c IN A SHORT TIME HE ACCOMPLISHED MUCH DAVID THOMAS DUNIGAN An unfortunate accident. early in October. terminated with stun- ning suddenness the earthly career of one of Gonzaga's outstanding under-graduates. In the year and a quarter he spent at Gonzaga. Tom Dunigan won a lasting place in the hearts and memories of all with whom he came in contact. He was one of those rare personalities often described but only occasionally met: for he possessed all the qualities of a true Catholic gentleman. an eager scholar and a loyal friend. We are all richer for our association with Tom and the many un- intended lessons he taught us in his unobtrusive, wholesome way: not only by his actions about the school and on the playing field. but especially by his heroic, almost miraculous conduct for twelve long. lingering days after his fatal accident. We are proud to have known you, Tom. and we feel sure, judging from the constant interest and complete cooperation you always dis- played when among us. that we still have a loyal friend and an anxious intercessor in Heaven. equizsnat Zin 39am

Schlegel ITreasurerI. Being the first Iunior Class to appear in these pages, we may well voice the autobio- graphical sentiments of all our year. The three years of survival at Gonzaga, while rendering us too old to be Sophs, nevertheless give us the conviction that We are grown up, really Upper-bracket , at home, and rubbing occa- sional elbows with the Seniors. Perhaps that is one reason why our quietly studious class found education, this year, a far more mature personal realization of what we were to learn. For this, we must seriously thank our class teacher, Mr. Algier, S.I., to whom Latin, our unique Greek, and French were not separated subjects, but various aspects of the one truth, Fr. Kavanagh, S.I., who made our Religion in- teresting and Challenging, Mr, Pichla, S.I., who ' - ' ilk, all 3 ,715 in - 1 .-,. 2- 3, .G , . ,1,isg 5f . fi ' sir' gigs' nr: -if li' Qt' Q 532 293 . 523' - if ' H, 1, fir-in msgs-y X' :fwfr 'tx f- Latin can he interesting! built on the German foundations he laid last year, Mr. lvfessemer, S.I., with enough patience for logarithms, and Mr. Boyd, who guided us in adventures in American Literature. To recall the honor men would be to comb the class list, though Edwards, Burns, Schlegel and McCabe were outstanding. Kerekes, San- tucci, Edwards and Starrs were with Mr. Al- gier's Players and Revelersg on the Aquilian were Burns, Edwards, Starrs and Garvey, and Meaney, Mickum, Foeckler, Frawley were es- sential to the band, while Donohue and Clark wore the purple football jersey, and Garvey, Burke, and Kennedy, the basketball togs. We were always well represented at K.B.S. and sodality functions, whence most of our motiva- tion was drawn. 3A Sth Row: I. Lertora, I. McCabe. P. Santucci. 4th Row: I. McGrath, E. Burns, P.
