The first Merry Christmas ever wished likewise came from heaven. I t was spoken on the very first Christmas morn to the lowly shepherds keeping their lonely watches on the Jndean hillsides. And the angel said to them: Behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy that shall be to all the peopleg for this day is born to you a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. That was the angel's way of saying Merry Christmas! , to the shepherds, and he tells the reason why they should be merry. This reason, for this day is born to you a Saviofu,r, is inseparably linked with the feast and its friendly greeting. ' ' 7 THE ECHO Merry Christmas! In spite of the widespread eyforts being made to de-Christianize Christmas by vainly pretending to trace its origin to pagan times and customs, by flooding the world with picture cards devoid of all religious sentiment and featuring glowing yule-logs, snow-covered hills and dales and sparkling holly sprigs, and by giving over the day and the season entirely to social amusements and unsocial carousals, it must and will rank first, last and always as as Christian feast to the core. Is it not, indeed, the birthday of the Christ, aye, even the feast of Christ's Mass? The very name stamps its unmistakably Christian character. I ' Merry Christmas! The joy which the greeting bespeaks should have source in the soul. The good tidings tell us that this day is born to us a Saviour. So our joy is that of the inner man, but not that only. Out of its very fullness it bubbles over to the outer, physical man, and thereby the whole man is made happy. That is why innocent fun and feasting and even fireworks are strictly in order at the Christmas season. Everybody is privileged to be a child about the crib of Bethlehem. Merry Christmas! We have heard it said, and with truth, that there is no happiness like that which comes from making others happy. Let us, then, make our Infant Lord happy by devoutly hearing Mass-even more than once--on Christ's Mass Day, and loyally receiving into our hearts Him for whom there was no room in the inn, and keeping Him ever enshrined therein by shunning sin and doing good works. Let us also make Him happy in His other Self, the poor, by succoring them in their needs for the sake of the poor Infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a man- ger. A Christmas barren of deeds of charity is unworthy of a follower of that same Infant who later in His life spoke the words, As long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me. Help His least brethren and make Him your bounden debtor. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! This is The Echo's sincere wish to all its contributors, subscribers, advertisers, friends and readers. On this blessedl Christmas morn, When our Saviour meek was born, May He From His loving Heart Choicest gifts to you imparty And throughout the bright New Year Grant you boundless grace and cheer! 8 . THE ECHO - St. Andrew's Day . I Every year St. Andrew's date Brings our boys a happy fete. Powers that be, without delay To their Bishop tribute pay. II Music next begins to flow To the strains that people know. It's a pleasant thing to hear Young folks' hearty yell and cheer. III Pat then comes and makes a bow Tells the Bishop 'tis our vow- Faith and hope and love to keep And a lasting harvest reap. IV Ed. O'Neill, you make us feel No manls honor We should steal. Nor to fritter nor to fret At the honors we can't get. Now Stirs V the Glee Club with its songs our spirit that it longs For the days we went to school And a swimming in the pool. VI Eugene Cull with main and might Tells How Then Tom In a How us of a father's rightf- his children should be taught for fads the master fought. VII McKiernan's strength and stay mighty sermon lay- we oft our neighbors cheat And the Lord's design defeat.

X Pat and James made such a hit That the audience had a fit, For the girls' new country Rub, Played the perfect poor old Boob. XI Victory songs-which students sing Always make the echoes ring, Sure a victory they did score As they ended with a roar. XII Then the Bishop glad and gay Closed the doings of the day, He advised us strong and clear To serve our Lord so good and dear. -M. S. St. Andrew's Day Commemorating the twenty-second anniversary of the episcopal conse- cration of the Right Reverend Her- man Joseph Alerding, our beloved bishop, the students gave a most en- joyable musical and literary enter- tainment in the new study hall, Wed- nesday afternoon, December 29th. The Bishop's Feast Day is an occa- sion eagerly anticipated by all the students at the Central Catholic High School, but to the Senior class it is the day of days before graduation, for to them goes the destinction of doing the honors on the occasion. Besides the Right Reverend Bishop and his devoted companion, the Rev- erend A. E. LaFontaine, diocesan su- perintendent of schools, those present included Reverend Thomas M. Con- roy, pastor of the Cathedral, Rev. John E. Dillon, chancellor of the Dio- cese of Fort Wayne, Rev. John A. Dapp and Rev. Theodore V. Fettig, of the Cathedralg Rev. Edward T. Fallon of St. Patrick'sg the faculty THE. ECHO 9 and students of St. Augustine'sg and the faculty and students of Central Catholic High School. The orchestra opened the program with a series of selections, one of the most popular being Southern Melo- dies. Patrick Wayne Donahue, pres- ident of the Senior class, made a hit with his address of welcome, the text of which is given elsewhere in this issue. Of the recitations, it would be hard to say one was better than the other, although it might be safely said that Edmund Bresnahan's reci- tation, Mr, Dooley at the Football Game, was the most enthusiastically applauded. A distinct hit of the pro- gram was made by Maurice Smith, as a soloist of the Glee Club in the Lit- tle Red School House. The Glee Club was at its best in the song, I Hate to Go Home Alone. The most laughable number on the program was City and Country, featuring Patrick Donahue as a City Girl and James Belot as a Country Rube. After the singing of the Victory Song, the Right Reverend Bishop gave a spirited talk, the substance of which is given elsewhere in this issue. The entertainment ended by Thom- as McKiernan leading the school in giving six hearty cheers for the Bishop. The complete program follows: tl. Selections 2. Address. ............ Patrick Donahue 3.

Address of Welcome Right Reverend Bishop: We welcome you to our midst, to the midst of the boys whose earnest desire of education has moved you to overflowing generosity. On the one hand we congratulate you on your twenty-second anniversary as Bishop of this great Diocese of Fort Wayne, on the other hand we recall with love and gratitude that this is the thir- teenth anniversary of your founding this school. We greet you with the greatest love and esteem, because you are not only our chief pastor, bishop, and founder, but also our solicitous father, replete with noble deeds and elevating ideas. In your sacred per- son we behold the spirit that advances and leads, the spirit that gives us courage and strength, the spirit that does not forget the younger portion of his flock, the spirit that has given to the Catholic youths of Fort Wayne a chance of receiving religious in- struction as well as higher education. Perhaps we do not sufficiently ap- preciate nor realize our advantages of receiving a good Catholic educa- tion. You Right Reverend Bishop have done your share and it is up to us to take advantage of our oppor- tunities. To our mind that school is ideal which safeguards the morals of 10 THE young students by instructing them in religion. For you know from ex- perience that a tree is known by its fruit. The chief reason of your found- ing this school was your earnest de- sire to train up good Catholic young men for church and state. Men that will give an account of the faith that has been instilled and developed in them at school. I think we can sin- cerely say that the Central Catholic High School has produced an abun- dance of good fruit. Our graduates can be found in every walk of life and they are, as far as we know, a credit to themselves, to their school, their church, and to their country. We are proud of our graduates because they have proved that the liberal educa- tion which they received in this school made men of them. We know that if their education had been of a less liberal character they would never have been able to take their places as students in the best univer- sities of the country. Today they thank you for the opportunities which you made possible for them. Right Reverend Bishop, we know that you are averse to praise, but Right Reverend Bishop ,this is the only method we have to show our gratitude to you for this institution. The words to which I have given ex- pression today were never uttered with greater sincerity by any repre- sentative of the Central Catholic High School. Yes, Right Reverend Bishop, we are grateful for all that you have done for us and we earnest- ly hope and pray St. Andrew, that great patron of yours, that the good God will bless and reward you and your boys, both in this life and in the lll'9 to come. -Pafr1'f'k Donahue, '23. ECHO Bishop Alerding's Address In opening his address, following the program, Bishop Alerding thanked the students for the good wishes they had extended to him. He told of the visit he had received from a committee of four students on the previous day, and how the commit- tee presented him with a beautiful gold fountain pen. He said that he prized the pen very highly as an em- blem of esteem, but that he doubted if it would improve his penmanship. He went on to say that besides the pen, the boys brought a parcel which he did not open in their presence- for he thought it contained flowers- but after the committee had departed he found it to be a turkey, which he assured them would do good service on Thanksgiving. He said: If the turkey were large enough and my house spacious enough, nothing would please me better than to have all of you with me at my table to- morrow. Continuing, the Right Reverend THE ECHO II Bishop said in part: I am more than pleased to know that the boys really appreciate this school. You must love it. You must be benefited by it. Almighty God created you and gave you capacities of soul and body. It is your duty to develop your capac- ities to the fullest extent. N o one has done his duty if he had not come up to the expectations of his Creator. We are expected to do no more or no less than we are capacitated to do. The parable of the talents was re- called and applied to the lives of the students. The gist of the application being that every one of us has a right to demand the opportunity to use our talents. Discussing the so-called Aristoc- racy of Brains, Bishop Alerding said in concluding the discussion, There is no 'Aristocracy of Brains! God gave us our brain asit is. We must make the best possible use of it. We must prove our gratitude to Almighty God for the brains He has given us by developing them to the fullest ex- tent, for to whom much is given much will be expected. What a boy will know, what he will dog are based on the relative question of the oportunity he has. Your opportunity is here. Do not praise me for it. God furnished all this because He pitied you. Make the very best use of what you have. Commenting on the graduates, the Bishop said: Under the unfavor- able conditions of the past we sent out .a number of graduates of which we are proud. In conclusion, Bishop Alerding dis- cussed the unfavorable conditions which existed in the past, the con- trast of the present, and said that the improvements made are but a shadow of what is in store for the future. How Santa Claus Came It was a cold day and flakes of snow were falling slowly, only to be melted on the wet sidewalk. A little girl was standing in a doorway with her back to the street. She was poor- ly dressed, her feet were almost bare. She turned around and one could see that her pretty face was covered with tears. She walked down the street to the outskirts of the city. She was weeping now, Oh, tomorrow is Christmas and we haven't a thing, she sobbed. She started across the street when she saw a taxicab coming at a rather dangerous speed. Her feet failed to move, she seemed spellbound. As the car was upon her everything turned black. When she came to, she found her- self in a bed. A nurse and a doctor were standing by her bedside. nurse spoke to her in a very voice. Lie still, my dear, you had a little trouble but will be alright in an hour or so. Oh, may I go home then? asked in a piteous voice. Yes, I guess you mayg but you had a narrow escape. Please tell me who caught me when the auto hit me. That I can't do. A young man brought you here and when he heard that you would be well again soon left with a promise to return. He hasn't shown up yet. I wish I could find him to thank him. He may show up later. But now if you will give me your name and address I'll put them on the record and if he returns he will be able to find you. The kind she 12 THE My name is Mildred Carrel and I live on State street. i Have you lived there - all your life ? No, mam, we used to live in New York but my father died shortly after my brother had to go to war. Mother had to move out here to support us, and somehow we lost trace of brother. We hadn't heard from him for a year before we moved, but we left our address with our neighbors. Half an hour later Mildred was Walking down the street thinking of something she could get for her little brothers and sister to make Christ- mas happy for them. I'll go to Mass for mamma, but I don't know what to do for the others. That night when she was at home talking to her mother, her little sister Mary, who had been looking out of the front window, cried out, Oh goody, here comes Santa Claus l And sure enough, in walked Santa Claus. Merry Christmas to you all, said Santa Claus, his voice a bit husky. He opened his bag and the little ones screamed with joy. Mildred drew Santa aside while the children were absorbed delightfully in their toys. Mrs. Carrel stepped over to them, her face beaming with happiness, tears of joy in her eyes. I'm glad you weren't injured, he said before Mildred could thank him. Oh, you're the man who saved me! exclaimed Mildred. I'd do much more than that for my little sister, he answered with a laugh. And that was a real Christ- mas. -Wayne Betshman, '24. ECHO Our Infant King I Let us now this anthem sing: Christ our Lord and Infant King, Born for sinners hard and old, In a stable dark and cold. II We should always grateful be, And our lives conform to Thee, Though we sometimes stop and falter, We resolve our lives to alter. III That our days in peace we spend, And our souls in sorrow rendg Grant us thru the coming year, This We ask, O Infant dear. -M. S. Autumn and Nuts Autumn is here. To a nature lover it is the glad time of the year. The leaves color, blush, and fall. Every- where the wind hustles them about with a gleeful jingling sound restful to the ear. A slow stroll through un- tended woods or wild forests, seems to be nearer to rest than any reclin- ing position can afford. Autumn is the time for nut gather- ing-that great sport so useful in its aim and pleasant in its practice. For me, an old bag and some trees that are fairly fruitful are enough to give a pleasant afternoon. The tall, state- ly walnut trees and rough hickories perhaps with hazel bushes among them take all thought away but the pleasant one of natural wonders. My, we say, what a tree this is- and that other hickory over there- maybe it's a 'shell-bark'. Then those bushes-can We push through that little opening? and so on-ever at- tentive to what the prospect holds out to us-seeing nature's graces and secrets and admiring them. ' THE ECHO 13 Perhaps the love of autumn and of that sport which is most typical of it -nut gathering-is nowhere so strong as in the heart of a fourteen- year-old lad. If, perchance I meet a younger boy than I, engaged in nut seeking, I cannot foreloear a pleasant greeting, and if the youngster is will- ing-a little conversation. Having no destination myself, we would go where he wished-ambling along together-picking nuts and dis- cussing everything in the woods. Before a wide stretching view from a hill top we stop and gaze with delight for a moment or two--no words be- tween us, perhaps, but yet we under- stand. N0 lad who indulges in this pas- time does it merely for the profit to be derived from it-if he does and one tries to become his companion it will be a difficult and unpleasant task. Boys, generally, see more than others and with different eyes. What young lad but enjoys the stroll in among the trees more than the nut feast after- ward? How many of them gather nuts diligently and even husk them under a wide-spreading tree and then through the whole winter eat only a tenth perhaps of what they have stored? The enjoyment is in the autumn and in the woods. No grown-up pleasure can compare with that a boy, in his early teens, can get from this quiet sport so useful in its aim and so pleasant in its practice. -Edwin O'NeiZZ, '23. Likeness Life is like an ocean wave Which fiows then ebbs away. Death is like a scented flower If souls are cleansed each day. -T. S. The Days of Real Sport Boys, be goodg Oh boys be right, Don't feel itchy for a fight. Though black rings about his eyes, Johnny Jones his deed denies. But the teacher wants to know Why no duties he can show. Johnny says with happy glee, Pardon, teacher, I couldn't see. Then the class begins to roar While the teacher's getting sore, Every task without delay With some duty he must pay. Johnny now heaves heavy sighs For the trouble has left his eyes, Long he writes, for well he knows, That, unpunished nothing goes. Soon the teacher grew real nice To disgust John with his vice, Tells him how his terrible ways Brings for him unhappy days, -M. S. Just Songs Keep the home fires burning In the cottage by the sea, Some day I'll wander back again, Then you'll remember me. When the harvest days are over And the swallows homeward fly, We'll listen to the mocking bird And let the rest of the world go by. Remember. me to all at home Until we meet again, Keep the sunshine in your smile, And sing that sweet refrain. Ah, I have sighed to rest me When the lights are low, On the road to home sweet home Where the black eyed Susans grow. -James Belof, '23, Contrast Muggy days are my delight, And rainy days and soggy soil Are just what make my heart feel light For then I can enjoy my toil, -George McG1'atlz, 'QL VAN ww? offro' v lf'-46 v G,5Z'u lr I f ' 'M' ' v il-Ph 1 f 1 Z Wkbj M, 3 ,Wir 1:1 'Q y ,Y x ' f 1 5 i xk ff! .

We know that about us are many poison- ous iniduences. Therefore we must necessarily examine carefully not only those things which sustain the life of the body, but also those which influence our moral life, such a lit- erature and our associates. Unless we keep a constant watch, our fruits by which we are judged by our fel- low men may prove to be only chaff, dross, and leaves. As Catholics we are under moral obligation not only to bear fruit, but we must be constantly bearing good fruit. No doubt it seems we are not aware of it, nevertheless every thought, every word, and every deed is that seed, which will finally spring up and bring forth its fruit. Whether the fruit which we produce will be good or bad depends upon ourselves as human beings with intellect and will. llow many times have we not been urged by our Right Reverend Bishop to make the most of our opportun- ities? That is to say, to do that which our conscience tells us and what we know to be right. If in our dealings with our fellow men we would ob- serve the first requisite 5 i. e., to mind our own business, we would always beneht somebody, because every kind act brings forth good fruit. About making the most of our opportun- ities, Bacon says: Do not despise any opportunity because it is small. The way to make an opportunity great is to take hold of it and use it. In order to produce good fruit, we are obliged to have noble and elevat- ing ideals, i. e., our soul's aspiration should be that which is most worthy of itself and of its last end-God. The situation that has not its ideal, says Carlyle, was never yet occupied by man. Let us then strive for high ideals and make, as the Bishop said, the most of our opportunities and let us cultivate the talents God has given us. Finally, let us bring forth such fruit that our fellow men may be bet- ter for our having come in contact with them. THE ECHO 15 The Parents' Duty The desire of the boy or girl to enter a religious order or congrega- tion should not be treated as a mat- ter of parental self-will, subject to the cold calculations of worldly prudence. There is question here of making or marring the fortunes of an immortal soulg in such a crisis there can be no justification for mak- ing objections founded on the maxims of interested self-seeking. All parents should understand-right thinking ones do understand-that the ex- pressed desire of a son or daughter to join a religious congregation springs ordinarily from motives of supernatural charity. Such a desire, therefore, is not a passing fancy or a sign of mere youthful enthusiasmg it is an inspiration from on high, a movement of the Holy Spirit sweetly urging the soul to follow the path of evangelical perfection. Far from opposing the Divine Will thus made' known, wise parents will readily make the sacrifice which God demands of them. He will compensate them for this deed in granting to them and their beloved ones the hundredfold of blessings to those who leave father and mother to follow in the footsteps of Christ's privileged companions. Hours of Study It is probably the theory of most school boys that a few hours study a week will suffice, but are they sure it will. The average length of required study in school is about forty min- utes. This is not enough unless the student does considerable study at home. The length of study any senior needs will vary from three and a half to five hours a day. He cannot do his work satisfactorily in any less no matter how bright he may be. It is only reasonable to expect that every student spend as much time in prepa- ration of lesson as he spends in the recitation of the same. This prepa- ration is not provided for during school hours. The study period in school is set aside so that the student is able to review what he has pre- pared at home. It is not a time for original study much less a time for copying someone else's work. If a student is worthy of the name he will do his home tasks and study his les- sons conscientiously. If he has not the backbone to do this of his own ac- cord, his parents-if they have the boy's best interests at heart-will see to it that the boy is at home and that nothing wfill interfere with his get- ting his lessons. If parents would see to it that their sons bring a reason- able number of books home-it is not enough for boys to take books from the study hall-each night, and then see to it that the books are used at home, there would be less complain- ing when reports go home and less disappointment when promotions take place next June. -John Hzfguenard, '23, A Word About Our Advertisers At the close of the year and espe- cially at this blessed Christmas sea- son, we wish to express our sincere thanks to our advertisers..

The new study-hall, class-rooms, corri- dors, stairways, laboratories, lavora- tories, cloak rooms, dressing rooms, and showers are a God-send. The new spacious study-hall on the first floor is large enough to accommodate over three hundred students. To satisfy the present needs it is fitted out with two hundred desks of the latest double pedistle type. The delicate tint of the walls and ceiling combined with the numerous windows and an ample supply of indirect electric light makes the new study-hall a most de- lightful place. In the class rooms also many im- provements have been made. New black-boards have been installed, two hundred and ten recitation room chairs of the arm book rack variety have been purchased and distributed to the various classes. ' ,W . l ,,, .i The Reverend A. E. Lafontaine, our beloved superintendent, W01'kiHg In conjunction with our Right Reverend Bishop, took a direct personal inter- est in the improvements... He has spared neither pains nor money to make the conditions at the C. C. H. S. everything that it is possible to make them. The students are grateful for the improved conditions, and will try to show their deep appreciation my mak- ing the most of the opportunities that they are enjoying at the Central Catholic High School. -Edwin O'Neill, '23. Physical Training Classes for All Special classes in physical training were inaugurated at the Central Catholic High School this year. Classes are held every day and each student must attend at least twice a week. Coach Flaherty is in charge of the work and the classes are received with enthusiasm by the members of the high school. Coach Flaherty who has just closed a very successful foot- ball season has his basketball players in good trim for the caging season. With an improved court and several of the veteran players back, every- thing looks bright for a successful season for the Purple and Gold. Apostolate of Good Reading Organized The Echo Apostolate of Good Read- ing is now a reality. Its purpose is to supply regularly and gratuitously the poor pastors and families in parishes in the south and southwest with much needed Catholic literature, and to make use of Catholic newspapers and magazines that are not being used. At the same time it is calcu- lated to teach missionary work to the high school students. THE ECHO I7 The members of the Fort Wayne Council No. 451, Knights of Columbus acting through their Committee for the Distribution of Catholic Litera- ture, have pledged both literature and postage to promote the endeavor. The Apostolate is functioning al- though the organization will not be entirely completed until after the be- beginning of the new year. J The Right Reverend Monsignor J. H. Oechtering, V. G., was the first priest to make an appeal to his people for magazines. As a result a whole truck load of wholesome reading was gathered at the church door and de- livered to the Central Catholic High School for remailing purposes. Hun- dreds of magazines have since been received from the same source. That the literature is greatly ap- preciated by those who receive it is evidenced by the kind letters received by the Apostolate. -Thomas Doyle, 525. Obituary It is our sad duty to record the death of Mr. Michael Kelleher, father of Stephen of the Freshmen Class, who died at St. Joseph's Hospital on Thanksgiving Day. Although his passing was rather sudden he had no cause to fear for he was ever a model Christian husband and father. The large attendance at his funeral evi- denced the regard in which he was held by his acquaintances. We assure the family that he will receive a liberal share in the prayers of both faculty and students. May his prec- ious soul rest in peace. A Book Review flusf as our Echo forms were being locked, our attention was drawn to a real for sure book of poetry. We cannot im- prove on the following notice which ap- peared in one of our International Maga- zines under the date of December 9.5 Lovers of good poetry will recall an ex- quisite book by the Rev. Charles L. O'Don- nell, C. S. C., The Dead Musician and Other Poems, which was unfortunately swallowed up in a publisher's failure. The choicest of that collection, with some new and appealing additions, has just appeared under the title, Cloister and Other Poems. Father O'Donnell's best gift is the ability to create beautiful lyrics of an extraordi- nary and haunting religious suggestiveness, but the present volume contains also two excellent longer poems. Priests have an emotional life too, fuller and freer, perhaps, than any other, but above all else individual and aspiring. To give this life expression in a form that suited it admirably was Father Tabb's abiding and generous serviceg he has had no successor, we firmly believe, to equal Father O'Donnell. Of course, the two are not alike. Of the Virginian priest's genius and its characteristics we need say nothing here: Father O'Donnell excels in ability to combine color with melody, or, let us say, stained glass with chant. The fol- lowing quatrain, Bread and Win-e, with the sub-title, Passionis Tuae Memoriam Reli- quisti, will probably convince the most in- veterate doubter that modern expression of sacramental moods may still be great verse: Herod's Fool and Pilate's King, Purple cloths and white we bring: Cloak Thee in the pale wheat, hide In clusters of the blue hillside. The little book is excellently fashioned. The Macmillan Co., price, 31.

Central Catholic High School is a commissioned high school for boys in the city of Fort Wayne and vicinity. It Was founded in 1909 by the Right Reverend Herman Joseph Alerding, Bishop of Fort Wayne, and put in charge of the Brothers of the Congre- gation of Holy Cross, Whose head- quarters are at the University of Notre Dame, Indiana, and Whose spe- cial Work is the conducting of high schools for Catholic boys. The purpose of the institution is not only to afford to its students the educational advantages offered by the high schools of the State, but also the training necessary for the proper un- derstanding and practice of the Cath- olic religion. Non-Catholic students are not required to pursue any of the courses in religion. C. C. H. S. AND ATHLETICS. Recognizing that education in the true sense of the word means the de- velopment of the Whole man-physi- cally as well as morally and mentally -the authorities are endeavoring to establish well-regulated athletics and amicable relations with other second- ary schools in this vicinity. In order to do this it was found necessary to formulate a set of rules and regula- tions that would conform as closely as possible to those of the Indiana High School Athletic Association.

FOOTBALL PEP MEETING Brother Daniel Explains Object of the Meeting The purpose of this meeting is to remind you of the old C.1C. H. S. spirit. You are all urged to be good sportsmen and good students. All thoughtful students realize that games of any kind should be played without resorting to abusive langu- age. Nobody ever accomplished any- thing by indulging in cutting re- marks, when things do not go right. As a matter of fact a man's first duty is to mind his own business. Consider carefully before you say a hard word to anyone. A quarrelsome player is like a splinter in the thumb-a cen- ter of soreness. In all your dealings, remember that today is your oppor- tunity, tomorrow will be some other felloW's chance. I am glad that we have with us here today, Mr. Thomas Hayes, who was a Senior in this school ten years ago. Mr. Hayes Was graduated in 1913, attended the law school at Notre Dame, was graduated during the war, served as a lieutenant in the U. S. forces in France, and at pres- ent is practicing law here in this city. It gives me great pleasure to intro- duce to you Mr. Thomas Hayes, the speaker for this occasion. Students of the Central Catholic High School: I have been invited here today by my good friend, your Superior, Brother Daniel, for the purpose of making a pep talk. First of all let me say to you that the thing which will carry your school further in sportsmanship as well as in educa- tional work, is a school spirit. What do I mean by a school spirit? I mean that quality which exists in some schools, unfortunately not in all H.

The finest football team that ever stepped into cleated shoes will not be effective and victorious over the poorest oppo- sition, if the members of that team constantly resort to what is known as individual play. Rather would I have a team composed of mediocre players whose spirit is that which characterized the famous Three Mus- keteers: All for one, one for all, than a team of all stars whose slogan is All for myself alone. 1 In your games with other teams al- ways be clean sportsmen and deal in fair play only. I would rather see your football team defeated in every game than to have one man on any opposing team truthfully say he was the victim of dirty play from any one of your players. Now to you students at large: un- less you give this team your utmost support, no matter what efforts the boys put forth, they are doomed to failure. Each and every man should consider it his duty to turn out and encourage the team at each practice and be ready and willing to give whatever service may be asked of him. In this connection let me say that you are fortunate in having for athletic director Frank Flaherty, than whom there is no better coach in this city or the surrounding cities. I have been told that the athletic association is offering season tickets, which will admit the holder to all the football, basketball and baseball games this season for the small price of 33-4.00, which means about 20 cents for each game. Now get behind these tickets, boys, and I believe that with earnest effort you should each be able to sell at least three tickets, which ECHO will mean a successful financial sea- son for your team. In conclusion let me say to you in all your efforts work for the general good of the school and your school is bound to prosper and to lead in ath- letics as it now leads in education. Football Review The tie game with Grand Rapids on Thanksgiving day drew a veil over what has proved to be the most suc- cessful football season C. C. H. S. has enjoyed. Losing but two games out of eight, and taking the City Scholas- tic Championship is a record of which we may justly feel proud. But this splendid record might have been an- ticipated as nearly all of last year's regulars were still with us. Seven men in all were lost to the team. Cap- tain Pud Koehl, 'Hanson and Haley by graduation, Hickman and Eckart left school, while Rinehart and Suel- zer, due to injuries, were not allowed to play. The veterans around whom Coach Flaherty built up this year's team were: Clifford fcaptainj, Bushman, Donahue, Koehl, Graf, Centlivre, McKiernan and Mulligan. At the initial call for candidates thirty-two gridders reported for practice. Those who earned a place on the squad by hard work and abil- ity Were: Berghoff, Foohey, Fink, McLaughlin, Kinder, Hedekin, Kel- ker, Pequignot, Elliot, Waite, Lynch, Baltes, Belot and McGrath. SEPTEMBER 30. C. C. H. S.. 7. GARRETT HIGH, 12 We opened our football season on September 30 with a game against our old rival, Garrett High School, and went down in defeat after a fierce struggle.

We met a stronger foe than we had anticipated and it was not until the last period that our lads could pull themselves together and play their best brand of football. During the first few minutes of play Dickson carried the ball over our line for a touchdown, after a series of end runs and off-tackle plays. We carried the ball successfully to their 15-yard line after the kickoff. There their line held and Garrett got the ball on downs. They started a march down the field but lost the ball on a fumble just as the quarter ended. It was our ball at the bmeginning of the second quarter and passes to kinder and Bushman carried the ball to their 20-yard line. Again Garrett's line held and Graf's attempted drop- kick failed. The half soon ended. Elliot recovered a fumble atthe start of the second half and we again started another drive toward Gar- rett's goal line. Graf grabbed a pass for 25 yards and a line plunge netted 10 yards more. A long pass a trifle too high for Bushman despite his desperate leap, grounded and Gar- rett took the ball on their own 15- yard line. At the outset of the fourth quarter Dickson intercepted a forward pass and raced thirty yards for another touchdown against us. We followed with an aerial attack that brought us to their 3-yard line. Kelker went over for the touchdown. Donahue kicked goal and shortly after the game ended. The fast work of Garrett's back- field gave the visitors the decision. lluslnnan at right end played the best game for us. ECHO OCTOBER 14. C. C. H. S., 64. HUNTINGTON, 6. After dropping the first game to Garrett, the C. C. H. S. team jour- neyed to Huntington to break into the win column and their efforts were re- warded by an overwhelming victory of 64 to 6. Huntington's lone touchdown came in the first few minutes of the game. After this the Huntington lads were held powerless while the C. C. H. S. eleven scored almost at will, making a total of ten touchdowns. With a varied assortment of line plunges, forward passes and end runs that be- wildered the Lime City lads the only question that arose was how large the score would be. Koehl was the in- dividual star with his open field run- ning for long gains. Five of these were good for touchdowns. Donahue, Bresnahan and Centlivre also played fine football. McKiernan, center for C. C. H. S., recovered a fumble and ran 20 yards for a touchdown. Baker, wno played right end for Huntington, was their star and made their lone touchdown. OCTOBER 21. C. C. H. S., 19. F. W. C. H., 3. On October 21st we met the Fort Wayne Central High School varsity for the scholastic championship of the city. The day was all that could be desired for football purposes. The week before Frank Flaherty had put the boys through stiff practice ses- sions and they were all primed to walk rough-shod over our old rivals. The game itself got under way at 2:30. o'clock. Fort Wayne kicked off and the bat- tle was on. The first quarter, though replete with thrills, was scoreless. From then on, however, the odds Frank J.

