Pal although making no show of the fact, possessed such an astounding store of wisdom that few can boast of having stormed successfully his intellectual ramparts. As a philosopher and student Palfr scholastic achievements were many, and it was he alone who Could, in those uncertain days of our Sophomore year, satisfy the more than exacting demands of Mr. Quilty, and save many from unwillingly endeavoring to improve their penmanship by the rewriting of Homeris Iliad. In every sense a gentleman, Pal has won many friends upon the Hill by his geniality, honor, wisdom, and loyalty. It is difficult to say to what heights such a man will rise. If, in the future, Pal is to he judged by those of superior merit, his judges will be few. Nexuw Club, 4 Sacred Hear! League, I, 2, 5, 4 B. J.

YVhile the faculty was taking his preliminary intellectual measurements, the football mentors werequick to appreciate the value of Tomlr mighty proportions. Nlany a time and oft has the classroom witnessed the versatility of his classic witticisms which blend so well with his good nature. There is a depth of business acumen in Tom, as is evidenced by his many commentaries on the construction of those buildings in the campus which have been in the process of completion during our four years here.

It will be remem- bered that during his first three years on the Hill, Jigga' used a Lizzie as a means of conveyance from the classroom to his daily tasks at Lincoln Square. So extraordinary was his success in his business venture that in Senior year he blossomed forth with a Buick touring as a proof of his pro- fessional ability. His kindness and consideration to his fellow classmates. his many favors and numerous lifts downtown have won for him many friendships that will last for years to come.

Few men who have felt his friend- ship could carry away anything but the sincerest respect for his generosity and good-fellowship. Of a grave and somewhat reticent nature, Rea' was not of the crowd that made known their exploits by boisterous demonstration, but was content to enjoy the fullness of college life in his own quiet manner, equally ready to get the matter or enjoy to the fullest extent an afternoon off. The Civil Service and other activities found him a loyal and cheerful worker, while successive readings of the marks proclaimed his diligence in the classroom. Only too glad to extend the helping hand in time of need, full of a zest for the enjoyment of all that Alma Matei- offered, Rea' has found a lasting place in our memories as a worthy student and a credit to '27. f' Nexuf Club Civil Service dlbany Club, I, 2, 5, 4 League of Sacred Heart Purple Ifey 171.66-Pl't?J'l.LZ,6llf, 4 Foolball, 2, 5, 4 Plzilomaflzic D.

The energy and zeal with which Charlie entered the various activities of this institution was little short of marvelous. If the Tomahawk wanted an article, the Purple Key a bit of burlesque, the Dramatic Society an apt characterization or the hard board track someone to keep it burned up, it was a case of Charlie on the spot. As a Sociologist extraordinary, Charlie has held, in the teeth of opposition, to many novel convictions. But it is as a man about town, boasting a truly enormous circle of friends and with the happy faculty of chortling as heartily as any at a joke on himself, that Charlie will be longest remembered. Poet, philosopher and financier, Charlie cannot fail to win for himself an exalted place in the business world of old Gotham.

For four years a faith- ful member of the Philomathic, a devotee of lectures, plays and recitals, a lover of music and literature, Jim takes with him a vast and well assorted fund of information, a keen brain with which to use it, and an aptness to speak which becomes evident whenever he can be prevailed upon to show it. Not that Jim hasn't his lighter side. In the cavortings of the Purple Key, he was the wildest buffalo of all-his sincerity of purpose demanding that he make himself as excellent a clown as a student.

For after an absence of two years, due mainly to sickness, we found him again in our ranks ready to carry on with the determination of a true scholar and gentleman. Certainly Pele is both, for his diligence as a scholar and his manly conduct since we have come to know him has won for him a place of esteem in the hearts of Twenty- Seven. Scholastic endeavor did not claim all of Pete's time for the gossipers have it that he might be seen any Sunday night boarding a Hamilton Street car which would take him to the celebrated Bogw. To quote the Cally Club,- this may account for the attraction Worcester has for him.

Essentially an optimist, he has spread his humor far and wide, and it has often been our fortune to listen eagerly to his drawling imitations of the Witwver whom he will perhaps excel. His fame as a banjo player has spread from the North Shore to the tower- ing heights of New York, and he has often held us listening admiringly to the soft strains of Way Down Upon the Swanee River or to the pulsat- ing, maddening chords of Alabamy Bound. So great a power did he exert over music, that he very often changed a frowning face to one joyously radiant with happiness. A veritable dynamo of nervous energy, Dolly was continually engulfed in a whirlpool of activities, in all of which he succeeded and more than satisfied the exacting demands of the Hsystemf' Versatile, generous, hopeful, energetic, and ambitious Dolplz will ever laugh at failure and embrace success.

Many of his leisure moments have been passed in the library, and he will be remembered also as a frequent attendant at the meetings of the various research societies.

We must have heard the roll of Thor's hammers on that day when we returned to Holy Cross as sophomores, and met Iohn, a transfer from St. Bonaven- ture's. A good friend, sincere and sympathetic, a keen minded offerer of advice in any crisis, Iohn was labeled in a very short time a real fellow, and before long was one of the class leaders. Never have the crowds of sporting enthusiasts who attend the games at Fitton Field seen a cheer leader who could equal Iohn for enthusiasm and ver- satility. His individuality on the field, his co-operation with his mates, his unusual feats of tumbling, have indellihly marked him in the memory of students and visitors. Hospitality is one of Iohn's most striking characteristics. His morris chair is known to have been occupied for hours at a stretch by visiting philos- ophers. We will miss you, Iohn, your opinions, your advice, your cheer lead- ing, and most of all, your friendship.

His frequent week-encl excursions to the old home town are eviclence of ex- cellence along another line.

The seemingly gargantuan diffi- culties of our college days disturbed Tom not in the least nor deflected him from his steady peaceful way. How many of us used to drop into his room, especially in Iunior, with agitated heart and seething mind only to leave greatly soothed and with a more philosophical view of our troubles after having a chat with the im- perturhable T om. He brought the calm to many troubled waters. It was, perhaps due to this trait that Tom was able to get the stuff so well. For get the stuff he certainly did. It was a quarterly occurrence to see him while marks were being read, jot clown a pair of 90's, and settle hack with a quiet smile. The still pool gathers many fish and Tom will gather many rewards.

His dramatic announcement of the end of the world in Alumni, the astounding deeds performed with his little vernier caliper, his reminiscences with Buck in Beaven, will forever bring a happy light into eyes dimmed by the fumes of acids or the endless phalanx of philosophical definitions. Nor were his powers confined to this alone, for when not aiding us to look at the world through rose colored glasses he struggled with Xenephon, Horace, or simple apprehensions, and how could one displaying as much earnestness and thoroughness fail, when he wished to succeed? Loyal, true, and just, he will find roses where others find thorns, and write his successes boldly on the pages of life. B. J.

Nor have these years been spent in a fruitless search for knowledge, success or friend- ship, for cheery smiling Iohn has left an imprint on the hearts of all Twenty- seven that will long be cherished. Though he is of a retiring and slightly reticent nature, our intimacy with Iohn could but reveal his affectionate, devoted personality, tireless in his en- deavors to make everything a success, full of generosity, kindness, and having a naturalappreciation of all that was good and true. Fully developed as was his sense of humor and love of repartee, he proved himself the best of companions on every occasion. To further delineate Jactcir character, would be but to repeat Newman's definition of a gentleman.

Reserved and almost re- ticent in his habits, Clzarley has not allowed the various upheavals about him in the class or the college to disturb the even tenure of his ways. The only occasion on which Clldflflll would really evince any great enthus- iasm was the approach of the baseball season, when as an ardent fan and player he would be seen cavorting about Freshman Field nsnagging the high ones and the liners with consummate skill and relish. The diHicult intri- cacies of chemistry, that stumbling-block of many a Sophomore, proved to be merely an easy put-out for Charley, as his numerous testies in this sub- ject will show. And so as the gathering weeks speed on towards graduation we find it increasingly harder to realize that his familiar figure will no longer be seen among us, and yet it makes more earnest and sincere our wishes for his success and triumphs in the future. ff? ri fif- Clzefrzzlrlfr Club, 4 B.

An interesting conversationalist, a jovial classmate, an excellent student, and last but not least, a sartorial artist of no mean ability, Cav will surely attain all the success we wish for him.

Hftber W EDMUND GERARD CHARLAND Jlarlboro, Jlarnracfz u.fefl.J' The entrance of this quiet exponent of culture into the ranks of the class of '27 was an event for which we and the hamlet of Marlboro have often had reason to be thankful. Ed has been an ideal student, bearing his knowledge and exercising his talents with the sincere humility and unseltishness that so fittingly characterizes the true scholar. His patient, persistent scholarship opened up for him the glory and beauty of the ancient and modern classicsg and as time went on, the complexities of Physics and Chemistry, as well as the subtleties and niceties of Scholasticism fell before his onslaught. Ed started his college career as a boarcler, but in the course of time joined that earnest band of high minded men who always have a facile excuse for cutting first hour class by virtue of the lapses and discrepancies of the local Toonerville Trolley. There can be nothing but happy memories of Edg his friendship was valued and treasured, and we postulate as certain his success in the field of his future activity.

Besides these, he boasts an artistic tempera- ment, seeking for beauty in nature and literature, a love of poetry and a skill in the use of the pen which won him a place on the Patcher Board. No after-eleven smoke could ever be a success without George's clroll humor to enliven it 3 likewise many a fair debutante may thank him for the success of a gathering. The most difficult task in the world is to analyze a person's popularity, but we think that a brilliance of mind, an unassuming manner, and the friendliest smile and nod in the college may explain George's. These same qualities will make him one of the Titans of the Paper City.

In the inquisitorial hurricanes, Jack was never known to request a life- preserver or to lose a ship. All his acts are planned with military carefulness- never a burned bridge behind him, always a line of retreat, which however, Jack seldom had to use. Altogether an admirable mental strategist. And his acumen is joined to an earnest, thoroughly likeable disposition,-a continual willingness to help and an unfailing consistency in coming through with the aid he has-promised. When Jack has passed into the ranks of the Alumni, though we shall miss him, we shall take comfort in the success that he is bringing to himself and the credit he is bringing to the Cross.

Have1'fzL'll, Jfainfa cfz Lorelhr Wliether or not we are justified in assuming that Jack, like Hillaire Belloc, believed that there is nothing worth the wear of living but laughter and the love of friends, is diihcult to say. The fact remains, however, that his irre- pressible wit and spontaneous humor have brought joy to many a sorrowful heart, and his frankness and loyalty won him a legion of admiring friends. The soft strains of his violin have often blended with the strum of Dolly's banjo to produce notes which soothed the wild beasts of Lower Loyola, and so great was his ability as a musician, and so pleasing was his personality, that we found him upon our return in Senior year as President of the Musical Clubs. Sorrow and joy commingle in our parting, Jacky sorrow that we must lose the pleasure of your companionship, and joy at the thought that frank and generous as you are, you cannot fail to impress others as you have us, as one of the great Holy Cross men.

The passing of the last sixteen seasons brought about a marvelous develop- ment of these potentialities-making out of the eager aspirant for knowledge a sage and profound student-of the embryo musician one of the mainstays of the college Orchestra and Band. George's hankering to 'chase baseballs soon gave way to an eagerness to pursue the even more elusive ions and chromosomes, with the ultimate purpose of laying low the cohorts of bacilli, and all their brothers and cousins.

Quiet by nature, Ed has always kept away from the footlights, but his fine qualities, never-the-less made themselves evident. His determination and stick-to-itiveness will avail him much in later life, just as his Congeniality has made him a truly popular classmate.

Always willing to help, his knowledge of the classics and other bits of wisdom has proved an aid time and again in over- coming stumbling blocks in our pursuit of the ratio stucliorumn. As far as the worries of books were concerned Joe was an academic oracle. Whatever activity he joined found him a diligent worker and partner and although not mentioned as often as some, many Day Scholar activities owe a vote of gratitude to the splendid efforts exerted by Joe.

If this is true, then Reggie is predestined to a full possession of the end of all his aims and ambi- tions, for initiative and perseverance are his sword and shield. From the very first day of our acquaintance with Reggie we were dimly cognizant of those latent qualities 5 as acquaintanceship ripened into friendship, we became forcibly struck with the knowledge of their existence, and as friendship is about to terminate, we naturally conclude that those very same quali- ties, ripened and matured, will be the terminus a quo of Reggfe'.r conquest of life. Therefore we have no fears on that score. And it is this knowledge which gives the parting its silver lining.

We find ourselves in much the same predicament. Stretclz has so many good points-and this does not refer to his tall and somewhat angular frame-that we are fearful lest, in setting them down, we be accused of hyperbole. What in Oliver is most calculated to impress an observer is his earnestness and sincerity. Halfway measures hold no attractions for him. Let him but enter upon any activity and he may straightway be classed as one of its most ardent devotees. This characteristic manifests itself also in the quest of pleasure, and many a good time has been the more enjoyable because of his presence. The proof of his amiable disposition may be found in the fact that it remained unchanged even through the violence of many a midnight interruption of his slumbers. ' Iudging from the nature of the volumes we have seen on his desk, Stretch is already preparing for an extensive onslaught against the portals of the business World, which he should find no great difficulty in storming.

Pink'.r buoyant disposition is balanced by his energy in all the activities of the class. It was largely through his efforts as Chairman that the Newman Club's dance was such a success, and the class chose him for the important task of conducting the Senior Ball. Pink was President of the Holyoke Club in Senior and has always taken an active part in the social functions of that organization. His reliability as the oracle of fashion is well known.

