dramatic Society, the Fulton, and the Track Team have occupied much of his spare time as he busied himself with their various activities. In Jim Ward we find a man of talent and will power blended in a fine personality. JOSEPH I. WATERS, B.S. (CHEMISTRY) 1093 Walnut Street, Newton Highlands, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Glee Club 2, 3, 4; Radio Club 2; Chemist ' s Club 2, 3, 4; Rifle Club 1. Joe is one of the more reserved collegians at the Heights, though he has attained no little degree of fame for the utter disregard he has for the integrity of his suits. The reason for this reputation is that he has never been the proud possessor of a lab coat, — which is an essential in the chem labs. Although slender and ascetic looking, Joe displayed unexpected prowess in the Crystal-Heights game of the past year and showed himself to be as competent on the gridiron as he is in the lab. He is also one of those silver-toned baritones whom we hear harmonizing up in the Organic Chemistry Lab. Joe ' s only worry is trying to anti- cipate the next prank of his lab partner, Jerry Twomey. lll- Wf WALTER F. WEST, A.B. 900 Washington Street, Dorchester, Mass. Sodality 1, 2, 3, 4; Pre-Med. Seminar 4; Chemist Club 4; Track 1, If any question should arise concerning a B. C. athletic event occurring within the past twenty years, consult Walter West. Because of the intensity of his interest as a student of sporting events, his knowledge might well be said to do justice to any encyclopedia on the subject. As a former resident of South Bos- ton, his enthusiasm and pride in the achievements of the repre- sentatives of the old Peninsula district have never diminished. Walter came to the Heights via English High School and St. Philip ' s Preparatory School. Greatly interested in medical studies, he majored in biology and also joined the Chemist ' s Club in his last year. He is the third brother to graduate from B. C, and no doubt will add more lustre to the family name. HENRY J. WHITE, A.B. 2096 Dorchester Avenue, Dorchester, Mass. French Academy 1, 2: Law and Govern- ment Academy 3, 4; Sociology Academy 4. A quiet young man, but one who is counted as a friend by all who know him, Harry came to Boston College after graduating from B. C. High, where he was active in baseball circles. Still a great baseball fan, he takes a great interest in the doings of the Boston College nine. In his own right, he is a competent athlete, who often plays hockey, baseball and track. Harry chose So- ciology as his major, and hopes to continue in this field when he graduates. He has been a member of the Sodality for four years, and of the Law and Government Academy in his junior and se- nior years. His determination and enthusiasm should stand him in good stead in his future undertakings. RICHARD H. WRIGHT, A.B. 698 River Street, Mattapan, Mass. Class Council 1; Cross and Crown 4; So- dality 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1; Pre-Med. Semi- nar, Pres. 4; Chemist ' s Club 3, 4. Following in the footsteps of his illustrious brother, Dick has likewise made a name for himself here at the College. He en- tered Boston College after a three year vacation. In Junior year he changed to the Pre-Medical Course after taking special courses. Besides making this change to a more difficult course, he also attained the Dean ' s list. It seems that no task is too dif- ficult for him. He has exceptional abilities along scholastic lines and some day will become a good doctor. His winning smile and good natured manner have made many friends for him. He has been active in many Academies, specifically as President of the Pre-Medical Seminar and Secretary-Treasurer of the Chemist ' s Club. FRANCIS L. ZONA, B.S. (EDUCATION) 132 Orleans Street, East Boston, Mass. Writer ' s Club 2; Track 1; Education Seminar 4. At the end of the Hst in the alphabetical order of names, Frank ranks among the first in determination, and likeable disposition. Frank graduated from East Boston High where he competed in track. Despite studies and extra work at the college, Frank has found time to recreate himself in his favorite sport on the out- door track. He also makes a hobby of camping and has served as a camp councilor. Although Frank ' s interest in writing and literature led him to join the Writer ' s Club for one year, he has expended most of his energy on the subjects in his Education courses. Natural ability and acguired ambition tempered by modesty, are qualities which should be invaluable to Frank in later life. Jll-pii ' E:«: JlflMi 1940 John R. Anderson Edward J. Banks Joseph C.

Zaleski UdDfRriflSSdlf Jltinlov In the fall of ' 37, three hundred men marched up Chestnut Hill to formally begin their college career. Deeply im- pressed by the Gothic splendor and majestic appearance of the buildings, they began a journey the end of which seemed far distant at that time. That freshman year was, as most freshman years are, quite uneventful. The of- ficers chosen by the men were Frank Coady, Jack Beatty, and John MacGil- licudy. Our football team in keeping with the fashion of previous years went undefeated and augured well for the future. Scholastically the class did very well. Socially there was a successful banquet and promenade. At the beginning of sophomore year. JOSEPH MAGUIRE President the class witnessed the departure of the beloved Fr. Sullivan. The athletes con- tinued to make a favorable showing, while the scholastic standing of the class maintained its high level. The of- ficers chosen to represent the class of ' 41 for sophomore year were Jack Beatty and John MacGillicudy. So- cially, a successful banquet was en- gineered under the capable direction of John Maher. Moreover the prom- enade with Rudolph Friml, Jr. supply- ing the music sent everyone home well- pleased. Bob McGehearty directed this one. Junior year finds us facing the intro- duction of a new president and dean. This year also witnessed a gala and JOHN AMBROGNE Secretary mtstor WILLIAM HOULIHAN Vice-President golden era of football culminating in a well-earned trip to the Cotton Bowl at Dallas. The juniors contributed in no little measure to the team ' s remarkable success inasmuch as there were nine juniors on the starting eleven. The of- ficers chosen this year were Joe Ma- guire, Bill Houlihan, John Ambrogne, and George McManama. Shortly after the commencement of class the Dean published the list of Gold Key men, the Junior honor society. These aforemen- tioned men then proceeded to elect John Ambrogne, John Colahan, and B. Whitfield Robinson. Later in the year eight juniors were selected as members of Alpha Sigma Nu, the Jesuit national honor system. During the year the class ran a suc- cessful dance under the Towers and the Gold Key ran a Frolic which incidently netted the class a considerable sum of money. Whit Robinson was chairman of the latter function and deserves a lot of credit for the remarkable results he achieved. As we go to press, the Junior Prom is still forthcoming. However, Larry Funk has been selected to supply the music and Joe Vaughan promises an enjoy- able evening for all. Thus scholastically and socially the class has more than held its own. In addition it has supplied Boston College with one of its greatest, if not the greatest, football team in its history. Truly this class has upheld the prin- ciples of Boston College.

Fr. Joseph D. Fitz- gerald was the fine Dean who so suc- cessfully helped the embryo collegians over their first and highest hurdle. At the end of its first year the class was well on its way to scholastic and ath- letic fame. Came the Sophomore year and an administration destined to add laurels to the already imposing array collected by the class of 1942. John R. Heffernan was elected presi- dent of the Sophomore Class and he was aided in his administrative duties by Vice-President James O ' Neill; Sec- retary Joseph R. Hegarty; Treasurer Thomas J. Flanagan; and A. A. Repre- sentative Paul Maguire. A Hallowe ' en Social with music by Leon Mayer and chairmanned by Jim O ' Neill and Bernard Toomey of the JOHN R. HEFFERNAN President Business School was attended by the largest crowd ever to join the Tower Building. A Record Hop at the Chalet started a cycle of successful copies run by other classes. Tom Flanagan and Prexy Heffernan ran the Disc Junction. The last class get-together before the social peak event, the Prom, was the banquet on the 26th of February under the Tower. Carroll O ' Neill chairmanned the fine dinner and speech parade. Then came the Prom with Charlie Price and Bill Connelly furnishing the guid- ing genius. Fran Burke ' s music thrilled and several more firsts were added to the imposing list of class innovations. But the social side of the year was only a part of the activities of the class. Football ' s autumnal madness was added to by Al Morro, Ad Kissell, Frank Davis, Frank Maznicki, Bob Jauron, Jus- tin McGowan, Ed Zabilski, Ad Pasink, Terry Geogeghan, Steve Levanitis and Ronnie Corbett. JOSEPH R. HEGARTY Secretary History JAMES P. O ' NEILL Vice-President On the diamond Tom Dawson, Frank Davis, Joe Hegarty, Dick Ferriter, Bob Harris, Ronnie Corbett and Ed McDon- ald gave Coach Maguire many happy moments as he envisioned the fine play of his teams of the next few years. Outstanding among the trackmen were Johnnie Ballantine, Bill Riley, Dick Buckley, Fred Seeley, Ed Weiss, Ad Kissel, Justin McGowan and Al Mor- ro. Several of them seem destined for National Championships and Olympic fame — if there are more Olympiads. Hockey ' s brightest stars came from Sophomore and in the main these great young players were responsible for the return of the Sands Trophy to the A.A. trophy table. Ray Chaisson, Al Du- mond, Vin Robinson, Hugh Sharkey, Jim Boudreau, Joe Sullivan, Bob Mee and Larry Houle dominated the first two teams. The first pair were on top of the collegiate list for high scoring with Chaisson breaking all listed records. The Hei ghts had Harry Brown, Ed Weiss, Bob Drinan and Dick Keating collecting editorships for their fine work. Ed Weiss became News Editor, Dick Keating and Bob Drinan Special Editors and Harry Brown took over the post of Assistant Sports Editor. Many other members of the class were mem- bers of the Editorial, News, Feature, So- ciety and Sports Staffs. The Stylus sported Joe Dever, one of the finest rimesters ever to take pen in hand and satirize modern life. The Mar- guette with President Bob Muse in the chair was filled with Sophomores. Bob Drinan, John Ross, Martin Hansberry, Joseph Timpany, Bob Kopp, Charlie Mackin, Bill Cadigan and Joe McNally featured many debates. But the records are incomplete. Two years hence a complete story of their adventures and ventures will find a re- ceptive place in this very book. May the two years be worthy of Boston College ' s honorable position. We know they will. THOMAS J. FLANAGAN Treasurer SOPHOmflOKE niRECTOECY Sophomores A ANDREWS, FRED JOSEPH 156 Lawton Ave., Lynn, Mass. Sodality.

Froslinien With schedules in one hand and a ponderous Snyder and Martin in the other, the members of ' forty-three sur- veyed the Gothic structure of the Tower building with a mingled feeling of awe and expectancy. From the student handbook we learned that the first three days were to be spent in orienta- tion. Just what this was, many of us were not quite sure. We were expecting anything from examinations to initia- tions. However, orientation came and passed with the absence of these hazards. In the first week of October the Freshman Retreat was held with the Rev. Fr. McGovern, S.J. as the re- treat master. With truly inspired ora- tory, Fr. McGovern moved all of us to a closer view of God. October sped by, and then in November the class was called upon to elect its officers. After a vigorous and lively campaign by the GEORGE CRISS President many embryonic statesmen, the follow- ing men were elected: George Criss, President; Gilbert Walker, Vice-presi- dent; Ralph Nash, Treasurer; Edmund Lyons, Secretary; and Edward Maho- ney, A.A. Representative. The first social event of the year was arranged under the direction of the Rev. Fr. John P. Foley, S.J., Dean of the Freshman Class, the distinctly success- ful Freshman Banquet. Held in the eve- ning of Freshman Day, it was preceded by movies and a football game in which the B. C. yearlings successfully defended their slate against B. U. to the score of 19-0. Early in December we were given a chance to show our color at our initial social whirl in the form of an Under the Tower Dance. The class responded in a manner which did full justice to our fondest dreams, — and the EDMUND J,YON3 Secretary tstor;y GILBERT WALKER Vice-President escorts also; for, to put in an understate- ment, the pleasing array of feminine pulchritude all but fetched our hearts away. Came the Christmas Holidays, followed in swift succession by the mid- years. The class started the second se- mester with another Under the Tower Dance. This, too, was characterized by the same degree of success as the first. The keen anticipation of the Freshman Spring Formal was not disappointed by its arrival. The happiness with which we all looked forward to Mother ' s Day with its special program is still with us even though the day itself has gone to the limbo of the past. The year, indeed, has been a memo- rable one with honorable achievement crowning our endeavors in the schol- astic, athletic, and social spheres. Many of the men of the Freshman Class have been outstanding in the numerous and varied fields of the extracurricular ac- tivities. To cite only one instance, of the eight contestants for the Harrigan Ora- torical prize, four were men of ' forty- three; John McNaught, Joseph Tim- pany, Thomas Curran, and Robert Don- Ian. The Glee Club, the Dramatic So- ciety, and the Debating Society drew many active members from the class. Looking back for a moment before we make the turn into Sophomore Lane, we honestly confess to a warm glow of satisfaction, prompted by our experi- ences, many and varied, during the year that lies behind. Confident in the hope that the years under the Tower that open up before us will be as fruit- ful in their achievement. We set our test firmly on the road, encouraged by the vision that led the Class of ' 40 to the realization of their ambitions.

