I HE BEGINNING of the Sophomore year saw a considerable addition to the class in the person of the bulky Jim. Jimmie was a transfer from Fordham where he had dis- tinguished himself as regular back on the Freshman team. It was not long before he had established himself among his new schoolmates as a good student and a regular fellow. I-:- His rugged figure was soon outstanding in intramural -.E games-baseball, basketball, touch football. Less vigorous - diversions-poker, bridge, etc.-likewise attracted him. No college dance was a success without him. In short, A Jimmie is a friendly, eager sort-always ready to join 5 the gang in any activity. He's robust, curious, care-freeg - interested in everything, but not too much in study, yet he maintains his health, scholastic standing and other in- -.T - terests all at once. -'1-:I-l -:T 1' .l,....- - L-Tl: ,L-,...,i-1 , i We are proud of him as an athlete and oratorg fond 5 -ll of him as a raconteur and a jokerg afraid of him as an - - amateur strong-mang and all for him to barge through 5 '5 in his own bulky fashion. ? 5 , 5 ?1i - 5 .qi -ef I t 5, , i ,gf , -' 'L ras?

Alas, there are too few Yet none of those fortunates who wended vacatxonward to Brattleboro can ever forget the equa- tonal calm of high noon when the thermometer soared torridlv to ten below And they faintly understood why I B was the student, the lover of books.

Socially ithletxcallx and scholastically Bill can take his place amongst the leaders of our tlass Ben is noted as a great lover of nature and our feathered friends hold a great place in his heart He is a pursuer and great admirer of a strange bird that plavs the organ so beautifully in a quaint little church bv the sea. When questioned of his 1,..,,.1 loves, he is never evasive, but on the contrary quite gar- rulous and Winning Do not gather from this that Bill is essentially a ladles many far from it, his male admirers far outnumber the opposite sex. Bill is, first and foremost, a man s man, for ws hen the call for intramural sports went out, Bill took his place, and a high one at that, in foot- ball basketball and baseball. He has been the sparkplug and shining light on many teams during his schooldays. Bill is one of the lads we shall miss greatly when the class moves out from Loyola. i I4 :ni flfl fl W FY -1,43 ' -f -1-1 it - li-I - - ll l Xllll l ., . . 9 u J 1 1 y J ' . . , I ' I J y 1 1 ' ' . . . . 9 1 J ' I ' . c . ec c .Yi Z 1 .Vi K 1 J 1 c L..
