LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 8 REVIEW top among the best students of the class, and, when Dick settles down to the slow steady grind of a mining engineer’s life, we can expect paramount success. Activities: Football (37-38-39-Captain '40); golfing when it's sunny, playing bridge or plungy' poker when it rains, Dramatics (37-38); inspiring the HS to greater deeds and being President of the Scientific Society (40) or patronizing the downtown movie houses. Вс Moment: The day the ‘‘fan-mail’’ poured іп. FRANCIS POWER This chap’s mind is forever busy with plans and theories; he is an exponent of the almost lost art of conversation and a good listener too. Frankie is intelligent and keen enough to recognize the wheat from the chaff as we know from his refreshing opinions and different views on many prob- lems. He defends the widow and the orphan with the weapons of Sociology and Economy and generally succeeds in putting across what he has in mind. Frank boarded at Loyola for many years and during that time he became a 2 Lieut. in the OTC where he showed rare form in forging ahead. As a final example Frankie did a ‘Power’-ful good job on the pictures of the graduates used in this year’s ‘Review’. His class-mates have no doubts of his success from what they have seen of his prowess at school. Асттутттеѕ: Showing a general distaste for Physics lab as against pure logic; tennis of the serious type; Sanctuary Society (37-38); Debating (39, IUDL 40), OTC work. Вю Moment: When be undermined an argument in ‘prep’. GEORGE ROBITAILLE George has a reputation for being the most obliging fellow in the College. Once George gets going, it isn’t hard for him to go anywhere because he lets nothing stand in the way of dawg what is right. A fellow who never cries over spilt milk, he is an inspiration to those who see enthusiasm, sportsmanship, eagerness and spirit in sport and work. His heart of gold will be sufficient collateral to meet the demands of the law profession to which he aspires. Асттутттез: Football (39-40); Hockey; Tennis; being tbe 'social lion’’ of Cartierville and looking culpable wben a test-tube breaks in lab. Bic Moment: When be got his driver s license. WILLIAM ROWE After Sophomore year Billy was forced to secede from Loyola for a year because of illness and it was only in Junior year that the class of 40 really came to appreciate this shy but cheerful per- sonage. On the football field Billy became one of the fastest es ever to don the Maroon and White, and his speed coupled with his amazing gameness made him a valued member of the 39 and '40 teams. Billy is a good neighbour, a pleasant person to deal with and опе who always has time for his friends; if everyone were as jolly and a -go-lucky as he were, the word 'depres- sion’ would be obsolete. ВШ will walk the level su of decency, honesty and peaccfulness as long as he lives. Асттуттікѕ: Football (39-40), Baseball, Track, Patronizing St. Willibrord’s parochial activities and shooing off old man gloom. Bic Moment: When he came back to Loyola іп 39. PIERRE SENECAL An eight year man is Pierre (christened ‘Pete’ after one week at Loyola) whose Loyola education can be traced through an octet of ‘Reviews’. When Pete started to look for ‘unknowns’ in his lab work, the ‘unknowns’ gave up before his indomitable perseverance. In all his eight years Pierre has made not an error and has a reputation for keeping appointments on the dot . . . Of hockey, football and debates Pierre was always an ardent supporter. When the Medical Profes- sion receives Pierre Sénécal, Loyola loses a most earnest student. Activities: Stage work, Vice-Pres. Scientific Society, Sodality poster-artist, exponent of tennis-for-tall- men, and cycling de-luxe. Bic Moment: When he astounded the class in English literary knowledge.

LOYOLA Page 7 COLLEGE REVIEW STANLEY KNOX Disliking the sticky syrup of sentimentality and keeping his own emotions well in hand, Stan Knox has climbed to the top of the class in scholastic attainments in his two years at the college. A boarder since early years in Brébeuf College, Stan has walked the ‘flat’ for the last two years se- cretly instilling a partiality for Holyoke, Mass., in the hearts of the other boys. Possessed of an amaz- ing versatility, he will ever be remembered for his parts in Қ ады ar and ‘A Tale of Two Cities’, and, when he becomes a Doctor as he plans, he'll surely be one who ‘‘knows his stuff , Activities: Football (39-40); NEWS Staff (40); Dramatics (39-40); Debating (IUDL 39); sneering at sophisms and knocking the air out of tennis balls. Bic Moment: When someone said: “ОВ yes, I know Holyoke—great town ! 1 CLARENCE MAGUIRE Clarry always wanted to be up and doing, going places and seeing things. Curious and restless he has a natural capacity for success . . . and has attained that success at college, in football, hockey and studies. His outstanding characteristics is his conscientious devotion to the task of the moment, never leaving it till it is successfully completed. Active and high-strung though Clarry is, still he has developed self-mastery to a final degree and knows the value of things to a fine point. A worthy addition to the Alumni is Clarence Maguire. Асттуттівв: Hockey (37-38-39-40); Football (37-38-39-40); Baseball, Swimming, Tennis, and roaming the environs of Outremont. Bic Moment: The day be learned to roll a cigarette. DONALD NEWTON Donny has had all the frills that could decorate his report cards since First High at Loyola; one of the ‘strong silent’ type is Don with an extraordinary hant for the languages . . . nor can we overlook his part in the winning of three hockey championships in his four college years. Quiet, unobtrusive, but oh-so-efficient is Donny that, although he disclaims any connection with having discovered the law of gravity, there are many who predict his discovery of something equally important when he continues on out in the world. Activities: Praising Ville St. Pierre; Hockey (37-38-39-40); baseball and solving all the most difficult Physics problems mentally. Bic Moment: When he found S=VT experimentally. PAUL OUIMET We all remember our first day in school when we felt so alone and knew no one; how it took us about a week to get into the swing of things. But it did not take Paul 20 minutes to make friends of all the boys in Senior class when he came here in Sept. '39 for the first time. His sportsman- ship on the football field was the wedge that brought Paul into the very centre of the class circle. Generous, tempestuous, magnanimous and determined, Paul is a nature, electric and volatile. He proved his abilities by winning the College Doubles Tennis Tournament in short order despite a terrific handicap at the outset. In one short year Paul has imbibed the true Loyola spirit and he will carry it for the rest of his life. Астіуттінв: Driving that famous buggy known as ‘ouimetscar’, golfing, tennis of championship degree, football, and waiting in for his next class to come around. Bic Moment: When the boys clapped him deaf on winning the Tennis cup. RICHARD PARE The BIG man who WAS THERE” is Dickie, as his opponents on the gridiron will testify. Advice to the novice, concern for his fellow players, respect for his opposition finally but inevi- tably led to Dick's election to the captaincy of this year's winning XII. The criterion of all who want to ее the world ', Paré’s questing quality has made him a person of charm who leaves а vivid impression on all whom he contacts. Intense spurts of work have carried Dick well to the