It seeks the personal sanc- tification of its members, and aims at spreading the principles of Jesus Christ by example and teaching. Rev. Francis J. Coyne, S.J. has been the guide and the inspiration for the sodalists of the Junior-Senior branch, worthily meriting the sincere esteem in which he is held. Mr. Paul V. McNulty, S.J. has directed all the activities of the Freshman-Sophomore section. The organization is sub-divided into several committees, namely, the Eucharistic, Apostolic, Lecture, Social, Peace, and Publicity committees. The Eucharistic committee is most impor- tant as its function is the spiritual growth of the sodalists in Christ; it has emphasized attendance at daily mass and com- munion, and use of the missal for the students; all other commit- tees flow from it. The Apostolic committee endeavors to spread Christ ' s Mystical Body thr ough Christian charity; its members have worked commendably for the blind, the poor, and the mis- sions. The Lecture Committee disseminates the mind of Christ by an extensive campaign of discussions on Catholic principles; during the year its activities have typified the best in American Collegiate Catholic Action. Though the spirit of Boston College is preeminently demo- cratic, the school does not fail to recognize degrees of perfection in student achievement. In every democracy there are the Aris- toi or best men who generously give of themselves and their talents for the guidance of their State and the sustenance of her spirit. So it is also in college life. Democratic though it is, there are always the best men groups, and these are they whom Boston College forms into an honor society. The Order of the Cross and Crown, an organization which is reserved to mem- bers of the Senior Class who have achieved distinction during their first three years, both in studies and extra-curricular activ- ities. Any Senior who is a true leader will have won for himself a place in the Order of the Cross and Crown. i lplia 9is|mtt Mil The Alpha Sigma Nu is a National Jesuit Fraternity which has chapters in many of the Jesuit colleges and universities through- out the United States. A chapter of this society was installed at Boston College in 1939. The Alpha Sigma Nu honors students who distinguish themselves in scholarship, loyalty, and service; it promotes the activities of the college and of the students; it bands together the members of the alumni who best understand the ideals of a Jesuit education; it investigates any movement which is detrimental to the welfare of the college; and it takes action to remove the causes of such a movement. Wendell L. Turley, may God rest his soul, was a member of the Alpha Sigma Nu at Boston College. Our deceased classmate and brother member was an outstanding example of the type of men wanted in this fraternity. This chapter of the Alpha Sigma Nu is of very recent origin and has done little as yet to fulfill its purposes. It may be safely predicted however that it will grow and bloom into the full flower of an active, helpful, institution in Boston College. Our chapter is now beginning its activities and soon will be a substantial aid in the realization of the ideals of its College. Fulton ■ ebatinsi 9ociet:y The Fulton Debating Society, oldest and most widely known extra curricular activity at Boston College, this year continued the unbroken string of forensic successes which were inaugu- rated seventy-two years ago in 1868 by Father Robert Fulton S.J. The society, originally known as the Senior Debating So- ciety, took the name of its founder in 1890, just fifty years ago. On the occasion of this golden anniversary of the naming of the Fulton, the members of the varsity team worked tirelessly and most successfully in upholding the name and reputation of the Fulton against every top-ranking college in the East. The debating year was inaugurated in early December with an international contest with Oxford, England. The Fulton, ably represented by Paul Greeley and Francis X. Ahearn, achieved a notable victory before an overflowing audience of about sev- enteen hundred people. The Fulton ' s unusually heavy schedule contained such formidable opponents as Ottawa, (Canada), Holy Cross, Harvard, Catholic University, Fordham, Georgetown, Siena, St. Peter ' s, Tufts and many others. Seniors most active during the year were Paul Greeley, Francis X. Ahearn, John M. Malloy, George Gallagher, Edmund Kenny, Edward Greeley, Joseph Shea, Willi am Joy, and Joseph Shannon. Paul Greeley and John M. Malloy held the gavel for the first and second se- mesters respectively. Hfliisie CIiiIb One afternoon. Anno Domini 1916, in the choir loft of the Im- maculate Conception Church of Boston, twenty-three voices sang the praises of a new-born club of Boston College. The echoes of those voices have not yet died out, for that infant club, the Music Club of Boston College, has since grown, year after year in- creasing in numbers, ever faithful to the purpose for which it was born. That purpose has always been to study and perform the best music both vocal and instrumental of all ages and of all peoples. One need only glance at a typical program of the club to see how faithful it has been to its aim. The Music Club of Boston College, composed of a Glee Club and an Orchestra, is an outstanding factor in spreading the Col- lege ' s renown throughout New England and New York. It boasts of regular members and next to the Sodality is the largest in numbers. Due to the fact that it gives ten concerts a year, it vies ilflasic Club with the football team for the honor of being most often seen in action. Looking back over four years of Music Club activity the senior members feel that they have gained many cultural benefits. In fact anyone who once plays an instrument in a Schumann Sym- phony must ever afterwards listen to a full orchestra with more interest and enthusiasm. He can really appreciate the great masterpieces. Likewise anyone who has joined with eighty other voices in performing a work of Handel, has experienced the charm of choral music. As Thackeray said, Next to excellence is the appreciation of it. 1 HENRY I. McMAHON FREDERICK W. DOW FRANCIS X. AHEARN Sub Turi i FRANCIS X. AHEARN, Editor-in-Chief HENRY J.

Flynn Sub Turrt The Sub Turri has elsewhere tooted the horn for others; on this page it toots its own horn; it herewith presents the Hst of men who produced it. Frank Ahearn, the Editor-in-Chief, was the fellow who had all the worry and responsibility of directing the publishing of the Sub Turri. The Business Manager and salesman of advertising space was Frederick Dow, who had as his assistant Dave Lucey, of football fame. Henry McMahon served as the Managing Editor and chauffeur of the staff. The Editor ' s assistants included Tom Duffey, Art Cullen, and Joe Mc- Kenney. Joe Grandfield as Sports Editor rounded up the shots and written matter for football, baseball, hockey and track. The Plutarchs of the Seniors were supervised by John Banks, Biog- raphy Editor. In charge of the pictures and the writeups for the various activities was John Gosselin, Activities Editor. Paul B. Hurley was Photographic Editor. George Gallagher and James Russell compiled the history of the Class of ' 40. Paul Greeley saw to the distribution of the yearbook to those who had presented the requisite wad of folding green paper. Dedicated to the precision of logic, the Marquette Debating Society convened in early October under the direction of the Rev. Richard G. Shea, S.J., and the Rev. Charles Donovan, S.J. Co-operation was stressed as being the means to a successful year. That there was co-operation among the members was testi- fied by the successful presentation of a mock trial and many well planned debates. The trial, presented for the purpose of introducing the Fresh- men, revolved about Gordon O ' Brien, the defendant, who was acquitted by a jury of thirteen Freshmen on the charges of using a trot. In actual debating, the Marquette enjoyed one of its most active and successful years. Proving itself worthy of the earnest efforts of its moderators, the Marquette, represented by Presi- dent Robert Muse and Vice-President Martin Hansberry, de- feated the Fulton Society on the isolation question, and became nominal champions of the college. The voice of the Marquette was heard over the air waves as it humbled the Salem Teachers ' team; it was heard resounding in the halls of Dartmouth with the debaters from Hanover. It also participated in debates with the University of New Hampshire, Siena College, Fordham, Holy Cross, St. Joseph ' s, Annapolis, and Catholic University. Stiideot i%tliletic ssoclatlou Through an excellent, systematized program, consisting of lively rallies, colorful dances and numerous innovations the Stu- dent Athletic Association, under the leadership of Joseph W. Foley, has engendered a vital, college spirit at University Heights which has permeated every phase of college activity. This spirit has injected new life into the College and has become a vital force in spreading the name and fame of Alma Mater. With the co-operation of Father Collins, S.J., Faculty Director of Athletics, and John P. Curley, Graduate Manager of Athletics, a consolidated student-cheering section was formed and or- ganized on the coveted fifty yard line. This arrangement aided tremendously in uniting the students in a stronger bond of good fellowship, and contributed in producing the most concerted cheering section in these parts. Besides, with escort games and dances, the social nature of the student was given full expression in a manner that literally glowed with athletic lore and social brilliance. The careful blending of the athletic interes ts of the students with their social interests met with amazing success, since the students were al- lowed to congregate more socially, and were given the oppor- tunity to fraternize more at will, thus making more acquaint- ances and cultivating stronger friendships. May this spirit per- sist, and may it always be distinct as Boston College Spirit. M-atto .cadem As old as the College itself is the Latin Academy, which has up- held the traditions and interests of the classics throughout the years. It has kept alive the spirit which is embodied in the works of the Roman writers, namely, the drama, the epic, and the his- tories of ancient times. The Academy weaves its program about these subjects. Its moderator is the Rev. Fr. Mulcahy, S.J., whose guidance and inspiration in the last four years have created an active interest in its work. The drama is studied with a view to the essential principles laid down by the Roman dramatists. The workings and the importance of the Roman theatre are also con- tained within its scope. The members of the Academy take an active part in the pro- ceedings, having various subjects assigned to them for discus- sion. As a part of the course, Cicero ' s Pro Archias and The Catalinian Oration have been re-arranged into play form. The Bore of Horace has likewise been transposed. Knowing the importance and the lasting effects of the classics, the Latin Academy has attempted to keep the interest strong at Boston College, endeavoring to give its members that back- ground which will distinguish them from those not favored with similar opportunities. We have set a standard which must be borne along down through the years. Oreek %ca«lein A keener interest in the Greek language and a greater love for Greek art and literature than could be satisfied in the or- dinary class routine inspired the formation some years ago of the Greek Academy. Aware of the fundamental importance of the classics the Academy has endeavored to promote interest along these lines by presenting a practical supplementary treat- ment of the class subject matter. This year, under the able direc- tion of Father Oswald A. Reinhalter, S.J., the organization has offered excellent opportunity for specialized and concentrated study in Greek drama, lyric poetry and philosophy. The French Academy, during the season 1939-40, has been highly successful in its various fields of activity. As in past years, the activities of the Academy have centered about its weekly meetings. Professors of the French Department and members of the Academy discussed a wide range of topics — highlights of literature and history, as well as current events. A feature of the year ' s program was the open discussions period, which had a place in each meeting. The Academy ' s Christmas Party took place at the Philoma- theia Chalet before the Christmas Holidays. Members and their guests enjoyed dancing, refreshments, and a dramatic skit; they also enjoyed singing popular and traditional songs in French. Other features of the year ' s activity were the Academy ' s annual dramatic production, which took place in April, and the annual Concours Oratoire between the members. The moderators of the Academy this year were Messieurs Ernest A. Siciliano and Timothy Burke of the Romance Language Department. The German Academy is an organization devoted exclusively to the interests of students of that language and its history dates from the earliest days of the College. The number of German students in the Freshman and Sophomore