S. team fought valiantly to hold up under our varied assault but were un- able to block it. Time and again we battered their line for good gains. In the second quarter we succeeded in putting over our first score of the game, Bresnahan plunging over the line after a series of off-tackle and end-run plays. Koehl added a point by a pretty kick. For a few minutes it looked as if Fort Wayne would make the game a close proposition. Fair made 20 yards on a pass, and several line plays were good for gains. At last our line held and Mc- Ginlock made the best kick of the game, the ball being out of bounds on our 2-yard line. Graf made a pretty long punt but Granger ran it back to our 12-yard line. Our line held for two downs and then Stout made a successful drop-kick. The third period was also scoreless. A 20-yard run by Granger of Fort Wayne and two intercepted passes by Koehl and Centlivre for us were the features of this quarter. It the last quarter our line was im- pregnable and our backfield would not be denied. Our second score came when Centlivre made the 10 yards to goal after an intercepted pass. Im- mediately after the kick-off a pass to Bushman netted us 30 yards more. Pequignot added another 25 on an end run. On the next play he went through the line for the touchdown. The final score was 19 to 3. Fla- herty's boys showed a decided supe- riority all the way th1'OU2h the game- They deserved their victory. It would be an injustice to pick individ- ual stars as every man that partici- pated did his best to make C. C. H. S. the scholastic champions of Fort Wayne. OCTOBER 28. . C. C. H. s., 0. INDIANAPOLIS, 26 Although forced to bow to Cathe- dral High School's heavier and more experienced aggregation, the Hghting spirit displayed by C. C. H. S. men won the applause and the admiration of all. The game was hard-fought throughout and the Cathedral team was forced to exert its fullest strength up to the final whistle. ' 1...... NOVEMBER 4. C. C. H. S., 35. T. C. C. H., 32. On the evening of November 3rd, twenty members of the squad jour- neyed to Toledo to play the Toledo Central Catholic High School. This was one game which our team was determined to win and, although out- weighed considerably, they succeeded in turning the trick. The victory was doubly sweet to us as we were the first team to beat Toledo this year. We quote the following from their local paper, The Owl .' Our In- diana namesakes were not overly press-agented and lived up to every- thing that was said about them. They were large, rangy lads, vicious tack- lers and possessed a good running at-I tack, they did their best work in the overhead game, both defensively and offensively. Bushman, the visitors' right end, did good work on the de- fense, but it was on the offense that he shone. This colorful star was on the receiving end of many passes and altogether made about half of the In- diana team's yardage. He scored their five touchdowns. . NOVEMBER 11. C. C. H. S., 33.

As both schools had completely different schedules there was much doubt as to which was the stronger. ' In the game Hicksville displayed the best forward passing seen here for many seasons. This was prac- tically the only method by which they could make any gains. They com- pleted nineteen passes during the game and it was only by the hard line plunging and open field run- ning of Donahue and Koehl that we were able to win. Donahue carried the ball over the line for the first touchdown of the game during the first five minutes of play. It looked as if We would have an easy time winning but when Hicksville received they also came down the field and in a short time scored. The first quarter ended 7 to 7. At the start of the second quarter O'Niel, Hicksville's left tackle, drop- kicked a goal from the 15-yard line, giving Hicksville the lead. In the next few minutes we scored another touch- down but Hicksville made one just after. The half ended with the score 16 to 13 in favor of the visitors. Hicksville received at the begin- ECHO ning of the second half and carried the ball to our 30-yard line. A pass to Warner brought it to our 5-yard line but they could not put it across. Graf punted but in a short time they scored again after a series of for- ward passes. By Donahue's line plunging We soon added another touchdown to our score. Later Donahue intercepted a pass and carried it to the Hicksville 40-yard line. Koehl circled end for a touchdown. In the last few minutes of play Koehl intercepted a pass and ran 30 yards for a touchdown. September 30-C. C. H. S., 75 Gar- rett, 12. October 14-C. C. H. S., 64g Hunt- ington, 6. October 21-C. C. H.

We might characterize him as a Trojan for work, a hard man to please, with a forcefulness of character that is bound to get results. To him we extend our sincere and heartfelt thanks. The fighting spirit displayed by our team was the talk and the won- der of all who saw them play. Every man on the squad, when given 3 chance, put forth the very best that was in him. It was this fighting spirit that brought success and glory to old C. C. H. S. The spirit of the squad of 1922 will live long in our memories. That the team was composed of players of real worth is shown by the fact that six were given a place on the City All-High School Team and two on the second team, as selected by Mr. Reed, sport editor of the Journal-Gazette. We wish to take this opportunity to thank the students of St. Augu- stine's and St. Catherine's academies as also the student body of C. C. H. S. for their loyal and generous support of the team during the football sea- son. ' Decatur Game The clouds hung heavy in the air, And snowflakes flew 'round here and there, The football-field, a covered mat, And on the bench Decatur sat. From out the school, Cathedral came To hold in good repute, their name. Out on the field old C. C. went Close followed by Decatur, victory bent. Formation made, the whistle blew While grass and sod then only knew, That C. C. hit with hard accent As at the enemy they went. Then play by play the game hard fought Went down the field. Our team now sought With might and main to see some fun, Fleet Bushman winged the end for fone. Then soon again the ball in play, The teams both charged and tore awayg And many a cheer from side lines greeted Each hard fought effort undefeated. The third began, when lo just then The ball was sent to Bresnahan. Across the goal quite safe he strode The crowd all shouted a. la mode. For penalties the whistle blew And we at times retreated too. Yet even though it looked like 'leven Our boys had won-thirteen to seven. -T. S.

Train stops at Slushy- ville, Sloppytown and Misery. The last named was our stop. We arrived at our destination at 7:30 on Sep- tember llth. We were in for ten months' confinement with our books. After we got into the building we started to examine the new improve- ments, we visited the place where the old study hall was, examined the new rooms, admired the new corridor, tested out the paint, rubbed our hands over the real varnish, lamped the new light, and were just about to jump into the basement when the pre- fect sent us to Mass at the Cathedral. When Mass was over we returned to the school, where Brother Daniel as- sembled the mob and gave a talk on how not to behave ourselves. He con- cluded by saying that we should go home and return at 1 o'clock. During the afternoon sessions Bookkeeping and Physics were ex- plained to us in an interesting Way. Later we found the classes more than interesting. The second day Coach Flaherty called for football men. Centlivre, Kochi, Clifford, Kinder, McKiernan, and O'Neill responded. A sad blow was given the squad a few nights after when O'Neill was put out of the practice by having his hand horribly mutilated in a pencil sharpener. Rine- hart, unable to play because of a weak knee, was appointed business manager. The third day of school, when Mc- Carthy arrived, it was decided to hold elections and Pat Donahue, 100W for the class, was elected president. This is his fourth term, and we don't think he will flunk just to hold the office for a fifth year. Austin Centlivre was given charge of the filthy lucre, and James Belot is custodian of the pen. At present We have thirty-two members. McEvoy, of last yearis class, went to Campion College, Prai- rie Du Chein, Wisconsin, to get an early start in pre-medics.

Now we have our hands full. Smith and Bishop are vieing with each other for the destinction of be- ing the social lion of the class. Kallmyer, the pride of New Haven, and Bishop, are the only representa- tives the Seniors have in the orches- tra, but we surely have the Glee club. With Belot, McCarthy, Donahue, Bresnahan, Suelzer, Centlivre, Mc- Kiernan and Smith, our soloist, we have a combination that is hard to beat. The speakers, Donahue, Belot, O'Neill, Cull, McKiernan and Bresna- han, all contributed to make the Bishop's program a success. We're going strong and are all working hard on The Echo. Belot copped the job of editor-in-chief and Passino is his able assistant. Perhaps you think you have read the names of all the Seniors as you Went over the notes. No, you missed a few.

And thirty- three strong at that. During the first week we held our annual election of ofiicers and chose Wayne Bushman to succeed Charles f Chub J Graf as president. Chester Lilly took Bush- man's place as secretary and Michael Hogan succeeded in capturing the treasurer's job for the third time. The football team took two of its best men from our ranks. Bushman played a consistently fast game at end and in the backfield, while Graf was a pillar of strength on the line and a sure bet whenever a punt was needed. Kelker, McGrath, Belot, and Ferguson have proved their worth and will surely come through strong next year. Martin and Sorg are out of the game this season on account of injuries or we could count two more football players in our midsty Besides the Weekly dues the class treasury has another source of in- come in the class court. The court is presided over by His Honor, James Kelker, and his sentences are re- spected throughout his jurisdiction. In school one learns many things- yes, many things. We present a chapter on association of ideas. Dar- by and a pink striped shirt, Waite and his vest, Loney and bobbed hair, Belot and a wooden dagger, Martin and a fuzzy little bunny, ,Morris and chewing gum, Swift and Oscar, Roussey and rubber, Cheviron and long trousers-whoops! Schuckel,- ditto, Conners and cake, Graf and feet, and, and, well-any junior and his Geometry. Therefs lots more to tell about our bunch, Ntdo. If you want to recognize a Junior look carefully and you'll find the cake crumbs. For fear that we might get too Swift, once a day we have a Waite. Roussey is our pro- gressive citizen and every once in a while springs one of his rubber- headed ideas on us. Even so we kinda like those ideas once in a While at that.

We love our teachers and we love our fun, that's where the triangle usually comes in. We are first in love, Cof our teachersj first in war, fsee our football menj and first in the study hall that Monday morn'. -Chester Lilly, '24, i Sophomores Where do we go from here? What's this room for? Where do the Sophs park? These and various other questions ofi a similar order could be heard coming from the Soph- omores on September 11,-1922. We certainly felt almost as lost as the Freshmen when we viewed the new and changed interior of good old C. C. on our return. Everything was changed. The old study hall was gone and in its place stood two new class- rooms and a spacious corridor. The library looked familiar, so every Sophomore took the pains to betake himself hence. After getting some- what acquainted with the changes, we found that our old teachers, Brother William and Brother Harold, were gone and that we had three new ones, viz.: Brother Augustus, Brother Syl- vester, and Brother Andrew, in the places of the former ones. Brother Vitus is back and meets us every day. Brother Daniel teaches us our U. S. History and we have Brother Gilbert in religion. About a week after school started, Brother Daniel allowed us time out for the election of class oflicers. Zu- ber was re-elected president by a large majority. Red Foohey was elected secretary, and Libbing was given charge of the coin for another year. ECHO g We have the distinction of being the largest class in the school. This was brought about by practically every Freshman of last year return- ing this year, as well as several new- comers joining us. The new boys are: Haffner, Hartman, Heinze, Fink, Muldoon, Morrison, Noll, Elliot and iiennerk. Kennerk, the Wanderer, is not necessarily a new fellow in school but he is new to our class after a so- journ of nearly two years in the West Indies. The class was so large that two divisions had to be made. The two divisions might be called the A class and the B class, not because one is superior to the other but simply be- cause some distinction had to be made. Our class certainly seems to be do- ing its share in football, we have nine men going out to practice, and most of them have already participated in games. The candidates are: Foohey, McLaughlin, Berghoff, Lynch, Baltes, Mulligan, Elliot, McCormick and Steinbacher. We have enough men in the or- chestra to start a band wagon of our owng they are Burke, Smith, Barnett, Mulhaupt, Waltz, Flood and Whit- mer. With Brother Vitus as the leader of this gallant band we cer- tainly expect some fine music this winter. The Sophomore class paper, The Dope Bucket, is certainly a great success. Already several issues have been published and a fair number dis- tributed each time. We have received several compliments on it, and we know we are going to make its pages much better before the winter is over. Our teachers are now developing our arguing spirit by giving us numerous debates in English and History classes. Insist 0n--- HITE CROSS The Dependable Butter JK NF SHERMAN-WHITE Sz CO.

They are one and inseparable. Football dope was again upset when class A met and defeated class B at Lawton Park on Sunday, Nov. 17th. The score was 19 to 12. Lib- bing, 200-pound fullback, made both touchdowns for the losers, while Eu- gene Pequignot, a slippery little half- back, made two of the three touch- downs for the victors. Fordyce, class A's fullback, made the other goal for the winners. McCormick made the extra point on an end run. The first bi-monthly examinations have been successfully past and the second being close at hand, we are working hard to reach the high water mark. We take occasion to use this means to wish all the readers of the Sopho- more class notes a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. -Roy-Parrot. - . Freshmen '- September 11th was an eventful day for the Freshmen ,class of the Central Catholic High School. At 6:27 a. m., the first boy arrived. By 8:15 the corridors were crowded with new boys of all descriptions, little boys, big boys, fat boys, skinny boys, bright boys, dull boys, fresh boys, bashful boys, and boys who can be seen, felt, heard, but cannot be described. When we were assigned to class rooms there was a ,heavy sigh of re- lief, for we knew that then, and only then, we could call ourselves the Freshmen. Registration followed, and a count of the slips showed sixty-five were registered. The prefect said that our class was not quite as large as the previous one but added: Per- haps what you lack in quantity, you will be able to make up in quality. We have been trying to fulfill his ex- pectations. We are overflowing with pep as can be evidenced from the fact of the interest taken in school work, Echo work and in athletics. In the Echo work, Kelleher, How- ard, Biemer and Pierre are striving for -jobs in the circulation depart- ment. Corbett worked on advertising, while Sigl and Wolf are using a nifty pen in their endeavor to be enrolled in the art line. Sigl is designing a clever cover for the Echo, and is even looking ahead to the art work for the next commencement issue. The class elections resulted in Francis Corbett being elected presi- dentg Carl Pequignot, secretary, and Robert Schultheis, treasurer. The last mentioned office was hotly con- tested and the victor was elected by one vote. The class officers are en- thusiastic about their work, and a successful year is predicted. In athletics We are not a bit back- ward. Ki Pequignot went out and copped off a sweet little nest on the football team, and the way he walked through Fort Wayne High for a touchdown indicates he is surely go- ing strong. Beimer, Sigl, and Cor- bett are on the official list of subs. In basketball We have about as many players as we have students and the question is to get enough chances to play. The musical talent of our class is represented by John Fitzgerald and Clayton Howard, who are violinists in the orchestra. It is rumored that the Freshmen Glee club will soon be a reality.

The registration shows that our class is recruited from twelve differ- ent schools. The three most distant places represented being Salt Lake City, Utah, Momence, Illinois, and Blakeslee, Ohio. The most distant parish with more than one Freshman is St. Aloysius Parish, Sheldon, which is represented by Krouse, Stack and Freiburger. The lone star parish is St. Hyacinth's, which is accounted for by Anthony Krantz. Familiar expressions in our class are: App, ring the bell for the rest of the school.-Will Brother Gilbert hold night school?-Who's got the limburger cheese?-Pass around the cough drops.-Take at least three books home for tonight.-Freshmen next. The work on our class paper has been temporarily suspended and we are concentrating our efforts on the work for the Christmas examinations. Christmas examinations just remind us that we should take this occasion to extend to the readers of the Fresh- men notes the greetings of the sea- son. - -Frcmcfis Corbett.

C. H. S. Alumni, in company of Joe Finan, made an unexpected call on Brother Daniel, Nov. 5, 1922. Joe had answered the first call for volunteers for overseas. He was twenty-three months in' France and Belgium. Among other interesting things he told Brother Daniel that he belonged now to the dead man's club. Tomp- kins explained this, saying, that after he had been home for several weeks his mother was officially notified by the War department that Joe Tomp- kins had been killed in action. Joe im- mediately showed this notice to the dead man's club and was enrolled as a member. Joe thinks very highly of this club as it is the only club of its kind in 'the world. Joe Tompkins' home now is in Toledo. It was on Nov. 4, when C. C. H. S. played Toledo that Joe showed his colors, came out and rooted for his old school. He will be in Fort Wayne, Christmas, and we have reason to believe that there will be an alumni meeting. We congratulate Myron Parrot, of '10-'11-'12, and Jerome J. Miller, of the class of '13, on the splendid suc- cess of their recent undertaking, the publication of The Fort Wayne Sat- urday Night. With Mr. Parrot as editor-in-chief and Mr. Miller as bus- iness manager, we predict great things in store for the new-born weekly. Walter C. Dickerson, '22, is with the Meyer Bros. Drug Company. Raymond Franke is using his line to good advantage selling Penn Mu- tual insurance policies. Julian Koehl, '22, is employed at the Tokheim Oil Tank Co., and is a big figure on their basketball team. Steve DeWald, '14, is vice-president of the Loos Grovery Co. Louis Centlivre also of the class of 1914, is in the vulcanizing business. Steve Weber of the class of 1913, wants his friends to insure in sure insurance through Weber who writes insurance right. Charles McDonald can be met at the Charles McDonald tire shop. Joseph Ryan is a salesman for the Wayne Belting Co. of West Columbia street. Frank Lallak, besides holding down a position at the Northside D. 8: N., has organized the Lyceum basketball team, which is one of the strongest organizations of local players in the city. Joe Mungovan, '21, is climbing right up the ladder at the Lincoln National Bank. Good luck to Joe. Paul Miller, '21, is continuing his studies at Campion College, Prairie Du Chein, Wis. Paul McEvoy is there with him. At least three of our old boys are attracted by the solubrious climate of California. They are Martin Koester, Maurice Passino and Edward Koester. We regret to say that Martin's health has improved but little. The other two boys are working.

McCarthy, pastor of St. Ann's church, Lafayette, Ind., and professor of religion at the Central Catholic High School for nine years prior to the appointment of Father Dillon, visited Fort Wayne recently, and after giving the old building a thorough inspection, expressed him- self as highly pleased with the new improvements, and with the develop- ment and progress of the students. That Father McCarthy has lost none of his zeal for the Catholic education of youth is manifested by the fact that he is erecting a splendid new school in his own parish, and is ac- tively engaged as the spiritual direc- tor of the Newman Club of Purdue University. Robert Callahan, '18, has a position with the Westinghouse Electric Com- pany, Chicago, where he is getting the practical side of his electrical en- gineering work he got at Purdue.

That Florian A. Arnold, an excep- tionally good student of the class of '21, is keeping up that same record at Purdue, is evidenced by the follow- ing letter which speaks for itself: Purdue University, Lafayette Ind., Oct. 20, 1922. Brother Daniel, Central Catholic High School, Fort Wayne, Indiana. ' Dear Brother Daniel,- It gives me great pleasure to call your attention to the excellent work done by Mr. F. A. Arnold, a member of the Soph- omore Class in Mechanical Engineering. Mr. Arnold is a graduate of the Central Catholic High School in the class of 1921, and has made a most excellent scholarship record for his Freshman year. He has Won 11 A's and 4 B's. This is a high compli- ment not only to the young man, but also to your and your associates in the Central Catholic High School Where Mr. Arnold received his preparatory training. At no time in the history of the world has there been such a demand for engineers of unusual qualifications as there is at present. We are interested in attracting students of the type of Mr. Arnold to the engineering schools of Purdue University and we would appreciate your aid in secur- ing more like him. The world is full of average men. A student such as Mr. Arnold is above the average and therefore the type for Which we are most anxious. Our aim is to make competent men and not merely graduates in engineering. I am sending you a copy of a pamphlet explaining our Personal System which I am sure will interest you. Any way in which we can co-operate with you will be a pleasure. Cordially yours, A. A. POTTER, Dean of Engineering.

John says there are pleas- anter things in school life than scrim- maging against the varsity. Othmar Smith, of Decatur, another student of '19-'20, is enrolled in the school of commerce at Notre Dame, but as he is Day-Dodger he's seen seldom and heard less on the campus. Dick Deininger, '20, is also in the school of commerce at Notre Dame, and is going after things in the same steady way that he did when he was a little fellow at C. C. H. S. Bill Foohey, our star student of last year is a prospective engineer at Notre Dame. Bill recently took time out to join with a dozen of his brothers and sisters in celebrating the eightieth birthday of that grand old man, Timothy Foohey, their father. Eddie Lennon, '19, ,occupies the same position at Notre Dame that he once held at the C. C. H. S.-he's student manager of athletics, and the smooth way things were carried out at the Homecoming game speaks highly for his efiiciency as an organ- izer. Eddie is also secretary of the Senior class, and trustee Cone of threel of the Knights of Columbus which position has always been held by a member of the faculty. Frankie Doriot admits that he's the busiest man on the Notre Dame cam- pus. Besides his twenty-six hours of class work and the Physical Cultu1'e class which he conducts, he sees to it that every one of M1'. Rockne's forty huskies are thoroughly equipped for every football practice. Albert Serva. student in '17-'18 and '19, a clever Echo and Record car- toonist in his day, has changed his course at Notre Dame from archi- tecture to law. The latter fits in bet- ter with his father's business. Al- bert's present home is Canton, Ohio. Aaron Huguenard, '18, received his L. L. B. from Notre Dame last June, and is now connected with the law firm of Mclnery Sz Mclnery at South Bend. It is reported that he is doing well as a lawyer. Joseph Luly, '21, is on the art stai of the Notre Dame Juggler and is one of the biggest contributors in his line. More power to the once art editor of the Echo. Once a Notre Dame man, always a Notre Dame man, proved true in the case of Gordon Conway, '20, After finishing his high school work here, Gordon spent a year at Notre Dame, then Went to Miami for a sec- ond year. He is now back at Notre Dame. Jerome C. Arnold, president of the Notre Dame - Fort Wayne Club, writes: We are indeed fortunate in not losing Bob Gordan for it was rumored that he intended to go to the St. Louis University School of Medi- cine. He now contemplates securing a Bachelor of Science degree before entering upon his study of medicine. Eddie Baker, '21, is reputed to be power behind the throne in Brother Cyprian's accounting class at Notre Dame. Eddie was the power behind the Echo when he was here. Joe Schneider, 22, still goes through the corridors with his arms around somebody but the meek suf- ferer isn't Foohey or Hedekin any- more. Joe is a saxaphone player in the Notre Dame band. Cornelius Hayes, better known to our old boys as Ted, is teaching English to Spanish students, and is secretary to the dean of the Spanish course at Notre Dame.

Coach Rockne is well pleased with his work and has taken a liking to the Fort Wayne prodigy. Bruff is work- ing hard and has fallen into the Notre Dame spirit. The officers of the NotreDame-Fort Wayne Club report Homecoming' a grand reunion for old students and friends of the University, and add that it was probably more so for F'ort Wayne than any other city. There were about 500 Fort Wayne people present for the game. This number included a score of C. C. H. S. boys who will be future Notre Dame men. Arrangements for the Notre Dame- Fort Wayne Club dance have been completed. It is to be informal and is to be held in the Anthony Hotel ball room on the night of December 26. The Notre Dame Music Masters will furnish the music. This orches- tra has been playing for radio con- certs given in South Bend. Herman Centlivre, '20, and Bob Gordon, '21, have adjusted the old class differences that used to exist at the C. C. H. S. and are rooming to- gether in Corby Hall, Notre Dame. Both hold it's for mutual satisfaction. Les Logan, '19, is showing his usual athletic enthusiasm at Notre Dame. He is a member of the varsity in both football and basketball. He will probably get a monogram as he has been in most every game so far. Brother Leonard is president of the Dujarie Hall-Bengal Foreign Mission Society at Notre Dame, and the speeches that he gives every month have all of' his old efforts back in 1919 beat all to a frazzle. Shortly after the opening of Notre Dame, the Fort Wayne boys got to- gether and reorganized the Notre ECHO Dame-Fort Wayne Club. Elections were held at which the following officers were elected. President, Jerome C. Arnold, vice-president, Frank S. Doriotg secretary, Robert K. Gordon, treasurer, Maurice Boland. Every Notre Dame man from Fort Wayne is ipso facto a member of the club, therefore besides the regular secular students, nine members of the Congregation of Holy Cross, four Brothers and five seminarians, hold membership in the club. Clifford B. Ward is publicity man for the University of Notre Dame. This position is given him in recogni- tion of his splendid work in the school of Journalism. He is associate editor of the 1923 Dome and president of the Press Club. Before returning to Mt. St. Mary's Seminary, Mt. Washington, Ohio, Ed- ward Cunningham called at the school and gave the Brothers a detailed ac- count of his seminary life. He also gave a splendid report of another ecclesiastical student, a graduate of old C. C., Harvey Conway, who will be ordained to the priesthood within the next two years. Edward has two years and a half more before ordina- tion. Our next priest from among C. C. H. S. graduates will be the Reverend Francis Wyss, C. S. C. of the class of 1914. He is at present finishing his theology in Holy Cross College at the Catholic University of America, Washington, D. C. In answer to a telegram, Brother Kilian left for the South. He is now teaching at Holy Cross College, New Orleans, Louisiana. Brother Kilian was well liked by the student body and it is needless to say that the Cen- tral High School misses in him an amiable Brother and a kind teacher. DANIEL BROS.

No more sun- kissed onions grace the desks since Clifford gained a couple pounds on his vegitarian diet. The Sophomores have most of the musicians and besides they have a Waltz every day. Our idea of a movie class is the seat swapping method of one of the Sophomore Latin class. Brother Gilbert's night school prov- ed quite popular until Steckbeck found there was no let up to it. If hair was rain Miller would have a deluge. Every once in a while Jack tries to raise Cain. The Brother is usually able to subdue this son of Adam. The Freshmen took up a collection to get a classmate a haircut. The re- cipient bought a hair net instead. The other day while a hot argu- ment about pigs was going on, one of the Seniors said: You can't tell me anything about pigs for I was raised with them. How comes it that they call Rine- hart Jack instead of Rudolph. Who suggested the change, Bob? It won't be long before our class rings will be on the auction block. Donlt all bid at once. Even if you do need two, you'll have plenty chance to get them. In bookkeeping class one of the bright ones asked: How can you open an account when it is not closed? Schiffli thought he was ordering a wrist band so he ordered a ring size 11942. It may be useful out on the farm. Behold how hand washing and rings go together. A false report was spread by the Owl of Toledo. It said that a certain football player felt right at home the night he spent in Toledo. This sure was false. Said player says he felt like he was in in his home of after life. He is planning a visit with Old Nick. Too bad we cannot put Windy's laugh on paper. Soup sure went big with the co-eds when he got his shoulders hurt in that football game. Captain Clifford took the football players out motoring long ago.

' -Speaking of ignorance, as revealed by the senior general information test, one of our seniors thought Babe Ruth was a chorus girl, while a junior said, New Jersey was a little calf. Yet that is not as bad as the freshman who classified Baton Rouge as a cos- metic, or the soph who said that the Volsted Act was an acrobatic stunt. Bishop was standing near the cor- ner of Calhoun and Jeierson streets when a farmer came up and tied a horse to Frank's left arm. EXTRA-Kinder and Koehl have separted.-No they weren't married. Cull and Perrey like to get hosiery shop ads. We wonder why. One of our bright seniors wants to know if a domestic science class could make pie out of the currents of elec- tricity. Cull say: The morning after The night before Is not so popular Any more. Bushman sure did like to watch the Toledo bridge go up. Another question is: Who won the relay around the hotel, Bushman or Clifford? Coach: Yea, Hedekin, that was a fine tackle-for a girl. Clifford things he can be funny by being serious. Ask Houser about it. With Mrs. Blossom the trio would be complete. How about it Uncle Walt? After seeing Bushman make a few touchdowns at Toledo, we ve decided to call Bush Whiskaway. Bright eyes went to a football game for once, and all the co-ed rooters called him Jack. ECHO Mike Hogan explained the bond of relationship between himself and Jack McVey by saying: J ack is my niece.'T Nearly all the seniors are crazy about their English class except Mc- Kiernan, Luley, McCarthy and Ryan who favor Latin. The great question is Why is Suel- zer so affectionate of late ? The only man who has ventured to answer this question is Donahue who says Prac- tice makes perfect. There is no need of a freshman having prolonged cough. Sure they have Tru-ade and Cough Drops ever present.

