The idea of this book is to contrast and com- pare the graduating seniors of 1960 with the seniors who graduated from the Academy in 1911. It has been stated already that there is a vast difference between these two groups of Loyola men, no one will deny that. A very wise man once remarked that a mind streched by a new idea can never return to its original proportions. Here is where the greatest differ- ence lies. What does it matter that one senior drove to Dumback Hall in a Model 'T' instead of a Chevrolet Impala or wore knickers instead of the newest lvy League fashions? The senior of today has been thrown into a world where Catholicism is coming into its own and where men are forever seeking truth in the midst of turmoil. The graduates of the class of '11 knew nothing of world wars, depressions, atomic bombs, or Communism. Due to a lack of com- munication and transportation, his view was compact and limited. To the senior of fifty years ago, the moon was an inaccessable satellite and nothing more. But many men in. our class will use this same moon as a target for missiles and as a springboard for even greater feats in God's universe. However, the first graduates knew an America we shall never recap- ture. They know a Loyola Academy of early beginnings, of small classes, and growing pains in a new building. We, too, in the class of 1960 know something of a new building and have certainly seen the results of grow- ing pains. And we are also the last who can remember, months ago, trudging to a campus on the lake. . . Thus, by retracing time back to the year of 1911, we can see that Loyola Academy is the common bond between our class and the first class of 1911, This is what we share: a building, an ideal. 15 'Q 2 i, 1 Q, - 3'