classes has been ex- ceptionally high in recent years and since the majority of these belong to the German Academy, it is accordingly the third largest undergraduate organization at Boston College. The first event conducted by this organization this year was the annual German banquet which is usually held at the commence- ment of the second semester. Characteristic of this affair were a real German supper, the singing of Bavarian folk tunes and after-dinner guest speakers. This year a dance also was held, an informal affair staged in the Senior Assembly Hall. The moderator of the German Academy is Dr. Boulanger, whose kind counsel and assistance made the various activities possible. To the officers of the club, Herrs Hayden, Orlandella, and Elfano, much credit is due for arranging another pleasant year for the members of the Academy and their friends. Spanish cadem In 1936, Dr. Eduardo Azuola started active work towards reor- ganizing the long established Spanish Academy of which he had been appointed moderator. From a mere handful the num- ber of members has increased to over eighty who meet after class twice a month to discuss, informally, topics pertaining to Spanish culture and of general Spanish interest. The Academy, with the co-operation of the Iberian Club of Manchester, N. H., has been able to offer to its members and friends, dances and musicales of true Spanish style and origin, and has climaxed each year ' s work with a banquet and dance. Miss Madeline Les- sard, graduate of Boston College and director of the Iberian Club, shares the credit for such entertainments. Prominent among the distinguished speakers who have hon- ored the Academy, have been: the Honorales Gomez-Duran, Lo- ria, and Callejas, Consuls of Colombia, Costa Rica, and Hon- duras respectively; and Dr. Gustavo de Aragon, former presi- dent of the Havana College, Cuba. The Spanish Academy enjoyed its greatest success of recent years with the presentation of Sierra ' s play, Rosina es Fragil at the Copley Theatre, Boston, on the occasion of the 75th Anni- versary of the College. Mtaliam cadem The Italian Academy had its beginning in 1934 when a delega- tion of Italian University students visited Boston College. Since that time, the Academy has become popular on the campus, not only along academic but also along social lines. Its aim is to bring its members into closer contact with Italian literature and culture. That the members are active participants in the Academy ' s functions, witness the two dramatic productions La Patente and L ' Imbecile, both of which were directed by our capable moderator Dr. Gino de Solenni. The former play was given at the Copley Theatre in connection with the celebration of the Seventy-fifth Anniversary of Boston College. The latter was pre- sented in the Library Auditorium before a capacity audience, who lauded the student performance. Social high spot of the year is the Annual Banguet held in the Fall, which was this year presided over by our amiable president, Vinicio Nasca. As a means of fulfilling the aim of the Academy we have of- fered many lectures on cultural topics. This year the Academy was very fortunate in hearing Father Carol Bernhardt, S.J. de- liver his beautifully illustrated lecture on The Madonna in Italian Art. Many other lecturers addressed our gatherings at various times, and we have had as our friend and our most dis- tinguished patron. Carlo de Constantin, Marchese di Chateau- nuif. Royal Italian Consul. Pi o-Mflodical Seminar Boston College is proud of the splendid preparation secured by its pre-med students. However, to obtain the same, a rather heavy class schedule has been required, thus making it difficult for these future M.D. ' s to engage in extra-curricular activities. Six years ago they decided to have an activity of their own. This is one of the most select groups of men in the College. Member- ship is restricted to the Senior Class, specifically to Senior Biol- ogy students. The group has been most fortunate in having as its counsellor and director, a fatherly priest, Fr. Francis J. Dore, S.J. who under- stood their problems. He has given most generously of his friend- ship and advice, so necessary for making medical students worthy of becoming our future men in white. This Seminar has been a very practical forerunner of medical school. It has given the followers of Hippocrates, who would learn the healing art, a sound and worthwhile foundation on which to build their future medical careers. Throughout its meet- ings the theory of Catholic Ethics and morality in medical prac- tice has predominated, thus equipping our aspiring medicos with apt, scientific, ethical solutions to problems they are bound to meet. The Seminar has, indeed, proven worthy of fostering the ideals its members cherish. The birth of the Crystal two years ago opened a new field of interest for the Chemistry students, under the direction of Rev. Anthony G. Carroll, S.J. As the official organ of the Chemists ' Club, it satisfied a definite need. Its formulation has unified the chemical students who are prevented by a strenuous Class and Laboratory schedule from sharing many of the other extra-cur- ricular activities of the College. Its purpose is three-fold, first to incite an interest in things chemical, secondly, to give the student greater facility in writing future articles of a chemical nature, and thirdly, to develop greater perfection and adaptability in solving things chemical. The Crystal has found its way into the foremost industrial laboratories in the country, spreading the names of Boston Col- lege chemists and providing an introduction for its contributors. That its arrival and growth have met with tremendous approval from all guarters is evident by the enthusiastic comments of countless business and professional men. Spurred on by the untiring zeal of those who have gone be- fore, it is our pride that there has been left behind, when our hours on the Heights are but happy memories, a work worthy of emulation by future classes. Chemistr dub The Chemistry Club was, formerly, a dream of the heads of the Chemistry Dept., who envisioned a more complete and more interesting curricula for the students of science. The dream was not to be forgotten but was actualized by Fr. McGuinn, S.J. Under the capable guidance of Rev. Anthony C arroll, S.J. the Chemistry Club has become one of the most successful organizations at the college. In order to acquaint the members of the society with many varied fields of chemical and professional endeavor, Fr. Carroll arranged an imposing lecture program. Nation-wide authorities in industry, chemistry, and medicine were invited to lecture on subjects within their fields. The response from our members was more than satisfactory, with a practical advantage being re- ceived by everyone present. In the demonstration and photo clubs apparatus, chemicals, a dark room, and other facilities were placed at the disposal of the members to demonstrate the practical as well as the theo- retical side of these sciences. Interest was widespread in both clubs with the success being rapid and remarkable. It is with deep regret that we seniors leave behind us the re- membrances of the many happy hours which the Chemistry Club has afforded us. It is with commensurate joy, however, that we leave behind us the seeds of a bigger and better club. Ten years ago the Physics Seminar of Boston College was born. It was the product of one man ' s dreams and work. That such an organization would come into being was inevitable, but for it to reach its present high level of achievement is a tribute to its founder and present moderator. Rev. John A. Tobin, S.J., Head of the Department of Physics. Its work is to supplement the regular curriculum of the B.S. in Physics course. This is accomplished by a weekly series of lec- tures given by graduate and undergraduate students majoring in Physics. Each lecturer does some research work on his own time and initiative and then gives a fifty minute lecture followed by a question and answer period. This year six fine seminars were presented by members of the class of ' 40. George Flynn explained the theory of Flashlight Pho- tography; Joseph Grandfield theorized on Sound Recording; John Kinnier developed the theory of the new Electron Micro- scope; John Laverty demonstrated the latest resuhs of Cold Light research; William Laverty examined and explained the inner workings of the Bell System Teletypewriters. John McLaughlin excellently summarized the technique of applying Vector and Acceleration Diagrams to practical problems. The Boston College Radio Station operating under the official call letters of WIPR is located on the second floor of the science building. The purpose of the club is to develop in its members a knowledge of the modern applications of radio telegraphy and telephony. At the present time the station is equipped with a one hundred watt radio telegraph transmitter, and a radiotelephone transmitter for use on the ultra high frequencies. The receiving apparatus consists of a modern superheterodyne receiver ca- pable of responding to all amateur and commercial bands. In addition the club has recently acquired a receiver of the regen- erative type designed especially for reception at ultra high fre- quencies. During the year a course of lectures was given to the mem- bers, teaching the fundamental electrical principles involved in radio engineering and in transmission and reception of the inter- national Morse code. The aim of the lectures being to enable new members to obtain their amateur licenses from the Federal Communications Commission in order to more fully enjoy the hobby of amateur radio. Signals from WIPR have been heard the world over and many confirmations have been received from all parts of the globe. ■C icd Hflatliematlcal caclem A few years ago the school founded this academy to com- memorate one of the Jesuit ' s greatest mathematicians, Father Ricci, who spent his hfe as a zealous missionary in China during the early years of the Society of Jesus. The academy aims to im- part a cultural background which will enable those interested to appreciate the significance of recent development in mathe- matics. It offers the student an opportunity to suggest his own problem and present it before the members at a regular meeting. The club meets bi-monthly. It is open to both Sophomores and Freshmen. The officers strive to obtain guest faculty speakers for alternate meetings. For the remaining meetings the students prepare lectures on the lives of great mathematicians. These lec- tures along with interesting mathematical problems are pub- lished in the official paper of the club, the Ricci Mathematical Journal. An outstanding point of the club is the fact that it is develop- ing. New ideas are being introduced by the moderator and members. This is almost a necessity in a new club because it has no precedent. Nevertheless it adds life and variety to the meet- ings. The Heights, the weekly news organ of Boston College, cele- brated its twentieth anniversary as a publication this past year. Directly in charge of all departments of the Heights this past year has been Arthur V. Cullen, editor, who, with his associate editor, Joe McKenney, has most ably guided the policy of the Heights. In addition to his position as editor. Art wrote the column Tabloid, in which he cleverly presented a kaleido- scopic view of activities in general at the school. Others who added success to the paper were John F. Ryan, managing editor; J. Harry Lynch and John Dacey, who jointly ruled the editorial department; Robert Cronin, Albert Arsenault, Paul Post, and Edmund Weis who served as free lancers, handling stories in every branch of the publication; Joseph Grandfield and Edmund J. Kenny, who served as aides to the Sports Editor along with Elmore Campbell, who wrote for all de- partments. Jack Dalton did his part in presenting his enjoyable column The Inquiring Reporter. In his column Thru the Eagle ' s Eye Jim Kean, as Sports Edi- tor, followed the rise and fall of Boston College ' s athletes in a very interesting manner. Gerry Converse, Feature Editor, was responsible for an interesting column in his In One Ear ; writ- ing in a humorous manner, Gerry added his bit to making this year ' s paper one of the best in recent years. The Stylus started its year with the tragic loss of its former editor, Wendell Turley. Nevertheless, under the direction of their new moderator. Rev. Fr. Leonard, S.J. the staff set themselves to the task of producing a magazine capable of fulfilling the wishes of Wendell. Joseph T. Vinburg, the new editor, ably assisted by his experienced feature editor, John C. Moynihan and managing editor Paul K. Duff ey, undertook the new year ' s work. Among the staff were such veterans of one and two years as Bernard Fra- zier, Frederic O ' Hara, John Paul Dubrule, Francis Lally, Robert Phillips, and Francis Diskin. The first issue was dedicated to Wendell, and featured many innovations. The most outstanding, however, was the cover de- sign. With the end in view of creating something modern and also something which would be in tune with the literary contents of the magazine, Wendell