LOYOLA and cleverness in the one phrase: a keen student. In all his actions he is typical. Not big of stature, with an ignoble love of sleep, magazines, hand- kerchiefs and bridge, he nevertheless achieves results in an amazing manner. We suspect the solution is a highly developed power of concentration. Things financial and political, econo- mic and scientific, seem to command the greatest interest from Marcel, and we say again his cleverness brings satis- factory results in all branches. But we cannot omit another aspect of this unique personality, and that is an abundant and ever present fund of fun and good-humour which probably aids him to no mean extent in all his many endeavours. Activities: Sodality, Councillor, '27-'29, Master of Canadidates, '29-'30, Treasurer, '30-'31; St. John Berchmans, Consultor, '27-3:; Mock Parliament, Leader of thc Opposition, '31; Review, business manager, '29; News, editor, '29; The Tower, editor, '29-'30; K.ILZ., consultor, '29, Sec'y, '31; Football, Financial Manager, '29. GEORGE, Emmett If music be the food of love, play on— Give me excess of it. Shakespeare. Emmett, in his long sojourn of eight years among us, has shown his loyalty COLLEGE REVIEW — and good fellowship on all occasions. His musical nature excels itself on the ders or the violin, and he can always € counted upon to pass away many a dull hour. Particularly may we make mention of his ability on the football field; courageous, fast and clever, he can easily be rated as one of the greatest outside wings ever developed at Loy- ola. But then this cannot be termed unusual for Emmett, since he seems to be able to make a success of anything to which he applies himself. With his departure, Loyola loses one who has been always willing to lend a hand in any of her undertakings, and one indeed who has played no small part in her successes. Activities: Track, '23-25; College Football, '28-29; High School Football, '26-27; College Orchestra, '23-'31; С.О.Т.С., '28-'31; Mock Parliament; Sergeant-at-Arms.

LOYOLA GOLLEGE REVIEW бе OC rr ee make a thorough judgment on any man. But with Jacques it has always been the same; a steady, cheerful and sincere friend, endowed with a readiness to please and a gallant spirit of affable generosity. Since he has been with us, he has displayed his gifts in many ways, even if we were only to make mention of the melody of his voice, or perhaps to be more appropriate—of his sane and level-headed views on current topics. Hailing from Quebec, Jacques pos- sesses the culture and courteous manner of a true French-Canadian. Never given to extremes nor failing ever in his earn- est and genial way, we look upon him as сатар company and thoroughly reliable in every way. Loyola loses a good student when he graduates, and we shall miss the good cheer of our associations with him; for we have known Jacques, not long, but well. Activities: Sodality, Consultor, '31; C.O.T.C., Asst. Quarter Master; Glee Club, Librarian, '31; Mock Parliament, Minister of Justice, '31; Orchestra, '30-'31; Tennis, '30- 31. Ganzav, Oliver “То scorn philosophy, is truly to philosophize.”’ Pascal. A more pleasant companion one could not find, than our revered old patri- arch, chemist and pioneer, Oliver. Af- fable, unruffled, and not inclined to worry or be disturbed, he delights in sitting back to pass judgment on all the superficialities, frivolities and harass- ing conventions of life, and devotes himself particularly to those things which produce immediate and practical results. Oliver indeed has developed his own individual and interesting philosophy along with a very precise and fixed aim in life, placing his faith entirely in steady and moderate achieve- ment. Things unnecessary, lengthy and explanatory are taboo with Oliver, unless they directly bear upon the sub- ject. That’s our good old friend, O. Gareau. Activities: Class Sec.-Treas., '29-'30; Sodality Councillor, '30-'31; Debating Society Coun- cillor, '3o-31; Forum Debating Society, Sec'y, '28; Football, College Intermediate, '28, Junior, '26-'27; Track, '23-'27.

LOY OLA been found lacking. Particularly willing by nature, Breezy is ready to perform the task, however small, that may be allotted to him. Ellsworth has developed himself along the lines of an earnest student while at Loyola, and has accomplished much by his spirit of exactness and thorough- ness. Indeed it may be truthfully said that of all among us, no one can claim to have worked harder in studies, hence it is that we earnestly hope that his painstaking efforts will be suitably rewarded in his chosen profession. While his athletic achievements have not been wide, they are indeed typical. Class hockey and football, but in par- ticular tennis, where he is nori, as one of the top-notchers at Loyola, have always claimed him a keen enthusiast. Activities: C.O.T.C., '26-31, Corporal, '31. Forum Debating Society, '27-'29; College Debating Society, '29-'31; Intra-Mural Hoc- key , '27-'31; Class Football, '27-'29; Tennis, '28-'29. COLLEGE REVIEW 4— could better describe Reg on political matters than the poet: °‘ Fearfully wise be shakes bis noble bead, And deals out empires as he deals out thread. But with it all, Free Trade or Protec- tion, Whigs or Tories, no one could find a better friend than Reg. True, loyal, helpful and good-natured, he stands as the embodiment of all that could be desired or hoped for in a friend. Essentially constructive in nature, Reg's cleverness will make any topic interesting and enlightening. But we cannot m in these few words, upon his talents, for we, as all others who know him, value Reg first and always as a reliable friend and we look upon his graduation as the loss of a sterling character in every sense of the word. Activities: R.S. Sodality, Councillor, '29-'30; Forum Debates, '28-'30; Mock Parliament, Mins. of Labor, '31; C.O.T.C., Quarter- master, 28-31; K.ILZ., Councillor, '29-'31; The Tower, '28-'29; Inter-Class Debates, '29; Baseball, '27-'29; Basketball, '27- 29.
