FIRST YEAR--SECTION ONE ELL, another year has passed. About this time of the'year this .2 expression is frequently heard from the average boy of high school tis 'E' ,I Q ' age, who has come to the end of another school year. All his thoughts are centered on another vacation and what his family will do before another school year. Not so with the boy of Cathedral, who has reached a milestone on the path toward Ordination and his goal in life, the priesthood. Looking back over the year and the work in class, we feel that the year has been very well spent, with a fair scholastic record and our ambitions more firmly established. Although the class athletic record was nothing to shout about-we lost three out of three-there was good representation on the court during the year, and some great heavers brought to light. Participating on the court in this, our happy freshman year, were Donlon, Tinao, Simmons, McSpirit, Corrigan, and Dennehy. A baseball team has been organized, with Tinao as captain. We expect to have a good team on the field in a short time. Honors in class scholastic work for the year, in our opinion, would be shared by several, among them Kavanagh, Ballasty, Nosser, Luke McLuke, and Bacig- alupo-of these Kavanagh and Ballasty can readily be called the jug twins, because of their association there. It is believed that their class marks have been greatly improved by their visits to the jug, and also on the long journey to their homes in a foreign land-Garden City. I can proudly say that we have some very distinguished gentlemen in our class. A few of the honors are Lionel Corrigan, Professor Simmons tljounder of the new Backwards English Groupl, Doctor Finnan, ta member of the Backwards English Clubl. So, to start again, we have Hum-m-m Doctor McCarthy, Wizard Kavanagh, Glamour Boy Ballasty, and Pretty Boy Nosser. As our class officers we can thank Messrs. Simmons and Masterson, who fulfilled the responsibilities of president, Neller as vice-president and Holmes as secretary. I think we can thank these fellows for a splendid job in cooling us down. As the greatest worker in our class for the dear old ANNUAL we have Charles t Pretty Boy J Nosser, who scraped up 535. We may as well thank Tinao and Montague who each brought in Sl. There are other fellows in the class who have done their share and I am sure Father Denning and the faculty thank them heartily. I guess every class has a few special subject wizards. A few of the geniuses in our class are Mr. Kavanaghiatin Expert, Mr. Simmons-Music Professor, Mr. Merry-Algebra. Religion has an important part in our schooling and I think this title goes to Mr. Shea. Since I have had the opportunity to Write on this page, I, in the name of IB-l thank the faculty for a swell freshman year and hope for a still better year as a second year man. Well, l'm afraid it is time for me to stop since I am running out of ink, therefore I wish everybody a happy summer vacation. WILLIAM I. COLLINS, '47. CATHEDRAL COLLEGE ANNUAL

We had a great team comprised of Connell, Hentschel, Cun- neen, Foley, Ahearn, Herbert Prather, Reinhart, Lynch, Driscoll, McVeigh and Vitalo. This team though not the victors in the lunior division, gave a good account of themselves in all games and produced a fine impression of true sportsmanship. Competition was the theme in all games we participated. We will now introduce several celebrities of our esteemed class. The butt of many a joke and the originator of many, was Short E , Driscoll. His per- petual companion was the Muscle Man Ray Lauck. Francis Langley was commonly known as Dapper Scholars which include George Gill, Iames Sharp, lames Edward Gotimer should take a bow for their fine job of upholding the class in the field ot Studies. lack Norton with his questions was the scourge of all the professors including Monsignor McHugh.