had engaged the service of Adelaide de Bethune, the well-known Catholic-Worker artist, who soon suggested our new cover. This year, serious literature was combined with the spice of student life. As regards the former, we have presented a criti- cism of some author each month, having taken as our subjects such erudite figures as Wilfred Meynell, Henry Thoreau, Robert Frost, Thomas McDonagh, and Alice Meynell. HWritevs dub The Writers ' Club held its weekly meetings on Thursday. Its new moderator was Rev. Thomas Feeney, S.J., well known in literary circles as a book-reviewer for the Catholic weekly pub- lication, America. The functions of the club are few in number. Each week its members are lectured to by Father Feeney on literature in general who points out in particular the different styles used by various classical, as well as modern authors. Special atten- tion is paid to the proper methods for acquiring the best literary effects. It is the purpose of the club to have its members cultivate a taste for Catholic reading, and thus to characterize their writing accordingly. In this way the student is urged to write with a Catholic pen and by doing so, a desire in readers to foster a delight for Catholic literature is created. Each member of the club is expected to do as much writing as possible; to pass in a weekly paper to be criticised. In turn these compositions are finally submitted to the class for suggestions and corrections under the proper supervision of the moderator. Thus, through mutual aid of this type much is done to improve the literary style of the members of this organization. ■Bvamatic Society Superb, Impressive Record, Professional Quality, Per- fect Characterization. Such lavish words of praise did the Bos- ton critics shower upon this year ' s dramatic society. They opened the year with a smashing triumph in Shakespear ' s Taming of the Shrew and then followed this up with a climaxing finish in Richard Connells and Leo Brady ' s Brother Orchid. In the giv- ing of these two plays they continued their policy of presenting uncommon, but none the less popular works, instead of the more well known plays of the day. It all began back in Freshman year when first Yellow Jack, then The Music Makers, Antigone, Second Spring, and Ion were successfully acted behind the footlights by our fast rising thespians. To the Rev. Louis Bonn, S.J., director of the Society should go the glory and acclaim for his guidance and supervision, because only by his efforts could the extraordinary finish of the produc- tion be achieved. The officers of the club included Ted Finnerty, President, Bob Henderson, Vice-President, Sec-Treasurer, John Masterson, with Frank Cosgrove, Business Manager, and Fred Robertie, Publicity Manager. To Walter McDonough, Bob Tilley, and Ed Twomey go bouquets of thanks for their excellent work behind stage. Special mention of praise must be given to those other members of our class who won fame and distinguished themselves behind the lights such as Frank Donovan, Tom Duf- fey, James Doonan, Russell Sherrin and Gordon Santacross. ■_a w and Oowerniiiont cadi iiiy The importance of a knowledge of the principles of Law and Government is unquestioned in these days of rapid social change. Hence it is that both professors and students deem the class time devoted to these subjects insufficient, and remedy the defect by giving their free time to study more fully certain aspects of these topics. Most of the work undertaken by the Academy has been done by the undergraduates themselves in the form of weekly lec- tures. The conflict in Europe provided matter for discussion, and although the dictator nations were censured, little sympathy was forthcoming for the democracies; the general attitude was that they were guilty of equally great offenses in the past, and that their own policy was responsible for the present war. Domestic problems were examined, including our position as a neutral, the national defense, the results of a war upon our democratic processes, and the third-term issue. Among the guest speakers whom the Academy heard were the Rev. J. F. X. Murphy, S.J., Mr. Frederick T. Bryan, and the Rev. James Burke, S.I. Dr. Harry Doyle, our moderator, was most helpful, and under his guidance the Academy has enjoyed a most successful year. Eeonomlcs i caclMii: Though only in its ninth year, the Economics Academy has rapidly become one of the most popular student activities at Bos- ton College. Soon after its inception in 1932, with Mr. Fox, S.J. as initial moderator, the organization attracted the attention and interest of the entire student body. However, the ship did not really find its chartered course until 1936 when Mr. Robert Buck took over the helm. Under his careful direction and inspiration the sailing has been steady and straight, every avenue of eco- nomic interest having been travelled. To stimulate added interest the weekly meetings have been conducted in symposium style, with certain members delivering the talks, while the whole assemblage engages in the open forum discussion. From time to time guest speakers have ap- peared before the gathering, but, for the most part, the work is done by the members themselves. Since 1938 the Academy has also carried on an external pro- gram, by presenting lectures to various organizations through- out greater Boston. The teams are composed of three men each, and an open forum is held at the conclusion of the talks; the response from the audiences, and the ability and success of the speakers has been most satisfactory. Conducted with the purpose of furthering the development of the class and lecture work, the Sociology Academy has become one of the most important and popular activities in the College. Doctor George F. Fitzgibbons, the Moderator, believing that eminent men in the wide field of social study could best supple- ment the principles enunciated in the class room by lectures along more practical lines, drew up a program which brought these prominent authorities to the College as guests. During the school year, the Academy heard Doctor Lawrence Kelley, M.D., Superintendent of Tewksbury State Hospital; Hon. Francis To- masello. Justice of the Municipal Court; Hon. John J. Burns, former Justice of the Massachusetts Superior Court; Hon. Paul A. Dever, Attorney-General of the Commonwealth, and numerous others. Each authority spoke in his own immediate field and gave intelligent insight into the treatment of the social problem with which he was concerned. It was on these occasions that the Academy, realizing the value of the words of its distinguished guests, opened its doors to the student body at large. As the activities of the Academy progressed, the membership and at- tendance increased to huge proportions. Catholic Stiidont ■ eace Federation To stimulate greater interest in international problems, to work for the adoption of Catholic principles in world politics as the only means to secure a just and lasting peace, the Catholic Stu- dent Peace Federation was formed. This group affiliated itself with the Catholic Association for International Peace. At the meetings of the Student Federation in Washington and at the various New England regional meetings for the past two years, Boston College has been represented. This year, the New Eng- land regional Federation met at the Heights. Responsible for the success of this meeting were Father James Burke, S.J., the mod- erator of the Boston College Chapter, our own Frank Ahearn who was President of the New England branch of the Federa- tion, and Frederick Dow, the corresponding secretary. At the national convention of the Catholic Student Peace Fed- eration in Washington this year Frank Ahearn represented Bos- ton College. Great has been and still greater will be the work of this Student Peace Federation in spreading knowledge of and interest in the principles which will restore Pax Christi in regno Christi. Xlie IBoikton Collogt Fl; ins| CIiiIb Last October the Government offered a project under the su- pervision of the Civil Aeronautics Authority which proposed to train college men in aviation until certified to operate aircraft. This program included an approved ground school course and sufficient flight time to certificate thirty students as private pilots. The Reverend Father John A. Tobin, S.J., Head of the Physics De- partment and Supervisor of Aeronautics at Boston College dis- posed of over two hundred applications. A preliminary physical examination and another more rigid test by government ap- proved flight surgeons determined the thirty student pilots. Ground school, under the tutelage of Pilot William A. Batty of E. W. Wiggins Airways, consisted in instruction in the funda- mentals of aviation with specific stress on Air Regulations, Navigation, Meteorology. Flight training in Cub Trainers was received at Norwood Airport under the instruction of government certified pilots. Fired with enthusiasm for aviation the Boston College pilots founded The Boston College Flying Club with the thirty Civil Aeronautics students as charter members. This distinctive unit was established to promote interest in aviation at Boston College and provide easier accessibility to flying time and equipment. To the Flying Club goes the honor of returning the Boston College Eagle to his reign of the firmament. Oold BCe Society The Gold Key Society was instituted with the express purpose of effecting better and more intimate relationships between Bos- ton College and its official guests. A committee of members is delegated to meet all visiting collegiate teams and guests, to welcome them on behalf of the college, and to arrange for their entertainment and convenience during their stay. This function is performed in most colleges by similar key or- ganizations and does much toward creating harmony and con- geniahty among the various institutions. It is all in keeping with the tenets of good etiquette which demand that a guest be wel- comed and that his stay be made as pleasant as possible. The membership of the society is limited to thirty members, twenty-seven of whom are from the Junior Class, and three se- niors who serve as an advisory board. % on Pastor Hi tt ry Academy The Academy is named after Doctor Ludwig von Pastor, one of the most prominent promoters of historical science in the realm of Church History. The general purpose of the organiza- tion is to promote the Study of History in all its phases. The work of the Von Pastor has proved valuable to all concerned, for it has stimulated and developed a wider interest in the study of the sources of history and the method of historical research. The particular subject for study during the current year was, The History of the Catholic Church in the United States. The Academy has devoted its every effort this year to promoting a more active interest in this subject. Under the guidance of their co-operative moderator. Rev. Maurice F. Reidy, the members have presented a series of weekly discussions. A discussion pe- riod followed each of these talks, and in these open forums the members have had an opportunity to receive or pass on interest- ing facts about the subject at hand. These functions along with addresses by prominent visiting lecturers have on the whole made of the Academy a practical and worthwhile organization. Semiiiavians To you, our fellow classmates, we dedicate this prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi. We see in it the embodiment of your vocation and the rule of your lives. Lord make me a channel of Thy peace That where there is hatred — I may bring love, That where there is wrong — I may bring the spirit of forgiveness. That where there is discord — I may bring harmony, That where there is error — I may bring truth. That where there is doubt — I may bring faith, That where there is despair — I may bring hope. That where there are shadows — I may bring Thy light. That where there is sadness — I may bring joy. Lord grant that I may seek rather To comfort — than to be comforted: To understand — than to be understood: To love — than to be loved: For It is by giving — that one receives: It is by self forgetting — that one finds: It is by forgiving — that one is forgiven: It is by dying — that one awakens to the eternal life. flTHIfT S W ii r s i t I feel beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Seniors on our football team during the past season were respon- sible in a very large measure for the success we enjoyed. Hard work, splen- did team spirit and excellent physical condition were predominant charac- teristics of the seniors from the time that I first met them right through until the end of the campaign in Dallas, Texas. The members of the class of 1940 were always the first players on the practice field and their attitude be- came contagious and spread to the FRANCIS W.

It is my firm conviction that if the seniors carry on in life as they did at Boston College that they are destined to meet with unlimited success in their chosen fields. Their absence next year will be keenly felt. I hope that they will drop around often in the future — for their presence at our games will serve as a real inspiration to our teams. — Frank W. Leahy.