THE ECHO 7 Patriotism ,Few are born heirs to power and riches, and fewer still are gifted with rare and exceptional talents which may be the stepping stones to distinc- tion and honor in the world. But all of us can have aims and ideals more exalted by far than all the riches and hono-rs to which man can attain. After a man's religion comes his country. When one has fulfilled what the law of God requires, then one should turn towards one's coun- try as being, next to one's religion, the dearest and most sacred thing on earth. Patriotism is love for one's country -a love that is truly genuine-not narrow and selfish, but generous, all embracing and just. True patriotism is the manifestation of that which is great, lofty and noble in man. It appeals to one's better qualities, for it will have for its own only what is best and purest in men. Man is cap- able of great and noble deeds. One of his beautiful qualities is a loyalty towards his country, a fidelity to the land of his birth. But his must be a loyalty that is true and steadfast, ani- mated by motives that are worthy, blameless and upright. Now because of this quality, we must therefore say that the true pat- riotjhowever humble he may be, is far 'superior to him, who, though tal- ented and rich, lacks this quality. Show me an honest lover of his coun- try-not one who is brave only when there is no danger to meet, not one whose patriotism is vain and loud- voicedg but one who is sincereg who is ready to do more than he saysg and Iiwill' tell you that there indeed is a patriot, and a gentleman. Such a one can be relied on. He is a man of the highest type: One of the faults seen in the would- be patriot is the habit of vain boast- ing. If there is anything that makes one's personality repulsive, it is this detestable habit. Actions speak more eloquently than words, and he who is truly great does not need to advertise the fact by much speaking. He who talks much is seldom a discrete man, and he who is given to boasting is seldom a brave man. Bravery con- sists not in words, but in actions. Patriotism is rarely in the breast of him who is the loudest in his decla- ration of fidelity and loyalty to his country. I am not speaking of the man who honestly denounces disloy- alty and weakness when he sees them, but I mean him who is a hero to speak, but a coward to act. But, as we have seen, patriotism implies more than bravery. It im- plies justice, righteousness and broad-mindedness. Yes! It implies broad-mindedness especially. Preju- dice never did any good, and particu- larly in America, a country made up of so many different nationalities, is the prejudiced patriot more of a men- ace to this country than a help. He causes many disputes not easily set- tled, and he kindles the fiame of ill- feeling and hatred in many hearts. Far different indeed is the broad- minded citizen who, though ever re- maining staunch to his country, is yet willing to listen respectfully to the views and sentiments of those who are of a different nationality, and who is ready to admit the truth on all occasions. This is patriotism in its loftiest. and noblest aspect. Who would not admire the man who is capable of such loyalty and goodness? Ah, well does he merit our adminiration ,and justly is he worthy of imitation. 8 THE ECHO Wherever he goes he will not only help to encourage the Weak, but he will sow the seed of good will among others. Well may his country be proud of him, and blessed is she if she have many like him. Now, we American people, by no means the least among the nations of the world, can justly be proud of our free and glorious Republic. America is but a new country, yet is it one of the great leading nations today. One may Well wonder at the giant strides of progress our country has made. Few nations have risen to such power and civilization in such a short timeg and never has a country enjoyed such freedom, supported by such just and lofty principles, as the American na- tion. Sure-our country is worthy of all the support we can possibly give it. O American citizen! Citizen of the United States! Love your country. Feel that it is a bless- ing that you belong to so great a na- tion as this. Love, also, your glorious flag. O Emblem of Freedom! Who would not love you? Who would not live for you? who would not die for you '?-Edwin O'Neill. That Basketball Game It was basketball season and Warn- ington had a very stiff schedule. The team was coached by George McLain, who was considered a wonder-work- er with his men. This year's team had suffered but one loss through graduation, but that loss was bad enough. Coach McLain could not find a satisfactory substitute, al- though he had worked all his extra men at the position. Each afternoon when the varsity arrived in the gym to practice there was a number of students there who passed the ball back and forth until the varsity took the Hoor. One of these was remarkably quick and ac- curate in passing and seemed to find the basket at leisure. McLain had been watching him every day for a week or more and thought that he would fill the hole at forward. How- ever the coach said nothing until the last night of practice before the game with the Freshmen. McLain strolled over to where the prospective forward was watching the varsity warm up by shooting bas- kets in rapid rotation. What's your name ? asked the coach. James Brown, answered the boy. I've been watching you and I'd like to try you at forward. Why don't you come out ? The boy seemed surprised but obeyed the coach and put on an old suit. His performance that after- noon was highly creditable and Mc- Lain was satisfied that he had found a forward. The news of the find spread rapidly and everybody was out the next night to see Jimmy Brown practice with the varsity. The season was as successful as had been hoped. The team had won all the games on the schedule except the last-which was soon to be played, and that was to decide the state championship. Jimmy was the idol of the school. His splendid work had converted even the staid profes- sors into basketball fans. Newbury was a strong team but the Warnington fans were confident in their great Jimmy and the wonderful support the rest of the team gave him. Of course the spectators' stands were jammed on the night of the game. Newbury took the lead in the first THE few minutes of the game. ' Then the score see-sawed back and forth with the rooters for both sides almost frantic. At the end of the first half Newbury led with a score of 9 to 7. In the second half the home team fought harder than ever and man- aged to take one point from their op- ponents' lead. With the score still in the visitors' favor, 15 to 14, Warnington got their chance. Jimmy was free, a team- mate threw the ball to him and he turned to shoot. The crowd was sud- denly silent. As Jimmy shot the whistle blew. Warnington groaned for the infallible Jimmy had missed the basket. -Ross Pettit, '24. Alumni Song A shout springs upon every side As sons of C.

Schule was out at lass. emediately at once I went home, ete dinner and went swimmin' for the rest of the re- mainder of the day. Then I estab- lished my daly roiltine. Brekfest Iirst, naturally, After brekfes, I was to do my work using a tooth pick getting the coffee out of my molers. Nex was diner and that was more work cause sometimes the supe had more then the proverbial oister in it. From 1 P. M. that is in the afternoon till about six bells I spent in a swim- min' down at the old swimmin' whole. For supper except on Friday, I al- ways took a few hot weiners. After weiners time was over, it was first the frend's house and then the hay for me. I mean a straw tick with some linen neatly spread over it. This continued for sixty-six days, Sundays excepted. On Sundays I went to church and then censered a Chicago paper for which I paid the grand and glorious summ of ten sents per and ete the total of 31.11. I fig- ured that out my self fur I had book- keepin when I was in schule. I had a been planning a trip to Rome City so one day I goes me lin having u nice quiet f i me here down to the Pensillvania station de- pot and says I want a ticket for Rome City. In a short time the old G. R. and I. was speeding me on the way. At lass we got there. I got my feet wet first. We road out to Round Iland Where our campin' sight was. In the afternoon I like a darn fool went swimmin and the water was about degrees below zero. Then I went fishing and the fish were just jumpin all around me. They'd come up and bow profoundly and then swimm away. I didn't use my line or bait except as a decoy. When the Hsh would come up to bow to me all I'd do was shake salt on there tales and they would jump right into the boat. When the boat was about full I pulled for shore and spent the rest of the evening writing to my friend. Says I to her, I'm having a nice quiet time here at Rome City, Ind. I used my vest pocket waste paper edition of Webster so that I might spell every word correctly, for I knew she had been thru schule at Saint Augustin's and knowed all about spellin.

Thou hast Apollo's gift to ascertain The course of fortune, light and melody. Fleet Mercury told thee of land and sea, And the high art of letters didst explain, And fair Minerva gave her noble thane The Keys of science, art and mystery. And thou didst correspond to all this light, O glorious and mellow sonneteerg Thy sonnets speak of some devoted friend Whom thou hast left un-named, by over sight, Thy dramas trumpet thee a noble seer, Whom fifteen score of years could I not transcend. -B. G. Yellow Stripes and Red Blood In the early autumn of the year 1921, a year which meant so much to the honor of the Maryville football team, there stood along the campus many small knots of boys discussing the first day of school, the new teach- ers, prospects for football, and the various other topics incidental to the opening of every school. In one of the small groups, stand- ing head and shoulders taller than any of his companions, was our friend Dick Cummings. Dick was a tall lad with broad shoulders and well developed muscles. Just one glance at his face would convince most any one that he was not to be trifled with. Dick was not a rich lad by any means, in fact he had to work in the village department store after school and on Saturdays to be able to support him- self and his sister. At last came the call for football candidates. Dick was almost heart- broken to think that instead of play- ing at his favorite pastime, as he had anticipated the year before, he would now have to work himself through school. Dick had a roommate of whom he thought very much. ' In fact Dick and Don treated each other like brothers. One evening after Dick had finished his work and returned to his room, he seated himself on the window bench with his knee clasped in his hands, and was looking into space when Don arrived from the campus Where ne had been practicing football. What's the matter, Dick, old man? he exclaimed, as he slapped his chum on the back. Oh! just naturally got the blues again, returned Dick nochalantly. Come on! snap out of itg tell 'papa' all about it, coaxed Don cheer- cheerfully. There is nothing to it. You know I always get the blues when I think of football, Dick explained, for be- fore father died .... and since I can't play this year it is only natural that the blues come on me. 34 bk Pls :lf Pk :ls Several weeks had passed, and Dick had noticed lately that there were small groups of boys here and there discussing something which was all a secret to him. When he would walk up to one of the groups, the conversation would change ab- ruptly. He wondered just what it could possibly mean. He went to his room and the wondering completely slipped his mind. He picked up his Latin and began to study. He had not studied long when the door opened and Don came walking in. Wh-why, what's the matter, Don? ejaculated Dick as his chum entered. 12 THE Oh! nothing much, Dick, only I just got into a scrap. You did? Over what? 'fWell, as I was coming along the fence I heard Pete Bartles call you 'yellow,' so I just up and hit him one. All Dick could utter was O hh h and with his hand upon his forehead, he sank heavily into a chair. . Bartles called me 'yellow.' Why I can't understand, why?,' Because you didn't come out for football. Well! what do you know about that? queried Dick astounded. The next day as Dick was walking toward Lower Hall he passed Pete Bartles talking to Ed. Macklin, who was a much larger fellow than him- self. As he passed them he heard Bartles mutter in a low tone: There he goes now, the yellow cur. This was too much for Dick. Grabbing Bartles by the coal lapel, he angrily exclaimed, Explain yourself, Bar- tles. But Bartles didn't have time to explain for Macklin was beside Dick with a nasty grin spread over his countenance. Lessen Pack, place dose mits off'n my fren', see, or you won't look pret- ty very long. N ow listen, replied Dick, I don't want to start a fight, but if you coax me you won't find me running. All I want is an apology or an explanation from this 'skunk'. Macklin tossed his cigarette from his mouth and with one dash his fist barely missed Dick's jaw. Why you dirty sneak, cried Dick and giving Bartles a shove he Went into Macklin. His first blow to the jaw was neatly blocked by Macklin, who came around with a left to the heart which Dick barely felt. Dick ECHO knocked down Macklin's guard with his left and sunk his right into his opponent's stomach, coming up with his left with a smashing blow to the chin, which blocked so slowly to avoid collision, felled Macklin. After three full seconds he arose, only to take more punishment, for as he arose to his feet he was met by a staunching blow to the heart which once more sent him sprawling. He was laid out. As Dick turned around he noticed Bartles standing nearby and walking over to him. He was about to try his luck at persuading his friend to ex- plain himself, when Bartles hastily cried out: O-h-h-h! stand back, I'll take it all back if you only don't come near me.

THE St. Patrick and the Snakes Pat and Mike were two big snakes Lying on the shamrocks green, St. Patrick cast down his eyes, The snakes could not be seen. These two snakes were old and tough And smoked clay pipes of old. St. Patrick thought that they Were awful rough and bold. He said to them with piercing eyes I'll drive ye out some day, But they did only laugh at him And on the shamrocks lay. These two snakes lived on and on As in books you've often read, And now alas the one had died But remember just the one is dead. The other now was all alone This one's name was Mike, And sure he was the very one St. Patrick did not like. St. Patrick searched a day and night The snakes could not be seen, St. Patrick bellowed o'er the fields You think I'm awful green. And so he bought a lawnmower To cut the shamrocks down, And as he did this very thing The fields were turned to brown. One dark night he looked around With a flashlight in his hand, He saw the snake a lying In a coil upon the sand. Shure, he cried, Ain't that a sight For a man as big as me. So he took out his revolver And he shot the snake, you see. -James Belot, '23. -i, To B. K.

A grateful na- tion has coupled their names, and patriotism glories in the memory of the Father of our Country and in that of the Savior of our Nation. It is but fitting that we should pause and study the ideals of these men, as both of them were Americans of the highest type and most friendly to the Catholic people. Let us turn to them for real Americanism. Why Not? Why not organize a regular school baseball team this year? We never had such good material to start with. We have three splendid pitchers in Maurice Smith, Albert Schoenle and George Fitzgerald, and a little try- out Would reveal subs for James Smith in the catcher's box. With Husselman at firstg Graf at second, and Smith at third base with Koehl at short, we would have a combina- tion hard to beat. Bushman is a good right fielder, Elliot or Fitzgerald could look after center, and Rinehart would connect with any fiies in the left field. We are confident that there is plenty of baseball material in the school, so why not develope it? ' -A FAN. Good Manners In saying that a man or boy is judged according to his conduct and his appearance, we merely repeat a well-known truism. If a man or boy displays those fundamental traits which mark the gentleman, his fel- low-men respect him, but if he is lacking in any of the elements of gentle behavior, the better part of the world will seek to avoid him. The term good mannered is not by any means restricted to the mem- bers of exclusive society , neither is it so narrow as to be inapplicable to one who lacks such an artificial ac- complishment as drawing-room con- versation. Good manners is syn- onymous with correct behavior, and hence excludes affectation as Well a vulgarity. A man or boy is said to be well mannered when in all his conduct he so carries himself that he exemplifies virtue. By refined be- havior at all times he shows his inner nature of which good manners are the expression, by them he manifests his character. Absence and Tardiness Many parents having occasion to call the Brothers of Holy Cross in re- gard to absence and tardiness of boys spend a great deal of time and pa- tience trying to get a number that no longer exists. The new telephone di- rectory was off the press when the Brothers' number was changed to Main 6267. The Brothers take this occasion to thank those parents who have so heartily co-operated in building up such a splendid punctuality and at- tendance record for the Central Cath- olic High School, a record which is just four times better than it was two years ago, and a record which is the admiration of the Fort Wayne Public Schools, Department of Attendance, and the talk of the workers of the Juvenile Court. Boys who love their school will do everything in their power to maintain this record, and parents who are ready to co-operate will help to improve it, for all realize that punctuality and regularity in school attendance are the first requi- sites of good class standing. 16 THE ECHO L GYE5 Rt. Rev. Msgr. Noll Pays Annual Visit The annual visit of the Right Rev- erened Monsignor Noll, LL. D.,ieditor of Our Sunday Visitor, and the most widely known Catholic editor in the world, was an occasion on which the students were called upon to en- tertain and to be entertained. An- ticipating the Monsignor's visit, an attractive program was prepared by the sophomores, assisted by the or- chestra and the Senior Glee club. Im- mediately following the program, our honored guest addressed the students on the value of discipline. In the even- ing he discussed the present school question. In opening his afternoon address, Monsignor Noll, complimented the students on the strides made in things other than in football. He pointed out that while no one present knew what the boys would be doing ten years hence, that it was im- portant now that Rt. Rev. Bishop Alerding had provided a high school for the Catholic boys of the various parishes and stressed the value of mutual encouragement among those attending. Predictions of great lead- ers of the present were cited. We base our predictions on character and reputation and if we hope for success, our aim must be to be men who will :oi . ' . idelgg t be respected, said the speaker. He pointed out that there is a feeling of religion being necessary in school, showing that the public schools are providing for it and are giving credit for same. Besides training of the mind it was proven that training of the heart was also necessary. The value of discipline was emphasized, Msgr. N oll showing that 'discipline in the day school is much less than in boarding institutions and does not compare with the requirements of military schools. That which is re- quired in the school is necessary for will training now and in preparation for the future, and he declared that the students should be grateful to the school for discipline. Reference was made to the discipline of the religious lives of the teachers, the sacrifices of their lives to ground their pupils in the principles needed to make leaders in behalf of church and community. We need, he said, men with strong wills, men who know when to say, no. Practical advice was given the boys about the home now and he com- mented on the lack of real home feel- ing because not enough time is spent there. The students were counseled to prepare carefully before selecting their life's work and not too be too hasty in company keeping, dancing and choosing life partners.

Victory song, students. In his consideration of the school question Monsignor Noll showed that if the parochial schools closed in our large cities the situation would be such that the school administration would be unable to care for all the children and further that finances would be disturbed to such an extent that the immense appropriations now necessary for the public schools would have to be still further in- creased. He stated that his opening remarks would be based on what he has been reading in the Fort Wayne newspapers. Despite the fact that several new schools have been erect- ed and additions and improvements made to others, the school board has found it necessary to float another bond issue for approximately 5800,- 000. Half the school population in Fort Wayne is in Catholic and Luth- eran parochial schools, accordingly if these schools were to close as many more would of necessity have to be erected. ECHO 17 Rt. Rev. Msgr. J. F. Noll, LL. D. Attention was directed to the situa- tion in the large cities of the country In New York at the beginning oi 1922 there were 116,000 children on short time and in September 148,000 on half time though a building pro- gram was being carried out and the school board has appropriated 364,- 000,000 for a building program for the next fouryears. The Catholic parochial school children in New York number 110,000. Were they thrown on the city's hands as many more schools would have to be built, the appropriations doubled and 557,000,000 more provided for the maintenance of the schools. The New York school budget for 1921-22 was 395,000,000 In Chicago where there are 100,000 children in the Catholic parochial schools, 30,000 public school children are on half days and in addition there 20,000 in portable 18 THE schools. The school city has ap- propriated S'p20,000,000 for building purposes this year. In Brooklyn there are 50,000 children on half time. The parochial school children in that city number 80,000. In Philadelphia, Boston and other centers, Msgr. Noll showed the dif- ficulties faced by the school adminis- trations to meet the present demand. He declared that as regards the pub- lic school it is not the traditional American school. We hear much, said Msgr. Noll, regarding our op- position to the public schoolg we have been told that the Catholic church seeks to controlg some go so far as to intimate that our aim is to destroy them. The truth is that we haven't anything against them as far as they go. If the public schools were turned over to us we would not know how to improve on them. We couldn't intro- duce religion for we must respect the religious feeling of all people. The public school in America is only 80 years old. The colonial schools were private or religious schools. The country was established and the con- stitution of the United States written long before the public school came into existence. Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Lincoln attended private schools. Coming down to our modern statesnien, Theodore Roosevelt and William McKinley never attended public schools. Seven of the eight chief justices of the United States were educated in religious schools. Eighteen of the presidents of the United States were college graduates and sixteen of them received their education in private schools, 300 out of the 400 standard colleges of the country are under some religious body or organization. Three-fourths religious supervision. ECHO Rev. Thomas M. Conroy Opens Essay Contest For the purpose of stimulating in- terest along civic lines and encourag- ing a closer consideration of those things which will be of especial bene- fit to the community, Rev. Thomas M. Conroy, rector of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, an- nounced the opening of an essay con- test at the Central Catholic high school. Fort Wayne's Most Urgent Civic Need was the topic proposed for the second annual contest which the rector has sponsored. The time period for submitting the essay is of announcement until of the students are essays not to contain words nor over 3,000. from the date May 1. All eligible, their less than 500 Ten dollars will be awarded as first prize, one-half of this amount for the second and one-fourth for the third. In addressing the students on the needs of the city, Father Conroy in- dicated that there were many that THE ECHO 19 a could be considered. He alluded to track elevation, beautification of the river banks, systematic parking on Calhoun street, smoke ordinance en- forcement, erection of new bridges and a zoning law to prohibit indus- trial concerns from locating in exclu- six residential districts. Encourag- ing the contestants, he declared that all had an opportunity of giving evi- dence of their mental powers and that while not all could win, that the effort was to their benefit. It was the aim, he pointed out, to make the stu- dents as citizens concerned in Fort Wayne and a credit to it. Last year's contest brought about considerable rivalry in the Freshmen English classes. Many aspired for the honors, practically half the mem- bers of the class contending until within a few days of the close of the contest. The length of the essay was baffling to some of the number so that in the final count eleven were contending for victory. Last year's winners were: Richard Orff, first honor, Jennings Streifuss, second honor, James Roy, third honor. Those deserving of special rnention were: Thomas Doyle, Fred- erick Weber, Stephen Franke, Harry Ienny, Richard Loos, Joseph Schul- .er and Joseph Oddou. The students are highly enthusias- :ic about the present essay contest Jecause of the great possibilities with :he subject, the choice of length, and nost of all because the contest is Jpened to all students in the school. We thank Father Conroy for his :ontinued interest in us and in our school, and we recall with gratitude and delight his untiring efforts dur- ng the first year of the remodeling f the school building. Holiday Program One of the very attractive pre- holiday events of the school was an entertainment given the Wednesday before Christmas. Besides being the occasion for talks by two honored guests, the program put everyone in good spirits for the exams of the next two days. The guests of the occasion were the Reverend Thomas M. Conroy, the rector of the Cathedral, and Mr. John J. Disser, grand knight of the Fort Wayne Council No. 451, Knights of Columbus. Both spoke encourageing- ly to the students and complimented them on the program of the occasion. Speaking of two or three numbers Father Conroy said he had never seen or heard better in the hall, and ,that the impersonation was far above that to be expected of amateurs, and su- perior to much in the professional line. Father Conroy's announcement of the essay contest will be treated in a separate article. Mr. John J. Disser gave an able address, following, his presentation by Brother Daniel. After commend- ing the students on the selections given, Mr. Disser assured his au- ditors that the Knights of Columbus are and have always been interested in the school. In an interesting review of the activities of the organization, particularly in Indiana, he discussed the important work done in behalf of boys at the Cibault home. In a gen- eral manner he referred to the build- ing of a new home by the Knights of Columbus in this city, which would afford advantages for the young men and would possess the characteristics of a community center. In following Mr. Disser on the pro- gram, Father Conroy expressed the hope that the dream would become a 20 THE ECHO reality and voiced his confidence that Fort Wayne, with a Catholic popula- tion of 15 per cent, was large enough to maintain a community center and would be willing to further a move- ment along those lines. Concerning the proposed Knights of Columbus building, the hope was expressed that it would possess the features of the Fenwick club in Cincinnati and though perhaps not on such a large scale, it would afford community ad- vantages. The students' program, given un- der the direction of Brother Daniel, was as follows: Selection-C. C. H.

THE S400,000 CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL FOR EVANSVILLE According to information received in this city, Francis Joseph Reitz, of Evansville, bank president and phil- anthropist, will erect a new Central Catholic high school in the southern city at an approximate expenditure of S400,000. The site occupies ten acres and was purchased at a cost of 330,000 Plans for the new institu- tion will be drawn up at once under the supervision of Mr. Reitz, who is a member of the board of trustees of the University of Notre Dame, and is deeply interested in educational and charitable institutions. The school will provide accommodations for 500 or more boys from the nine Catholic parishes of Evansville. The board of directors is formed by the respective pastors and one layman from each congregation. The splendid new building planned will take the place of the present Cen- tral Catholic High and the Holy Cross Brothers from Notre Dame who form the faculty will continue their labors. Brother Ephrem, for several years a teacher at the C. C. H. S. in this city, is superior at Evansville. Brother Harold, who taught here for the past two years, is a member of his staff. An Apology Owing to a mistake in correcting proof, the name of Bernard Kearns, whose address is 306 East Woodland Avenue and whose telephone number is South 6087-J, did not appear in the Student Directory of recent issue, and the management takes this means of correcting said error. A second 'error occurred in the Franke Brothers' telephone number, which instead of South 6360 should read South 6260.

EUGENE LULEY Popular Member of Senior Class Passes to His Reward Once more the Angel of Death has visited the Central Catholic High School. One who was loved by all has answered a higher call. Faculty and students were shocked on Satur- day, December 23, at the sad news of the death of Eugene Luley, a popular member of the Senior class, who died following a sudden relapse due to complications resulting from an op- eration for acute appendicitis. Eugene had been in the hospital for a month, and seemed to be gaining as well as could be expected considering the condition he was in at the time of the operation. When visited by the members of the faculty and the vari- ous students, he was always cheerful and hopeful. His one worry was that he would not be able to be taken home for Christmas. He was taken home for Christmas, but a sad feast it was for the parents and his brothers. The baby of a large family, Eugene was the hope and consolation of his aged parents whose five boys were scat- tered and whose four girls had pre- ceeded Eugene in death. During the years Eugene was with us, he was one of most studious and best-liked boys in the school. A hard worker and a good mixer, he was a popular athlete and a consistent Echo worker. No matter what was to be done, singing, acting, playing, type- ing, or anything else he was asked to do, he was ever ready to put forth every effort to do the thing readily and willingly for the greater credit of his school. His wonderful mani- festation of school-spirit should be of particular value as an example and inspiration for all C. C. H. S. students and all should regard it as such and make good use of it. Though his death was a blow to all of us, we feel that he was well pre- pared to meet his Maker. The funeral, which was held morning after Christmas from Mary's church, was attended by the the the St. student body, who, along with members of two young men's clubs in which Eugene held membership, act- ed as a guard of honor at the home, the church and the cemetery. The Right Reverend J. H. Oechtering, Vicar General of the Diocese of Fort Wayne, who was the celebrant of the funeral mass, addressed a short dis- course to bereaved parents, the rela- tives, the students and friends, in which he beautifully pointed out the great lesson of death, and ended by counseling all to pray fervently and frequently for the faithful departed. Faculty and students extend their sincere and prayerful sympathy to the bereaved family and assure them of an abundance of prayers and suf- frages for the repose of Eugene's soul. R. I. P.

LULEY Born June 9th, 1904 Died December 23rd, 1922 Eugene Luley This life is false we know full well. Upon the future our thoughts must dwell. For here a friend is called while young, Let no kind word be left unsung. His smiling face did cheer us up Till death's cold hand had drained life's cup. His mem'ry's held by students here As loving, gentle,.kind and dear. There may be others to take his place Here in life's fast ebbing raceg I say perhaps there 'may be one, But few will do what he has done. A kind word here, a sweet smile there, A helping hand to banish care, 'Twas thus he tried to do his part Until God claimed his youthful heart. -Robert Suelzer, '23. In Memoriam Into death's uncertain valley A classmate true has passed He tried but could not rally And then he breathed his last. 'Twas tender hands bore his remains To a final resting place, Then loyal mates in sad refrains Invoked Sweet Jesus' grace. Perhaps he had not reached his goal But now his cares will cease And Ict us pray that his sweet soul May forever rest in peace. Erlmunrl Brcsnfzlmn, '23, its Students Attend Requiem Mass for Eugene Luley To pray for the happy repose of the soul of Eugene Luley, the student body attended a Requiem High Mass in the Cathedral on the morning of the third of January. The Reverend J. Edward Dillon, Chancellor of the Diocese of Fort Wayne, Eugene's teacher of religion at the Central 'Catholic High School, was the cele- brant. A number of the relatives of the deceased youth were also present to offer up their prayers, in union with those offaculty and students, for the repose of Eugene's soul. Twice since the above mentioned mass, all the students have assisted at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the same intention, and twice the members of the Senior class have re- ceived Holy Communion in a body for their departed companion. In Memoriam On January nineteenth the Angel of Death came to summon Mrs. C. B. Gushing, mother of Richard Orff of the Sophomore class. Although her death was rather sudden she had no cause for fear for she was a model Christian wife and mother. The host of friends, Catholic and non-Catholic, at her funeral evidenced the regard in which she was held by her acquain- tances. The members of the Sopho- more class assisted in a body at the funeral which was held from the Church of the Most Precious Blood and the whole student body a few days later assisted at a High Mass of Requiem in the Cathedral for the re- pose of her soul. To Richard and the other members of the bereaved fam- ily, the faculty and students extend their since1'e and prayerful sympathy. May her precious soul rest in peace. 7 Frank 1.

Here are a few of the notables and the whyfor's of their fames. Dierkes knows he's a charming lad and likes to pose as sleeping beauty and it becomes him, don't you know. We would say more about this superb individual but then f'he can't help it. Our Julian has begun to sign himself The 58th. Auburn Foohey has a sweet mule laugh and he knows it. Still he can tell the class what natty means. We often wonder if I-Iaffner is blessed with natural curls or if he is the victim of some artistic experi- menter. Also if Zuber forgot to shave last month or if he is trying to raise a moustache. You should see how we are coming out in long jeans too. One pair, at least, was the real thing, velvet- patched, white-be-buttoned, bell-bot- tomed, toreodore nether garments. Those who have blossomed lately are Doyle, Fink, Streibig, DeWald, Lo- gan,, Smith, Steinbacher, Miskel, Campbell and Whitmer. Due to some thoughtless playful- ness Harry Jenny was out of school for some two weeks, he's getting well again steadily. Some of us went to see him and found him as game as could be and-actually-wanting to get back to school! What a shame that such a perfectly good excuse was wasted on a guy like him! Joe Mor- rison has been doing a good share of the reading in class lately and as they say, day by day . . . And we have a team in the senior league also. We survived the exams pretty well but they left us wiser. Day by day in every way we are learning to love the mailman and the telephone better and better. It is rumored that Burke and Weber have joined the I. W. G. CI Won't Growb club. Somebody put them back to back and told them they were the same size, w h e r e u p o n Johnny pretty nearly lost his temper. Libbing made his debut in basket ball in one of the class league games late- ly. The basket ball rules will have to be remodeled so that Weber may use a ladder or climbing irons or something next time he plays against -well Doyle f'rinstance.

Clarence Field, '22, has changed his course from Electrical Engineering to that of Finance and Commerce at the University of Detroit. Hats off to the tillers of the soil. Carl Schiffli, '22, is the latest to join that noble band of honest workmen. George W. Dolan, an old student who has been out of school for some time, has been making the laymen's retreat at Norte Dame for the last few years and liked the place so well that he decided to make Notre Dame his home. He entered Holy Cross Seminary last September, where, un- der the direction of Father George Finnegan-our commencement speak- er of two years ago-he will prepare for the priesthood. According to re- ports. he is doing splendidly. Clifford B. Ward, senior classman at the University of Notre Dame, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ambrose Ward, of East Williams street, Fort Wayne, and an alumnus of the Central Cath- olic High School, has the unique dis- tinction of having received two very high honors Within a week. Elected Friday to the presidency of the Notre Dame Press club, announcement was made Monday by the Dome board of his appointment as associate senior editor of the Dome, the university's annual. Bill Haley, '21, is working at the Corrugated Paper Company. Bill plays on at least four basketball or- ganizations in the city. William Brennan, '14, finished his course in the Engineering Depart- ment of the University of Michigan, ECHO and is now employed in the Engineer- ing department of the Edison Com- pany Works at Detroit, Michigan. His brother Tom of the Class of '17 is em- ployed by the same firm. Rumors have it that both are to go to France in the near future in the interests of their firm. Robert S. Cliford of the Class of '17 is a senior in the School of Com- merce at the University of Michigan, where for the past three years he has been a student of business adminis- tration. His brother Joe of the Class of '23 has made reservations at Mich- igan for next year's work. Walter C. Dickerson, '22, is with the Meyer Bros. Drug Co. Fred Kelley, '17 , holds a responsible position at the General Electric. Wayne Hart, '17, after finishing his course at Purdue secured a good posi- tion with the Chicago Engineering Co. We clipped the following from The Notre Dame Scholastic, of February 10. Campus Comment The inauspicious bulletins announcing the Fort Wayne Club smoker in Kable's banquet room last Tuesday evening gave no hint of the delightful entertainment in store for the members who attended. Jerry Arnold start- ed the program witlf a few well chosen re- marks after which George Hamilton, toast- master, introduced the numerous speakers. Brother Leonard and Brother Benigius, Ar- nold's brother, gave interesting addresses, but the other honorary members, Brother Florian and Brother William, were unable to attend the meeting. Then each of the sen- iors gave a short, peppery talk, and this most successful meeting was brought to a close.

