Lionel Arl' Club HIS CLUB, which adopted the lion for its emblem, had its origin in the great paper drive of November, 1931, when a group of enthusiastic stu- dents spent hours of their spare time in making posters and signs. Officers of the Club are: Robert Wimmer, president: Joseph Sabo, vice-president: Thomas McKenzie, secretary, and Anthony Allen, treasurer. Meetings are held every Tuesday. They are practical art courses, during which the fundamental principles of art in its various phases and techniques are explained. After which the students apply their knowledge in reproducing models and in making compositions. The materials are purchased with the con- tributions given by the members. Charcoal work received a great deal of attention. Poster and dec- orative work, because of practical value, also occu- pied their time: crayonnex, water and oil painting, tempera, and pastel work were prominent and sup- plemented the knowledge of its members. Members of the Club have greatly increased J their knowledge and skill as a result of their activ- ity. Under the direction of Brother Nicholas, this Club promises to be an active organization of the school. It has been enjoyed by all members, and we hope the work will be carried on in future years. f Page One Hundred Twentyfthree

Cafholic Acfion CommiH'ee HE CATHOLIC Action Committee was founded through the efforts of Brother Frank Servaites. The Club owes its origin to the appeal that His Holiness, Pope Pius the Xlth, has so frequently made during the past few years, for the spread of Catholic Action among its young members. Hugh lVlcShane was elected chairman of the committee. It has as its members representatives from all the classes. The Catholic Action Committee is one of the most active organizations in the school. Among its activities are: the Propagation of the Faith, the Mis- sions, Mite-boxes, Catholic literature, press selections and publications. Records of Communions at the novena devotions and of First Fridays, as well as of other spiritual activities, are some of the statistics being compiled by this group. l The work was arranged in such a manner that .Q rf!! i everyone had some special work to perform.

I9 CAMPANILE 32 Q L. COOK, Presidenl J. REAUME, Secretary R. MEIERS, Trcasur J. SULLIVAN, Vice-Presidenl I 0 A Umnl With each succeeding year, the Alumni of Holy Redeemer has grown larger, and, as a result, has had better and more successful seasons. As a result of the election of officers in October, 1931, the following were elected to office: Lawrence Cook '24, presidentg John Sullivan '28, vice- presidentg John Reaume '27, secretary: and Reynolds Meier '29, treasurer. Theodore Collins '20, Edward O'Connor '28, and Emmett Roach '31, were elected to the board of governors. 1 Reviewing the Alumni athletic season, we find, in spite of the fact that the Alumni lineup presented many stars of former years, that the first football encounter with the Varsity resulted in a scoreless tie. On Thanksgiving Day another chance was given to battle the Lion on the gridiron. After a hard and determined struggle, the Alumni team scored no better with the Varsity. A The outstanding social event of the season 1 was held April 15, 1932, in the Italian Gardens Ballroom of the Book Cadillac Hotel. John Sulli- van, chairman of the twelfth annual June banquet, offered the largest and best banquet to date. Field Day at Bob-lo saw the annual baseball game be- tween the Alumni and the Seniors, besides numer- ous other sports and field events. A Moonlight on the river brought a fitting close to another pros- perous season. JOHN REAUME, '27. Page One Hundred Twewtyffmw