His hair was neatly cropped and he was clean shaven, the first and last time in four years, for Joe espoused the theory Clothes do not make the man. The theory must be correct, for under long hair and beard, a heart of gold beat strongly against his immaculate negligee. Applications for crew positions on the good ship 27 were rapidly being filled and Walter had to ship as a deckhand. He bore the task bravely, and on shore leave distinguished himself from the rest of the crew by filling a seat in the pit at all Dago Operas and shouting Bravo with a distinctly Latin twang. His natural instinct for music brought him immediate recognition from Mr. Bouvier, and many a deserted village suspended curfew for the evening while Walter and his colleagues searched for the Lost Chord. When work was to be done, Walter did it quietly and efficiently, never look- ing for publicity, but always satisfied with a task well done.

If it were only in the meagre capacity of beadle, this young master of ceremonies from the Bison city expressed a willingness and a promptitude for work that was astonishing. Whether debating, singing, purveying books in the library or assisting in the humble duties of the sanctuary, Jack endeared himself as one who was ever ready to lend the helping hand. Perhaps the greatest tribute to Jackhr popularity both within his own class and throughout the entire student body was evinced on that occasion when he was elected to represent Alma Mater as the delegate to Rome last Christ- mas.

In fact, so satiated is Tom with the joy of living that it seems impossible to check his enthusiasm and his zeal for further social triumphs. His success along this line has been signal, as witness his title, Mr. Fixitn, which appellation his post-game affairs in Boston and other celebrations certainly warrant. Within the walls, Tom never had much to say about it, but you never lose the impression in him of that saying: Strong as the Rock of Gibraltar. Wherever modest, unremitting effort counts for anything Tom will carry off the prizes. His generosity, good-fellowship and loyalty have gained for him a legion of admirers, Whose high regard and well wishes he carries with him into the Great Outside. Pro. of Lea. of S.

His popularity among faculty members, as well as fellow-students was largely responsible for his appointment in Iunior to the position of Librarian of the Musical clubs, the largest undergraduate society in the college. With his merry jests and wholesome humor he has done much to take the weariness out of the cold winter months. Long will the memory of Durlcofr inimitable characterizations of famous personages cause a quiet smile when- ever they are remembered. However, with all his good cheer, Durlc has not overlooked his scholastic duties. He has worked hard in his sojourn on the Hill.

H ROBERT THOMAS DWYER Roch emler, New York One of three hundred unknown quantities, known collectively as the Class of 1927, Bob entered the portals of Holy Cross in the fall of 1925. This son of Rochester who came unheralded, departs rightly and unanimously ac- claimed as the Chestertonian Chesterfield of '27, These two words epitomize his scholastic and social abilities. His ability to speak on all topics: Sports, politics or literature, without super- ficiality, made him interesting company in any group. A recognition of these qualities and of his services during our first three years on the Hill won for him the coveted honor of Senior Class President. The pen is mightier than that sword -and we who know Bob say this is no idle proverb. Already his trenchant pen has attracted favorable notice from the daily press. Scholastic philosophy and a keen, witty intellect make a combination not lightly disregarded. Good-bye, Bob, and good luck from the Class of 1927, who honor you and to whom your presence brought honor.

Nor was his room ever deserted, for none could help but rejoice in Gu.f'.f clean ringing laughter, and pleasant companionship. Wlietlier peacefully watching his cares depart upon the curling smoke which came from his briar, confounding the now returned Cavvy with humorous and sardonic tirades against all the latter held dear, or patiently pouring over his chemistry notes, Gum was ever optimistic, and if it is true that the world can be won by a smile, it is already his. Possessing an enthusiasm which has never been dampened, ever loyal, determined, resolute and cheery, Guw cannot fail to boldly blaze his successes on the winding, tortuous trail of life, and should he follow Medicine as his pro- fession, it is certain that its ranks shall never boast of a more honorable phy- sician and upright man than he.

He can mix study and exercise into a pleasing synthesis. Billff predilection for attending matinees during his free afternoons is as well known as his social activity, the sphere of which includes Worcester, Springfield, Boston and Brockton. The avidity with which he devours the sporting page attests his great athletic enthusiasm, which combined with his intellectual attainments makes an extremely well-balanced nature. Men of Billfr type are needed even more than the good five cent cigar, and he leaves the Mount equipped for a highly successful career.

His appearance, from the first day he strolled up Linden Lane has always been immaculate and perfectly appointed. The answer of what to wear and how to wear it is found in a casual glancekat Bob's neat attire on all occasions. We soon learned to admire and respect the opinions expressed by this slender youth from Providence. But the coup de grace came with the pres- entation last year of Iacqueline . A slender, Winsome, black-haired young lady was seen dancing in the feminine chorus. When the performance was over and identities were made known, we came to the conclusion that our class numbered among its members, a rival of the famous Iulian Eltinge, for the Winsome one was none other than Bob. We are led, on good authority, to believe that many hearts have palpitated among the feminine talent of towns near and far at a glance from Bob, and continued to flutter long after he and the Glee Club had departed. May you enjoy the success in life, Bob that you have so justly earned at Alma Mater. R. I. Club, 1,2,5',4 Soplz Smoker lo Froflz, 2 B. V. 171.

Jamaica Pla ln, JIa.r.raclzu.rell.r The cynic who said that nothing good ever came from Boston should have spent four years in the company of Bill. He entered our midst as a high jumper of repute, and this crown was soon to he augmented hy others before the first few weeks of our college days were over. The trait, which was to become a Feenian characteristic, came to light in the scholastic atmosphere of Freshman English. Bill liked nothing better than an assignment to write satiric poetry and Freshman A enjoyed more than one such effusion. His predominating trait is reticence. Secondly, he does not take the world too seriously. The foibles and humor of men's lives are his chosen prey, and that drawling voice is the terror of the vain and pompous. No more genial companion for delight or discussion could he found on the Hill. So Bill leaves us and in him we pay honor to the gentleman, the scholar and the athlete. He deserves success and with his temperament cannot fail to he happy, which is as we would wish. Happy days, Bill. Track, I, 2, 3, 4 B. J. F., 2, 3' Conlribalor lo the Purple, I, 2 B. V. 171.

Despite his high scholastic standing, we shall remember Jack mostly for his love and talent for melody. At any hour he might be heard plaintively in- quiring as to the whereabouts of his lost kitten or extolling in his sweetest tenor the virtues of one Iudy. This vocal prowess won him a prominent place in the Glee Club, and few Saturday evenings passed on which Jack did not find opportunity to indulge in a dreamy waltz. Possessed of firm convictions and a speculative mind, he won many op- ponents to his way of thinking. A kindly, sympathetic friend, Jack leaves the Hill with the well-wishes of the class to speed him. Glee Club, 3, 4 Sancluary, I, 2, 3, 4 1Vexu.r Club B. V.

Lewzlrlon, fllalne To express suitably our tribute to our rugged varsity tackle would require the filling of a volume, and then much would be left unsaid. For Jack, during his football career on the Hill, has been one of the principle mainstays of our Purple eleven. In large part was it due to his fighting qualities and unyielding spirit that the Purple banner has floated triumphantly over the field of many a hard-fought gridiron struggle. But football is not the only line of endeavor in which Jack excels. His sterling character and quiet unassuming ways won for him the admiration of his classmates to such extent that for three years he guided the destinies of the class from the presidential rostrum. And during those three years under the conduction of this energetic leader the class of '27 made the name for itself of steadfast men and true. Hence we know that when lack departs from the Hill he will go only to take his place in the world, a natural leader of men, a fount of inspiration to them and a well of ustifiable confidence and pride in himself, as one who having done all things well, merits his just reward.

Behold in this young gentleman the original inquiring reporter. An avid thirst for knowledge possesses this member of '27, a cosmopolitan thirst, not confined to questions on the length of the Greek stage nor the cut of Cicero's dress. A lively, sunny disposition and an un- limited power of persuasion are his twofold Sesame to any group. In Spring and Autumn whoever seeks abroad may find him on the tennis courts, of which game he is an ardent and skillful devotee. Evidently beguiled by Horace's tribute to the sock and buskin, Fflz entered the ranks of the Dramatic Society and has been a worthy member of many casts. Who will forget the pleading figure of Iunior year and the moving question, Can't I play in your garden? or the sympathetic fruit and pastry girl of Cyrano',?

To say that the class has been the gainer, and the class of '26 the loser, is but a slight indication of the great popularity that Paul has enjoyed during his brief stay with us. The apparent ease with which Paul makes friends has ever been a source of wonder and admiration to all, and for an inmate, his knowledge of Worcester and its citizens is remarkable. Few social affairs of note lacked Paul's grace and eclat, and as a devotee of the E. A. R. game he had few equals. Paul is a profound Worshipper at the shrine of Nlorpheus, and the hours he has spent in the arms of that deity amply proved his pet thesis that consciousness is both a stupid and unnecessary sensation. Into whatever field of endeavor Paul may carry his cheerful personality, there will he surely find the heartfelt good wishes of the class of '27 for his happiness and future success.

His outward demeanor is serious and quiet, befitting the scholar that he is. He took Chemistry and Pre-Medic and liked them so much that the title of scholar is no idle one. For the world in general Jerry always has a pleasant smile. Even his infrequent grumblings are donesa la Will Rogers. Whenlserious discussion is in order his conversation is equal to the task of covering a wide range of topics. His position as librarian may account for the extraordinary knowledge which he possesses. So ohliging and amiable is Jerry that it is his constant delight to go out of his way to extend help. Few ever see him low spirited, and his cheerfulenss is real, expressing itself in actions not in words. Perhaps the greatest thing we shall miss in leaving is Jerryff ability to see the silver lining to all the dark clouds of school life. Wherever you go, Jerry, we wish you all the luck for the fun and kindness of which you were so prodigal in these four years. Sancluary Soclely, 4 Clzelnzlrlir Club, 4 League of S. H., 2,524 14.r.rl.

In the summer following his Iunior year, Roland was one of the representatives from Holy Cross at the great Eucharistic Congress, winning the coveted honor in an essay contest, being constructive as well as critical in the gentle art of writing. This love of reading has endowed Roly with a remarkable keenness of intellect, an excellent insight into persons and things of nature, and with an admirable character. Mens sana in corpore sano can readily be applied to him, for study of literature did not keep him from exercising, from developing the enviable build that he possessed, from growing as a fairly little fellow in Freshman year into one of the big boys in Senior. Nothing but success can come to one of such education and character. B. V. III. Sod., I,2,3',4 Bklyn. Club, I,2,5, flfel., 4 Lea. of S. Hearl, l,2,5,4 B. J.

ZQEEEQE EDWARD GEORGE GRIFFIN Wareham, 17Ia.r.racha.rel!.r From a famous haven of deep water sailors came Ed. The transplanting was an immediate success. When not receiving medals from Father Rector for proficiency in studies, the skipper was usually found enlightening back- ward studes in current philosophical thought, or driving the cleanup boys in the Refectory. Having a soft spot in his heart for the Freshman, Ed always made the place so reminiscent of home to them that they hated to leave it. Moreover, Brother McCarthy and Ed always agreed that whatever Ed said was right. The large number of his friends is amazing when one realizes that Ed never smokes. The class made no mistake when it entrusted to him the management of the Senior Play. Good luck, Skipper. May we meet more like you in the years to come.

St. Iames by the police authorities who figured that in his case distance would lend enchantment. A man is judged by the company he keeps, and Bill'.r friends on the Freshman football club were no tea-hounds. They lathered in cold water and shaved with beer bottles. But Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now. He traded his gat for a quill, and the billy holds clown the odes on his desk. Iustly has he been voted The Man of '27 who has done most for Holy Cross. Space forbids a true chronicle of his activities. He was gifted as a student, speaker, writer and dramatic coach, and proficient in whatever he undertook. Others may honor Bill by calling him the most brilliant man at Holy Cross in a decade , but we, his pals for four years, believe that the greatest tribute we can pay to Bill is to say He was a regular fellow.

This is no fairy tale my friend, but the story of a man who knew his task and did it. Zane Grey alone could change his appearance and then merely in fiction, for Bill was as steady as a Stock House performance, but never as ordinary. Reverently he held court every evening, poring over his volumes, while his wicked fellow men held the inevitable Bull Session on everything from the high cost of ear-mulfs in Panama to Child Labor. Perhaps he was born wise, with a full set of teeth and a flowing beard and is fooling us all by living his life backwards. If this he true, Bunny will provoke anyone who is a stickler for system, for Bill is too sensible to grow young and die with the rattle in his hand and his sense of humor will prevent old age's attack.

It was he who sharpened their eyes to the shoots and curves of enemy pitchers, it was he who was responsible for the heavy hitting which smothered so many of our foes. His ability in the classroom was equal to if not greater than his athletic capability. But far greater than this it was his open-hearted smile, his amazing modesty, and his never ceasing fun with all, that made his friendship so treasured.

Never completely given over to rabid declamations and praises of that famous Skeeter prep school, Tommy was more inclined to prove by clear reasoning and unmistakable logic the supreme achievements of her athletes and the unimpeachable record of her graduates. His keen ability to throw the adversaries for a loss has kept Tommy in the front ranks of the scholarly at every reading of marks, while his fre- quent excursions into the wild morasses of the Ubogsn attest his avidity and success in matters social.