Childhood's patron saint occupies the place of honor on the artistic cover, done in red and green, and his smile of satis- faction is no broader than that of the reader after a review of the contents. The frontispiece is appropriately The Christ-Child in the Manger, with an accompanying sketch expres- sive of well wishes for a Merry Christmas, in honor of Bt. Rev. Bishop Alerding, founder of the school, who celebrated the 22nd an- niversary of his episcopal consecra- tion on St. Andrew's day, November 30, there is a poem, an account of the celebration arranged by the students and the address of welcome given by Patrick Donahue. Bishop Alerding's picture and the prelate's address are presented. Wayne Bushman con- tributes a touching story on the com- ing of Santa Claus and Edwin O'Neill proves himself a lover of nature through his recital of a trip to the woods. The editorials are timely, well written and all worthy of perusal. Completion of the remodeling of the Catholic high school building fur- nished matter for an article illustrat- ed with a picture of the diocesan school superintendent, Rev. A. E. La- fontaine, who has earnestly co- operated with Bishop Alerding in the extensive improvements made. Thom- ts Doyle furnishes an interesting ac- count of the organization of the Apostolate of Good Reading and high praise is given Rt. Rev. Msgr. John H. Oechtering and Fort Wayne ECHO ' Council No. 451, Knights of Colum- bus, for assistance given in the enter- prise. A considerable portion of the quarterly is devoted to athletics, the section containing two page plates of the C. C. H. S. '22 city scholastic champions and a close-up of Coach Frank Flaherty. The Class Notes Will delight old friends and win new ones. A list of teachers, past and present, and their addresses is in- formative. The Periscope reviews the activities of the old -students, a large number of whom are continuing their studies at the University of Notre Dame, and other institutions. A total of 34 are at this time enrolled at Notre Dame. Over the Party Line, the humorous section, is as mirth provoking as ever. A new fea- ture is the student directory. The Echo is under the supervision of Brother Gilbert, C. S. C., and James Belot, '23 is editor-in-chief of the stu- dents' staff.

The signifi- cance of the Work of the Catholic Mis- sionaries in pa- gan countries will dawn on us, if We let a few figures help us fix a picture in our minds about the extent of the Work which a comparatively small number of brave men and women have set about to do. Statistics of recent compilation fix the number of Catholics in all parts of the globe at 265,500,000, of whom 29,753,565 live in the various Catholic missionary countries. Include in this total of 29,753,565-regarded as a modest figure-463,000 belonging to European races. There are now at Work in the Catholic ,missions of the World 5,837 native missioners, 7,933 foreign missioners, 5,270 lay Broth- ers, 21,320 Sisters, 24,524 Catechists, 17,450 teachers--in all 82,334 per- sons. The number of Catechumens, that is those preparing for baptism, at the time of the compilation of these statistics, was 1,517,909 The Catholic Missioners have 42,- 968 stations, 28,470 churches and chapels, 147 seminaries for the educa- tion of priests, 189 schools for the training of catechists, 409 hospitals, 1,263 orphanges, 1,183 asylums, 214 other institutions and 62 printing es- tablishments. The Catholic Missions at present have also 5,912 students of theology and 3,638 catechist pupils. There are still about 1,200 million pagans to be gained for Christ. Ac- cording to the above figures there is one European Missionary to one and a half million pagans. . Vg J ,Y , 4 V V - QZZ4 -- i, In ,ij ' 1: .,L.f.,,!f A ff I N., .- in U 11:11 n 1 5 .

The first half was evenly contest- ed and the two teams were tied at 11 when the whistle blew for the rest period. Each had held the lead at different points in the first half. Rine- hart's long basket put us ahead at the start of the second half and the vars- ity continued to improve this advan- tage. They scored 11 points in the second half to their oppenents' six. Graf's good defensive play was one of the features of the game, Columbia City scoring but four field goals, three of them by Shook. Koehl scored four field goals and Rinehart three.

December 16 Badin Hall, of Notre Dame, proved a little two strong for our basketball tossers and we were forced to bow to a 15 to 11 defeat. This was our first defeat of the season, but the team showed up well against the more ex- perienced quintet. John H.

The Notre Dame aggregation play- ed a fast game on the floor and dis- played a fine passing game. Some ex- cellent defensive work on the part of Graf prevented them, from running their score higher. He broke up many attacks on our stronghold after Badin Hall had worked the ball down the floor into counting territory. Koehl played at forward, but had trouble in making his shots stick. Bushman and Belot counted the four field goals made by the varsity, each getting two. Gallagher and Cody each scored twice from the field for Notre Dame. The visitors used a squad of nine men during the game. Lineups and summary: C. C. H. S. C115 Koehl ............ Badin Hall 1151 F ........ Gallagher McCarron Bushman ......... F ..............

December 22 The varsity was again forced to submit to defeat when the fast La- grange five took them for the count of 27 to 17. Our team was at a dis- advantage on the small floor and they were never able to overcome this ob- stacle. The whole Lagrange team played a strong game, with Wills and Lewis as the outstanding stars. December 23 On the night following its defeat at Lagrange the team went on a spree at Howe and ran circles around the High School varsity there piling up a 50 to 6 score with our lads on the intoxicated end.

S. nosed out a victory over the strong Cathedral High team from Indianapolis by a score of 15 to 14. A good lead gained in the first half won for the local quintet, for in the second half they managed to score only three points. Central was lead- ing at the end of the first half by a score of 12 to 6. The game was marked by close guarding and inac- curate basket shooting on both sides, these factors combining to keep the score low. The Varsity had a hard time hitting the net in the second half during which they scored but one field goal. Koehl's work was the big feature of the varsity's play in the first half and his three baskets we1'e largely re- sponsible for giving them a good lead. Graf played a strong game at guard in the first half and the visitors se- cured but two field goals, both by Kelley. Cathedral started out to overcome the Central lead in the second half and finally overtook their opponents and tied the score at 13. Belot's field goal in the last few moments won the game for Central, Cathedral getting but one more point on a free throw. Koehl, Bushman and Graf played good ball for the locals and Belot fea- tured with the winning basket in the second half. For Cathedral, Kelley, Riley and Royse played well. wi Disarm the enemy of your study-progress by provid- ing your eyes with made-on-honor glasses.

C. first half by one point, came back strong in the of the game and gained a well-earned victory by a score of'30 to 24. Our cagers did not get their eyes on the basket until the second half was under way, and then Bushman and Koehl came through with a suc- cession of field goal that smothered the Lagrange team in the latter part of the game. The Lagrange men kept on even terms with the locals through a large part of the second half, first one team taking the lead and then the other. With only a few minutes to go, Central had a ten point lead, but Lagrange made a field goal and two points on free throws just before the whistle, cutting down the local margin to six points. The score at the end of the first half was 11 to 10, with Lagrange leading. Koehl and Bushman played star games. They worked well together, and between them registered 13 goals, Bushman getting nine of them. Bushman played his best game in the second half, when he counted six times from the field. Koehl's passing and all-around work was a big fea- ture, while Graf played a creditable game at back guard. Elderkin and O. Lewis led the Lagrange team. Lineups and summary: speedy La- H.

Koehl, Bushman and Belot each hit the net twice in the first half and gave the varsity a lead which was never in danger. Central continued her strong offen- sive in the second half and at the same time held the Lima quintet down to seven points. Pauley and Koehl were the big scorers for Fort Wayne in the second half.

After the first few minutes of the game, in which Grand Rapids t00k 3 slight lead, the varsity stepped to the front and were never headed. The game was played in four ten minute quarters, and after the first quarter there was never any doubt as to the outcome, Central continuing to pile up points while they held their op- ponents well in hand. Grand Rapids proved to be weak at back guard and our forwards frequently dribbled up to the net for short shots which met with no interference. The C. C. H. S. machine was hitting on all cylinders and every one of the six men who took part in the game took a hand in the scoring. Koehl was the big star, however, the for- ward getting a total of 10 field goals for 20 of the 47 points. Little Pauley subbing for Bushman at the other forward, did his part and hit the net five times. Graf played well at back guard. Powers scored for Grand Rapids at the start of the game, but Pauley tied the score with a field goal. Cou- ture put his team ahead again with a short toss that went through the hoop, but Koehl gave the locals the lead with two baskets in succession and they were never headed. The first quarter ended 12 to 6 and the half 27 to 9. Couture and Scannell were the best for Grand Rapids, whose defense cracked after the first quarter. C. C. H. s.

'U o 3 en 5 ECHO February 3 The following account of the C. C. H. S.-Kendallvile game was taken from the local Kendallville paper: Basket ball fans of this city have prob- ably never witnessed a more thrilling cag- ing exhibition at a local gym, than the one staged Saturday evening at the K. H. S. gymnasium between the K. H. S. quintet and the Fort Wayne Central Catholic high five. After fighting through the regular time schedule, the athletes battled for ten minutes in overtime periods. The score at the end of the second overtime period was 25 to 22, with the Fort Wayne cagers lead- ing. . With the first toot of the whistle, the cagers of both teams went into battle, dis- playing a fight to win spirit, which was maintained until the end of the game. In the first half, which ended 10 to 8, in favor of Fort Wayne, the fight was evenly matched, the victors winning out with one field goal. At the beginning of the sec- ond period, the tables turned for the locals and soon they were leading by six points. Three minutes before the end of the game the score stood 16 to 10, the remarkable work of the K. H. S. defense having held the Fort Wayne cagers from scoring in the half until that time. In the last three min- utes of play, Pauley, Fort Wayne, forward, scored from the field and Centlivre followed vsgth two pretty shots, making' the score 16 a . In the first five-minute overtime period, each team scored two field goals, again tieing the score at 20 to 20, and in the last overtime period the locals made one field goal while the Fort Wayne quintet cinched the game with one field goal and three free throws. Pauley was the star of the Fort Wayne team, scoring 13 of the 25 points made by the team. Bolton led in the Kendallville attack with eight points. Captain Bob Cal- kins, star center of the K. H. S., was out of the game because of injuries sustained in the game at South Whitley Friday evening. His position,4however, was ably filled by Paul Knight. Knight swished the net twice during the game and with Bolton led the attacks for the locals. As the game broke into the overtime per- iods, the enthusiasm reached its highest pitch among the fans. The walls echoed back a continual round of cheers and yells, and combined with this could be heard the martial tunes of the K. H. S. drum corps. Kendallville C225 Henry C. C. H.

One day, during a session of court, the judge in aris- ing from his bench caught his trous- ers on a great sliver and tore a huge hole in the back of them. Upon ad- journment, an attorney of a jocular turn of mind circulated a subscrip- tion paper for a new pair of trousers for the judge. When the paper came to Lincoln he wrote: I have nothing to contribute to the end in view. W indv: I could dance with you like this forever. Co-NV Oh: T think you will im- prove, Tommy.

THE LAST LAP With the April examinations over, the last lap of the scholastic year, the hardest stretch of road on the entire course, lay ahead. June and the finals are not far off now. There are only two months remaining, two Y ' if , :-.iA, me--3 jv' , Y. . 'A' 'Y' Y---'H f months which will determine the winners in the race. During these two months the work that was neglected during the first part of the semester must be made up, electric lights must burn deeper into the nocturnal hours than heretofore. Now that the days are warm and the soft touch of spring beckons one to shun one's books, and to shirk one's duty, to en- joy to the fullness the quiet spring eve- nings, to spend the days in idle dreaming, it behooves us, students, to remember that the day of reckoning is near at hand, and even though we have not fallen by the way- side in the first part of the race, now is not the time to falter, nor to let our fellow students out distance us. The hardest period of the scholastic year is before us. Long hot days spent in dreary 8 THE ECHO class rooms, painfully reviewing past mat- ter, certainly offer no alluring charm to the student. The opening of the baseball sea- son offers yet another outside attraction that will hold the student's interest and tend to draw his mind from his books. From now on until the middle of June, there will be many days when the class room seems almost unendurable, when the class periods seem endless. It is well to remember then during this time of trial that each day brings one nearer to the goal. The race is nearly won, the last lap has been reached and victory or defeat lies in this home stretch. l Memorial Day Memorial Day should now as never be- fore, become a day for emphasis on Amer- ican citizenship and American ideals. Amid the clash of classes, and the subdued but ever-present dangers to our country, true Americans ought to pledge new allegiance to the flag, not by mere sentiment and beautiful language, for that is cheap, but in noble living and helpful service. As we stand by the grave of our soldier dead and resolve to make our beloved coun- try an example to all the nations of the earth in justice, right, truth and equity, let us not overlook the dangers threatening our land. Amidst all the perils to which we are exposed, may God, Who has made us what we are, still preserve us as a nation. 5 Punctuality Be punctual, never late, be regular, at- tending school daily, be careful to observe the orders and instructions of your teacher, study your lessons diligently day by day. These small lessons are like the small bricks laid in a large building, like the small stitches in a rich, beautiful garment, like the small seeds placed in the soil that grow the and yield to a great harvest. Watch mason, the tailor, the farmer, observe the small efforts, then after sometime see beautiful mansion, the rich garment, the the growing field, all the result of small con- tinued persevering efforts. Thus also will your efforts be blessed if you act accord- ingly. Your small lessons are the small seeds placed in your mind and soul that will prosper to a great harvest. Remarkable Value of Good Books Good books are patient instructors. An ardent book collector of the Fourteenth cen- tury, Richard de Bury, who in life sur-- rounded himself with books, calls them masters who instruct Without rod or fer- rule, without angry words, without clothes or money. If you come to them, they are not asleep, if you ask or enquire of them, they do not withdraw themselves, they do not chide if you make mistakes, they do not laugh at you if you are ignorant. O books who alone are liberal and free, who give to all who ask of you and enfranchise all who serve you faithfully. Getting Out The Echo Getting out THE ECHO is no picnic. If we print jokes, folks say we are too silly. If we don t, they say we are too serious. If we publish original matter,-they say we lack variety. If we publish things from other papers, we are too lazy to write. If we stay on the job, we ought to be out rustling news. If we are rustling news, we are not at- tending to business in our own department. If we don't print contributions, we don't show proper appreciation. If we do p1'int them, the paper is filled with junk. If the faculty advisor or critic changes some passages, the paper is too stilted. If he slips up on a passage, he ought to be fired. If thirteen pages are devoted to sports, the paper is not well balanced. If eight pages are given to athletics and sports in general, the paper is unfair in minimizing an important part of school life. If we publish just such items as the Ath- letic Board sees proper to submit, we have nothing to print in the Athletic Section. If we play up the Alumni section, the news is stale. If we neglect the Alumni, the old grads get sore. If we print something worth while, the members of the faculty wrote it, or else we swiped it from such and such. Like as not, some fellow swiped this from an exchange. That's where we got a part of it. -Edwin O'NeilI, '23, 7 will say we THE ECHO 9 The Catholic School and the Catholic Child Occasionally Catholics are found who think that the Church's school legislation is somewhat exaggerated. Why, they ask, does the Church insist that Catholic chil- dren attend a Catholic school? Why does she restrict to the Bishop permission to at- tend a non-Catholic school? And is the lot of Catholics not hard enough without imposing' the heavy burden of maintaining a Catholic school in every parish? To answer these questions is not a diffi- cult task. It must be admitted that this legislation may impose a hardship, but that is also true of the Faith itself, particularly in these days of growing infidelity and lax morality. The Church requires Catholic parents to send their children to a Catholic school, because she knows that the school from which religion is excluded is a school in which Catholic children are exposed to the danger of loss of faith. If it be said that this legislation is narrow, it must be observed that every law is, in a sense, narrow, and must be so, since it cannot possibly tolerate the evil against which it is directed. Probably there was never a time in the history of the Church when the positive training which only the Catholic school can give, was more necessary. The spirit and principles of that world for which our Lord Himself, on the night before He died, would not pray, were never more active, or pre- sented in colors more alluring. The best protection against this un-Catholic spirit is a thorough training in the Catholic religion. Theoretically, this training can be given in the home, practically, this is rarely possible. How many parents have either the time or the ability to give their children a com- plete course in religion? Granting that they have both leisure and ability, other difficulties present themselves. Will they also be able to overcome the influence of non-Catholic teachers which, however suit- able for others, is not Catholic, and the at- tacks upon the Church, often found in the public school text-books? Under the most favorable circumstances, the Church can do no more than tolerate this condition. If it is inevitable, she can only urge upon parents renewed vigilance, but she can never ap- prove it as the training best fitted for the Catholic child. As sad experience has too abundantly proved, if the Catholic child is not trained in the Catholic school, the chances are that he will become neither a good Catholic nor a good citizen.

Errors In The Echo The editor does not want anyone to send him any more copies of his paper in which mistakes are found, complains a Missouri exchange. If they find a perfect copy, how- ever, he will pay a big price for it. If the fool critic who hunts for mistakes in news- papers would find them all, he would be kept busy. We will be pleased to buy copies of any paper which can be proven entirely free of errors, either typographically or in statement of fact. We will be pleased to find a merchant who never made a mistake putting up an orderg a lawyer who never lost a case through his own errors, a doctor who never wrongly diagnosed a case, a druggist who never made a mistake, a post- ofiice official who never put mail in the wrong box, a woman who never forgot to put in salt while she was cooking or to put tea in the teapot before putting in the water. Bring in some of your mistakeless paragons who find it so easy to criticize the school paper, and We'll give 'em the chance of their lives to find out whether they are really human. -E.rclm.ngz'. 10 THE ECHO EDUCATION - Education is not only a moral renovator and a multiplier of intellectual power, but it is also the most prolific parent of ma- terial riches. It has a right, therefore, not only to be included in the grand inventory of a nation's resources but to be placed at the very head of that inventory. It is not only the most honest and honorable, but the surest means of amassing property. A transgressor or a knave may forcibly or fraudulently appropriate the earnings of others to himself, but education has the pre- rogative of originating and generating property more rapidly than it was ever ac- cumulated by force, or fraud. It has more than the quality of an ordinary mercantile commodity, from which the possessor real- izes but a single profit as it passes through his hands, it rather resembles fixed capital, yielding constant and high revenue. As it enjoys an immunity from common casual- ties, it incurs no cost for insurance or de- fense. -Horace Mann. A Charitable Boy If any of our young folk remember the first time they earned any money of their own, they do not need to be told how proud they were of it and how good it looked, and they can recall the plans they made for dis- posing of it. Well, there was once a little fellow named Vincent who, when about twelve years of age, did some work, for which he was paid thirty cents. It was the first time he had ever earned anything, and he felt very well pleased with himself. The sum seemed quite a large one to him, and his first thought was: 'Tll take it home and Put it by till I can increase it by do- ing some more work. On the way home, however, Vincent met a man who was very poor, and his boyish heart was so touched by the sight of the man's miserable dress and half-starved ap- pearance that he at once gave him all his thirty cents, not keeping a single one for himself. That gift, I am sure, was as precious in the sight of God as if it were thirty dollars-for it was all the boy had. The charity thus displayed was but the fore- runner of countless charitable works which he was to perform as a mang for little Vincent was no other than the world-re- nowncd St. Vincent de Paul. Our Solitary Boast One of the noblest lines in English litera- ture is Wordsworth's tribute to the Mother of God- Our tainted nature's solitary boast! A Catholic of ge-nius could write that single phrase and die secure of fame. Wordsworth was not a Catholic, but was blessed at least once with the vision of per- fect spiritual beauty that surrounds the name of Mary. The Catholic has ready ac- cess to that vision in the reverent recital of the Rosary. Stanch devotion to the Chosen of all Women is the surest warranty of manly virtue. Boys Never be idle. Make few promises. Always speak the truth. Never speak ill of any one. Keep good company or none. Live. up to your engagements. Be just before you are generous. Earn money before you spend it. Drink no kind of intoxicating drinks. Keep your own secrets if you have any. Never borrow if you can possibly avoid it. Good character is above all things else. Never play at any kind of games of chance. Keep your promises if you would be happy. Make no haste to be rich, if you would prosper. When you speak to a person, look him in the face. Save when you are young, to spendwhen you are old. Never run in debt unless you see a way to get out again. Avoid temptation, through fear you may not withstand it. Ever live Cmisfortune exceptedl within your income. Small and steady gains give competency and tranquility of mind. Good company and good conversation are the sinews of virtue. Your character cannot be essentially in- jured except by yourself. If any one speaks evil of you, let your life be so that none will believe him. If your hands cannot be usefully em- ployed attend to the cultivation of your mind.-Selected. THE ECHO 11, Catholic Leaders The charge has often been made that the Catholic Church is opposed to science and progress. Below are a few of the lead- ing World's citizens who were Catholics. There are thousands of others, many of whom you perhaps know. The following were all Catholics: The first American to die in the great war-Thomas Francis Enright. The first American officer to die in the great war-Lieutenant William T. Fitzsim- mons. The last American oflicer to die in the great war was a Catholic priest, a lieuten- ant-chaplain, Rev. William F. Davitt. John Barry, the father of the American navy. The founder of the Red Cross, St. Camil- lus, of Lellis. Dante, world's greatest poet. Madame Curie, discoverer of radium. Roentgen, discoverer of the X-ray. The great electrician, Volta. The world's greatest architect, Bramante. Copernicus, world's greatest astronomer. Rossi, founder of Christian archeology. The world's greatest painter, Raphael. Pasteur, leading scientist of the nine- teenth century. Vesalius, father of anatomy. Gutenberg, inventor of printing. Mendel, one of the world's greatest biolo- gists, was an abbot. Dr. John B. Murphy, known as the world's greatest surgeon. Lavoisier, father of modern chemistry. Jenner, discoverer of vaccination. Stensen, father of modern geology, was a Bishop. Galvani, who gave the world galvanized iron. Leonardo Da Vinci, great engineer and painter. Columbus, who discovered America. Balboa, discoverer of the Pacific Ocean. Thomas Lloyd, father of American short- hand. Fathers and mothers who want their sons to have the right kind of a start in life want them to have a good Catholic High School and a Catholic College education. RT. REV. HERMAN JOSEPH ALERDING, D.D., BISHOP OF THE DIOCESE OF FORT WAYNE On Friday, April 13, Our Founder and Our Friend, the Right Reverend Herman Joseph Alerding, the beloved bishop of the Diocese of Fort Wayne, reached his seven- ty-eighth milestone in life. May the illus- trious and devoted sheperd, our founder and our friend, reign in our midst- Ad multos annos. He has counted his days, says the Indiana Catholic, not by the standards of what the world applauds, nor his great joys by what the world has given, nor by what others have attained, but by likeness unto his Divine Master, loving souls, bless- ing the world, faithful to all through the opportunity of today, and the life God has given him to live. Irrespective of creed, Bishop Alerding is held in the highest regard and esteem by the people of Fort Wayne. He not only graces the princely purple which he wears, but graces any gathering at which he is present. We, the students of the Central Catholic High School, felt highly honored by his presence at the Frdiay evening per- formance of the Senior annual play, and we are looking forward with pleasure to the honor of his presence at the commencement exercises. 12 THE MOTHERS OF GREAT MEN All that I am and all that I have I owe toimy mother. This was the beautiful tri- bute Lincoln paid to his mother. Although Lincoln was but ten years old when his mother died, yet in those few short years she had instilled into his mind those ideals and principles which later saved our na- tion. His mother urged him to read-by the light of the log fire-the few books he had. A taste of education spurred him on. How he worked to pay for that education is history, and the quality of that educa- tion is revealed in his Gettysburg Address. The mother of James Cardinal Gibbons, who was born in Baltimore in 1834, needed every penny her son could earn to help sup- port the family, since she was a widow with six children, but when she found that her boy Jimmy longed to enter the priest- hood, she gave him to the church. She managed to get along without his much needed earning, and did everything possible to aid him. Cardinal Gibbons' mother was the daughter of an Irish farmer. Upon her marriage she came to America. Her chil- dren were born here, but owing to her hus- band's health the family returned to Ireland where he died. Back to America, the land of promise, she came with her family. They were wrecked off the Bahamas, and lost what few worldly effects they had. But in New Orleans she began to struggle for them. Her son James had found employ- ment in a mercantile business and the wages were a Godsend. Yet when his mother found that he wished to enter the priesthood, nothing could stop her from helping him. She lived long enough to see him active in a parish, a successful and be- loved priest. Louis W. Hill, son of the late James J. Hill, Empire builder of the Westg had a remarkable mother, Mary Mehegan, daugh- ter oi' an Irish tailor. Mary was a wait- ress in a boarding house when James J. Hill met her, fell in love with and married her. And the beautiful little woman never changed in all her years. She was the same sincere, quiet, helpful woman when living in the five million dollar mansion in St. Paul, as when waiting cn table at a waterfront boarding house and she brought up hcr children so simple that there is no trace of snobbishness in them. They were ECHO taught by their mother that a person's worth was not in his clothes or his earthly possessions, but in his heart and mind. Thomas Edison was educated, aside from a few years at a country school, at his mother's knee. When he began helping to earn the family's daily bread by selling newspapers on the trains and there first learned about telegraph instruments. It was his mother who urged him to use his spare time to studyg it was his mother's far- reaching eye who saw the future of the wonderful invention. -James Belot, '23. The Rosary CBy Rev. P. H. MCCAULEYJ In olden days, long past and dead, The orientals wove a crown Of roses sweet to deck the head Of men and gods of high renown. And Christians, too, their garlands wove For Mary's brow, in crypt and shrine, Transferring, thus, from pagan Jove, The homage due our Queen divine. But soon a wreath of prayer and praise, More precious far than ought of gold, Replaced this crown of ancient days Among the nations of The Fold. VVhat Nazianzan saint of old, And Erin's holy daughter, too, In accents sweet did oft unfold, Saint Dom'nic taught in form anew. At length this wreath of flow'rs sublime, Which Christians wove on bended knee, Encircled eV'ry race and clime, And hence its name-The Rosary. A crown of roses-such we call This Chaplet of our lady fair, Whose mystic beads so well recall The saving truths we speak in prayer. No other prayer ascends on high, More redolent of hope and love: No better shield when danger's nigh, No surer guide to heaven above. It changes sinners' evil ways, And comforts in the hour of strifeg A peace it brings to all our days, And happiness at close of life. My Ros'ry Beads! My faithful friend! Consoler in my lonely hours! Be thou my solace to the end, Thou sweetest rose of all the flowers. THE ECHO 13 IN THE SPRINGTIME OF LIFE In the springtime of life, let us sow in our garden The seed of the flowers that now seems rare, The flowers that blossom and scatter their fragrance Along the dark pathway of trouble and care. What gladness will mean to the heart bowed with sorrow So friendship will bring to the one far from home, It costs us so little to God-speed each other And comfort the weary as on they must roam. In the garden of love, there's an old-fash- ioned flower 'Tis the blossom of a thought that was once planted there, But the rank weed of willfulness had al-- most destroyed it, That quaint little blossom-Bear and Forbear. Let us tenderly nourish those old-fashioned flowers And cull out the weeds of disorder and strife, Then of sweet tender memories we will reap a rich harvest From the seeds we have sown- In the springtime of life. -James Belot, '23. THANKS I'm poor in terms of hoarded wealth, I have no shiny gold, But I still have my love and health And so my heart is bold. For there are things in this first life That money cannot buy, Those things that come through honest strife And aid from God on high. And so I thank Thee, God of mine, For all that you have sent, I cannot quaff the castly wine, But Lord, I am content. -Maurice For, '23. The hope of every nation lies in the train- ing of its children. DEATH So this is death, Well I must say That death to life is merely play, For life to me was not sweet dreams My life was full of broken schemes. But death to me is like-Oh, well, I know you'1l guess for life was hell. Afraid to die-don't make me grin. My game's over, I'll just cash in For now I'm going to feel certain, Death's a beginning not a curtain. LIFE Life to all is a funny sight Who can tell what life is right? Life to a lover, his honey, Life to a miser, his money, To a rose, the rain and sunshine, To a drunk, his beer and wine, To the dog, his daily bone, And to a child, his ice cream cone. A smile, a tear, a curse, a prayer, The sound of voices on the air. -Robert Passino, '23. THE POET'S QUEST What is it that the poet seems to seek, As silently he gazes all alone On some remote and rugged, snow-capped peak, ' Or listens to some harp's entransic tone? What does the murmuring woodland brook- let say, Or does a seashore cove, wave-beaten bring? Why Naiad paths, on moonlight nights to stray, Or some aged, vine garbed palace of a king? A place in silence speaks more loud than words, And thus beheld is quick to cause a thought, These sights are nourishment for songs of birds, Who yet will seek them as they oft were sought. -George Fitzgerald, '23. THOSE HIGH SCHOOL BOYS They carry their books to school each day, They carry them home again, 'Tis not exactly useless, 'Twill make them stronger men. 14 THE ECHO Education Without Religion Is A Failure i DR. JOHN J. TIGERT. At the recent convocation of the School of Religion at Harvard University, Dr. John J. Tigert, the United States Commis- sioner of Education, made a strong plea for the moral and religious training of youth, declaring that education that confines itself entirely to the accumulation of knowledge Without regard to the will or intention of man is a menace to society. In its widest connotationf' said Commissioner Ti- gert, education is the result of all the forces which affect the life of man. Taken in this sense, religion is the most universal element in education, as well as a very powerful stimulus to human action. It is not only true that the notion of God exists and has existed in all species of mankind known to us, but is likewise true that the notion has every- where been a powerful force, if not actually the most powerful force, operating in the lives of men. In every form of communion with the supernatural, the notion of the Deity has been sufficiently powerful in its influence upon man to move him to make the su- preme sacrifices of his own life or the lives of those dearest to him .... There certainly has been no more impelling motive in the life of man than his belief in the Deity. Again, we think that sufficient significance has not been attached to the fact that among the great thinkers who have interpreted reality and who have explained the origin and the meaning of the cosmos, almost without exception these philosophers have re- quired the notion of the Deity to make the universe possible, intelligible, or thinkabie. Those few who have not required the Deity for an explanation of the universe do not loom up among the great figures in the histo1'y of philosophy. We have atheists among the Greek philosophers in Democritus and Leucippus, but they sink into insignificance as compared to such theists as Pythagoras, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and others. We do not recall an outstanding atheist to match against the cloud of theologians and School- men of the middle ages. Among the moderns, Diderot and the so-called French encyclopedists, a few Ger- mans, including Haeckel, a small number of English- men and others who compose the atheistic schools of thought, hardly are recognized within the pale of philosophy in a large sense. As against these stand Descartes, Leibnitz. Spinoza, Locke, Berkeley, Kant, Fichte, Hegel, Lootze: in America, James, Bowne, Ladd: and a whole host. of others who include with- in their number the great names of modern philoso- phy, who have grappled seriously with the explana- tion of this world and who have traveled many paths, but have all 1'cached the same destination- God. If education consists in the evolution of the man's inherent capacities or untying 'the bundle of possi- bililies': if religion he a universal phenomenon among men, and if great thinkers find God indispensable to the explanation of reality, then education which lacks the religious element is certainly seriously defective. Education which devotes itself entirely to re dis- covery of knowledge without regard for the will or intention of man is likely to prove the undoing of society. Certainly, it is not worthy to be called edu- cation. Ethical Teaching Insufficient. How shall we direct the will and train the heart as we enlighten the intellect? Naught but religious feeling, the inspiration of the soul, and faith in God can accomplish this. Even ethical teaching and mor- ality, though helpful, will not suffice. Moral philos- ophy may be similar to other knowledge, the product of man's mind, but not a force which controls his acts. There are abundant examples of the failure of ethical teaching to affect life. France has given non- religious moral training a more thorough trial per- haps than any other nation. And yet, says an emi- nent authority, 'In fifty years criminality has in- creased three-fold, though there was scarcely any in- crease in population. This statement was made be- fore the war and does not comprehend the violent in- crease of crime since the war. One French professor complained, 'My prize pupil in morals is the biggest knave of the lot.' But this moral instruction requires they reinforce- ment of religious teaching and feeling .... Ros- seau, a great name in the history of education and philosophy, gives us his ideal training for Emile and dwells especially upon the value of his moral code, meantime neglecting shamefully the rearing of his own child and engaging in dissolute living. His con- fessions are amazingly frank, but even they do not uncover the vileness of his life. Morality is indeed the worthy helpmate of re- ligion, but history and experience reveal over and over again that it can not be substituted for it. Ethical societies have failed to supplant the Church. Truths That Are Not Popular. I am well aware that the position that I am tak- ing is not popular today among educators, but I re- iterate the words of a chancellor of one of our col- leges uttered in his inaugural address more than a decade ago, 'Powerful as is the force of opinion to- day in the direction of secularized education, mighty as are the millions devoted to that purpose, earnest and numerous as are the advocates of education with- out religion . . . yet I am undismayed. For there is a power greater than the opinion of men: there are resources vaster than the millions of earth. Let us not trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God'. An Echo You always know what an echo will do: Whatever you say. it sends back to you: If you speak gently with voice low and sweet, The echo your words and tone will repeat.. If your words are cross and your voice is shrill, The answering voice sounds crosser still: Send a pleasant call with might and main, You will hear a happy shout again. When we are happy and cheery and bright, The world around us is sure to go right: NVe must be careful of voice and of word, For they come back-as life's echo is heard. -Selected. THE ECHO 15 Sylvan Lake Long ages ago King Boreas built up a great mountain of ice, and, with this mighty weapon, he proceeded southward, determined upon adding the whole of North America to his frigid empire. He moved onward, unmolested till he came to the north central states. There the great King Aeolus met him with an army of warm southern winds. A battle royal ensued. Vanquished, Boreas was forced to retreat, leaving on the Held of battle his terrible arms. Of this primeval contest many trace are to be found in northern In- diana, in the shape of countless lakes of surpassing beauty. Of these bodies of water none is more charming than Sylvan Lake, situated forty miles north of Fort Wayne. Sylvan Lake has an area of about six square miles. Its outline is very irregular. Thought it is usually di- vided into three parts, there are many smaller connecting sheets of water. Of these major parts only one, which has the shape of a very rough circle, is bordered by cottages. Very well, indeed, does this spot de- serve the name of Sylvan Lake. On all sides the low hills that rise from the water's edge are covered with a thick growth of trees and shrubs. Near the cottages the hand of man can be noticed on the vegetation, else- where it is as it came from the Cre- ator. At various places gaps in the woods present wonderful vistas of fields of ripening grain to the delight- ed eye. The water is a limpid green, and to everyone it extends an irresistable in- vitation for a delightful, refreshing swim in its cool depths. To the patient fisherman the lake holds out promises of a long string cf bass, perch, or blue-gills. The rowing or canoeing enthusiast has ample sport, Without the dangers so often attendant at a larger lake. More delightful than these enjoy- ments, however, is the rest,-the tranquility of spirit produced by the marvelous beauty of the place. And more especially is this trouble felt in the evening,-at the end of a perfect day. The sun slowly wheels his huge red disk down the western wall of the firmament. N earer and nearer he sinks to the horizon. His glorious rays and resplendent countenance send out a long rudy reflection over the surface of the water. A solitary sailboat makes its way out from land, and soon a wonderful picture is formed as it stands silhouetted against the setting sun and the crim- son sky. Clouds appear, and rising, meet and conceal the Lord of heavens as he goes to his rest below the hori- zon. The day is done. Twilight comes on, and the opposite shore fades in the distance. The birds go to their rest, and the frogs commence their croaking in the marshes. Far away lights begin to twinkle. Across the lake there floats the delightful music of a string orchestra, or the plaintive notes of a bass saxaphone. Ever and anon the wierd hoot of an owl re- sounds from the depths of the forest, and the echo takes up and repeats it four or five times. And now, when all nature has fallen asleep, there steals softly and clearly over the face of the water the charming call of the Vesper bell, inviting man to come and give thanks to Him, who, in His al- mighty power, has seen fit to create such wonderful beauty for His weak, lowly children. -Robert Suelzer, 293. lo THE ECHO A HYMN roi: MAY V QB. G.p ,O Spotless Mother, Mystic Rose, Thy purity like Carmel's snows, O may my life a candle be To burn out bright for love of thee! O Spotless Mother, Mary mild, Chosen to bear the Holy Child, Make fit my mind and heart to be A dwelling place for God and thee! O Patient Mother, tried by sorrow, Strengthen me for life's tomorrow, Our time is brief and soon 'tis past This very day is fleeting fast. O Mother, help me live for thee, Mother, shelter me!

