LOYOLA + res . As Platoon Commander he had the doubtful privilege of officering Pla- toon No. 4 (2.е., the rest of the class), and carried out his duties to everyone's satisfaction. His outlook on life is a serious one, as befitting a Senior, an officer, and a second tenor in the Church Choir. He is equally at home in dis- cussing a problem in Ethics, or on mili- tary tactics; in explaining the social activities of Lumbricus terrestris or the feats of Hannibal. But let us end this eulogy before our own doings pale into insignificance. His thousand and one qualifications will undoubtedly procure for Ed his place in the sun. АП his qualities conspire to make him one of Loyola's elect. Activities: Prefect of the Sodality; Sec. Scientific Society; Debating Society; Lieut., C.O.T.C. Hawke, John: “The thought of our past years in me doth breed Perpetual benediction.” — WORDSWORTH. A member of the Old Guard of First High, a corporal, and a gentleman; these comprise Johnny’s chief claims to fame. And to these we might add the fact that at Johnny’s advent, the smug air of provincialism that pervaded the class was dispelled—forever. We came into contact with the Big City; we ac- quired a nodding acquaintance with Brooklyn and the Bronx; we passed the time of day with Al Smith and Jimmie Walker and spent hours on Riverside Drive. And all this through the medium of Mr. Hawke. Johnny had travelled far and frequently, and was disposed to impart his experiences to the class. His earnestness and ability make any topic interesting and enlightening. These few words are entirely too in- adequate to depict all Johnny's fine qualities; books have been written on less worthy subjects. But, in its own rather inadequate way, the class ex- COLLEGE REVIEW — tends to Johnny its sincere thanks for a pleasant and instructive acquaintance. Activities: Debating Society; Acting Corporal, C.O.T.C.; Class Hockey. 7 т y KENNEDY, Wilson: “Ни eye begets occasion for his wit: For every object that the one doth catch, The other turns to a mirth-moving jest; —SHAKESPEARE. Of a quiet and amiable disposition, Will has a sense of responsibility which has often manifested itself in class ac- tivities. His graduation completes a quest for academic knowledge that be- gan some eight years ago, when Will first came to us from the hinterlands of Outremont. In him we find combined a veritable host of intellectual quali- ties. Beneath a becoming gravity of countenance he masks a keen wit and sense of humor. Now and again that well of humor that lurks beneath the surface will burst forth in some witti- cism that is all the more humorous be- cause it is infrequent. The first intima- tion tbat we had that Will was a radical was evinced in a spirited debate on military training. Perhaps his frequent visits to the Saturday Night Club have made him cynical concerning the good intentions of mankind. Always a cheer- ful and sincere friend, he has earned the good will of all. Activities: Debating Society; Intra-Mural 4с- bating; Exec. Dramatic Society; C.O.T.C. т Ж Kine, Richard: “I ат monarch of all I survey. —COWPER. A cherubic-faced, auburn-haired youngster casually made our acquain- tance one September morn, giving his home address as Westmount. The bur- dens, sorrows and harassing cares of College life have pressed but lightly on Dick, the irrepressible. To him we are апр

LOYOLA —+ indebted for many а chuckle and many an amusing incident. He was instru- mental in demonstrating the practical effect of sulphuric acid on a suit of clothes, materially assisted by one John Tansey. But there is a serious side to his nature. He has а great deal of talent, cleverness and versatility. Perusal of the list of his activities will clearly indicate his ability. From the lowly position of water-boy he gradually attained to the position of Assistant Manager of Intermediate Football. This is proof indeed that his merit did not go unrecognized and unrewarded. Activities: Sodality, Sacristan, Secretary, asis- tant Prefect; Lieut. of Cadets; Dramatic Society, Property and Assistant Business Manager; Football, Assistant Manager; Hoc- key, Publicity Manager. y 7 7 Levesque, Edward: “Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world Like a Colossus. —SHAKESPEARE. The West lost one of her illustrious sons when “Вигр” came to the Campus. During his short stay with us he has endeared himself to the fraternity of the Phlat by his open door” policy. When “Вагр” disregarded Horace Gree- ley’s advice, the East was the gainer thereby. He is addicted to chemistry, baseball and the army. As home-run king of the campus, when he advances to the plate, the out-fielders have been known to remove themselves as far as Somerled Avenue. With commend- able humility, “Вигр” kindly lent his по to our Annual Inspection. In eeping with his rugged Western char- acter, he has survived everything from gas-attacks to physics exams. Of late a restless spirit seems to have descended upon him, and his feet inevitably turn towards the West—Montreal West. The local Chief of Police is seriously think- ing of offering him and Dubee the job of directing traffic along Westminster Avenue from half-past three to five COLLEGE REVIEW пча o 'clock. Notwithstanding this failing, we regard him as thoroughly reliable and dependable in every way. His fund of good humor will undoubtedly aid him in his future endeavors, as it has aided him in the past. Our only regret is that our acquaintance was not of longer duration. Activities: Debating Society, C.O.T.C. and Class Hockey. 7 y 7 МсТвассе, William: “Бог c'en though vanquished be would argue still. —Согрвмттн. Buster's' ' conversational ability has been manifested on more than one not- able occasion. As a debater, one would journey far to find his equal. His extra- mural discussion with Phelan and Fleury are ample эвэр of this. Goldsmith must have had him in mind when he depicted his village schoolmaster. He has other interests besides, and as a criterion of his executive ability, one has only to glance over the list of ac- tivities below. As one of the stalwarts in Intermediate Football circles, he was an effective stumbling-block in the path of opposing backs; and his graduation leaves a gap which the coach will have difficulty in filling. Ніз favorite pas- times are playing bridge and giving boxing lessons to Phelan, in both of which he excels. ‘‘Buster’s’’ sterling ee and capabilities should un- oubtedly win recognition, and we expect to hear of great things from our New Englander in the very near future. Activities: Intercolleg. Debating; Editor, the Review; Class Hockey; Pres. Debating Society; Class Pres. ; Dramatics; Councillor, L.C.A.A.; Intermediate Football; C.Q.M.S., C.O.T.C. 7 7 7 NEWMAN, John: “Friendly to thought, to virtue and to peace. —COWPER.