It is no small tribute to Bill-y'.r energy and ability that he should become one of the busiest and most widely known members of Twenty-seven. In the first place Bill is one of the most talented fellows we have ever met. He can write you a play, a short story, a poem, a column of humor, he can draw you a picture, serious or comic-as witness the pages of this present Annual, of which he is Art Editorg he can speak, he can compose a song and execute it to .perfection on the piano 5 he can run a dance or manage a play. But with all his accomplishments, Bill is as modest a youth as you will find, always anxious to please, always the first to do a favor. Few men in recent years have gone forth from the Hill with as strong a sword and heavy a shield as he. Clam' yl'C6-Pf6JldEHl, 3 Claim' 13l'l.lEf'ltZL'I'l.,I ,2,3,4 H.

He is not of the vociferous type and never regarded publicity as the Hsummum bonum of life. But when the different college activities were looking for recruits, he was found to be a loyal supporter and an enthusiastic participant. The Glee Club gave a hearty welcome to his voice and the Dramatic Society eagerly accepted his histrionic ability. Clzarlle'.r room decorations have always been one of the seven wonders of the class. He and his roommate gained a wide reputation for interior art work. Long discussions on actors, past, present and future, on opera and jazz and Clzarlle'J apt contributions to such are part of our memory. His auburn locks crown a cheerful countenance and a winning smile which faced the ups and downs of the Hill unaffected for four years. His friends know him as one eager to help, loyal to any responsibility undertaken, and as the best of com- panions. B. V. JI.

A remarkable good nature makes Ifodge'.r frequent forensic discourses a treat, and not infrequently an education. Clark is always ready to take either side of a question, for the sake of a good argument. And when it comes to topics of the day whether in the political, social, sport or any other line he is right there with the final reports. His dry wit and cheery manner have made him one of the live wires of 27 . Many the day he has brightened by his clever witticisms, and many the time the boys have chuckled over his tales of Pennsylvania politics. In the class- room he was a diligent worker, ever anxious to grasp and analyze the funda- mentals of a new system. Beyond a doubt, Clark will attain the pinnacle in whatever he may choose as an occupation. We are certain that his sunny disposition and warm smile will go a long way in helping him to his goal.

In spite of his size-for little men are usually inclined to be noisy-he is exceedingly quiet, a trait acquired most likely from devotion to study. George is primarily a student, so much so that the deep abstractions and intricate principles of Scholasticism were to him a dear delight, as one Plato was fond of referring to his beloved study of philosophy. In keeping with his studious nature George is known for his excellent disposi- tion, his pleasantry of character, his fine ideals, a person of such nature that one was ever glad to hold conversation with him and to be in his company. His future will be an adequate fulfillment of such nature and such ideals as we have found him to possess in our acquaintance with him these past four years.

To say that Pud is rich in the possession of countless friends, that he is a man without prejudice and a deep student is to give only an incomplete index of his character.

Pu! has always shown himself to be a real comrade and although we are not yet acquainted with his ambition in life, his sincerity and determination can- not fail to carry him far in his chosen field.

Aclmirative of things athletic it was but natural that Jim shoulcl connect himself with some branch of sport, for Jim was a star linesman for three years at St. Iohn's High, but at Holy Cross Jimff first thought was for the books. However, his devotion to the football squad of which he was a member was generous and constant. Rumor has it that Jim will enter the teaching profession.

A person just couldn't help taking to him and his cheerful, pleasant manner. As a result he was in great demand outside the college as well as inside. This demand was augmented by the fact that he was a most popular member of the orchestra. As the second president of the newly formed Chemist's Club, Don stood in the front rank of the class's embryonic organ wreckers. Une of Don's greatest assets was his imperturbability. The problem that could worry him was pretty serious. To see him concerned over anything was to see a strange sight. Never too busy to do a good turn for a classmate, Don was always ready with any kind of help within his power. Sure, I'l1 do that for you, was an ex- pression often heard from him. Exceedingly remarkable is the man who could achieve the esteem and affection which the class holds for Don. Orclzarlra, 2, 5, 4 Prem. Chem. Club 4, IJ! Sem. Haryord Club, I,2,3,4 Mendel Club, 5, 4 B.

River, Jla.r.raclzme!Lr Joe has always believed, with Pope, that to drink deep of the Pierian Spring is the only worth-while thing to do, with the result that he has acquired a keen perspective in many fields of knowledge. Not only has Barney assim- ilated all the serious thought that the Ratio affords, but in his leisure hours, has enjoyed the foremost masters in the literary world, and enriched his own wit with the whimsicalities of Peter Finley Dunne and Nlark Twain. In debating circles, Joe'.f voice and arguments are heard as often as machine guns in a Chicago feud, and quite as effectively. His business ventures con- sisted largely of a certain baseball pool for the pecuniary interest of the boys, and, incidentally, of himself. To put it concisely, let us say that Joe is a gentleman nonpareil, a fellow whom one likes immediately and instinctively, and a student of distinction who will some day impress still larger groups than he has in the past.

From the position of Freshman Treasurer to that of Business Manager of the Toma- hawk, he has manifested exceptional talent. With such able hands on the financial reins, we are not at all surprised when the Tomahawk was able to inaugurate a semi-weekly edition. As Chairman of the New Iersey Club Dance, he insured its success by his usual untiring and well-directed effort. Like so many successful business men, Tom has a hobby.

Jerry was born with a grease pump in his hand, baptized with gasoline, confirmed with motor oil, and will probably die with a spark-plug on the brain. We honestly believe that Jerry will rise indignantly from his coffin and refuse to ride to the grave in anything but a straight eight. But to get away from the mechanical side of Jerryfr nature, a harder worker and better student cannot be found in the 1927 model. He is built for com- fort, not for speed, good on the hills, steady in a long pull and one of the most popular of the standard cars. And it is such qualities as these, factory testecl, that will make him a best seller in the open market. Stick to the four-wheel brakes, Jerry, and you wont skid in bad weather.

It is rumored throughout the school that young Robert while in his teens broke up a bull fight by thinking too loudly during the action. Spain is still paying him a government pension to remain out of the country. This will give you a fair idea why Robert unpacked his knickers and tennis racket at Blount St. Iames in preference to Salamanca. A marine lawyer Bob will be, that is, if they have some French names on the ship menu, if not his foot will never rest on the barn The authorities tried hard to change his taste with little success.

His sterling qualities impressed not only classmates but pro- fessors as well, and he became very popular with both. His one famous weakness was his patriotism to Pennsylvania and all it included. No more loyal a son was ever produced! However, Jae soon transferred his loyalty to Holy Cross. Never one who carried the hall over for the winning score, nor across the plate for the tying tally but one who made the cheering section re-echo with his lusty Hoiahs. Joe'.r future has been kept quite a secret but it is Whispered around the campus and generally believed that he is to take a position with the Penn- sylvania Boostersu club.

At times he is a dreamy, romantic and imaginative person who retires from the humdrum banalities of every day life and creates for himself a more delightful world of fancy. In the light of this it is not surprising that he possesses rare musical ability. He has no desire to display this talent, although playing with equal ease a Brahms sonata or the latest hit. Again there is the quick-witted student, with the courage of his convictions and frankness in expressing them. Jackir faultless attire and debonair mannerisms have won him the title, The Prince.

Though in our midst hut two years, J im has indelihly imprinted the stamp of his talent and ability upon us forever. The library could seldom be visited without seeing him poring over the volumes of philosophical colleagues and adversaries. Clzappyh' innate tendency to respect always the opinions of another, even while trying to argue him out of them, has ever been a source of real pride to us all. We can hardly recall that a social function has been complete without the presence of his pleasant personality, and his monumen- tal sense of humor. A smile, a sound opinion, a hit of humor for all, an actor of talent, a gentle- man with an inexhaustible fund of anecdotes-that is Jim.

He is in a class by himself. V Exacting professors and stern prefects have meant nothing in his young life. All of them he met with that easy nonchalance which has made him so famous. But aside from all this Dan is especially distinguished for the remarkable ease with which he amasses the matter for the stiffest of exams. Yet, never, even in his easiest day, which is Sunday,-for Dan is a rabid football fan and spends almost the whole clay devouring the achievements of gridiron heroes-was he too busy to eagerly come to the assistance of any of his friends who might be struggling helplessly in some philosophical mire. And so, Dan, when you depart, this your noblest trait will stand you in good stead, bringing many true friends who will aid you in securing the success that will surely be yours, and enabling you to look forward to the future with unalloyed confidence.

We shall remember a good turn here and there, acts of sincere friendship, and above all as generous a heart as we have ever been privileged to know. An unfailing enemy of buncombe in all its forms, George's was ever the voice raised in meetings on the side-and often the unpopular side-of common sense. Our judgment of George may be summed up in this: He was my friend, intelligent and true, may the gods prosper him. B. V. 171.

As betits one who looks to the Bar as his ladder of Fame, the debating Society engaged Billfr attention and found him a persuasive member. To show his interest in the things of the age, he joined the Scientific Society. His lecture on Weather Forecasting was especially interesting to us here in New England. Bfllfr help was as readily given to all as it was worth getting, and being given often to minority causes led him into many prolonged debates.

Nor will this be any new task for him, since he has been doing that very thing for four long years of civic apostle- ship.

It is not easy to say who benefits the most, now that Tom is returning It may be himself, enriched by four years of diligent research among the archives of the ancients and the moclerns-it may be the rest of us, enriched by having known one more friend-it may be Cherry Valley, enriched by the possession of a mature and able son.

In Henry's case, the two of them more or less coincide, and with happy results. Four years, it is usually admitted, suffice to acquaint one with the traits of a man with whom he comes in daily contact. It needed far less to make us realize our good fortune in having Henry as a companion. Resourceful and calm, he met the intricacies of psychology and the lahyrinths of the impedi- ments with an assurance which the marks always justified. In his character there was no place for show and affectation. We are firmly convinced that the strong foundations of Henry's character will bear the weight of many responsibilities and he the cause of many triumphs.

To the uninitiated, consistency demands that a bold, obstreperous character should alight, but it is one in whom is realized the truth of the axiom that truth speaketh without noise of words. lilac is slow to pronounce judgment, but once he does, it is to be remarked that no dog gives vent to exuberant yowlings. For four years llac has daily wended his way to the College from the un- trekked fastness of Fisherville, and daily we have looked to his coming.

He was the happy possessor of an outstanding good nature entwined with simple and appreciative wit. Together with his modes- ty, these earned for him a place of respect in the minds of all his friends, who were not restricted to Seniors alone but included underclassmen and faculty alike. A philosophic trend of thought was ever manifested in Jllac, not overlooked in his pastiming remarks. Not too forgetful of the requisite relaxation, our Jack moved in all the social circles of the Commonwealth, when time afforded. He was always well laden with Park and Cedar exchanges. With zeal and eagerness Jack diligently and capably fulfilled his mission at Holy Cross, for conscientiousness was one of his most prominent charac- teristics. Not one will question Jackfr title to future success and if only half of his sweet dreams come true, no greater happiness and success can be found. .fllendel Club, 5, 4 flarjord Club, I, 2, 3, 4 Leag. of S.

Qu er f pd Bl f VENERANDO PAUL MCMANUS Brooklyn, N ew York The greatest dilliculty encountered in writing a resume of Itlacfr part in the history of '27 lies in the inability to treat of his numerous achievements and wide popularity adequately. His capabilities and willingness were fre- quently recognized as his participation on many committees and clubs in- dicate. As the gracious host of many a crowded Princetonian, V. Paul exhibited his genius for making every man at home and the partaker of a friendly at- mosphere that was reciprocated in the great popularity that he has enjoyed for the past four years. A propensity for visiting the famous hogs -that Hfinis operantisn of many a Saturday night permission-or the more distant confines of the Insurance City proved 17Iac'.r ability to stay with 'emu in the gentler phases of collegiate endeavor. Jlac has made an excellent comrade for both the vicissitudes and the good time of our stay on the Hill, and while we regret his loss as a classmate, we can still be happy in the knowledge that others will be finding an equally true friend and loyal companion. ftlgr.

The boy from Fall River has been an ardent artist with the hickory stick and the horsehide these past three years, and this year touched his labors with the wand of success.

Since the place of Frank'.r domicile is at somewhat of a distance, the times in which we have been able to enjoy his company have not been very long, but for so long as they were, there were few fellows in the class whose companionship was as enjoyable as his. In class Frank has always been single minded and conscientious in pursuit of the one great object, and has kept decidedly within the favor of the tem- peramental Muses. Absence making the heart grow fonder, we shall cherish all the more in future times, when Frank is the first citizen of Webster, or perhaps of Boston or New York, the memory of his friendship. .Vexaw Club, 4 League of Sacred Hearl, I, 2, 5, 4 B.

A D IOHN LEO MORRISON lvawlzua, A7661 H amptrlzlre In the microcosm that is college, we meet with many diversified ,types but few indeed are they whom nature equips with that rare combination of a quiet manner and a pleasing disposition. To associate with a man of such character is to know and appreciate Iohn, whom the past four years have revealed as that accomplished type of gentleman. While Iohn was known intimately to only a favored few, the class in general will remember him for his brilliance in the classroom. For him the books presented none of the insurmountable obstacles that most of us recall, but in his usual calm and tranquil manner he mastered them and received that recognition which only merit can secure. To those less fortunate Jack was never loath to offer assistance, whether it be in the mazes of philosophy and physics or in those material necessities of college life. In the world beyond Holy Cross there is need of the scholar as well as the all-round collegian, and realizing this we know that Iohn's success will be worthy and commendable and a credit to the Halls of Alma Mater.