QUEEN OF THE SEASONS O Mary, all months and all days are thine own, In thee lasts their joyousness, when they are gone, And we give to thee Mary, not because it is best, But because it comes first, and is pledge of rest. -Cardinal Newman. Salutation of the Blessed Virgin Hail, holy Lady, most holy Queen, Mother of God, Mary who art never Virgin, chosen from Heaven by the most Holy Father, whom He has consecrated with the most holy beloved Son and the Ghostly Paraclete, in whom was and is all the fulness of grace and all good. Hail thou His palace! Hail thou His tabernacle! Hail thou his house. Hail thou His garment! Hail thou His handmaid! Hail thou His Mother and all ye holy virtues which by the grace and illumi- nation of the Holy Ghost thou infusest in the heart of the faithful, that from infidels ye mayest make them faithful to God. -ST. FRANCIS. When the devil wishes to make himself master of a soul, he seeks to make it give up devotion to Mary.-Sf. Alplzonsus. The devotions we practice in honor of the glorious Virgin Mary, however trifling they be, are very pleasing to her divine Son, and He rewards them with eternal glory.- St. T eresa. Mary having always lived wholly de- tached from earthly things and united with God, death, which united her more closely to Him, was extremely sweet and agreeable to her.-St. Alphorisus. To assure our salvation it does not suf- fice to call ourselves children of Mary, therefore let us always have the fear of God-St. Teresa. Let us have recourse to Mary, for of all creatures she is the highest, the purest, the most beautiful, and the most loving.- BZ. Henry Suso. Blessed are the actions enclosed between two Hail Marys.-St. Alphonsus. Guided by intelligence, a strong will is the greatest of all blessings, the servant of stupidity, it is nothing but a curse. -Selected. Things to Remember To make the sign of the cross reverently at all times. To genuflect reverently on entering and leaving your seat in church. To keep your eyes fixed upon the altar while saying your rosary. To be in the church when Mass begins and to remain until the priest leaves the alta1'. To remember that the church is God's house, that Jesus is present upon the altar and that you owe Him reverence and de- votion which you can only show by your quiet, respectful manner. The darkest shadow in the sunshine of life is generally a man's own shadow. Good manners are made up of petty sac- rifices. Study of the Constitution of the United States is to be made compulsory in the schools of New Jersey, according to a bill passed by the assembly. THE ECHO l7 A. D. 1958-A Retroprospect I just received an odorgram from Father Fitzgerald, secretary to the Right Reverend Robert Boyle, Bishop of Rome City, asking me to transmit what information I have about the old C. C. H. S. class of '23. Alerding University, the outgrowth of the Cen- tral Catholic High School, is going to celebrate the golden jubilee of the es- tablishment of higher Catholic educa- tion for boys in Fort Wayne, and Bishop Boyle, of the class of '23, has taken upon himself the burden of jubilee historian. Before I proceed with my story, I may as well account for the See of Rome City. It happened that four years after our class was graduated, the old Cathedral square with its quaint old buildings was taken over by right of eminent domain by the city and the bishopric by request of Bishop Alerding, was transferred to Rome City. The high school, now Alerding University, obtained a de- sirable location near Centlivre Park, and is now one of the most up-to-date Catholic universities in the state of Indiana. Mayor Kallmyer, of New Haven, told me the other day that he had a message from Ambassador Donahue, of Dublin, announcing the death of Joe Perrey, editor of Free Ireland. Poor Joe had a varied career. He started out as a cartoonist, turned de- tective, left that and started to pub- lish the Mexican Bull. He was ban- ished as a red, so from there he went to England, where he sold bonds for the C. I. O. U. Loan Company of Mayo. iThe greater part of the last sixteen years of his life has been spent in newspaper work in Dublin. He happened to be visiting in London at the time of the destruction of St. Paul's Cathedral, and he was a vic- tim of that awful explosion. Yes, and George Gordong Radio was his hobby. His great discovery was that vision as well as sound could be transmitted by radio. The poor unfortunate tried to carry the thing too far and as a result now occupies a suite of padded rooms in Dr. Mc- Evoy's hospital for the mentally pre- occupied at Decatur. Poor George thinks he is the president of the greatest radio engineering school in the world. Dr. McEvoy is the same old Paul we had in school with us for the first three years of our high school work. Paul really belonged to our class, and would have been one of our graduates if he had not rushed off to Campion to get an early start on his pre-medics. Suelzer spent his early days as a grocer but after the concentrated pill form of food found a permanent place in the world, Suelzer left the grocery business and started to work on the conservation of the air's en- ergy. He is the father of modern air traffic, being the first man to use the air's energy to run his cesmobile. He was helped to a great extent in this line by Prof. Smith's discovery of ar- tificial regulation of atmospheric con- ditions due to the contraction and ex- pansion of the vapor of elementine. I lost trace of McCarthy until Seni- tor Koehl started a nation-wide cam- paign against tobacco. In his cru- sade he pictured the wretched suffer- of a certain Edwin lVIcCarthy, died of the excessive consump- of cigarettes after fourteen ings who tion years of intense suffering. Norbert is the father of the Koehl Act or the twenty-third amendment which pro- hibits the thought, desire, or use of tobacco under penalty of ninety-nine 18 THE years in Payne. Koehl's best friend, Mike Kinder, harbored an illegal de- sire for the weed and was the first victim of the obnoxious law. Litot made a neat little fortune on his cork-screw museum and store. Every family must have a few an- tiques in this line-all heirlooms, of course-so Litot took to the manufac- ture and sale of antiques. Joe Clifford, after a varied career in the talking movies, joined the life- guard at Palm Beach. He attended our class reunion at Alerding Uni- versity in 1948. There were ten of us there and the little souvenir Echo we got out at that time is a great help to get data together now. Jeff Ryan is now doing social and literary work in Russia. His recent hit, The Epidermis, or the Outer Skin of a Czardine, gives vivid de- tails of our friend, Robert Piassino, and the effect of the Passino soap products in Siberia. Postmaster General Edwin O'Neill is a regular blue law advocate. He recently barred from the U. S. mail service, Bun Kinstle's talking-photo- play, entitled In the Good Old Days, or an Afternoon at Floyd's. James Belot, editor-in-chief of the Echo during our senior year, and later editor of J0'Zl'l '7'LCll-S6'FLt6lff6, has recently invented a radium press, and has forsaken the newspaper game to make a fortune selling his new inven- tion. The priesthood and the religious life offered attractions for a goodly number of our old boys. Besides Bishop Boyle and Father Fitzgerald already mentioned, Walton Hedekin is now Brother Abdiel and is doing untold good among the natives in the Holy Cross missions of Bengal. Fa- ther Maurice Fox, after teaching ECHO Iiatin for a number of years in the Dillon Seminary for Colored Catho- lics at Savannah, was killed in the race riot of '41, Bresnahan also en- tered religion and is professor of Irish History and Poetry at Alerding University. After the Blue Laws of Indiana spread throughout the na- tion, and baseball was forbidden, A1- bert Schoenle realized the vanity of worldly glory, and entered the clois- ter of La Trappe. Fort Wayne still claims a goodly number of the old boys of '23. Aus- tin Centlivre's cesmobile plant is one of the largest in the world. The Au Cent Building is also a monument to his constructive genius. Schiffli, Who perfected the odorgraph fan in- strument for sending and receiving messages by a deffusion of odorsj is head of the Schiffli Institute of Odor- graphy in this city. Fink and Kinstle, successors to Wolf Sz Dessauer's, spe- cialize in elastic clothing and concen- trated foodstuffs. McKiernan, of Goolop fame, has a princely mansion on Centlivre Drive, and is living on the interest of his money. Huguenard took to Law and is now the Blue Law Commissioner of Indiana. Rinehart, sports editor of the J ournal-Sentette, is struggling with his vitaphone and hopes for success. Just two more need be accounted for, and as we go to press, I have located them. Franklin Bishop is pur- suing his insect study of Mars. As a side issue he is teaching the Marzo- nians how to play the Victory March, While Murphy is planting potatoes on the fertile banks of the Marzonian canals, and I'm struggling for a liv- ing writing imaginary stories such as you have just read. -Eugenle Call, 223.

American Catholic Missionaries Are Wanted In India BROTHER PETER, C. S. C. How many times American missionaries hear the Hindus and Mohammedans say: We want to be like the people of your country! Do they know anything about America? Most of them know little or nothing about Americag know only what they hear from the Hindus or Mohamme- dans who have visited America. These re- late to the Indian students what they saw, what they learned, and what impressions Americans made on them. Not one of the Hindus or Mohammedans returning from America to India but has praise for the United States and for the people of the United States. We read in India books about America, Written in English and in Bengali, by Hindus and Mohammedans, and one realizes how the American spirit works on them, works for their benefit, because they admire and love America. Babu, G. B. Lal, stated in one of his articles: That India can give much to the Westerner goes without saying. But at present she has to receive much from the West-receive, that is, not autocratic imposition, but the partic- ular Western impulse of instinct, intellect and idealism combined-the spirit, the real spirit, and particularly the American spir- it. Babu, G. B. Lal, made this statement because he knows the Indian and he knows the American people. In my five years' constant contact with the Hindus and Mohammedans I find them, even the lower castes, admirers and lovers of America. On my arrival at Bandura fa village 27 miles from Daccaj, a Mohamme- dan asked me, Sir, are you from England or France?,' I answered, Nog I'm from the United States. In three or four hours a crowd was around the house, wanting to see the Shaheb from the United States. I had brought with me a small American axe. Everyone in the village wanted to see and to try the axe from America. It was a very poor axe, but it was from the United States, and so it looked good to them. The people liked to hear about the United States. Peo- ple so well disposed toward the United States will surely listen to a man from the United States, and a missionary, priest, brother or sister from this country can do 20 THE ECHO any amount of good, both for their temporal and spiritual welfare. The good Father Hennessy commenced an English high school for the natives in 1912. Hindus and Mo- hammedans flocked to him. They loved him, for they said: Father Hennessy is so good to us, he likes us and we profit so much by his lessons. I asked them, Why do you like Father Hennessy? They told me: He is a good priest, he is an Irish- man, he comes from America. This dis- position no doubt leads them on to educa- tion, to religion-to true Catholic education, to the Catholic religion. Babu, G. B. Lal, stated further in his book: For the vast bulk of the Indian people it may be a good thing to adopt some form of religion that, while permitting the full play of their own artistic and emotional genius, will also re- late them to Western life. That is why I am interested in the possibilities of Catho- licism-that is truly Catholic in spirit, the kind one meets in America. This statement certainly contains reason, and no one can fail to see in it the trend of the Indian mind. The people of India, and particular- ly in the Bengal Province, are superstitious and are governed by customs and prescribed religious formalities, much the same as the Jews were at the time of our Lord's birth. But when these people come in contact with an American priest they place in him a cer- tain amount of confidence and forget, little by little, their customs, their formalities and their superstitions. Just to illustrate: Hindus and Mohammedans invited Father Kehoe, who was stationed at Golla, Dacca District, to their homes, came to see him, talked with him, brought him fruit and milk, etc., asked him for prayers, and even a high-caste Hindu asked him to offer Mass in order to obtain rain-they trusted him and they loved him. The native Christians were drawn to Father Kehoe by his win- ning Irish-American ways, they came in flocks to Mass, Benediction, to Confession, they came to him for advice and consola- tion, they had full confidence in him. This is why Babu, G. B. Lal, states: That is why I am interested in the possibilities of Catholicism-that is truly Catholic in spir- it, the kind one meets in America. Fur- ther, Babu G. B. Lal says: Christianity, rejected by the high-caste Hindus when of- fered by the Scotch or English Protestant hand, may yet take root in India if brought there by Americans of Irish Catholic par- entage and frame of mind. I would sub- stitute instead of may yet take root, will certainly take root, as it has already taken root, the seed has already been cast by the Irish Christian Brothers and the . Jesuit Fathers. These good, devoted and zealous men spread true Catholic education among the natives, cultivate in them the love of study and love of reading, and in a short time the high-caste, middle-caste, low-caste or no-caste Hindu and Mohammedan dis- covers his own religion false, the Protestant religion unsatisfactory, and the Catholic religion the true and only religion. Let the Irish, the American, go to India with his push and pull, his pep, his devotion to Work, his zeal, his love of souls, and, with the help of God, pagan, idolatrous India will become not only Christian but Catholic. The Catholic Church is ever anxious for education, education principally in religiong for religion regulates life and is the inspira- tion for duty and activity. Twelve Things to Remember 1.

THE Between acts popular songs were sung by the Freshmen and Senior Glee Clubs. Thomas McKiernan, Maurice Smith and Edmund Bresnahan also entertained with humorous songs and witticisms. Not in the Regular Army, a farce in one act, was presented by the Vacation cast, with Eugene Cull in the leading role as Johnny Slick, the recruiting officer. All of the other players presented themselves for enlistment and he in turn collected money for uniforms and promised to take care of their valuables until their return from war. He already had an outfit of nine men, whom he was putting through a riot- ous drill, when Albert Schoenle, as Officer No. 23, appeared on the scene, took Slick in- to custody and the irregular army dis- banded.

Vacation, an original comedy in two acts, and Not In the Regular Army, a farce in one act, were given by the eleven young men in the cast. The players were accompanied by Senior Glee Club members, who furnished both the vocal and instrumental music. The players accepted the invitation extended by Rev.

We - fdel' 3 f' 8716 SENIURS' ANNUAL PROGRAM, APRIL 26 AND 27 Capacity audiences Thursday and Friday evenings, April 26 and 27, greeted the Seni- ors in their third annual program. The double bill was one of the most humorous ever presented and every number found fa- vor with the audience. The work of the orchestra, composed of Harold Whitmer, John Burke, Melvin Waltz, Donald Mulhaupt, Edward Barnett, Franklin Bishop, James Smith, John Fitz- gerald, Edward Flood, Edward Kallmyer, Joseph Schneider and Brother Vitus, was highly effective, and several selections were rendered. The Freshmen Glee Club, composed of Carl Pequignot, Leonard Heit, Elmer Lasus, Richard Bently, Stephen Kelleher, Morris Clove1', Jack Cain, Harry McCollem, Ernest Miller, Gerald Zehender, with Neil Thomp- son accompanist, made a distinct hit with the audience between the act in Vacation. The Senior Glee Club, composed of James Belot, Edwin McCarthy, Maurice Smith, Patrick Donahue, Edmund Bresnahan, Rob- ert Suelzer, Austin Centlivre, Thomas Mc- Kiernan, with Franklin Bishop accompa- nist, added greatly to the entertainment of the evening. Vacation, an original comedy in two acts, presented a camping scene in the woods and the same camp by moonlight. While the sketch aiorded the young men ample opportunity for the introduction of popular songs, the various roles were clever- ly impersonated. Robert Rinehart as Her- bert Wells, alias Jim Parr, formerly cashier of the Empire Bank, and serving as a guide for the vacationists, played the leading role. Edward Kallmyer, as Jack Ashton, of the New York Daily Cyclone, proved how good a pal a real newspaper man can be and be- friended Parr in his difliculties. Albert Schoenle, as Mr. Pemberton, president of the Empire Bank and former employer of Herbert Wells, was one of the campers. He at first failed to recognize in the guide his former cashier whom he had not permitted to make explanation when a deficit was dis- covered, but discharged him. The young man under a cloud had sought the woods and became a guide. Eugene Cull, as Cur- tis Dunbar, a truly good young man, suc- ceeds Wells as cashier, but in the develop- ment of the play it is discovered that he is the culprit guilty of embezzlement. His strenuous efforts to induce Pemberton to leave the camp before he learns the truth, arouses suspicion. The arrival of Joseph Clifford, as Rag- gles, now a tramp, a former odd-job man at the bank, who tells Wells that he is ac- cused of appropriating S55,000, creates a stirring situation. Pemberton attempts the life of Wells who is saved through the ef- forts of Raggles, and in the meantime Jack Ashton acquaints Pemberton with the facts in the case. Herbert Wells is exonerated and restored to his place in the bank and the embezzler is taken into custody. The camping scene would be incomplete were it not for Edmund Clancy, impersonated by Edmund Bresnahan, and Thomas McKier- nan, appearing as Toots, the negro cook. Dick Percival, a leading actor in the Bon Ton theater, New York, is Franklyn Bishop, the popular pianist of the Senior Glee Club, and a member of the C. C. H. S. orchestra. His role was well played. James Belot, as Old Obidiah Siggins, a farmer with an eye for business, and Edwin O'Neill, as Young Obidiah, his son, kept the house in an up- roar. Patrick Donahue, as G. Elliott Bray- ton, a sweet member of New York society, was the central figure in several situations and never permitted a dull moment. Frank J.

Z6 THE ECHO REV. CHAS. GIRARDOT HEARD AT C. C. H. S. Michigan City Priest Announced as Donor of Oratory Gold Medal. Rev. Charles Girardot, assistant at St. Mary's church, Michigan City, and chaplain of the Indiana State Prison, addressed the students of the Central Catholic High School on Vllednesday morning, April 18. In his talk he treated of the observance of law, punishment or its violation and re- ferred directly to the State Prison. Students were also encouraged in their good work and in the fulfillment of their duties to God and country. Brother Daniel, C.S.C., announced that Father Girardot, the first alumnus of the C. C. H. S., will make presentation of the oratory gold medal. It was formerly given by Rev. William C. Miller, late pastor of Sacred Heart church, Whiting, Ind.

This was the first appearance for the members of the Freshmen class, whose representatives in the persons of Francis Corbett, Leonard Heit and Carl Pequignot made a decided hit with the Faculty and students. The address of the day was given by Bro. Daniel, C. S. C., our principal, who dwelt at length on the Life of Wash- ington, stressing in a particular manner on the youth and service of our great leader. The program was as followsz' SelectionsfNational Airs ....... C. C. H. S. Orchestra The Birthday of Washington.. ........ Leonard Heit 'WVasl1ington's Training ' ............

Miner, C.S.C., of Washington, D. C., was a visitor in Fort VVayne April 25 and 26. During his stay he was a guest of the members of the fac- ulty, and a visitor to the school. On Wed- nesday afternoon he addressed the students and on Thursday evening was present at the Senior play. He left the next morning for Indianapolis. In his talk Wednesday afternoon, Father Miner said in part: As field worker for the Bengalosc, I am here to thank you for your assistance and all co-operation in ad- ECHO vancing the missions to where they are to- day. The students of the Brothers of the Congregation of the Holy Cross in Fort Wayne and Indianapolis are responsible for what has been done for the past four years. The iirst check we received was from Indi- anapolis, and with that we started the Ben- paid galese. When we received yours we Father Noll for the first issue. The pro- and ceeds of your annual mission game your other contributions are an encourage- ment to the twenty priests, the twenty Brothers and the forty Sisters who are giv- ing their all to bring the millions of pagans to the feet of Jesus Christ. EX-PRINCIPAL VISITS C. C. About the middle of March we were agreeably surprised by a brief visit from our dear old friend, Brother Owen, C.S.C., Superior of Sacred Heart College, and Post- ulate, Watertown, Wis. Brother Owen was a very popular teacher at the Central Cath- olic High School from 1918 to 1921. He was principal here from September, 1920, until he was called to the very responsible posi- tion he now holds as Superior of the Post- ulate of the Brothers of the Congregation of Holy Cross. In a talk before the student body, he re- viewed things as he used to see them and brought up remembrances that were of par- ticular interest to the Juniors and Seniors who well remember the days of real sport. He contrasted the old conditions with the new, and said he was sure that all would appreciate the new opportunities afforded by the many improvements around the building. In the more serious phase of his talk he urged all to make the most of the opportunities of the present and to build up characters that would stand the storms of after life. As a means he suggested greater devotion to prayer and the sacraments and expressed himself as highly pleased to see so many of the students receiving Holy Communion the mornings he was here. He described his present work and pointed out that while he has under his care about 50 promising boys and young men who have heard the Master's voice, Come, follow me. Yet there is room for many more and that nothing would please him better than to have Fort Wayne represented in Water- town by some of the boys of the Central Catholic High School.

Apply Yourself 30 THE ECHO Education One cannot draw water from a deep dwell with a short rope. Learning without thought is labor lost, thought without learning is perilous. -Confucius. The gods cannot help a man who loses opportunities. -Chinese Proverb. The doctrine that all men are creat- ed equal is a false doctrine. We all know that men are not created equal, nothing is equal. Providence did not see fit to do this. Everyone starts out in the world a little diiferently en- dowed from everyone else. All have inherited handicaps. However, this does not mean that whatever ad- vantage one has over the other need remain permanent. An all-wise Prov- idence has supplied us with ability to learn. The man who puts ten thousand dollars additional capital into an es- tablished business is pretty certain of increased returns, and in the same way the man who puts additional capital into his brain will as surely- yes more surely-get increased re- turns. There is no capital and no in- crease of capital safer and surer than that. Progress to be constructive and en- during must be governed by a vision beyond today, and this can best be accomplished by proper education. The recognition of the necessity of religious training is not limited to our Catholic people. In fact, it is al- most as universal as the intelligence of the nation itself. If you exclude re- ligion from the training of youth, you take vigor from the state, the government, and society. You make impossible the upholding of moral standards. THE TEACHING BROTHER'S LIFE ' Thousands of people breathe, move and live, and pass oi the stage of life, and are heard of no more. Why? They do not a particle of good in the world, and none was blessed by them, no one could point to them as the instrument of their redemption, not a line they wrote, not a word they spoke, could be recalled, and so they perished- their light went out in the darkness of eter- nity, and they were not remembered more than the insects of yesterday. Will you thus live and die? Live for something! Do good and leave behind you a monument of virtue that the storms of time can never destroy. Write your name by kindness, love and mercy on the hearts of thousands you come in contact with, year by year, and your name and memory will never be forgotten. No, your name, your memory and your deeds, will be as legible on the hearts and lives of those you leave behind as the stars on the brow of a crip December night. Your good deeds on earth will shine as bright as the very stars in the heavens. So let your life be lived!- St. Anrfs Monthly, fNew York.j FACTS WORTH KNOWING How very few of our Catholic people ever stop to realize that in the United States there are: 17 Archbishops, 94 Bishops, 22,- 545 priests, 17,062 Catholic Churches, 108 seminaries, 8,778 seminarians, 236 colleges for boys, 723 academies for girls, 6,406 parishes with schools, 1,922,420 children at- tending these schools, 312 orphan asylums, 47,971 orphans, and 118 homes for the aged, and that the total Catholic population is 18,260,793 These figures are given in the Official Catholic Directory for 1923. No tuition fees are charged at,Creighton University, Omaha, Nebr., except for pre- medical courses. More than 100,000 Pennsylvania school children who were neither absent nor tardy during the past school year received honor certificates signed by the state superintend- ent of public instruction.

Our class was selected to act as sole agents for the tickets for the Senior performance, Friday night, April 27th. The Sophomore bulletin, showing how the ticket sale progressed, created a great deal of interest and rivalry among the members of the class. On Wednesday morning, April 18th, we held a class meeting at which Zuber, Libb- ing, Hartman and Foohey were the chief speakers. Our annual picnic was the big question settled. It was decided to hold the picnic Memorial Day, and committees were appointed to look after the various needs so that nothing would be left undone to make the picnic at Blue Lake the event of the season. Bud McCarthy who was elected the most popular pest in the Sophomore class is in trouble again. The way he wears that cute little grown on his noble face is a perfect shame. By his appearance he will soon be so old that he will be coming to school with a cane. At any rate he won't need a false face when he lets his beard grow. Well, to make a short story long, his trouble is simply this: As he is the most popular boy in the class, he was voted to name the Ben- gal Baby the class bought. When the billboard sweaters were thrown out by Coach Flaherty and Company, seven sophomore football players received them. If you would know Who's Who in the Sophomore year just read over the following list of names: Adamski, Baltes, Barnett, Becker, Berghoff, Burke, Cullen, DeWald, Doyle, llicrkes, Eggeman, Flood, Fink, Joe Foohey, Jerome Foohey, Fordyce, Robert Franke, Steve Kranke, Gallagher, Harber, Hartman, Haffner, Huth, Heinze, Jenny, Jordon, Kearns, Kinnerk, Kline, Kallmyer, Keller, Kelly, Lassus, Libbing, Logan, Ori, Moran, Morris, Miskel, Mulhaupt, Mulligan, Muldoon, Morrison, Thomas McCarthy, Wil- liam McCarthy, McCormick, McLaughlin, Noll, Parrot, Patten, Pepe, Perrey, Pequig- not, Roy, Schuller, Steckbeck, Steinbacher, Strebig, Shea, Smith, Waltz, Weber, Whit- mer, Campbell and Zuber.

