Ethics and Psychology-but let us not draw distinctions. A ready mixer, a repartee as ready and sharp, a deep vein of wit, and a good dis- penser of oil,' Ujawnn should hold forth as com- pletely successful in life, as he has on the campus. WILLIAM JOSEPH RICCIARDI XVASHINGTON, D. C. Bill Business Manager Journal C15 C25 C31 Philodemic Society C45 O'Brien Medal CSD Honor Man CD C25 C31 VVillie is a close student-not of any particular subject, but he lives only two blocks away from college, the old saying, the nearer the church the farther from Godf' has no parallel in his case, for the astounding regularity with which he attends class got him his job of checking up on the less alert members. He is a grind, indeed, but not in char- acteristics. He can study more than any other two, but he never loses his pep and goodfellowship. And he does what he undertakes in speedy and thorough fashion, which augurs well for his deeds after he leaves Georgetown. SYLVESTER ROLL ELLswoRTif, MINNESKDTAX Spex'l Philodemic C45 Although only a one-year man in our midst Syl- vester has evidenced himself very much. From in- quiry we learned that his ability as an athlete, scholar and debater, while at St. Marys, his former Alma Mater placed him very far in the front of his class. His entrance among us, while not so marked, has showed progression, and judging from the toll of his social campaigns, he bids fair to lead even us to such glories.

CHARLES CYRIL O'DAY XVASHINGTON, D. C. slCy Asso. liditor Georgetown Journal 115125135 w'HSllll1Kt0ll Club Cy claims historic Georgetown as his birthplace and although he- does not shogut this proudly to the four winds, nevertheless he will willingly disclose this fact under cross-examination. Diligence and perseverance could be a Fitting characterization of this youth, for by practicing these virtues he has carried off more than his share of honors. He is one of those rare men whose quietness is apt to lead one to pass over his virtues, but like every true gentle- man and scholar his worth is true gold. SYLVESTER MANUEL O'GORMAN SOUTH Nl.-XNCIIESTER, CONN. -. 1 is Syl lix-Holy cross cn 'M mee ciuit an up C45 XVith the tinge of the morning sun showing in his curly locks and with a brave, if somewhat boastful demeanor, Sil entered Georgetown three years ago from l-loly Cross. He wished to get away from the baneful effects of New England and to acquire eul- ture in a city of greater prominence. Sil has calmly and quietly gone through his three years, absorbing knowledge in every way, scholastically and socially, and it is now that we sec the fruits of his efforts. He has labored, but not in vain. THOMAS THOMPSON PETZOLD DETROIT, MICH. 'tVVill Entered University .of Detroit C35 Vice-President Philodemic Debating Society Every day and in every way--. Why start a summary of a man's career by copying the expres- sion of a famous doctor? ls it apropos, is it sym- bolical or does it typify the man? All these we leave to your discretion and offer our ideas. One day last year, in the midst of a violent logic class, when judgments, terms and ideas were having the most detracting things expounded about them, the door flew open and. to our amazement, stood a blceting youth from the shores of Lake Michigan. Silence covered the class. Pctzold's my name, I'm from Detroit U. -lust dropped in to finish my course with you lads, and get a few honors. The wiser element of the class prevailed and our hero dived, until today he ranks amongst the foremost members of the class. Shall we hnish? -he's getting better and better. ,u

JOHN ANTHONY ROMWEBER BATESVILLE, INDIANA Rommy Class Baseball Q23 Gaston Debating Society C23 Smoker Committee C33 Senior Prom Lommittee C43 The Flying Dutchman is one of the high spots of the class. Always hailed with delight, the essence of good humor, he has sailed gloriously through four years with his wide grin. Periodically he sub- merges for a period of brain racking study, only to pop forth once more Hrearing to go. And he loves his reading. VVhen not out, or planning to go out, and when not fighting with Scally, he can always be found with his nose in a book. And what goes in can come out, as those find who argue with him. LEO G. ROSZYKIEWICZ l'iERKEMER, N. Y. t'Rizk', Rosey Philonomosian C23 C33 C43 Junior Smoker C33 Domesday Booke Staff Pages will be written about the great sacrifices some of the country's youth made to defend her in her most dire need. Leo was one of those who gave up a well-famed law course to answer the call, and as a consequent has been forced to accept a delay of two years before his entrance upon the business world. lt can never be said that his activities ceased when his duty to country was finished for he has always been very energetic in class affairs. Deducing his accomplishments and adding to that the man as we understand him, we can be assured of good representation. JAMES FLEMING RUTLEDGE STA MFORD, CON N. Rut Football, llaseball CClass3, C13 Baseball CClass3 C23 Chairman Junior Prom C33 The senior member of the vvell-known firm of Rutledge Sz Romweber, the Brothers, representatives at Georgetown.. Among other things, .lim had a dance, which is to say, he was chairman of the Junior Prom Committee. and one glorious success he made of it: the best -lunior Prom ever held is a mild description. He took his executive powers else- where in Senior year, and by hard work made a real body out of his society. And in these leagues which are held at random on any old night, we must hand Rut one concession. He never bragged about Con- necticut. This is, indeed, praise Cto be sure, there's nothing to brag about, but that shouldn't detract.l Twenty-three will be long in forgetting Rut's smile, and longer yet in forgetting hllll.