The success of that enterprise from a financial point of View connotes very satisfactorily his superior business acumen, by reason of which he is at present an energetic member of the Patcher business staff. One can assert with moral certitucle that the red-headed Beau Brummel of '27 was tendered more dinner entertainments in the fair city of Worcester during his Senior year than many other members of the class re- ceived in all four. Fzzrina'.f pre-eminent accomplishment, prescinding from his curly hair, is his mastery of witticism, and this quality, coupled with his good nature places him in the category of the most popular in the class.

Of course, if one of the two must be sacrificed, the proper thing to give up, as you will all agree, is the studying, but Jack did not have to do that. As a matter of fact, he found a great deal of time for additional activities, parti- cularly by way of indulgence to a passion for reading. Olcey possesses a fine sense of humor and an excellent nature, a combination that accounts for the high esteem of good-fellowship accorded him in the four years that he has been with us. Olcey is noted among his friends for his remarkable ability in the gentle art of self-defense, an amateur master of ring craftsmanship, and naturally a boxing enthusiast of the first degree. After the fifteenth of Iune, Jack will set out into the world of business to attain a worthy eminence like that of his days at Holy Cross.

The result is that he knows many people, especially in the region of Vernon Hill, and many things, especially in the regions of Parnassus and peaks in Darien. l On many an afternoon we found Jack enfolded in the grasp of Morpheus, to whose help can be attributed no small portion of his success.

As a matter of fact, they have remained unseen to very few of his classmates, from which you may draw the conclusion that his circle of intimates is large. All the problems and difficulties which beset the rest of us, to the point almost of distraction, seemed to overlook Joe completely. Some would call it luck, but we who know him better are well aware of the real reason-his steady determination and ability to handle well the task in hand.

Jack transferred to Holy Cross in Sophomore, and his vivacity and wit immediately claimed attention. Always happy and genial, he seemed to find his greatest delight in routing gloom. Sullen spirits had no reason for continuance with Jack around. His humor and optimism often transformed the dullest of occasions into one of keen interest. Extremely complaisant and cordial, he became very popular among his many friends. But Jack was no less a scholar than a mixer. The Erga kai Haimeran had for him littleof their wonted Tartar perverseness. Outside of the dear delights of Philosophy, his chief weakness is debating-and more than a few times he had the pleasure of seeing an opponent routed.

Tom was a shy boy then, but the process of evolution, a derby and a few demerits practically remade him. With wonder in our eyes, we watched this youth from the Merrimac Valley come up from that awful blow which the knowledge of Whittier's inferiority to Shakespeare dealt him. Now completely recovered, he cultivates not only Shakespeare but even the little accredited moderns. 4 Perhaps what the class most appreciates in Tom, aside from his universally famous good nature, is his splendid ability as a leader. Due to this we elected him President of the Nexus Club, in which office his dry humor amused the assembly on more than one occasion. If scholastic accomplishment, social prominence and well-merited esteem are at all prophetic, Tom must achieve greatly in the years to come. Prem. of zvexua' Club, 4 Senior Council, 4 B.J.F.

St. Iames can but conjure memo- ries of the genial, scholarly Tom. Tom has been a very active member in class affairs, although the greater part of his activity has been centered in the functions of the non-residents. There he has been a very king of men, and his counsel was ever sought by both the great and the small. However, it must not be thought that the entirety of T0m'.r endeavor was localized on the Hill. It has been stated by competent and trustworthy wit- nesses that Tom had access to more parlors and easy chairs in Worcester and its environment than any other member of the class. This is not de Bde , but it is the current opinion of those who profess to know. Characteristically unassuming and modest, Tom has not made known his plans for the future, but we are certain that those qualities which won him success in College, and endeared him to all, will win for him in future years the success he so truly deserves.

P IOHN FRANCIS SULLIVAN 117 orcelrler, 17Ia.1'.raclzuJeHJ' From the valley down below Sul! came to our fold, and throughout our collegiate career he has captivated us with his inexhaustible supply of stories, ballads and what-not. Always a center of interest, Jack? time was severely taxed by his friends who sought entertainment listening to him croon a tune while strumming his inevitable Uke. His fame, however, was not entirely due to his musical acquirement, for he entered many other fields of endeavor where his persistent application was the keynote of perfection. Beneath the jovial, sunny surface of Sullfr personality is found the more serious trend of his character which displayed sincere, enthusiastic friendship. From the heights of laughter and joy to which you led us, we sense a tinge of sadness upon thoughts of parting while looking forward to our first reunion, Sully, and joy.

RAYMOND FRANCIS SULLIVAN Holyoke, JIa.rJaclzu.rell.r Ray came to us unheralded, but it was not long before he was recognized as an exceptional student-it was a poor month which did not bring a testi- monial or two. His nimble feet were trained to the same high degree of efficiency as his mind, and both these faculties were matched by his accom- plishments as a raconteur. Ray always possessed a fund of excellent stories which he was wont to deliver with consummate artistry. Nor were there many popular songs with which he was not acquainted. Ray is a prolific correspondent, and it is rumored that much of his mail bears an appreciable scent. None in tl1e class have prospects more bright than Ruy'.r in the field of medicine, in which we deem it safe to predict that his rare combination of brilliance and thoroughness will make him an eminent success.

By means of his little ukelele and the celebrated acts Iohn established himself as a unique member of that illustrious corridor, while his dissertations on the faults and failings of Worcester society immediately marked him as a man of discernment and sage observation. High-class entertainment and musical talents were not the only means by which this versatile youth relieved his mind of the abundance of originality and pep that lay dormant therein, as his work on the Tomahawk, in the Glee Club, and Dramatic Society or as manager of our Golf team readily testify. We conclude by prophesying that Holy Cross's loss will be the greater gain of professional life and of the outside world.

For 171 Ike possesses the knack of making and keeping friends. Perhaps it is his smile, perhaps his wit, more probably both. Our forebodings do not mar his outlook on life. He takes life as he finds it and admits that the longer he drinks from its inexhaustible cup the sweeter he finds the nectar. Dancing and bid Whist are his special hobbies, in fact, we hear that he is contemplating publishing a revised edition of Hoyle. Though, we are sorry that graduation means separation, we are consoled by the thought that .JIl'k8'J intuitive faculty for perceiving difficult solutions together with his optimistic outlook on life will carry him far on the road to fame, and thus reassured, we bid him bon voyage to a successful career.

His versatility is attested to by his accomplishments in the classroom, where his efforts have gained the same standing as his diamond and gridiron exploits. Always at the head of the class, it has been a source of wonderment how he managed to give so much time to social affairs and athletic duties. His willing- ness to help and his ever ready support have helped many of us in a moment of need. For these traits we shall always be thankful to him, and the reason for our most vivid memory will he his sterling qualities of sportsmanship and friendliness.

IAMES CHARLES WINN 117 oonfockef, Rlzofle Iwlalzaf With the hour of parting drawing nearer and nearer, it becomes doubly difficult to express our feelings regarding this debonair gentleman from Woon- socket. Attracted from the first by his affahility and kindliness, we were all anxious to be Jz'm'.r friends, and he was only too anxious to reciprocate, and for this we regret the clay of parting. But there is an undercurrent of pleased anticipation, well as we know his capabilities and past attainments. He has painstakingly secured the foundations of a structure which will take care of itself. Jimir chief luxuries are pinochle and oranges, in fact, as Gus may testify, they are his better half. His capacity for the sunkist fruit is amazing. We wish you a happy future, Jim, and only wish also, that we may go half as far ahead as you. As a fairily old saying has it, Time will tell.

In his Freshman year he proved himself worthy, by means of hard work, to be made the field-general of the Holy Cross football team. A sure hard tackler, a quick thinker, and an all-around leader, was Bill on the field. Many the game he won for his Alma-lVlater by correctly timing his play. He had an uncanny ability for sizing up the weak spots in the enemy's line, and the ability to prove, by his own superb ball-carrying, that the weak spots were there. A real good fellow-his popularity being proven by his infinite wealth of friends. In losing Bill, Holy Cross loses one of the best quarter-backs she ever had, If his ability on the gridiron is any indication of his worth in other lines- nothing but a tip-top place will be his attainment.

Here you behold the publishers of the next Purple Paiclzer-Wearers of the next order of caps and gowns, and the introducers of the next set of lecturers, which is to say, the Iuniors. It is no doubt trite and jejune to say that this or that class is outstanding in the school, since all the classes run pretty much the same, but 1928 may rightly lift its head, and claim a certain amount of distinction. Iuniors have carried on a really great part of the year's activities. Among the members of the football team, such stars as Sfzel Daly, Larry Lowery, Bob O'Connell, Tony Karpowich, Paul Kittredge, Gum Cervini, and .foe Miller proudly claim flmfy Doyle as their class president. Doherty, Savage, Lowery and Davidson represent the class along the baselines, and Tom Durkin, Tom Fitzpatrick and Jim Quinn on the traclc. Turning to the publications, we find William A. Kinney the leading fiction writer of the school, Iohn Feeney and Edward McGratty, also adorning humble subjects with their pens. Maurice McLaughlin is to conduct the destinies of the Tonzalzawk through another vigorous year. On the inter- collegiate debating teams, '28 has the unusually large representation of Mau- rice McLaughlin, Harold Field and Edward lWcEntee. Edward McGratty is the shining light among those who wear the sock and buslcin. The Musical Club contingent is headed by our international representative Tony Lang. The present volume of the Palclzer owes much to the artistic ability of Frank Reilly and Wilfred Lilly. The social abilities of the class will be vouched for by the Freshmen, who have eaten of the Iuniors' ice cream and listened to the foolishment of Iohn Iohnson, et al., with great profit and enjoyment. Q By all appearances, the class of '27 will be leaving the Purple Key, Loyola and the Watclinian in capable hands.

LARKIN What with Hcczcbar, Oeflfpum and the strenuous demands of the Board of Admissions, Jack Larkin's boys have been kept fairly busy since the dusty days of last September. Returning from New England, Philadelphia and points west, in the latterly days of the Harvest Month, the Sophs discovered that they were the most talked of class in the School by reason of the noteworthy manner in which they continued their acquaintance with Motlier Hecuba at the Sesqui-Cen- tennial. Iohn Mccrolian, Henry Tuttle, Edward O'Rourke and their asso- ciates trod the boards to the tune of Tex Rickard's hammers and to the im- mense gratification of the assembled connoisseurs. Instead of letting their success go to the cerebral regions, they set to work immediately, starting in with football, in which Drais, Dowling. Connors, Nlikelski and several others did noble work. Around the circumference of Jim Freel's diamond, Connolly, Illurphy and Buckley might be seen lim- bering up for future triumphs. Jack Barry was glad to call on Fons, Dobens, Harrell and Duggan to bolster up the nine. Connors was one of the shining bloncl boys for the basketball team. Dramatics, debating and literary work found able support from such men as O'Rourke, Tuttle, Dowling and Donoghue. Socially, the class proved itself an accomplished host to the Freshmen. With such feats as the Hockey championship in its cap, the Sophs have manifested their ability and willingness to meet anybody on his own ground.

Clark Hodgson,'27,,and found the association so congenial that they waited until the shades of Winter were lifting before electing Nicholas Cattie as permanent President. But that was about the longest waiting they did for anything. They started off in the Fall with the proverbial bang by gathering together a promising array of pigskin maulers and forming of them an un- usually strong Freshman team. The fact that this was the first year of the Freshman rule kept all the material from going to the Varsity. Joe Dougherty and Stewart Clancy were the two Alpha Centauri in a galaxy of stars. When baseball practice started, the Varsity nine found considerable opposi- tion from the Freshman outfit, which included on its roster the names of Dougherty, Descautels, Nekola, Evers, Shevlin, Berwanger and Fisher. The Purple found use for the offerings of Kenton Kilmer and Iohn lVlcDonald while up in Fenwick Hall, Francis X. Walsh and Ioseph Moynihan were making Dramatic History with their portrayals of Romans and Life in Cyrano . The names of Iohn O'Neill and Iohn Costello will be heard in future platform battles.

Griffin as Editor-in-Chief of the Purple, last Iune, was hailed as a promise ot' a glorious year for that classic among collegiate literary publications. The prediction was certainly more than verified. The new program of allowing the magazine to be run by the staff as a staff activity succeeded admirably-the prose and verse submitted being consistently plentiful, and of such a high order as to call for continuous comment and praise from our contemporaries. It will probably be a long time before the Purple again prints sonnets like W. T. Gfs, or essays like William Hare's and William Butler's. There are giants remaining, however, and '28 may well expect the Purple to remain on the heights. V -- - M -9- ' V rl I j Kung- L.'n1h1iCQx'l!,- !x-: H2711 5 ww I' ' F' . ',.:.

Hare Williani T. Griffin The Tomahawk, official undergraduate newspaper, now in the third year of its existence as an institution on the Hill prospered considerably under the leadership of Charles A. R. Connor, II, as Editor-in-Chief. The most drastic step in the paper's career, the change to a semi-weekly, was successfully made. This step considered quite venturesome when suggested by Connor, in the fall of 1926, who was at that time managing editor of the paper, has since proved . a great incentive to Holy Cross journalism.

