Its protagonist, Youth, flashing like a comet out of twilight dusk, ever reaches for the glitter of stardust, and feeling the chal- lenge of the unknown and the lure of far horizons, strives with Herce necessity to attain the realm of conqueror. A This book. we offer as the contribution of youth, of the sincere, yet glorious youth, Which laughs at sham, which demands the truth, which at times plays the scofler and clown, but Which, incredulous of pains, of stings, of thorn- rods, is genuine and lives each moment to its fullness.

S is-ef I alll ri if fill!! I - - Old Holy Cross Holy Cross grew from a small school known as Mt. St. Iames, which was founded in 1838 by Father F itton, an active worker in education throughout Massachusetts. He gave the institution into the care of Bishop Fenwick, who deeded it, together withthe adjoining land, to the Iesuits. In 1843, Holy Cross, the first Catholic college in New England, was founded. The old frame build- ing, which was its first home was demolished by fire in 1852. The students and faculty were provided with temporary quarters by the generosity of the people of Worcester, until a new structure could be completed. This building became the nucleus of what is now O'Kane and Fenwick. Through the years that followed, rapid improvements were made and the institution steadily grew in size. Its reputation was enhanced by the type of training which became characteristic of the College. Alumni was built within the past twenty-five years and the remaining buildings followed in rapid suc- cession. The first step in the program of expansion was accomplished with the completion of the Memorial Chapel. Three years ago, the magnilicent structure which crowns the Hill, the Dinand Library, was completed. The :df if-ur -a.f:..--,.,,Ji- 1 liz' ' iii VE. mfr-,sa-nam. .1 .svn ,wam ,...4, .15 -.. .A ,fin-Q.. .,, former President, now Bishop Dinand, who cherished it as a dream, saw the time when it became a reality. As we go to press, ground is being broken for the new refectory, which will supply a long-felt want and greater recreational facilities. In keeping with the architectural improvements the grounds have been enhanced by judicious landscaping. Under the capable generalship of Father Earls, the sides of the hill have been transformed from ragged, unsightly blots into beautiful smooth slopes, so that with the advent of spring, Holy Cross is indeed an idyllic spot. The vision of Father Fitton has taken material form. Bishop Fenwick, who like Constantine, saw the Holy Cross as a sign of victory, read as did the Emperor, the truth in the future. From' its ample past we predict without trepidation a continuance, of its already brilliant progress. :lt has outlived fire and malice. It is more than an institution. In the hearts of its alumni itvwill ever dwell a 'living prototype of faith, idealism' and vision. Holy Cross is F destined to grow so long as the ideal' of highereducation survives. . Q2 FEC ff? .

' Crash! There goes another good pair of trousers as a sacri' hee to the cause of science. For, be it known, Doc once gave, his trousers over to sulphuric acid. And there in the laboratory we can best Hnd out the things that make him what he is. For he is one of the Pre-Medical section of '31. R Without a doubt he is one of the most good-natured members ' of our class. Many a time we have seen things happen to his 3 plans that would have made another stand in wrath, While Doc just went on serenely as if nothing had happened. I-Ie always works along that way, never in a hurry, but always u Finishing. And that is a tribute to anyone in that class. Many others finish ahead of him, but they have to hurry to do it. 1 . But let it not be imagined that he spends all his time in the laboratory. Not sol Much of it is spent there, it is true, but rumor hath it that during vacation Henry can on occasion emerge into the social life of Albany, Troy and other nearby places. At least it is certain that he has been a great help to the Albany Undergraduate Club in making successes of their undertakings. Other activities here on the Hill have not seen so much of him, due to his heavy schedule, but he has always been willing and anxious to do his part in making a success of anything the class of 1931 undertook. gf ':'f'f-'Vilas 1wwiy5 2q- Q wmve I, 1 il 'in RUM? .f .Jas-r is l IGI-IN FRANCIS AMBROSE, A.B.

The class of ,3l will never forget Ambie. I-Ise's that kind. Being of an amiable nature, Iohn made friends easily and almost before we had lost our awe of college life, Ambie was known to the entire class. fAnyone that throws ice-cold water on sleeping classmates at one o'cl-ock is bound to become knownj In those greatest of educators, the bull session, he more than held his own. Many a session that was slowly dying a natural death he revivihed with his flashes of wit, his unique method of expression and his comments upon the current tobacco situation. il-Iowever, he reached his greatest heights on that famous day when he so moved Tom Iudge by his personality and his powers of speech that Tom' personally convinced the Dean that Iohn needed a vacation. It is also rumored that this speech made such an impression on Tom that he tried to secure a permanent vacation for our hero. For four years, Ambie has devoted his energy to the gridiron. Success crowned his efforts in Senior year, when he was awarded thc coveted H. C. We are confident that Ambie will display the same tenacity in his chosen line of endeavor and we are even more conhdent that success will crown his efforts as in his days on the Hill. 27 'I E vt '- - ,V 5 1' if Z J ?5- JG' is if ' fr ii 1 i if 1 1 ik, 2 if figjl .

To the fan- tastic beat of the hours he kept time with snapping fingers and tapping toes. His lingers lent life to a keyboard of mute ivory. To him life was not a puzzle, but rather a tune to be blithely hummed even if at times the rhythm became the sombre tempo of a sonata or complicated measures of a rhapsody. In keeping with this character there could be found in Tom that sincerity which garbs the trouper of romance. Perhaps it is this added quality which informs the' complete, distinct personality which we have known. And this, in turn, is' augmented with an unselfishness which prompted him to lend this personality to an appreciative Worcester society-a-gift granted with such largesse and frequency that many times he was mistaken for a day-hop.

Of course the Musical Clubs were his Hrst love but, even so, the Aquinas Club and other insti- tutes numbered him as a member. And speaking of scholarship, it would be of more than passing interest to note that Ioe has always stood well up in his marks. Tenacity of purpose, single-mindedness, ambitions and ideals have drawn Ioe on to steady hard work and success. With his faithful Achates of a roommate-variously termed by the cognoscenti as Mysterious Mose, et alia, Ioe has covered more sectors of Worcester than anyone else per- haps in the school. The afternoon promenade of Ioe and Tom was a daily occurrence and heartwarming in its punctual regularity, with which neither storms, winds, nor acts of God interfered. There may be better scholars and better singers, but certainly there is not a better friend to be had than Ioe Austin. 29 l l . - -,L-Q Tii. ti .

Athletics seemed to permeate his whole career while at college. He was varsity half- back for three years, and when we say varsity halfback, we mean that he was outstanding. He could kick, pass, catch passes, and run with the ball-a real triple-threat man who worried more than one opponent. The by-word of the enemy seemed to be get Baker out of the way and things will go easier. Red was a great football player, but he also imprinted his name on the annals of the basketball team in his Sophomore year, those of track in his Iunior year and baseball in Senior.

Many a town in New England and eastern New York has heard his voice when the Glee Club visited them during the last four years. George always seemed to find their hospitality most enjoyable,--even if he did once have to spend a night in a fire-house with his fiery-haired roommate of the time. Besides all this, George is a bridge player, endowed with much skill and blessed with extraordinary luck. Few could withstand him. Nor would an account of him be com- plete which failed to mention his love for riding. He devoted many a Sunday morning to steeplechasing. George likes to read and will often bring very original theories into the perennial forum of the most ancient and honored Holy Cross institution. Nevertheless, as his various roommates will testify, .he might well have done so more often and practised his marks- manship with a knife much less. 4 32 ,A fa up . i N. ,, if vii 3 .

In every class or any large group of students there are always a few who remain obscurely in the background, but upon whose fiber the entire tapestry depends. Such a one is Arthur Baril. For the four years that the class of thirty-one has inhabited Mount Saint Iames, Arthur has been a dependable, almost a necessary, member. His phlegm and stoic trustworthiness did much to balance the eccentricities found in contrast in other fellow classmates. His quiet and reserve were something to be admired and envied by those who were not endowed with his seemingly limitless patience. It is almost trite to mention Arthur's natural modesty and his success in scholastic endeavor. In this case, however, the characteristics are so marked and outstanding that to delete commenting upon them would be a grave injustice. Failure also to mention the miraculous fact that Arthur, although subject to the rigorous brain twisting of the famed and awesome accounting course, did not lose his hirsute adornment to any noticeable degree, would be actual neglect. We do not expect Arthur to be a huge success, a flaming comet across the contemporary skies, for his personality is not of this type. However, it is not rash, but really meet that we prophesy that Arthur will go far in any profession to which he lends his talents. 33' g g l .'..x. ...ilu 4.-:rr '-zzz. 'er' ff' 1. ARTHUR BARNES, AE.

QWHL4 and baseball games. , As an aggressive defender of Scholasticism, secret trips to 4 Wellesley and Smith were made quite frequently. However, the reports of his empirical observations there were always vague! The combined qualities of a true -student, a calm reserve, a neat appearance, a logical sequence of thought and above all, the ability to form friendships made Arthur's position in the class secure. His ability to persevere and strong powers of concentration, together with natural ability made him successful in his studies and leaves him well fitted for greater endeavors. Although his future quest in life is a mooted question, we proclaim that Arthur will reach his objective with merit to spare. V l l xx I ROBERT IOSEPH BARRETT, A.B. DANBURY CoNN.

Bob's scrap-book contains every item of ,interest to Holy Cross students that has been published 'invany Boston or Worcester paper during the last four years. That is a valuable collection and perhaps in the years to come, we may find ourselves envying Bob's fore- sight in anticipating the days when college will be no longer an ever-present, everyday 2'air. Life is said to be a battle. If that is true, Bob has never been the aggressor. He doesnlt look for situations in which to 'try his mettle, but goes about with an unassumed confi- dence in his ability to win-and he does win. 35 1 .grab . rf 355512.31 .N E Hifriifif, I-Fi! ifiifi ' ' 1 .T ff? ,--,371 -,M 93: ji., K, ,,1 E, 5: sag: zfsi'-wriun Lay 33gg ,,f'1- 1,41 w.s..n 'Xuan ''.a.:,..-J..-x:,...'+-,:'-.eva-'..g-L: ,ii.T.f2,- -1- V.,--ff --H V ff' - Y - .t...,-.-' ,.v.,tf:.ai4.wnf.s.n.fsLse-rgf,a'-'- Jia- - - . 1.7 -Y , IOHN IOSEPH BENNETT, AE. f E if s , at ANSONIA, CONN. 3 A il Sodality 1, 2, 3, 45 Sanctuary Society 1, 2, 3, 45 junior Prom Com- 9. mittee, New Haven Club 1, 2, 3, 45 Class Soecer 43 Class Football 1, 2, 3, 4, Aquinas Circlej Senior Ball Committee.

He supported Holy Cross, her traditions, teams, and system to the bitter end of every bull session and believed in the general efficacy of the Ratio Stucliorunfz as a solution for national and international problems. Iohnas picture will be framed by many a friend and what greater honor can one desire of his fellows-than to have his picture singled out for that dignity. 3 36 ' . , A 1 . g,f -.

Nor can anyone, after four years of contact deny that our first A impression was in the slightest degree incorrect. His unso- phisticated, genial disposition has continued to Win him friends, and it can be with no small degree of pride that he can 1 i look back over four successful years. 1 Who does not recall the shades of Freshman History revived by Charley and his cohorts in Hanged, Drawn, and Quar- tered? Or who canever overlook Charleyas ever readiness to help out in receptions to Freshmen? Of his prowess as a social light, We knovv only by hearsay, but the evidence is over- whelmingly in his favor. When a handsome, smiling, yet indifferent young man is in circulation our guess is that he is rather in demand. We can't see how Charley could be an exception. 37 3 Li 3. ii V c ,J .fa rg ii ig. at Yi. j l . .,g -, .1 a . ,. ,Q . ,E , WAYNE LEO BESSELMAN, B.S. t BRAINTREE, MASS. : sodamy 1, 2, 3, 4, Boston club 1, 2, 3, 4, Debating 13 .4fwi1wf , ,, - -H if A I , . . . . e!,.af,..i Circlcj Mendel Acczciemyg Chemzsts 'Clubj Sczcntzfic Soczezfyj Izmzor city, Prom Committed F1'eslz1ncm Receptzon 45 Band 2, 3, 43 PATCHER 'gf '.- Stafi 4. , , ' In every class there is-a group of students who win distinction in scholastic activity.

But this precarious success which augurs so well for the future ease of civilization did not come as a surprise to the class. Wayne has in his years up here solved so well the secrets of chemical reaction that he seems to notice a substance's com- ponents and constituents almost instinctively. Each succeeding season he has won the honor for outstanding work in the chemical field and, in senior, this achievement was climaxed by his being awarded the College Fellowship which will keep him up on the hill while the rest of us are being battered against the craggy walls of life. However, even as we leave, we know we say farewell to a man endowed with real genius not only in studies, but in his ability to win friends and sell his most pleasing personality. 38 X n '12 , KT s l fr . . ?. i E I . 4 . . 1 1 tv-far , auf sffsm.srfvmf:f'feauuxwus-swamuw-vs:- .1 - .- - l . -. , .fa me-as Hrmwefe-nm-fftnJn:er:f5f,.,4A...4.xxi:-,:w,,.

If Bart Sullivan could have noticed Red in the morning dusks during Sophomore year as he daily set low-time records for covering the distance from Alumni to the golden gates, closed by St. Peter at 6.40, the track team would have been materially augmented. Yet Red did not always pass unnoticed. How could he? Those wavy, auburn locks made him stand out prominently in any crowd. It is a dangerous color, yet 1 quite contrary, Red is a happy, 'friendly fellow-well known, liked and talented. Though Iohn lives in Unionville his specialty was smaller towns with Hartford as the center of activities. There are those of the opinion that many hearts fluttered at his approaching footsteps. At least there must be some reason for the huge picture gallery ornamenting his desk, and this reason may be found in his popularity-a gift shared by more than merely his classmates. Red certainly liked to travel-witness the games and dances he attended, often sans ticket. His famous Essex non-stop Hight one vacation is a feat not to be forgotten by those present 'and his Sunday night hill-top experience proves the maxim that none but the brave deserve the fair.

Diamonds are, as a rule, small and rare-so are lads. like Charley. But despite his likeness to a diamond in size, rarity and value, Charley is very unlike a diamond, for the diamond owes all its beauty, all its glitter to an external light which it merely reflects, while the light which gives Charley these same characteristics emanates from within himself-the product of a minute dynamo producing concentrated sunshine, sunshine So indomitably effective that it glows in all its splendor even through the Worcesterian semi-darkness, redeeming it as it pierces it. To have known Charley is to have acquainted oneself with the essence of compactness. ' To have been intimate with him is to have known a friend To have known him is to have seen a little man doing big things in a big way and taking credit for them in a manner so modest as to be bordering on self effacement But since brevity is so inseparable a part of him, description of him should be most laconic Multis in parvo prints a word picture of Charley Boyle. 40 E' L 4, 3 ZSZ5' v 14 .

Iust as the leaves began to turn to a golden hue, Maurice, dragged his canoe into the boathouse, packed his worldly possessions, bade farewell to his beloved New Hampshire hills and descended on Holy Cross. He came with a broad smile and after passing through the classics of Freshman year, the rhetoric of Sophomore year, the tautological philosophy of Iunior year and the ever present psychology of Senior year-he still wears that self-same smile. Verily, admiration is a feeble 1. word to describe the youth who has survived all that and still 4 smiles. I V Maurice is, in truth, an all around good fellow and to know him is to like him. Oft on the soft breezes have we heard the melodious tunes emanating from his beloved violin. The orchestra would have been sadly incomplete without him and on those concert tours he was a shining light. Fond of almost every kind of recrea- tion he represents the ideal citizen. He meets every problem with a smile and if he can meet the problems of life with the same broad smile no man living can predict to what heights of success he may attain. 41 Tv J, . 4' ,gba . if 'A '6 . sf? i.

A Buffalo Bill, a class pirate, a popular person and a room- s mate of chi-o-ta are some of the characteristics of this admir- able New York Stater, who is bathed every morning he is 1 ' home by the spume of Niagara Falls-and lets everyone know it. George Brunner brought a car up to school in Iun- Q . ior year and Worcester had no peace from that time to this. The four-wheeled thing had been anticipated since his yearling days and just when the fellows were beginning to think that George was only telling a fairy tale, up pops the Chrysler. But before that even, the admirable George was placed with the gods, being the recipient of innumerable burning letters of the passionate hue. Sometimes George tired of too fast a life and then would come a smooth, robin's egg blue stationery and there would be a dreamy haze in George's eyes as he thought of what waited for him at the end of the overnight hike into the wilds of BuFfalo's leading suburb. Brunner will always lead everywhere he goes. Whatever undertaking he enters into he will immediately be thefmaster. It is this sterling quality that has predominated his characteristics in his dealings on the Hill. v 43 .1 if al I VS 19. I. v - I, , . .

Wherever there is a crowded room it may usually be attri- .. buted to the popularity of its inmates and throughout his four i years on the hill Bernie's room has always been a gathering place of the class. In freshman year this had somewhat devastating results for Bernie and Bill spent many a dollar for plaster in order to avert a repetition of the fall of Troy. But Bernie curbed his gymnastic proclivities as his scholastic career progressed, and impromptu debates superseded them. Many ' 4 ' and diverse were the discussions that took place and Bernie was never barren of arguments as his opponents ruefully discovered. Bernie was nothing if not conscientious and as a corridor caller the most conhrmed late sleepers yielded to his impelling summons, although objecting vehemently to his using a whistle. In senior year he proved an admirable lieutenant to his roommate in ofliciating at basketball games and incidentally developed a penchant for referee's horns and whistles. In the affairs of the Lowell Club, Bernie was the power behind the throne and the many successful dances he ran augur well for his future in business. We feel safe in prophesying that Bernie's future, both in graduate school and in after life, will be replete with successg the qualities which he has manifested on the hill not only betoken success, they demand it. 5 45-- , , , U ' , Il v. if i ii S it 23 M gf 5 Si il , 1-if iv' :Q All 41 f - iv, 'ii ' V' ' ixgfarffg 'i ... .at 1 r' :I JAMES DELANEY BURNS, Pals.

Our Biffer has been out- 1 , ,,,a 'r-5, V ,av , 3. L. standing in both studies and athletics during his four years i wi, 5 5:5 as on the Hill. It seems that his hobby is music. He could wind L M2 - sl ms, tv V, a victrola faster than anyone else on the corridor and when he S T ii. - graduated from the victrola to the radio, the general cry of the 4 ff boys was' Bilfer, get some good musiclv If there was any ' ' is A good dance orchestra to be heard, he was the only one who ' in i could tune the music in satisfactorily. Of course you realize that winding victrolas and tuning radios were only part ,of his extra-curricular activities. He was also an actor. In 'the Senior Reception, Biffer took a leading part and due to his wit and humor, he afforded the unsuspecting Freshmen with many a good laugh. These activities were overshadowed by his brilliant career on the track, under the clever guidance of Bart Sullivan. One event was not enough for him, he had to be kept busy all the time. His chief event was the broad jump, but as a dash man he could stick with anyone, and he could clear a mean hurdle as well. These things kept him busy in the afternoon, while at night he gave the books plenty of his time. But the memory which Biffer will always treasure is the fact that he was not elected the smallest fellow in the class. 46 as - -i . , . .il 34- ' 4 fill? K ii ' -In ff I -e ' ,-QV!

Cupid blushed and Adonis girded himself for battle when a certain debonair 'youth first strolled nonchalantly up gree- bowered Linden Lane. From the bustle of the Insurance City came the romantic figure of Frank, but with him came the culture of Aristotle. Although les lvelles femmes a la Worces- ter and points to the north, south, east and west, proved a per- sistent distracting note in his career, Frank soon demonstrated a mind that easily conquered the rigors of Latin and Greek ' and showed a keenness and aptitude for philosophy-Kant, Spinoza and NNI-Iuxleyv included. Tending to the aristocratic, Frank's versatility distinguished him in many fields of endeavor not alone of which was his ability to adjust himself to any and every solution-bridge, at the prom, at many and divers private conclaves. The bridge team of Carney and Doheny issued numerous chal- lenges and easy victories resulted. i In our dealings with Frank We have never seen him lose his serene and tranquil com- posure.

And if these same miles were doubled, as one of his Fitchburg cohorts will immediately tell you, they would go twice as far. ' Extra curricular activities were entirely neglected by Leo in his interludes between bus rides, but with all that he suffered we have not the heart to Hnd censure. Aside from this, Leo did manifest his ingenuity and cleverness by forming one of the ardent members who cluttered Bunny Doheny's room immediately after lunch each weekday. Moreover his interest in matters scholastic was matched by few in the class. Always prepared and always alert, he was the ideal student. If Leo manifests the same attention in future life he will, we are confident, go even further along the road to success than he did in his daily treks to Worcester. f ., 1, ., .,, 52 . , l f 1 ' is 1 'gh Gr Nl., ' R.: '4 ' 51.

Then the mighty and the cocky Carroll strutted back in September to join the class of 1931. Cn his face the smile of a man who is more mighty than destiny, the Irish twinkle still in his eyes, and upon his lips the old quick retort which we have grown to love. He became our legacy.', Overnight, he was one of the most popular men of the class. Then came the class banquet. And what a speech young Franklin Df' made that night! Voice vibrant with sincerity, eyes kindled with fire, presence virile with energy, he spoke on. Reminiscent of the old days when Carroll would arise on the debating platform, and with a flippant, deeply sarcastic turn of phrase obviate the worth of an opponent's entire speech. He is of course headed for the bar, but we predict his eloquent tongue and far reaching vision will not find their place until the day Carroll bears the banner of Democracy in the Commonwealth. 53 .

For four long years Tom has trekked his plodding Way up through the valleys that lie down Providence Way, blazoning out a path for what bids fair to be another of the big family contingents on the Hill. Tom is the senior member of a tri- umvirate of Carrolls, and from what these boys have shown us in the Way of musical talent, it looks as though the orches- trating fraternity of the Lombardos will have to guard its l ff 3, s ,inf laurels in the immediate future. l ,wiigi-,Egggfp ir' 'f i gif It is no easy task to commute a distance of some fifty miles ,N-.n':' .ig every day and at the same time to maintain the standard of scholarship and the range of extra-curricular activities that Tom . has managed. Perhaps all things do come to him who waits, including trains, and marks, and positions in bands, and places on Varsity tennis teams, so the unlimited patience and stick-to-itiveness that is part and parcel of Tom's makeup may be the secret behind his success. Coupled with this patience is an excessive good nature and easy-'going placidity that some people might be inclined to take undue advantage of, but that is the price 'one has to pay for the gift of geniality. 3 There are few of us who, having made so quiet an entrance and unobtrusive a stay, will take so easy an exit as Tom.

With a weather-eye on prefects and others of like ilk, Pat has eked a most successful social career from the meager opportunities of the Cross. Endowed with a taste for beau- tiful women, a fine appetite, cleverness in repartee, he has climbed high on the social rungs of two cities. In studies Pat has fared well, and is ready to dash out into the cold, cruel world, sit down in any smoker on any train and confound any Adversary. 55 3' l l A-L. rl'- up Mtg. lfl Ei - .5 ti' lk E l 5 - L L, THOMAS ANDREW CHRISTENSEN, BS.

The above gentleman is the rare exception of our graduating ll' 11 f. class, the student athlete. There may have been bigger men in T the class than Ed, but none as big a man in athletics and scholarship combined. Four years of excellence on the gridiron and an equal complement in the classroom stamp him with , the seal of universal approval. His like is not the rule, but the exception, and we acclaim him. Not alone for these qualities is Ed so high in our esteem, 1 fl but also, for that innate manliness and refinement of character E i A so characteristic of a real gentleman. A good-natured dis- position and a willingness to help others won him many friends and made his friendship something to be desired and always preserved. A Hrm adherent to the principle of a well rounded-out education, Ed Hnished off with many a Hying trip to the metropolis of the commonwealth where we understand his col- lege career was completed most thoroughly and pleasantly. At least, that was invariably the story upon a late Sunday evening return. The Boston 8: Albany is going to miss him next year. But someone's loss is always another's gain, and so with the railroad interests we too will miss this ood friend, while other Helds welcome his arrival.

Gene always persisted in carrying this mask everywhere about with him, and it was only whengamong his chosen few that he would drop it and sh-ow the personality that dwelled within. It was too bad that this had to be the case,-too bad, that is, for the many who never got to know just who this person was.

I-Ie had the common sense of realizing that he who knocks his own college is foolishly arguing against himself and in the most condemning aa' hominem fashion. Consequently, while his very nature precluded the possibility of his ever becom- ing a booster, Gene ardently defended the fact of his good taste by championing in a less rah-rah, but more intelligent manner, the glory of Holy Cross. i l 4' r L 3+ 1- -1 J-- 'ef-faq' 5?

There are two big things associated with Iim's career at Holy Cross, one is Gwendolyn, the discarded Dodge, and the other his voice. Both have great volume of sound in common, with an accidental difference in pitch, 'for Gwendolyn has a high, shrill frequency, while the voice is deep and sonorous. To under estimate either would be a serious crime. In the forensic Held this same voice has been second only to the keenness of his mind in fabricating arguments and detecting the loopholes in the stand of his opponent. And again it was the incomparable voice that often made the stands re-echo with hoiahs, for lim was a member of the most distinguished and successful band of cheerleaders that ever pepped up the Holy Cross student body to victories over Harvard and Boston College. -, C, y, 59 xv N i .g. fi W.

Pat was one of those fortunate ones who incurred the envy of his fellow classmates by urooming out for two years. In ' his Freshman year his frequent weekends provoked our ex-Dean . of Discipline to style him the day-ducking Bostonian. A Whether or not this was the cause of Pat's departing from our midst was never ascertained. Pat rejoined the class, however, in his Senior year and his ubiquitous smile soon became a familiar sight in Loyola. As a pitch player Pat yielded to no I i one and was exemplified as an authority by his fellow players. Pat was a Hrm believer in the adage that sleep is the supreme panacea for rare indeed was the occasion that could cause him to forego his afternoon nap. In fact, one Easter vacation Pat returned' early to secure rest to Ht him for the ensuing classes and accom- plished this task so thoroughly that he slept through the first four classes of the opening day. CPat never did things by halvesj Frenchie whiled away much of his spare time in nourishing sporadic moustaches, but has yet to achieve the permanent variety which will survive the onslaught of a cursory sneeze.

Ioe was not a glory seeker and did not confine himself to one or two activities wherein he could have excelled. Rather he lent his talents to almost every organization on the Hill. He has made trips with the Musical Clubs as a guestj, kept score for the basketball team, been a frequent performer on the Fenwick stage, a prominent Hgure in class athletics.

In proof of this we offer Frank as an example. In recording ularly laudable features, but in adequately describing his funda- mental qualities. Throughout our four years we have felt the warmth of his ready smile, the kindliness of his interest and unselfish aid. His character did much to dispel the gloom of wintry days. Somewhere way back before his advent to Mt. St. Iames Frank was labelled Pete and so well did the nickname stick that by it we best know him. Pete is small, but of his ability to do things in a big way there is no doubt. As Worcester Club chairman he put over, in senior, a smashing social success which has not since been duplicated. In fact, during the Hnal year the little mite was the power of the Worcester Club. However C'osty did not confine his activities to the Worcester Club entirely and we found him listed among the committee-men of, almost every class activity. In Iunior and Senior, Pete chose pedagogy as a supplement to his philosophy courses.

The brawn of his still remembered forerunner had its effect on George to the extent that it developed in our classmate a powerfully set jaw and a stoically taciturn demeanor-qualities which we shall always remember as characteristic of one of the finest. 66 4 r q ,K ,..L III. . ,-,gi R f . - F . 1 , v , 1 ll Q , 1 DANTE VINCENT CRAPOLICCHIO, A.B.

Among the Worcester contingent is Al, a ruddy cheeked son of Erin as the above photo testifies. Coming from the North High School with an enviable record as a trackman, Al, early in his Freshman year, joined Bart Sullivan's squad. To his ability in this line may be ascribed his success in reaching Mt. 3' St. Iames each morning across the hills and dales of Worcester. A Al raced against time each day just managing, however, on each occasion to get in under the wire at 8.59. Al's one desire has been to give the World a detailed record of the life of his idol, Mussolini. Noontimes found him in the Day Scholars' room holding in sway Worcester'S collegians with his eloquent ' tributes to the mastery and the brilliance of Itly,s Il Duce. VVe are sure that when Al finishes his masterpiece, that Italyis dictator will not go un- honored or unsung. As Iohnson had his Boswell, so also has Benito his Cravedi. . Dame Gossip has said that Al may shortly go to Italy to teach the young Blackshirts, for in Iunior year he added the study of education to his curriculum. A trip into Mr. O'Gorman's class will show plainly the seriousness with which Al has applied himself. Such application augurs well for future Success in the field of education-a success which will be well merited. 68 I 'q1?5 . 1- '. f . ,. ., i- Q '!J'.l'. GEORGE DAVID CROMBIE, PH.B.