The Freshmen took the championship in the Junior league in basketball when the Freshmen Pennants won from the Sopho- more Tigers by a score of 10-7 in the pre- liminary to the annual Mission game. In order to prepare themselves to follow the footsteps of their seniors, the Fresh- men have organized a Glee club composed of the following members: Carl Pequignot, Leonard Heit, Elmer Lassus, Richard Bent- ley, Stephen Kelleher, Morris Clover, J ack Cain, Harry McCollem, Ernest Miller and Gerald Zehendner, with Neil Thompson as accompanist. The Glee club has made several success- ful appearances during the past few months, their top-notch performance being a part of the public entertainment between the acts of the Senior play. The Easter vacation was enjoyed by all. We are now looking ahead to a little free follow- time Ascensicn Thursday and the ing Friday. On one of these days we eX- pect to have a real for sure picnic and on the other we will have our field day events. We are preparing a few original stunts for these events and we hope to be the winners of a great share of the inter-class contests. Several members of the Freshmen class attended Father Lothamer's festivities at Columbia City, Easter Monday evening. President Corbett, unable to re'turn to school on Tuesday morning, sent his excuse by Alpheus Bailey. Bailey got things mixed and the boys had a great laugh on Corbett. When we returned after Easter we found that one of our best students had moved to Jefferson City, Mo. We refer to Clayton Howard who while he was with us received a general average of over 9792 in his work. Clayton reached his new home on Monday and was in school Wednesday morning. We observed the Feast of the Patronage of St. Joseph in a rather unique way. We assisted at the high Mass in the Cathedral and incidently witnessed a double wedding, after which we held a class meeting until ten o'clock. We had our regular study period and noticed that the prefect was un- usually good-natured. At the end of the study period an entertainment and a talk by Father Gerardot was announced. In the afternoon we had group pictures taken and the rest of the afternoon was given over to organizing baseball. The day was a mys- tery to most of us until one of the Sisters of Providence informed one of the boys that the Brothers were celebrating their Pa- tronal feast. Our class notes would be incomplete with- out some reference to Paul App. We are wondering if the third time will prove a charm with him. Paul has had the mis- fortune of breaking his right arm three times this year. In order not to dissappoint any of our number who like to see their name in print we are presenting the roll call of the Fresh- men Class: App, Bailey, Beimer, Bentley, Clover, Corbett, Conners, Cain, DeWald, Dodane, Evard, Freeman, Ferguson, Frei- burger, Fitzgerald, Halter, Heit, Hohman, Houser, Irwin, Oscar Johnson, Edward Johnson, Lerch, Lassus, Klotz, Kelleher, Keller, Kelker, Krantz, Kennerk, Krouse, Manachio, McVey, Miller, McCollem, Mc- Hugh, O'Connell, Newman, Ki Pequignot, Robert Pequignot, Pierre, Potocki, Quinn, Romary, Sigl, Stark, Donald Smith, Roger Smith, Stack, Suelzer, Schultheis, Shea, Sorg, Siebenaler, Thompson, Wolf, Welch, and Zhendner. -Hernzctn Beimer, '26, Latin Teacher: CTO pupil after a halting reeitationjz Well, who told you?

You have before you in this column for the last time as Juniors, the best class that ever defended the Purple and Gold. Vive la Clase twenty-four. Since last we passed in review many things have happened. Al Bozo Gard- ener has been letting his beard grow in preparation for entering the House of David, but he says he changed his mind and thinks he'l1 shave. Yes, the Shieks still exist but they had to take a back seat when Brother Daniel took six of our classmen, Gardener, Kelker, Lilly, Loney, Miller and Roussey and formed a debating team, that sported its faces be- fore the several academies. When the varsity season was terminated there was much rivalry between the Jun- iors and Seniors as to who had the better representation on the varsity and accord- ingly to decide the argument, the Juniors of the varsity met the Seniors of the varsity in a game for the benefit of the Bengal Mission. What? Of course we won and sent the pennant of '24 up another notch above the other classes. Members of our exclusive five who thought it unpatriotic to attend school on Wasihngton's birthday, received extra schooling the following Saturday to impress upon their minds the importance of attend- ance. The crys in the Junior room at present are Hold your books and don't stand up, and Hold your breath, here comes Brother- Now that the Senior dance is history every Junior is racking his brain as to how he's going to raise the money to pay his share of the cost of the traditional Junior- Senior banquet. VVell, so long folks till we have climbed another notch on the ladder of education. --James Kcllfcr, '23. JUNIOR DEBATE On the afternoon of February 15, the stu- dent body assembled to hear the Junior classmen settle the question, Resolved: That the Character of Napoleon is detest- able and therefore the praise of genius should be denied him. ' Leslie Roussey, Charles Loney and Ches- ter Lilly represented the ahtirmative, while Alfred Gardner, Arthur Miller and James Kelker upheld the negative. The decision was given in favor of the affirmative. Mr. Robert Connelly, Dean of the Knights of Columbus Evening School, was chairman of the debate. The judges were Mr. John J. Disser, Grand Knight of the local Coun- eil of the Knights of Columbus, Mr. Thomas A. Hayes, attorney, and Dean Connelly. As judges they had not only the issue of the debate to decide, but were called upon to select the best speaker as the winner of the Junior Elocution Medal, donated by the Reverend Charles Thiele, pastor of St. Pet- er's parish. The judges were unanimous in both decisions. A Chester Lilly of the affirmative was awarded the elocution medal. Chester is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Lilly, of 1803 Bayer avenue. He is a member of the Cathedral parish and a graduate of the Cathedral school. The faculty and students of St. Augus- tine's Academy attended the debate. For the entertainment of the other Catholic Academies the debate was repeated at St. Catherine's and at the Sacred Heart. A. B.: Do you like Geometry. Tots: Yea, boy, l'm stuck on every problem.

Education Counts! - 0519- 31-if There's no rest for a Senior until after commencement. Our activities and worries are many. Perhaps our greatest worry was our Senior dance, but our Dance Com- mittee, composed of Bishop, Gordon, Mc- Kiernan, O'Neill and Passino, took most of the responsibility and made the event one of the big successes of the season. Our Senior play was the next in order. After two very successful performances in Library Hall, Thursday and Friday even- ings, April 26 and 27, we journeyed to Monroeville for a benefit performance on Sunday, April 29, with a return engage- ment there May 6. On Thursday evening, May 3, the players entertained the. Sisters and girls at St. Vincent's Orphanage. The players are Belot, Bishop, Bresnahan, Clif- ford, Cull, Donahue, Kallmyer, McKiernan, O'Neill, Rinehart and Schoenle. McCarthy, Smith, Suelzer and Centlivre joined the players in the Senior Glee Club. Several of the Seniors took part in Father Lothamer's festivities at Columbia City en Monday evening after Easter. All reported a good time. If reports are true, three of our number found special attraction up the line, and are frequent callers in Columbia City now. Mbst of the Seniors who remained in town Easter Monday took in the Fort Wayne-Notre Dame dance at the Anthony ball room. This event served as a sort of a get-acquainted meeting for those who in- tend entering Notre Dame next September. Erwin Studio was a popular place with the Seniors until each one got shot to the satisfaction of the best co-ed in town. True to the tradition of the class, we are to have our two picnics again this year. Fitzgcrald's farm on Ascension day and Boyle's farm Decoration day is our annual program. We plan to make these the great- est picnics of our career. With two essay contests over, our oratori- cal contest has many of us hard at work at the present writing. Our big worry, how- ever, is about the final examinations and graduation. IN MEMORIAM It is our sad duty to chronicle the death of Mrs. Anna Cull, mother of Eugene Cull, of the Senior Class. Mrs. Cull died at her home at 11:57 o'clock Tuesday night, May 1. She had been in ill health for the past four years and took sick suddenly after re- turning from shopping a few hours before she passed peacefully to her Maker. Surviving are the husband, James J. Cull, four children, Mrs. Eileen Wellin, Eu- gene, Helen and Clara Cull, all of Fort Wayne, five brothers, the Reverend Father Benno Pierson. O.R.C., of South Africa, Frank of Sidney, Neb., Edward of J ennett, Pa., Hubert of Hartford City, and Fred Pearson, of Fremont, and three sisters, Mrs. Frances Susser, of Canton, Ohio, Mrs. Flora Reclan, of Morgantown, W. Va., and Mrs. Eugene Carroll, of Fostoria, Ohio. The many beautiful floral offerings, the numerous spiritual bouquets, and the at- tendance at the funeral mass evidenced the high regard in which she was held by her acquaintances. We assure the bereaved family that she will receive a liberal share in the prayers of both faculty and students. May her soul rest in peace. We record with regret the death of Joseph G. Gordon, 18, who passed to his reward on February 22. Joseph was at one time a classmate of the members of the present Seniors class. He is the third class- mate fRussell Welch being the first and Eu- gene Luley being the secondl that has died since the organization of the present Senior group. May their souls and all the souls of the faithful departed rest inineace. -Robert Lztot, '23, Automobile Tops Re-covered Automobile Painting and Axles Straightened Springs Welded, Bumps taken out of Bodies THE CITY CARRIAGE WORKS Phone Main 155 Barr and Main Sts.

It pays to be a college graduate. Watch for the Commencement number of Tlu' Echo! PATRIOTIC NUMBER OF THE ECHO IS POPULAR C. C. H. S. Quarterly, One of the Season's Best, Has Many New Features. During the past week the George Washington birth- day number of The Echo, published by the Central Catholic High School, reached its widest circle of readers. The artistic cover, done in the national col- ors, bears the Sta1's and Stripes and a picture of the High School, taken since improvements were com- pleted. Joseph Perrey, staff artist, presents the frontispiece, a series of drawings depicting scenes in the life of Abraham Lincoln. The sketches are followed by an illustrated poem, The American Flag, written by Rev. Charles W. Pise, and Edwin 0'Neill's essay on Patriotism. ' James Belot, '23, gives evidence of poetic ability in his lyrical poem, dedicated to St, Patrick, the apos- tle of Erin. The Alumni song on the Purple and Gold is destined to long retain its popularity. Ross Pettit, '24, is the contributor of an account of That Basketball Game. Edmund Bresnahan, '23, has a graphic account of a Vacation spent at Rome City. Although the identity of the author of the ode To Shakespeare is hidden under the initials B. G., read- ers readily discerned that to Brother Gilbert, C. S. C.. supervisor of The Echo, were they indebted for this ve1'se. Gerard Libbing has a story on Yellow Stripes and Red Blood, while among the poetical contribu- tors George Cheviron, George Morris, James Belot, Arthur Volz, John Martin, John Parrot, Leslie Rous- sey and Donald Vordermark are named. The poem, Our Flag, by James Riley, is the pre- lude to the editorial section. - Absence and Tardiness is the caption of an edi- torial in which the Brothers of the Holy Cross take this occasion to thank those parents who have so heartily co-operated in building up such a splendid punctuality and attendance record for the C. C. H. S., a record which is four times better than it was two years ago, and which is the admiration of the Fort Wayne public school department of attendance and the talk of the workers of the juvenile court. In Sidelights, which supplies a digest of scholas- tic happenings, there is given an account of Rt. Rev. Msgr. Noll's annual visit. An excellent picture of the priest-editor of Our Sunday Visitor illustrates the article. There is also a. fine picture of Rev. Thomas M.

Fort Wayne's Most Urgent Need is the topic proposed, the contest 'oo close ,May 1. At a pre-holiday celebration at the Catholic High School, special addresses were given by Father Con- roy ,and John J. Disser, grand knight of Fort Wayne K. of C. Council. Glee club entertainments are duly chronicled and information given on the 5400.000 Catholic High School for Evansville, donated by Fran- cis Joseph Reitz. A touching tribute is paid the late Eugene Luley, of the Senior class, and his picture appears with the article. Robert Suelzer, '23, and Edmund Bresnahan, '23, have both written poems in his memory. In Memoriam records the death of the devoted mother of Richard Orff, of the Sophomore class. The Honor Roll and a picture of the new study hall are of special interest. Class notes are becoming better and better in every way and vie with the Periscope, which records the doings of Alumni members. A new department is the Mission Section, in which the figures are given on Catholic missionary work. The Athletic Department gives a complete review of the season's basketball games. Over the Party Line, Across the Back Fence and Co-Ed Rooters, humorous columns, conclude the list of features.-Journal-Gazette tFort Wayne, Ind.J, Feb. 26, 1923. C. C. H. S. Quarterly The quarterly publication of the Central Catholic High School, entitled The Echo, sent to the members of the student body, Alumni and friends of t.he school last week, contained many interesting articles, edito- rials and illustrations concerning the activities of the school. The issue was known as the George Wash- ington birthday number, and both illustrations and articles carried out the patriotic theme. -Ncius-Serif tincl tFort Wayne, Ind.J, Feb. 27. 1923. The Central Catholic high school quarterly publi- cation, The Echo, published on the occasion of Washington's birthday a patriotic issue which was unusually good. The Echo has enjoyed popular favor as an excellent student publication for some time, but it is doubtful if any issue exceeded in merit thc latest number. A variet.y of features were con- tained in the quarterly which clearly demonstrated the versatile genius of its youthful contributors. The faculty and students of Central Catholic high school are to be congratulated on their meritorious publica- tion. -Saturday Night..

ECHO THE ECHO-Patriotism is the keynote of the Feb- ruary issue of this welcome Exchange, and is the subject of a fine essay which easily deserves its prominent position in the book. We have not yet recovered from the short, and wholly unlooked for, ending of 'tThat Basketball Game. To have a hero fail at the crucial moment is disconcerting, eSD9Ci2lly, if we perceive no motive for the failure. However, Dick in Yellow Stripes and Red Blood soon restored our faith in heroes and also added to our contempt of the coward. Of the numerous poems The American Flag and To Shakespeare deserve special mention. The sorrow and sadness of the Irish exile leaving home are well portrayed in the poem to Saint Patrick. Appropriate cuts are scat- tered through the magazine enlivening the already bright interior. -St. Joscph's Prep. Chronice fPhilaclelphia, Pe1ma.J The Echo -Your class notes are Well written and in an interesting way.

YJ Permit us to congratulate you on the February issue of The Echo. It is the best magazine on our ex- change for the month. Its departments are well-ba1- anced and full of true High School spirit .... - Letter from the Editorial Staff, St. Edwa1'd's Echo, tAustin, Texasi. ECHO CONTRIBUTIONS Every year the graduating class attempts to make the final Echo excel the one of the previous year. This is possible only if the amount of contributions is large because this permits the editors to choose just the very best. The sooner the contributions are handed in the easier it will be for those in charge to get the Echo out on time. All original work, including themes Written for teachers, is acceptable. Humorous copy, consisting of short sketches, incidents or jokes is particularly needed. The poetically inclined are urged to write mock ballads, sonnets and any short poetry. Since the final Echo consists of departments of every kind, everyone is able to write a contribu- tion for it.

For three years he took a leading part in class dramatics, and has been a member of the Glee Club since its organization in 1921. He is secretary-treasurer of the Letter Club and a member of the Squad Club. Few school committees were ever complete without him. He has been the spokesman of the school on many occasions and, along with Editor-in-Chief Belot, represented the Seniors at the Rotary Club luncheon a short while ago. He says the best event of the four years he spent at C. C. H. S. was when he helped defeat the Fort Wayne High School football team last fall. Pat will en- ter the Liberal Arts course at Notre Dame. JAMES HENRY BELOT, Secretary Datum James Henry Belot, secretary of the Senior class, is also Editor-in-Chief of The Echo. Ever since the age of seven he has been leaning over desks in the schools which stand on the Cathedral square. His favorite pastimes are swimming, tennis, reading and editing. Possessed of a keen sense of humor, he is a remarkable entertainer. When it comes to truthfulness, Jim could make Georgie Washington blush With envy. A member of the Glee Club and of the Dramatic Club, he has been in practically every entertainment and play given during the past two years. He says the best event of his school life was the second Senior performance at Monroeville. AUSTIN JEROME CENTLIVRE, Treasurer usoupu Austin Jerome Joseph Centlivre,, otlirwlrise known as Soup, Otto, Oscor, ' u y, Austie, Cent, Cupie, Fairy, Oscor Von, Austick, or any one of a thousand other nicknames, he has been called since he first saw the light of day on January 2, 1905, is what can be justly called an all-around good fellow. He has been class treasurer for the past two years and has been on the Varsity basketball team for the same length of time. For three years he was on the Varsity football team. A charter member of the Glee Club he is always very popular with the fair ones, although he emphatically de- clares that his best friend is his Cadillac. He will enter Notre Dame next year. -R Ju filif' A I L3 Jn, FRANKLIN LORAIN BISHOP !CBiSh72 Bishop entered our school five years ago, but after two years and a half of careful study he decided that he wanted to see the states. He vis- ited sixteen and then returned to Fort Wayne, ready for more book learning. He intends to en- ter the University of California before he makes the rounds of the other thirty-two states in the Union. Bishop took part in all the plays and en- tertainments during the past two years and has rendered valuable service in all the high schoul's musical activities. His idea of a good time is Moonlight with a motor boat, his hobby is swimming, his favorite expression is She's a knockout, and his favorite verse is: Lives of great men all remind us . . . ROBERT PATRICK BOYLE Kfpatif Robert is one of the best students of the Class of 1923. Two years ago he tool: the Gold Medal for the highest general average in the class and could easily have repeated the same stunt last year had not the Hesse Cassel interurban changed its schedule and frustrated his plans. An inno- cent farmer lad, Robert revels in hunting, trap- ping, fishing and swimming. During his school days his books and lessons were his greatest con- cern, although he found time to serve The Echo in the capacity of Exchange Editor. Robert in- tends to be a farmer and the Class of 1923, which for the past four years has held a Decoration Day picnic at his splendid farm home at Hesse Cassel, agree that he is a wise boy. EDMOND JOHN BRESNIAHAN Heinie Edmond John Bresnahan-in other words- Heinie, sheik of the Senior Class, hails from the Cathedral school. He made the Varsity in both football and basketball, was a member of the Glee Club, Letter Club, Squad Club, The Ramblers, Dramatic Club, and was president of the Bozos. In his Senior year he earned his monogram and won the Gold Medal in the Ora- torical Contest. His hobby is women and his favorite sport is swimming. September will find him studying foreign commerce at the University of Notre Dame in preparation for a future career in South America. The personification of nerve, Heinie has been into everything-except the waste paper basket admirers and . . . Enough said. He'll tell the world. JOSEPH EDWARD CLIFFORD Captain Captain Clifford has always been active in athletics and dramatics during his attendance here. He was captain of the football team last year and that accounts for his nickname. His favorite occupation is kidding and we'll say that he has certainly the knack. If humor and good nature ever gets one anywhere then we feel that Joe will certainly be able to go where he wants with his unfailing line. His ambition is to be .a coal man so as to live up to family tradi- tions. He intends to go to college. 'Joe wants to go to Notre Dame while his brother wants him to go to Michigan University, so poor little Joe is on the fence just now. His favorite expres- sion is: No, Brother, it wasn't me. EUGENE MICHAEL CULL Lovesick Eugene Michael Joseph James Cull, other- wise known as Lovesick, our energetic adver- tising manager of The Echo, was born at 10 o'clock Sunday night, March 7, 1905. He is a ready speaker and a persuasive debator. He is going to enter the University of Michigan and pursue the study of law. His one ambition is to be a successful lawyer. Gene's favorite sport is track, his favorite magazine is the American, his favorite piece of poetry is Trees, While Cull has never taken an active part in sport, he has always been a great booster of all athletic contents. He has taken part in several plays and programs as well as competed in all literary contests. His efforts were rewarded by a consid- erable prize in the essay contest on advertising. AURILIUS FRANCIS FINK Relic Aurilius Francis Joseph Fink gives the place and date of birth as Fort Wayne, Indiana, Aug. 20, 1905. He is a member of St. Patrick's parish and a product of the Hanna and St. Patrick's schools. Although Relu is small and light, he.made the football squad last fall and got a berth ln the Letter Club. His favorite sports are football, basketball, swimming and boxing. He professes to be undecided whether to go to college or to go to workg but we feel confident that his uncle, Monsignor Noll, the editor of Om' Sunday' Vzs- tior, will help Aurilius decide in favor of a higher Catholic education at Notre Dame. 'I :' 1-,,,--: C RE KV--1 J GEORGE GERALD FITZGERALD George has the distinction of being the only Senior from St. Vincent de Paul's parish, in other words he is the only close neighbor of the Sacred Heart Academy bunch. George has a splendid farm home on the Leo road about six miles from the city. The Fitzgerald farm has been the center of a pleasure place on Ascension Thursday for the past four years. George has another distinction, that of being the only Senior to be paid by a newspaper for writing verse. He is a great lover of verse and poetry, and yet he gets time to indulge in all kinds of athletics. A splendid specimen of young manhood, he is a credit to his parents, his school and his faith. MAURICE JOHN FOX Skinny Skinny was the winner of the Gold Medal for the highest average in the Freshman year. Even now he is quite a shark at mathematicsg trigonometry is but child's play for him. His plans for the immediate future are to study civil engineering so as to be able to realize his am- bitions to be rich and hold a high position in life, without hindering his chances for greater glory in Heaven. Skinny has been lonesome since his best friend and classmate, Robert Passino, left for California on May 27. Another case where inseparables must separate. Good luck to both. GEORGE WILLIAM GORDON Lcmky When George moved up to Fort Wayne from Peoria, Ill., in 1919, he started to grow tall. He has been at it ever since. At present he is only about six inches taller than the average tall man. .His hobby was radio but now it's girls. He made a great hit at the Sacred Heart Academy on Ascension Thursday and we made our hits the next day for one of the fair ones informed us that on the following day George would be nineteen years old. Next September will ind our lanky boy at Notre Dame, Where he expects to study journalism. His favorite expression is: Don't pop off. WWE .fzr-'-'-:C WALTON CORNELIUS HEDEKIN Whitey A Walton Cornelius Hedekin was born in Fort Wayne on Aug. 4, 1905. The first words he learned to say were: I'll bring it tomorrow. He has been repeating them ever since. It can be seen that Whitey's hobby is athletics, for he has connections with various organizations out- side of school. He says the best event in his school life was during his Sophomore year when his name was found carved on several arm chairs, and Brother Owen took the case out of Brother Gilbert's hands. Walton will continue school, if not at Annapolis, he is going to join his brother at the University of Detroit. JOHN JOSEPH HUGUENARD Johnny Johnny's hobby is swimming in summer and reading in winter. His great ambition is to be a millionaire so as to have the where-with-all to carry out some of his scientific theories he has been embibing during his five years at C. C. Hl. S. No, Johnny never ilunked, he finished his eighth grade at C. C., with the last class of grade boys taught by the Brothers. A great plugger in school, he was usually the first Senior to arrive in the morning and the last to leave at night-a college course will be child's play with him. An extraordinary reader, thinker and experimenter, the world of science appeals to him and We pre- dict the greater things for our young Edison. Let's go. JOSEPH EDWARD KALLMYER Jake Jake hails from New Haven, so perhaps this helps account for his nickname. Jake is a steady worker, his favorite occupation is reading, no doubt to prepare himself for those speeches he will make when he is mayor of New Haven. He has been a member of the orchestra for the last two years and took part in several dramatic ac- tivities. Though most sports hold no charms for him, Jake is a wonder at tennis. He intends to continue his studies as apprentice in the General Electric shops here in Fort Wayne. Due to his stick-to-it spirit we are sure he will come out on top. Good luck to the boy who came so far to get a Catholic high school education. f If .L,..f MICHAEL HENRY KINDER Valedictorian iKM1:keJ7 Mike started his career here as a member of the orchestra and a shark at algebra. He was with the musicians the first two years but he be- came so popular that he had to quit to tend to his other activities. Since then he has been on the football squad as a dashing end. He has played on nearly all the class teams in every line of sport. Mike has always managed to get his studies but he prefers successive sprints to a steady pace. Mathematics is his favorite study and since he can't have algebra all the time, well he just had to show us how simple trigonomerty is. BERNARD AUSTIN KINSTLE Bun Bernard was born in Fort Wayne, March 11, 1904, and entered old C. C. six years ago as a seventh grade product of the Cathedral School. He was a member of the class of 1922 until Jan- uary of last year, when he decided to go to work. September, however, found him back in school as a member of the class of 1923. Football is his favorite sporty sleeping his hobbyg bookkeeping his favorite study, and the day after the final exams, his long-looked-for day. Bun says his days of ease are over and that he intends to work hard while at college. Pet expression is Bush been down tonight? NOR BERT STEPHAN KOEHL Ifpinkil Norbert Koehl, better known as Pink, Bub, Simp or Dutch, is one of C. C.'s best athletes. When he finished his grade schoolwork at St Peter's, he decided he wanted a course that would prepare him for college work in commerce and he knew there was no better place to get such a course than at the Central Catholic High School. Pink's hobby is eating sauer-krautg his favorite sports are football and basketball, his favorite work is at the Bass foundry, his favor- ite pastime is chewing gum and his favorite ex- pression is: Give me a match. Pink is an inveterate reader of such weird books as Mother Goose's Fairy Tales and Little Red Riding Hood. Pink was seen to best advantage in the character of Herman Schmaltz in the Million- aire J anitorf' iff' V ,-E-L-:iii ROBERT CHARLES LITOT lfB0bJJ Robert Litot has been with us four years and during that time he has won a place for himself Dy knowing his own special ability and working along lines best suited to it. He has never taken much interest in athletics except from the side lines but you can bet he is a booster when it comes to work he can do. He has long been a standby on The Echo staff, especially in the bus- iness department, where he displayed his sales- manship by the number of subscriptions and ads that he secured. His favorite expression is Got your Latin? and his hobby is masticating chickle. We are sure he will make good at his groposed year of business and four years at Notre ame. THOMAS ANTHONY MCKIERNAN rrwindyry Touchdown Mack or plain Windy blew in from St. Patrick's four years ago. While at C. C. he has always been a booster in all school activi- ties. Besides winning the Father Conroy Elocu- tionMedal in 1922, he copped a five dollar gold piece for oratory in his Senior year. For four years he was the oiiicial cheer leader when not actually participating in the game himself. Dur- ing the past two years he has been the business manager of The Echo and publicity manager of all athletics. His activity also includes two years on the Varsity football team, three years in the Glee Club, one year of service as class treasurer, committee man for the Senior Banquet and Dance, vice-president of the Letter and Squad Club, member of the Dramatic Club, etc., etc. Mack wants to be a statesman, so he is going to tackle Law at Notre Dame next September. EDWIN TIMOTHY MCCARTHY Gris Griz fell in line with us in the Sophomore year. He is a popular member of St. Patrick's parish and thinks he is the whole cheese around the Lyceum. A member of the Glee Club, he hits the high spots at times. His dramatic ability was best shown when he appeared in the production of The Editor-in-Chief. He is a basketball player of ability, but since he has been captain of the Lyceum Athletic Association team, he has been unable to line up with the Varsity. Griz says the best event of his school life was when he was caught skipping school in his Junior year. In his Senior year, he rendered valuable assistance to the attendance department by contributing the services of his Haynes in tracing the absent ones. I 'I C IV I-F J J ill- JOHN RAYMOND MURPHY Salutatorian flMuTf7? John James Raymond Murphy has a host of nicknames but is generally known to the boys as plain Murf, was born at Maples, Indiana, July 23, 1906. During his Freshman year he made a pilgrimage from Monroeville to Fort Wayne each day, but in the fall of 1920 he decided to move to the city and get everything possible out of school life. A hard worker and a great booster he has won the esteem and admiration of his teachers and fellow students. A great baseball fan he tried hard to get organized baseball in the school, and one of his greatest disappointments was when his plans failed to materialize. Murf in- tends to go to college and afterwards to become a big, fat, jolly business man. EDWIN JAMES O'NElLL Phyllis Edwin James Jerome O'Ne1Il, the general manager of The Echo and the all-around handy man of the school, first saw the iight of day on Sept. 29, 1904. He is one of the hardest workers in the class and one who made a name for him- self by Winning the first prize of twenty dollars in a recent city and county wide essay contest open to all pupils in the public, parochial and pri- vate schools of Fort Wayne and Allen County. Besides being an energetic Echo worker, Ed has been most active in promoting every form of en- tertainment in the school, and of booking outside engagements both for the Glee Club and the Dra- matic Club. A daily communicant and a model youth, his example is a lesson to his fellow stu- dents and a gratification to his teachers. JOSEPH IRVIN PERREY GIJoe!! Joe has been Art Editor of The Echo for the past two years and his work has elicited very fa- vorable comment from several commercial artists. His portrayal of Lincoln, the model of American students, is typical of his more serious work. Joe is a great basketball fan and has played on class teams for the past four years. His favorite rec- reation is cartooning, while his favorite study is in the mathematical line. Joe is a great old Boy Scout and serves as assistant scoutmaster to Troop No. 9 of the Cathedral. Joe was sick so long that we thought he would not be able to finish with the rest of us, but he returned shortly after Passino left for California, and that is how he happens to occupy this panel. Q A liile,-'-:JR ROBERT WILLIAM RINEHART lfRudyJJ Robert Rinehart has been prominent in school activities since he came. He has played on the football team one and a half years, on basket- ball team two years and has been prominent in dramatic activities. Due to an injured knee he was unable to play football last season, so he spent his time as student manager. In this ca- pacity he did excellent work, learned to like what he saw of newspaper, work and conceived the am- bition of becoming a journalist. His favorite class is English, perhaps that accounts for his interest in journalism. However, he intends to continue studying though he is undecided as to where. WILLIAM LEO RYAN lIJeH!! William Leo Dolan Ryan, otherwise known as Bill, Jeff, and of late, Mabel, was born in New York City on March 16, 1906. Four years later he found himself living at LaGro, Indiana. In September, 1920, he moved to Fort Wayne and joined our class. His ambition is to take up an electrical engineering course at Purdue, and later to make his home in New York City, the place of his birth. Jeff is a great basketball fan and let- ter writer. He even tried to hand in letters to Mabel instead of Latin duties. Since the Chap- lain of the Bozo's Club was appointed pastor of Columbia City, Jeff spends a great deal of time up the line. Ryan is a natural humorist and his favorite expression is Dry up. ADOLPH JOSEPH SCHIFFLI A Mem Without ct N iclmamev Adolph was born April 6, 1905, on a farm near Summit, Indiana. He joined us in the Sophomore year. His Freshman year he spent with his brother at St. Ignatius' College, Cleveland, Ohio. A true country gentleman, his hobby is fishing, although he admits he likes football in season. His favorite class is Spanish and his favorite work is in a bakery shop Where, for the past year, he has worked nights in order that he might be able to finish his high school course. Adolph declares that three hours out of twenty- four is enough for anybody to spend in sleep. We are hardly ready to agree with him on this point. Adolph's favorite expression is Gosh. :run .fl ' ALBERT LOUIS SCHOENLE HA-be!! Abe, the Gold Medal collector of our class, was born February 12, 1904, at 1703 Lumbard street, Fort Wayne, Indiana, and is the only rep- resentative we have from St., Andrew's parish. A very reticent character, he refuses to make known his plans for the future, but should he continue his studies he will make a valuable pitcher for some college nine. An energetic student, his fa- vorite class is Latin for the work in which he holds a gold medal. He was the star student in the Junior year and is attempting to duplicate the medal stunt again this year. A clever actor, he has taken part in the class plays, and yet he shocked his companions by saying that he had not attended a movie for nearly two years. MAURICE JOSEPH SMITH Quincey,' Maurice hails from Arcola, Indiana, and makes the trip back and forth each day by auto. The ride is a pleasant one for he is not unac- companied, so he says. Since Maley quit school and joined the Benedicts, Smith is our only rep- resentative of Arcola. A pleasant disposition and a remarkable voice he is one of the very popular members of the C. C. Ht S. Glee Club. In order to acquaint his home town folks with the work of the members of the Senior class, Maurice ar- ranged for a public entertainment by the Glee Club at Arcola. Maurice is going to continue his studies next year, and his friends are going to be agreeably surprised when they find out where. More power to the wonder of Arcola.