The Senior Council, composed of leaders among the Seniors in extra-cur- ricular activities was commissioned by the Faculty as an intermediary body between Faculty and students, to place the wishes and opinions of each before the other, and to secure efliciency in the execution of many details concerning which the action of the entire class was not feasible. The great effort of the Council this year was to institute a drive by the students to secure the starting funds for the new Gymnasium, representing the Faculty in this regard. The drive was started but, as we go to Press, has as yet been carried on chiefly by the Alumni. 1- A H2771 ig 1 5551 Q QUTIWE9 'iTDatcbe1' -na nd- i s PURPLE KEY 1 ' , - 4 1 - .1 .ul 1 .An A 1.1, J 1 ll ... , , .

Con DOI' PURPLE KEY The Purple Key aims, worthily, and so far with great success, to furnish the comic relief in the ritual of the Mluses and the great god Brawn. On the opposite page you see a few flashes from its activities during the past year. The interval between the halves of the home football games have been the particular festival times of the Key, and no one who has ever witnessed its crazy and fantastical burlesques will forget them. For the benefit of the A.A.'s patrons, the Key opened the year by presenting its own peculiar con- ception of Gertrude Ederle swimming the English Channel, featuring a Kiddie Kar, several laundry basket fishing smacks, Poseidon as a traffic cop and an enormous frog. Later in the year they followed up this performance with the Dempsey-Tunney Fight, the Fathers and Sons football game ffea- turing Queen Mariel, and the great lllatador Exhibition. The Key also staged several rallies, and entertainments, always furnishing acts of aparticularly hilarious nature. :F 52793 .H ' A, V F Y 7 , -2 .

Griffin, was staged in Fenwick Hall on the evening of March 16, and was thoroughly enjoyed by a large audience of s'tudents, Faculty and guests.

They possess what is probably the most consistently efficient and active aca- demic organization in the College. Under the auspices of the Mendel Club, the most noted Nledicos of the New England district, and even a world- famous German biologist have appeared before the student body with ad- dresses of catholic interest. The prestige of the Mendel Club is something which was not easily gained, and worth a great deal to the men themselves and to the College.

The evening was spent reviewing the comedy, song and story furnished by the artists and wits of '27, and eating the ice cream furnished by all of '27. Hur- ley's Negro Spirituals were the grand sensation of the program. 7 -- -.. ,---e o Y ,.,- 1 ,4ll1I1I3 .-lHnsQh11'll--' Amt H2851 urvle QDatcher 'J N 1193- ,.. av 01353 5 2522.501-. . 64579 QA, Qs 1 ' l . if 5, Q K 1 Q- V W V FATHER'S DAY COMMITTEE Edward M.

C. game, combining the social evening with a spirit rally for the great game. Henry Healy prepared a full program, including a chicken dinner, cigars, a minstrel show, and Irving McDonald, '15. Dir. McDonald was decidedly the hit of the evening, with his dryly humorous account of a differ- ence of opinion between himself and Father Dinand in his student days. Brother McCarthy's delicious consomme may or may not account for the magnificent showing made by the team a few days later. it Q- I---Y -iv-nidgggpznp- I-nxxhx1Q ,,,,, H2873 ' : i. f Qufbll?

'27's Iunior Prom was a carefree, mildly hilarious, and altogether successful time for all. The ballroom was like a southern garden, and not too warm, Jack Schildkretfs Orchestra was in excellent form, and the Bancroft dining- room outdid itself in the matter of ginger ale and club sandwiches. Tim Murphy and his committee made an exceedingly efficient job of the arrange- ments, even to the number of taxicabs at the disposal of the Knight Owls. As the Tomahawk had it, even the girls enjoyed the party, with which conclusive argument, we set the Prom down as an unqualified success. x i af? --- ,--....

Shortly after the Chirstmas holidays, Harold Field and llflaurice McLaugl1- lin stood on the opposite side of the water pitcher from the debating team of Nlarquette University, and distinguished and defined their way to a 2-1 decision of the judges, defending the objective validity of the Democratic Ideal. On the evening following the return from the Easter vacation, Edward Mclfntee, Edward O'Rorke and Maurice McLaughlin accomplished the same mental feat over the road company of St. Viator's College on the ques- tion of Uniform Nlarriage and Divorce Laws. The final debate of the year is two days away as we, perforce, go to press. Yvilliam Butler, '27, Iames O'Brien, '27, and Williani T.

Bouviefs boys are concerned, the year has managed to include several joyous and highly successful larks, from standpoints musical and social. After nearly two months of preparation, they planted the banner in North Brookfield, and harmonized away a delightful evening in the Town Hall of that venerable hamlet. Returning after the Yuletide interim, they trundled bag and baggage to the sister cities of Concord and Manchester, New Hamp- shire. On two successive weeks later the troupe did Keene, New Hampshire and Winclienclon, Mass., both times to the keen delight of the local intelli- gentsia. Both Glee Club and Orchestra were by this time in perfect form, and the Autumn Sea , and Fortune Tellern were rousing the echoes and prolonged applause. Along about the middle of February, Springfield played host to the Clubs, and a hugely attended concert, featuring tuxedos and several new numbers was staged in the magnificent Auditorium. Clinton was next withla very special supper by the Parish, closely followed by an afternoon THE XYLOPHONE DUET D,ANNY REARDON, '28 V F -, V-,,..

At each of the affairs new songs and orchestral compositions were executed, and old ones dropped from the program. In a Monastery Garden, in particular enjoyed a huge success. For their Easter trip, the Clubs set up the xylophones and tympani in the Hall of the Columbus Council, Knights of Columbus, in Brooklyn, New York. Edward lVlcGratty, reader of the Clubs, the Quartette, Banjo Trio, et al., re- ceived the unqualified approval of the first nighters, as well as the Glee Club, with its well-known Bells of St. lWary's, and the Orchestra with the ever- popular Student Prince selections. Besides the regular concerts, members of the Musical Clubs were often called upon to give informal entertainments, the Quartette, in particular, being called on many occasions before the Alumni in banquet assembled. The VVorcester concert at the Bancroft on May 16 closed the year. All in all, the year has been a great success, and the memory of the many Anabases of the four great buses will be a lasting one for anyone who has set out in one of them in the afternoon, and dozed through a long ride back, in the wee sma' hours of the morning.

To look for the boys of the horn and drum, gaily attired in purple and white, to form down by the flagpole and swing down the field to the tune of Fight, Holy Cross has been just as natural as to look for the players themselves to come back for the second half. Between the quar- ters, they swung into a lighter strain and entertained the folks with the very latest. Following the team to Cambridge, Newark and Braves Field, the Band was about the steadiest cheering section that Billy and his mates had. Battle and martial music-a combination as old as time and as new as tomorrow. Best of luck to the Band!

Hebert, '27 The Dramatic Society's annual production, which has always been a shining star in the academic firmament of the Cross , became, this year, a sort of binary affair, being presented in Worcester at the end of February, and at the Boston Opera House in May. Among other things, it broke a tradition-the tradition of always and everywhere producing Shakespeareg and although the tradition itself is a notable thing, there can be no doubt about this breach of custom being a most successful experiment. By which is meant, in short Qas it appeared on the playbillj, Rostand's Delightful Comedy, Cyrano de Bergerac . Many plays were considered by Rev. W. E. Murphy, S. I., Moderator of the Society, before it was finally decided that Cyrano, which had recently received such remarkable success on the professional stage, would not only furnish a suitable vehicle for the talent of the college, but would also afford opportunities for some unusual publicity, by reason of never having been played by amateurs before. The translation was the first difficulty, but the .12 -ttTJ ,'1.-,- i , ,,..lg-1l7III ' '- 'i1ll'-' H5021 52 I l ple QDattl1 Qur ez- Moderator proved him- self equal to the occasion to writing a special one, superior in many respects to the classic translation of Brian Hooker. Working with this as l a basis, the cast was picked, strenuously re- hearsed, and sent before the populace. Two suc- cessful performances in Worcester and one triumph in Boston are enough to prove that the work was done to perfection. Edward lVlcGratty, in the title role, did not perform Cyrano-he was Cyranol heroic in conception, brilliant in execution, fascinating in his humor, gallantry and love-making. He attained in the closing scene, heights of true passion seldom seen in the theatre of today. He stands beside Taylor Breen and Walter Dempsey as one of the greatest tragedians the College has seen in a generation, or maybe two. Roxane, the leading feminine role, was capably handled by Frank X. Walsh, '50, whose grace and poise seemed to fill the stage. His diction was enjoyable, and easy to understand. Iohn F. Power, '28, as Christian de Neuvillete gave a finished performance. , He was handsome enough to win the love of any maid, and stupid enough to be the foil for the brilliant wit of Cyrano. William T. Griffin, '27, as Rageneau, the rotund, good natured baker who preferred poetry to pastry, was a sympathetic, win- ning character. DeGuiche was sibilantly portrayed by Edward A. O'Rorke. Other members of '27 taking part were Gerald F. Hurley, Sylvester Hartig, Robert L. Farrell, Maurice F. Fitzgerald and Arthur C. Lenaghan. Through the valiant efforts of W. A. Kinney, the Boston newspapers were never allowed to lose sight of the fact that Holy Cross was soon coming to town, and as a result, the Boston Qpera House was sold out, from refreshment stand to rafter, on the evening of May 11.

This was built specially for the performance of Euripedes' Hecuba, which the Freshmen presented in exactly the original form last Iune, and again in September in Worcester and at the Sesqui-Centennial exhibition in Philadelphia. It was a never-to-be-fon gotten spectacle, on that warm Iune afternoon, with the sentries pacing the turrets, and old Hecuba wailing over her dead son in the weird cadences of the Greek, and the chorus executing the movements of the Ocles, led by the sten- torian voice of the Coryphaeus. The entire production was coached by William T. Griffin. Many other Seniors helped arrange the costumes and the stage.

Early in the year the Players held their Second Annual One-Act Play Night, presenting five plays written and produced by students. The affair was such an unqualified success that when the next contest was announced, undergraduate interest in the work was keen. For this reason, the old club, which was of its nature small and restricted, had to give way to a larger organization, called the One-Act Play Club, of which we hope to hear more in the future.

Qurnle ipatcbe 111 Q MILLER STOPPED-HARVARD 1926 FOOTBALL The 1926 Holy Cross football team will long be remembered by Purple partisans as the team that thrilled them with well-earned victories early in the season, disappointed towards the end, when injuries and ineligibilities had made inroads on the first string material, and closed the season in a blaze of glory by fighting their way to an unexpected tie with Boston College. Head Coach Cleo O'Donnell and his assistants, Luke Kelly, who took care of the line, and Bunny Corcoran, a specialist in end play, began early to whip the team into shape, and on September 25th an unofficial practice game was scheduled with the Newport Torpedo Station eleven. In this game, undertaken chiefly to test the material that had come up from last year's Freshman eleven, the Crusaders demonstrated that the confidence placed in their ability was well-founded as they romped through the Sailor team almost at will, to triumph by 54-0 in eight-minute quarters. Billy Wise, appointed captain, led the Purple team, and many of the new men distinguished themselves-especially Shel Daly, Jlike Michelski, Sam Drais, and Eddie Dowling. A week later Ray Lynch brought the flaming red jerseys of St. Iohn's to Fitton Field for the first regular game of the season, and the Crusaders ex- ceeded all expectations by crushing the Brooklyn team under an avalanche of seven touchdowns for a total of 45 points, while the visitors could do nothing against the stellar work of a fast, hard-charging Purple line. Seventy-yard runs by Kittredge and Wise featured the game, while Daly gave promise of becoming the best line-plunger Holy Cross had seen in many a year. The charging of the line and the team work in general was remarkable for such an early date, and hopes ran high in anticipation of the annual clash- with Harvard, which was to take place the following Saturday. The morning of the Harvard game saw Holy Cross bear down on Cambridge en masse, where the assembled supporters of the Purple cheered the Purple to a glorious 19-14 victory over the Crimson. The Crusaders seemed unable T ' - 3 : --if at o V .,.....g.--lip' I I I ' ' ' 1 I I 111--ia.: H5291 A ' 1 TD r fgg! Qurn e a chez- LOWERY OFF TACKLE-HARVA RD to find themselves in the first half, and were helpless against the terrific plunging of Miller and the off-tackle sallies of French, Putnam, and Sayles. The Crimson crashed over for two touchdowns, added the extra points, and the half ended with the Purple on the short end of a 14-0 count. The second half told an entirely different story. The Crusaders came out after the fifteen-minute respite and played Harvard off her feet with a smashing attack that netted two touchdowns in the third period. These first two scores were featured by Daly's plunging and the remarkable passing of Blandy Ryan, who on one occasion hurled the pigskin fifty yards down the field to Shanahan for a touchdown. Shortly before this, Lowery had scored on a fifteen-yard pass from the same unerring Ryan, and when Sayles blocked Phelan's try for the point, the score stood 14-15 with only four minutes to play. It appeared as though Harvard was to eke out a one-point victory, and when an intercepted pass gave the Crimson the ball deep in Holy Cross terri- tory, the Purple's chances looked slim indeed. Then Harvard fumbled, and Billy Wise, standing on his own three-yard line, dared the forward pass that started the Crusaders on the most remarkable last-minute dash for victory that the Stadium has seen in many a year. Eight times the ball came buzzing from where Wise had squirmed his way free of Crimson tacklers.