O ' Hourke. e b a n o n DICK HARRISON Little Lebanon Valley travelled all the way from Pennsylvania to Alumni Field to show Coach Leahy as many Eagle soft spots as possible. Although the visitors took a terrific beating, they gave more than one clue to the weak- nesses and strong points of the first Leahy vehicle. Lou Montgomery scored the first touchdown of the season on a 17-yard jaunt through the center of the Leba- non line. And the panic had started. Charlie O ' Rourke completed a pass, the now famous deep pass, to Ananis for the second touchdown and an over all total of forty yards. Pete Cignetti bucked over from five yards out. An- anis intercepted a pass and scooted twenty-five yards off tackle for the fifth and O ' Rourke swept around the end THERE GOES VITO for the sixth. The final tally was a McGowan - Cowhig pass good for eighteen yards. The filled stands didn ' t see a smooth functioning Maroon and Gold team. It was a fast, smart and powerful team. But the power and the speed were spotty. Faulty timing and lack of pre- game scrimmages were in the main responsible. Puerile attempts to lat- eral cost the inexperienced Eagles a few bad moments, but fine defensive playing kept the mistakes from kick- ing back. Vito Ananis, Charlie O ' Rourke and Lou Montgomery showed so much promise in this opener that there was no doubt in anyone ' s mind that this backfield trio would be the outstand- ing backs of Eastern football. Pete Cignetti was fine defensively and a powerhouse offensively. CHEER LEADERS WHERE DID YO ' ALL COME FROM BILL GRIFFIN St. Joseph ' s It drizzled down on Alumni Field and the first Ladies ' Day, (or should 1 say night) throng of the year. The only scheduled night game of the sea- son was a success in many ways. Little St. Joseph ' s, another unknown team from Pennsylvania, drew the sec- ond largest crowd of the year and the largest crowd ever to jam Alumni Field. The lights stayed on and Boston College with the adroit use of passes conquered the Hawks and the slip- pery going 20 - 6. Bob Jauron, sophomore left half back, gave a convincing demonstra- tion of the triple threater ' s art. He kicked, passed, and ran with all the skill of an Ail-American. Bob jaunted twenty yards through the whole St. Joseph ' s club for the first score after Lightnin ' Lou had put the ball in S ' ffat OUTTA MY WAY Colic S position by two fine runs. Jauron con- verted. Then St. Joseph ' s with a rugged de- fense and an alert offense came out of the ruck with a bang. Led by Joe Petro in the Hne, the Hawks slammed over the last white stripe for six points. Hartmann, a sub back, carried for the touchdown. Charlie O ' Rourke came on the scene and pass, pass, pass, and the ball was resting on the Hawk ' s twelve-yard line. Vito Ananis carried to the four, and Charlie hit the line for the clinching touchdown. The rest of the game was nip and tuck with Petro and Yauckoes stand- ing out individually in the battle of lines. Gene Goodreault scored the final Maroon and Gold tally on the end of a nice Jauron pass, good for twenty yards. I HATE TO DO THIS TOCZ COME BACK HERE YOU Florida October 12, 1939 will go down in the hearts and memories of every Senior as the day that proved both the undo- ing and the doing of the Schwotzer-led Eagles. Florida came all the way up with Josh Cody pulling the strings. And he pulled them mightily. His boys maneuvered themselves in- to an unexpected touchdown and then Josh Cody masterminded an unortho- dox defense into an impenetrable wall without a flaw. Bud Walton didn ' t show many of his highly touted talents but the one he did show gave the ' Gators a fine victory. The Southerners had worked the pigskin to midfield. There seemed to be no danger, but Mr. Walton did an O ' Rourke. Walton received the pass from center on the next play, faded back and back and heaved a perfect pass smack into the hands of OVER BUT CALLED BACK Cahill, his right end, and Josh Cody had his lead of six points. As the game turned out, the ' Gaters didn ' t need the point after. Wahon, however, spht the uprights with the placement. All this happened in the first period. From then on Boston College knocked upon the door time after time. But a clever five-man line turned into a shifting eight-man wall; play after play was smothered and attempted passes were never even thrown. Mush Battista and a soph end by the name of Ferguson flattened O ' Rourke every- time he cocked his arm. The touchdown shown below was called back on a rarely used penalty, pass plays just missed and five last ditch stands by Florida inside of the ten-yard line completed the ill-fated afternoon. THE ONLY HAPPY MOMENT ALL DAY CHARLIE JAUNTS o in p 1 e No one but the most rabid of Eagle rooters expected a victory over the third Pennsylvania team to visit Bos- ton in four weeks. Temple had been invulnerable in the line. Temple had licked national champions Texas Christian. Temple had never been beaten by Boston College. But the Florida game had done something to Boston ' s Maroon and Gold star wagon. To this day no one will be able to say exactly what it was. Perhaps it was Lightning Lou ' s re- turn to action that sparked the victory. Perhaps it was Lou Kidhardt ' s grand line play. Perhaps it was Vito Ananis ' terrific ball carrying. At any rate a certain spark was evident in every play. Every play clicked. The Maroon and Gold could make no errors. Vito Ananis scored first, culminating an 81 -yard drive during which vigor- LOU KIDHARDT PETE AND TOCZ LEADING MAC ous Vito gained 71 yards on spinners, reverses, laterals and fake bucks. The final play of the series saw Vito carry 13 yards for the score on his pet re- verse around left end. The second score was the result of a blocked kick. The whole Eagle line smothered Tomasic with Al Pasiuk first in on the luckless Owl. Frank Davis recovered and sped thirty yards for the score. Charlie O ' Rourke passed more than 40 yards to Alex Lukachik for the final tally. Lukachik ' s educated toe added the point. Lou Montgomery was sen- sational, although he didn ' t score. He intercepted a Temple touchdown pass behind the Maroon goal and ran it back 84 yards for the longest run of the season. Temple was simply out- classed. ASS ' T COACH ED McKEEVER SCHWOPE CARRIES BEHIND PERFECT INTERFERENCE St. ;% n s e 1 m ' 9 Rambling Ray McLean led his St. Anselm Hawks down to Alumni Field to treat the second Ladies ' Day crowd of the season to New Hampshire style football. Ray didn ' t do much rambl- ing, neither did the Hawks, and the only style of football the rabid weaker sex saw was strictly the Leahy brand. It was the same sharp blocking, hard running and smart thinking type of play that slaughtered Temple. St. Anselm suffered the same fate. In exactly ten plays after the open- ing whistle, the devastating Vito An- anis and Pete Cignetti roared over the payoff line right after each other. Vito scored the No. 1 tally in two successive runs starting at midfield. The first cov- ered fourteen yards right through center. The second cancelled the re- CHARLiE McCarthy GET TWO DAVE C o 1 1 e S e maining yardage behind perfect blocking around left end. Pete Cignetti smashed twenty-two yards dead through the St. Anselm frontier, shaking off all would-be tac- klers in his mad gallop for the payoff stripe. Alex Lukachik converted on both occasions. The rest of the game was strictly straight football. Coach Leahy kept his second and third clubs busy. Bob Jauron sparked a passing attack which resulted in score No. 3. He slipped a nice flat pass to Frank Maznicki for 12 yards and the touchdown. Lou Mont- gomery sparked the fourth touchdown carrying 72 yards in an 82-yard drive. Then Pete Cignetti split the packed Saint ' s defense for the tally. PETE ' S ON THE BOTTOM VITO ANANIS i% 1 a l a m a Auburn ' s Plainsmen came to Fen- way Park on a beautiful sunshiny day. And for fifty-six minutes a meagre crowd of about eleven thousand fans saw a repetition of the Florida loss. A certain Dick McGowen kicked Boston College deep into t heir own territory every time Auburn ' s goal was threat- ened. And a pretty good Auburn line kept the Eagle running attack from clicking for more than two or three plays in a row. Auburn scored in the second period. The Eagles drove deep on Ananis ' fine running. O ' Rourke faded, passed but Cheatham intercepted on his twenty- six and raced to a touchdown. Except for a diving clutch just as he inter- cepted the pass, the Auburn star was untouched. McGowen converted. The Tigers clung to their lead as time after time the Eagle attack sputtered and stalled. Then with four minutes Pai GENE IS SET FOR MR. DEAL ■•oi:r left to play, the long awaited yet un- expected blowoff came. The Eagles were back on their own eighteen and zing went the strings to the Leahy bag of tricks. Maznicki ' s fine running, O ' Rourke ' s perfect passes and Davis ' terrific line smash climaxing the drive gave the Eagles six points. Frank Maznicki con- verted the deadlocking point. Two minutes left. Ananis substituted for Maznicki. Auburn received the kickoff, lost the ball immediately and big Vito ripped off thirty yards to midfield. Harrison was interfered with on an O ' Rourke pass and then Vito caught a short alley pass to tumble over the goal line for the win. Even with only a half minute left the charging Eagles spearheaded by O ' Rourke nearly scored again. A very nice victory. FAULK GETS ONE VITO ON HIS PET PLAY O e t r o ■ t Gus Dorais never sent a team on to any gridiron illy prepared. And the terrific battle that the white clad Titans put up in the Motor City engagement with the soaring Eagles, upheld his reputation. From the Detroit side of the tracks, it was the third hard luck tussle to lose. From the Boston College side, it was a great game to win as the 20-13 score points out. Vito Ananis heroed again, scoring twice, and Gene Goodreault consoli- dated his claims to Ail-American choice by snatching an all important touchdown pass. Vito smashed the middle of the stubborn Titan line for the initial score and an early Eagle lead in the first period. Lukachik con- verted as per his custom. Detroit passed the Bostons foolish and scored quickly with McLaughlin, TOM POWERS I ' LL BET IT ' S VITO ON THE BOTTOM soph star ball carrier, carrying for the touchdown at the beginning of the second period. Pegan failed to garner the point. A poor Titan punt gave O ' - Rourke a chance to pass to Goodreault for the second Eagle tally. Fourteen yards over all in the air and a perfect completion by Gene. Dorais ' boys whisked back to the tying point via air. Groth, another soph speed merchant, scoring and Hayes booted the placement. The last two periods were the wildest any crowd ever witnessed, fumbles, near touch- downs, interceptions and the air filled with passes. The O ' Rourke, however, clicked to Ananis for the winner and Big John Yauckoes saved the game in the last seconds by batting down a touchdown pass on the goal line. ASST. COACH JOE McARDLE SCHWOTZEH HAS HIS ARM AROUND A TITAN AS HAYF3 CONVERTS GEORGE RYAN Boston It was a fine, sunshiny day, and the Bostons played the Bostons for the city title. And as always t he Bostons won. It never fails to happen. And it ' s a mo- ral certainty that it never will. The only part of the game which wasn ' t exactly according to the script was the tremendous performance of Vito Ana- nis. Vito proved himself the top-notch back in Eastern football by scoring every solitary point for Boston Col- lege. He also scored every point that day since the Boston University club never did pick up and go. The Terriers put up a stubborn line defense and went all out in an attempt to snatch the climax game of their schedule from the fire. But their vaunted passing attack never clicked, their running game made no head- way, and their Hanley trick plays weren ' t quite as tricky as in past years. THE PERFECT PLAY The Eagles on the other hand smashed and smashed at the Terrier line, seeming content to hold back anything fancy for the expected two tough contests still to be played. Early in the first period, Ananis recovered a Terrier fumble. Pete Cignetti blasted twenty-two yards on a buck. Ananis dittoed for eight and then skirted end for the touchdown. The rest of the half was conser- vatively played until the last few sec- onds. O ' Rourke came in and passed from his own 45 to B.U ' s 4 to Vito in the famous deep pass. Ananis went over untouched. The final score occurred late in the last period after a drab half. Cignetti and O ' Rourke alternated from midfield. Ananis then smacked the center of the Terrier wall for fifteen yards and his third touchdown. Vito dropkicked the point. ASS ' T. COACH JOHN DRUZE THE SCARLET GOES NOWHERE ■Kansas State DAVE LUCEY After scaring the living daylights out of Missouri, Oklahoma and Ne- braska, three topnotchers from the Big Six, Kansas State ' s mighty machine rolled onto the Fenway Park sod to up- hold western prestige against Boston College. When the slim crowd left, the cold weather had grown colder and dusk had wrapped up the bitter after- noon, there were a vast collection of widely scattered nuts and bolts left on the hard sod. The Eagles wiped up the terrain with the westerners. It was a personal triumph for O ' Rourke, Toczy- lowski, Ananis and Lightnin ' Lou Montgomery. Tocz completed two touchdown passes in the first quarter to start the stampede. Charlie O ' Rourke perfectly threw each. Vito Ananis bashed out the third score with O ' Rourke adding the point. In the second half the much WHERE TO NOW, VITO? used and highly perfected deep pass worked from O ' Rourke to Ananis and score number four had been rung up. At this point Coach Leahy withdrew the first backfield, including Ananis, evidently to keep the score down. But in came Brockton Lou Montgomery. The colored flashback dazzled the Wildcats with his amazing speed and