Here is a quiet, unassuming chap whose capabilities are known to only a few of his intimates. George is so modest that no one thought to vote him most modest. That is indeed the essence of modesty. F rom the outset, George made many and staunch friends due to his likeable disposition and calm, even temper. Never did he refuse anyone a Lucky and we fear that he will never be classed among the millionaires until he collects a few of the loans he made during his four years here. The press of studies and the demands of his extra-curricular activities prevented us from knowing the real man for a long time. However, it is the lasting regret of those who have come to realize the value of his friendship that graduation will separate him from us all too soon. Four years of strenuous college life, especially as it is lived on this mountain, have been known to rufiie the dignity and reserve of all of us-but George has never lost the cheerful willingness to oblige, the quality which Hrst won our admiration. Generous, good-natured and smiling, we say farewell to George with the hope of meeting him later on-and we know that he will be the same loyal friend. 69 if-adder r . KJ- p A P' G ' f 'Ill' ' 1.

Because of the fact that he ' :yep 1 was a day student and one to whom the closing bell of class S was the signal for a fast start down the hill, it was difficult for many to enjoy the privilege of a close association with him. However, those who were included in the range of his friend- ship found him unasuming although possessed of a natural cleverness and a likeable nature. As friendship grew, these characteristics formed bonds of good fellowship which were . both respected and esteemed. It often seemed that one of his favorite duties was to arouse drowsy sleepers on late sleep mornings and although possessed of a well modulated and pleasing voice at these times the sound of his approach. was not welcomed. Ioe has proven himself a capable student with a liking for philosophical discussions in which he has manifested the value of the well-worn distinctions.

For four years has Iohn climbed to the heights of Mt. St. Iames from the lowlands of Main south in pursuit of wisdom. Coming from St. Iohn's High, Iohn soon revealed to us that he was a master of the Classics in virtue of the ease with which he translated the intricate sentences of the Latin and Greek authors. When Iunior year rolled around and entrance was made into the hallowed realms of philosophy, Iohn again revealed that he was as clever solving the difficulties of Kant, Hume and the rest -as he was at translating Plato, Euripides or Cicero. However, lest one might surmise that HI. T. has - devoted all his hours to books, it might be well to mention the fact that the Musical Clubs, in particular the band, claimed much of his attenti-on. ln this organization he revealed his ability not only as a trombonist but also as a humorist. Many a tiresome bus ride was relieved of its monotony by his witty remarks. By the way, you know Iohn organized the Mickey Mouse Clubi' fa carefully selected group of band members and ipso facto became President. Iohn and his banjo were also the means of much appreciated pleasure at numerous entertainments. 71 Ansesass-MNH1 1 'HH' 11'l ' J: R 4- wiki 11'.2alil'il14R'uiI?7'E4l3idiEdK+ in Cf 9' 'fi ,L L w egvanae... c -fr'L-Hllib ,.,. . -. .Y - - ' 4 sugim-1.s.sunu,il1J.4auv:1:aw..,.ng-.f-i,:s. ,lynn-e , . , ' , .- .:. -Y - I I 4 ' ' ROBERT STEPHEN CROWE, BQS.

For taciturnity, Cal Coolidge has nothing on Bob Crowe. It A has been estimated that Bob spoke less than one thousand Words for four years at Holy Cross. This is truly a remark- able record of which to boast, particularly when the output of verbiage of the rest of the senior class would float-or more probably sink-the whole American navy. But such silence is . an excellent indicator of character. Bob's quietness has de- noted not an inability to talk, not a lack of subject matter nor the wherewithal to put that matter across. . What it most surely shows is Bobls quiet wisdom, the type new possessed by the onlooker who is :amused with the useless writhings of those whom he placed beneath his mental microscope. Realizing the waste- fulness of the lost motion involved in talking, Bob has devoted himself with the steadiness of a vowed anchorite tothe perusal of tome after tome on the sciences. And in the pur- suit of the battered Muse of success he has attained excellent marks. But beware lest you mistake the gentleman for a passive and inactive type of fellow. See that wicked little gleam in his eye? Well that betokens as surely as does the silence, a depth of feeling which, once stirred and aroused, could scarcely be equalled in length or intensity by any of the professional joy-hounds. Well balanced in character, studious, friendly, and loyal, Bob has gone the timeworn path of the Holy Cross man through four years of hard work to well-earned graduation. . if 'ain--..e.+.-MM-,-4-.- -1--we i-n',:1a'zu:14.::.5. -. 1 ' ' W 105125 f-L.:-rf - i-?f ' 'Iliff f ' I 6 X W ,hlfai Y 1 1 :rf 1oHN M.

But those who have, may easily make their thanksgiving of: better to have come and just met Curley, than never to have come at all. Perhaps they will recall the Way he impressed some of us. A young fellow with a thoroughbred air about him, like the impress of travel and fine tastes, an intriguing aroma of having been places and seen things, of having tasted and broken many things Qhearts, homes and mud-guards especiallyl. A gentleman, courteous in all things. Destined he is for the best that the best of society can offer, by eminent right of his manners, Byron- esque appearance, keen intelligence and polished diplomacy. Some day We hope that it shall be Lord Curley of the British Royal Society of Phy- sicians and Surgeons. We speculate on just how valuable he really would be in a Hu epidemic, or an outbreak of East-side cholera, but in minor ailments like a severe attack of ennui, it would most certainly be very relieving, and very fashionable to have Dr. Curley in attendance.

Bob is one of those rare humans who apparently go through life without a Worry. Perhaps he has one or tvvo, but if he does, he never lets anyone in on the secret, which is, after all, one of the Ways to make the World happier. Bob chuckles good-humoredly at the World and its foibles. Such things as exams, graduation, Women, and the one hundred and one other items which cause college seniors to lose their hair hold no terrors for Babe.

He studied only a normal amount during his years at college, but his grades proved inevitably,far above the average. Open any Latin or Greek author studied in Freshman or Sophomore, and Bob can translate with ease passages the majority have long since forgotten. His gift for learning rapidly and retaining what he has learned should take him far on the road to success. Yet his wisdom is not alone scholarly, rather does it possess a pleasing tang of worldli- ness, at once deep and understanding, labelling him as a true man of the World. 74 1 s l PWi,7'L'ftf i. ,. ,HU fi' :-rw 11, .

We have often heard of men of opposite temperament becoming fast friends and in Charley and Paul we have another example. Paul is the retiring Scholar, Charlie the unquenchable fount of anecdotes. We have discovered a certain efficient, yet friendly way about Charley that has inspired a feeling of confidence in his ability to do things right. For in the various ofhces which have been entrusted to him, Charley has shown a marked capacity for success. Consider his activities for making our Iunior Prom so enjoyable. Consider his unselhsh and highly satisfactory work on the Class Ring Selection Committee. Consider his prominence in the different functions of the Vv'orcester Undergraduate Club.

In a school whose members are entirely of the rugged and graceless sex, the dramatic moderator always sighs with the greatest relief when someone like Iim Deeley puts in an ap- pearance-for Iim in his four years up here has been the feminine lead in every dramatic production-to say nothing of the various parts he has portrayed in the Freshman Recep- tions. Disguised beneath heavy layers of makeup, he has seen men light for the favor of his smile, and to arouse such action -- 4 in a group of typical Cross men, we beg to explain, is more than a mere accomplishment-it closely approximates a miracle. But after the final curtain descends and the footlights are extinguished, Iim turns his attention to another task which demands as much genius and is directly contrary to the art of acting, and that is the managing of Bart Sullivan's speedsters. The tact and patience required to pacify'the demands of gargantuan weight heavers and temperamental sprinters who are endlessly seeking new spikes, sweat-pants and towels, is indescribable. And yet Iimmy performed the feat with a seemingly eiifortless ease. Now that graduation brings to a close '31's participation in college activities, we look to Iim to carry on in the way he performed up here. .5-E 9ei :.. -swfiilselfa, .. rg Un-wQSn7vTf33Sfe1'!4i'i'-3-'Ndiaeviiwi'- ei T ' i,...'f -TC-' mar:-fire' s ,Qu ' A ' , ' 'X have-New-if .

Although Iack lived all his life in the shadow of a 'quite-well-known insti- tution of higher education, when the time came to choose an Alma Mater, he fared forth to unknown Helds like the true V, Crusader that he is. Four years have passed, much has trans- pired, and yet Iack is still faring forth. For the first two years of '3l,s career Iack was one of the boysf, He lived with A gf us, ate with us, smoked our cigarettes, and-but the points ' V- enumerated should be enough to prove our contention. i When we took possession of Beaven, Iack was missing and then we realized how much his hearty greeting and good- natured smile had meant to us. Our fears were allayed, how- ever, for Iack was present at the Schola Brevisf' We then found to our consternation that he had transferred his allegiance. Worcester had claimed him for her own, and he had responded. Some attributed this change to Iack's roving' spirit, some to the loss of his dashing room-mate fhe of the immortal skiing outfitj. Whatever the reason, needless to say, it must have been sufficient. We have forgiven many things, but we never felt that a man who would leave these hallowed walls for a front room at one of Worcester's better boarding houses, would ever regain his former prestige. We were wrong and lack quickly re-established himself and Won in our regard a favor even greater than that which he had previously achieved. 77 rim-'rg---f-F f'. T I rig,.g.,:,,1,,.7:t, . V.

In Iunior year he dropped out of a clear sky into our midst -unknown. ln two weeks, he was a campus character, and for two years ever since has remained impregnably in that posi- tion.

While everyone else, it seems, is tearing around trying to collect enough scraps of learning to get the gentlemanrs mark at all costs, lim could be seen quietly reading somebody's latest. His marks led us to believe the latter. Ask the unusual Iim anything literary, whether it pertain to Spenser's Fairie Queen or Edward Arl- ington R-obinson's latest, and you will receive the proper evalu- , ation, for Iim is undoubtedly our widest-read man. A man of moods we often suspected, yet dared not make free to sound his depths or intrude upon his privacy. And well could he afford to live his quiet, independent, thoughtful existence, for in his possession was the priceless heritage of acquaintance with the richest learning of the past, and a judiciously poised appraisal of the present, while all the while there rested in his hand awaiting the call, a clarion pen, more powerful than any orator's thunder or politician's wiles, a pen that could describe or criticize, praise or excoriate, expound or propose with equal force and facility. 1 , T X GEORGE DRAPEAU, IR., A.B.

George is possessed of that rare combination, a deep mind and a light heart. He is a genuine student, but not a ugrindng an intensive and discriminating reader, but not a book-worm, a real good-fellow, but not a time-waster. There are few who are able to boast as many close friends as George can number. His sincerity wins him into the most intimate confidence of those who really know him. Many are the precious pills of advice that this sage of twenty-two has had . to administer to less worldly-wise companions who have come to him laden with the weighty problems of life and love which beset the college senior. Though Gorge may live in a small town in a sparsely settled state, he is the most cosmo- politan of the cosmopolitans. His ideas are as broad as his girls are numerous, though his heart is as fickle as they are lovely. He is at home in' the ship-yards at Bath and the Copley in Boston, in a Pullman car or on the roadj'g in a drawing-room conversation or a collegiate bull-session. George enjoys the present, in whatever circumstances it may find him placed, but he never loses sight of the future. .With such assets as these, we feel certain that he will meet with success and happiness, in whatever field he chooses. 81 . , .V ,af ,, 1 fi ,.Q:i-4Ma.ad,.a.:s-r.f'4.: nzssmaz- awww ummm-.n1o1.nmmnoue.cJqsaei.X:.u'L'.' zz' 31.2.

Tom came to Holy Cross at the commencement of junior its 'q i X year when '31 had just succeeded to the princedom of the hill. J: in . With two years of work at St. Anselm's for background, he A threw himself into the life of the class and in a short space of l ff Q Q. time had swiftly built up friendships, which ordinarily would fav have been two years in the ripening. From an added and sigh s, strange face he grew to be one of the familiars in the class, and the dean's office, particularly, has well noted his scholastic 15 ability. all p l ' Binding his abilities in and out of class with a most likeable s personality, by senior year the chrism of his adoption had faded quite away and he was one of us. Everything that was Holy Cross or of Holy Cross was a matter of interest for Tom. He had more than three-corri- dors-full of friendship-he knew and was known by groups of underclassmen. Tom was esteemed in class as a seer of reliable abilities and his prognostications on examinations were sure-fire. Making up his two years of absence, Tom walked about the city with the indefatiga- bility worthy of a cross-country man. He was reserved by nature, but the acquaintances he made at school and in town formed an important part of his social activities. Life on the hill bore down at times, but in the grayest moment there was a compensation always to be had, a cheery hello and smile from Tom. .-.mf . . 82 K W 4 I l HUGH ALOYSIUS DUGGAN, A.B. NEW BEDFORD MASS. Sodality .45 Aquinas Circleg New Bedford Club 43 Sanctuary Society. Not until Senior year had dawned upon us did the be-ul- stered Hugh join the ranks of the class of '3l. Coming to us with the last traces of theological training clouding his thinker's brow he soon settled down in the Cross routine and after shifting his domicile with the waywardness of an Omar, l snuggled into one of Loyola,s rooms with the embattled Will , Woods. Of friends he soon had plenty. The anecdotes of i cloistered halls put a wizard's spell upon many an embryo cynic. With wrinkled forehead he frowned his way through many a philosophy class and was the sensation of the education course. He was a pater confessionisv for many a world- wearied senior, yet settingthe world to rights for others he carried a burden of his own, unknown to his circle of acquaintances. Many was the night he awoke at three in the morning to smoke an hurried cigarette while his stormy petrel of a soul was buffeted by strange thoughts. And many were the occasions when Willie and Hugh met on the field of forensic combat, many the times when Hugh mingled, a playful sprite, with his next-door neigh- bors and some of the other boys on the corridor. His poise and ease, his readiness to mix on any kind- of good time, his stalwart personality, but made his friends regret they had not known him longer. Hugh is a dreamer, an idealistg his head is ever in the clouds and the gods smile upon him. 83 f ,M ,Q ts .EIL , 12 '1 f.' - L Tl, 45 y . .ff-vs l -1-xpn l gl , , f , -1 S f - ' 'Q'-4 .rms S ,HI 'V fgQ.a.zf4s:-eammpedz-wemqauiuliipw . , ' liiilli-K4'Ii! 9 ?f1P,l r..h 3S5'.5 '5i'??w'1e?f-FK F.

Have you witnessed in the past few years the trend of Worcester citizens toward the better things in life? Steve alone is responsible, for he educated them along these lines. He has begun quite early in life his mission of guiding and directing his fellow men toward intellectual development. For throughout his Iunior and Senior years he has been relieving the toiling Worcesterites of their hard-earned cash in return for literature that is guaranteed to place them in closer touch with the humanities, to broaden their views, and to elevate their if souls. It requires strategy and executive ability to put such a plan across and Steve was the one behind the scenes. He directed the activity of several salesmen whose tenacity and singleness-of-purpose in making a sale resulted from the influence of their manager. This managerial ability Steve brought into the classroom, as a perusal of the Dean's list will attest, for regardless of his outside activities Steve always found time to prepare his lessons and remain well up in his classes. Though his business ventures kept him on the go, each social event found Steve present and we have often wondered how business men learn to dance so well. So little time did he spend among us that for long he was an enigma, but we soon came to know him and like him. 84 . y...-.,-.vaseas.s.A - .via-...4.'

Oh, I enjoyed my sojourns in Panama and San Francisco, but I shall never forget the thrilling moments experienced in Tia Iuanan-thus Tom would begin his most interesting and fascinating descriptions of his adventuresome days. Reserve and sobriety were his outstanding characteristics, nevertheless he had a most intriguing power of placing himself into one's friendship--and staying there. His constant perusal of the if mail boxes in behalf of Mullen, Cooney et al exemplihes but one phase of his graciousness. If after the corridor lights had been extinguished, a shrill, piercing and rather annoying noise was heard re-echoing through Lower Loyola, be assured it was only one of T'om's periodic chuckles, caused by another of his' roommatels witticisms. Aside from this, We must mention his most worthy attempts to revive the Cossack uniform. Tom listened to the plaudits accorded to the classics and the pure sciences and with Socratic wisdom and Portian decision, he chose the happy medium-a cultured scientist. He possesses the Dionysian spirit in maintaining that life. without laughter is death. With his ready smile, bubbling good spirits, argumentative powers, his ability to mix with his fellows, his unruffled temper, secure knowledge of his own mental achievements, he remains one of the more colorful of the many species rememorativaev which we will carry away from the vast assorted mass of phantasms impressed on us during four years. ,'f'.yf vt ,- .-,,,, 231.15 ll Hi, -'431lFw1' lillil , . 9..!-1411? . . 85 , I V. 4 -v Tl 'le .:4. . f lg! . ..

Bill, whose beaming 1 i - countenance smiles so warmly from atop this page, guided the vig it destinies of 1931 for the last half of its existence as an under- Q 1 - graduate unit. Billls assets are really too numerous to mention in this lim- ited space. He has poise and personality and good looks and M I a good head. He has depth and vision3 knowledge and com- ' A mon sense. He is an interesting talker and an interested listener. But above all, he is a born leader. Bill's heart and soul were with the class, and the class was heart and soul with Bill. He managed the football team with characteristic efficiency, and gained the admiration of all with whom that position brought him into contact. His qualities of leadership were manifested in his lighter- pursuits as well as in his official duties. Whenever the gang was divided on what to do or how to do it, Bill was always consulted, and never failed to find a solution acceptable to everyone. Bill was equally popular with the members of the fair sex as he was with the fellows. Many a maiden took pride in having him as her escort at a prom, but we have a lurking suspicion that a certain lovely creature from his home town had all prior claims to his affections. i , 87 1 1 J ' Ei a vi. 52 i 5 D EI' ' 1-' Q if .' 4 1 1 l 'i i at , , 1 A 1, f gall, 'iiiif -EE li DAVID M.

Most admirable of all, however, is the fact that his wide ability is not manifested by a garrulous tongue.

An unassuming lad from Maine came with us to Holy Cross in 1927 and it was some time before we knew that he was here. When, however, the day carne, on which the last of our pecuniary resources had vanished and cigarettes could be had only by asking, Frank was discovered as the urara avis whose generosity never slipped a cog. Since then he has never refused, no matter what one wanted. It wasn't long before we found that he was most anxious to travel. It is interesting to note that this nomadic urge usually led to Gardiner. Frank enjoys the company of Morpheus so thoroughly that it would 'take a better man' than his roommate to bring him back to the realm of reality. This, however, may be in great part due to the roommate. In an ardent endeavor to teach Tack the ins and outs of modern society, Frank, has so wearied himself that what sleep he manages to get is- well deserved. Then, too, Tack plays the French horn and the banjo. VVhile Frank has learned to tap-dance, undoubtedly because of his cl-ose association with the rhythm of the banjo, he has never been able to sleep when the hour of the siesta arrives, because of his roommate's musical abilities. Frank, although shunning the limelight, has been always ready to help any one of us. He has the power of making people staunch friends of his.

A To attempt to portray in limited space the character of the man F whose deeds have been lauded in the columns of every paper and whose fame has been orchestrated by the singing wires of the Associated Press, is a foolhardy venture destined to inad- equacy. Tubber--the man who out-Ticknored the All-Ameri- i can Ticknor-the center who caught a punt-who outplayed the heralded Siano-who led the purple basketball squad l through a trying season-but it is futile to continue, for the accomplishments are seemingly endless. But even more remarkable is the fact that the Tubber Farrell, man about campus, prince of good fellows and friend is as famous a personage and as likeable a personality as the Captain Farrell of athletic fame. Blessed with a southern drawl and the slow gestures of a southern gentleman of the old school, Iim is one of the most popular men to ever climb the not so gentle undulations of Mt. St. Iames. Add to this the fact that he is one of the most handsome of the class components and the complete personality is more than good-it's darn near perfect. But we are not finished. All this is further augmented by the remarkable gift of harmony which made him always in demand in the quartettes which every campus boasts. Thus it is that Holy Cross suffers a real loss when Tubber takes the high road to new adventure-for a man of such individuality, geniality and versatility is indeed a rare creature. 91 ' Q 17,1 .QTEK 35.0151 .Yin i L- nh... 5125: ...... r.au:...Qng'fasfsf:sz1ae 'Aram -if C4 5 1:2 QT' 1 5 V 1oHN 1oSEPH FEELEY Pais.

There are few men who can leave School and then return to the comparatively monoto-, nous grind of school work-for to do so requires a patience and genius which are denied most mortals. It is for this reason that we view Iack with such admiration. Moreover, to return and not only successfully overcome Scholastic barriers, but to enter whole-heartedly into extra-curricular activity is a feat nothing Short of miraculous. And yet Iack did just this-and did it with an ease which made the effort seem perfectly simple.

Of a quiet nature his character has been revealed quietly and, to those intimates of his, the disclosures have only strengthened . the bonds of acquaintanceship. His activities have been con- fined almost entirely to strictly curricular activities, but his interest in school affairs never lagged and his brief but shrewd comments were often eagerly culled -by the more observing. Ed comes from the city of Holyoke, that fair blossom of the . Connecticut Valley, and his interest in the undergraduate club of that town has been most deep.

As a Iunior he managed the varsity basketball team and guided the destinies and fostered the welfare of this group of huskies A iii through a most strenuous season. His efficiency in the position will be testified by many and to console, urge, counsel and guide a group of healthy students and still be efficient, is the height of achievement. Ioe by no means confined his activities to one sphere of endeavor, but attained a note- worthy proficiency in other and not so strenuous pursuits. Many an admiring audience breathed a sigh of envy as Ioe set out to conquer the heart of fair damsel. CA few of them were even better than fairj. As to his success in this line let the dinners and auto rides which were his reward, bear mute testimoney. Our one wish is that Ioe may instill in his business associates the same degree of admi- ration that was his while on the hill and may the success be enjoyed during his college career crown his efforts in after life. -img . ,-5 95 E !53H5 it Exif- 52.1 anceship marks the true friend.

It is rumored that he lost out by a hair to Tom Goonan. But with his characteristic perserverance Ned is quickly remedying the defect. 4 Among the Lowellites, Ned also enjoys an enviable reputation and it is rumored that he is soon to run for Mayor of the Spindle City. We will vouch that he is eminently qualified for this in one respect-he is already an adept at kissing the babes and is prac- tically assured of the women's votes. As a thespian, Flang-dang could always be depended upon to afford spontaneous, . weighty, and entirely unsuspected humor-much to the delight of the audience and Ned, but to the great discomfort of his fellow artistes, and, need we say, to the great detriment of the stage drops and boards.

Among Holy Cross' educational productions, there have been wits,-and lack wits, of course,-senators, great business men, editors, poets, writers, trolley-car conductors, cab-drivers, doc- tors, lawyers, and men of the cloth. But there is another rare species educed from the potency of the matter at the Cross- clever epigram-making cynics. Many aspire to the purple of that honor. But it is never thrust upon one, nor attained by guile. One must be born. And of all the subtle smoothies, that have ever strod on the campus, Al Forbes is by far the most famous. And deservedly so. Endowed with a natural propensity for satiric wit, driven by disparaging remarks on ' h the massivity of his brain cavity to careful cultivation of that faculty, he has attained a renown that has permeated the school and seeped even into the Freshman class. Al is famous. There is no getting away from that. There is not a senior who has not been saluted by Al, there is not a senior who is not on the best, of terms with Al. Blessed with a voice whose capacity has never been fully revealed fdue to the provisions against unseemly racket on the campusj, Al has more than once quieted a group of scoffers with a few well-chosen words. Well known to the authorities, he has neverthe- less had the pleasure of getting a Holy Cross sheepskin. Preferring the busy marts of men to the quiet nooks of study, he has nevertheless achieved scholastic success. A 98 Q.. .V . .nfs .Lim 6-'Jig i, ,WJ H M, 1osEPH GERARD FoY, AB. , QUINCY, MASS.

Mornings he could be seen Winding his way slowly up the back of the hill, placidly tramping through two or three feet of snow. Evenings before exams inevitably found him wandering about Loyola in search of someone who knew the matter,', and could unravel some knotty dilliculty which was perplexing him. As a peace-oFfer- ing, he rarely failed to offer a pocketful of crackers or some other coveted delicacy from Mrs. Hardingls pantry. Pitter was star punter on the Varsity until in senior year he decided to tackle pre-med instead of football. l This robust youth takes everything as it comesg smiles at ' every difficulty, and laughs quietly at what others would call trouble. When he speaks, there is a wistfulness about his face and a twinkle in his eye that make it difficult to tell whether he is serious or joking. And if you try to kid Pitter, you will soon discover that he is always one ahead of youf, To wish Pitter success is really superfluous, for from his qualities we know that suc- cess is his destiny. asetimuear ww 'KQSSI 2.14-' y it i. iff a A M wi. - t al' T' 5 V f 1' - jFigiT'ni 'MH W f +f-ASN -lli3Q3i' I . . a 7hz:sziaiamw.':S,,:::jaSiB'-mfr, . y U ji K, 9-1 ad.!5IwQnKi,:lALA.-Ima f ., , , , ' x:rqhl1xe1I4.' , 3 ' f I . , Y 121' 'Q ' ,gf ' h ., ,w,QhuifM.-w,i.g.,.,,3- V1 - , V i it .14 I , . f ' -,,...,,v,,,,. , -231 e ', , lf . qmegl' 'A' ' .

Four years ago Bobby, way out in the Middle West, turned yearning eyes toward the seacoast and, being a man of impulse, set out on the long trek to Massachusetts. Arriving at the Heart of the Commonwealth, he found a hearty welcome, for his fame had preceded him and one with the talents which Bob possessed is welcomed anywhere. In the years which he has spent here, that talent has ever revealed new capabilities. l A natural athlete, Bob immediately made the Frosh ball club 1 and proved so able that to preserve his genius in this line, he was prohibited from competing in other varsity sports. How- ever, such a restriction could not stop Bob from aiding the class teams in their bitter intramural battles and it is to him that 131 owes much of its success. Short space indeed is two hundred words in which to portray Bobbie's scintillating per- sonality. We know of no one so individual-and so genuinely and generally popular. Not only on the campus, but even throughout the city, Bobby Friederichs is a familiar name. This is perhaps due to the fine pitching which is his contribution to champion- ship baseball teams, but we like to think that it is because of Bobby himself, and we main- tain that if he never played ball, his name would be just as well known-his circle of friends would be as great. We are eternally grateful to Ohio for lending us Bobby-one of her finest sons. 101 fucks-cf 41, ,. .- ,I .,:1.4afw-1 , f -we 7 ... s, Baia 'ny' ,if H' esac.-.-.-5 xfrmtil..

Worcester has sent many a famous son to Holy Cross, walk- ing up the long, winding hill, morning after morning, in search of the hidden stocks of learning. But rare indeed has been the Worcesterite who could-if he would-boast of one of the widest circles of friends ever possessed by any Cross man. Charlie Friel has been a figure in the class of 1931 ever since the halcyon days of Freshman. On the football field and in the narrowed held of class and club activities, he has carried on worthily the tradition established by other graduates in his family. Not only do the resident students know him well and admire the qualities that have brought him ofhces of responsibility in the various years, but the entire Worcester Under- graduate Club pointed to him with justifiable pride as one of the leaders of that large group. He has cut for himself a definite and enviable place in the vast, frozen mosaic of memories, which the long days and years have built and colored for '31, P 102 1 ,- I if. . :':f:...' iii 3i:..j?'ii L: 3 l 1 1 ' A ' - 55 xiii-F' -fi-K fJ.'P.'.Z.?

In keeping with the tradition that every graduate is a man of culture and refinement, we present Bill Fryer-than whom no one better personifies that noble tradition. This education is a process which never varies, yet is never monotonous, gen- tlemen are always appreciated, though they may be scarce. Although he has never played on the Varsity teams, his record in the class athletics is something to be envied. Foot- ball, basketball, and soccer were the fortunate recipients of his services and rumor has it that off campus he slides down a mean alley when it comes to nine-pins. But even more para- mount is the quality, bordering on genius, which Bill has for making friends. We know of no one on the campus who is so generally liked. That this gift is deserved can not be disputed, for as a friend, Bill is unsurpassed. Remarkably soft of voice, unassuming and industrious, he will go far in the battle of life. With the passing of this class we realize that Bill has been the truest and best of com- rades. The days of preparation are over, no more classes to attend, or exams to take, or slips to answer. In the unknowable future we are confident that B111 will accomplish deeds worthy of a son of Holy Cross. 103 J 1 1' 1. i ., '51 1 H4-Ll' 'Q' 'lvl ,l' ii Fifi It 3-f,5P'g?