The sixth completion placed the ball on Harvard's thirteen-yard line, where she was penalized twelve for roughness. Size! Daly catapulted through the Crimson line, and the victory was won. The game ended a few minutes later with the hall in Holy Cross's possession on Harvard's thirty-yard line. The Purple had intercepted a pass, and seemed on her way for a fourth touch- down. The following Saturday the Varsity crushed Rutgers hy a score of 21-0, in the first intercollegiate football game to he played in Newarlfs new city Stadium. Holy Cross proved superior to the Scarlet in every department of play, and was in danger only once, when Rutgers fumbled on the Purple five-yard line after her only prolonged march of the game. The Crusaders employed a running attack in the first half, attempting very few passes. Daly crashed through for the first score after Lowery's forty- yard end run, while Shanahan scored the second on a dash around the end. Blomiy Ryan now entered the game, and as a result of his forward passing, Holy Cross worked the hall deep into Rutgers territory only to lose it when a 'aa THE TOSS-RUTGERS .z ,, ,-F, a y i I il. 5 3 1111- -111111111113 A--: If33lj H Z Qurp e archer X P4 hd '+ A rip ,.. , GRIPP STOPPED-FORDHAM pass was grounded over the goal line. The second half was rather uninterest- ing, until Blondy intercepted a Rutgers pass and galloped to the Scarlet's forty-yard line, where the Purple started her march for the final score. Daly took the ball over on a pass from Ryan. The following week the Green Whirlwind of Western Nlaryland blew in to Worcester and descended on Fitton Field. Before the afternoon was long under way, our conquerors of the Crimson realized that they had a fight on their hands, and even after the season was over, Western Maryland was con- sidered by many critics to be the strongest opponent of the year. The score at the end of four hard-fought periods stood Holy Cross 21, Western Marylancl 14. The visitors were completely at sea during the first half, although they gave a slight indication of their capabilities towards the end of the second period. The Purple scored early when Finn blocked Neale's punt and Cervini recovered for Holy Cross on Maryland's twenty-yard line. Daly almost made the touchdown on a line play, smashing through for eighteen yards. Kittredge took the ball over on the next play. Shanahan took the kick-off and almost single-handed brought the ball in a number of rushes to the visitor's ten-yard line, from where Kittredge again scored. Not content with two, Kllfy later intercepted a pass in the shadow of his own goal posts to dash ninety yards for his third touchdown. In the second half the Wliirlxvincl, which so far had been more a Zephyr than anything else, assumed the proportions of a typhoon in a drive for two touchdowns that had the Crusaders bewildered amidst a maze of short screen passes. Holy Cross finally regained possession of the ball, and the game ended with the pig-skin on the Green's two-foot line, where they had held it for three downs in a most sensational goal line defense. The game was a real thriller and was noted for its hard play, a fact that left the Purple much the worse for wear when they resumed practice for the Dayton game. The Dayton Flyers arrived on the next Saturday to face a far different Crusader outfit than had started against Western Maryland the week before. 115523 WF' urvlv 'ffliatcher i p A l A DRAIS GOES OVER-FORDHAM Clary Ryan, Henry Shanahan, and Blondy Ryan had been declared ineligible for the remainder of the season, while Lowery and Connors were still on the hospital list. The result was a team largely made up of men who had not played together before, and who naturally lacked the co-ordination that comes from practice together. Dayton drew first blood by means of a flashy forward pass attack in the first period, but the valiant Crusaders rallied and finally won out, 20-7. Starting from their thirty-yard line early in the first quarter, the Flyers brought the ball to within two yards of the Purple goal line by means of three deceptive passes. The Holy Cross forwards hurled back three attempts to gain the two yards, but on the fourth down, another pass found a Dayton end waiting for it in the Purple end-zone. The Crusaders launched a sustained attack in the following period which ended when Kittredge took the ball over on an off-tackle play. Later in the same period Wise scored after a pass to Karpowich, and gains by Healey and Kittredge had placed the ball on the two- yard mark. Captain Billy scored again in the third quarter on an end run of twenty yards. Next on the docket was the Fordham Maroon. When the dust had cleared, Holy Cross was still in the select company of the undefeated, but the Ram had secured a 7-7 deadlock to take back to New York with them. The Purple's only score was more or less lucky, being a seventy-yard run by Sam Drais after he had intercepted a Fordham passg but we had our moment of hard luck also, when a fumble on the very goal line of 'the enemy spoiled the best scoring chance of the afternoon. There was plenty of action right from the start, when Graham's forty-yard return of a punt put Fordham in a scoring position. He elected to try a drop- kick which went wide of the mark. The Crusaders also wasted an opportunity after Graham's fumble of VVise's punt in the second period. Then came Drais' dash for a touchdown, made possible by Padafy Lynch's interference, and the half ended with the Purple in the lead.

Fordham's score came in the third period, started with a twenty-yard jaunt around the end by the ever-dangerous Graham. Holy Cross held for downs on her thirty-yard stripe, but Wise's kick was a flivver, going outside after traveling hut seven yards past the line of scrimmage. A pass to Leary and four smashes by Gripp carried the leather over, and Graham tied the score with a drop-kick. The Purple staged a sustained march in the last period, and mainly through the fine work of Billy Wise in passing and running, brought the hall to Ford- ham's two-yard line. Revenge for our humiliation of the year before seemed but a matter of time. The huddle called for a smash at the lineg the hall snapped, Shel Daly catapulted through a tangled heap of Purple and Nlaroon, but the hall also did some catapulting, and finally lodged in the arms of Zev Graham for a touchhack. The crippled Crusaders had failed to capture one of the object games of the year, but all honor is due them for their stand against a team that had scented an unexpected victory and was playing an inspired game, FLOWERS FOR PAUL-B.

The Cardinals of Catholic University failed to hold a six-point advantage a week later, and were trounced by the Purple, 14-6. With three long passes and a couple of line plays, C. U. scored a touchdown before five minutes of play were up, but the Crusader's soon found themselves, and prevented any further scoring. Daly crashed through for a touchdown in the second period after a twenty- yard run by Wise and a pass to Karpowich had placed the leather in position for the score. Twice the Purple marched the length of the field to no avail in the second half hut, nothing daunted, Bifly Wise organized another trip late in the fourth period, which resulted in a touchdown when he went around the end from the four-yard line. On the following week, Boston University afforded one of the most sur- prising upsets of the Eastern grid season when the Terriers toppled the Purple from her place among the mighty by a 5-0 score. In the second period Herbert, the Terrier quarterback, lifted a field goal from the twenty-eight yard line that spelled Holy Cross's first defeat on Fitton Field in five years. B. U. finished the half with a three point lead at the expense of a second and third string Crusader team and doggedly clung to their advantage during the last two periods, though Cleo rushed all the available regulars into the fray. DRAIS OFF TACKLE-B. C. ' - - e v E555 J u ? pa't 9 1 . pa U sc Three times in the last quarter did the Purple get started on her march to victory, but the Boston crew were not to be denied, and each time succeeded in stopping the Holy Cross offensive before it got well into B. U. territory. At last came the objective of objectives, the annual tilt with the Eagles of Boston College. Rated as the under-dog, conceded but a scant chance of stopping the famed attack of the undefeated Maroon and Gold, the gallant Crusaders decisively outplayed their rivals in one of the most spectacular and colorful contests of a long and brilliant series. The score-book shows a 0-0 tie, but the Purple's three scoring chances, lost when field goals failed, and her evident superiority in every department but the punting, stamped the game as a moral victory for Holy Cross-if it is a fact that moral victories do exist. No one man can be singled out as the hero of the 1926 B. C. game. The Purple's representatives were machine-like in their team work, and only machine-like team work could have smeared the Eagle's famous end sweep and spilled their other plays for losses the way Holy Cross did. Shel Daly was the big gun of the Holy Cross oltense and ripped great holes in the B. C. line whenever he got an opening. Billy Wise's generalship was as flawless as ever, and his punts, while not equalling Cronin's mighty boots, were well- placed and got good distance. But the outstanding feature was the team, and to the team as a whole must the glory go. HEALY HITS THE LINE-B.

Two weeks later the intielders and outtielders reported in the cage, and the work of choosing the successors of Cote, YValsh, Niorrissey, Freeman, and lVlclVlahon was begun. The new Freshman rules failed to cause any rejoicing, coming, as it did, at a time when an almost entirely new team had to be built. There were candidates in plenty for all the vacant positions, and it was not until the long, hard drudgery ofthe cage was ended and Fitton Field once more resounded to the crack of bat and ball, that the situation began to clear up. Dick Harrell, who saw service last year at second, was shifted to Cote's old position at short, while Billy Wise of football fame was seen holding down the keystone sack. Nlaurice lVlcNaboe and Filler Cahill were still waging a hot battle for third, and Connie Hurley and Laffy Lowery seemed to have the edge on their rivals for left and right fields, respectively. XVith the outcome still in doubt, the Crusaders en- trained on April 7th for Richmond and the annual Southern trip. In the party were Capt. .foe NlcEntee, Billy Nvisc, Dick Harrell, Maurice McNaboe, and Filler Cahill, infieldersg Frank Savage, Con Hurley, and Larry Lowery, outtieldersg Jim Davidson, fl! F ons, Lalvjy Duggan, Ed Carrington, Ray Dobens, and Don. Healy, pitchersg Ed Doherty, fll XVhalen, and Dick Phelan, catchers, Fr. Fox, moderator, and Courtney McGroz1rty, manager. Two days later the season was officially opened as Ray Dobens let Randolph-Macon down with four hits and as many runs, while his mates were pounding the offerings of two pitchers for nineteen hits and twenty-one counters. The newest Barry machine gave promise of a successful season, banging the ball to all corners of the lot, and playing almost flawlessly afield. The game was sewed up early by Holy Cross's four runs in the first inning, and six in f -- .---- 4 v ' ,au I 3 .H': 1 1 - -v-1111.1 Q QW!-1 ARE f541j li A. ,V 1 15? Qurnle a chez' .5 S B - ' 1.

Against William and Nlary in the next encounter, the Purple failed to show the same brand of clouting that had characterized the Randolph game. Though outhit, seven to five, Holy Cross counted heavily on the nine errors that were committed by the Green and Gold nine and won the game, six to one. Big Jim Davidson kept the enemy hits well scattered, and was at no time in serious danger. The 12-1 victory over C. U. was featured by a return ofthe team's batting eyes. Every man in the line-up got at least one bingle, while Savage and Doherty clouted home runs. Fons held the Cardinals to three hits, their only run in the eighth inning being due to a walk, a hit batter, and a single. A total of sixteen safe hits came oft' the hard-swinging bats of the men of Barry. Georgetown were the victims of the Crusaders' fourth consecutive victory. Davidson was in rare form, allowing only two hits up to the ninth, when the Blue and Gray staged a belated rally that netted them their only four runs of the game. The Purple got to Burch for twelve hits and six runs. By this time, Cahill seemed to have established a definite edge over McNa- boe, and was regularly holding down the hot corner. Dobens had replaced Lowery in right field, and Hurley was still cavorting in left. K RED MCNABOE BILLY Wise A in I 1 -,, :'Z L'-'i'ixi 1Q l,-, x 55421 QUE - 024 R fear, L , , sl!! ' DoN Hmm' ED CARR1NoroN On April 19th, the Crusaders came home and played host to Dartmouth in the annual Patriot's Day tilt. Fons duplicated his performance against C. U. by only allowing three hits, and went a little bit further when he challred up the first shut-out of the year. Though con- necting for only seven hits, the Purple came through when the bingles were needed, and accounted for three runs. Vermont came down to Worcester on the following Saturday and was treated to a coat of whitewash to the tune of 9-O. Davidson had another big day, holding the Mountaineers well in check at all times, and allowing but two hits. The Crusaders were not especially potent with the willow, as they gathered only seven safe bingles off the combined offerings of two green pitchers. A double squeeze and four Vermont errors helped the score along considerably. Holy Cross was by this time the only undefeated team in the East, and seemed to be well on her way to championship honors. V,,,...cr ,,, v r I lf.: 'L .

P a ' Qu D19 Qpatfh The Princeton game, scheduled tbr April 27th, was called otf on account of rain, and three days later, the Purple went down to her initial defeat at the hands of Brown, 4-1. The game marked the resumption of baseball relations with Brown after a lapse of eight years. Fons, though allowing but six hits in the eight innings that he twirled, was the victim of two timely triples by Gurney. Billing's bewildering slants had the Crusader battery spiked, and Holy Cross was able to register only three times in the hit column. The lone run came when Cahill doubled, advanced to third on a tielder's choice, and scored on NlcEntee's sacrifice fly. David- son pitched the ninth inning and allowed one hit. The Villanova game on the following YVednesday, found the Crusaders back in winning form again, and they pasted the offerings of Hensil and Hanzik for a 7-2 victory. Once again Iim Davidson proved his worth by letting the visitors clown with three hits, a triple in the ninth after two men had gained the bags by means of a walk and an error acconting for the Maizi Liner's two tallies. In the second and third innings, the Purple drove Hensil from the mound by piling up seven clean hits for as many runs. In the next game, the Maroon of Fordham, which has been proving a stumbling block for the Purple ever since last Fall, turned the tables, crossed the dope, and messed things up in general by departing from YVorcester with an S-1 victory stowed in their bat bag. Costly errors by the varsity paved the way for the worst defeat that a Holy Cross team has suffered in many a year. Fons was replaced by Davidson in the fourth after he had walked tour batters. Big lim, coming in cold, and with the bases loaded, was found for a triple by Iohnny Xvhite. and three more runs came in.