LAFONTAINE 1 BROTHER DANIEL, C- S- C Superintendent Y , Prlncxpal lo THE ECHO FRESHMEN Q Echo, December, 1919. J Our class is the largest in the school, We beat the Juniors by six. We have represen- tatives from Rochester, N. Y., East St. St. Louis, Ill., Monroeville, Ind., Arcola, Ind., and New Haven, Ind., and Hesse Cassel. One day during English class we elected Pat Donahue for our president. Someone said that, like De Valera, he will have to use quotation marks for his title. We are, however, by no means inactive. We were the first to start football and basketball, and won our first victory on the gridiron by whipping the Sophomores. We constitute a kind of anthropological society. fNever mind where we get all this learningj Deserving of honorable mention is Goldsmith, the oldest boy in the school, born as he was one hundred and ninety-one years ago. Our friend Fox is the slyest boy in the class. Though we live in har- mony, nevertheless we sometimes have trou- ble with Boyle, and it is only when Suelzer comes to the rescue that peace is again re- stored. Centlivre carries a hundred times more weight in our counsels than any of us and the wonder is that he was not elect- ed class president. Koehl, though a near relative of the cabbage family, is one of the brightest boys in our room. Though Fisher likes to bask by the stream of life, and Cull the flowers growing on the bank, Miller sees to it that most of the time we are kept grinding out the grains of knowledge in the mill of the classroom, or else Smith keeps us hammering away at our books. The Freshmen are getting chestier every day. Well, maybe it's bestg they won't get hurt so much when they fall. FRESHMEN iEcho, February, 1920.3 We've been given a whole column in which to give an account of our class doings but how we are going to fill it is the ques- tion. Our activities in athletics are told elsewhere in The Echo. We might mention here, however, that we have two basketball teams and play two or three games a week. So far we haven't lost a game with a team of our own weight. We are proud of the fact that we are the best boosters of the Varsity team in school. Anyway, more of us have season tickets than any other class in school. And between halves of the big games we keep the crowd in good spirits by running relay races. We also have a member of our class on the School Booster Club. We elected Pat Don- ahue, our president, to the position so we are sure that in all school activities we won't be dragging behind. The faculty spoiled a perfect Christmas day by sending the reports out December 24th. In spite of the cold reception Cold stu- dents know what we meanj we received on the Monday after New Year's, Brother Daniel wished us all a Happy New Year. They say that pride cometh before a fall. Well, if the pride of the Freshman class team was in proportion to their fall when they met the Juniors they were sure some chesty bunch. One day last week a lady observed the janitor sprinkling sawdust upon the ice in front of the school to prevent pedestrians from falling. That, declared the good lady, is real benevolancef' No it isn't, growled a passing Fresh- man, it's sawdust. FRESHMEN fEcho, May, 1920.3 We have a good account to give of our- selves this time. On March 8 we held an athletic meet for the benefit of the Bengal Mission of India. Most of the schools of the city made a good showing, but the pupils from St. Patrick's showed up the best and as a result the Irish took home the prize. We were not slow, for our second team won from the Sophomores' Seconds in basketball and our first team won from the Lyceum Independents. The tug-of-war, races, box- ing, and basketball games among the grades of the Catholic schools wound up the meet and brought our door receipts, with all our expenses paid, to the sum of 353575. We thank the good Sisters very much for their kind help, and we hope that the good work will bring upon all those who co-operated 1n its success the reward in this world and in the next. .During Holy Week we were first again in mission work, for we collected five dollars in pennies which we sent to India to buy a Bengal baby which is to be named Patrick Paul after our bouncing Paul Royhans. We were first in basketball, but that's oldg we were also first in baseball and if the weather man would only have some feel- ing for us now all would be well. Speaking of queer things, we possess at C. C. H. S. a clock that succeeds in traveling only one minute space in two minutes' time. We suggest that Brother Daniel invent a device which will sharpen pencils only when they are broken. It will save time, shoe leather, and many pencils. AT RECESS Not a single word was spoken, The ball had gone astray, And all I did was close my eyes,+ The window stopped its way. -E. Bresmzhan, '23. THE ECHO 17 43-, S 6 -Yi wif.

Twenty-nine of us returned in September, but we got several new additions, making our total thirty-five. As for the new members, Mutt Rhine- hart blew into C. C. H. S. with the Septem- ber storm and bumped his head on the elec- tric lights the first thing. Jeff Ryan hails from LaGro and is the midget of the class. Eugene Luley came from St. Mary's to yell for Cox but we soon converted him. Schiffli, commonly known as Goggles, comes to us from Cleveland and gives silent speeches for Debs. McCarthy and Clifford, seeing the pepperino of the class of '23, decided to stall a year to be with us. A few days after school started we held class elections. There was not much cam- paigning, so at the primaries every member voted for himself for president. As a re- sult, when a count was taken thirty-five had tied for the office. The next best thing to do was to hold a convention, the outcome of which was that we had three candidates for each office. Buckshot Donahue, president of last year's class, was re-elected by a Harding majority. Cy Fitzgerald was elected secretary, and Windy McKiernan is our Croesus. Besides our basketball activities which will be recorded later, we organized a foot- ball team and after several hard try-outs we played the pick of the Freshmen class. 'As they had Graf and Bushman-both semi-professionals-we did not want to dis- courage the freshies and still we did not want to be walloped ourselves, we letthe game go at a tie score of 13 to 13 in favor of both. Our class has five representatives on the school football team. Clifford the full-back, Centlivre the half-back, Donahue the quarter-back, with Suelzer and' Rhine- hart as subs on the line, show the upeppisi- mo of the sophs in athletics. Last April Donahue, McKiernan, and Perry organized a weekly paper called The Bull. Professor Wilkinson, our social lion, was later taken in on the staff as society reporter, and very few items of interest es- cape his eye and pad. Besides the class news, The Bull has a science section, a his- tory column, a weekly poem, a story or two, and several jokes. Cartoons are added when space permits. We started something when we got our monograms. Six other classes on the Ca- thedral square followed suit. We needed luck and something with a kick in it. We got both in the form of a purple horse shoe with C. C. H. S., '23, in gold on a back- ground of green. Purple and Gold are the school colors, and the antithetical green is our class color. As for pep, we are in the superlative de- gree of its comparison. Pep, pepperino, pep- pisimo. We are the first in class spirit, Echo subscriptions, Echo ads, football, bas- ketball, monograms, and school boosters. We contribute the school cheer leader, and have representatives in the orchestra and glee club. Anything in our hands is sure to succeed. We've got the kick and we've got the pep as is shown by the bill boards we are sporting. Say, O'Neill, are the Brothers hard on a fellow? Why, yes, some are pretty hard on us, and some are pretty heavy on us, too. THE PLEDGE OF '23 A score plus ten and five are we, To leave the school in twenty-three VVith every member bo a man A-doing all the work he can. We're proud of this old school of ours lrVe love its dear old battered towers. We know it doesn't look like much, But we care not for looks, as such. We're here to drink-as morning dew- . Our learning with religion, too. For faith We'd fight, for faith We'd di We'd do the same for Catholic High. The Sophomores are such big fellows that people sometimes mistake them for Seniors. They have, however, labeled themselves with '23 monograms to avoid confusion. I'll bet that the fellow who designed the Sophomore monograms got a headache over the idea. It looks as if there IS at least one genius in the school. SOPHOMORES Q Echo, February, 1921. J Sophomore notes don't mean music, but there are charms about us all the same. We are the only class in school that has suf- fered no defections so far. When Brother William made it known that he would like to install showers, Mc- Kiernan and Donahue hustled about and found a good number of loyal friends who gladly helped defray part of the expenses. Speaking of getting around, Eugene Cull has worn out a couple pair of shoes doing Echo work, while the whole class tried to do its level best to sell tickets for the Bengal Mission game. Although our basketball activities are re- corded elsewhere, we must remark here that fastest class aggrega- not in the whole state. are especially proud of over the local Senior 92 we have one of the tions in the city-if Of our victories, we our putting it all classg the Indianapolis C. H. S. Juniorsg the F. W. H. S. Seconds and the C. C. Noisy Freshmen. Rinehart represents our class on the Varsity team, and if dope works out, all we'll have to do is join Captain Koehl and change our name to that of Varsity next year. We have become so popular that the K. of C. manager came and asked us to usher at their Concordia games. We were willing and glad to go. Stand, please, You're 20 THE ECHO in the wrong seat, Let me down, Where is your stub? have become common expres- sions with us g but if we'd attempt to tell what some of the fans call us it would never pass the censor. Our Millionaire Janitor, the Sophomore play, was a howling success. 'Tis hard to tell who should get the cauliflower, as all performed remarkably well, but Herman Schmaltz and Prof. Flogg were especially goof. We are glad to state that our class week- ly, The Bull, is growing. We have put out a couple of double issues lately. If Per- rey, the printer, can only keep up with the work the enlargement will be permanent. NVe are sorry our space has been limited. We'd like to tell you about our Christmas sweaters. We have all the colors from Jos- eph's scriptural garment to a convict's Sing Sing colors. We've had to cut out all our vacation stuff because the Echo manage- ment said we had too much space in the last issue. That was because we had so much to write about, and moreover, If we toot not our own horn our horn remaineth untootedf' The latest addition to the Party Line is in the Brother's House. Brother Owen's morn- ing calls have a marvelous efect on ski- vers. No, that's not a convict. That's McKier- nan with his new sweater. O'Neill ate a package of raisins before the whole class the other day. Guess he must be a raisin jack. Windy McKiernan didn't last long as a coach at the Lyceum. The girls soon ditched him. Robert Boyle, of Hesse Cassel, is a great friend of Caesar. He takes him home with him every night. Rinehart doesn't trust the banks of Arco- la anymore. He almost cashed in his checks on one of the railroad banks there during the holidays. Seems that everyone wanted to tell his teachers how he spent Christmas, but when it came to New Year's everyone was mum. How about it, Austin? CLASS OF '23 PRESENT THE MILLIONAIRE JANITOR It is undubitable that we owe a mon- ument, if not of bronze or onxy, then at least of gratitude and praise to President Patrick Donahue, who, with his cordon of efficient co-laborers of the Sophomore class, is responsible for the first under-graduate play. The Millionaire Janitor, a comedy in two acts, by Seymour S. Tibbals, is espe- cially adapted to high school pupils. By a careful selection of characters, the play proved a great success with the audience. We haven't space to mention anything save the grace and dignity of Pat Donahue, and the Dutch highnessn of Norbert Koehl. Of course there was Edmund Bresnahan with bells on in the noise and punching scene, and Raymond Murphy showed him- self a perfect doll. All in all it was a mem- orable success, even if Cull and Litot were unavoidably restrained from telling the Joke about Koehl's make-up.

We certainly have a peach of a start and we've never failed in anything we have undertaken. We suppose you noticed that there were but five members in the picture of our bas- ketball team. We know it is bad form to offer an excuse for the absence of McCar- thy and Koehlg but kindly remember that it is easier to patch up matters with the long and the short of the 'team than it would be to pay for a broken camera. Just turn back and lamp Little Joe Cliford once again. It is a cinch you'd know him if you ever met him, for he's the exception that proves the rule that Nobody loves a fat man. We didn't mean to give Clifford so much space, for we wanted to tell you about how our own George Gordon's physiognomy, which occupied about twenty-four square inches of space in the local Sunday paper recently. The following was said about George: One of t-he youngest wireless operators in the city is George Gordon, of 927 Wildwood avenue. Gordon is only sixteen years old. and has had a wireless re- ceiving set since June of last year. His instrument consists of a home-made regenerative cabinet. with a single audion detector. He has heard stations in nearly all the districts of the country. The Bull, our class weekly, hasn't been very regular of late. Increased demands on Perrey's time, Donahue and McKiernan's fight, Clifford and McCarthy's love, Rine- hart's broken nose, the trip to New Haven, O'Neill's bi-annual hair cut, McEvoy's raise at the Hope-Methodist, the spring vacation, Smith's election, class prophecies, and Bro. Gilbert's sojourn at St. Joseph's Hospital, all worked havoc with our esteemed weekly. We are still claiming distinctions. Our latest boast is that we are the only class in school that has been able to claim the atten- tion of the entire teaching staff. We suc- ceeded in roping in Brother Owen to teach history during the absence of our regular teacher. Brother Owen told us many nice things about the Napoleonic period.

SOPHOMORE GAMES Our plucky five has won seventeen games so far and have lost but five. We opened the season on December lst, with a defeat at the hands of the St. John's Lutheran So- ciety, by a score of 24 to 22. We redeemed ourselves a few nights later by a score of 26 to 16. We then met the local Freshmen and walloped them. While we were in a winning streak, we took on the Cagers and won by a score of 40 to 4. On December 9th we duplicated the same on the Cavaliers by a score of 42 to 8. After winning four straight games, we met the St. J ohn's team to play the rubber of our series with them and lost by a score of 18 to 16. Our next great victory was over the South Side Cagers when we piled up 40 points to their 6. On January 7th, we had what we con- sider tbe best game of the season so far. The strong E. A. C.'s played us a hard game, but as the playing progressed, our op- ponents lost ground and We won by a double score of 24 to 12. Ten days later the same team returned and handed us a defeat by a score of 20 to 16. Our first out-of-town game was with the Cathedral High Juniors of Indianapolis. It was a clean, sportsmanlike game, in which we proved ourselves the victors by a score of 13 to 11. Line-up: Joe Clifford, Pat Donahue, guards: Ed- win O'Neill, center: Austin Centlivre.

We are confident that by continued application both in school and at home, there will be none of the class of '23 to be found lacking when the June examinations are over. Boyle was absent for a few days some time ago, and some of the Sophomores found it pretty hard to get their Latin du- ties. Rinehart says he spends nine hours every night on Caesar. We knew he was a long sleeper but we did not expect him to admit it A wise Soph contributed this bit of wis- dom: The Greeks used to play an instru- ment called the lyre. It's in use yet, but it's a mouth organ. HEARD OVER THE FENCE Austin is a dandy fellow, isn't he? Yes, indeed, he's got a Cadillac. Clifford. Pm not going to write any more jokes for The Echo. The teacher sits on them all. Donahue: It's evident your jokes have very few points. JUNIORS 1 Echo, December, 1921.5 What does the angry mob say? Yea! Hurrah for the powers behind the throne! Nine rahs for the Bishop, the Superintend- ent, and the Faculty! That's the way we acted on the morning of September 6th. After the cheering, we formed a snake dance, but that was suddenly broken up by a prominent member of the faculty. To make a long story short, we all came back except John Schwantz. Last year one of the teachers told Johnny that he knew too much, and being a very credulous little gen- tleman, he got a good job during vacation and started to apply his superabundant knowledge. We are sorry to lose John as he was a splendid student and a little gen- tleman always. We have the same number of Juniors as we had Sophomores last year, for Oran Hickman, of Wolcottville, came to take our smart boy's place. A few days later when a conditioned Junior could not get the idea of working off conditions and secured his credits for the public high school, James Belot, who had been working for two years, decided he wanted the only available desk in the Junior room and re- turned to school. James is a thorough stu- dent and we are glad to welcome him to our midst. We managed to get the old Senior room, which is considered the most convenient and best equipped room in the school. We did not get it on our good looks or our splendid scholarship, but, as we were emphatically informed, because no other room would hold us. When the call was sounded for football players, we led the school by placing seven regulars and three subs on the team. Our class promises to show up wonderfully in athletics, for after our splendid showing in football we are responding generously to basketball. It looks as though the famous Sophomore team of last year will go a long ways in the making of the Varsity string. - In our class this year We have repre- sentatives from Wolcottville, Hesse Cassel, New Haven, Monroeville, Summit City, La- Gro, and Arcola, who by association with us now act like real Fort Wayners. A When it comes to study and duties, no matter whether ethics, solid geometry, al- gebra, English, Spanish, Latin, chemistry or religion makes the demands, it is the spirit of the class that We give the best that is in us. Our class is spending itself to make The Echo a success. We worked hard on the ad- vertising and made a pretty good showing with subscriptions as well. We gave up the publication of our three-year-old Bull so as to be able to concentrate our work on The Echo. Just lamp the articles labeled '23 and be convinced that our efforts were not in vain. Our class work is as clock work and whenever we see a student unable to sup- ply himself With the required equipment, in- stead of sending him to the Salvation Army for help, we just pass the hat and buy what- ever is needed. On one occasion the receipts far exceeded the requirements and we had a balance left in the treasury to draw on. At the class elections we re-elected Pat Donahue president for the third term. Thomas McKiernan is our secretary, and Mr. Joseph Clifford is the custodian of our funds. The office of treasurer was the hard- est to fill. Arcola Smith and Tiny Clif- ford tied for the job and we had to hold a special election. Due to the workings of the Windy machine, Tiny was elected. At the pep meeting for The Echo, four of the eight volunteer speakers were mem- bers of the class of '23. In fact we were so imbued with the Echo spirit that when the new faculty sponsor called for workers the Juniors offered to do the work alone if nec- essary. Thanks to the generous response of the other students it was not necessary for us to do it, and hence we only helped to produce this issue. -Eugene Cull, '23. The Junior bunch are so used to staying in after school that they don't mind it any more. Ask Bun Kinstle if there is any advan- tage in having an older brother in the same class with him. 'C 24 THE ECHO Donahue's favorite music is The Wabash Blues. On the way back from Indianapolis our colorswere Black and Blue. The Juniors got more backingg it's new chairs this time. Nothing is impossible. Look who sang Mother Machreef' Ask Clifford how to solve the transpor- tation problem. He knows. Litot says it is easier to get subscriptions than Latin. We're with you, Bob. What has become of the monograms of other years? If Black 4286 were on a party line we might be able to pull a skive once in a while. JUNIORS K Echo, February, 1922. J What did you get in Chemistry? Are we downhearted? Such were the expres- sions which greeted us as we passed the threshold of the Junior room to start the work of the second half of the year's work. As a result of the opportune arrival of the report cards many of us made good reso- lutions and seem to be determined to keep them. We predicted that our class teamof' last year would go a long way in the making of the Varsity basketball string for this year, and so it happened. Pinkie Koehl, Soup Centlivre, Tiny Cliford and Bob Rine- hart made the Varsity. McCarthy and Smith seem to take a great interest in the Lyceum. McCarthy is treas- urer and Smith, of Arcola fame, helps Griz spend the money. Kallmyer, of New Haven, and Perrey, our art editor, furnished the red headlights for the Kinder-Koehl fights. Passino still runs Aurentz's delivery Ford and brings Maurice Fox to school quite frequently. When the Letter Club was formed our class furnished the vice-president and the secretary-treasurer. McKiernan and Don- ahue hold the respective positions. l Fitzgerald and Boyle are planning' a country club to accommodate Cull, 0'Ne1ll, Luley, Suelzer and a few more who have a hobby for visiting the country. Following an extended vacation in Flor- ida, Franklin Bishop is himself again and wc gladly welcome him back. Ryan and Murphy are getting up a team to beat the Tiny Babes in basketball. Hedekin is a sub on Ryan's team. Litot found school hours rather long so he got himself a watch to help him pass the time away. Every three minutes he DUNS out the watch and counts the seconds until the end of the session. , Some one has suggested a lanky guys club for our class. Surely we have sufficient material. Just look at Gordon, Rinehart and Belot. ' VVhcn it comes to Latin. Albert Schoenle has it all over Cicero. Al can read Latin and then translate it into English without any difficulty, whe1'eas Cicero didn't even know English. Huguenard, our chemist, tried to get a free hour by filling the room with the fumes of artificial ancient eggs. It failed. The teacher closed the. windows and doors and went on with the class. Huguenard is cn the road to recovery. Jimmie Belot will soon be a finished dancer, said Mr. G. Trier not long ago. According to the papers Jimmie was nearly finished-for sure. A great change has come over Huguen- ard and Schifli since they started wearing longs. They were dignified before but they are sedateness personified now. We are sorry that we must leave you so soon but we must prepare for our elocution contest, the results of which we hope to publish in the Easter Echo. We all want the Father Conroy medal, so watch us fight for the first place. -Edmund Bresnahan, '23. The Juniors want a universal language. Spanish and Latin are playing havoc with their English, and English is playing havoc with recreation and games. Black 4286 gets more calls every day. We'd like to tar and feather Mr. Bell, could we but get at him. Due to the late arrival of our last re- ports we had a Merry Christmas. Boy! Our last reports were some loud. They spelled an unhappy New Year for many we know. The J ournal-Gazette gave our school a new name recently when it referred to the C. C. Hi. S. as the Century High. It might have shortened our name to Alerding High but please cut out the century stuff. JUNIORS Q Echo, April, 1 922.3 Just to let you know who the Juniors are, let me say that the class of '23 is full of pep and first in everything. With Pat. Donahue as president and Joe Clifford as our get- away business manager and captain of the Varsity football team, things auger well for next year. The present Glee Club, com- posed entirely of Juniors, was making a big hit around the Ides of March. Our Washington's Birthday program, re- ported in the entertainment section, was a howling success and helped us out consid- erably in the work of the Elocution Con- test. Robert Suelzer, better known as Bromo, has been out of school for some time as the result of having to undergo an operation at the Lutheran Hospital. THE ECHO 25 RAMBLERS, CHAMPIONS OF THE SENIOR LEAGUE, 1922 Ryan, Suelzer, Luley, Fitzgerald, Bresnahan, Hedekin, Perrey. Be sure and lamp the picture of the Ram- blers, the Senior League champs of this year. All the boys in the picture are Juni- ors. A good number of us hold conspic- uous places in the school picture as well. Our spirit is still unbroken although we are loaded down with Literature and Ci- cero. Most of our class hefties have found time to help Coach Flaherty by rendering their service for football practice. Donahue, Centlivre, lVIcKiernan, Pink Koehl and Cliiord are among the old timers to report while the new line consists of Schoenle, Mc- Evoy, Smith, Perrey, Kallmyer, Schiffli and Hedekin. Joe Perrey has some very convincing ar- guments. The illustration shows Joe after he got four 100's in last examination try- ing to convince one of our friends of the advantages of a couple hours home study. -Albert Schoenlc, '23, Our Orchestra furnished the music for the big banquet on St. Patrick's day, while our Glee Club rendered The Irish Jubilee for the Green, White Sz Orange Club. Pat Donahue and Tom McKiernan tried out at 01'3.tO1'y. The best of all on the program was no school at C. C. H. S. Sunday, March 26, the Journal-Gazette ran a half page cut of the student body of the Central Catholic High School. No won- der the Journal iles are incomplete for that date. The last report cards were complete in every detail. A typewriter fills the blanks and hence more room for remarks in the margin. Better work is being done at night but there is still room for improvement. Arcola Smith is no relation to Floyd across the street.

JUNIOR ELOCUTION CONTEST Thomas McKiernan Awarded Gold Medal Presented by Rev. Thomas M. Conroy. CEcho, April, 1922.5 On Wednesday afternoon, March 15, the annual Junior elocution contest was held in the assembly room. Fathers Dillon, Fallon and Huemmer acted as judges of the con- test. All the recitations were well rendered, and after much deliberation Father Dillon, acting chairman, commented on the excel- lency of the program, congratulated the contestants on their work and extended generous encouragement. As the suspense was growing greater every moment, Father Dillon remarked that but one could be the winner and that the judges after careful deliberation, weighing the merits of the work of each, had decided to give Thomas McKiernan first place. There was no se- lection for second and third places. In behalf of the students, Joe Clifford, captain-elect of the football team, respond- ed, following the announcement of the win- ner, congratulating Thomas McKiernan. He briefly reviewed Tom's work at the C. C. H. S. for the past three years and pointed out that the judges had made a most popular selection. Joe Clifford then led the school in giving the usual nine rahs for the victor, the donor of the medal, and the judges, and finished by giving fifteen rahs for Brother Daniel through whose untiring efforts the contest was carried out. The program follows: Selection ...................... C. C. H. S. Orchestra The Vagahondsn ............... Edmund Bresnahan The Death of 'lloussaint L'Ouvertu1'e ........... .

' The presentation of the Elocution Med- al again evidences the great interest of Father Conroy in the Central High and the young men attending the school. Last fall the Cathedral rector inaugurated the Essay Contest, awarding three prizes and an- nounced that this contest will be an annual affair exclusively for Freshmen. Appointed by the Right Reverend Bishop' to look after the improvements being made on the school building, Father Conroy has spared neither time nor eHort to make our school one of the most up-to-date Catholic high schools in the state of Indiana. JUNIORS fEcho, June. 1922.5 SECOND ANNUAL VAUDEVILLE A newspaper comedy, The Editor-in- Chief, was the all-star number of the bill of the second annual vaudeville of the stu- dents of the Central Catholic High School, May 17-18, 1922. Edmund Bresnahan 1m- personated the editor-in-chief of the York- ville Scream and the scene presented was that of an editorial department of the paper. Patrick Donahue appeared as so- 1 5 IEF CH .1 N- DITOR HEE HT A SCENE FROM 28 THE ECHO ciety editor, much excited over the ap- proaching marriage of a society girl of Yorkville and a millionaire from Chicago. Eugene Cull, political editor, announced to his chief, briberies and frauds in the Fifth ward. Frank Bishop as sports editor, wrote an article on Jack Bottles, pugilist, imper- sonated by Edwin O'Neill, that led to com- plications. Robert Rinehart, editorial writer, was kept busy meeting the demands of his chief, who frequently changed his at- titude concerning local events. Eugene Lu- ley, as cutter, also proof-reader in the ofli- cial family, fell into disfavor and left for New York. James Belot made an excellent foreman of the pressroom, and Edwin Mc- Carthy, politician, became reconciled with the staff of the Scream when political ad- vertising was assured. Edward Kallmyer played the role of the office boy, Harrison, a favorite with all unless something went wrong, when he was responsible. Hanson, Cliford and Haley in This is Our Stop impersonated two tramps and a supposed friend, whom they robbed during a touching story of their need of assistance. McKiernan, McEvoy, Smith, Belot, Don- ahue, Bishop, McCarthy and Bresnahan formed a double quartet and as Eight Wonders of the VVorld rendered several popular numbers. Donahue and Belot in The City Girl and the Country Rube, appeared in a number that was of a professional order, the funmakers giving one of the best sketches on the bill. A song and dance specialty, She's Mine, by T. Mungovan and T. McKiernan, was very good. A little bit of everything by Wm. Foohey, John Hedekin, Joseph Bopp and Edwin O'Neill featured Thursday night's perform- ance. The Glee Club, composed of Juniors and Seniors, closed the program with the C. C. H. S. Victory Song. SENIOR CLASSMEN ARE HONORED BY JUNIORS fEcho, June. 1922.3 Complimentary to the Senior classmen, the Junior class gave its annual banquet Tuesday evening, May 23, at 7 o'clock, in the ball room of the Anthony Hotel. Patrick Donahue, president of the Junior class, Thomas McKiernan, secretary, Aus- tin Centlivre, treasurer, and James Belot formed the committee on arrangements. Covers were laid for fifty persons, sixteen Seniors, thirty-four Juniors and the guest of honor, the Reverend A. E. LaFontaine, our beloved superintendent of schools, who addressed the assembly. Julian Koehl, Senior class president, presided as toast- master, and in behalf of the Seniors ten- dered a vote of thanks to the Juniors. Pat- rick llonahuc responded. Thomas McKier- nan responded to the toast, Life's Prob- lem g Joseph Clifford, Education, and William Foohcy, Gratitude SENIORS I Echo, December, 1922. J All aboard. Train stops at Slushyville, Sloppytown and Misery. The last named was our stop. We arrived at our destina- tion at 7:30 on September 11th. We were in for ten months' confinement with our books. After we got into the building we started to examine the new improvements, we vis- ited the place where the old study hall Was, examined the new rooms, admired the new corridor, tested out the paint, rubbed our hands over the real varnish, lamped the new light, and were just about to jump into the basement when the prefect sent us to Mass at the Cathedral. When Mass was over We returned to the school, where Bro. Daniel assembled the mob and gave a talk on how to behave ourselves. He concluded by saying that We should go home and re- turn at 1 o'clock. During the afternoon sessions Bookkeep- ing and Physics were explained to us in an interesting way. Later we found the classes more than interesting. The second day Coach Flaherty called for football men. Centlivre, Koehl, Clifford, Kinder, McKiernan, Kinstle, Donahue, Suel- zer, Hedekin, Bresnahan and O'Neill re- sponded. A sad blow was given the squad a few nights after when O'Neill was put out of the practice by having his hand hor- ribly mutilated in a pencil sharpener. Rine- hart, unable to play because of a weak knee, was appointed business manager. The third day of school, when McCarthy arrived, it was decided to hold elections and Pat Donabue, 100 per cent for the class, was elected president. This is his fourth term, and We don't think he will Hunk just to hold the office for a fifth year. Austin Centlivre was given charge of the filthy lucre, and James Belot is custodian of the pen. At present we have thirty-two members. McEvoy, of last year's class, went to Cam- pion College, Prairie Du Chein, Wis., to get an early start in pre-medics. The East Wayne Street inseparables of other years struck out for themselves. Huguenard got a hundred in Physics and then started an agitation for a class in Trigonometry. Now we have our hands full. Smith and Bishop are vieing with each other for the distinction of being the social lion of the class. Kallmyer, the pride of New Haven, and Bishop, are the only representatives the Seniors have in the orchestra, but we sure- ly have the Glee club. With Belot, McCar- thy, Donahue, Bresnahan, Suelzer, Cent- livre, McKie1'nan and Smith, our soloist, we have a combination that is hard to beat. The speakers, Donahue, Belot, O'Neill, Cull, McKie1-nan and Bresnahan, all con- tributed to make the Bishop's program a success. VVe're going strong and are all Working hard on The Echo.