shiftiness on two sparkling touchdown jaunts right through the middle of the K State secondary. The first was twelve yards through left guard and the second eighteen yards on a spot pass from Jauron and a little fancy foot- work. An eighty yard Kansas march climaxed by a Fair to Munzer pass scored six points for Coach Wes Fry with seconds left in the ball game. Nichols kicked the point. That ' s all, ex- cept the recorded score B. C. 38, K. S. 7. REV. PATRICK H. COLLINS, S.J. Faculty Director of Athletics IITTERBUGGIN ' CHARLIE CAPTAIN ERNIE SCHWOTZER ■1 o 1 Cross The biggest day of them all arrived and as on all big days, Jupe Pluvius backed over the traces. Rain threat- ened all day and a California fog dripped all over the city up till game time. But 41,000 fans jammed into Fen- way Park and witnessed through snow, rain and dampness the best game of an exciting season. There is no possible way to describe the star studded plays and players without filling up more space than this large book presents. But there were plays that stood out head and shoul- ders above any plays of the season. Gene Goodreault ' s tackle behind the goal line of Charlie O ' Rourke which saved, in all probability, Boston College from a disaster; Vito Ananis ' tremendous completion of the climac- tic deep pass from Charlie O ' Rourke which definitely set the stage for the first touchdown; Charlie O ' Rourke ' s 70 CHARLIE FAKES A BUCK BEFORE GOING AROUND END C o 1 1 o si e yard quick kick on the first Eagle play of the game which dissolved Mali- no wski ' s famed kicking superiority; Hank Toczylowski ' s bone crushing tackle of Saba on the flanker play; Al Morro ' s pick him up and throw him down tackle of Hank Giardi; Pete Cig- netti ' s line lifting three yard touch- down plunge through what was in ef- fect an eleven man Purple frontier; the terrific play of the first two Gothic Block lines; Vito Ananis ' charges around end and through the line; Har- rison ' s great end play complimenting that of Gene Goodreault on the other side; Ernie Schwotzer ' s kick block and recovery for the touchdown; Luka- chik ' s two perfect place kicks. And all these are just half of the B. C. fine plays. And remember that there was another team on the field playing just as well until the last quarter. The 14-0 score satisfied us all. MORRO FREE RIDES GIARDI CIGNETTI BUSTS THROUGH FOR TOUCHDOWN PETE CIGNETTI € 1 e m son The Bowl bid was expected after a season of nine wins and one loss and it came. The Dallas Cotton Bowl asked Frank Leahy ' s Eagles to get out their football togs and represent the East against Jess Neely ' s Clemson Tigers. Several thousand rooters from New England accompanied the team. A snarling Tiger team penetrated Boston College territory just exactly twice. Once early in the first period and again in a 60 yard countermarch to score its six points for a victory. Chuck Timmons gained exactly half of the yardage with a 12 yard Banks Mc- Fadden run and an 18 yard McFad- den-Jackson pass sandwiched in the middle. Timmons carried for the score. On the other side of the ledger, Bos- ton College rolled all of the fight shown against Auburn, Detroit and CHUCK TIMMONS SMASHES EAGLE LINE C o 1 1 e 8l e Holy Cross into one dynamic bundle, exploded it and still couldn ' t quite blow the last Tiger out of the picture for a payoff score. O ' Rourke was terrific at all times and took more concentrated punish- ment in one afternoon than any indi- vidual back in Eagle history. He set up the Maroon and Gold field goal with a thirty yard punt runback to Clemson ' s 11. Line plays didn ' t click and Luka- chik pumped three points through the uprights for the Boston College score. Dick Harrison and Pete Cignetti wrote blazing pages into the closing chapter of their college football ca- reers. Dick gave everything in des- perate tries for long touchdown passes. Pete victimized Bryant and Timmons four times by recovering fumbles or forcing them. BANKS McFADDEN mm VITO OFF FOR 14 YARDS e:x. LS Trip COACH JOHN A. KELLEY a r s i t Perhaps the football season was a harbinger but you could feel Cham- pionship in the air every time hockey was mentioned. Seniors were going around with the outlook that their final year was going to be at least a top- notch athletic year. Ralph Dougherty, characterized by Coach Kelley as a fine team player and leader, was elected captain of a squad composed mainly of sophomore stars. The opening scrimmages pointed to Bill Sweeney of ' 40 as the choice of the goalie squad. The rest of the team was slated to be composed of four sophomores and one junior. The vet- eran Dougherty was to anchor the ef- forts of a second rookie line with his skill and ice-savvy. The opener was the annual Prince- ton game at Hobey Baker Rink. Bill NEW ENGLAND INTERCOLLEGIATE LEAGUE CHAMPIONS First Row — Left to Right: Robinson, Maguire. Capt. Dougherty. Cuenin. Dumond. Boudreau, Sharkey, Sweeney. Second Row — Leit to Right: Coach Kelley, Powers, Sullivon, Dowd, Houle, Pryor, Mee, Chaisson, Buckley, Manager Laverty. n o c k o Sweeney started his first college game and Ray Chaisson centered Al Du- mond and Johnny Pryor in the varsity line — Bob Mee and Larry Houle, two so phomores paired at the points. The Eagles showed Coach Vaughan of Princeton the fastest college line he had ever witnessed. He raved over them but inexperience and lack of balance behind that first trio cost the Maroon and Gold a victory. Sweeney received quite a baptism of fire and the final score 9-5 for the Tigers was the closest in the recent history of the series. Coach Kelley tried out Vin Robinson, CAPTAIN RALPH DOUGHERTY a sophomore goalie, against M.I.T. Vin showed plenty of courage and turned in a fine win against the close-check- ing Engineers. He encored against a weak hitting Cornell in a lop-sided vic- tory. The score 24-1 was the largest in the memory of the oldest graduate. Dartmouth slipped over a 4-3 win the following day in an outdoor contest. In this contest Ralph Dougherty was banged to the ice and suffered a back strain which bothered his ordinarily fine play for the rest of the season. Mc- Gill beat Les Eagles in the second home game of the season. That game was attended by not more than fifty fans but they saw plenty of high cali- ber hockey as the Eagle Chaisson- McGILL FACE OFF PRYOR WORKS HARD Dumond-Pryor line outsmarted and outskated the Canadiens. But with the score even up till the halfway mark of the final period their legs gave out and the McGill manpower started to tell. Six quick goals gave McGill a 9-3 vic- tory. Northeastern came next and in the wildest game of the league season succumbed to the Eagle power 11-3. The defending titlists, Boston Univer- sity, coached by Wayland Vaughan next went down to even more ignoble defeat 12-3. This game marked the ap- pearance of Hugh Sharkey, another sophomore, in his first full game at goal. He was not displaced for the rest of the season and turned in some fine games. A trip to Army netted a tie with an exceptionally strong West Point con- tingent. Back home and Northeastern was vanquished again in another lop- sided game. A trip to Maine gave a DUMOND SINKS ONE AGAINST B. U. Colby victory and a St. Dom defeat in a thrilling encounter. Two New Hamp- shire victories followed and Boston College sat on top of the New England Intercollegiate League. Ray Chaisson led the college scorers and the Eagle first line was head and shoulders above all comers. Williams lost to the Eagles and the game listed as that for the champion- ship of the East came up. But tragedy stalked the trip to Dart- mouth, the cars transporting the team to Hanover crashed a bus, the squad was shaken up, Wally Cuenin, Ralph Dougherty and Johnny Pryor were in- jured. Needless to say Dartmouth won against an undermanned and bruised Maroon and Gold standard bearer. From there on in Colby, B. U. and M. I. T. fell in an exciting trio of games and Boston College was crowned New England Intercollegiate Hockey League Champion. RED ELLIOTT WORKING ON RAY ACTION BEHIND THE TERRIER NET COACH JACK RYDER % a r s i t y Apparently in line with the fine ath- letic year witnessed by the Class of ' 40, a top notch group of track and field stars greeted Coach Jack Ryder at the opening of track practice. Cap- tain Bill Gilligan led a group of field performers second to none in Eastern Intercollegiate circles. On the running side of the ledger, Joe Shea, Charlie Green and Bill Harkins, three proven veterans, anchored the efforts of a brilliant group of younger athletes. The long fall sessions brought forth a top notch mile quartet for the big indoor meets. When the keen competi- tion for places had been finished the veteran sprinter and quarter miler, Charlie Green, was named lead-off man. Two sophomore starlets, Johnny Ballantine from Roslindale, the home of Benny Hines and Bill Mulachy, and TRACK SQUAD V a c k Bill Riley from Jamaica Plain and a junior, Bill Dowd, completed the quartet. The last named, Bill Dowd, promises to be one of the greatest quarter milers in recent Eagle history. He is strictly a product of Coach Ryder ' s skill and training. He has puttered with the hur- dles and his speed and stamina makes him a standout in the lows. He ' ll win his share of points in the 220-lows against outdoor opposition. The mile quartet was the only relay unit fielded by Jack Ryder in the in- door meets and it had a fine season. Rhode Island State was licked. Ford- ham edged the Eagles in a terrific, close battle in the fine time of 3:22.2. Colgate and Villanova were shel- lacked. In the feature event at the Seton Hall Meet, the flying Eagles -l,- CAPTAIN BILL GILLIGAN SETON HALL MILE RELAY CHAMPS Left to Right: Ballanline. Riley. Dowd, Green MANAGER PAUL TONDORF snatched a beautiful trophy by beat- ing Seton Hall and Villanova. And in the big race of the indoor season the Eagles just missed engineering the up- set of the year against Holy Cross ' na- tionally famed foursome. Charlie Green never licked as a leadoff man all season, held McShane even; Bill Dowd gained a yard on Blanchfield; Bill Riley hung on to Johnny Wallace as he vainly tried to kick into a lead; and in the anchor leg the fast finishing Ballantine let Tom Cunningham set the pace and then battled valiantly all of the last lap down to a whirlwind finish which just failed to nip the flying Crusader. The rest of the indoor season was highlighted only by Gil Walker ' s fine sprinting. The colored freshman flash was the sensation of the track world. He beat among others, Sam Stoller, Finish of B.A.A. Dash Michigan ' s great sprinter and Bob Mc- Glone, Holy Cross ' s varsity star. Ed Swenson, the senior shot putter, has rounded into fine shape and al- though he missed a place in the indoor I.C.4-A ' s, he figures to do much better in their outdoor counterpart. He, Bill Gilligan and Joe Zabilski give the Eagles a 1-2-3 punch in the shot which can ' t be broken in dual competition. Zabilski, Al Morro and Vito Ananis are a similar combine in the hammer throw. The discus features Al Morro. This sophomore football star was the finest discus thrower in national inter- scholastic circles two springs ago. With plenty of spring practice, Al probably will place in the first two at the l.C. ' s and we wouldn ' t be a bit sur- prised to see Capt. Bill Gilligan offer all the competition for the top rung. The New England title at least is at their mercy. ED SWENSON Four ol Nexl Year ' s Star Joe Zabilski is alone in the javelin field and can beat all comers in dual competition. Joe may take a turn at pole vaulting if the Eagles are forced to do without Ev Noonan ' s services. Ev has placed in every Cross meet since freshman and done very well whenever the chips were down. But a recent illness has kept him from practice. Ralph Ryan is an above par high jumper and figures to be about the best in New England this spring. John Ballantine and Ad Kissel in the broad jump round out the field squad. On the running side, Bill Harkins, who ran such sensational two and three mile races last spring and sum- mer and had been resting over the fall and winter, will be in top notch con- dition for a fine season. Joe Shea will run some fine miles and half miles and may be just the GERRY RUSSELL Cunningham Holding On Desperately to Beat Ballantine man Coach Jack Ryder can use to re- juvenate his fading reputation for de- veloping half mile stars. Lately Jack has had some better than average shorter distance men. Buck Buckley, Elmer Ross, Gerry Russell and Ed Bourgeault will back Shea in these distances or perhaps support Johnny Ballantine in the quarter mile. Bill Riley will do the sprinting along with Charlie Green if the latter has time to spare from his baseball duties. Johnny McNeil and Bill Dowd will take care of the hurdling and may give Holy Cross ' Gilsen and Tufts ' Dugger something to think about. They ' re set for a fine season and but for the early Sub Turri deadline, it could be recorded here. All the fine meets arranged by Manager Paul Ton- dorf will be big victories for the Eagles. CHARLIE GREEN A Great Purple Quartet When Coach Fred Maguire and Captain Frank Burns talked things over at the start of the current base- ball season, they found that they had an untried pitching staff but a fielding and batting unit composed almost en- tirely of veterans. And they were a sure fielding, hard hitting group of veterans at that. At the vital catching spot re-ap- peared Jim Byrne, a hard hitting, bullet armed senior. He was unavail- able last spring after playing sensa- tionally in his sophomore year. Ed Sawyer, a flawless fielder and fair hitter with a year of regular play be- hind him was back at first base. Bobby Cromwell, Frank Burns ' in- COACH FRED MAGUIRE iwawu ' s.W F--- gF ' 02 QJi i w ■ ' -t :fMX: mn: l First Row — 1. to r.: McGovern, McGrath, Leary, Cromwel l, Capt. Burns, Martin, Green, Leahy.