E. I. C. A. A. hill and dale meeting. In the first encounter, that with Harvard, Holy Cross was defeated by the score of 21-54. The second resulted in a win over B. U. to the tune of 18-57, while the third saw a perfect score rolled up against the Purple when M. I. T. triumphed by 15-50. Plz!! McNamara captained the team for his second successive year. Other members of the team were Fitzpatrick, Gallant, Beane, Murplly, Birdsall, Buckley, Connolly, Kennedy, and Nolan. After the hill and dale season was finished, and the hoard track appeared on Freshman field, Coach Bart Sullivan started to work on the mile relay team, composed of Burns, Maher, Durkin, and Higgins. On Ianuary 22d, the quarter-milers ran their first race, and easily defeated Harvard at the K. of C. games in Boston. At the B. A. A. games, two weeks later, B. C. went down to defeat at the hands of the Crusaders. Earl McDonald forsook his hurclling for the evening, and ran anchor in place of Frank Burns, who was indisposed. The next week saw the Crusader's initial defeat, when Georgetown finished in front by inches. Frank Burns made a wonderful last minute sprint, but could not pass Burgess. Nothing daunted, the relay team traveled up to Portland and defeated New Hampshire State in the best 1560 time of the i F -- U,--f 1 a 'A ll A' g npr-- ---xxuxgg l,,15-Ame H5471 s o ' le iDatcb img! Qurv er pd id evening, gaining the third leg on the cup. The time of5 minutes, 636 seconds established a new track record. At the indoor Intercollegiate the Purple failed to successfully defend their mile relay title. After winning the first heat over Yale and Georgetown, the varsity fell victims to the speedy Syracuse quartet, and Georgetown finished second by dint of Burgess' last minute sprint that carried him past the tiring Burns. The next and last appearance of the relay team, at the Penn Relay Carnival, April 50th, saw the Orange of Syracuse again triumph over the Purple. Phil Hurley had replaced Higgins when the team got outdoors, and ran in third position at Franklin Field. The track was a mess of mud and water after an all night-rain, a fact that slowed down what might have been record time to 52352. Burns turned in a wonderful performance in almost overhauling Cooke, but the Syracuse anchor had got away to a big enough lead to keep him in front. In the first dual meet of the season, the varsity triumphed over Rhode Island State College by a score of 94-41, winning all but three events, and establishing seven new track records.

Playing the hardest schedule which has been at- tempted in the last five seasons, the Varsity five emerged with a record of seven victories and six defeats. Jack Reilly, as right forward, was the outstanding member of the team and finished with a total of 151 points to his credit. Zeke Connors took second place with 85, and Captain Paul Kittredge was third with 54. The unexpected loss of Adrian Burke and Henry JACK Rmzn Shanahan of last year's outfit left two gaping holes to be filled. Burke's guard position was capably filled by Glu Cervini and She! Daly, while dmby Brady played his usual heady game at the other back court position. Kit- tredge took care of the jumping, and Reilly, Connors, and lWorris alternated as forwards. The lack of a suitable court for practice proved quite a handicap, and the first half of the season found the Crusaders lacking somewhat in team Work and finished passing ability. Toward the close, however, they hit their stride, and proved their mettle by outscoring Harvard, B. U., Conn. Aggies, and Brown, with only a defeat at the hands of Fordham to mar the run of victories. The schedule: H. C.-55, Vermont-29 H. C.-15, Yale-28 H. C.-45, Norxvich-26 H. C.-29, Fordham-55 H.

It IS one of the most formidable schedules played by a Holy Cross tennis team in several years. The team this year is captained by Daniel E. Reardon, '28. The. Purple tennis team opened the season at Amherst. The Sabrina racqueteers easily vanqiushed the Purple 7 to 2. The match was played for the most part in a drizzling rain- ilzornq. Phelan and Kelly playing Nos. 1 and 2 scored the only victories garnered by the urp e. In the second match of the season Tufts College was entertained on the home courts and overwhelmmgly defeated by the score of 5 to 1. The onl ' Purple team to lose its match was the first doubles combination, composed of Captain Reardyon and Ed Scully. They lost after a hard three set struggle. The following day the team lost a close match to Springfield College by the score of 4 to 2. The singles matches were divided, Captain Dan Reardon and Ball Hill, a Sophomore, winning tor the Purple. The superiority of the Springfield team in the doubles was the margin of victory for the visiting team. , The schedule for the remainder of the season follows: May 12 lVliddlebury College Home 14 Boston University Home 17 Mass.

Fitzgerald, and Dan Cohalen, the prospects for a successful season were none too bright. However the qualifying round uncovered three very sound golfers, in the persons of Sin' Hatch, Harry Franzoni, and Tom Dolan, who were capable of filling the vacancies satisfactorily. This trio, coupled with Captain O'Brien, Jack Nlurphy, Neal Fitz- gerald, and Frank Lee shapes up well and gives promise of ranking with the foremost teams in the East. At the present writing, only two inter-collegiate matches have been played: yet the scoring of the 1927 team indicates that it is the most formidable aggregation that has ever represented Holy Cross in this particular sport. Captain O'Brien is one of the ablest golfers in collegiate ranks, playing Number One position for the past three seasons, and accounting for many points on the right side of the ledger. It might be added that it was largely through his efforts that Golf has been raised to the dignity of a minor sport at the college. The best schedule this sport has enjoyed since its initiation on the Hill, two years ago, was arranged by Nlanager Iohn P. YValsh. It includes matches with all the leading colleges in the East, and a good season is expected.

HENRY HEALEY Bn.1.'f Wise NICK COLASANTO Foolball Foolbail-Bn.1'zl1all Foolbnll Henry Healey, the boy from Commerce, has been a football man for the last four years, and a regular for the last two, playing end and half back. His play against the Eagles last fall was sensational. Billy Wise is famous for his generalship and his play in the backfield and on second base. Nick Colasanto has labored in Jim Friel's nether vineyard for four sea- sons, always placing the team before himself, and making himself immensely popular thereby. Pal Norton, sturdy linesman and second captain for '27, always looked to the enemy about twice as big as he is. Pal Lynch was the smallest, and in many respects the most able man ofthe Football team. Jack Finn was a giant on offense and defense. l KZPATN NORTON PAT LYNCH UCF FINN Foolball FUOMHN I'U0H N i f c - To V , X -ill? I I I H ' ' : 17gk-.- -L - i xllmii'-2 AI:ooS:I Qmvpw cp rebels .

W CHARLIE FINNIGAN ED SULLIVAN IAwN BUCKLEY TIM MURPHY HENRY KIRKENDALL THE CHEER LEADERS The boys pictured above have been awarded, during the past season, the pleasant task of helping to furnish the comic relief at the Herculean contests on Fitton Field-having full charge of the proceedings in the frequent absence of the Purple Key. No job could be more congenial to the buoyant natures of Ed, Clzarlfe, Hell, Jawn and Tim, and they have gone about it with the enthusiasm of those who love their 'art. Their success will be attested by the thousands who have witnessed their tail-spins and verbal contortions on the greensward of the fifty-yard and first base lines. No small measure of those famous last minute rallies for which the boys in Purple are so well known is due to the cheer and song leaders for their constant and impassioned appeals to the four winds and to the cheering section to rally 'round the flag. It will be a long time before we can expect to see a cheer leader rolling around and turning cartwheels with the careless abandon of Jawn Buckley, or sing a song led by the deep, grand opera basso of Charlie Finnigan.

Gifted with more than ordinary financial and executive ability and an infinite store of patience, they have ably assisted Paul lVlcAvoy in arranging the feats of brain and brawn which take place along the right bank of the Blackstone. Such nerve-wrecking problems as conciliating tem- peramental athletes, apportioning shoes with the proper number of spikes and keeping the shelt well stocked with Sloan's linament are everyday matters to the managers. On the side, they must also be accomplished hosts, and never make remarks about the table manners of visiting teams. They must also conciliate the moguls of the A.A., and see that the first baseman, the right guard and the singles champion are in bed by nine o'clock.

DEDICATION You wouldn't believe it, but Joe Cross Patch Cphoto abovel has been doing a bit of deep cogitating lately. You see, it happened this way. For his first' birthday present, we decided to let Jac dedicate this first number of the Cross Patch himself. It wasn't an easy job, either, by any means, for some people had the queerest notions about whom the Cross Patch should be dedicated to, and they insisted on pestering Joe with their suggestions. Someone wanted it dedicated to the A.A., but Joelr rational nature revolted at the thought. A person with a sense of humor thought of the South Worcestei' trolley car, with the possible alternative of Hickey's. There were some other funny ones, to wit: The VVhoops Annie Sisters frejected unanimouslyj, The League of Nations, the New Library Crejected for one obvious reasonj, Iohn Gully, fl! and his canteen gang, the Autophonic, and the Person Who Rings the Tower Bell. In order to show malice toward none and impartiality to all, however, Joe felt that he couldn't give it to one, without hurting the others' feelings, and decided to compromise by dedicating it to himself in recognition of his unstinted efforts, his lofty idealism, and his continual encouragement and inspiration in behalf of ye Cross Patch.

He will graduate Usumma cum difficultateu and Summa cum deceptionen rolled into one. Take it from those who roomed with him or near him, 135799 is in a class with the trouble-makers who invented collapsible drinking cups, cold showers, and hard collars. In his infamous career on Nlount St. Iames, he bummed more quarters, twice as much tooth- paste, and stole three times as much soap, as any other four men in the class. He has the disposition and all the good nature of an English bull-clog on a hot Fourth of Iuly. He is so tight that he feeds his cat, at home, salted peanuts so that it will drink water instead of milk. He is so mean he presented his grand- mother with a football on her ninetieth birthday. It would take the iniagina- tion of Shakespeare even to conceive of this sap making himself a success in life, unless he takes up panhandling. He prefers R0blil1.if0I1 Cruwoe cigarettes Ccastawaysj, but your brand is his brand. He does not know how he managed to slide by for four years, nor does any one else know, but with an old horse- shoe, a rabbit's paw, and a good pair of eyes, he is still making an attempt. 155799 will probably be blessed with an easy thesis in the final orals, and with all the grace of the bird they call the ox, walk in triumph down Linden Lane on Iune fifteenth, with an imitation sheepskin under his arm, amid cat-calls and sighs of relief from his suffering classmates. 55673 Y I ' 111 3: an + p WVR' ai: -Q ' C-'5- 4 Q - 1 Q 2: 77' -- I f ll v 1 ,, ,, , v Y .A 3,5-1 -Y -uiili H1 I V-1 Lx I 1 1 I lil' 55683 5 I ' - . .

The empty seats were once occupied by members who fulfilled the pact of the organization and committed intellectual suicide. Being determined to keep up-to-date, and preserve the real collegiate atmosphere, these hopefuls examined the possibilities of the intellectual life, and found it all empty, so they decided to end it all, and give up the mental ghost. The men you see here haven't -given up the ghost yet, but by all appearances, they will soon. S-.A --:in-M THE DEUCES WILD CLUB This infamous organization is a social monopoly which exists by favor of its own legislation, and has become an evil: Economically, by boosting the ante and reducing the pots 5 Politically, hy corrupting the ludiciary of Top Loyola- Frank Tuoheyg and Ethically, by concentrating all the wealth in the hands of a few, and corrupting the morals of its victims. So far as we can see, the only remedy for this state of affairs is Communism-absolute control hy the pro- letariat, whom it has outraged and robbed. V V 1.

He has so many sweaters that he doesn't know which one to wear, so he appears in his prized Adirondack smoking jacket, in which he won the Annual Yid baiting Contest at Schroon Lake in 1925. J0c'.r famous feat whereby he won his letter in Iunior will long be remembered for so we are toldj in the annals of Holv Cross sport. It was in the third stanza of a bitterl fought YVater Polo con- test with Iiloardom, and both teams were well nigh exhausted. Obtaining possession of the ball on the thirty inch-line, Jac used his famous nimble fingers and undid the lacing, whereat he inserted the tube in his oral open- ing, and pulled a mighty pull, there- by deflating the ball until it could not be noticed, and at the same time filling his lungs with enough air to enable him to swim around under- water indefinitely. Sinking to the bottom, Joe circurnnatated the pool nine times 5 came up and reversed the process, thereby 'winning the game, and breaking the underwater record for the Worcester Y. 171. C. 11. '- , gf 2. Qyrfl Axle Rod Crimm, 4th, is dangerous in the clinches, a fast man in the stands, and a terror on the open road. His trick whereby he won the foot- ball game with Fourstone College and his letter was such a sure thing that it was destroying the morale of oppos- ing teams, and the officials had to outlaw it. In one of the tense mo- ments of the game, Cfyrc'l'.r better half grabbed a forward and ran forty yards, being pulled down on the six yard line. On the next play, with the stands howl- ing for Crimm, Cyril lined his men up, the quarter back behind the center, the full behind the uarter, the better half behind the fuiil, and himself in the rear. At the signal the center looped the s heroid deftly into Cfy1'il'.r hands. xvitql a hop, skip and jump, Cyril alighted on the bacli of the man in front of him, from there to the back of the full back, and so on indefi- nitely, until he reached the center, from whose shoulders he took a mighty leap, upward and forward, and cleared the goal post, thus scoring a touch-down and a field goal on one play. No one but Qyrll could have done this.

