LOYOLA Page 3 COLLEGE REVIEW The Red Cross Nurse She moves like mist at dawning Silent, and swift, and white; Her touch the peaceful blessing That comes before the light. And when the light is waning Ere darkness comes again, The mist returns addressing А sweetly-thought Amen. Her hands are like a mother's Guiding the way you roam; Her voice is soft and yearning Like a sweetheart back home. Her shoulder like a brother's Your burden willing bears; How few, so undiscerning, Accept anothert's cares? Some angel kind descending Brought low to fill our need; The ultimate in kindness, Hypocrates’ own seed. The flame that burns unending Through havoc's gory curse, The light to pierce our blindness— God bless the Red Cross Nurse. Pre. L. Martyn, 29, 6th Fld. Amb., R.C.A.M.C. y y т The Eyes of Youth and the Eyes of Age The eyes of Youth and the eyes of Age Walked through the fields one day; Round about the snow beat down; Said Age, upon his face a frown, “This snow: it's wet, it's cold, it stings’’; Said Youth, “ Ті scales from angels’ wings . The eyes of Youth and the сусз of Age Walked through the woods one morn; The sunlight sparkled on the dew; Said Age, to whom no thing was new, We look as though we walked through pools''; Said Youth, “Тһе elves forgot their jewels’’. The еуез of Youth and the eyes of Age Walked about one night; Like diamonds, сена еј stars o'erhead; Said Age, his soul for beauty dead, “АП these stars, what do they до?” Said Youth, '' Tis heaven peeping through .

LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 2 REVIEW One ray of hope, however, gleams through the surrounding gloom, from the vety events we cannot now properly commemorate. From the humblest beginnings the Review has grown and prospered. Despite frail health and in the midst of world circumstances of unparalleled complexity, Very Reverend Father Ledóchowski has brought the Society of Jesus through his twenty-five years of Generalship, not only safe, but, gere the destruction of whole Provinces and the loss of hundreds of her children in bloody massacre and glorious martyrdom, to a record of growth and accomplishment unequalled in her annals. The Society of Jesus in her four hundred years has weathered storms from within and from without which at one time had obliterated her whole structure save one lone fragment in the heretical Russia of Catherine the Great, and yet, she stands to-day, 25,685 strong, in every part of the world, a living proof that the powers of evil are powerless in the long run against the transcendent sweep of truth and virtue. May we not draw from these thoughts strength and hope and the staunch, unflinching faith that, come what may, truth and justice, under the guiding hand of God, will prevail?

LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 4 REVIEW | Ose Den (ors ROYDEN THOMS Brother of an illustrious Alumnus, Roy has shown himself no less a shining example of rectitude than his predecessor. With his word as good as his bond and his ability to organize and direct any task to be done, Roy has assumed the lead in more activities than any other chap in the class. Sodality has been Roy's arrowhead іп all activities, and his office of Prefect is considered by 80% to be the most coveted electorate in all college life. Dramatics, the Library, Debates, and the organization of the original Nemo Dat Club”’ activities have been Roy's work from the start of Freshman. Persevering, conscientious, untiring, trusted, and respected, Royden will never fail in whatever course he takes. Activities: Debating (IUDL 39-40); Prefect of College Sodality-40; Football (38-39-40); Review Staff-40; NEWS Staff; LCAA (37-38-39); Library (38-39); and giving a benign smile to all mankind. Bic Moment: When he recovered a fumble and paved the way to a touchdown. ANGUS MACDOUGALL The class’ most outstanding eight-year man is Angus. A Scholarship in studies and Captaincy in the C.O.T.C. place him above the rest of the boys. From the first days of his impersonation of ‘Battlin’ O'Toole” to his present day imitation of the “Апре!”, Gus has pantomimed his way to the funny-bones of everyone in the school. Moody at time, still life is interesting and colorful to Angus who manages to lift himself by his own bootstraps. The football team will miss Gus’ forward-pass snaring, the Sodality will miss his exemplary conduct, the LCAA will miss his zealous support and the dramatic society will miss his grand performances—but most of all the class will miss his sincere and decided views on all subjects. Activities: Originating the ‘Street Scene’ in Philosophers’ Concert; Review Staff; Football (38-39-40); Baseball, Tennis of the 647” type; Liter ary and Debating Society; LCAA Vice-President іп 40, and First Assistant of Sodality 40. Not to mention Musketry Officer of the OTC where the kids use bis brass buttons for mirrors. Bia Moment: When be met the game of consequences . NORMAN DANN Loyola College has been richer these last four years for the presence of a ош man from Outre- mont... Norman Dann. His fine sense of humour permeated every field of activity and made ‘college life’ for all of us a real joy. His fooling in many instances camouflaged his finer qualities, but the work and the memories he leaves behind at Loyola testify to the serious side or hit char- acter. The many improvements on our stage and in our library are monuments to his unselfish industry. His organizing power in the LCAA made that association prosper and his ability as a playwright, actor and debater are the facts for the records of memory. The ‘Nemo Dat Club’ (wherein his initials ND were surreptitiously inserted) owes its origin to his fertile brain (and I do mean ‘fertile’) so that we consider him the strongest link in our chain of friendship. Activities: LCAA Executive (40); Sodality Executive (40); Library (37-38-39); Dramatics (37-38-39-40); Debating (IUDL 39-40); ‘NEWS’ Staff and trying to imitate Thoms’ benign smile. Bic Moment: When ‘Nemo Dat College’ went to town in the Philosophers’ concert.