Fourth Row — Maguire, Manzo, Kerrivan, Davis. IBasoball separable sidekick, the finest fielding second baseman in college baseball and a very dependable batter, was back stamping around the keystone sack. Then came two holes in the vet- eran array. Captain Tom Palumbo and Norm Pilote were gone and there was a very large gap at short and third. So Coach Maguire sent out a hurry call. Charlie Green came over from the track squad; Joe Maguire from the hockey squad; Jackie Callahan, who saw plenty of action at the end of last spring, settled down for a siege and Tom Dawson, a soph with a fine rec- ord, decided to throw his glove into the fray. MANAGER TED HEASLIP Captain Burns Scores Winning Run Against Rams BOBBIE CROMWELL Two of the outfield posts were set with the left handed Brad Martin ready for heavy hitting duty and Cap- tain Burns dittoing. Brad had played varsity ball for the baseballers ever since Chet Gladchuk wound his big hands around the pivot post on the football team. Brad used to play cen- ter. He is a left handed batter and one of the best in college circles. Captain Frank Burns is the work horse of the club. He played first base in Sophomore, hit about .400. In Junior Sawyer came up and Frank went to right field. When Byrne became in- eligible, Frank filled the gap behind the plate while bashing out some of the longest blows the surprised oppos- ing pitchers ever saw. This year nat- urally with his terrific power Capt. Burns is due to bat cleanup and an- chor the outfield. Frank Davis from the football squad, Joe McLaughlin and Bob Harris are shooting for the open post. They are evenly matched in the field and at bat the first two have an edge. Joe Hager- ty, a sophomore, is conceded a chance Two Football Stars Come Out for Baseball to press Ed Sawyer at first base while Bob Sliney and Ed McDonald have the roles of Jim Byrne ' s understudies. In the pitching staff Fred Leahy stands alone as a collegiate veteran. Connie McGrath and Bob McGovern have seen some service in intercollegi- ate contests. Lefty Leary, Joe Manzo, Ronnie Corbett, John Yauchoes, Dave White and John Sullivan are all press- ing for the role of starting pitcher. All have had experience in summer leag ues, high school, Park League and Cape League and need only a chance to show their wares. The Northeastern opener was called off because of rain and cold. The Huskies were reputedly one of the CAPTAIN FRANK BURNS Hearn Rounding Third lor Lone Fordham Tally hardest hitting clubs in the district but the Maguiremen didn ' t have a chance to disprove the contention. However, May 23rd will see the Eagles visiting the intown collegians and probably the Huskies will be slightly sorry that the subject of their own good hitting had been mentioned at all. Boston College 3 — Fordham 1 Senior Fred Leahy went to the mound for the Eagles in the annual April 19th classic against Fordham ' s Eastern Intercollegiate Champion Rams. And when the last Ram flied out appropriately to Captain Frank Burns in centerfield, Leahy had hurled a three hit one run masterpiece and the Eagles were off to a flying start in the guest of the mythical Intercollegi- ate bunting. Fred was immense after a shaky start. Two walks and two hits netted the Rams a run in the first frame. From there on in Leahy parsimoniously handed out one hit, three walks and six strikeouts in eight innings. He was never in trouble as the hard hitting If- ' - .i aTi ' - FRED LEAHY Maroon club vainly tried to add vic- tory number four to their spring col- lection. Ed Alex, a giant sophomore eccen- tric, pitched for the New Yorkers and except for two lapses matched Leahy goose egg for goose egg. One lapse on the part of his catcher. Bill Kry- wicki, who errored twice on the same play cost the big blond two runs in the first inning. And in the second inning Ed threw wild to first to set up the third counter. After these two innings, how- ever, the sophomore star had the game completely under control. He gave one hit per inning and nothing else not even a walk. The game started right on the dot of BULLET BYRNE Byrne Singles to Center BRAD MARTIN three and the first inning ended exact- ly twenty-five minutes later. Practical- ly all the action was concentrated in that stretch. Jackie Hearn, star Ram shortstop singled to left to open the game. Mc- Gurk attempting to sacrifice couldn ' t find a good ball and walked, placing men on first and second. Pat Petrino, hard hitting first sacker, slapped a beautiful single to dead left scoring Hearn with what proved to be the only Maroon run. Leahy cut off the throw from Davis to hold McGurk on second. Principe, the Ram ' s heavy sticker, fouled off a Leahy fast one and Bullet Byrne chased it to make a sensational catch. Jim Blumenstock, All-American half- back and sophomore sensation, broke his back on a Leahy curve and topped it down to Jackie Callahan. Jackie had no play except at first and he threw the speedy Blumenstock out by sev- eral feet. Both runners advanced. Leahy then curve balled Gomez, the Maroon key stone sacker to death and so notched his first strikeout of the season. LEFTY LEARY ■f- - The Eagles came right back in their half of the inning. Bobby Cromwell tagged one right into center field for a single. Ed Sawyer with the hit and run on popped a high infield fly. Kry- wicki went after it and the wind drifted it just out of his hands near the pitcher ' s mound. Bill pounced on it and rifled the ball to second to catch Cromwell but the throw was bad and Bobby hooked the bag safely. Brad Martin batting third banged an Alex pitch solidly to left but right into Dillon ' s hands. Both runners held their base. And up came Capt. Burns. Frank slapped a harsh grounder down the third-base line. Blumenstock made a fine play and rifled the ball to Gomez CHARLIE GREEN Byrne Safe at Third CONNIE McGRATH to force Sawyer. But cagey Ed knocked Gomez off balance and Burns beat the peg to first. With two away and Davis up, the Eagles pulled a very hoary play out of the books. Maguire sent Burns down on this pitch. Krywicki off guard pegged to Hearn covering the bag but Frank did a perfect fade away slide and beat the play while Cromwell scampered across the plate with the tying run. Hearn was spiked on the play and took time out for repairs. Davis then decided to take a hand. He lined a nice single to right field to score Burns all the way from second. Callahan flied to Dillon to close the in- ning. The Rams went down one, two, three in the first of the second and the Eagles polished off the scoring in their half. Bullet Byrne singled to left to open and went to second on a wild pitch. Young Tom Dawson, who played sensationally in the field, hit one back at the pitcher Alex. Alex BOB McGOVERN threw into the dirt and Dawson was safe. Fred Leahy hit down to the pitcher and Alex almost threw it away again, but he got Dawson at second while Byrne was safe at third and Leahy at first. Cromwell hit slowly to Gomez. Byrne scored while Gomez threw out Bobby at first. Sawyer flied to Principe to end the inning and scor- ing for the day. The season looks like a success with Holy Cross furnishing the climax. But Leahy beat them once last series as the Eagles came out victorious and he looks to be good enough to repeat. JOHN SULLIVAN Byrne Scores Third Run Against Maroon a r s i t In the annual Fall Tournament, Cap- tain Elmore Campbell, stocky, stubby, red headed tennis star, found himself a squad which promised to bring the leading minor sport out on top of the heap for the ' 40 spring season. Gerry Converse was named mana- ger of the squad and immediately sought out about thirty odd southern colleges for tennis matches to be played during the southern trip. But the earliness of the vacation caused all but four to refuse. A skeleton squad composed of Capt. Campbell, Manager Converse, Bill Powers, Gene Sullivan and Charley Robichaud travelled south March 21st. The first encounter was with Loyola College at Baltimore. With no previ- ous practice sessions the Eagles fig- CAPTAIN ELMORE CAMPBELL Left to Right: Captain Campbell, Sullivan, Powers, Converse, O ' Callaghan, Robichaud. M e n n 1 s ured to lose and they did. North Caro- hna State with its top notch tennis squad steam-rollered the travelling Eagles as they started to get the feel of the outdoor courts. The Tarheels invariably have one of the finest teams in the American college tennis. When the Campbells arrived at Wake Forest, a snowstorm greeted them and also an indoor court. The quick change from outdoor to indoor tennis helped not at all and another deieat was forced on the unwilling Eagles. ' ' . MANAGER CONVERSE But the cruelest blow fell when Clemson came onto the courts with fire in their eyes and plenty of practice under their belts. The Tigers edged the improving but still underpar Maroon and Golds and home they came. Nine matches are scheduled for the regular spring season and it is quite possible that the only defeat in the nine will be at the hands of formidable Lowell Textile. N.Y.U., Rhode Island State, Boston University, Bates, Suffolk and Fordham are all ticketed for losses. BILL POWERS CAPTAIN RAFFERTY W i w mmty Captain Pat Raff erty has surrounded himself with three top notch amateur golfers for the team ' s spring cam- paign. Sheehy, larrobino and Brooks are three of the best young golfers in Massachusetts and with Captain Pat, intend to make a big splash in the in- tercollegiate championships and the spring matches. During the Easter vacation, the golfers hit the southern trail without even a suggestion of a practice round. Newport News conquered the Eagles first. Then William and Mary tried but the Eagle foursome ' s superior ability, even without practice, won out. Then a long trip to Davidson and Catauba resulted in two defeats on Left to Right: Captain Rafierty, Sheehy, Brooks, larrobino Oolf soggy courses in poor shape because of the unusually severe southern winter. The next match was with the University of Virginia which listed the state amateur champ on its roster. This club was the best in the south met by the Eagles and the loss was no dis- honor. Hampden-Sydney won the next match, then the Rafferty men settled down. They trounced George Wash- ington and Seton Hall defaulted. JOHN lARROBINO Sheehy showed the finest all around game of the quartet during the trip and the Eagle junior with Capt. Raf- ferty will be shooting for both the indi- vidual intercollegiate and the state amateur crowns. The late spring schedule has Holy Cross, Worcester Tech and Boston Uni- versity listed. The strongest of the three naturally is Holy Cross but even the Purple will be no match for the Ma- roon and Gold divot diggers. Three more victories will be added to the black side of the ledger. RILEY and GAI The Fencing Team entered a new- phase of its existence with the advent of the ' 39- ' 40 scholastic year. In the tenth year of its hfe, the team was, for the first time, to compete without a coach. Of course Captain Hector Gai would tutor his charges but no one could expect the team to do more than put up a hard fight and win a few moral victories. But Roger Baker, one of the out- standing amateur fencers in the East, transferred from Seton Hall College. He, Gai and Leo Riley then proceeded to whip into shape a club which had the most successful season ever ex- perienced by any fencing unit in the whole decade. Baker taught the fine points of sabre play while Captain Gai coached on foil and epee. M. I. T. ' s swordsmen FENCING SQUAD Leit to Right: Twomey, Alman, Riley, Capt. Gai, Nary, Baker, Struzziero F e nc I n sf conquered the Eagles epees in the opening match but from there on the slashing blades of the Maroon and Golds were practically unbeatable. The second match finished in a tie with the B. U. parriers. Bowdoin suc- cumbed twice, not even coming close to the Eagles. Norwich put up a ter- rific battle before losing 12 to 10. Brown and Amherst edged the Gai coached squad. Boston University dropped the rubber encounter and the Maroon and Gold closed the season with a fine victory over Tufts. It was a great year and Captain-elect Baker will lead a good squad of veterans next year in Tom Nary, Ralph Struzzi- ero, Jim Kiely and Ralph Alman. Man- ager Fred O ' Hara deserves plenty of credit for the fine schedule obtained for the coachless club. MANAGER O ' HARA Two Good Reasons ior a Great Season Yaclit Club The Boston College Yacht Club evolved with the class of 1940. The present senior members of the organ- ization founded, nursed and fathered the present day group. Tom Ford and Tom Glennon, two ex- perienced