We are sure that, next to the lack of familiarity with the resident students, the worst aspect of what is commonly known as day-ducking, is the long climb up the not so gentle slope of Packachoag. That half mile of uphill is enough to take the sport out of any class and the mere thought of it is sufficient to spoil a night's sleep. Realizing these facts, Bill decided to overcome them and thus we find him daily speed- ing up the grade in any of several cars. That problem being solved, Bill turned his attention to scholastic affairs and solved their mysteries just as effectively and just as easily. For proof we merely state that he took the accounting course and still preserved his good nature. To merely take the aforementioned course is worry enough, but when Bill plowed through the labyrinthine ways of trial balance, debit, bankruptcy and corporation problems, and still came up smiling, any nemesis that might possibly have been waiting for him withdrew in baflied defeat. Although not extremely active in extra-curricular organizations, Bill manifested such a steady interest in the class and school that his popularity was always high. Quiet almost to the point of self-effacement, he did not look for any honors, but yet found himself always in the limelight of success. 104 ' Y .,, J, V if W :f..s:,...,,... tug-..:..- ' Q em-ne-'-me -.nvmeyw-,M , .r ' ff' if I-lf' at K., N' F . , .,.,. i. ,g ,- Yuki, MY V Wm-, FRANCIS IOSEPH GARRITY, PH.B.

Iamaica Plain sent us a winner when this quiet, but capable, athlete entered Holy Cross. In Fresh- man year his prowess was immediately evident with the baseball and football teams. Fol- lowing years found him a regular feature of Iack Barry s nine as catcher, while his Senior year was climaxed with the captaincy of our Purple gridders. Memories of his feats at the Harvard Stadium and Fenway will live long in our recollection. Along with this athletic makeup of Hank's there were many other features, just as important, which won him many friends. A fine strain of humor, which has enlivened many a situation characterized his general demeanor, and above this there ran also a thoughtfulness arid generosity which showed the real manhood better than anything else. - , A , f ' M' -1-'gvnpv-Q--+Q-wrqw i .5 '1.'-ilfiivfllw-eric:-,f A .-rm-rp? fn an A.-gan . -fvf2J'- 3-il 1 ,, can-..q,....,...-. fl f r i C 3 5 .. l in 1: 5 yi il ll 25 a . .,3. ff .,,, , 4... sn V, it if' V if , J f 5.

This is only one of the many toasts we could render to our Tom who has been so prominent and well-liked by everyone that we could Fill this book with his feats. That Tom is a great football player, is admitted by all. But tough breaks seem to have played an outstanding part in his career as an athlete supreme. W'hen not practicing football himself, he was teach- ing the Crusader Cubs the gentle art of our football system. He had to lift the Freshmen from the realms of high school football and show them a new and far superior system of the game. Football is by no means the only thing that can be talked about While reviewing Tom's four years on the Hill. As chairman of the Ticket Committee, he was responsible for a great part of the success of the Iunior Prom.

His outstanding good-nature and nonchalant air are characteristic of the way he treated everybody and everything.

This type never does anything to make one think unpleasantly of them and merit thereby universal friendship. Andy was the class' exemplar of this type. Nothing he did or said grated on our exam-irritated nerves. He had quietness so imbued in his nature that we heartily recommend him as a salesman for all things that are silent from blackboard erasers g X to rubber heels. Milf, ln studies Andy restrained himself in a manner befitting his character by remaining in the high seventies and eighties. This kept him from blazing forth unnaturally on the honor- roll or Flaming out with equally unseeming notoriety in the lurid brilliance of the Hunk list. Hence we see that even here he showed his self-effacement. ' Andy's peculiar ability was the capacity for cramming an exam on the way to School, an accomplishment that takes on mountainous proportions when we consider the fact that Andy passed those exams. This model of all that is calm and restful tells us he is headed for the classroom as his field of future strife. W'e hope that he will serve as a good model so that the younger generation will be moved to make this a less clamorous world in which to live. ,,.,..fs 5 110 is 2.

A quiet, gentlemanly chap, this Paul from Marlboro, and one whom while we may not have known him too well out of ' l class, still very strongly made his presence known once within its confines. One sensed in talking with him that here was a man of many parts, and when the occasion arose, as it often did in the course of our four years, this impression was quickly verified, for there was forthwith displayed not only modesty and refinement, but a decided intelligence and confidence in I i what he believed. Paul always had a retiring, yet friendly air about him, and during the two years of his living in at the college those who enjoyed his companionship realized the value of what it means to have a cheerful and helpful friend. A clever fellow, yet not an intellectual snob, he was one who mixed well, and for whom our regard grew proportionately as we knew him. An excellent student, Paul won not only high marks, but our admiration for his brains as well, being a direct contrast to the dull grind who also wins high marks, but shows nothing intellectually in back of them. VVith the respect of his classmates as indicative of what future years will also show, we expect to hear more from this son of Holy Cross. 111 1 l EDWARD DANIEL HALLORAN, A.B. TORRINGTON, CONN.

Fame is of brittle material, it breaks easily, is shattered some- times by the slightest blow, is shivered into shards of flimsy beauty. But the fame of Ed is of more durable material. Tested by the years since Freshman, it has grown in strength and flourished to the fine Hower of Senior. Nor has that fame been groundlessg success and the concomitant glory have been founded on the most fundamental of virtues, brilliance of intelligence, loyalty, and friendship. A product of Regis Hall, the scourge of our Freshman, Ed developed through the embryonic first year into the more grand epoch of Sophomore, to burst into the pre-med splendor of Iunior, and hnally to rest on the laurels of Senior. His friends were numberless and ranged from the ascetic lack Kent to the more bacchicly-inclined Walter Mclnerney. Ed,s prowess in the scholastic Held was not alone confined to scientific investigation. 1 Applying the same faculties that brought success in the biology and chemistry courses, Ed took up English and American literature under Mr. Drumm and achieved the same heights. There have been many fellows in the class who were friends or acquaintances of each other, but in the Final analysis, Ed ranked highest in the estimation of more than one member of '31. Bearing up under the irritating sensibilities of every day life, Ed stands marked as a steady, reliable, well-liked gentleman. 112 RICHARD FRANCIS HALLORAN, A.B. ' WORCESTER, MASS.

With his own home V ,Q situated on the campus, he had all the advantages of living 1 near the college, yet he never had to play hare and hounds with night watchmen over the embankments of Packachoag. At ' the same time he lived half way up the hill and any day- student considers that a blessing. As regards his extra-curricular activities, we record at the f present time a failure as a politician in the Worcester Club. That undoubtedly would have been remedied had there been any female vote in said club, because Dick's curls could get the girls. And that's more than an idle rhyme, as many a fair nymph of Worcester and vicinit will testif .

With other members of the township he came in every day to seek the fount of wisdom. Naturally he was not able to spend much time with us, yet in what time he did spend we discovered that we should have liked to have ' seen more of him. Good fellowship was one of his most pre- A dominating traits. It beamed forth from his whole person and, ' we assure you, Arthur had a superabundance of person. His humor came in the form of slams Though many of us were the frequent objects of said Hslamsf, a son of Maynard was the most frequent victim. As for Art's ill humor we can ' say nothing. Memory recalls no instance of that in him. With Kerrigan he formed a .duet which could effectively disturb the quiet of any room in the Library. Every noon hour would find these two distinguishing and sub-d1st1n- guishing usotto vocen with a far-off gaze that bespoke the deep concentration of a true scholastic mind. Art must also come in for some praise as a student. No complete list of his marks is available at the present time.

It is safe to say that no one who has succeeded at Holy Cross has been as easy-going and as carefree as Ioe has been during the past four years. He has newer been known to worry and that is certainly an accomplishment. His scholastic record is a credit to him and hc has made it such without burning the midnight oil and without becoming a member of the dawn patrol. As a Freshman he was the enterprising manager of a dance orchestra which was never hired. In Senior year, how- ever, he became the manager of the combined Musical Clubs and managed them with as much efhciency as could be expected of any impressario, whose days and nights were filled with the management of temperamental artists. I The class elected him chairman of the Senior Ball knowing that he could be relied upon to conduct it successfully, and that his former executive experience would enable him to make it the climax of our social life at the college. Ioe always has been an optimist, and wherever he went, whatever he ate, no matter what show he saw, he always declared when he returned to the college that he had a fine time, a wonderful dinner or that he had seen a Hgreati' movie. It was some time before we realized that he was always satisfied and that his and our ideas on what was ugoodf' fine, and wonderful, did not coincide. 120 5 fir fl'- tg L - -f Z K gp in k , Qrfc, r 1.4 lin r 9' A 1 fri .,-re 2, .

These few words tell the secret of his success. In them lies the formula for such a meteoric ascent to fame. That White Lily products could arise in the midst of Pittsburgh requires a stretch of the imagination I concede, but that they do actually have their orgin there I also concede. Between week-ends you may find Paul about the campus and he himself, will extoll to you the unparalleled excellence of VVhite Lilyi' hams and sausages. And then you, too, will he forced to admit that next to her stalwart sons, Pitts- ' ' burghas pride is the sign and symbol of the White Lily. For four years President of the Pittsburgh Club, the first year his choice being unanimous and thereafter challenged by another worthy son of semi- darkness, Paul has represented gloriously the type of virile young manhood nurtured beside the stagnant streams Alleghany and Monongahela. However, it is very much a matter for dispute whether Paul is more familiar with the twists and turnings of these betrothed streams as they near each other to be wedded and go on together as the great Ohio, than he is with the windings of the road to Boston, and, if familiarity really breeds contempt I would be inclined to say that Paul has a wholesome respect for these riyers 3 while he despises the Boston road. He probably has another very good reason for dxslilcing the road to Boston-however, that reason being that it is so long IH its znterposition between Some-er, Boston and the Heart of the Commonwealth. 121 UVA f ti J .

And if we all could be as sure of an unruflled domesticity as Tommy is, the matrimonial waters wouldn't look nearly as cold and forbidding as they do. For one thing he has peerless taste in the choice of life partners, for another he has a business head to make a go of any proposition, and last, but most important of all, he plays a faultless game of bridge.

Ed Keenan is Gotham's pride and in recognition of his patent abilities Holy Cross and particularly the class of 1931 early took Ed to their metaphorical hearts. Honor upon honor has come flowing in upon him. His connections with the authorities were more than exceptionally remarkable and his value to the class as a prognosticator of vacations is a byword. His genial and gentle wit, and that distinctly contagious laugh, topped off what had always been one of the most dynamic per- sonalities on the Hill. On the platform of class activities, leading the singing of the roaring stands to a thun- dering climax at football games, tenderly inducting the Freshmen into the harshnesses of college life and the ways of gentlemen, Ed with a subtle savoir-faire and an insouciant sang froid was the marvel of his mates. In the sphere of social life, there was none to equal his untiringness in pursuing the gods of mirth and humor. He was everything a true Holy Cross man should be. 131 I - .1 .

For four years Tom has been with us, quiet, unknown to hoi polloi, g-oing his own path steadily and with increasing success. Neglecting the picayune details of the orderly routine at the Cross he has turned rather to the larger considerations of life on the Hill. His short, pithy comments have been marvels of perspicacity and wisdom. Unfazed by the most pretentious bluff, he has quietly examined, pondered, and passed judgment and it was the rare occasion that time did not bear out his pronunciamentos. Interested in the welfare of the Holyoke Club, he has ever participated eagerly in all its activities. I , . His efforts, always well-spent, were the bright spots of many an evening s meetings of extra-curricular clubs. Possessing one -of the finest sets of copies of extinct philosophy examinations, he has called more than one question for perspiring and slightly frightened lesser lights to their advantage and his 'own-piling up thereby an enviable scholastic J record. e I 3 3 l ,Il 1 Ahiwm.-.mf Zi- . :..,E,,. 4 3 54 i I el l S iz -- 2 ll. la if 1 Q .

The double personality of Dr. Iekyll and Mr. Hyde, one of Z. the most vivid characters of Hction, we find reincarnated- abeit not so notoriously-in the familiar personage of lack Kent. Not that Iack's life was a parodoxical series of good and evil, but he combines the opposite characteristics of poet and dreamer with the less glamorous activities of a pre-med grind. For further proof may we also call attention to the fact tic studv, return to a room shared with no less a character ' . . . Lrg-?t'T' than .-Xl Leone and, completely prescinding from scholastic matters, enter wholeheartedly into those midnight councils in which the blood-curdling mating call first found existence. Moreover, it was another one of Iaclfs individual activities to spend the daylight hours exploring the whys and Where- fores of what mal-:es a rabbit go-only to return and compose some of the daintiest and most tender lyrics which ever graced the intellectual pages of the Purple. And again, the mysterious Mr. Kent would spend his afternoons in the sealed sanctuary of the Library- although it was well known that in Loyola he never acted behind closed doors! It is scarce wonder then that we are loath to part with a personality so individual, so unusual and so pleasing. To wish him success is almost superfluous, for anyone who so thoroughly mastered the mysteries of miotic and mitotic divisions as did Iack doesn't need success-he has it. 134 IOHN FRANKLIN KENT, A.B. i New BRITAIN, CONN. that lack would, after a day of most conscientious and idealis- 1 . ,J 'f . ,A ..,-49-v 14.37 . -fb. wwnfiz-4rnrmwv:,,Lr4hm9m',f,fv,,,,,, ,fh ,JN - ' -P V-vsugwm --.-g.,,g1..,g p -. ,,-, in W l o ' 5 r k I u .il l 4. ! -- f'--: -'---'-14.1.-ff'rf-wflg.-:g..-.v,-..,-.gf .,,,w,.',,,.,, ,.,'4, ,-,.:,,, it 'fn' -P' - -'L in -i2-- vHlwinmxr,vu9-x- r..-515-,..3,N. ,1- .fs ii, -we ,,:- H ',., I .W-.,,,.-5:,,,?,,,T,g.A,,n,,EA .tl D L' PATRICK EDWARD KERRIGAN, A.B.

There are fellows whose very presence impresses us greatly -they perform no action, utter no word, nevertheless, from their being seems to emanate an aura of substantiality and de- pendability-they are the type that one instinctively wishes to have around when something of importance is to be done. Pat certainly merits a place in this category. Silent, almost to the point of taciturnity, never forcing his views upon any one, nevertheless, when he spoke he spoke words of momentous import. And the splendid grades which Pat dragged down ,. M -'VI in the various brain-perplexing phases of philosophy lent of- ficial recognition to his mental acumen. Not alone in scholastic activities did Pat shine, his prowess in athletic endeavors, espe- cially basketball, were well known, particularly by sorrowing opponents who saw Pat sink baskets with monotonous regularity. Gnly for the fact that Pat commuted daily from far-off Clinton and could not devote sufficient time to athletics he would certainly have gained a position on the varsity basketball team. 'Pat would have attained great popularity had he not possessed these gifts for a man with Pat's qualities has the key to the regard and admiration of all. Possessed of an even disposition, an easy grace of manner and a sincere consideration of others, Pat has merited all that popularity which is his. All in all, he is a man whom Holy Cross may well be proud to send into the world as an dopted son. 135 FRANK IOSEPH KINNEY, IR., A.B.

His gift of mimicry never failed to please. His ready participation in whatever savored of the unusual soon licliecl his cherubic countenance for Frank was never far from the scene of activities. Nor were his efforts purely local, for though not a Harvard man and scarcely a musician, on several occasions Frank glibly convinced the Stadium gatekeepers that he was both.

In his guise of impromptu banker, Frankis timely financing was responsible for many of his classmates, social successes.

The labyrinth- ' l ine ways of Worcester' are no maze to him and the fevered pace of evenings in Marshall's and Hickey's was his speciality. On campus he was as well known, although most of his extra- curricular activity was confined to a skillful guidance of the . refectory elevators and an occasional game of more than skill- ful tennis. However, this schedule was not due to a lack A of interest, but to the rigorous demands of the pre-med course. His perseverance in learning all about the home life of the hydra and intricate experi- ences of the fruit dot is manifested by the successful completion of this course instituted for the sole purpose of Wearing out all but iron men. After finishing at the Cross, Neil intends to continue at Georgetown Med and from the way he has hurdled every scholastic barrier up here, there is no doubt but that his success in the Washington school is assured. After that-we can but hazard a guess, although it does not seem remiss to fell confident that when the nezrt assignment of anti- toxin is rushed by dog sled to Nome, Dr. Labbe will there to administer it. 137 l ROBERT FRANCIS LALLY, A.B. , MILFORD, MASS..

Here we have the man of contrasts and paradoxes . . . not literally, but actually. This man came from the far reaches of Milford but four short years ago, and in the interim has changed so radically that one wonders what has become of our Freshman Robert. To gaze at this youth now one intuitively senses that here is a metropolite, born and bred. To perceive the quiet assurance and poise, the settled mind and purpose which now characterize him constrain us to exclaim with dear f Virgil, mimbile diem! This is not the lad we knew when the Fa , i battlernents of O'Kane rang with our youthful exuberance. And like Virgil our sentiments are of admiration! In point of humor, Bob is a paradox walking before our eyes: quiet by nature, yet erupt- ing in spontaneous laughter anytime, any place, and again possessed of a Mona Lisa humor that arises to the surface frequently in subtle witticisms. In point of friendships he never forced an association yet attracted many, and won the permanent friendship of those he made his intimates. Not an athletic sort as many of the sons of Milford at Holy Cross, still a prowess was displayed even in this line . . . Bob is planning a repetition of Bobby Iones' feat of 1930. Studies never were his nemesis and withal he was not their blind devotee, social activities never overwhelmed him, but then he did manage to get around, he reaped not a demerit in three years, yet contributed a gentlemanly share toward the establishment of the new system, he changed in four years from the undecided schoolboy to a settled man with definite plans for the future. 138 IOHN RICHARD LANE, A.B.

His friends, Qnor Iohnny for that matterlb, Will never forget the dress shirt that was cleaned for Linden Lane and remained in the P.

As a matter of fact, we seldom see him studying, either, but he manages to get some amazing marks. He's not only a handsome devil, he actually has brains. To date he has written no less than three novels that beggar description. They will remain, unfortunately, among the great unpublished manuscripts of 'our day.

WORCESTER, MASS. Worcester Club 1, 2, 3, 4g Sodality 1, 2, 3, 45 In a class containing within itself members noted either for excessive verbiage or coldly reserved demeanor, Iohn is a . striking example of the truth of the adage, In medio stat zfirzus. In the arena of the classics Iohn has shown himself to be a thoroughly able student, his expressions on those sub- jects, always Worthwhile, have been of a most scholarly length: but in the lists 'of the more effervescent mental activities, he as has been observingly quiet. Not content with the compulsory studies of Latin and Greek in freshman and sophomore years he has pursued those Helds of learning with genuine interest in his last two years, enjoying admirable marks. Of an athletic bent he has been the main- stay of more than one day student intramural-or just plain pick-up-team. In the class- room and in the freer regions of personal self-development he has been Well worthy of emulation. Iohn is the student you usually heard ushushingi' the noisy ones in the classroom when the professor was toiling through the mazes of a particularly hazy Cand, alas, often boringj difficulty in the philosophy. Iohn was at I-Ioly Cross with a purpose and no one, will-be able to smile more happily with a Sense of duty well done, at graduation. Iohn s Smile, unique and attracting, betokens in his character a fundament of subtle, saving humor that-appearing infrequently-was all the more appreciated thereby on a dark day. 141 ROBERT AUGUSTUS LYNCH, A.B.

Known to every member of the senior body by name and known of by everyone in the school, Robbie has carved for himself one of those well-known niches in the memories of his mates. Oh yeah!

Even the modest have a heart, a few pet prides. I-Iis heart lies nearest to the glories of Manchester, his pride is in its glorification. Whenever we think of lim, a picture comes to our mind of a nonchalant individual, with a slightly super- cilious look' adorning his lips, sauntering through each class- room, much as a feudal lord passing through the huts of his serfs, condescendingly, yet highly interested. Such austerity and dignity of character completes and aug- . ments a modesty that is charming, a silence that is winning. But besides he is a gentleman, cultured yet capable of delight- ful informality, a fine fellow whose magnanimity is proverbial, whose views are intense and whose specialty is companionship. Well versed in his attainments he is our concep- tion of a real gentleman and a true friend. Subtle courtesies so characteristic of him makes parting at graduation a bit less happy. Our recollections of him shall always be pleasur- able, and with each such thought we fondly hope that this brotherly love, together with our wishes for success, may be harbored in Iim forever. Aloof from the multitude, Iim, with reserved composure, nevertheless has written on the scroll of his friends, many an outstanding name in the class of '31.' Gf a quiet demeanor, he has achieved a portion of intellectual success that has made him one of the more prominent members of that sadly battered group, the pre-med men. 143 if . ,f LUKE 1oHN MACKEN, 1R.,PH,B. y . PITTSFIELD, MASS. - 5. 4. Q ,L Berkshire Club 2, 3, Dance Chairman 43 Soelality 23 Aquinas Circle. li Endowed with a subtle sense of humor and more than an 4 ordinary share of irony, Luke came to us from Georgetown in W nl Mila his second year. From the start he was extraordinary and till ,A :ng the end he remained and still remains that way. It is an asset in Luke's case this peculiar position amongst his classmates. ' ujliwlifa He dominates his unique estate with the sophistication of a , lp!-Silt? ' 13' LH' smoothly reared gentleman. H Ever ready in wit and always on W the lookout for chances to .display his ware of good times, he A lends life to most of the gatherings in which he is found. L 4 Aside from this spirit of raillery, Luke has a gift of being able F .... 3 to get hold of and subject the most difficult of studies in a sur- prisingly short time. Some people term this cramming Qhow hateful a word and how untrue in the picture it drawsb. Luke's cramming consists of ensconsing himself on a well-pillowed bed with lamp-lightings suitable and not too glar- ing, and leisurely turning pages on pages of the dry and unyielding matter that is the lesson which he must conquer before 9.00 the next morning. Such a student as Luke belies the statement that cramming is of no earthly use other than to get a good mark, and that the matter crammed is quickly dispelled from the ucrammerlsv brain. Often in conversation, Luke will pop up with the weirdest discourses on phases of studies long since passed from the annals of memory and dead in the dust of the past. Speaking of the dust of the past, have you ever heard 'or read Lukeas masterpiece that leaped forth from the pages of the Purple. If you haven't read it, it's a masterpiece. 144 GEORGE FRANCIS MADAUS, A.B. WORCESTER, MASS. Wmffffff' Club 1, 2, 3, 43 Sodalizy 2, 3, 43 Freshman Reception 45 PATCHER Stag. In every class there is a group of students who seem to over- come scholastic barriers with the greatest ease-a group who take studies almost carelessly and yet so effectively that they are always in the honor division of the class-a group which is the envy of all their classmates. In this category, George wins one of the higher offices and he merits the place because of a freedom from worry over textbooks and an ability to be always prepared in the classroom. It is even reputed that he can pre- pare for a psychology exam within the course of a few hours. If this be true, and we do not doubt it, it is a feat, may we explain to the uninitiated, which is more than a mere accom- plishment, it is awe inspiring, it is nearly miraculous! Thus when the conclusion is drawn that George is endowed with more than the usual amount of intellectual acumen, there are few who will contest the statement. Combined with this natural ability, George is the possessor of a personality which makes him one of the foremost members of the Worcester Club. His interest in club affairs and h' h l ' d t'n club activities ranks him as an invaluable member of the school. It is epincon ucig , is because of these qualities that, we know, Holy Cross and in particular the class of 31 will miss George Madaus when he leaves the Hill to further the success which has rewarded his scholastic endeavors. 145 znaalc xsis..wamv sb'ammawww4 1.9 ' Q ...s Q. - ..

All of us were familiar . g with Bill in his capacity as news-vendor-if not in the guise R of subscribers, surely as readers. On his rounds with the A V black-book it is rumored that Bill amassed a collection of sob ,,m,,s5! i v . F i'-' :r-11, . s2s.1l,m' i N. stories that would put even a Broadway Panhandlerv to ' shame. But Bill bided his time and usually won outg a feat if which in this barren field is certainly a tribute to his business capabilities. A veteran of three seasons as a varsity trackman, Bill has contributed nobly to Holy Cross' measure of success in the track world. Always a consistent miler outdoors and a valuable member of the two-mile relay indoors, he climaxed his career and mani- fested his versatility by captaining the cross-country team in his Senior year. To please some two hundred odd fellows of varied tastes and apinions requires a diplo- macy and tact beyond the pale of the average fellow. But Bill's efficient management of our memorable Iunior Prom justified his choice with unanimity of opinion. This alone will be sufficient to keep Bill fresh in our memory for years to come. We may express our regard for Bill by saying, in all sincerity, that it is for the' purpose of renewing acquaintance with his type that others return to their five-year reunions. 146 W IGSEPH PERKINS MAHER, A.B.

He could always be depended upon to carry the banner of truth in a bull session either against a roommate or with him, depending upon what that roommate held. Ioe was seldom found in error, since he rarely spoke Without thinking about what he was going to say. This habit militated against efferves- cence, but it certainly made for exactness. ,His good humor, his ability to perceive values, his seriousness and gift of persistence Will go far toward success in medicine, as it had been invaluable in making him a friend of Whom to be proud. 147 an, l . !w ' WILLIAM FRANCIS MAHER, A.13.

Thus gifted it was not surprising that he gathered honors throughout his four-year sojourn at Holy Cross. Yet in Fresh- man the class of '31 nearly lost this gifted young man for in 1,1 ..,. 1. 1 keeping with his success as a poet, he refused all tonsorial min- istrations, wore long, Howing ties, and had not his pals, Croteau and Bergin, showed him the error of his ways, he would have g left school to follow the elusive Muse, Erato. But if he could not have the one, he would have the other, even though the if latter Muse were but second fiddle to his favorite. Accord- . ingly, Iohn invoked the aid of Euterpe, bought a trombone, practiced assiduously, and finally joined the band. Upon his efforts we refrain from discussion, but he did look fine in his purple cape. However, that Iohn was a grind is not to be inferred from any Studiousness pro- fessed, for he always found time to attend the proms and social events of the year, both within the school and within the ranks of Worcester's 400. Perhaps our fondest mem- ory will be of Iohn as the proud owner of Lizzie, which with asthmatic sputtering labored s-o gallantly in conveying many of the day scholars to the Hill. Deep in the recesses 'mf O'Kane we heard the gasping efforts of his '18 Ford as Iohn coaxed and wheedled it up Linden Lane and we mourned her passing when at last Lizzie,' gave up the ghost. 150 , ti' .., -. if?-' , 5 'I -Si 'f 7'f'fT l'?f27'!Q1 !'i -'T 'l'l ?U!'f'l fQiE'!Srr'21 ish-lik' 'wut u., ,s 5 ., ,3 wt. -,ga - '11-'2 .'

This disposition f was created by an ingenious mind ever ready to produce a code of morality too severe for observance. I-Ie is stern and . austere, perhaps too much enamored of an ascetic, harsh sub- I limity. I-Ie is indeed reserved, perhaps even shy-from the character of his mind-profoundly meditative, and from the character of his life a trifle sequestered. But he lacked neither proper boldness-nor was he deficient in a reasonable self- conhdence towards that in the world which rested upon a basis at once justified and glorious. Affability is his virtue, for his friendship was neither difficult to attain nor once attained, insecure of possession. With the riches of youth about him, he would condescend to grasp with a propensity that terrified, the charms of those studies that were to mold and shape noticeably, his mind for the world to which his graduation would admit him. In spite of his austerity we Hnd great pleasure in his company. With his ready witti- cisms and happy smile he inures himself tothe effects of gloom so successfully that his effervescent good spirits have become .contagious-for which we are properly grateful. Sturdily self-reliant, boldly unafraid in the knowledge of ultimate success,.has hewn for Si an eminence indicative, not only of the esteem in which he 1S held by his fellows, but also of fine underlying character. 151 I l W y v .i',.

Needless to say, Bob usually knew the matter though it was rumored about that a few times it was dawn before his triumphant cry was heard. Be that as it may, many faltered and fell by the wayside, but it seems that Mitch was planted neither among thorns nor in fallow ground.

