While eating, the soft strains of Cavatina, from the orchestra attracted my attention. It was a mfg violin solo. Who is the artist? l asked.

Jesuit High School clashed with its old rival in an educational contest, Q96 on Tuesday, March 8th, l927. The debate, which was the preliminary for the city championship, was held under the auspices of the Glendy Burke S Literary and Debating Society. Jesuit High School met Warren Easton in Warren E.aston's own auditorium and there debated the question: Resolved H15 that all debts owed the United States Government by their allies of the late My war should be cancelled. Carl Buchmann and Jack Schwab, holding the negative side for Jesuit High School, stood up against their opponents of 1-2 ' .eb in Warren Easton, Stanford L. Hyman and Gustave P. Devron. The debate 9551? 9139 was well argued, and the decision was won by the Jesuit High School. mile Judges were selected for the finals of the city championship debate and ,Iii Jesuit High School and lsidore Newman Manual Training met in open forum at the Sophie Wright Auditorium. The question debated was Resolved that We the Eighteenth Amendment should be repealed. The affirmative was upheld by Jesuits and the negative by Brown Moore and Walter Lurie of Manual Training School. Carl Buchmann and Jack Schwab defeated the lsidore New- We man Training School team. As the judges gave in their decisions there could be-as be heard even a pin drop, so intense was the excitement of the audience, and N56 so well-contested had the debate been. The judges, Mr. Charles Dunbar, Mr. H. P. Dart, and Mr. Rene Viosca, gave the votes, two to one, in favor of ea- - . 1 -4-at Je u t . .ro 46.6 s is D .

Here are three more of our boys: just think, five lawyers out of our class, said Azar, Isn't that a record? Who is the fifth? I asked. But Doctor Azar pretended not to hear and walked into my father's office. 'iwhom did I see there? Gus Cast, who had taken up criminal law and had rented a desk-room in one of my father's offices. We were giving each other a hearty handshake for old time's sake, when in walked Bernard McNamara and Archinard Cahill, whom I recollected as two of my old schoolmates, now the city's best architects. They had an important law suit on their hands, and when they heard l was a junior partner of the Buch- mann Br Buchmann law firm, they gave me the case. Thus it is that ten years after graduation, the boys of Fourth A, l92 7, have found their vocations in life and each in his own sphere is reflecting credit on his Alma Mater-Jesuit High School.