sailors, organized the Yachf Club back in sophomore and after two in and out seasons, the yachtsmen suc- ceeded in stirring up enough interest and enough ability to make the club a top notcher. M. I. T. has loaned Boston College its fine facilities and the use of its 40 boat dinghy fleet although, because of the thinness of the Yacht Club treasury, Boston College is not a member of the New England Intercollegiate Yacht Racing Association. But this body runs non-member re- gattas, races in which the first three non-members are invited to compete against the member clubs in the cham- pionship regattas. This past fall in the New England eliminations for the Boston Dinghy Cup the two Eagle crews composed of Commodore Glennon and Bill Kiniry; Tom Ford and John Burggraf, finished second beating H. C, N. H. State, R. I., Middlebury and Bowdoin. So they were invited to compete in the cham- pionship section. The Charles River kicked up how- ever on the big day and the matches developed into drifting races. The Eagle crews had poor luck and didn ' t win the cup. The elimination spring regatta for non-members is to be held at Brown University and the first three will com- pete in the spring championships in May. The Maroon and Gold seem as- sured of a place and a fine chance to win the cup. Squad: Burggraf, Ford, Commodore Glennon, Vinburg, Kiniry Scenes Fvom Four Yoavs The original purpose of this page was to summarize the athletic history of a class. There are a lot of sports high lights of the last four years which could be run over boringly. But all of us were there. We all remember the best games, the toughest defeats, the exciting trips to an opponent ' s bailiwick, the great in- dividual performances and the smash- ing victories. They ' re recorded in our memories. But there were performances and athletes which will never be recorded except here. And each was worthy of remembrance. Back in freshman, re- member Dick Powers. It was the night of one of the big indoor meets. The Frosh mile relay was meeting Holy Cross, Harvard and several others. It was nearly time for the race to start. But the Eaglets were lacking a man. Coach Ryder looking around, stumbled over Dick Powers in the lobby. H e got him into a suit. Then without a speck of real practise, Dick anchored the relay team running against Lightbody of Harvard and Wallace of Holy Cross. For a race where sheer guts counted and showed, that was it. The crowd didn ' t know the circumstances. And there was Dick hanging on grimly, with tortured, twisted features, to two of the fastest quarter-milers in the East in a losing battle. Giving everything he had. He deserved a letter for that effort. He has one in his heart with a big ' For Boston ' on it. Then there was another fellow with guts. Gerry Russell was his name. The best he ever did in college competition was battle his heart out on losing two mile relay teams and ' B ' mile relay quartets. In high school and prep school, he was the Leshe MacMitchell of his time. But his stomach never gave him a square deal in college. Yet he never quit. Every day found him in there fighting. Leo Logue rounded out the trio. Four Leo Logues could be put in Chet Glad- chuk ' s pants if you considered size alone. But before Chet came along, Leo beat out fellows twice his size for the pivot job on the varsity eleven. For one whole year, Gil Dobie probably said a big prayer of thanks for Leo. He wore his football jersey almost d la Jimmy Foxx, made nine-tenths of the tackles, intercepted half the passes, fought and sparked a sometimes lackadaisical team to spectacular feats during that whole year. It was an iron man ' s job and Leo was the iron man. Joe Grandfield.

To his family, Guillaume is a Joie forever, but to his friend here on the Heights, he is just plain Golden Boy. Starting inaus- piciously as class beadle in Freshman year, he quickly ad- vanced in political circles by virtue of his gracious smile and friendly grip. His next move was into the Dean ' s office. Using it as his campaign headquarters, he spread his subtle propaganda under the guise of daily notices placed on the bulletin boards. Golden haired, golden voiced and Golden Keyed, the success of his career was now a golden certainty. In this, his last golden year, our lunchroom Lomasney triumphed over the Powers that were, and emerged with the class presidency in his golden grasp. We know not what the golden future holds in store for Guill, but even when the gold has turned to silver, we will love him just the same. CLASS OF JOSEPH O. JOSEPH R. F. D. Constant 1, 2, 3, 4; Indian Club 4; Tank Team 1, 2, 3, 4; 920 Club 4. Quiet, of a profoundly serious nature, Joseph has won for himself the famous Mulcahy award, emblematic of outstanding achieve- ment in extra-curricular activities. This year, Joseph, as he is known to the registrar, or just plain Joseph, as he is known to his friends, was presented the trophy, after he had submitted his musical masterpiece dedicated to Mulcahy, entitled — All hail Maroon and Goldfish. He has not however limited himself to things musical, for he also sings. His retiring nature, and aver- sion to the bright lights, have earned him the title of Kermit the Hermit, or the Misogynist of the Heights. When asked about his plans for the future, Joseph replied — I think I ' ll go into monkey business. NINETEEN-FORTY V- -i i] DEDWOOD S. DANDY 4 Kindling Wood, Mass. 920 Club; Football Pool 1, 2, 3, 4; Squash 1, 2, 3, 4; Anti-vivisection Society IVz. Dedwood, our maudlin Romeo, has brought Boston College into the limelight many times by virtue of his dramatic ability. In that Hollywood masterpiece, The Awful Truth, he played the part, Awful, while his photogenic features inspired the com- position of Margin for Error. His theatrical ability was never more evident than in Tobacco Road, where as background man, he assumed the role of six miles of bad road, at times drop- ping out of character long enough to adopt the smoky role of a Havana filler. However, his activities are not confined merely to dramatics, for as a coloratura soprano in the Glee Club, he has often thrilled audiences with his four-part renditions of Quartet from Rigoletto, The Flea, and the Beagle Hunt Club Chorus by Beethoven. To his classmates here on the Heights, he was al- ways affectionately known as just Dandy. CLASS OF CUCHULAIN SEAN PADRAIG O ' CRONIN, PH.B. 1940a Blue Hill Avenue, Mattapan, Mass. Ups and Downs 1, 2, 3, 4; Brass Ball 3, 4. Sanskrit Academy 0: Von Walde-Waldegg Expedition (unsuccessful). Quiet, deeply religious and scholarly, O ' Cronin is an obscure, yet important cog in the educational machine at University Heights. Spending the greater part of his school hours in the dust of the library stacks, he is the perfect example of humble learn- ing. Spurning the fame and popularity that is rightfully his by virtue of his baronutcy and oildom, Sean has devoted his every hour to the manufacture of the mouse-trap that will bring the world to his door. Padraig expects to become a Carmelite Friar upon graduation. He embraces this living death with the re- strained ardor of a Puritanical martyr. From your bare cell, oh O ' Cronin, ora pro nobis in vitam sempiternam, or literally trans- lated, take two and hit to center, Cuchulain. NINETEEN-FORTY I (mL lUnA: CImI- A CHASE OVER THE A.B. COURSE Organized in an attempt to create a bitter understanding be- tween the student body and the faculty, the Beagle Hunt Club is today preeminent among student societies in the college. Since it was first founded by P. Bakunin Tondorf, Grand Master by virtue of the fact that he received no points in extracurricular activities, the accolade of membership has become the most zealously sought honor which undergraduates can achieve. The beautiful clubhouse, located in S-2, is surrounded by spacious lawns, trees, flowers and beagles. Hot and cold run- ning water, swinging doors on the kennels, and all other modern conveniences are found in the luxuriously appointed lounge room. Billy Frazier, who is the club ' s uniformed attendant, and clean-up man for the Beagle nine, is known far and wide for his wit and stirrup cups. The outstanding events of the Beagle season were the annual invitation hunts over the A.B. course (non-honors), followed by the Beagle ' s Ball which was held in the club- house from 9-1. U a i OUb STILL BREWING The Explorers Club is one of the most exclusive organizations in the college, although it bars none, provided the necessary qualifications are possessed. To be a member of the club, one must be a confirmed hypochondriac. In its charter which is in- scribed on the wing of the barfly, the mascot of the club, a hypo- chondriac is defined as one who is always ailing. The club came into existence on the morning of May 6th, 1939, when a group of Juniors, fresh released from their prom, and hampered by the one o ' clock law, was looking for a place to ail in peace. When through mutual cooperation they were able to comfort their yearnings, they decided to really beer down and establish a club whose purpose would be to help all who might find themselves in parallel precarious predicaments. Through the hard work of the charter members, this club has flourished and now is one of the lager organizations of the cam- pus. They have adopted nasal red as their color, and have chosen an original tune as their theme song, O, to be a jailbird and always behind bars. When the president of the club was asked about his plans after graduation, he assumed a rye face, and answered in a cordiale way Musk ah tell? THE HURLEY TEAM HAS SPRING PRACTICE IN A LATE SNOW STORM One of the noblest and most respected sports at Boston Col- lege is the royal Celtic game of Hurley. Invented during the reign of Cuchullain O ' Cronin, who was at the time High King of Erin, by a Swede whose name, oddly enough was Hurley, it was introduced to Boston College by its great All-Gaelic athlete, Jan O ' Kozlowski. Starting from humble beginnings, it has become the chief diversion of the weary student. During the past year, the varsity team, captained by that stal- wart Kerryman, Phadrig O ' Cignetti, has been successful in main- taining an unblemished record which may be traced back to the days of the Druids. Coached by one O ' Johnny, a refugee from the Palmer House, O ' Cignetti and his squad, O ' Robertie, O ' Zona, O ' Pestana, O ' Josephs, O ' Sinofsky, O ' Phillips, O ' Bourget, O ' Char- bonneau, O ' deBrule and O ' Gai, have pioneered an entirely new system of play. With the exclusive use of the Western Grip, in which one hand is placed around the opponent ' s throat, and the other is used to swing the shillelagh, the team has been invin- cible. In its key match with Sawtooth Normal, the Green Eagles dis- played the finest exhibition of stamina and endurance ever to be seen in Greater Newton Intercollegiate League competition. In the first chukker alone, six Sawteeth were brushed off with grace and precision. Experts compared the music of O ' Cignetti ' s personal lead-lined hurley stick to the delicacy and tenderness of Mendelssohn ' s Boilermaker Symphony. Graduation will remove many prominent quills from the Eagle ' s tail feathers, but with Al O ' Ar- senault and B. Whitfield O ' Robinson as a nucleus, next year ' s squad should be fully as formidable as ?s,,X7 the present machine. M Wi Mm (M i[M ' MXA THE EDITOR WITH TWO OF HIS ADMIRERS Ever on the front page of American Journalism, the Century Chronicle will celebrate its first birthday on June 12th, 1940, when the second issue will make its appearance. Like the cen- tury plant from whose pulp the paper is made, it blossoms but once every hundred years. This time it burgeons forth under the aegis of David L. Duce, the one Longfellow had in mind when he wrote, Hardly a man is now alive who remembers that famous day and year. Precursor and harbinger of the modern tabloid, it set the tone for such daring publications as Vogue, Mademoi- selle, and Glamour. Its visionary editorials were the first to fore- cast the downfall of the bustle, the coming of the Iron Horse, Lou Gehrig, and the eventual happy ending of the Perils of Pauline. A masterpiece of illiteration, peripateia, and catharsis its pun- gent style made it rank. This year ' s issue is no exception. In a recent Gallup Poll, it too was an also rank. . Congratulations are in order for the editor, David L. Duce, Sr.; to the staff, David Jr.; and to the reporters, Davids III, IV, and V. - We, the class of 1940, being of sound mind and unsound future do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament.