Four years at Holy Cross have led us to the belief that it is a i part of the Divine plan to keep a balance in this world. There- fore, when we found in the day student's room a fellow like Fran O,Reilly wearing a yellow tie with a green shirt and others such as Kerrigan and I-Ieimer with wrinkled vests, we knew that there ought to be a balance for these gross sartorial l imperfections. It was after a short search that we found the balance for these blemishes in George Malloy. George's neat dress might have been due to the fact that he was a shoe salesman on Saturdays. Then, too, he may have been attempting to snare some fair Bertha with the mere ex- ternal beauties of this world. That last deduction need not be taken ex catbedra. It was rather hard to catch George at anything like that. We don't deny, however, that he might be caught. Despite the fact that George was one of our business men Qhe always had something on footj he took the education cou.rse. We do wish him success, but feel that if well- shined and wel a hard time paying his Alumni dues. l-heeled shoes mean anything in this world of strife, George will not have 157 ' Q ' '..Il.,QIC.42Sn, ' , ' ' Q' U ' i JL- V-.Jw::aii41f:.i.s3g,TR'i1'.5BeYi iIgif?5iBi1ciiiiF-ff1-Kino1lB'4lHMi!SfJ1:L'i'i.f,:::g2.44..Lm:11!1'7:iZLii23.,I ' '., 2 2 - , . .,.. gi . , -'-b ' Vi'-hi: swf' - Jtiu g ggv Lal ' Y. , 'Y N A B 1 IOHN 1osEPH MORGA , . .

His Hying fingers have made dull hours pleasant for the band. For being a member of that famous group of travellers he strove to please them on the piano as he strove to please the crowds in various stadia with his cornet. The Library staff has counted Iohn among its members for several years, and has recently given him the duty of holding the fort at times when nearly everyone else is at home or downtown or at the utalkiesv in the Auditorium. Yet, in spite of all this time-consuming work, Iohnny has been able to charm the ears of his fellow-debaters on occasion, and succeeded in Iunior in carrying off the prize in the McMahon Historical Essay Contest.

I. Here, however, the resemblance between the Morgans ended and to even a casual observer the reasons for the dissimilarity between Tom and the highly- touted Roughhouse are quite evident and need not be elaborated. Tom, residing in Fitchburg, joined the ranks of commuters and although subject to the travail of journeying the many miles each morning and night, he nevertheless found time to show a marked interest in things pertaining to school and to the class. Although a baseball player of more than average ability the fact that he resided so far from the school 'kept him from making more than a mild bid for the Varsity team. In other activities Tom was also handicapped by his rigorous role of day-ducker. However, his eagerness in participating in all club activities manifested his admirable spirit. 1 H Tom will not be quickly forgotten by any of his friends for he has a personality which combines not only a jovial good nature, but also a sincerity which is most pleasing. f 159 .s . f :.

One of the most prominent Massachusetts schoolboy athletes, he came to Holy Cross with an impressive record and in his four years up here has materially augmented it. The number of titles he has held is too large for mere memory to retain, the number of records he has broken is still greater, and the number of points he has scored in competition for Holy Cross surpasses in amount the entire number of demerits acquired by the Senior class in the course of their four-year sojourn on Pakachoag. But his ability was not confined to track. George was also the class jester. Being endowed with a throat which was a cross between a harmonica and a steamboat whistle he interpolated speech or song with the weirdest noises ever issued from human being. A carefree nature, a boisterous good humor, we hail George Morin as the most colorful runner ever to wear spiked shoe. 160 ,Ha ,, ,,,. , -HN PHILIP IOSEPH MORRISON, A.B. NASHUA, N. H.

France may have had Napoleon but the class of '31 has F rank and bows its head to no one. Who would have even dared to dream that in theilowly freshman who ascended Mount St. Iames some four years ago rested executive power, keen vision, intelligence par excellence, and a preponderous ability to attain his purpose. Yet there they were in all their potency and four years of college ilfe have served to bring them into actual reality. As manager of the band he has persevered through the con- sequent trials and tribulations to make it the best college band in the country. As equipment manager of the musical clubs ' he has been the power behind the stage who kept things running in such a smooth fashion. Indeed the personnel of the clubs would have been incomplete without him arid- to him we say, Well done thou good and faithful servant. s His chosen field is metallurgy and we are certain that his choice is a 'wise one for good metallurgists are at a premium in this age of steel. That he has mastered the B.S. course is sufficient proof of his intelligence for only the fittest survive.

Ioe was very quiet-quiet to the point of unobtrusiveness. lt was a difficult thing to know the inner fellow, but once known, that personality kept friends through the most trying circumstances. His presence in a room lent any session a charm, which, verging to the lightly humorous, was ever interesting. Ioe was the recipient of many a cross-Eire of banter, but he never waved the white flag, eventually turning the tables on his adversaries H His minor fames, of chess, playing tennis, handball and the like, made him an able fellow-Sportsman. As a friend he had no equal, there wasn't another man in the class who made and kept friendships with such vitality. Ioe has leanings toward teaching and was a star in that rather somnolent class -of pedagogy. His marks have ever attested to keenness of interest in the curriculum. Clubs, too, were in favor of much of his attention. V163 i 1 A my 'l 'X-41:5 '- 'ff.. .-'. J ' I .J 1 ,Q-'. , f , 1 I , 'f fi .1 ,': 4'.

On one extreme there weremany men who were quite outstanding and quite radical. The other extreme was marked by fellows whose reserve and dependability could always be expected. pg ' . This latter group was as important for the welfare of the whole J' class as the former because its steadiness counteracted and bal-S 'l ahced any unfeasible tendencies. It is in this category that Paul T 'i'1 McA'rdle took his place. Quiet almost to the point of self-ef- facement, he finished the four-year course still unknown to T ' T if ' ' ' many' of the resident students. His personality did not com- , 4 mand immediate attention, but his perseverance and the success which marked his efforts would win applause in any gathering. Q Paul's interest in extra-curricular activity is manifested by his presence with the musical clubs and in particular with the football band. The long practice sessions which this organization demanded, often kept Paul up on the Hill long after darkness had hidden the blemishes of South Worcester and hours after his day student comrades had returned home. Undismayed by this ordeal he persevered and proved one of the invaluables that made the band so highly commendable. Thus we find Paul manifesting the same dogged determination both in the classroom and in outside activity and in both cases we admire him for his success. l 168 4 as 13 l 5 1 CHARLES D. MCCARTHY, A.B. NORTH BROOKFIELD, MASS. Woreeslel' club l, 2, 3, 45 Soclality l, 2, 3, 43 Aquinas Circle 43 Class Basketball 3, 43 French Academy. Four years ago Brookfield, not to be outdone by other New England towns, delegated two of her finest to bolster the lists i of Holy Cross and in particular the class of nineteen thirty-one. Bart Sullivan-often erroneously confused with the track men- tor-and Charlie McCarthy daily travelled the long miles to the Heart of the Commonwealth, plunged whole-heartedly into the scholastic swim and then, as the evening shadows length- ened, wended their way home again to eager Brookfield. But alas, Bart, at the end of Sophomore, deserted his First love and yielded to the more immediate appeal of law training and Charlie was left to march alone. That briefly is the saga ot Bart and Charlie-the complete details take much longer to relate. In the first place we wish to call attention to the way Charlie participated in all scholastic activity. Despite the fact that he was handicapped by being a long-distance, day student and rnost of his free time was spent in travelling, Charlie always had a keen interest in matters ertainingito the school or to '31. This in turn was augmented by one of the P most cheerful natures it has ever been our pleasure to know. In the four years that he has been 'with us we can not recall even one incident in which Charlie was not his own happy Self, His Smile Should be a pass key to success, for such personality has no bounds. 169 .

His effectiveness in stopping all opposition was a great factor in the, Purple victories. And is there anyone who can forget the tackle he made on the openingplay of the Rutgers-Holy Cross game in 1928? I Such achievement is sufficient to make most people rather egotistical, but the bluff, boisterous nature which Iack possesses never took this tendency.

It may be said 'of Frank at the close of Senior year that he has rendered a noble accounting which is more than equal to the record which Ed leftiat Holy Cross. Frank was hard to know, but once a person was acquainted, he realized that in Frank he had made a friend, who would stand by in times of necessity and despair. Moreover, Frank was one to be admired for his versatility, not only in scholastic endeavor, but in all forms of extra-curricular activity. 'His interest ranged from the athletic to the aesthetic and in every branch he exhibited the same Hne degree of talent strengthened by a willingness to help. .Every publication and every important organization have so depended on his aid that he is now recognized as one of the stalwarts without whom not only the class, but the entire school would have suffered.

It was unusual to see Iack without a smile on his face. Yet for all this evidence of geniality he had a reserve that stood him apart from the general run of carefree spirits in his class. lack is a typical New Yorker and this is meant in the best sense possible. He is cosmopolitan in his ideas, and unlimited in experience. 1-Ie is the final word in what the leading city of America decrees. Iack is admired by all his friends and since his is not the nature that makes enemies it might be easier to say everyone values his friendship. I-Ie is always active and always will be till there is no more activity in himg that pep seems to be inexhaustible. Interested ineverything that Occurred in any way at all, Iack found him- self loaded in Senior year, with a swarm of extra-curricular activities that never once fazed him. 1-Ie enjoyed being a vital factor in making things move 'on the Hill and he almost approached the radical bounds of violent agitator. Things jumped fast. when they were propelled by the force behind the lean, tall youth from the heart of New York City. This seems to be a picture of activity, well, that is the only conception with which a person leaves Iack's presence, a memory that can never be eradicated. Iack, in his off moments, is a dreamer of dreams, a poet of ambitions, and a plotter of romantic courses in life. 178 V ' ' rf 'Li F 3 'fiwif 4 '5 ' - .. f 4'-K , X g3..1:':-. a .

Here is a quiet, unpretentious chap, the last of a long line of Mclnerney brothers whose fame adorn the traditions of old Holy Cross. There is hardly, a man in the College who has been less troubled or less troublesome than easy-going Mac. i Before ever coming up to the Hill, he had learned all about , the place from his brothers and it was therefore quite natural that he should quietly slip into place like a well-formed part of a delicate machine. It is an exceptionally well contained man that can see through the events of everyday routine and detect the often i obscured humor in life. Walt was always capable of this, even at times when others would have been temporarily despondent and gloomy. Surely such an optimistic outlook must have cost him some effort, but he was amply rewarded with an admirable good nature, which makes many friends and ,no enemies. To give the final touch to a well-rounded character, it is needless to say that Walt found time, apart from the demands of the strenuous economics course, to indulge his social instinct and enjoy the lighter of the fine things in life. We shall always remember him as a true type of all-around gentleman and fellow classman. 180 . ...wfx s ,Wg ii. .. l i ' v .a 1- --Mei, -:is uf i , vvva... , W.

Ioe has seen much of New England and, working in hotels, has been able to tell tales to which even the redoubtable Cy Cooney had to give the'palm. , , Gracing one of the departments at Denholmls, Ioe has had more contact with daily life than most of the fellows at school. Yet by combining the labors ot outside endeavor With scholastic strivings, he has marked himself for ultimate success. There is an old adage about a man being self-made. It may be true.

First, a laugh, and then, from nowhere would dash the chattering youth himself. So he entered Freshman year-and so he entered every room in Loyola-dashing about cheerfully with some sensational story or a startling tidbit of news. Yet, beneath this manifestation of exuberance and animal spirit, there was another Mac who possessed talent and insight. As proof may we offer his popular column in The Tomahawk, and the successful way he managed the Senior-Frosh reception this year. Such capability demands more than mere popularity, calls for more than mere play-boy characteristics. As a last word may we add, never be surprised at anything that Iohn does. He's that way. But if every action isn,t accompanied by a smile, rest assured that s-omething is wrong-for heas not that way. 182 l r 1 2- 5 N A FRANCIS CARROLL NASH, AB., 5 ROCHESTER, .NEW YORK - v s R S011'1lli'fJ' 1, 2, 3, Cfnmrl C01m11r'1ir'e -lg W.

His intellectual ability and grasp of the activi- ties and tendencies of college men gave him a most authorita- tive voice in expressing not only his ownuposition, but the posi- tion of scores of friends. Every publication and debating ' society havelong recognized that his views, always pertinent, ' cast vitally new angles on subjects under discussion. - In the classroom, Frank has been a most able student, .scholastic honors have come to him with remarkable facility and have been borne gracefully and modestly. Albeit a trifle impatient and hypercritical of what was, for him, stupid, the circles of his acquantainceship have grown daily and steadily. The developments of his character have been many-sided and self-revealing, with his interests ranging from the heights of aesthetics and philosophy to the very prosaic routine of schoollife. His versatility, moreover, is notihampered by any conhning lack of talent. His ability to defeat a regular on the tennis team or to dash off a fragile lyric in a miraculously short time may serve to exemplify this statement. Every Held of activity is opened to him by reason of this ability to conquer-and in every field he is welcomed. , 183 agar. if fs R -e.

At first his proteges were numerous, but one by one they weakened, and soon Des was the sole survivor. However, he was not discouraged, and never let a single day pass from September to Iune without going through the strenuous Daily Dozen he had prescribed for himself. 3 p We are confident that in the future no matter what obstacles may arise Don will brush them aside with the same calm equanimity he has shown during his stay at Holy Cross. 184 .g4s1waeg:gfr::s':.:ffy,,,,y,r,g,,::.,L A 4 , .

Tom chuckled his way most successfully through his years of stay here on the Hill and in stepping dreamily along has gath- ered in his train a host of memories of scholastic and social affairs, besides numbers of friends and acquaintances. His in- terests were bound by the walls of the classroom and, outside the arduous grind of the books, in establishing a reputation as a critic of shows and show-people and in perfecting his dancing ' which rumor tells is of the best. - ' ' I His quietness of demeanor and humorous viewpoint on life gave him a lightness of spirit that was the envy of his more stolid brethren.

No one who knows Bill would ever guess that he came from that notorious section of VVorcester, otherwise known as Grafton Hill. Of the quiet and reserved type, he was not very active in extra-curricular activities, but preferred to scintillate in the classroom, in which undertaking he met with no small degree of success. Greatly were we disturbed in our junior year, when we learned that Bill was taking a brief vacation because an illustrious detective, by the name of Tom Iudge, had solved the mystery and branded innocent Bill as the campus tire-slasher. However, after that little incident, Bill always made it a point to avoid any trouble with Oificer Iudge. Iust what Bill plans to do when he leaves the Hill is unknown, but from the manner in which he devoted himself to absorbing the principles of education in both Iunior and Senior, it Seems most likely that he is planning to enter the teaching profession. How- ever, possessed of an indomitable spirit, courage, and perseverance, Bill is bound to meet ' with success in whatever he undertakes. 187 'lk rm 1 fi 1, I , , , :,l , 1 . 3 P: 1. -,,, il a Cl 'nf 1 .4 ., L ,li I .

He climbed regularly every morning just before nine and descended at the earliest opportunity. All his spare time intervening was spent on the basketball court or in the library. Not that Iohn really devoured every book in the library. Like many others, he merely discovered that the Day Students, room did not provide the calm, stilly atmosphere one needs when studying how and why the cat chases the indis- criminate mouse. One of Iohn's specifically discriminating . notes was the way he shadowed Monsieur Perrault. This faith- 5 ful' following we can only explain by a love that passethlall 'C understanding or merely an unpaid loan. A Despite the fact that Iohn's profile would seem to deny that he is a gentile, we never found him ordering kosher food in the canteen-but likewise never discovered hirn eat- ing ham. The classical course was not ,wasted on our hero, either. He believed in adher- ing to Horace's golden mean when it came to marks, none were too high and nonenwere too low. If he can make the tired business man like him as much as we did, his success is as- sured. We can say at least that from us success is wished him.

VVe also 'Q ii distinguished Iohn as the one who came from Sta Iohn's. That ' little fact prevents us from complimenting him on his being on so many of the VVorcester students' committees. It is only when a St. Iohn's boy was not on a committee that we note the fact. To make this a really honest sketch it is necessary not to follow the usual method of picturing the subject as the brightest and merriest fellow in the class. Yet, we can hon- estly say that Iohn's absence Cwhenever that happened, was felt. In short, he was always expected to be around somewhere and was usually to be heard proving that he was one of the friendliest. .

Springfield has never sent a more versatile and engaging Freshman to Holy Cross than Dan O'Neil. He came imbued with a love of debating, a violin that he had well-nigh mas- tered and a skill in athletics that was more than ordinary. He was elected president of the class in his Freshman year. Dur- 1 ing the first two years that he was here he showed great interest 1 in debating, so that in Iunior and Senior he was chosen as a y member of the successful Varsity debating team. The keen- ' ' E ness and eloquence which he contributed to the forensic jousts 1 in which he took part have increased with each passing year. At the same time, his excel- lence in music won him the position of violin soloist and concert-master of the Philhar- monic Orchestra. Wherever the wandering minstrels entertained the assembled multi- tudes, the sweet and solemn music was well interpreted by him and the swift, syncopating rhythm of the dance orchestra was enhanced by his violin. Due to these activities, Dan relegated tennis and basketball to second place. yet, when on either court, he played as ardently as he worked. He was noted for a disarming predelection for singing uproariously Thse wild mo- ments were unheralded, they were liable to interrupt a quiet conversation or a thesis on the immortality of the soul He was as generous with his voice as he was with all other things Dan s 1nt1mac1es were few, but he has been friendly with all 1 1 1 E 11x4'nW1?

' Four years of collegiate activity frequently transform men radically, and upon graduation stamp their product with deep- seated qualities-of character and intelligence where previously had been strongly labelled youthful enthusiasm. To illustrate the case in point We have but to consider the record of the above gentleman. Four years ago Russell entered our midst, friendly, enthusiastic and impetuous to a marked degree, and keen to absorb the benefits of his college days. Today We find him as enthusiastic and friendly as ever, but a changed man . . man days. Four years of college experience have produced a more capable and intelligent Russell, Managing Editor of The Tomahauflqg four years have produced a more critical and discerning Russell, Editor of the Moon of Books of The Purple, and thesesame four years have produced a more serious and sincere Russell, regardless of whatever phase of undergraduate activity he entered. - 4 An extreme sense of modesty concerning his own abilities and achievements has been one of Russell's predominant characteristics, and this quality with a concomitant confi- dence and aggressiveness, has enabled him to progress very far on the road of under- graduate endeavor. With these fundamentals of character, We indeed hope for, end honestly expect, great things of this son of our Alma Mater. . not the youth of Fresh- 192 V V 45... .. at . ,. pf?

Un- usual indeed was the situation or unpleasantness that could faze him or upset his poise. Red's facile wit and rapid repartee made him a popular favorite, despite the fact that his puns not infrequently evoked a salvo of groans. As a hockey player, Osie had no peers and his tireless speed Wit 911'-s ' '1r'- '- and clever stick-handling made him the most formidable of , opponents. In fact on many a winter afternoon the cry Hold the Tiger, was reiterated throughout the hockey rink. Nor did Iohn restrict his athletic talents exclusively to hockey, for he was an active participant I in all intra-mural sports and was a contributing factor in many of his class's victories. Socially the Tiger was somewhat of an enterpreneur and seldom missed any affairs, even though it taxed his ingenuity to the utmost to attend some of them. His glib explanations to the Dean secured him frequent week-ends and aroused the wonder and envy of his classmates.. As chairman of the last Boston Club dance Iohn was able to employ his experi- ence with admirable results. Such talents as these rather guarantee a successful future for 1- -r.'cs.2'4' ,ga , . the Tiger. . l 193 ' 'ki ai --:f-g-- F ' , as?-Q . x .7 4 .1 ' F .-.

LEWISTON, ME. We hail Bill as the ideal class beadle! Fresh from the far reaches of Maine, he descended to Worcester but four short years ago and so quickly did acclimation set in that in no time at all he was not only a representative and typical student, but had elevated himself to the position of class aide-de-camp without whose activity the teachers' task would be nearly im- possible. Moreover, Bill's aptitude at making friends soon found him in the midst of one of the first and most colorful cliques to dot the campus. Under his expert guidance, Rajah Farrell, Ray Harrison, et al, soon gained an option on Cam- bridge Street territory, and so well did they patrol their district that at times they were mistaken for day duckers. However, Bill's success in this line comes as no surprise to his classmates. Endowed with more than an ordinary share of good looks and possessing an ability .to dress well, Bill was, to put it most gently, a pleasing personage to most feminine eyes. F rom the more discerning male viewpoint the result was just as pleasing, for Bill possessed not only these externals, but a personality which is as rare as it is delightful. Now that the books have been closed for the last time and Bill' once more returns to his mountainous homeland, he departs with all best wishes of the class-and more than that from his large following in extra-campus activity. 194 I I VY -.-fr aa.. .. . , 1 -1 is X - . . 5.41 ...Q ,VE v J ' .Q Lf ffl it if x!

Homer was well known and well liked by the rest of the Vforcester contingent on the Hill. He, too, .nursed several she-bangs of transportation that seriously interfered with the successful financial conduct- ing of the Worcester Consolidated Street Railway Company. Where others were mere names and faces for the resident students, Homer was a per- sonage knownand appreciated by a wide audience. He spun not, neither did he weave, yet -his .sartorial perfection outdid some of the best efforts put forth by residents. His scholarly attainments are manifested by his success and fortune in getting excellent marks in those long lines that entertained the 'Dean after various examinations.

In those great open forums known to the initiated as bull sessions, Tom could always be counted upon to keep the spark glowing with his story of his famous sixty-yard run for good old Bangor High. Al- though Tom has never fully explained how a tackle became a back on the spur of the moment- however, time frequently obscured such unimportant details. K Tom also shone brilliantly in other fields and his thirty-seven mile taxi ride for two dollars is worthy of Mr. Ripley. But Purrie was ever a financier of great merit and his buffet lunch at the Iunior Prom demonstrated his ability to cope with any financial prob- lems that might arise. In passing, we might also state that Tom easily won the title of Horizontal Champ of the school, for a ten-hour sleep to Flash was merely the proverbial winks. It would indeed be a strange miscarriage of fate if Tom fails to ru'n'Life's quarter in record time. .196 V H v l M.- sat: -- .fsr -... 7 1, ' MQ., W gxfsi rw effjltig jf 'll .1r'v?' o:wf,5,43Q rg... gil: vi' :QV .

This achievement alone is enough to - stamp Tony as somewhat of a genius. Blended with this, Tony possessed an aptitude for study that made scholastic barriers mere jumping stones toward success. VVe do know that he never burned the greatly publicized midnight oil and we also know that in every class he'was prepared to recite. How he combined these two qualities is the baffling mystery. Lest we give the impression that Tony was too good and too tormal we hasten to append the important item that he also was one of the most popular men in the class. Endowed with a ready laugh and a fine sense of humor, Tony made friends without even trying. If he continues as successfully through life as he has in his tour years on the Hill, Tony's fortune is assured. i . 197 , .1 4 f .J. rl .X f. 9 n rf-'E.I2'?i.3i4'.14gf1sl ARMAND ANTHONY PICARDI, A.B. , if giggle, Wig, , NEWARK N l it 1. ul J ' ' 7,..Q!J.61 ,ac ,pl 'fd 'iv-j-1 .- i'.,,:. bv.. rf. rfvvyf T N . 7 1 - - . - - . . . . , - . s2.4:T'l'fg.3i'Z3f.l. f bodalzty, Aquzmzs Czrcle, Ierscy Club, Mendel Club, F1 osz Receptzon. xl, A..'.,r5,L .,,4,., , .ff s lx p gf-2:-5. ,L-i 4 '11, 'lj' W , - - ' ' -. 315- V' .'ii uu N Were we to be asked to name whom we consider our idea 5, -f 'rw y ffjrjw - .4 l1,l ri 1' college gentleman, there would be no hesitancy upon our part A Q'. 5. 55 in naming Armand. -Fastidious in his dress and actions, kind l g in corrections, keen-minded in his observations, charming 1n ESQ ,51 5-+ - - wa.

Besides, and beyond all that, he has ,found time to carry the heavy Pre-Medical schedule and to do so with comparative ease. ' The Albany Undergraduate Club has always been able to count on Iack's assistance in all its undertakings: He was Chairman of the Christmas Dance in his Iunior year and Worked hard and unsellfishly to make it a success. His association with the Sodality is lcnown to every H-oly Crossiman. All felt that he should have the office of Prefect, and consequently last Iune he was elected head of the oldest and largest Dorganiaation on the Hill. He has proved in this capacity just as capable and hard-working as in any of his other undertakings. Alma Mater can be proud 'ot lack.

Now this sounds like an exorbitant statement to make. But ask any of W the day students if they ever Saw Tom that he wasnlt chortling oversomething. It is a wonder that a man can be so perfect, since the imperfection of a dour face never beclouded the sunny visage of the inimitable. Tom Price listened to faculty orations 1 and couldnlt stop his How of merriment, he had to let flow a stream of comment on the history professor that made his near- est neighbors shudder with restrained mirth. Such an inllu- ' 1- ti 'ence 'on a class was heartening throughout the whole four years, and if ever Price was anything, he was heartening. However, he must have had sober moments in private, for his studies never suffered from the excess of diversion. He was never a laggard when it came to marks. and he seldom left the Dean's office with any- thing but his usual grin. Perhaps he couldnlt or perhaps he never had the cause to, but wehave never been able to hnd out if Tom ever had disappointments in his life. If he did he never showed them. This Worcesterite is headed toward a successful career, for he has that invaluable gift of keeping the other fellow in good humor while persuading him to do something which otherwise would call for a line display of reluctance. In any line, insurance, law or busi4 ness, Tom starts out in life with a three-quarter thrust forward in the right direction toward success. t 200 R Kimnlxagzwxaatmre -at-ffgzff 4, s . ,,.,,., ., , , 7' 'um ' W'W - F'!'f'- Lv-runs-Quai-asain'-, .,J,,,,......,,. . ,, 055.1 swf., W .

Ever since the days when he shared with Pat Rooney the honor of being one of lack Reed's pet footballers, up to the days of this pzlst year when his fighting power and indomitable courage on the gridiron were but am- plified, he has loomed large-and if thisbe a pun, let it be on our heads-in school athletics. George, withoutidoubt, was S is one -of the most colorful players ever to wear the Purple cleats -and the fact that he wore the famous iron helmet which made his ferocious aspect even more fearful added to this color. Moreover, the Pyne was one of the fastest linemen which Fitton Field, Harvard Stadium et al ever witnessed. And when We say fast we mean so fast that many a time he beat the ends down under the punt. Essentially individualistic, Georges acquaintances believed in him so much that his circle of friends grew wider and wider. But this should arouse no wonder-it is accounted for by the fact that George possessed besides an uncontrollable eyebrow, a personality which is not only distinct but essentially his own. lt is this which, when blended with his athletic prowess, forms the complete man whom we know so well and admire so greatly. 201 YA ' - A lEfCT'l5fS . 1 M, -nm ,p p s, , all . . , if if I. , , A J L -,- i f,'.

This is E7 L rather a broad category but Ioe amply fills it. He is the epi- 5g'f.ai51i tome -of the population of the Heart of the Commonwealth in speech and manner. Loyal to his city, he will defend it against T any out-of-town libelist. The slippery floor of Hickey's and 1, '4,li MarShall's dance emporiums .is one of his favorite luxuries. His interest lies in Worcester and his sincerity and loyalty in Ag 1 this fact is a most admirable quality. . Ioe's keen interest in the scholastic whirl is manifest more in the varied social contacts of his club than in the grind 'of the classroom. However, in this latter field, Ioe was ever successful and he was always one of the ones who left the Deanis pifice with a smile on the days that marks were read. The confidence his classmates had in him was shown when they elected Ioe in senior year to the chairmanship of the Easter Dance and just to show that this confidence was not misplaced, Ioe ran the most successful dance in the club history and while doing so manifested, to the satisfaction of all, his 'generosity and infinite patience. Thus when we say farewell to Ioe Reidy we hail him as good student, good executive and good fellow. 202 1 I 1.

It must be an index to something or other that fair VVoreester should contribute so surprisingly large a quota to the number of students who comprise the scholastic element of the class of 1931. Suffice it to remark that of this noble band, Deke Riedl con- stitutes a good twenty-Eve per cent, however many more may comprise the other three-quarters. This is the Deacon's chief claim to distinctiong and his chief claim to infamylis the seem- ingly well-founded rumor that he wields a wicked weapon in that nihilistic organization known pseudonymically as the Phil- harmonic Orchestra. Charity forbids mention of our subject's alleged participation in the company of Holy Crossj 'Victor Recording Artists, lest the pro- portion of his infamy seem far to outweigh that of his distinction. As the attainment of scholastic renown was the Deke's claim to oflicial recognition on the Hill, so the chief reason for his unchallenged popularity was his overwhelming reti- h Uh D l-. likes to do things by extremes for extreme is cence. it certainly seems as t oug e'e .' C - . , v 0 word best calculated to describe the shy reserve that characterized his every undeniably the i A ' I i dealing with others. Yet was it such a blissful relief to find someone untainted with the braggadocio, for which collegians have a harsher but more picturesque two-syllable epi- thet, that by his very self-negation did he positivize himself, thereby establishing -for himself a reputation that will live behind him. 203 1-H f' ' 'Q' -QW: x 1 7 --,vi--..-.,T....f..w.f .. .