SENIORS fEcho, February, 1923.1 Hip-Hip-Bootchy Galoopf' Oh Skinny, come let's go to see Mantellf' Latin's dead. Oh Smithy, let me use some of your hair oil for the Cadillac. We now have a little girlie in our midst. Miss Eugene Cull is the little dearie. She lost her book at the Jefferson and it was returned to her through the mail. The package bore the following address: Miss Eugene Cull, Central Catholic High School, City. An enclosed note read: Please send your telephone number. A new organization in the class is the Senior Sheiks' club. Patrick Donahue was recently initiated with the official hair cut. Fink, too, got a sheik hair cut, and then called the prefect on the phone and said, I can't come to school this afternoon because my side-burns. There was weight behind the prefect's argument the next day, and Fink has been in school every day since then. Norbert Koehl got the mumps and Kin- der was so lonesome that he also got sick. First, love sickg then, real sick. Kallmyer witnessed the eighth perform- ance of Mantell, and has determined to be a Shakesperean actor. Perrey beat him to it, and actually played a conspicuous part with the famous actor at the Majestic. It took the Freshmen, however, to play the mob in Julius Caesar. The Royal Order of Bozos meet every two weeks. Cull, O'Neill, Bresnahan, Ryan, Murphy and Perrey had a big time at a re- cent meeting at Perrey's home. When Clifford tried to prove that he was Irish, he brought a brick in his hand and a chip on his shoulder. Enough said, for Suelzer, Koehl, Kinder and Kinstle started to sing God Save the King. The Seniors are making a good showing in the league. The Ramblers, the champs of last year, and the Fighting Irish will probably be the final contenders. On the Varsity, Centlivre, Bresnahan, Koehl and Ryan are showing the fighting spirit. At a recent class meeting the question of the Senior dance was discussed and it.was practically decided to hold the big affair at Easter time. At the same meeting the question was brought up: When do we eat? Ask the Juniors, they should know. Quite a number of Seniors are attending Mass every day during Lent. That is the right spirit, and we wonder why there are not more doing so. Schoenle and Clifford have been showing the way all year, and their good example has been to some extent contagious. Most of the Seniors were well pleased with the drawing of lots for books to read for English. Belot, Bishop, Rinehart, Fox, Boyle, Schoenle, Passino, Kinstle and Mc- Kiernan seemed to be the lucky ones. We suggest the same nine for an all-senior baseball team. -Edwin O'NeilZ, '23, SENIORS qEeh0, April, 1923.3 , There's no rest for a Senior until after commencement. Our activities and worries are many. Perhaps our greatest worry was our Senior dance, but our Dance Com- mittee, composed of Bishop, Gordon, Mc- Kiernan, O'Neill and Passino, took most of the responsibility and made the event one of the big successes of the season. Our Senior play was the next in order. After two very successful performances in Library Hall, Thursday and Friday even- ings, April 26 and 27, we journeyed to Monroeville for a benefit performance on Sunday, April 29, with a return engage- ment there May 6. On Thursday evening, May 3, the players entertained the Sisters and girls at St. Vincent's Orphanage. The players are Belot, Bishop, Bresnahan, Clif- ford, Cull, Donahue, Kallmyer, McKiernan, O'Neill, Rinehart and Schoenle. McCarthy, Smith, Suelzer and Centlivre joined the players in the Senior Glee Club. Several of the Seniors took part in Father Lothamer's festivities at Columbia City on Monday evening after Easter. All reported a good time. If reports are true, three of our number found special attraction up the line, and are frequent callers in Columbia City now. True to the tradition of the class, we are to have our two picnics again this year. Fitzgerald's farm on Ascension day and Boyle's farm Decoration day is our annual program. We plan to make these the great- est picnics of our career. With two essay contests over, our oratori- cal contest has many of us hard at work at the present writing. Our big worry, how- ever, is about the final examinations and graduation. , .,......., . . .. V . .1 V ff. MA.

Middle Row: O'Neill, Donahue, Bishop. Top Row: J. Belot, Bresnahan, Clifford, Cull, Rinehart. SENIORS' ANNUAL PROGRAM, APRIL 26 AND 27 Capacity audiences Thursday and Friday evenings, April 26 and 27, greeted the Seni- ors in their third annual program. The double bill was one of the most humorous ever presented and every number found fa- vor with the audience. Vacation, an original comedy in two acts, presented a camping scene in the woods and the same camp by moonlight. While the sketch afforded the young men ample opportunity for the introduction of popular songs, the various roles were clever- ly impersonated. Robert Rinehart as Her- bert Wells, alias Jim Parr, formerly cashier of the Empire Bank, and serving as a guide for the vacationists, played the leading role. Edward Kallmycr, as Jack Ashton, of the New York Daily Cyclone, proved how good a pal a real newspaper man can be and be- friended Parr in his difiiculties. Albert Schocnlc, as lVIr. Pemberton, president of 1 the Empire Bank and former employer of Herbert Wells, was one of the campers. He at first failed to recognize in the guide his former cashier whom he had not permitted to make explanation when a deficit was dis- covered, but discharged him. The young man under a cloud had sought the woods and became a guide. Eugene Cull, as Cur- tis Dunbar, a truly good young man, suc- ceeds Wells as cashier, but in the develop- ment of the play it is discovered that he is the culprit guilty of embezzlement. His strenuous efforts to induce Pemberton to leave the camp before he learns the truth, arouses suspicion. The arrival of Joseph Clifford, as Rag- gles, now a tramp, a former odd-job man at the bank, who tells Wells that he is ac- cused of appropriating S5,000, creates a stirring situation. Pemberton attempts the life of Wells who is saved through the ef- forts of Raggles, and in the meantime Jack Ashton acquaints Pemberton with the facts L . x THE ECHO 37 NOT IN THE REGULAR ARMY Below: O'Neill, Kallmyer, Donahue, McKiernan, Cull, Above: J.

The camping scene would be incomplete were it not for Dennis Clancy, impersonated by Edmund Bresnahan, and Thomas McKier- nan, appearing as Toots, the negro cook. Dick Percival, a leading actor in the Bon Ton theater, New York, is Franklin Bishop, the popular pianist of the Senior Glee Club, and a member of the C. C. H. S. orchestra. His role was well played. James Belot, as Old Obidiah Siggins, a farmer with an eye for business, and Edwin O'Neill, as Young Obidiah, his son, kept the house in an up- roar. Patrick Donahue, as G. Elliott Bray- ton, a sweet member of New York society, was the central figure in several situations and never permitted a dull moment. Between acts popular songs were sung by the Freshmen and Senior Glee Clubs. Thomas McKiernan, Maurice Smith and Edmund Bresnahan also entertained with humorous songs and witticisms. Not in the Regular Army, a farce in one act, was presented by the Vacation cast, with Eugene Cull in the leading role as Johnny Slick, the recruiting officer. All of the other players presented themselves for enlistment and he in turn collected money for uniforms and promised to take care of their valuables until their return from war. He already had an outfit of nine men, whom he was putting through a riot- ous drill, when Albert Schoenle, as Officer No. 23, appeared on the scene, took Slick in- to custody and the irregular army dis- banded.

Vacation, an original comedy in two acts, and Not In the Regular Army, a farce in one act, were given by the eleven young men in the cast. The players were accompanied by Senior Glee Club members, who furnished both the vocal and instrumental music. The players accepted the invitation extended by Rev.

WEBER Message From the Land of the Aztecs Theme-Recently Returned From Tour. Carl J. Weber, who recently returned from a trip with a tourist party through Mexico, gave a most interesting address at the Central Catholic High School Monday noon, May 21st. A Message From the Land of the Aztecs was the theme and his travel talk was regarded as one of the finest yet given at the school. It was greatly en- joyed by the Faculty and student body. Mr. Weber graduated from the old Brothers' school in 1883 and was president of the Alumni association of that period. He has always taken an active interest in the C. C. H. S. and was the first to give a gold medal, the custom being established in 1910, since which time he had presented a medal each year. In the tour of the country he visited 28 cities and 53 towns. Many of the churches were Visited and some of these he described. Mexico City has 152 Catholic churches and he gave an interesting historical sketch of the venerable Cathedral, the cornerstone of which was laid in 1573. It was 166 years in course of erection and 218 years elapsed before all decorative work, including the paintings, was finished. He also visited in Mexico the oldest church on the continent, built in 1523, and declared that it resembled the local courthouse dome placed on a foun- dation. The three classes of people, their mode of living and habits were discussed. Mr. Weber explained that many entertained a wrong idea of' the Mexicans, basing their opinions regarding them on the ignorant and illit- erate class. Family life in Mexico was con- sidered, the speaker particularly referring to the young people. In response to, a re- quest of the students he gave an account of a bull fight which he witnessed. BRESNAHAN WINS SENIOR g A ORATORICAL CONTEST Awarded the Father Girardot Gold Medal for Oratory. Edmund Bresnahan was awarded first prize in the Oratorical Contest held by the Seniors in Library Hall on Friday after- noon, May 25th. He will be awarded the gold medal presented by the Reverend Charles Girardot, of the Class of 1913. . The subject of the winning oration was The Hope of Universal Peace. ' ' The contest was very close and it was decided .to give second and third awards. Patrick Wayne Donahue, president of the Senior Class, was given second place with his oration, Catholic Higher Education, and Thomas McKiernan, winner of the elo- cution contest, was awarded third place, speaking upon the subject, Immigration and Labor.

He visited the Central Catholic High School one morning last April and addressed the boys on the ob- servance of law, punishment of its violaticn and described prison life. He made himself extremely popular when it was announced that he was going to take up the annual presentation of a gold medal for Senior ora- tory, in place of the one that was formerly given by the Rev. William C. Miller, late pastor of Sacred Heart Church, Whiting, who was formerly a teacher at our school. Owing to the death of Father Miller there was no award for oratory last year. OUR LABORATORY This has been a year of improvements at C. C. H. S., and one of the most gratifying is our new laboratory. The laboratory is now located in the old cloak room. Two long tables with a dozen gas cocks on each table afford plenty of room for twenty-four chemists to work in comfort at the same time. Yes, in comfort, for the ventilator fan does its work in a very business-like way. The apparatus cabinets built alonff the north and east walls of the laboratory give ample room for storing the chemicals and other equipment without taking up much floor space. The teacher's desk, too, has been fitted with gas, giving it about twice its original usefulness. Both Juniors and Seniors refer to it as the laboratory occasionally, but the Jun- iors prefer to call it the chemistry room, while the Seniors insist that it is the physics room. The Seniors are enthusi- astic over the new air pump and the small motors they assemble. The Juniors are A strong for those new Bunsen burners and the fan. This wonderful improvement has been made actual only through the active per- sonal interest shown by our Reverend Su- perintendent, Father LaFontaine. He has been untiring in his eHorts to make our laboratory expressive of the thoroughness that the sciences are expected to teach. His wise selection of new apparatus-coupled with his progressive policy indicates that our laboratory will improve until it will compare most favorably with any of its size. c The students of C. C. H. S., especially the Juniors and Seniors, take this occasion to thank their kind benefactor for his deep and understanding interest in their needs. -Classes of '23 and '24, THANKS On Thursday, May 17th, the annual Sen- ior Banquet was held at the Anthony Hotel ball-room and without the least shadow of a doubt was one of the best banquets that any Senior of the C. C. H. S. has ever ex- perienced. We wish to use this space as a means of thanking our fellow-students, the Juniors, for making this one of the best spent evenings during our Senior year. One of the most popular annual speakers at the Central Catholic High School. RT. REV. MSGR. J. F. NOLL, LL. D. 42 THE v ECHO CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOLSFK The mistake of establishing a school system in this country, without religion, is today perceived by many, is acknowledged and sadly regretted. The lack of respect for authority, the decay of juvenile moral- ity, the increase in crimes of violence, the prevalence of purely materialistic ideals: all these things fill the minds of thoughtful men with gloomy forebodings and deep con- cern. Thanks to an all-wise Providence the Catholic Church never acquiesced in the di- vorce of religion from the school. At the price of heroic sacrifice on the part of its people, religious teachers and pastors, while supporting a school it could not use, it shouldered the difiicult burden of erecting its own schools, so that the light of divine truth and the knowledge of the Creator should not perish from the land. From lowly beginnings the Parochial School sys- tem of the United States, in spite of in- tense, violent and sometimes passionate op- position, has advanced until now it numbers its pupils by the millions and is the wonder of the world. By giving a parish school education to its children, the Diocese of Fort Wayne ranks with the best of the one hundred and two dioceses of the United' States. It has been thus from the earliest years of its ex- istence. Thanks be to God, this is as it should be! In fact, if there is a parish within the jurisdiction of the diocese with- out a Catholic school, it is so simply because the members of that parish are too few and for that reason financially unable to provide and to support a parish school. For many years our Grammar schools, supplemented by the work of our Academies and Colleges, sufflced to meet our needs, be- cause only a small percentage of our pupils ever went any further than the eighth grade. Today we are facing new condi- tions. The State requires all children to attend school until their sixteenth year, which means that in future nearly all must attend high school. It is no longer necessary to try to persu- ade people regarding the advantages of higher education. Popular opinion has grasped the fact that success depends upon it. Good government requires it, govern- ment by the people demands an enlightened public. It is being recognized more and more that knowledge for itself is worth striving for, since no matter what a man's work may be, a good liberal education opens for him the door to a broader, fuller and nobler life. The question that confronts us is, What shall we do? Shall we wash our hands and say that we are doing all we can and let our children go to the Public High- School? :VA Comniunicalion addressed to the Semi-Annual Cmifercnce of the Priests in the Six Deancries of the Diocese of Fort Wayne, on May 16. 1923. Most emphatically, No! All the arguments that impelled us to establish the Parochial School apply here with-increased force. All educators agree that the high school age is the most impressionable age. Then it is that character is being formed and that the future man and woman takes shape. Vain would be all the sacrifices we have made to instill in the hearts of the children the principles of our holy religion, vain would be all our training in virtue and the beautiful edifice which We have reared would be destroyed, and barely would we es- cape from being buried under its tumbling ruins. Shall we do as we have done for the Grammar schools and let each parish take care of its own high school? This we might do if it were possible. But is it possible? A modern high school is a serious undertak- ing. It requires a big outlay for building and equipment and an expert teaching force, things beyond the resources of the ordinary parish. Except in extraordinary circumstances, the attempt of the single parish to establish a high school is a fail- ure. It generally means crowded quarters, teachers insufficient in number and often in- efficient because burdened with too many gradesg a course of study that leads no- where and an expense that is not justified by the number of pupils nor by the results. Even the State with the unlimited re- sources which it can command does not try to have a high school for every grammar school. Instead, it unites them in groups and sends the pupils to county or city High Schools. There is but one satisfactory solu- tion. It is co-operation. Since We must have high schools we should pool our re- sources. What one parish cannot do, a number of parishes can do with facility and with honor to church and country. We are of one mind regarding the im- portance of Catholic higher education. We want our people to occupy the position they are entitled tog we want leaders, educated men and women, among the laity: we want writers for the pressg We want subjects for vocations, we want the salvation of our country which will surely perish unless the knowledge of God and His teachings are kept alive in the minds of' low and high. We want all these things, but we won't get them by mere talking about them. We must sink our prejudices, calm our fears, unite our eforts and give time, thought and money to this great cause of Catholic High School education. We may not live to see the ripe fruit of this great work, but we may rest assured that future generations will laud our foresight and will call us blessed. To avoid misunderstanding in this matt- er, let it be stated that a school to be con- sidered a high school at all must have a four years' curriculum of studies: nothing less will suffice. Q. THE ECHO p pp W 43 . The diocese now has two Central Catholic High Schools. The one in Fort Wayne was established in 19-09 and is conducted by the Brothers of the Holy Cross, Notre Dame, Indiana. It will graduate its eleventh class next June with 31 graduates. The number of graduates for past years is, for 1913, seven, 1914, eleven, 1915, five, 1916, thir- teen, 1917, seventeen, 1918, twenty, 1919, fifteen, 1920, fourteen, 1921, twenty-eight, 1922, sixteen, 1923, thirty-one. From 1913 to 1923, eleven years, 177 graduates. The list of these young men before me proves how they are giving a splendid ac- count of themselves. All of them have good positions. A number of them have entered Universities for some profession. A priest, ecclesiastical students, Brothers C. S. C., lawyers, engineers, railroad conductors, business, Managers of business, Insurance, Real Estate, Clerks, Banks, Journalism, etc., etc. This is the personal temporal gain of these graduates. How their exemplary lives influenced their neighbors, how their knowledge enlightened bigotry and in- formed ignorant Catholics, etc., is known to God only. The other Catholic High School, known as the Lake County Central Catholic High School, located at East Chicago, Indiana, was opened in 1922. The Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ, a religious community with fine spirit of sacrifice and great outlay of money has purchased extensive grounds and is erecting a beautiful building to serve the purposes of this second Catholic High School in the diocese. And now, my dear Right Reverend and Reverend Fathers, you have given your lives and all you have to the one and only worth-while work on earth, the Apostolic, Christ-like work, the eternal salvation of immortal souls. We have wealthy Catholics in this Diocese and you know who they are, each one of you in his own sphere of priestly labor. Can you, will you, I implore you, make the acquaintance of these wealthy men and women? Communicate to them just a little even of the apostolic zeal that animates your souls. And, God willing, you will succeed. A man of wealth in the south- ern part of the state donated 5B250,000 to- ward a High School. What a High School needs is: 1, the ground, 2, the building, 3, the equipment, 4, to pay current expenses. The height of our ambition is to secure an endowment fund, so as to make the High School a free school This communication is intended to fur- nish the six deaneries the subject matter for discussion and action at the conferences set for May 16 of the current year. Devotedly in Dno., H. J. ALERDING, Bishop of Fort Wayne. Fort Wayne, Ind., April 18, 1923. SCHOOL VVINS ESSAY CONTEST The following account clipped from the Daily American. Tribune of Dubuque, Iowa, is typical of the way the N. C. W. C. News Service supplied the Catholic papers of the country with the news of our victory in the City and County-wide Essay Contest: CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WIN BIG VICTORY Fort Wayne, Ind., March 3.-fSpecialJ- In a city and county wide essay contest just closed, conducted by the Fort Wayne Sat- urday Night and open to all pupils in pub- lic, parochial and private schools of Fort Wayne and Allen county, nine of ten prizes were won by pupils of the Brothers of Holy Cross, teachers at the Central Catholic High School for boys in Fort Wayne, Ind.. Edwin O'Neill, winner of first prize of 520.00 in cash, and Eugene Cull, winner of third prize, are members of the advertising staff of the C. C. H. S. Echo, a sixty-four page highschool quarterly, and hence were best prepared to handle the subject of the essay which dealt with advertising. Robert Litot, Michael Kinder, Raymond Murphy, John Huguenard, Albert Schoenle and George Fitzgerald, seniors, as well as Clay- ton Howard, a freshman, the other winners, also are members of the Echo staff. The only other student among the ten winners was Malcalm Rupp of the Fort Wayne public high school, and he was awarded second place by the judges. The following teachers of English in the Fort Wayne schools were selected to act as judges of the contest: Mrs. Chester Lane, Central High, Brother Gilbert, C. S. C., Central Catholic Hig'h, and Prof. John Klitzke, St. Paul's Lutheran. -,- ----WJ ,,.,, 1 . 61.6.1-IS. 22 i EN MEN LOST BY GRAD .mf 'fgff jigity- x 9 4-7.3119 Qhiiiw --Us--I . ,..... ... ,Fw .g ',.g 5 J 5 j FOURTEEN OF OUR UNDER-GRADUATE PLAYERS ELLA.

C. Hi. S. has enjoyed. Losing but two games out of eight, and taking the City Scholastic Championship is a record of which we may justly feel proud. But this splendid record might have been an- ticipated as nearly all of last year's .regu- lars were still with us. Seven men ln all were lost to the team. Captain Pud Koehl, Hanson and Haley by graduationg Hickman and Eckart left school, while Rinehart and Suelzer, due to injuries, were not allowed to play. The veterans around whom Coach Flaherty built this year's team were: Clifford fcaptainj, Bushman, Donahue, Koehl, Graf, Centlivre, McKier- nan and Mulligan. At the initial call for candidates thirty- two gridders reported for practice. Those who earned a place on the squad by hard work and ability were: Berghoff, Foohey, Fink, McLaughlin, Kinder, Hedekin, Kel- ker, Pequignot, Elliot, Waite, Lynch, Bal- tcs, Rc-lot, B1-csnahan and McGrath. C. C. H. S. LETTER CLUB The C. C. H. S. Letter Club was organ- ized in 1921 and is composed of 28 mem- bers. All students who have won their let- ters in football, basketball, baseball and track, are eligible for membership. The members are: President, Julian Koehlg vice-president, Thomas McKiernang secre- tary and treasurer, Pat Donahueg Norbert Koehl, Howard Pauley, Austin Centlivre, Joseph Clifford, Bernard Kinstle, Michael Kinder, Aurelius Fink, Edmond Bresnahan, Carl Pequignot, Red McLaughlin, Walton Hedekin, Harold Lynch, Joseph Foohey, Anthony Mulligan, Paul Elliot, Robert Suelzer, Charles Graf, Luke Belot, Darby McGrath, Orval Waite, Wayne Bushman, Robert Rinehart. This year 19 men have received letters for football and basketball. The Letter sweaters were given out in the latter part of March. They are royal blue, with two large gold C. C.'s for football and two small gold C. C.'s for basketball. The stripes on the left arm, also gold, represent the number of seasons played. Big Frank lined them up for the old fight in front of the school, and had them snapped in full regalia. SENIOR LEAGUE BASKETBALL Fighting Irish-Clifford, Donahue, Kin- stle, McKiernan, E. McCarthy, O'Neill and Smith. Coach, McCarthy. Ramblers-Fitzgerald, Hedekin, Murphy, J. Perrey, Ryan and Captain Suelzer. Arrows-Captain Kinder, Fink, Rine- hart, Passino, Fox and Belot. Coach, Centlivre. When the players were given the party by Coach Flaherty, the Seniors wished they had more than three teams in the league. It was not that they worried about the league but the eats and beverages went to players only. f. f 63,4 l W. . ' Mm X ,ali .S my L , , ga ,X fe ,,., , H . Q , 4 yy- , . xmfy. .

IF YOU WOULD KNOW ENGLISH There has been a tendency in recent years on the part of the average student, aided and abetted by parents, not to take up the study of Latin, or at least to take as little as possible, on the theory that it is a dead language. This tendency has extend- ed in like manner, though to a lesser degree, to other foreign languages. Modern lan- guages, however, such as German and French, have been given a decided prefer- ence. It is interesting, therefore, to note what recent research of Professor B. L. Uullman, of Iowa University, has brought to light re- garding English words derived from the Latin. He says that an analysis of 20,000 words in the Standard dictionary, grouped in numerous subdivisions, gave the follow- ing figures: Latin derived words, 48.3 per cent, Greek, 13 per cent, Teutonic, 29.7 per cent, and miscellaneous, 9 per cent. Pro- fessor Ullman points out that in the Teach- ers Word Book, containing 10,011 words most frequently found in written and print- ed English, after the elimination of 668 proper names, 47 per cent are of Latin origin, 6 per cent Greek, 41 Teutonic and 5.2 miscellaneous. Two men, according to Professor Ullman, some years ago, took a single chapter or speech from each of 20 American and Eng- lish writers, in addition to the complete works of Rufus Choate. The Latin element varied from 56.5 to 72.5 per cent, and the Latin and Greek together from 63.7 to 75.1 as against a range from 23.4 to 33.4 for the Teutonic. Professor Ullman has also analyzed 2,000 Latin words which are listed in Lodge's Vocabulary of High School Latin and found that 91.3 per cent have English derivatives. This information would indicate, he holds, that more than 90 per cent of the common vocabulary of the Latin has been preserved in the English. From this it would appear that to know English one should study Latin, and that Latin is far from being a dead language. It has passed out of use but it verly large- ly lives in modern English, even more so than the Anglo-Saxon.-The Fargo Forum, January 13, 1923. SENIORS When the Class of '23 leaves dear old C. C. H. S. on June 15th a first-class all- around bunch will exit ready to start in business or continue on to school to receive a higher education in a college or univer- sity. This Class of '23 was 100 per cent both in studies and in athletics. Many of the students in this, our class, ranked as high in the four-year average as any who have ever graduated from our school. In athletics, as every one knows, the school has been putting out whirl-wind teams, the Seniors played a most important part in its success. The Seniors of the C. C. H. S. wish all those who return next year the greatest possible success in all their future endeav- ors both in their studies and in athletics. THE WEATHER BUREAU Bright . ...........................

They are: Pat Donahue, Tom McKiernan, Jake Kallmyer, Bob Suelzer, Skinny Fox, Whitey Hedekin and Gerard Libbing. The object of these camps is to bring to- gether young men of high type from all sections of the country on a common basis of equality and under the most favorable conditions of outdoor lifeg to stimulate and promote citizenship, patriotism, and Amer- icanismg and, through expert physical di- rection, athletic coaching, and military training to benefit the young men individ- ually, and bring them to realize their ob- ligations to their country.

JESSE LOTHAMER The Honored Guest at All Our Picnics ASCENSION DAY PICNIC On May 10th, 1923, the Seniors held the Annual Ascension Thursday picnic at Fitz- gerald's. As it snowed all day Wednesday, it was not until after a debate that we de- cided on having the picnic. But Thursday proved warmer than Wednesday and the snow melted. The football game which had been planned between the Dutch and Irish was cancelled, and two baseball games were played instead. The Dutch winning the first, 11 to 10, and losing the second, 5 to 4. During the afternoon a program was given at the Sacred Heart Academy. As the day drew to a close, all of us, about thirty in number, were willing to return to town, all tired and stiff. THE SENIORS, '23 The time has come for parting, With the school we love best, And memories e're shall linger, Somewhere within our breast. Her name we'll keep familiar, Wherever we may be, In some strange land unknown, Or on a restless sea. For we can ne'er forget her Until the day we dieg We'll praise her name with glory, Our good old Central High. -George Fifzgeralfl. Captain Clifford took the football players REV. J.

THE ECHO TWO FAITHFUL ECHO WORKERS NOT IN STAFF GROUP PICTURE BROTHER GILBERT, C S C Faculty Supervisor of The Echo JOSEPH PERREY, '23 Art Editor of The Echo A GLAD THOUGHT A SENIOR'S FAREWELL Farewell old school, we now rnust part, Thy halls I now deliver, To hiffn who shall receive 'my part, And praise thee just as ever. Thy walls for me shall never ring, Thy voice is still forevcr, But 1ne'1n'ry holds all of the things Which parting can not sever. But age, the thief, steals me away, He laughs and thinks he's clever, If he should only lose his way, Then I'd stay here forever. A TRIBUTE TO OUR TEACHERS We are leaving tonight, amid music and song, The school, and the teachers We have loved for so long, We may wander away to far distant climes, But in spirit We'll linger, near the old school at times. There in silence, you labored, to guide us aright, From wee, early morning, till late in the night, You taught us true Wisdom, but oh, greater still You taught us obedience to God's holy will. How often we tried you and made your heart sad, How seldom We pleased you as made you feel glad, Yet deep in our hearts, is a love that will last, For you, our dear teachers, and the days that are pastg Around the dear school-house, sweet memories will cling, Of the days that are gone, and the joys they bring When we leave you tonight, we leave you with a sigh, We will miss you, dear teachers, God bless you, good-bye. -JAMES H. Farewell to C. C. H. S., We're leaving you for ayeg But though we're glad to leave you We'd hate to see you die. We're leaving you forever, Sad! sad! it is but true. But one glad thought- We'll never cease thinking back to you We want you under claissmen To keep up her dear old name And never let fall below, The list including fame.