This being the case, it was only fitting and proper that we should allow him the privilege of going out to vote. Joe went out equipped with 212 ballots, and returned a few days later to let us look over his choices. Here they are: To transpose our friend Bill Shakespeare, To do or not to do eJoe found Bill Griffin leading the to do section, as practically the unanimous choice for done nzo.rlfor Holy Cro.f.r. We've heard of many nip and tuck races, but this was the first time we ever had a N ick and Hen. race. This contest, for mo.ri popular, was a marvel, with Henry Healey just beating .Nick Colasanto to the tape. Jack NValsh is the mow! lzamlxonze, with Neal Fitzgeraldla close second. The williewl is lllike Flynn, who nosed out Derby Iohn Byrne, taking advantage of his training at the University of Peabody. The vote for ber! .rpeaker and l2c.rl wrifer went to Bill Butler, who won out from Bob Dwyer in the first and Bill Hare in the second. Bill also received a plurality in the widely scattered vote for mow! likely lo Jiicceed. The -loudest Hoiahl has been unanimously bestowed on Bill Wise, as ben' alhlelc. Another footballer, Pol Lynch, was chosen mo.rl nzoa'e.fl, with the fastest man on the Hill, Frank Burns, just at his heels. Socialy lzouna' and l1c.rl a'1'c.f.rezl-Erl O'Brien winning from fll Casey in the former, and a reversed order in the latter. The family of Grillin walked away with the honors for nzo.rll1rillio1zl, with Bill first and Ea' second. Bill Griffin is also our lJe.v'l Jludclzl, so Joe says, and Jim Moynihan is the cla.r.r grincl, although closely pressed for the honor by Ray Sullivan and .Bolz Farrell. Before and offer were best exemplified by Courtney NlcGroarty, our genial baseball manager, and Jaton Buckley, Coizrl being able to disappear merely by turning sideways, while Buck can hardly walk through the double doors of the Refectory. The one and only Bn.r,r0 Charlie Finnigan is l1e.rl mixer Cexact meaning ofthe term doubtfull. CLlf8Jf GCOFgC Horan finally had to yield the honors to Maurice Fitzgerald. Bail-nalzzrea'-after standing three and seven-eighths years of abuse for his Varsity Arm, Don Healy was given this one as a consolation prize, Babe Hathaway nearly had it, but voted for Don. Bw! line- the one Adrian Paul Victor, real estate mar- vel, Jac McEntee trailing by inches. Joe made up for this by squeezing out a victory over zlrl Kimball for bw! lui.rine.r.r man, chiefly by his feat of persuading fll to give him three cup cakes for a nickle. Lozic.rl- need we say it? Charlie Carr by a landslide, with a few votes for Activity Jim Maher. George Iohnson was conceded to be the greatest technician in manipulating the cuisine of the Hotel McCarthy, but with Carr and Gibson hotly contesting his position. Thus readeth Joc'.r Declaration of Pref- erences. A few of his answers we have thought it wiser not to publish, but in the main, there they are, as they say, for better or worse. - 1 i L , e Y , ,X .all -'I . 1 1 1 3 7- L- 'f I H I I I 1 'll' A'-2 H5721 I Q mb?

We wonder how many girls received this letter from Holy Cross? THAT LETTER Holy Cross College Agnes Mabel Our Dear Dolly Lillums Mae There are times in the life of every college student when his true school spirit will be to him a source of many tears, forcing him as it does, to do for the sake of his college, and fellow stu- dents, many things from which his timid soul would naturally shrink. The present occasion is one of these. After weeks of sorrowful observation we feel called upon to plead the case of our dear friend , , with the evident cause of his indisposition. Now please understand that we have no objection to a young man's being in love. NVe have been in love ourselves, often. 1fl-i- had an ordinary case there would be no sense in bothering about it. His symptoms, however, are anything but ordinary. The boy eats nothing-nothing whatsoever. This might be expected. But what are we to think when we watch him turn away from the em ty mailbox with a tear in his eye, and when we hear his slow ste along the corridor at miciinight? And then, when a yellow envelope does arrive we see the blissful expression that steals over his face as he reads it, lingering upon every word, and the dreamy softness of his eyes, which seem to say, flow will I live Lmlzl flu: Vl1CLlfl.0Il7H Now you will admit that this state of affairs must not be allowed to go on. 1Ve beg you, therefore, to remind li- that, although his loyalty to you is something fine and noble, he still owes a duty to himself, and to his future life. It is with a deep sense of our own unworthiness, and yet with a complete confidence in the wisdom of any girl whom -ll would choose for his own that we sign ourselves The Faculty of Middle Loyola, SOCKEN GARTER 11 A.M., P.M.

I've given you the foremost chance, So you may freely make advance Your heart and hand, I make no jest And hope you'll grant my fond request And send me back without delay Your answer saying Yes or Nay But if your heart does not design, THE 1927 My dear and most beloved Miss, Your letter tasted like a kiss, Honeyed words and candied breath. But you offer worse than death. You say Be mine or answer Nay , But know you, that I've chased away Many a siren like yourself, Many a charming little elf. And I'm not like to weaken now, Though you had Minerva's brow, Form of Venus, face as bright As ever gave the gods delight. Tho' Cupid shoots his darts, my dear 'Tis never at himself I fear. And if you would the reason know And asked this little god, why so? He'd answer you with graceful doff, My dear, I know when I'm well off My girl, I like you well enough And fear I'm just a bit too rough, To greet you so, I could reduce My pride, but this excuse Withholds meg for I couldn't wed, My heart is weaker than my head. And if my heart said Say, I do, My mind would say She's vamping you. 1927 - - In wedlock hands to join in mine Then you must Leap Year Lawn obey And down to me five dollars pay. Besides, kind sir, a handsome dress, I ask no more, I take no less. Now, you may think this letter funny, But I must have a man or money. So now, kind sir, send your reply, Let me be yours until I die. Now if you take this for a joke, Go hang yourself with a piece of rope. ANSWER I seem to think you've sent Affection in your sweetness 5 lent A rhythm to your cogitation, Given voice to affectation, And a letter smooth as honey, To glean me of my old man's money, Gr a pretty dress or two, Here's my fond reply to you. I deem most Women need advice, To Wit, when I-Ielen married twice, Great Hector told her 'twasn't nice.. When pretty Eve in Paradise Feasted on forbidden food, Adam told her she was crude. When Cleopatra vamped her Marc, Like any novice on a lark, Augustus told her to her face, She was slow at any pace. When Dido showed she had a crush, For him, Eneas, did he blush And stammer- Yes'? He said Not e'en a word, but swiftly fled. And all through history we may find Examples of a self-same kind. In sooth, that women try, To catch the ear of man and not his eve 3 1 11111111 1111111- F 5, 'f Y' n .--- 11' '- 55783 9 ld f - Quvnlg Qpatthel, 411 'V - , ' --. ff y ,....L-2-41:7 1-1 I I I' ' ' ' ' 'A ' 1 I I 1 igfs-. ..: H5791 Hi' p d . 1 V.,. And so lost both, whereas they might By looks quite keen and mouth shut tight, Have scorned the help of Cupid's darts, And won the object of their hearts. Now for my answer that you ask, To give it is a mighty task But I'11 be strong, and crave Your pardon on an erring knave IfI offend. I'l1 not say Nay For that would mean I'd have to pay The fine imposed. I'1l not say Yes' For many reasons you can guess. And now, my dear, you're up a tree. If you yourself should come to me And claim my hand, I'd proffer this: Other man than me, I'd carry Your missile to a court and sue For breach of promise, where would you Get evidence on me? Oh, do Be sensible and understand I could be mean and brand A stigma on your name and bring Disgraceg nor all the court could move it And more than else would sting This fact: your letters prove it. Now I'l1 forgive and make amends For all the grief this letter sends And I'l1 be pleased to call you dandy, For a little box of candy, Fudge or 'scotch or anything will do I don't accept your offer, Miss, Ha ha, I've caught the 'gimme game If you should dare to marry from you. P - A STUDENTS EVENING ,It is hard to say, even at this late date, just what impelled my roommate and myself to take that desperate step one evening and miss the picture show in town which nearly all had gone to see. Perhaps it was inspiration, but as I recall, we were broke. Anyway we decided to spend the evening in study. f This was decided at seven and at eight we left a card game to carry out our resolution. Of course we must obtain cigarettes first. So at eight-thirty we returned to Loyola Hall full of ambition. Nothing like comfort in which to study. So shoes, coats and other articles of apparel were .shed to insure comfort. At nine we smoked our last cigarette before starting. 9lI0-The discussion on Freshmen rules was started. It is highly imperative for upper class- men to forget their own worries and to do all in their power to bring the Freshmen through in the 'best possible manner. For it is the Freshmen who are likely to waste their evenings, and let ftheir marks go, but not the upper-class men. r 9.50-Recess called for another cigarette. It is necessary when one is working hard to relax -at least twice in an hour for about five minutes to prevent the dullness that comes from too much application to the books. 9.40-Short effort made to clean up the room. An untidy room makes it much more difficult to study. 10.00-A slight discussion on the respective values of colored and white shirts. One cannot be too careful in this era of social obligations. 10.50-lust time to get a bite to eat before the doors are locked. Care must be taken to prevent undernourishment, when studying in the evenings. -11.00-A short visit to the gentlemen across the hall and calculations as to how many courses :may be cut the next day without incurring the wrath ofthe faculty. 11.50-The rest of the hall joins in the study session. The evils of the present day college administrations are discussed 'from all angles. Various plans for correction are submitted for approval. I 1500-Bed. Certainly feels good after a long night's study. . 9.00 a. nz. Yespwe stayed late last night :and studied.

Homer 17IcG'lLunpu.r Is really so glad That he was able to come To Holy Cross instead of To Oxford, As his Humanities Prof At Wlieaton Academy Would have preferred, Because The Hill Is such a beautiful place, And the fellows Are such good sports, And the afternoon tea Is so much like home, you know. And Ilomer feels, really, for the first time, That he is doing something And finding his place in the World, Because his last quatrain Was accepted, And it might, mind you, G0 in the Purple. The only thing That Homer doesn't like Is the shower-bath idea: You know, he has been used To his tub and a rasher Of bacon, But, as Homer says, You can't expect everything, Even Up here at Holy Cross. .2 E! THE MAN ABOUT TOWN Rudolph Is such a rake, A Night Owl, a Man About Town, That it's really terrible. He knows the check girl At fI1'cke.y'.f By her first name, And the way he calls For a chocolate frappe At Eawionfr Is just killing. He smokes only the very best Russian cigarettes, He knows what's the latest In Mclnnes' window, And he loves to tell you About the heiress who fell for him In Winchenclon After the Harvard game. And about the time He came up the Hill At two A. M., with a full cargo And the watchman chased him And fell clown Loyola steps, Ha, hal Whenever you want To reserve a table, or a seat At the game, or a date, See Rudofpfz, he knows Everybody who l'J' dn-y!f11'l1g.

Curse it all. This formaldehyde Never did agree with my stomach. Why can't I be like other men? Robinson Crusoe for instancel Well, a blue room is the place to be happy. But I do wish I could have kept my tonsils, The doctor said he never saw such nice ones. Ju llzw' Caetrar Well, I guess I foxed them all. Everybody, including Billy Shakespeare, Thinks ambition brought me to an untimely end. Ha hal flnllzony knew I'd get him for cutting me Out in my affair with Cleo, So he got me first. And he managed to blame the whole thing on Bl'ulu.f. Ouchl HH0H10 Sapienff' Rusty knives. My gosh, lockjaw is a nasty thing. Solomon Here I lie. Six feet under, looking straight up. Doomed to everlasting cogitation about things in general, I have been called immoral-too many wives, for instance, Yet things could have been worse, Suppose-But that can rest, Among the great unspoken thoughts of great men. Now I must turn over and get some sleep. WHEN I GET OUT I'd like to Write Byronic paeans of passion- Like Shelley, ordered gropings, chill with beautyg I'd like to write my heartbreaks in Poe's fashion, And feel that I had written-sense the duty 5 But more severe ambition I must reck- Although I realize I should conceal it- Someday I'd like merely to write a check, Sign, and not feel it. k- 1' .5-2-3 if ' -,, ,,,-u ' V , 5 ,-ill l1I1rlI '!1l1lI-- x.-.T 55821 - urnle a ther pd : S rp: V M0111 A Ni :Q T ye X ?fi9 2 my x ll T 4 . THE CYNIC RUSSELL, having been disappointed In three embryo Love affairs, Read H. L. Mencken And the prefaces of G.B.S., Looks down on the world From a surprising altitude of Experience and A11 that sort of thing. Rune!! doesn't think that American Education Is so much, after all, Or that these cosmopolitan guys Really know what it is all about, Or that Socrates was really A great philosopher. And as for women, Rune!! knows them by heart, R-r-r-r-rl And you can't tell him anything About the Classics, Or modern literature, Or any other kind of literature, Because it's all The Bunk-he read so in The London Jlercury. Rzanrell doesn't want to enter Business, because business men Are mediocre, or a profession, Because they are all crooked. Tough luck, Rzarrrell. W f I -1- . . THE INTELLECTUAL This gentleman doesn't know What's gonna be next, But he can tell you What's wrong with Carl Sandburg, Or who Thackeray was thinking of When he wrote Vanity Fair, Or why he thinks Einstein's theory Is so congenial to one Of matured taste In Physics. He just loves to go and hear Katherine Bregy, She's so conservative, you know. He says that it's too bad One has to give up One's Greek, But after all, there's some Consolation In the companionship of the Other great men who wrote Philosophy. He isn't sure whether he ought To take up journalism Or devote his talent To some Worthier cause, such as The New Library. In spite of the fact that the world Is going wrong, He will probably end up Writing advertising copy For College Ifumor.