Being subject for four years to the influence of Iack McCool is enough to make most people turn slightly sour-if wemay borrow a class colloqluialism which is at least descriptive. But Steve being not only directly associated with the Pennsylvania Baron but even rooming with him for two years, came through miraculously unscathed-in fact, so well preserved that. in Senior he was able to givethe relentless Ambrose a close race for class championship. Seriously, however, Steve is one of 2 the stalwarts uponwhom the class welfare strongly depended. E In the intramural league he was outstanding. Combined with Ed Keleher he helped form a defensive pair whose skill at find- ing opponents ankles kept many a g-oal from being scored against the seniors on the bloody battlefield of soccer and the more graceful, albeit as strenuous, surface of the hockey rink. In football he was the halfback who' always was able to find an opening fora gain and whose effective tackling halted numerous assaults on '31's supremacy. Besides this physical ability Steve possesses other characteristics which are even more important. He has a sense of sympathy which makes him invaluable as a friend-a brusque good nature which makes his acquaintance something to be desired-a geniality which denotes general popularity-a personality which is destined for success. ll , ,. - 5'fi'5lf'fF: r1f1' ee-M' 'few 204 ,A 7- 'L i t efufqar fs'1se.'r.omiavil:,,' , ,-Q. iff?1'P3'ftr'-'-F 1 has :gg , WET. l , ' R43 Tiff i 7 fir. s if ! , , QRS, I 4 1 C i .Li Q Its' , 5 i l i I f' i JF Q R 'Zin Q l i 1 31 ' '-.', 1. i- ai ' - 4 N DAVID EDWARD RING, A.B. , ' ' , New HAv13N,CoNN. :PNY I Y , .

And what a magnificent specimen of young manhood he was. Tall of stature, broad of shoulder, immaculately dressed, amiable and captivating. The type- of a man people stare at when he passes through a hotel lobby. The kind who know their way around, who have about them the air of business and finance, of build- ing things higher and higher, the air of Wall Street, of rapid talk of iron and of steel. With us, he was our man of affairs. XVe attest to his fine mind, to his powers of concentration, to his strong foundation of common sense. He is the man who steered the enterpriseof the PURPLE PATCHER through a year of depression, whose advice was forever appreciatingly sought by other college organizations which were hard bound for the rocks: Yet don't think for a moment that our model banker's ideas were limited to addition and subtrac- tion. With us, we swear by him as a regular fellow, kind, generous and considerate in all his contacts. In fact, we would describe him as a democrat of the first water, yet still we know him to be a gentleman of fashion and high tastes. As one who on vacation would with delight lunch at the Ritz, tea at the Biltmore, dine at the Casino, dance at the Seaglades. Yet just as soon on a Saturday night at the college go to the auditorium with the boys, laugh and be most natural. Let us see if the great strength, the great intelli- gence, the great heart, the great humanity that were Pat Rooney's do not produce great achievements. .

And surely the ease with which he masters any philo- sophical treatise or concocts an English essay cannot be duplicated by many. But Sal does not confine his activities to the hill. VVith the aid of an ancient vehicle whose one and -only virtue is that it still runs foccasionallyl, he has wandered far and frequently beyond the-confines of XVqorcester.

Luis was commonly known by his pals as The Chief. As a racketeer on the Gold Coast, he had his henchmen always at his service and ready to obey orders.

For instance, we have sometime regarded him as a dreamer, yet we have seen him conquer realities in a way that would do credit to an arch-utilitarian. We have seen him sit back and philosophize over the futility and the vanity of it all, yet we have observed him with much relish barter and bargain with a book agent. We have read his heart-touching lyrics filled with bitter renunciation of all that is mundane, yet we have seen- him move through society with delightful ease. VVe have watched him recline and draw pictures of beautiful women, yet we have seen him play football with the roughest, and dash around the track with the Heetest. You must surmise his versatility, his ingenuity. XVith us it is proverbial. Bob, debonair of dress, soft of voice, delightfully languorous.

' I ' Don is consistently good-natured. There may be- situations which call for a tear instead of laughter but this carefree Low- ellite has never been known to encounter one ol them. Inhibitions have never worried Shanny. lf he feels like hollering lustily he hollers lustily and if he feels an urge to throw a book he just throws it. If there were more Don. Shan- ahans in the world there would be fewer psychoanalysts. As an endurance sleeper Don ranks among the foremost. His sleeve of care, as a matter of fact,,has never been very noticeably ravelled, but Don sleeps for enjoymentand not for anything as utilitarian as health. Shanny is a student in the broad sense of the word. He does not neglect the prescribed courses of study, but neither does he limit his talents to compulsory subjects. The news- paper is his chief source of erudition and he is probably the most well-informed man in the class on topics of current interest. In short, Don is a whole-hearted, good-natured fellow who has, beneath his carefree appearance, a genuine capacity for the more serious things of life. XVith such a nature he is well-equipped to Hnd his place in the world. i lifhl' w ADAM BERNARD SICHGL, PH.B. HOLLAND, MASS.

Adam in his four years up here couldn't quite decide whether he should be a day student or a boarder. After experimenta- tion, however, he finished senior as a boarder-trading loca- tions with Ben Hampsey who seemed to be in the same state of indecision. This characteristic of not being able to make up his mind is also demonstrated by Adam in his not being able to choose any particular undergraduate club to grace by his presence. A quick glance at that section of the book where these clubs are pictured will reveal Adamis beaming counten- ance allied with the organizations representing every New England state. Such a cosmopolitan ability is something to be envied and in future years we expect to see his picture endorsing every manner of travel tour. But there are other accomplishments which Adam can proudly boast. Not the most important of these is his genius in solving cross-word puzzles, The brain twisting squares were but mere childls play before his nimble pen. And then there is this game of football. Adam by reason of his herculean build was a born football star. Although his legs, which would, incidentally, make a Steinway appear fragile, belied his speed. There are many and many an opposing halfback who will testify to his quickness and effectiveness in Eiackling. The class of '31 will lose one of its finer athletes and best fellows when Adam eparts. 212 1 Q.. 144.4-...... ..., p., if.. wr gl., ,ai f 5, A4A Qfj Tv . 1 1 FRANK Macrmno sitvm, JR., ABL.

A It is a known fact that Cross-country is no easy sport in which to' compete and it is a fact just as well known that it is no easy sport to manage. Pictured above, we have the very efhcient manager of this year's team. Frank took care of the Hill and Dalers during their season last .Fall-and when you consider that these fellows romp all 'over the countryside you are bound to come to the conclusion that managing them is like herding six cows in a hundred acre pasture fthe speedlmonger, Mr. Perry, declares this -to be a herculean task.j Frank is a native of Fall River, the city of hills, mills, fires and soccer players. It is especially noted for the latter and we might say right here that when Fall River sent Frank Silvia to Holy Cross she deprived herself temporarily of one of the best booters of the leather sphere. Frank played a big part in organizing intra- mural soccer up on the crest of the mountain side. and was the mainstay ot the senior team until an attack of appendicitis forced him out or active play. Appendicitis is reputed to be rather an obnoxious ailment but we can not help but feel that Frank greeted it with a bit ot reliet for it necessitated his relinquishing the role of a Castilian author on the Chestertonian reception committee, and thus was spared the cold blasts of a bleak day: A will make a success ot his career as a lawyer. 'I XVith such versatility as manifested above we feel sure that Frank 213 i ..f:.-acxm'-xwaum ess- '. W , ,,,. , , . , . 1.5, 1. NORMAN FRANCIS SIMS, A.B. MAYNARD, MASS.

V It is too bad so few of us knew how close Holy Cross came to missing the blonde Viking who is Arthur Whataman Shires' only rival,-at least as regards a highly vaunted but feebly warranted pugnacious temperament. Perhaps his talent would have been better appreciated if the fact were known that Normie's decision to come to the Cross rested upon the turn of a card-his favorite method of solving confusing problems. Gf course the only thing the school could do in recognition of such good taste was to reward Norm with the captaincy of the best collegiate baseball team in the country, and so the compli- ment was returned. Honor such as this, and less than this, has been known materially to increase the hat- size -of more than one erstwhile likeable chap, but it must be said to Normie's credit that never once did he show the slightest tendency to undue cerebral growth. There are one or two individuals who will claim some share in the achievement of this phenomenon, but their charity will be recorded on pages worthier than these. Yet athletic prowess was not the greatest gift nature bestowed on Captain Sims. Though his heralded baseball ability will carry him far along the path of success that has already been emblazoned before him by many a protege 'of Fitton field, his easy-going personality will carry him much farther. It has already taken him over the hurdles of scholasticism with a facility that challenges description. 214 . 1 'M Q-in-i1-npr-fixes' ,: -rsxllis..-Q .. 1 K i vstfeefa:-'vu fy-55,5 Q-we-if N . .,a....,a.-- ,. .,- www .

Introducing the Lindbergh ,of the class of '31+-james Gil- more Derysk Von Moltke Tracy Richardson Sliney. This gentleman with a strange weakness for aliases has an imagina- tion which changes such prosaic things as chairs and desks into i the fueselages and wings of his dreams. Many have been the professors who have failed to realize that lim's varied contor- tions and evolutions are really inverted loops and tail spins. Many have been the times when the staccato voice of an unap- preciative professor has brought lim down from the clouds as effectively as any machine-gun ever downed a bona fide airman. . There are many activities which hll the short time between Iinrs thought flights. His talent at drawing is well known on the Hill and if all the signs which he has drawn during his stay up here were laid end to end they would reach somewhere or other. Hockey is another activity in which Iim excels. He is easily the brightest of the many ice stars who have adorned Mt. St. Iames. His prowess with the puck has earned for him the title of the long, lanky icicle of the ice. In another line of endeavor which consumes a great amount of his time Jim is far from an icicle, that is, his dealings with the fairer sex. His frequent excursions in the direction of a well-known young ladies' school in the vicinity of Boston is sufhcient testimony to the truth of this statement. 215 'fvffifiilfz 51 '- ' 'J t 3+ I HW if . 1 Ji ' fr 'li in ' ,Q ..

Cold, heat, rain or shine, it mattered not a whitg lim never missed a day. ln fact to his faithful patronage the Consolidated owes much, for he and his fellow commuters kept the wolf of bankruptcy from the doors of that company for a long time.

But Iim himself could write a thesis on scholastic matters and throughout his course stood well up in all his classes.

Steve, at some early stage of his precocious childhood, read i that travelling was an education in itself. Since he decided to bestow the honor of his presence on the Cross, he thought that S he might as well get two educations for the price, and so it was that Steve became one of the celebrated dayduckers, despite the l fact that he came from the comparatively distant town of Framingham. Science was Steveis line and, in particular, Chemistry. He absorbed so much of this subject that at times it went to his . head. Quite frequently he could be seen cheerfully wending his Way over to the Chem Lab to complete certain experiments. His practical application of some of the acquired facts in this field furnished no end of amusement to his co-workers. Together with his partner, Iim Connor, Steve made up the musical section of the pre- med. Before exams, their musical discourses were as soothing as a tight shoe, indulgence in them being the best way not to pass the exam. Many a lecture was digested to the syncopated rhythm of Steve's drumming. Some of the hours we spent with him will long be remembered. - . 218 ' .- I 1 CORNELIUS 'IOSEPH SULLIVAN, PH.B.

Aiiable, willing to do anyone a favor, tacttul and talented, and modest, withal, we marked him even' from our Freshman days as a man highly representative of Holy Cross. It is no wonder then, that we gave him the first gift in our power, the presidency of the Freshman Debating Societyg that his section thrice made him its chairmang that he became Editor-in-Chief of The Purple. No man in the college has more genuine spirit than lim and it is no wonder that rallies have thrilled to his mellow voice. No one in the memory of the four classes we have seen has had such a combination of ability and amiability. Such is Iim's public history in bare outline. In his more intimate life, lim is a host par excellence, and many are the lads who have forgotten the grievances against the refectory in the home-like atmosphere of Iim's banquets after ten o'clock P. M. In this capacity he was ably assisted by Dan O'Neil with whom he has roomed since Freshman year. The friendship of these two men, is perhaps the most notable on the campus. 221 A, PAUL BERNARD TRACY, PH.B. BRISTOL, CONN. Sox was the proud holder of several very enviable class rec- A ' ords, among them the greatest number of letters from the girl-friend record, Qhe received well over two hundred per college yearj, the greatest number of late slips without de- meritsl' record, the wore same corduroys greatest number of times record, etc., etc. l It was in the I-irst of these that Paul took the most pride, and 1 for this and other reasons which we shall withhold, we suspect y A that he was one of the few members of ,3l, who were absolutely y y and unqualiriedly in love. We may be wrong, but if any em- bryo banker is arranging wagers on who will be first in the ' i ' class to go the way of all flesh, our money is on Sox. But be not too prejudiced against him on this score, Kind Reader. Paulas amiable quali- ties are many, and his good-naturedness, generosity, and contagious smile have made him one of the most popular members of the class. There were few who could tell a story as Paul could. In his hands, the most commonplace of incidents became riotously funny. Hence his room was always thronged, and no real bull session was ever considered com- plete without him. Success is his lot-and he deserves it. We,d wish him luck if he didn,t have more than his share already. 222 ., A -V - -pw I, -N 5:3 U Y -H1 'V '-ll--ang, . 11 - Y- , . -'Wa' H4-N -0--I-1 Man .fha-.un 1 ,Sai-f-.es-i1lnuu..f.hna....

L ' Frank is one of the libraryroues. In Senior year particularly his jaunts back and forth to that magnificent pump-house of knowledge were regular enough to allow residents of Lower Loyola to set their watches by his departures and arrivals. With the snorting strength of a freight engine he has toiled up the long incline to scholastic success. His dogged chin, rugged brow, firmly-chiseled nose, and black, wavy hair have made him the personihcation of the successful man, plodding Places and doing Things. Frank is the type of fellow that causes the introspective and melancholy college student to regret lost opportunities. Frank's vice is witnessing motion picture shows and in' four years, a lone wolf, he has paid scores of dollars into the tills o the Worcester theatres, relaxing eagerly in the warm, red plush of those entertainment em- poriums two and three times a week. His virtues are many, his powers of study are legendary. He burrowed so deeply into the matter that he well nigh knew it back- wards, he even had the outlandish forehandeclness to study ethics before a psychology examination. As a gastronomic artist he had no equal., A His iconffdence-winning features and well-set figure endear him to many. Frank has ideas, too, and is serious about them-don't you forget that, you hoodlums.-. Frank is a pillar of the Senior class, his strength, not only intellectual, but also physical, was an asset to intramural teams and extra-curricular clubs. He was also a fine corridor-caller. 223 ,,.f ..,1 Hgfnzai wake. ...N rifzin' 4 .V -- . - wp- -ie --'gf f - x.2.:f:.'.n1- A' xii. 14: --,-, f - -- .-mf---QSM -, V LLHLQ, 3,151-A ,J Sega sf nf.-ee it-iran: 'j 1 EDMUND BERNARD WALSH, A.B.

He also enjoys C0!!l'6'l'lS and the Saturday Evening Post. Mary Astor is his favorite actress. He craves dough-nuts and wears somewhat gaudy cravats. Sooner or later, Bl. U.

If asked concerning our real feelings in his regard, we would quite probably say with all sin- cerity that no 'one is more deserving than he of the wide popularity he has achieved throughf out the school.

Sodalizy 1, 2, 3, K. of C.,' Fresh Reception 45 Debating 33 PATCHER Staffg Fall River Club l, 2, 3, Chaiman 4, Aquinas Circle. Iack, during his first year at H. C., roomed on Fourth Fen- wick-both ends of it. This fact is of little consequence to A .fax some, perhaps, but those fortunate persons who are Iackis friends know that it is any insight into his character. Iack, although he could hardly be called spectacular, is usually found among those groups which give color and excitement to every class. His is the power fit defies explanationj of mixing in and becoming an important member in any clique. An extrem- ist in his likes and dislikes, a man of sound judgment Qoften consulted in 2 A. M. sessions to decide arguments? and a good fellow at all times. Reading has been his delight for four years and manyis the night in the suite in Beaven he perused his books in undisturbed bliss, securely hidden behind drawn shades and free from fears of lim, the college boy's friend. More-over, Iack has a rare type of humor, which is a source of great pleasure to all those who know his friendship. We might say here that this humor arises chieHy from his abhorence of all things conventional and orthodox. lack is not even bound by the vast limits of this planet of ours. He is not content to be known as a New Yorker, a Chicagoan or any such narrow appelation-he is the true Cosmopolite-his eyes see the world from far off and he worries not at petty troubles-his is to laugh with a breath -of light cynicism and let the world go on its fevered way. 226 W Ja-aa Y ... -ft :A J.. .1-.

K M The recollection of the tour years on Mt. St. Iames can not H but conjure memories of the popular, able Frank VVhite. In 4 23,1 the day scholars, ranks he was one ot the most outstanding- and the fact that he was known to all the resident students is M : most convincing proof of his popularity. Although not spec- 3 ffl tacular in the classroom, Frank always cleared scholastic bar- riers with the greatest ease and clungkto that, golden mean i' , 5'sidi i'33Sg, which has been so-highly praised: His keen interest in things jg 'li pertaining to Holy' Cross is manitested in the attention he gave to the Worcester Undergraduate Club. Frank was on every club committee of any importance and it was due greatly to his unfailing, earnest endeavors that the social activities of the Worcester Club were so successful. Frank was more widely known than most of his day ducker comrades. This was partly due to his undeniable personality and partly due to his athletic prowess, for Frank was one of lack Barry's efficient ball hawks. To break into the varsity lineup in Senior year and adequately fill the place left open by the graduation ot Henry Lawrence is a feat which requires more than ordinary ability. Yet, this is. exactly what Frank did, and the accomplishment was hailed with praise, not only by his classmates, but by. all the loyal Worcester ball fans. Thus it is quite evident that when we leave we say farewell to one of the more important members of the class. W 227 l I IOHN EDWARD WHITE, A.B. MAYNARD, MASS.

All of which is by l 2 way of a prelude to our formal introduction of one more haPPY l iq son of Holy Cross, here taking his bow before a critical World l I 9 , N X 1 2. which invites him into the whirling maelstrom of its existence, l fl Q and challenges him to rise above it. ii The specific error of Iack's ways was his persistence in remaining at Boston College for the Hrst three years of his K checkered collegiate career. Relatively speaking, three years is a long time for a man to resolve to mend his ways and to follow 'out his resolution. In positing this three-year lassitude, we presume, quite naturally of course, that Iack saw the error of his ways before many months of his Freshman year had passed. At least, they tell us, that that is the way it is with most disillusioned Freshmen at our sister,' college. But all things' are forgiven in view of Iack's final decision to come 'over to the fold at last, although we shall always regret the loss of the longer and better friendship we could have had with him had he seen the way and the light three years sooner. - Iack was severely handicapped at the outset of his Senior year among us by the fact of an antecedent acquaintance with a fellow-townsman from the budding metropolis of May- nard. Yet most of us were charitable enough to realize that it was no fault of his that he had to know the Ownie Carroll of 1931. 228 'x ' . WHY' ' 'I , if it I 'UP , if it 1.

Four years has furnished us 'with adequate proof that Ohio is doing something more than producing 'matches and sponsor- ing prison riots. 'Harry's presence has caused the less fortun- ate amongst us, who reside in or near Boston, to stop and reflect that after all the Middle 'West is probably less than half Indian and that civilization extends farther west than BufIalo. Itis not hard to see why Harry has exploded the ancient superstition. In technical language he is what is known as a I smoother --and, dear reader, that termconnotes nothing but , recognition with clear praise. It is that something plus that ,I I I is unconsciously earned by a certain Chesterfieldian grace of ' word and deed that is especially manifest in a social event- the Junior Prom for example. However, to use a Latin phrase, not only but even-Harry is not so gentle on the gridiron. In fact, his ideas and actions there seem to approach what. an ordinary judge would call mayhem, or at least, assault and battery. They still tell the story about the B., C. freshman game in Harryls first year. . However, Harry in Sophomore year, gave up the grind of the gridiron for the lure of the ,labs,where his work was marked with the same spirit of intentness. After a while, he had calmed down enough for the athletic director to permit his playing interclass foot- ball 'to' the sheer delight of his teammates and to the great dismay of the opponents.

Without going into ecstatic raptures and the lavish praise that is usually tolerated in a year book, it may be honestly said that Bob has rightly earned the admiration that is his. He has participated in about every scholastic extra-curricular activity that exists on the Hill. Bob was well-known early in Freshman year by his scholarly answer to an inquiring Dean, through the medium of America, and also as a prominent member of that Freshman debating team that so decisively defeated the bewildered Sophomores-beir U . E . . .. . . ' a debater that in Senior year he was elected to the presidency of the B. I. F. Debating Society. Bob was also the Alumni Editor of The Tomahawk, and in Senior year, the president of the Sanctuary Society. ' And as for studies-well, it's almost brutal the way Bob glides through philosophical mysteries, unravels chemical tangles and lays bare intimate facts about the rabbit's home life. These high grades, by the way, are not due to what the more uninformed term grinding --since Bob's usual procedure before an exam is the evening meal at the Weir's, where Bob is so constant a guest that the Freshmen thought he was Gorge's patron, and a leisurely perusal of an entertaining book. Without a doubt this calm and serene attitude toward life will be Bob's forever, and will be inseparable from the success that we all know will be his.

' ' Up to Pakachoag in the fall of 1927, came another of those men who are the delight and the despair of English classes, For Bill Woods was wrapped up in the drama. To anyone who would listen he would talk for hours of his favorite author of the moment. Nor did the implicit nor the frankly outspoken displeasure of his auditors disturb him. He heeded not the Hnger of scorn nor the arguments of the knowing! There is, however, more to Bill than his dramatic leanings. Anyone who knew him well will testify that never has there been one more sincere or ardent for knowledge. Rather than ' admit defeat he would struggle with his books for hours on end. In fact, he never felt prepared for an examination till he was fully acquainted with the meaning and all of the implications of every word in the treatise. I Fortunately Bill was blessed with a saving sense of humor and a spirit of forgiveness. Back in those dim, dreary days of the winter of Freshman year he needed it sorely. For many who understood neither him nor his peculiar ways undertook to Hreformn him. But likeball things will, that era passed and Billy emerged one of the best-liked and most- often forgiven members of the class. . , t He has added spice to our four years here with his skits at- receptions, his uprising against law and order in the refectory, his habits of arising early in the morning and of imitating the Peripatetic school in perambulating.

It is a fitting climax, for Ed has distinguished himself as one of the foremost members of the class. i ' This prominence is partly due to his unequalled airy touch on the keys of the saxophone-the same instrument, by the way, which in Fenwickian days so often disturbed the mid- afternoon torpor of the inhabitants on the floor below and was the inspiration of lengthy and rambling articles in protest, pro- mulgated in the famous weekly. However, it is a matter of class history that most of these same victims are now unstinted in their praise. But, although this pleasant diversion, together with four years of eternal searching for the purple button on his band fez, removed him from our sphere at odd hours, yet Ed-like Dick Rover-found plenty of time too- indulge in the more mundane activities such as piling his next door neighboris dresser and trunk on theaforesaid neighborls desk, or removing an unnecessary door, or composing little ditties to the air of well-known college songs. It is in these choice morsels of corridor fun that his intimates will remember Ed at his best-and it is in this pleasant state of retrospection that welll offer to Ed, wherever he may be, a cheery good 33 evenya. 232 wfwwia- .V-5.

Way back in Freshman year when the good, big brotherly Senior tried to wel- come us and pat our golden curls and tell us how 'cnice and pretty we looked, andnwhat a wonderful time we would have, now that we had come to stay with grand-daddyf' we shocked our elders by telling them to be themselves. That got us a bad name as a bunch of upstarts, who would get nowhere with that attitude. Our first year seemed Hooded with reverses. It seemed as though we were a cross current trying to breast the rushing tide of customary habits. We saw things differently and far from holding our counsels we told this little world on Mount St. Iames. They boded a sorry ending for us inrthose bleak days. Welve managed to struggle along to quite a high honor of being one of the most active classes in the past decade of Holy Cross History. We commenced our brief, too brief stay on the Hill under the rather dis- couraging disadvantage of faculty censure. Our radical ideas did not most decisively meet with approval. Besides we had numerous internal wrangles that never seemed to straighten themselves out in Freshman year. We own to an iniquity of cliques. We were just rotten with class,' distinction and abso- lutely devoid of Class spiritj There was no unity. Where there is no unity there is no strength. We found that out. Towards the end of the green', age we realized that the disrupting influence within us had the effect of making us vulnerable whenoutside criticism came our way. We could never quite con- centrate our forces and prove our abilities when they were being panned with no little heat. lt became necessary to draw together the straying folds. Under the excellent and wise Presidency of Dan O'Neil, we veered toward the sane by gradual degrees. The talent that has so marked our course first came into evidence and the Held of extra-curricular activity began to sit up and notice. The pages of the Purple were augmented by lyrics from the pens of Frank McGratty, lack Kent and Iim Doyle. The Tomahawk and Dramatics reaped their deserved share and we proudly watched our classmates, boasting the purple 1931, compete gloriously in every branch of athletics.

The ceaseless round of Latin, English, Greek was no longer a bitter task and became but a normal assignment. We had become acquainted with the league and the CC 37 bullet and when bells rang we knew what they meant. Our calendar con- sisted of a counting of the interludes between vacations when we could return to proud parents and relate those breathless incidents of midnight sessions and nocturnal marauders whose ability to handle a pail of ice cold water was only too Well known. The receptions to welcome us had taken placeg the Seniors Qoh, memorable nightj with the talented Underhill as master of ceremonies and the memory of flying ice cream boxes during intermission g the Iuniors with the unforgettable German doctor who nearly caused a greater riotg Easter vacation approached with the thrill of afternoon spent watching our own championship baseball team. Frosh Night! Hank, Connolly placed himself on the pedestal of fame which he has yet to relinquish and staid Fenwick Hall still echoes the laughter of that night. A The finalswere upon us?-Ja nightmare of study and the class of 1931 was no longer the baby of the school. Two months of vacation pass quickly and September, all too soon it seemed, reunited the class to that age-old cry, Chavagoodsummer?,' Lazy days were forgotten in the immediate renewal of the scholastic whirl. New faces had allied with the class and a host of the old familiars never returned. lim Doyle took over the reins of government and became our class president for the year. He carried out the work of revamping the Whole class system, Working along the lines already laid out by O'Neil. It was hard work,' and not a few of us 235 T had fallen into the rut of small narrow-mindedness, had become provincial, within the world of our Class. We refused to be budged from the careless and dispirited state of disunion. Eventually the problem dissolved itself. Group grooved with group, shoulder to shoulder. Enemies cast off the shroud of enmity and emerged resplendent in the garment of pure amity. We were molten pieces of rough iron ready for casting. Out of this slowly formed unity there-came a class spirit and pride that has been admittedly equalled by few and surpassed by none in the whole history of Mt. St. Iames. From a mess of tangents we converged into a clear-cut circle. We accomplished things by this concentration of energies. When we decided to carry an undertaking as a class we hurled our compact mass at the problem and it gave way before our strength. y Our scholastic record changed radically for the better. We placed ourselves high among the brilliant boasts of Alma Mater 'throughout the New England Province in those stirring intercollegiate battles for merit of Pro Archi-a' and Horatian averages. We had become a source of pride to the teachers, most of whom had looked forward with dread to the time when they should have to take over the teaching of the unruly Freshman class recently turned Sopho- mores. They started under the impression of a bad name that had been given us and we were handicapped by their disfavor. However, persistence in their inclination to deem us unworthies could not last long in face of our drive for recognition. They yielded more, they swelled the growing tide of encourage- ment and praise that had started to swamp us. However, too much glory could never be too heady for us. We strove for more. In the football field we gave Coach O,DonnellL Pyne, Weiss, Farrell and Himmelberg as linemen. Garrity, 236 Baker and Meegan rode the backheld. Through the power of our classmates in the form of Sliney, Kelleher, Frazer, O'Shea, and Meegan, hockey received the impetus that year such as it will seldom experience again on this Hill. Under the Chairmanship of Ray Martin, we Sophomores of that day gave our reception to the Freshmen and found out how it felt to be on the giving end of the line. The Freshmen were well behaved, either because they were so by na-ture or they were awed by our prowess in the art of entertainment. Fol- lowing years have shown that the greenies of that year must have been astounded by us into silence. Yes, for our own sake, we shall assert that their conduct was despite their habits and because of our actions. We contributed the majority of the quintet that represented the school on the basketball courts. Baker, Farrell and Russell led the well-known Crusaders forth to battle underthe Captaincy of Iohnny Morriss, the' ranking Senior. K .it I . x .H jk. . l On the track, Bill Madden, Dick Haggerty, Bill Maher, Georgie Morin, 'Tom Perry and Ned Flanagan acted as a husky .skeleton for Bartls, Wizardry. Bill Madden has persisted in his stride through the four years. 'And Morin has pushed to the Captaincy in Senior. Flanagan has represented the school in national and -district meets at the hammer, and has achieved a recognition as great asthat his classmates gave him for his prowess in the refectory. For lack Barry,s sole purpose Sims, Friederichs and Garrity performed won- ders on the green turf of Fitton Field. Publications and Dramatics and the Musical 'Clubs all derived their beneHt of the talent that was so profuse. Nick Healy' became ,the editor of a better Tomahawk. Ed Xiques was the sax soloist whose abilitypbelied the veracity 237 ' ,,. ,V V A vijxjm A ,M A ,gn 4 'T ...L .,., ,',..,1,...,,, A, Y ,Huy A y ,Y L ,Mg g j ng. . , .mg .. . . . of certain magazine articles belittling the musical quality of this bent tin hornf, Besides this, there was a distinct thrill in the realization that we were no longer the lowliest in the school. Alumni was our tenting grounds and who can ever forget the long, downward trek for a shower 3 the nonchalant Mr. O,Malley, who laid aside his banjo to ring an alarm g the pitiful case of mis- taken identity which the water brigade perpetrated and-who was the man who gave the pop-corn to Weston? F It was on the wings of memorable incidents that the year sped by and before we realized it we had forgotten the days in Regis and the nights in Alumni and turned' our attention to ducking the swinging doors in Beaven, listening to the comedy of Connolly-Connolly, thrilling to another championship base- ball team, founding the Beta Betas, guided by the zealous Bill Earls who took up the reins of presidency where lim Doyle left off. Latin and Greek were things of the past and philosophy became the nemesis intsead. Iunior year started with the riot, that ephemeral uprising which died as quickly as it was born. Iunior Prom under the efficient chairmanship of Bill Madden added a pleasurable glitter to the gray, winter days as did the Freshman Reception with its dire results. Christmas, mid-years and How of ontology, cosmology, epis- temology. Finally Easter and wearing the. class ring to club dances. The songfest with '31, singing Bob Seaman's lyrics, winning for the second time. Long days in the stadium studying for the orals--Iune-and the dreaded con- versation with the philosophyboards. That last red Monday with the final score: Studentsx3-Faculty 19. Q Once again September brought the reunion and' the -Class of 1931, sadly depleted, returned to the college man's estate,' with all the dignity befiitting a Senior. Caps and gowns, ethics and psike were waiting, but the thrill of the novelties were lost in the greater thrill of the new 'csystemf' It was hard to realize that our last year was upon us, but wonderment was forgotten in that first rush of acclimation. Loyola became our home and its newness was welcome. Football, also with a new system, was the first diversion-Harvard 0, Holy Cross 275 no rowdyism . . . it's baadn and 1 see where Harvard scored another victoreef' We'll go down . . . and beat Brown.

D y In football, the class claims Phil O'Connell, captain-elect of the varsity, who ran wild over Harvard and Boston College last year and played so brilliantly throughout the whole season that he gained All-American mention, and recognition as the greatest quarterback the Cross has produced. Cavalieri and Colucci, pride of the Roman people, Baiorunos and Griffin likewise occupied first-string positions on the squad. Numerous capable utility men also helped to swell the strength of Captain McEwan's brigade. The hoopsters drew valuable resources from the House -of Beaven, Luke Driscoll, Ioe Nicholson and Ed Dono- van being the main luminaries. On the cinder path we supplied 'Bernie McCatTertv, famed as one of the foremost middle distance men in the country. To mention his numerous triumphs would 'be equally impossible and unnecessary. Iohn Holland helped to carry the purple banner to victory in the relays. Other valuable point-getters were Goyette, Bill O,Connell, Weldon, Varella, Parent, Bell, Cavalieri, 'LPrimo O'Brien, and last, but by no means least, Art McDonald, star hurdleriand general one-man track team. lack Barry's championship ball club has Iohn Marshall' and Phil O,Connell as the keystone sack com- bination. Dukker Farrell is, again pulling them out of the sun in center held and Buck Mahoney is Hinging the proverbial pellet from the proverbial alluvial elevation. And wehave had enough athletic talent in .reserve to whip the rest of the Qnllege in the intramural games. Tom Trainor's eleven gave the highly-touted Seniors such a trimming that the two underclasses were afraid to play them. McGuigan's booters easily took the soccer championship and now the boys are showing their wares on the d-iamond. . We have not space to mention all our musicians, Reynolds, Howe and Caulfield are the best of the singers and Merliani is the star among the instrumentals. Ierome Murphy arranged the Victor record of Holy Cross songs. I-ohn Andrew Burke is the most inspired orator and cleverest after-dinner speaker on the Hill. Santen, Ted Murray and Fitzsim- mons shine as debaters. The varied talents of our great number of Thespians enabled the Dramatic Society to cover the range of utragical-V-c-omical-historical-pastoral, scene undividable or poem unlimited. Burke carried away the comedy, McCann the erotic playing, Caulfield and Howe made good cops, and Moakley -played the noble Brutus in Hlulius Caesar. Numerous other Iuniors had prominent parts, especially in the mob scene. Bob Dillon, editor of The Tomrzhrzzulg leads our list of Iournalists. Collins is managing editor, Steve Bergin, business manager, and Connelly, city editor. Burke and Gene McCue take care of most of the editorials. The clever column of McDonough, Lynch and Ducey and the sporadiccontributions of lim Shu added very materially to the interest ot the paper. Our literary men are no less prolific. The delicate verses of Duggan, joe Gallagher, Bill 0'Connor and VValter Green, Class Odist, kept The Purple going strong and drew fayor- able comment from other college monthlies. Stories and essays of highquality and ot all descriptions were forthcoming from Ierome Murphy and the afore-mentioned poets. Iack Delaney is the punctual and exuberant sports editor. A whispering campaign put in Walt Greene as editor and Ioe Sullivan as business manager of the next PATCHER, which by the way, will be the best-ever! , ' I I , Frank Millea showed us a ine Prom and on the whole it was a good social year, an excellent basis for Kermit,' Hamiltorfs future stories. 247 '1'T'T 11 X- v- .. l if i 'Mil i i i i L l ii' i E i i ? 5 3 v 0 , i l l 1 l i I Z 1 i 4 Qi s i i , .fi 3. - 45351 . - 'if en!

Rather it has gone on to conquer new heights, and shaking oli the natural, retiring reitcence of its Hrst year on the Hill, has assumed a position in the collegiate ladder that is recognized and admired by all. In athletics, its activity has been predominate. lim Nicholson kept the class in the limelight when he w-on the annual college tennis tournament for the second consecutive year, while lack Cahill and Ed Hidalgo filled important positions on the same varsity squad. When the football stadium was thronged every Saturday in the fall, the ,X Sophomore men were there to do more than their share for victory. Cn this point, dear I reader, the ardent soph rooter will weary your ears: he could tell you of the brilliant work of Kelly, Clifford, Murray, Donovan, and Rovinski in the backfield, or of Favulli, Ryan, 3 Flanagan fto mention only a fewfl in the line, but the hne work of all could Hnd no more i characteristic and praiseworthy an example than that of Big lim Zyntell, pulling down that blocked punt behind the goal to crush Boston College for the hrst-time in six years. It was partly Bill Coakleyis great run on the First leg that enabled the mile relay team to lower the record against Penn, and between Bob Tierney, Don Maynard, and Gordon Winslow in the Sprints, and Matt Blake in the mile, the contribution of the class to the track world is secure. In hockey, the Soph- ,team had just to sh-ow its stuff, and its claim - to the intramural title was so clear that the Iuniors hastily decided to withdraw. In bas- ketball, ably supported by such lettermen as lim Nicholson and Lefty Mantelli, the eagle- , eyed Paul Schoenrock rang up the astounding total of one hundred and thirty-three points to tie for the season's honors. VVhile we go to press too early to view the baseball season, nevertheless it is clear that the class will again be there, , . . l . , . . But these are not the only lines of endeavor this proud and rhetorical race has followed. It has materially aided the Purple Players in their three successful productions this year, and a display of the histrionic abilities of such actors as Tom Dwyer, Harry,Kirwin, Ed Hidalgo, and Bill Zeller is a delight to witness. For debating, the class has demonstrated a special penchant: a Soph team overcame the Iunior varsity of Boston College, Ed Hidalgo and Ray Leddy made their varsity debut auspiciously in the encounter with Canisius, 'and Ed Hanify must have drawn on his long experience of two full years of varsity debating, on his victories over Boston College, Harvard, Fordham, and Loyola, when he made that marvelous speech at the Sophomore banquet, which is still remembered as an epic product by all who were there-. Likewise in the musical field, the class, has been well represented. But the Philharmonic Orchestra suffered a loss that is only comparable -to that of the class, when, shortly after the second term opened, we were saddened by the death of Richard Crane. Of his I-ine abilities and likeable qualities we need say little here, but in this, its first loss, the class has felt an absence that must ever remain unfilled. Before we close this brief sketch, let us give honorable mention to the faithful scribes who have clone more for the college publications than we can here narrate. The high standing of The Purple in collegiate circles must be .attributed in large measure-to the nine Sophomores who are members of the staff, and while a sacred newspaper traCl1I1Of1 IHSISYS that its writers remain incognito, yet those who are familiar with the haunts pf Lower Loyola, can tell you that the nine second-year members of The Tomahawk, are lrflportant factors on a college weekly which bows to none. n I ' i Thus far the saga of the Sophsf' we say, and. look to this class to maintain itshpromis- ing reputation, and to work whole-heartedly with the present Iuniors and Fres men to preserve the trophies Thirty-one leaves behind. 253 ' '- Wt ' -V .aph ,gi ,gf 5' lQT4'i'tf,' I I 1.1 l I r l F EAM... .,............ ......

Freshman Class History p The fall of l93O marked the entrance of the Class of '34 into the halls of Holy Cross The realization that Holy Cross was a democratic institution made itself evident by the close connection which soon became apparent between the faculty and student body. lt was not long before the guiding hand of our amiable chairman, Ed Keenan, moulded the class into a Hrm organization. The class had the misfortune of losing one of its members in the untimely death of Ioseph Mortimer. The scholastic schedule placed its burden upon the class in due time, and the youthful members replied with a will. The struggles with Poetry, the Sciences, and the'Classics found the majority of the victories on the side of the students, and the mental aptitude of '34 was well attested by the excellent showings on the Honor Roll. And now to leave classroom scenes in the background for a time and to digress for a short space on the athletic activities of '34, The Freshman football team, handicapped by a short season, created no sensation, but the frequent practice encounters with the varsity revealed the talent of several potential stars who will bear watching next year. ln the per- sonages of Hanus, Griflin, Billings, Davino, Horgan, Ferrazzano and Moore, Coach McEwan will have valuable understudies to his next year's regulars. On the court, the yearlings had a rather unfortunate season. The inability to keep a steady pace and maintain anxearly lead 'cost them more than a few victories. Through the maze of a dismal season the work of Bennett, Power, Tamulevich and Quine scintil- lated. With the revival of hockey, some very excellent material was uncovered, particularly in the playing of Costello and Moore. Bart Sullivan's hill and dalers and ind-oor track men had fairly good success, and the chances for a large number of thisAyear's Freshmen appearing in varsity track togs in the near future arebright. - , With the reorganization of intramural sports, '34 made its presence very pronounced. Three meetings failed to determine the supremacy over the Alumni outfit on the gridiron. A very close game was lost to the Senior quintet for the championship of the school. The soccer and hockey contests were likewise lost to the upperclassmen, only, however, after gallant struggling on the part ofthe yearlings. - Many aspiring journalists turned their attention toward reporting for The Tomahawh. From the enthusiastic number of cub reporters, whose scoops have appeared in the edi- tions of this weekly, an excellent staff ought to be chosen. The Purple has welcomed 'the literary efforts of many of the young writers of '34, and some of their works have elicited high comment. In the art of debating, extensive progress was made.. In addition to its usual weekly meeting, an open forum was held, which afforded all the members the oppor- tunity of speaking frequently and thus obtain the practice so necessary for debaters. This year marked the rejuvenation of the Hellenic Academy, a famous club on the Hill which had been inactive for the past few years. The club was mostlycomposed of Freshmen, and many interesting phases on Greek life and literature were discussed. The Dramatic Society turned to '34 for members, and several future greats responded to the call. The acting of Trivett, Graf and McCarty met with the distinct approval of the Moderator. And thus another class has commenced its college career on 'Mt. St. Iames. To Father Friary for his generous assistance, to Keenan for his valuable help in our early days, and to the officers for their deep interest, '34 owes a debt or gratitude. Eagerly does this class look forward to the future, imbued with thespirit to bear, high the traditions of its distinguished Alma Mater. 259 31 J 2951? .

The football team, under the able coach- ing of Captain McEwan, was the first to claim the limelight and the brilliant aroused a new enthusiasm for the grid- iron sport on Mt. St. Iames. Only twice was defeat suffered and these losses were counterbalanced by the overwhelming victories over Harvard and Boston College. Track consisted mainly in thefconsis- tent brilliance of the mile relay and the sensational running of New York's most popular indoor star, Bernie McCafferty. The relay, athough dogged by misfor- - - 1 tune, was easily one of the finest ever to - ' CLEO UDONIETELL ' . , '. .v . If ' be developed by Bart Sullivan. DWU0' of ' ' fm Basketball brought forth a team which possessed a wealth of strength when performing on its home court, but which suffered badly at times when forced to play on a large floor. The season, although more successful than usual, still left something to be desired. ' I Patriots' Day, the official opening of the baseballseason,,witnessed the im- pressive raising of the Intercollegiate Baseball Championship pennant. For three successive years this banner Qhas Huttered in the South Worcester gales- a tribute to the mighty bats of lack Barry's teams. The present squad, although starting poorly for a Holy Cross outHt, soon attained a championship stride and easily conquered the best that Yale, Georgetown, Brown and B. C. could offer, and the destiny of the baseball title seems decided for another season. . 4-sea ' Z 9 if iff . I '15 37522 'A CRUSADERS OF 1877 'ff I X q wx X - ,I E' Mi.

' - Q CAPTAIN-ELECT OiCONNELL and ciRED,, BAKER From my point of view, the American football game is not merely a sport, but implying a plenty of knowledge of military science. Although the matters Qplayers, ball and fieldj are the same with, yet the forms ffunctions and maneuversj quite different from and much better than that of soccer. The short conference before attacking, the reversal of position from offence into defence, the tricky passing from hand to hand, the feinting, carrying, etc., all are best tactics to be applied to arms. And the seeming hard, but without heavy hurt knocking down in comparison with the blind, rough and culpable kicks express more obviously the superiority of the American football game of soccer. Furthermore in playing soccer, it is likely to induce the better players of one team to show off their individual expert regardless of the teamship work, for most of the players cannot help to commit this fault which oftentimes necessitates a promising offence failed. On the contrary, the players of the American football game have to absolutely obey the leader's instructions at every time, they work systematically and universally. During watching the latter, occasionally I could not but say to myself, Who invented such an impressive game! Since I saw this game, it seems to me that soccer is not only rough, but a game of no meaning, it is a childish sport with many pernicious consequences I should say. Really I have taken a deep fancy to the American football game, though I am a for- eigner to it, my admiration for it beyond my broken English descriptions. Therefore, there is no wonder that all Americans take it for delicious feast. But many important rules about penalty and performance are still unknown to me, I believe. The moment I understand them thoroughly, I will enjoy it more. 272 33 .

BONAVENTURE 0 Anxious to observe the new system which had been installed, a record-breaking number of fans turned out to witness the opening clash No matter how much was expected of the McEwan-coached Crusaders we venture to say that very few left the stands disappointed. St. Bonaventure put a well-balanced, well-coached team on the field, but the Purple pre- dominated, due to superior power and the precise execution of a number of intricate plays. The heads-upi' play of the Crusaders coupled with their apparent mastery of the new system brought forth satisfied comment from all present. Phil O,Connell was particularly brilliant and was aided on most of his coring efforts by exceptional interference. ' HOLY CROSS 27-PROVIDENCE 0 Our hopes for a successful season received an added stimulus when Providence was met and conquered. After being held scoreless in the first period, the varsity attack began to function and rolled up four touchdowns in apparently easy fashion. In the second period, Baker broke through the line of scrimmage, evaded the secondary and swept on for the first score. This ended the scoring for the first half although the Cross was continually threatening to shake a man loose for another scoring rampage. Returning for the second half, the Crusaders showed the results of Capt. McEwan's advice. Three touchdowns were pushed over in rapid succession before Providence could stem the tide. The running and blocking of Capt. Garrity, the punting of Baker, and O,Connell's generalship, together with noticeable improvement in the execution of plays, strengthened the opinion formed the previous week. V ' Kelly drilling the New River line. 274 HOLY CROSS 27-CATHCLTC UNIVERSITY 6 We felt our first tremor of fear for the ultimate success of the team when Catholic Uni- versity displayed unexpected strength. The Crusaders failed to develop a sustained attack and only because of their superior power were they finally victorious. C. U. was evidently not impressed by the Crusaders' previous victories and broke up attack after attack. The absence of Capt. McEwan undoubtedly had something to do with the ragged work of the team and this was the only consolation which we could derive from the victory. HoLY cRoss 0-PoRDHAM 6 I ccm't my too much for Capt. .ll'fCEbLfd72 and the jfne Holy Cross team he pitted tzgtzinst us today. We won-but we were Zuclgyf'-Major Cavanaugh. These words of Major Cavanaugh sum up the game very well. Aided by Holy Cross mistakes, Fordham managed to score a touchdown in the early minutes of play and held this precious lead to the end. The Fordham team drove the length of the field in short, vicious smashes and with the Holy Cross defence bunched to withstand another line smash a beautifully executed lateral, with Bartos on the receiving end, carried the ball across. The cross, far from disheartened by this blow, drove deep into Fordham territory on the kick-off, only to lose possession of the ball on a fumble. Throughout the rest of the game the Crusaders constantly threatened and in a final, desperate drive were halted one short yard from the goal. ' , The feature of the game was a brilliant run-back of the second kick-off by 'Hank Gar- rity. Farrell at center was given the decision over Siano, who was forced to retire early from the play. The running of O'Connell,,and the punting of Baker kept Fordham well back in its own territory. For Fordham, Murphy and Ianis in the backfield and Tracey and Foley on the line were outstanding. ' For the Hrst hard game of the season-a game in which every play was.ma'de under pressure--the team-work of the Purple was remarkable. The fact that the team was able i l Baker breaks loose-Fordham game. 275 to gain consistently through the Fordham line, a forward wall which had repelled every attack for two years, proved conclusively that Holy Cross had an offence equal to any in the East. The statistics showed that we outplayed Fordham in every department of play with the exception of that all important one, scoring. HOLY CROSS 0-BROWN 13 ln a cold, driving rain Holy Cross went down before Br-own for its second defeat on successive Saturdays. Brown, though hardly thirteen points better, deserved to win, for the McEwan cohorts suffered a decided let-down after their exhausting struggle against Fordham. The soggy field and the wet ball, dreaded by every team that uses the type of attack the Purple had adopted, prevented the backs from playing up to their usual standard When touchdowns were imminent the slippery field and wet ball always conspired to pre- vent a score. The game was not ten minutes' old when Harris threw a pass to Gilmartin for the first score. Brownscored again in the final period by receiving a fumble in Holy Cross territory after the Purplels m-ost sustained attack had been halted. Barber provided the feature of the afternoon when he sent the soggy ball from his own ten-yard line seventy yards through the air to the Holy Cross twenty, from where it rolled into the end zone. For Holy Cross, Garrity played his usual, dependable game and O'Connell showed his worth continually. HOLY CROSS 32-RUTGERS 20 The score indicates that the lads from the banks of the old Raritan furnished the Purple with a few anxious moments and that conclusion is very true. Captain McEwan in an effort to save the men who had withstood the bruising attacks of Fordham and Brown, started his reserves. Evidently Rutgers resented the slight and it was no long before the strongest Purple combination was in action. The game was spectacular throughout. Grillin started one scoring rampage with a forty-seven-yard run and this was immediately followed by a fifty-yard pass from Clifforc. to Baker.

HOLY CROSS 13-NEW RIVER STATE 0 After months of conjecture as to the existence of New River, the doubts of the entire student body were banished by the actual appearanc of the New River State football team. Clad in colorful rairnent, this small, but mighty band of warriors, tramped on the gridiron and forced the Crusaders to extend themselves to the utmost in 'order to quell their gal- lant spirit. Captain McEwan started a team composed of reserves and regulars and this' combination was held scoreless throughout the first half. The second half began with the varsity intact and the thrusts of O,Connell, Baker and Garrity could not be denied. Baker crossed with the first score after receiving a pass from O'Connell. The second score came very near the close of the last period on a sustained drive of sixty yards, culminating in a brilliant twenty-five-yard run by O,Connel1. HOLY CROSS 27-HARVARD 0 With their pyrotechnical passes rocketin g through the gray stadium mists, their long, curling punts wiping theufroth OH the stars and the crash of their tackles ringing like the shattering of store windows, the McEwan-coached gridironals from the Mount of St. james gave the eminent Ionathan Harvard a worse thrash- ing on his own premises yesterday than the combined forces of the Army, Dart- mouth and Michigan were ahle to administer in three separate soirees. The mar- gin of victory was 27 to o and this throws all previous Harvard-Holy Cross rec- ords into the discard hut one. It represents the biggest total a Holy Cross team ever scored against Harvard. It likewise represents the most decisive victory either team has achieved over the other in a solid decade of post-war play. -Bill' Cunningham. A lateral, Baker to O'Connell-Harvard gamC. 277 ,J .1 g ,fi 1. fist,-,lr 2? ll P if TF Sl' An attempt to describe adequately the brilliance of Holy Cross as they battled Harvard to a standstill would be but vain. The thrills which characterized the entire game evade any reproduction through the medium of a limited pen. Only the actual spectators who braved the cold mists which enveloped Soldiers' Field and witnessed the memorable strug- gle can truly realize the calibre of the Crusader team, which gave Harvard the wost set- back it has received from a Purple team in fifteen gridiron clashes and the soundest beat- ing it has received from anyone since its last game with Princeton. The first tense opening minutes of play witnessed the incomparable Phil O'Connell gaining fifteen yards on one of Harvard's own laterals, throwing a thirty-yard forward, which sailed by the Crimson secondary and alighted upon the eager fingertips of Colucci, and topping this initial drive with another perfectly timed flat pass into the end Zone and, incidentally, into the waiting arms 'of Captain Hank Garrity. So suddenly was the touch- down accomplished that for a moment the spectators were spellbound-but for only a moment. The next instant pandemonium and the stands were synonymous. Harvard recovered valiantly and throughout the second period pushed the Purple team back to its two-yard line. There, however, eleven pairs of cleats dug deeply into the green turf and the Crimson wave spent its fury in three vain attempts to crash this adamant line. Baker,s soaring punt from behind his own goal line carried the play into middle field as the half ended with Holy Cross on the safe side of a 7-0 score. But the first half proved but the gentlest of overtures to what the final period produced. The ball was in play but a few moments when Iim Cavalieri leaped between two Harvard backs, snared a lateral and raced unmolested for the touchdown, which put the Crusaders thirteen points ahead. Henry Baker, whose playing featured the entire game, provided one of the biggest thrills of the afternoon when he, although surrounded by three oppon- ents, leaped high into the air to snare a pass and fall backwards over the goal for the third touchdown. HOLY CROSS 32-LOYOLA 0 Someone said: Bring on the reservesln and the Mcliwanmen had something of a merry time battering Loyola into submission.

The Southerneris had no power to match the Holy Cr-oss attack, but they never stopped trying. Three times they rose up and hurled back Purple ball carriers when standing on their own goal line. HOLY cRoss 7-BOSTON COLLEGE 0 Typical New England weather prevailed as Holy Cross met Boston College in the grand finale, but frigid weather will never still the enthusiasm of a Holy Cross-Boston College football throng. It is history that we Won, but history will never retain a complete account of the long and arduous struggle which was waged on Fenwayls frozen turf. Holy Cross was off to a good start keeping the ball in B. C. territory throughout the first few minutes of play and by consistent crowding, forced the break which produced the only score of the game. With the score six to nothing in our favor, Phil O'Connell showed his usual sagacity and began to play a cautious game. To Ted Himmelberg, who blocked that memorable punt, and to Iim Zyntell, who recovered it across the goal line, We owe the biggest thrill of the game. In a game replete with hard tackling and brilliant running and passing, O',Connell and Garrity were out- standing figures in the Holy Cross attack, while Antos and Marr starred for B. C. It is not -our place, however, to chronicle the achievements of individuals. We, who are mem- bers of the great mass of spectators, are impressed perhaps, by the feats of a few men, entirely forgetting the others who make the execution of the plays possible. The successful termination of the season placed the Hnal stamp of approval on Capt. McEwan. Never before in the history of Holy Cross football have we been successful over Harvard and Boston College in the same year. This feat coming in the first year of the new regime is trustworthy evidence of what we may expect in the future. I . I 4 Touchdown!-Boston College game.

The lure of plodding up hill and down dale is insufhcient to draw many devotees from other autumnal pleasures and the exer- cise procured in climbing daily the none too gentle slopes of Pakachoag keeps the squad down to a mere handful of valorous and plucky runners. Despite this handicap, Captain Bill Madden and his men, beat both Brown and Am- herst in dual competition and in the Harvard Open placed third to Spring- field and B.. C. The successful season was mostly due to the superb running of a pair of Sophomores-Ken Cuneo and Matty Blake. Against Amherst, Cuneo finished first and the long-striding Blake was the first to breast the tape in the meet with Brown. However, the consistent scoring of Bill Madden and the rest of the squad accounted for victories. A fine nucleus is left to Coach Sullivan around which to develop a fine group of harriers for next season. ,. I A . TRACK SQUAD I H Q 283 Track Bart Sullivanls Hiers had more than their share of mishaps and still are able to feel proud of a very successful indoor track season. Throughout the winter they competed in the fastest of collegiate company and carried home victory after victory, although the nemesis, which hounded the team during the previ- ous season, still was in evidence. A poor start was anticipated at the Brooklyn Knights of Columbus games, because of a lack of time for conditioning, yet Captain George Morin finished third in the special sprint series and Bernie McCafferty, although thrown off stride by a 'bad fall, flashed around the boards to win a second place in the fea- tured Brooklyn 600. At the Brooklyn College meet the one-mile relay easily defeated George- town- and New York University. Running on a slow track and handicapped by flat soles, the Purple speedsters registered 3.26 for the mile--by far the fast- est time of the night. In this event two Sophomores made their first appear- ance for Holy Cross and although it was their debut in collegiate competition, both Bob Tierney and Bill Coakley handled the baton like veterans. CROSS-COUNTRY SQUAD 2 84 The next competition found the relay team leading Harvard to the tape at the Boston Knights of Columbus games. The time, 3.27, was but fractions behind the track record. McCafferty, running anchor for the relay, was unable to do himself justice in the Prout Memorial 500 and was forced to relinquish the trophy which he had captured the two previous seasons. In this same meet the two-mile relay gained a third place in their event and Dona Maynard won a like place in the 300. Art McDonald was barely nosed out in the hurdles by Monty Wells, world champion. Once again misfortune frowned on the Purple fliers, when in the Millrose games in New York, Bill Coakley fell while rounding a turn. However, the very next week-end, the relay staged a brilliant comeback by racing to a new track record at the Boston Arena. Boston College, furnishing the competition, was unable to keep up the fast pace and it is not rash to state that if the team was pushed, the new record would have been much lower. E P BILL MADDEN, Captain of Cross-Cozmtry 285 Meanwhile, Bernie McCafferty, although in poor condition, due to a week's absence from school, showed his heels to a fast field in the 500 at the Seton Hall games. The relay, also returning to New York, gained another trophy by defeating Georgetown in a special race. In their last race of the season the relay team went down to defeat, but not without glory. For the second time in as many years the Purple relay chased opponents to a new mile record. Barely nipped by Harvard last year, they forced Pennsylvania to lower the record by nearly three seconds to conquer them. Penn. Hnished in 3:l7.8, Holy Cross in 3.18.2 At the same meet, Ned Flanagan placed fifth in the shot put, while Art McDonald was unfortunate enough to fall while leading the field in the hurdles. Theindoor season closed at the New York K. of C. games with McCafferty winning the special 600 and McDonald placing second in the hurdles. By far, the most satisfying aspect of the entire season, was the acclaim granted the Crusader runners by all the loyal fans who witnessed them in action. Bernie McCafferty augmented the fame which he has won since Freshman year when he first Hashed to brilliance on the boards. The popularity of the Purple teams in New York reflects favorably upon Bart Sullivan, whose constant vigilance and unequalled ability makes stars from men who are mostly of average ability. MILE RELAY SQUAD 286 With the advent of the outdoor season Holy Cross looks to new fame in track. Ned Flanagan captured second place in the hammer at the Penn Relays. The usual weakness of the Cross teams in field events is not anticipated this year for in these events Coach Sullivan has Baker, Cavalieri, Flanagan, Am- brose and Walker in the weights, Morin and Ambrose in the javelin 5 McNally in the high jump and once again Morin in the pole vault. On the cinders, McCaHerty, Holland, Perry, Maher, I-Iegarty, Cuneo, Madden and Blake can adequately be counted upon for the two furlongs or over. Art McDonald and Bob Tierney are sure point scorers in the hurdles and Morin, Winslow and Coakley are ranked as three of the best sprinters in New England. Furthermore, the prospect for coming years is brightened by an exception- ally brilliant Frosh team, which boasts of the all-around versatility of Al Morin and Ruskowski in track events and an unusually good field of weight tossers.

Q l E l , . xg ? . Baseball The baseball season got under way with the call for battery candidates early in February. The pitchers and catchers toiled alone until far enough advanced to insure no injuries to those arms which would have to bear the brunt of the season's work. Batting practice commenced in March and by the end of the month Coach Barry was having practice games on Fitton Field. The team made a satisfactory start, beating Villanova seven to two, to inaug- urate the southern trip. Against Seton Hall, the Crusaders seemed to slump and this condition was also noticeable in the N. Y. U. game when they were shut-out. The home season opened successfully with a victory over Brown and it seemed as if the 1931 edition of the Barrymen had come into its own. Ioy was short- lived, however, for when Seton Hall played their return game they accom- plished what we had come to deem a well nivh impossible feat. For the first time in four years a Holy Cross baseball team had lost a two-game series It seems that this defeat was the spur that the team needed, for since then they have routed the opposition decisively Brown lost a second Game 10 2 Niemiec makes a putout at third 2 t my . f .Fu ll in . .

Mahoney repeated the following week with a nicely pitched game against St. Bonaventure which was won by the lopsided score of 17-1. Fordham was met and conquered when Capt. Normie Sims pitched shut-out ball while his teammates were manufacturing nine runs from the combined offerings of-three Fordham pitchers. At New Haven the team played the best ball of the young season and really looked like worthy emulators of the great teams of the past. In fourteen innings of play the Crusaders never faltered and finally won out on a wild pitch and a timely single. With the marked improvement the team has shown in self-confidence and batting ability since the opening of the season, we feel that the Eastern lnter-Col- legiate Championship will be safe for another year. Nine times out of the past eleven years the pennant has Huttered from the Fitton Field flag pole and under the able tutelage of Coach Barry it seems destined to become our perma- nent possession. Barry has the uncanny ability of consistently developing championship teams. As we go to press the string of triumphs has been lengthened by an impressive victory scored over Georgetown. Friedrich gave every indication that he has rounded into shape and with three competent pitchers to face the opposition our prospects seem very bright.

B 303 SGWNAN L I CAPTAIN JAMES FARRELL MANAGER KINNEY, COACH REED, CAPTAIN FARRELL Basketball The Varsity Basketball team, handicapped by a continual absence of one or anoth er of its most brilliant members, played through a season which can only be classed as fairly successful. There is no doubt butthat the season's record would have been nearly perfect if Dame Misfortune had not hovered so consistently over the Purple squad. Added to this was the fact that the cramped confines of the home court left the team a bit confused when playing on a large surface. The Rutgers-Holy Cross contest provided the most thrills for the spectators at home and showed the Crusaders overcoming a slight lead and emerging victorious in the closing minutes of play. In this game the consistent brilliance of Captain Farrell accounted for the victory. Great ability was also manifested by Ted Leary, captain-elect for next year, Don Fitzgerald and Luke Driscoll who were the most colorful and popular players of the squad, Hickey, Donovan, Nicholson and Sch-oenrock. As only two seniors will be lost to the team by graduation, Coach lack Reed will have an excellent nucleus for next year. Dare Team H.C. Op.

Due to the earnest desire of Captain Iohn MacLaughlan and Man- 9 ager George Cote to bring the foremost college tennis clubs in the east to Holy Cross, the varsity racquet men are in the midst of the most stren- uous campaign the school has ever known. Matches have been carded with such formidable ' opponents as Harvard, present intercollegiate champions, City College of New York, Brown and Boston College. For the first time in history the candidates worked out in the baseball cage. A large group of enthusiastic players answered the call for pre- liminary try-outs early in ,March. The playing surface was uneven but the men more than made up for that defect by the seriousness of their application to practice. ln all some fifteen candidates reported for these pre-season exercises. When the men reported back from the Easter holidays they found the varsity courts in excellent shape for the season. Due to a sincere desire to give every man who wished to come out for the varsity squad a fair chance to make one of the six positions open to com- petition, Captain Maclsaughlan inaugurated the ladder system, whereby the last three men must meet any eligible player who wishes to challenge their right to those places. Conse- quent upon this anouncement a lively scramble ensued for the honor of representing Holy Cross upon the tennis team. It soon became evident that the burden of defending the Purple would fall upon Captain MacLaughlan, lim Nicholson, Iack, Keenan, Tom Carroll and Dud Foy. The sixth position remained in doubt until after the season was well inaugurated. A fierce play-off ensued with Iack Cahill finally barely nosing out Frank Dowd for the last place on the team. Dowd will remain with the squad, however, in the capacity of alternate. Simultaneously with the varsity the freshmen reported to Manager Cote for preliminary practice. There is some very promising material on the freshman squad: Such men as Power, O'Shea, and Healey look like prospective varsity material. Power is thelrunner-up to the school tennis champion, O'Shea and Healey form a smooth doubles pair. When the day for the opening match with St. Mark's arrived Manager Cote picked a teamdcomci posed of Paul Power, lim O'Shea, Larry Healey, Bill Findlan, Frank O.Br1en an li Moline to represent the class of 1934. This outfit scored an impressive victory over t C prep schoolers and seem headed for many future triumphs.

A much keener interest in the game has been shown by both students and faculty and if the pres- ent interest increases, golf will be a sport of much interest to all at the school. With the increased number of men available for the team and the calibre they consist of, we look forward to a most suc- cessful season. From last year's team as a nucleus three letter men remain in Cap- tain Tom Earls, Doyle and Fay, all of whom have had wide experience in colle- giate golf competition. The addition to the squad of Lally, Baldwin, Casey, Fu- ray, Collins, Dwyer and Curry will bring about a well balanced team, all the mem- bers of which are clever golfers. . As this sport is rapidly 'gaining interest . in colleges, it is indeed quite fitting that Holy Cross should make this advanced step. This yearls schedule, composed mostly of matches played in the Eastern Intercollegiate Golf Association, of which Holy Cross has been a member for six years, is the most ambitious ever undertaken by a Crusader team. A note that is worth mentioning is that this association contains teams from the lead- ing colleges of the east, all of which have teams of the highest calibre. The schedule is as follows: Worcester Tech, Harvard3 BQW.d01113 Daft' mouth5 M, I, T., Georgetown, Princeton, Pennsylvania, Williams , Yale, Brown, Amherst, B.

COACH JACK .REED Unsuccessful games however, are of n Fortunately the success of the Freshman team is not measured .in games won and lost, for if it were, we could not say much about our Frosh football club. The Freshmen played a very short schedule con- sisting of only four games and though unable to break into the win column they held their oppon- ents to low scores. A scoreless tie with St. Iohnls Prep. at Danvers furnished the highlight of the sea- son's play and showed the Crusad- er Cubs at their best. Against Dean Academy they were so unfortunate as to lose the game in the closing minutes of play on an unexpected forward pass. Final score 6-0. Worcester Academy eked out a 6-O victory in this same fashion. Boston College Freshmen won the final game of the season 21-6, after a gruelling struggle. o import providing that the players develop as the season progresses. Under the careful tutelage of Iack Reed, a number of men showed to good advantage and Capt. McEwan should find no end-of Varsity material .among them. On the line Drescher, Billings, Reese and Griffin will be heard from next fall and Iarvis, Tamulevich and Bowen should aid the backfield situation. 302 R 4 y .

Two of their victories how- ever, were gained at the expense of Assumption College. Against Becker's Business College, they were not so fortunate, breaking even in two games. The Freshmen trailed Richland, Worcester Trade, Dean and Boston College Fresh- men. These contests were hard fought, but on no occasion were the Cubs out- gamed. It is possible that some of these men may break into the Varsity lineup next winter, but with the nucleus lack Reed has left from this year, their work will have to be brilliant. ' aking into the BASEBALL It is too early to attempt an estimate of the ability of the Freshman baseball players. Starting out with a victory over St. Mark's, they lost the next four games to Worcester Academy, Dean, St. Iohn's Prep and Samuel Iohnson Aca- demy. ln each game they have shown marked improvement, losing the last two by small scores, 2-1 and 3-1 respectively. W Coach Barry, We believe, will be Well fortified with reservematerial next spring. Potentially this year's team measures up to the high standard ofother years and we venture to say that the majority of the remaining games will be victories. ' FRILSI-IMAN FooT1sALL SQUAD 303 l INT! llilllvlllll Ili! flifllillllilflll For the first time in the history of the College, an extensive program of intramural sports was developed this year by a newly-formed organization, the Students' Athletic Council, with Rev. Maurice V. Dullea, S.I., as Moderator. Throughout the college year, from September until Iune, there was never a period when at least one sport did not hold the attention of the student body. In previous years, a few games of interclass football and about a dozen basketball con- tests were all that Holy Cross could boast of in the line of formal intramural competition. There was an urgent need for a system of student-controlled intramural athletics, and this necessity was answered last September by the formation of a governing committee of students, one representative from each class. The members of the Students' Athletic Council this year were: George Havens, '3l, chairman, Thomas Trainor, '32, Charles Callahan, '33, and William O'Neill, '34. Classes had hardly resumed their normal routine when a soccer league, a new sport at Holy Cross, was formed late in September. A field was laid out on the hill above the college buildings, and here the soccerists disported three or four afternoons each week. Toward time close of the season, the race narrowed down to two combines, the Senior and Iunior elevens, and the Beaven contingent 'finally romped olif with the championship after a terrific cQosing struggle. INTRAMURAL ATHLETIC COUNCIL 3G4 Fitt-on Field, in the meantime, was the scene of four bitter interclass football battles on Sunday mornings. After the Iunior team had taken the measure of the Senior aggregation all eyes awaited the Freshman-Sophomore contest. Three fairly-even combats were waged by these elevens in rather indifferent weather, but the final score was always the same 0-0. As the last scoreless tie had been battled out with snow on the surrounding hillsides, it became evident that time would not suffice for the completion of the series and the footj ball championship league had to be abandoned. i With frigid, wintry weather already manifesting itself, the Students' Athletic Council organized a hockey league for the interclass title. Since the rink was kept in fine condiQ tion throughout the season, the pucksters took advantage of the invariably smooth ice and waged many a tense struggle. Injuries took their toll in the Senior sextet, but n the Lords of Loyola remained in the running and emerged in second place. Titular honors went to the Sophomore team, which had vanquished the other entries with monotonous regularity, and had concluded its season with an unblemished record. The victorious puck-chasers were awarded Intramural Sports Charms by The Tomahawk. Besides the regular interclass basketball series, which has been an annual winter fea- ture on Mt. St. Iames for many years, a second and much larger league, the inter-corridor league, was arranged by the enterprising Council. The sixteen corridor teams were divided into five groups, and after a long series, the winning quintet of each group entered the Finals. Loyola III was the ultimate champion five, with but a single defeat to mar its record. ' evertheless, From the outstanding players in the inter-corridor league, interclass quintets were chosen, and again the Seniors displayed their court superiority by' sweeping through the competition to another title without once being subdued. At the conclusion of the sea- son, the members of the two victorious teams were presented Intramural Sports Charms. So much interest in handball was manifest about the campus that a tournament was arranged to decide the doubles supremacy of the College. In order to organize the com- . - PIONS SENIOR BASKETBALL 'IILAM-INTRAMURAL CHAM 305 petition along definite lines, the play. was conducted within the individual' classes. After the preliminary series, the class, champion pairs met for the college championship. Resuming its activities after the spring recess, the Students' Athletic Council formulated a brilliant program for the spring season, embracing baseball, tennis, and track. Unpre- cedented interest in intramural baseball was evident when fourteen teams were enrolled, with a total of about 250 players. Two diamonds were laid out on the Hill, and both Alumni and Fitton Fields were utilized whenever possible. In this way, six and some- times seven games were played on fair Sundays, with two every weekday. Although rafn generally washed out two or more contests each week, as many as sixteen games were often fought out during the course of seven days. It has been customary to hold an intramural tennis tourney in the fall for many years, but the main purpose of this competition is to select players for the varsity team. Besides this tournament, the Council in April organized another series of matches, and singles, for the intramural championship, and such interest was shown that courts had. to be reserved in advance to enable the schedule to continue. both doubles in this sport athletics, the -In accordance with its plan to give everyone an opportunity to indulge in Councilheld a mammoth track and field meet -on Ascension Thursday.

V L v I Scientific Society The scholastic year 1930-31 was one of the most successful during the career of the Scientific Society. The purpose of the society is to foster interest in timely scientific topics by bi-monthly meetings at which lectures are delivered by various members. All the lec- tures during the past year were concerned with the held of radio The subjects were so chosen so that the fundamentals were First explained and that a hrm foundation was laid for the more intricate subjects which were dealt with in the latter part off the year. Lec- tures were delivered by H. Goett, I. G. Sliney, I. F. Finn, VV. L. Besselman and I. M. Stevens. In order that the whole student body might benefit, open meetings were held at which well-known scientists in the field of radio delivered lectures on various phases of the subject.

Clifford, Assistant Prefectg Iohn F. Lally, Second Assistant Prefectg Daniel Honan, Secretary. ' 322 Sanctuary Society The St. Iohn Berchman Sanctuary Society has had, during,fl930-31, one of the most active years of its entire existence on the Hill. Besides its. primary activity, which is to supply Mass servers in both chapels from about six-forty-Five until eight oiclock each morn- ing and to see to it that other ceremonies conducted in Memorial Chapel are properly attended, it has carried on as closely related activitywhich is becoming more important each year. I Presiding over this society of one hundred and twenty-hve members during the past year has been: Robert D. Whitfield, '31, President and First Senior Assistant, Frank I. Sullivan, Ir., '31, Master of Ceremonies, Iohn I. Morgan, '31, Second Senior Assistant, Kenneth F. Rowe, '32, Secretary, Treasurer and Firstvlunior Assistant, and Anthony F.

The Master of Ceremonies makes all appointments and with the two Senior Assistants takes charge of all ceremonies in Memorial Chapel. In Community Chapel, the servers are directed by the two Iunior Assistants. The 'Sanc- tuary Society Frlls an important place on the Hill and has constantly striven to perform its duties faithfully and well. ' A A 323 Debating The season of 1930-1931, was for the forensic societies of Holy Cross, a very substantial success. Mr. H. P. Collins, SJ., succeeded Mr. I. P. Flanagan, SJ., in guiding the des- tinies of Holy Cross debating. At once a circular letter was addressed to the leading col- leges of the country inviting them to Worcester for' debates. In this way the College satis- fred its obligationsito its sister institutions. The Freshman society began the year under the guidance of Mr. Carroll, S.I., where a number of promising young men were unearthed for the future of Holy Cross forensic activity. Mr. Callaghan, SJ., assumed charge of the B. I. F. Debating Society, with Robert Whitfield as its President. Mr. Collins S. I., Senior Moderator, succeeded to the Philomath with Owen McGivern as its President. On December 9th, a team of Harvard debaters came to Worcester, to meet Holy Cross upon the platform. The question for discussion read: Resolved, That the United States should enter the VVorld Court under the terms of the Root Protocol of 1929. Harvard chose the aflirmative and Holy Cross the negative. The decision of the judges went to Holy Cross. The debaters were: Edward B. Hannify, ,335 Daniel I. O'Neil, '31, and Gwen P. McGivern, ,31. 324 1 I I i l l I The same group of debaters journeyed to New York, late in Ianuary, as the guests of Fordham University. The World Court question was the subject of debate, but this time, Holy Cross chose to defend the affirmative and Fordham argued the negative. In the enem 's territory, they secured the palm of victory from a committee of judges, headed by Y the well known attorney, George Gordon Battle. ' 7 , ' . ' In the month of March, Holy Cross was host to Loyola University, of Chicago, Uni- versity of Florida and Canisius College. Edward B. Hannify, '33 and Cwen P. McGivern, '31 t ed to ether against Loyola. They upheld the affirmative of the World Court , eam g question and won by the unanimous decision of the judges. It was not so easy to over- come the verbal onslaughts of the Florida men, but Iames.Carroll, '31 and Iames Sullivan, '31, were finally successful and won a well-deserved victory. ,The debate with Canisius was the only setback of the season. The two teams met in Springlield under the auspices 'of the Knights of Columbus, whose hospitality and courtesy will ever be remembered. Before a capacity crowd, Harry Kirwin, '33, Raymond Leddy, '33 and Daniel O'Neil, '31, lost to the gentlemen from Buffalo. - nd a notable conquest of Boston There was t e A ' ' ' d d Moline '34, Thomas Brosnan, '33 College by our Iunior Varsity-composed of E war , ' 3 ' est between the Varsity team and Boston and Edward Hidalgo, 33.

OCONNELL, :31 SAsszstzng Managers THOMAS A. CALLAHAN, '31 I .2 , CHARLES I. MURPHY, '32 ' Llbmflfmf I ' I , An unprecedented number of applicants for the Holy Cross Musical Club last Septem- ber, gave promise of an interesting and enthusiastic season for the Club, but the actual completion oflthe SeasOn'S schedule more 'than gratified all pre-season hopes and desires. Playing and singing their way into the hearts of their audiences wherever they travelled, the Furple musicians this year succeeded in carrying the. reputation, which Holy Cross musicians have enjoyed in the past, to new and enviable heights. . 'i Under the capable direction of I. Edward Bouvier, who led the men not only in song, but in personality and in fun as well, two successful and thoroughly enjoyable 'trips were taken by the Club, in addition to several one-night concerts, which were none the less important. .1 . . Early in October the seemingly long and unending rehearsals were begun and three times every week, the musicians assembled to practice the selections which were later to bring them much well deserved praise. The hrst project of the year was undertaken on December second, when the Glee Club and the Band recorded some of the more popular of the school songs on a Victor record. The Gleo Club rendered the Varsity Song and the Alma Mater, while on the reverse side, the Band recorded a medley of songs, includ- ing For Holy Cross, Linden Lane, Chu-chu, Rah, Rah, and Mingle Your Cheers. The enterprise marked the first time that any of the' School songs had been recorded and ' ' ' ' ' 't s a Suc- ,in view of the fact that the musicians had been together Such a short time, 1 wa cessful venture. The first concert of the year was given a I . l I ary 27. Four days later, the annual mid-term tour started. The itinerary of the trip included concerts in New York City, Albany, Northampton, and Fitchburg and in each of their appearances the musicians established their reputation as finished artists. . The program presented at these concerts opened with Herbert's overture,. American Fantasie, a stirring number typically portraying the morenpopular of the national songs. ln this number, the Philharmonic Orchestra made its initialappearance to the audience and if first impressions are truly lasting, the Orchestra need never' fear abcout the impresi sion they left with their hearers. Such famous and popular selections as Two Guitars, 337 t the State Sanatarium in Rutland, Mass., Ianu- Black Eyesv and Valse des Fleurs QTschaikowsky,s Nutcracker Suitenj were rendered in a manner which merited praise for the musicians and distinction for their untiring director. The New Moonu was the umasterpiecen of the orchestra, as it was a singularly fine number well-executed. A P - The Glee Club made its appearance to the tune of H-oiah, Holy Crossf, and' followed this with the Varsity Songf' The third number in this impressive opening group was a martial song To Arms. A trio of 6'Sylvia,,, Forgotten,, and Morning,' comprised the next group by the Glee Club, in this group there was evidenced an artistic sense of har- mony, variation and control, which is rarely found in amateur fields. '6Song of the Vikings, O'Donnell Aboo, The Long Day Closesf, Adoramus Tef, 6'Kyrie,' fGou- nod's Second Massj, the ever popular Bells of Saint Mary's and the impressive In a Monastery Gardenf, which was presented by the entire Musical Club as a Hnale, completed the repertoire of the Glee Club. The numbers were well chosen to satisfy even the most diversified tastes of music lovers and there was not an audience which was not impressed by the versatility of the musicians. Much of color andlvariety was added to the program by the solo work of several of the talented men. Daniel I. O'Neil, ,3l, who acted as concert master, played violin solos, Edward Xiques was saxophone soloist, Charles H. Doherty was Xylophone soloist. Ray- mond I. Howe, '32, baritone soloist and Ioseph A. Reynolds, ,32, tenor soloist, also con- tributed solos which will be remembered as typifying the superb talent of the Club' and 7 the ovations which the soloists merited gave evidence that their efforts were always well received. 338 F l 1 l 1 l 4 'i 1 I 1 1 l 1 1 1 Q I L 1 I 1 1 1 1 1 1 I 1 1 l 1 . The same program was presented with marked success in sa series of concerts which included one in Providence, February 8, which was broadcast over AVVIAR of the National Broadcasting Company, one in Springfield, February 125 one at lvVcston College, March 25, and one in Fenwick Hall, March 27. ' The Easter Tour, taken this year, was a welcome return to the former custom of Holy Cross Musical Clubs and its success was unprecedented. Starting in Stamford, Conn., on April 7, the Club gave concerts on successive evenings in Stamford, Vlfaterbury, Danbury, Newark, N. I., and Paterson, N. In Newark, the Holy Cross Club gave a joint concert with the Glee Club from St. EliZabeth's College. This innovation was afmost impressive occasion and it will linger long in the minds of the audience as well as in the hearts of the musicians as an evening when harmony of song and sentiment prevailed to furnishija most enjoyable time to all concerned. A return trip by boat lent the climactic touch 'to this, the most successful trip of the year. 5 On the day after their return to Mount Saint Iames, the Glee Club and the Purple Crusaders dance orchestra journed to Woonsocket, R. I. On April 21, Lowell cordially received the Purple musicians and on May 10, Iordan Hall in Boston, was the scene of the annual joint concert by the Musical Clubs of Boston College and Holy Cross. The Holy Cross Philharmonic Orchestra was not present at this concert, but the Glee Club and the instrumental soloists who did appear, nobly upheld the honor of the school before their rival musicians. The final concert of the year was held in Gloucester, Mass., where another success climaxed what has been an important milestone in the history of Holy Cross' Musical Clubs. 339 To the Purple Crusaders Dance Orchestra must be given great credit for the rhythmic strains of dance music which they provided the dancers at the conclusion of each concert. Under the direction of the inimitable Fred S. Mirliani, '32, the dance orchestra this year outdid all its competitors of former years, and the subdued rhythm lent a touch of perfec- tion to many an enjoyable evening for the dancers who swayed and dreamed to their tunes. For the latter half of the year, the program of both the Philharmonic Orchestra and the Glee Club underwent small, but signihcant changes. A liveliness of foreign music was supplied by the renditions of uln a Chinese Temple Garden and In a Persian Market Qlietelbyj by the orchestra, While the Glee Club in its part sang a trio of Russian Folk Songs: FireHies,', Song of the Life-boat Men, in which Ioseph F. Austin, '31, appeared as tenor soloist, and At Father's Door. These numbers injected a liveliness to the pro- gram Which found favor with all who were fortunate enough to hear them. Chu-chu, Rah, Rah, MiserereH CAllegri5, and Trun'1peter,' Were further additions to the reper- toire of the Glee Club, Alfred F. Davino, ,34, played a trumpet solo in the last of these numbers. i To neglect to mention the Faculty Assistant and the student officers and managers would be to pass over those in whose hands lay the destinies of the Musical Club and under Whose guidance the success of the year was achieved. To Father Gilleran, who accom- panied the musicians on all their journeys, goes a tribute of praise and admiration for the eHf1cient manner in which he supervised the arranging of concerts and the materialization of his Well-laid plans. To the managers is due great credit for their supervision of the travel schedule and their able assistance to the musicians, and to the student oflicers falls the honor and title of guiding by their example and encouragement the actions of their songmates. 340 Dramatics HOLY CROSS PLAYERS 1930-31 Dramatic Director Business Director Stage Manager .

SAIXIUEL SIxII'1'H,,32 Under the intensity of the directive genius of Rev. Iohn P. Flanagan, S.I., the dramatic activities of the Holy Cross students Hourished through a successful year. The dramatic society, under the organization nameof The Holy Cross Players produced three thoroughly creditable presentations during the past season-. First a tour-act play, HR. I., which was an adaptation from Roi Cooper Megrue's Under Cover, secondly, the One-Act Play Night, which savv the finished interpretation of Middlemas' and Hallis g'The Valiant, Sir Iames Barrie's The Willw and Lady Greg'ory,s The Rising of the Moon. Allithree one-act Offerings were masterpieces that required expert rendition and acting. The judg- ment Of the audience was that nothing could be wanting in the manner or effect of the presentations. And as a climax to the yearns achievements the end of April brought with it a Shakespearean tragedy, L'Iulius Caesar, whose best recommendation is the fact that the box-Office increased noticeably the sale of tickets On the second night, which goes to prove that the First-night audience approved and urged others to see the splendid produc- tion performed in the Worcester Theatre. . -' THE HOLY CROSS PLAYERS In a Modern Drama ' 'Q CCR.

I, a modern drama of unceasing popularity was a fitting vehicle in which the newly formed society took its bow, before a crowded audience in Fenwick Hall. The per- formance of the players was a result of seven weeks of careful training under the experi- enced tutelage of Father Flanagan, SJ. This moderator-director has had wide and thor- ough familiarity with all the phases of amateur presentations. Under his pointed criti- cisms the members of the cast came to know the most minute shadings of the characters which they were portraying. With his hearty encouragement and individual co-operation, a solidly functioning group of comparative strangers to the boards became finished players. The star of the first production was Thomas Dwyer, who played the part of Stephen Denby. With no previous college experience whatever, Dwyer to-ok possession of his char- acter Denby, and wielded it in such a manner as to bring out his own personal charms, together with the individual perculiarities required in the portrayal of the hero of the play. Playing Robert Cartwright, the part adapted, Hampsey gave a good account of himself in a role none too easy in portrayal. The girls of the play were ably and well presented by W'illiam Trivett as a hard-boiled smuggler at the Customs Cifice, and also as the wife of Michael Harrington, a rich Long Islander. Iames Deeley, taking care of the two female roles of Amy Cartwright and Nora Rutledge, displayed unusual powers of stage poise and dramatic sense. Don McCann, playing opposite Deeley in the ingenue, almost stole the show. Andy Burke lent the comic relief with such effect that the drama was almost upset into a comedy for a while. Another find unearthed in this first activity of the society was that of Robert Lally, who played the part of Daniel Taylor. This was the Hrst time Lally had appeared before an audience and his absolute freedom from the eFfects of stage fright is little less than miraculous. His presence and his natural performance showed a complete mastery of the difficult and vacillating personality of the Customs Inspector, who was in the business for the money it could bring in the line of graft. It would seem that the greatest thrill the director gets out of his coaching is to develop potentialities and uncover natural talent. Throughout the year he has followed this prac- tice with gratifying results. 342 IAMES DYKE, rz pr1's0ner WARDEN HOLT . . FATHER DALY . IOSEPHINE PARIS . . A'PRISON ATTENDANT MR. PHILIP Ross MRS.

ANDREXX' BURKE, The one-act plays also brought forth previously unknown ability in the person of Iames Sullivan, Owen McGivern, Harry Furay, Thomas Caulfield and Raymond Howe. Dwyer played up to expectations and Healy ran true to form according to his standards estab- lished in last year's productions. Healy is president of the society and has long been con- nected with dramatic activities, both in high school and here at the Cross. Through his four years he has given many excellent examples of dramatic talent. lim Deeley, who has been continually cast in the feminine lead roles, deserves credit, b-oth for his acting and for his activity in the society itself. He was one of the most energetic members of the organ- ization, having a hand in almost every line of work that-had to be accomplished. McGivern's portrayal of the valiant, condemned man was fraught with throbbing nd action made hirn make of his part a solemn pathos. His flair for the dramatic in word a masterpiece. He was inspiring. Hidalgo first revealed himself as the candidate for next year's stellar positions, in his creditable performance of the intricate character, the old law- Will. Sam Smith, as the clerk, did Well in the character part. The One-Act Plays were additions of so much more glory to the, by that time, firmly established fame of the society, for finished productions, and worthwhile performances. yer in The 343 ' C'??f':f QIXEE? , px:-Tsai I I .I . .rf si THE HOLY CRCSS PLAYERS In a Shakespearean Tragedy HIULIUS CAESAR After the Stage Version of Edwin Booth APRIL 29-30, 1931 WCRCESTER THEATRE CAST OF CHARACTERS IULIUS CAESAR, Perpetual Dictator ..... .

The show was a gala affair, fit for the closing of a more than successful year. Many Seniors made their adieux to amateur productions in it, many made both their debuts and their adieux. Sixty players on a crowded stage and an audience that saw not the cramped conditions, but lived the tense magnum opus of the Avon Dramatist. . -. . A mob that would do credit to the masterful direction of the coach alone, in its powerful and feeling, tif a bit too well-orderedj, reactions .... A group of principals, so ably trained that it would have been anQunfeeling, practical-minded idiot that could find any major Haws in the general effect produced by the whole play. The expounding of the powerful Marc Antony by Owen McGivern was impressive. The fire of Edward Hidalgo as Cassius, on the first night and Casca on the second night was remarkable. This rising Sophomore's dramatic talent seems to admit no bounds. Much shall be expected of him within the next two years, and he has much to give. His ver- satility won the admiration of all who saw both performances, and his genius commanded the respect of those who saw him but once. Here isa future Hampden. Harry Kirwin alternated in these parts with Hidalgo and lent variety and cleverness. Dramatics, as an extra-curricular activity has assumed enormous proportions within this past year, enlisting the interest of some eighty-odd students. The ability, energy and man- ner of the coach, Fr. Flanagan has been substantially the cause of this interest, since it has been fully proven by him that anyone can try out for a part, and if he has anything in him at all, he has as much of a chance at getting the part as the most favored member of the society itself. Impartiality and an unceasing search for talent has brought to the fore many students who would have remained hidden if favoritism or precedent had been the stand- ard of choice in selection of casts. ' Credit must be given also to the Business Moderator, Father Edward M. Sullivan, S.I., and the Business Manager, Ed Keenan and all those stage, costume and property men without whose constant aid and eflicient handling of their work, the productions could not have-attained the almost professional effect they did.. Especially is recognition to be given to Charlie Murphy, '31, the stage manager, Ralph Thompson, ,33, technician and Ray O. Martin, ,31, Costume Manager. ' A I l 346 rl' .

Yeah, this p JUDGE THROUGH THE REC HALL WITH GUN AND CAMERA CCSHALL we join the ladies? I asked my friend Kermit, as we stood in the library of Prattney Manor. Kermit was a tall, dark blond with round shoulders and tricky knees. His eyes were like ivory when he smiled, his ears were a watery blue and his two chins, which didn7t match very well, gave him a sinister expression. Ah, bother the ladiesf' he, re- torted impatiently, what's say, old fellow, to an hour on the river in my new punt? We could hear the music floating softly out of the ball- room as we sauntered through the pergola and on down to the river. Do you like to punt? I queried a little wistfully. Oh yes, replied my host, I was the best punter in my class at Baliol. Then with the advent of the lateral pass, punting lost favor. I lost my punting pole and Baliol lost mef' By this time we were on the river, gliding along peacefully. Suddenly a woman's scream rent the air and sent the echoes reverberating. down in back of the stables, across the rail- road tracks and on to the Provi- dence Road. Great Scottla' I shouted. Great Scott! Kermit cried. A Ditto! I replied. The same for me H returned Ker- 0 I , mit, but make mine milk instead of coffee. It seemed an eternity before we reached the shore. Quite out of breath we dashed into the library. The music had ceased and an eerie silence hovered over the Prattney estate. I had a feeling that some- thing had stopped the gayety of the dance, something like a woman's scream or something, but I wasn't sure. . I was accepted as an amateur de- tective at the time, so I proceeded to take charge. Up with your hands, I cried menacingly, all of you. Here you-line up there!,' The sight of my small, but wicked By LEGS DIAMOND looking automatic with its New De- parture coaster brake made the guests huddle in one corner. I glanced furtively about the room for clues. There was a huge blood- stain on the rug, but I chucked it aside as insignificant. I glanced at the bridge lamp and it merely low- ered its eyes guiltily. The only other clue was an ,old fountain pen, named Meadows, which had been with the family for years. Did I hear a woman scream? I demand- ed testily. QI have found in my ex- perience that testily demanding is the best form of demanding, that is of course, if you want to go in for demanding seriouslyj Our charming hostess stepped for- ward, Why no, Mr. Fnuh, no one screamed in heref, said m'lady a little stilfly. QI learned at the in- quest that she had been playing handball all morningj My humblest apologies, I re- plied, I thought I heard a woman scream. In less time than it takes to tell my host and I were back on the river gliding peacefully along. Sud- denly a scream rent the air and sent the echoes scurrying down toward Leominster. Great Scottln I shouted. Oh no! Kermit snarled, we're not going all through that againf' We just reached the library, be- fore the police arrived. 'On the floor we saw the twisted form of Henry Knights of Ohio. He was one'of the Knights of Columbus. I gritted my teeth, and almost gave vent to the anger which raged within me. Someone did shout, I sobbed and then I turned to the inspector, There, theref' I said soft- ly, get a hold on yourself old manf' Don't 'there, there, mef' growled the inspector, you're the one that,s sobbing. 1 So I am, I replied somewhat confusedly. I guess I got my lines mixed. And I burst out crying again. 9 2 Let no one leave this room, cut in the inspector sternly, we stay here until someone breaks. Oh, a murder mystery, sobbed Kermit hysterically, mystery in Prattney Manor. Oh for shame! For shame! You think it's a mystery now? was the inspector's curt rejoinder, wait 'til you see it tomorrow! Why, they put me on a case once where a man was missing and they never found him! They couldn't find me for five years!,' Gf a sudden, Lady Lasher-an elderly person, who used to give swimming instructions at White City three days a week-fshe later moved to Michigan and there she lives to this day? of a sudden, I say, Lady Lasher groaned' and pitched forward 'on her face. It wais the prettiest tackle I've ever seen. Then they were up again and she had the inspector on the ropes. The crowd was in a frenzy of excitement. Punch ,is bloomin' 'ead off, they shouted. The inspector was tottering now and Lasher summon- ing all her strength, leaped forward with a terrific left to the midriff and down went the inspector-a beaten mass of lifeless pulp. Pandemonial raged as they carried the inspector up to the Blue Room. Bottles were thrown into the ring and it was fully thirty minutes before order was restored. The referee stood with one arm raised aloft. He raised his megaphole: l Ladeees and gen'lemen! To- morrow night in this same hall you will have the pleasure to witness a fight' to a finish between-3' At this point Kermit's brother who had been standing to one side, quietly carving his 'initials in Lord Hellpice,s wooden leg shouted: What ho! the tally ho! The hounds sprang forward as if they had been catapulted out of a huge sling. The horses were off a split second later. 1 la w ig 5 . . 2 l E 2 l U! 5 ll I !'t ilk ii ,rg Tr ll ! !

Across the fields they swept abreast, hoofs flying, manes flying and hoofs fly- ing. One of them is down, shouted the onlookers as Lady Lasher failed to clear the third hedge. On they raced after the fox. And he was a fox tool On they thundered heed- lessly toward the last barrier, on the other side of which was a fifteen- foot water hole. Kermit's horse was growing steadily weaker, his nostrils were distended, his eyes glaring. Suddenly the last barrier loomed up. I felt myself rise sud- denly into space, counted ten slowly and distinctly and then pulled the parachute string. The great silk net fanned out in the breeze and as JUDGE the band burst into God Save the Kingf, we floated safely over that last treacherous hurdle. Hurray! Hurrayl we made it, Rossy, we made it,', I gasped. Down the home stretch I dashed neck and neck with Rossy my horse. Rossy was losing strength. We were the only two left in the race now. We were about twenty paces from the tape when I spurted forward with muscles strained, my lungs fairly bursting me asunder, and my mus- cles strained. Never yielding, we tore down the field, which was later rebuilt at great expense. Then I threw up my hands and broke the tape-no common break either, mind you, but a compound fracture and possible internal injuries. The game is over! was the cry from thousands of excited throats. The i cheerleaders, raising their hands for silence, yelled: Let's give three rahs and a tiger for the Rovell W X Boys. The cheers were given with a will and this will, together with a couple of old mortgages, will be the theme 'of our next adventure as any sneak who has read ahead well knows. But the excitement had been too much. Little black spots were danc- ing before my eyes QI learned later that they were the chorus from Brown Buddies doing a little practicing on thdir speciality tap dancej, and I lapsed into uncon- sciousness. But the captain, rush- ing over, quickly brought me to, the lieutenant brought me three and after the eighth glass of buttermilk, I was sufhciently recovered to real- ize the full portent of the astound- ing truth, and as it flashed through my bedazzled brain I found myself crying over and over, I've won, I've won, I'1l get my letter, I'l1 get my letterf, , The Brockton Fair was over!

On Humor IN the last analysis, humor is con- stituted in the appreciation of a situation which, because of a com- bination of incongruous elements provokes a person to laughter. We stand by that definition, according to that definition this parody on fudge is humorous. We laughed over it while its incongruous ele- ments were merging to an unified whole, now that its completion is assured, we can even sit back and laugh in thankfulness. ltis easy to laugh, but itis amazingly dilhcult to unearth things to laugh about. ' A year book is proverbially a col- lection of memories, wrought in the printed word, bound in luxurious covers, embossed and stamped and destined to repose in blissful peace -on library tables. At times it takes on the gloomy aspect of a mortuary chest, wherein dead things are laid to rest more or less gently, to be taken out and displayed on com- pany daysf' It was with an explicit desire to frustrate this ultimate end of year- books, that humor sections were in- vented. They were to be mental fillips, pleasing bracers of laugh-tonic to be taken periodically in doses after a heavy meal of undigestible memories. But the best laid plans of college editors rust away. Humor sections deteriorated. But this year we had to have one. The editor frownedg the edict went forth, and scores of scurrying brains tried to figure out new jokes, quipS, ideas. But with the flash of genius that makes plain men editors, THE editor, figured it out: we would parody judge. lt was a novel idea, capable of excellent treatment, and with the whole-hearted co-operatlou -of fudge himself, we feel that that excellent treatment has been actual- ized in as thoroughly brilliant a manner as could be expected in our more or less enervated condition. These examinations, you know, Faustine, will be the death of us. We don't quite know to whom this section should be dedicated. Dedicating it to anyone- at all would be' a ticklish business to begin with, as more than one touchy disposition might be inclined to take the prof-. erred honor as an insult. Yes, we have known men to be of so per- verted a sense of humor. We sincerely hope that if this parody should ever fall into the fell hands of the editors of fudgeh that they will refrain from scold- ings. Young, as we are, we are not infallible. Perhaps our satirizing has irkecl-but the good humor and excellent good sense of that 'old' satirist, 'cludge onthe Bench, will, we hope, acquit us honorably, for all of that. ' Perhaps it might not be amiss here to take formal cognizance of fudge? ardent defence of modern youth. Not at all in the spirit of humor or of satire, let it be said, but rather in the spirit of genuine thankfulness that in the midst of attackers, grown old and hoary and forgetful of their own youth, fudge still stands as a champion of that tragically-humor- ous figure, the young person, And so we have rambled on, a failing of ours when the circum- stances offer a quiet room, a smoothly-working typewriter, plen- ry of paper, and graduation two or three weeks in the offing. And so, after endless flickering pages of PIC- tures and writeups, we offeruthe rare vintage of genuine humor, yes, even 5 wit, to brace you, and us too, to say goodbye, smilingly. Fun a la Carte You really donit have to read this humor section. That fact is one of the more charming features of it. But believe us, it's good. The editors have such faith in its ulti- mate success as a classic of year-book art that it's been copyrighted, and with the benediction of our own Senator David I. Walsh, mind you. If you care for the lighter moods, then you may feast your eyes on the cartoons, jokes, and stories with the assurance that your expectations will not be gainsaid. Naturally, this PATCHER is ready to admit that other books have had virtues of amusement. This willing- ness to,concede artistry of laughter to other volumes is increased in di- rect proportion to the consciousness of the more lasting mirth of this book. Where other staffs have con- centrated on the joke of the mo- ment and sacrificed the lasting qualities of permanent wit for the passing hilariousness of a point which, when once known, amuses no more, 1931's jester ,has built a permanent edifice, laying the bricks of genuine humorous sentiment side by side, all joined with the cement of a continuous chuckle. We have no false modesty, nor yet false' pride. We know what we know and in the very -act of know- ing what we know, we know that we know what we know. When the party drags, take out the year- book, turn rapidly over the pages of irrelevant matter and treat your guests to a real livening series of laughs.

Me-morie-s ow that commencement, which N has been fittingly called the day of daze fone of the few punS which we can forgiveb is a thing .Of the past, we find that our merr10r1CS of Worcester consist of a series of incidents and happenings most typi- cal of the Heart of the4.Comrnon- wealth. Where else could be found dance ernporiums of the quality of- fered by the gracious Messrs. Hick- ey and Marshall? .The quaint and homely graciousness of the hosts proves a boon to those members of the Frosh class who have nothing to do on Saturday nights and are al- most in the clutches of that dread demon nostalgia. The polished Hoors afford a pass-key to Worces- ter society, and the friendliness and intelligence of the dancing partners reflect the charm of these Saturday Night Parties. It is even rumored that once a girl was found who could speak English without an accent. However, this is merely a rumor and we do not put any faith in its veracity. ' To the uinitiated, the dancing which the natives consider the height of perfection, is somewhat of a cross between the movements of a decapitated chicken and the ailment attributed to St. Vitus. More elo- quent than any description is the fact that in the course of an evening more wounds and scars are infiicted upon ankles and shins than are re- ceived by the entire football squad in its roughest games. And still dancing is considered one of the social graces. Ho hum! What To Do on Rainy Thursday Mornings How many of us have not experi- enced that listlessness, that feel- ing of ''well-why-don't-you-go-to- ,1 , . 1 bed, that ennui that is so prevalent, especially around 8.30 on a drizzly morning? Theuanswer is very few fand those few live on Ierorne Aven- ue, so it doesn't make much differ- encej. And now the question arises, what to do? Some who were asked, Hinched, and faltered Pris- oners, Basef' Red Rover or, in a pinch, Charades. They were all very silly suggestions of course, be- cause we really haven't the neces- sary room. Finally, Crickets -or was it 6'Nummel ?-suggested play- ing war, or, as it finally became known, Ducking the Day-duckersf, Ever since we started the game, our corridor has been the most wide- awake in Loyola, and even the Xiq- toon's average for chapel is now over 300. For the benefit of those dear readers who can't seem to climb outside of the morning egg with the usual gusto, the rules of the game are appended below. First' of all, sides must be chosen -the defenders and the attackers- or the Blue and the Red, if you wish. It is of prime importance that the attackers be not aware of their par- ticipance until the proper time ar- rives. The defenders then assume their positions, preferably on the middle corridor of a nice dormitory. They are divided into three groups, one for each turret. For ammuni. tion, the daily breakfast rations of fruit are used. For long distances apples are best, for short, heavy sal- vos, grapefruit a re preferred, though authorities dier, some advo- cating perfumed water, or disreput- able scrubbing brushes. By this time, everything is in readiness. The attackers-who, by Rule No. 1, are always day-students -now walk unconcernedly along the side of the building, right under the enemies, guns, to use a military 6 .glflff phrase. At a shrill whistle from their captain, the defenders begin firing at random, who is a very easy mark because of his heavy under- wear. After the first salvo, the enemy is usually dispersed, and all that re- mains is to be done is to compute the score, just as in bridge. Itis very easy-simply the number hit divid- ed by the number thrown. I hope the above description really does the game justice. Of course itfs n-ot exactly suited for three-room suites of the metropolitan type, but it is a god-send to people who easily tire of looking at the same old faces or chewing odds and ends out of the Boston Herald. ' Qln case the above d'oesn't fully please, a more thrilling, yet still pleasant diversion is wetting the watchman, but perhaps we had better not go into that.j A Hint WE have taken the liberty of quoting from the PAPCHER of two years back and feel that the quotation is justified by the quality of the article. In the haste to pre- pare the matter for the orals, which the faculty insist on holding, we are taking a few minutes off to help the other struggling members of the up- per classes. We offer you a solution to any difficulty thatthe examiners may force upon you in the heat of battle. Here it is: If that difiiculty is true, Scholas- tic Philosophy is in error. Atque: Scholastic Philosophy is not in er- ror. Ergo: The difficulty is false. Major: Evident. Minor: Proved by smarter men than I am, e. g. St. Thomas, Kant, Suarez, Descartes, Spinoza, Maher, Palmieri. We wish you the best of luck. Raadio A VISITOR to the campus would no doubt be quite surprised, start- led and puzzled by the re-echoing cries of Raadio, which sound from the battle-scarred ramparts of Loy- ola. An explanation would really be in order, but we must admit that after strenuous investigation, the mystery still shrouds its origin and even an etymological analysis reveals nothing. However, it is a Shibo- leth to all senior councils and activ- ities, and we have it in good authority, that it makes a good par- lor trick. The execution is indeed simple-merely throw back the head, open the mouth to its widest and yell. The volume which can be achieved is truly astounding and Nummel Connolly maintains that on one occasion he made himself audible from Worcester to Natick.

One Saturday evening at about six o'clock, a rather elderly gentleman who, incidentally, was quite well fortified against snakebite, was cross- ing through the traffic of Front and Main Streets. Halfway in his jour- ney the traffic lights flashed to red because of a general fire alarm in some sector of the city and all the traffic came to an abrupt pause- Where a moment before confusion had reigned, now everything was quiet and the old gentleman glanc- ing about a trifle puzzled, took Off JUDGE his hat and respectfully observed two minutes, of silence.

Therefore, why not a form letter which everyone could purchase and which would adequately answer all correspondence!!! Canft you- SCC the opportunities-or havenit you read this far?

This week at the Auditorium we find a crook story which is different! Yes, sez mel The name of it is The Danger Line. Briefly, there is an old man who is put in jail for stealing a horse. He really didn't steal him, he bought him and ,agreed to pay for him if he wanted him, but he didn't want him so he didn't buy him. 'He-sold him. So the day before he was to be electrocuted tfwhy they should electrocute him for stealing a horse we,don't know -but you know those vigilanteslj the warden -asked him if he had any wish before he died.. The old man says he wants to see his five sons. They are sent for. When the five sons arrive, the old man is asleep in his cell. So his youngest son shakes him gently and says, Father, we have come. And the old man looks up and says, Four of you will have pyorrheaf' Then thereis a fadeout. It's rather sad but a beau- tiful story withal. Everyone likes a story of the great Northwest or the Yukon of Web- ster Square 'n'ever'thinfl At the Rialto last week there was a picture so replete with pathos, so rich in photographic beauty and character portrayal that I recommend it highly for the grown-ups. Keep the chil- dren at home. It is a tale of a young girl named Veranina who lived on Pratt St. on the Hudson. When she was one year old, her father went to the Klondike in search of gold. While he was there someone stole his razor so he grew a long beard. Eighteen years later he returns to his home and with pounding heart he knocks on the door. Veranina opens the door and seeing the beard- ed old man she slams the door in his face. The old man, crushed by this blow, wanders ia little distance from the 18-room cottage. Then he retraces his steps and knocks again. Veranina reopens the door .impa- tiently. Veranina dear, he mut- ters, with tears in his eyes, don't you remember meP', Sure,,' replies Veranina with no little heat, you're my father, and she slams the door in his face again! lt's strange-especially when we consider the number of them-that war stories and backstage still hold the fancy of all the theatre- going public. Everyone likes to know what goes on out in the wings For those who are inter- ested, for 1151.00 at the Roxy this week there is a picture- Ex-Gum man -which tells the story of back- stage life. Of course it doesn't tell D' 'al 'I 10 everything that goes on-that's an- other storyl That will cost you s2.o0! This is the life of a song and dance man,-Eddie his name is- he's playing the Palace in New York. Every day during Eddie,s act a young girl comes down 'the aisle and sits directly in back of the or- chestra-leader until he becomes quite enamoured of her and she is that way about him. But one day she comes down the aisle and the Seat which she usually occupies is' taken. The leader, wishing to win her fa- vor turns and whispers, What is your number? She whispers back Dial 314657 So the next day the leader buys some of Liggett's Lico- rice Drops and calls on the young girl. He places the licorice drops on the table. The next morning the girlis husband-she's married of course-grabs a fistful of licorice drops and immediately rises up in righteous indigestion-I mean in- dignation. Seizing a pistol, he rushes down tothe theatre and gal- lops down the aisle, right in the middle of Eddie's act. He aims at the orchestra-leader and fires. His aim is bad and the ,bullet passes through Eddie's shoulder and tears a hole in the curtain. And the man- ager makes Eddie pay for the cur- tain saying that it was through Eddie that the damage was done. JUDGE NNUDCIEVUHISSSD 'IHSRGM 'T-KE XlWI3.UCXXRfi'07D'1IVmQ1ms1mB X-XE .

North played the six of dia- monds and retired the Sox for that inning. 1 At the crucial moment N-orth Jumped two of West's kings and scored Ioe Pratt from second. One and one, the last chukker. It is still anybody's game! Babe Ruth of the North West Mounted is up. The crowd is breathless. He leads a club and Vosmik of the Ais goes to third. The pitcher winds up and lands a terrific- b16w on the throat. Ruth is down! One, two, three- Lead your acef, the manager is shouting-but it is too late, it's too late. LIPTON LOSES AGAIN. i... Campus Twitteringis SCIENTIFIC research has not found as yet, a better substitute for rat- tling windows than college publi- cations. Remember Beavenl The Senior class has decreased by 34.6522 since enrollment, Septem- ber, l927. Yeal 1 The wise ones go hrstl Peaple we don't like are those who: Leave cigarettes upstairs in their room. Canlt let you take five dollars, be- cause they have a house date and only have ten dollars on hand. Take a walk sunny Sunday after- noons on Main Street. Call the refectory a Cafeteria, a Tavern, a Quick Lund! Sl0PPY Ioe's. 13 , . ? Then there is the Senior who in- tends to come back next fall to do ahlittle demerit time -in Study Hall, which he couldn't clear up before Iune. . It is a puzzle to find out where the old baseball tickets, heretofore, used for calling the boys IN for alibis in alleged absences from sun- dry activities, have disappeared. If a Senior uses more than five invitations to Commencement, he is not expecting company, not to men- tionthe Senior Ball. - lt took this graduating class four .years tofsee a victory fbut what a victoryj over Boston College, a small college situated forty miles east of Worcester. We smile when we think of what the Freshman has to go through. We laugh when we see the Sopho- mores putting on their high-hats. ' We roar when we see the Iuniors stepping out. K But we break down and cry when we realize what suckers we have been ingetting through. LUIS SANCHEZ,' Poe-ms of Childhood THE Spring, 1918 issue of. the Sears-Roebuck catalogue is at hand-a bit late, it's true, but Des- mukes, our very own letter carrier has just recovered from a severe at- tack of pedemode, or fallen ankles, as it is more widely known, and fear- ful of being mistaken for a police- man, left town until the vice inves- tigation blew over-and thus we end another sentence with a preposition, a favorite failing of ours, but one which nevertheless shows our originality and the fact that we are a man of our convictions for ever since our days in the grades we have maintained that the preposition has as much right to end a sentence as has any other part of speech. And while we are on the subject we might as well say that we canit for the life of us see why so many people get bothered about split infinitives. An infinitive, split' or not split, is still an infinitive and as such it is deserv- ing of respect. Hats off, men! This infernal condemnation of split infin- itives, which for brevity we will call lactucariums, is driving the poor things entirely out of existence. Why, ten years ago they were as common as bank failures are today and I well recall the happy child- hood hours spent in capturing and taming the lactucariums, which could be found out in the swamp back of the railroad station. My col- lection was the best in the neigh- borhood and even rivalled the group of butterflies owned by Willie Prendergast--the old sissy! I par- ticularlyremember how one winter day when I was returning from the county fair-but, ah, I digress. This current issue of the catalogue is just bubbling over with advertise- ments and notices for good things and he is a calloused man indeed, who can present a stony pan to the bargains offered. For instance, just turn to page 438 and note the special sale of Old Grey Heads to Shoot if You Must. At forty-five dollars a dozen these can't be equalled any place. And of course there is a cheaper grade for target practice. And here on page 435, just look at JUDGE the fine variety of Wolves at the Door. No home is complete with- out at least one wolf at the door and that last crack in the stock market has made them popular even on Pratt Street and Park Avenue. Your old home wants one and as man to man, you're not doing right if you deny it this one pleasure. That building sat by you, rocking your cradle when you had the mumps and what did you do? Kicked her in the corridors and forgot about her. And when she timidly ob- jected, you made a lunge for her- a measly affair of canned beans and coffee. Thought you could pay her back with a miserable business- men's lunge, did you? Or here, on page 234, how about buying the homestead one of these special com- binations: Old Uaken Buckets, Iron Bound Buckets, Moss Covered Buckets to hang in the Well. The three in one cost but 53.50. Household necessities may be found further back. Stitches in Time to Save Nine at only forty- two cents a gross. These also come in colors for embroidering table run- ners, which just about solve that old problem of what to give grandma for Christmas. Faces for the Bar- room Floorf' are a special bargain at nine pence each. With a ready stock of these any dub can easily be- come the life of the party. They come in all shapes and complexions and twelve of them placed on top of each other make an excellent foot- rest or doorstop. For the young father may we sug- gest the strong, seasoned rods to spare to spoil your child with. fPage 14-55.13 eachj. And for the child there is a wonderful variety of sticks and stones to break your bones with,H as well as names for never hurting with. In this depart- ment may also be found at bargain prices stones to throw at people who live in glass houses, as well as roll- ing stones with which to gather no moss. I Do you garden? Charming busi- ness, gardening. What ' greater pleasure is there for that tired suburbanite feeling than to corn- 14- mune with nature, via of the dainty speckled green peas, or mignonettes to parsley the garnish with. And the amazing line of little acorns for growing great oaks. Upon my word, Faustine, there breathes no man with soul so dead who would not pine for such virtual oaks. And for gauging your spoils of the hoed rows, there are some lovely ena- melled scales for doing things in a big weigh tfsee page 987MD. Let me say a few words anent the style of this epoch-making book, it is quick, terse, brilliant, to-the- point, sprinkled well with pictures and served cold. Words, the ma- gician's art of superlatives fail before a proper description of this heart- throbbing tale. Never within an American epic have so many items of interest been before embodied. There is but one thing wrong with this novel-in-halftones, the covers are too far apart. V Funja la Carte fContinued from Page Sj might attempt some of the other sec- tions of the book-one never knows when one is going to run across an ironist, satirist, or cynic, in a crowd. We have faith in our year-book. Others may pass away, but ours is a monument to the ingenuity of mem- bers of this class who devoted time ,and talents which they might other- wise have turned to monetary ad- vantage in any of the larger humor- ous magazines in the country. They came through for us, stick along with them.

JU DGE IUDGING THE BOGKS THERE are books and books, Some are good, some are bad. Some contain living descriptions of nature in all its I-inery Some aint . ' P the beautiful characters we love to k , now, and cannot forget. Some tell us weird tales of adventures in strange lands, of strange people, who do strange things. Every man to his own taste, of course,-but, let me recommend for your private library the most startling book that has ever been written by the hand of man. It is titled Backgrounds of Biologyf, If you think Palgrave's Colden Treasuryn was exciting you ought to read this! It is the story of a Plasmodium Vivax, who, upon his return to New York from the World War gets into a racket. He begins cutting off the legs of Sala- manders with the aid of a couple of Carbohydrates who worked in his shop. Finally a Blue Andalusian Fowl began to muscle into his territory. The Fowl,s sister, Os- mosis, falls in love with Katabo- lism, Plasmodium's right hand man. It is then that the war begins! The Fowl gets crossed up with a Hybrid from Chicago and the last chapter ends up with Osmosis, Katabolism and the Fowl chasing Plasmodium down the Mohawk Trail, along Cambridge Street for Hfty yards, and on down past Duke University at the foot of the hill on Pratt Street. It is not only entertaining but educational. The best character is Katabolism. The best incident is at the point where Plasmodium gets his foot caught in a frog, named Ed- gar, and is Hnally saved in a nick of time by Binary Fission, the detec- tive from Scotland Yard.
