All subscriptions will be gratefully received. 1941 MONTREAL, CANADA No. 27 EDITORIAL Our New Rector Loyola continues to be blessed with excellent Rectors. The Loyola Faculty and Student-body were delighted to welcome Father Edward M. Brown, S.J., as their Rector last year. Father Brown is no stranger to Loyola, and former students will recall his teaching here as a scholastic. After many years of study in Canada and Europe, Father Brown comes to us with breadth of vision and with an understanding of the problems that beset higher Catholic education. In him we have an indefatigable Rector whose sole concern is the progress of Loyola, and a Catholic humanist whose chief aim is to educate for life. We feel confident that under the aegis of such a broad-minded, talented and competent Rector, Loyola will rank as one of the leading Catholic colleges in the New World. During the past year we have learned to know, respect and love our new Rector. During a year which had its peculiar difficulties, Father Brown showed a happy combination of a rare good sense, a high courage, a keen sense of humour, and a great willingness to co-operate with all the activities and desires of the student-body. The gratitude of the students in their college days is ordinarily inarticulate, hesitant, self-conscious, and stammering. The Review takes this opportunity to extend the corporate gratitude of all Loyola students, Alumni and friends to Father Rector. The best compliment we can pay Father Brown is to hope that he may be with us longer than the customary term of office. b 4 م Anniversaries In 1891 the calm placidity of the hopelessness of the inevitable, into which men had allowed themselves to fall, was ruffled by the clear stentorian tones of the Supreme Pontiff, His Holiness, Pope Leo XIII, by the publication of his now famous Encyclical entitled ''On the Condition of the ышы. Classes . Forty years after, 1931, his worthy successor, Pope Pius XI, reaffirme the principles of that Encyclical by the publication of an equally important document entitled ‘‘Reconstructing the Social Order . This year, throughout the Catholic world, we are celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the first Encyclical, and the tenth anniversary of the second Ency- clical. Many changes have been wrought in the world since first Pope Leo spoke upon the condition of the working classes. Many have been the new governments that have come into power since that day, many, too, have been the new inventions to assist the workingman. But with these new inventions, with the latest methods of manufacture, there have remained, despite the warnings of that sane and far- reaching Pontiff, the old and insidious abuses to which the labouring class has been heir. True, great and humane legislation has been passed to benefit the working- man; laws have been passed for the safeguarding of factory employees, etc., yet LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 2 REVIEW withal, the lot of the working class has not been benefited materially. Leo XIII in his Encyclical clearly and boldly stated the social and economic evils that afflict every nation. The cure, he declared, could be found only in a practical application of the teachings of the Gospels. Pius XI showed how these principles applied to problems which had become pressing since the days of Leo. He urges the training of lay apostles for the mission of spreading the social teaching of the Church, and of aiding in applying them to actual conditions. He recalls that ALL are concerned and none are excepted; the aim is ‘‘to unite all in harmonious striving for the com- mon good, when all sections of society have the intimate conviction that they are members of a single family and children of the same heavenly Father, and further, that they are ‘one in Christ and everyone members one of another.’ May his wish be realized and may the anniversary of these great Encyclicals mark a renewed effort of Catholics, of the laity in particular, under authorized direction, to establish a Christian social order in Canada.

By ARTHUR WELBOURNE (Author's Note: One of my first Loyola activities was to write the following editorial for the then-mimeographed ‘‘ News ` (October 1st, 1937). It was my first impressions on entering Loyola. I take the liberty of reprinting it here with a companion piece I have written as a farewell toast to our glorious Alma Mater. Long may she reign!) “О Entering Loyola for the First Time. Your mind goes back, as you walk for the first time in these hallowed pre- cincts here at Loyola, to those days when you were a little boy in Prep. School, when morning rode the sky and all the world was young, and you feel and know that you're standing at the threshold of a new and greater life, a life, a stewardship whose value will be equally shared between the book and the ball, the laboratory and gymnasium and the classroom and campus. As you are held spell-bound by the majesty of the Retreat you feel that a base has been laid upon which you will build the imposing edifice of true, deep, and militant Catholicity, and you are reminded of those Pom the lips of the Great Teacher, Seck ye first the Kingdom of God and all else shall be added unto уе.” You thrill with that grand sense of camaraderie as a d Loyola cheer echoes up from some hundreds of throats and your ears ring, and your heart throbs as you attend your first Pep Rally”. There is a responding echo in your eager young heart to the clarion call of the great duties that beckon towards you to buckle on the armor that girt you in all those boyish triumphs and victories,—shining faith, unbounded hope and flaming, fiery courage, and ro take up the torch and going forth unafraid, to meet your problems and to conquer them. As you read and hear of the fine deeds of former Loyola men, you are reminded that at present you are serving the squireship to that great knighthood of Catholic leadership, and that the accolade is your gown of graduation; your shield, the Eunice go you acquire and your sword the sharpened mind of educated Catholic manhood. You may rest assured as you enter upon the glamour and chivalry that is Loyola, and sense its sincerity and purpose, that under the guiding hand of Ignatius the soldier and through the intercession of Ignatius the Saint, victory will follow your standard. And as you think of the vaba ова of Loyola's cavalcade, there comes to your mind the sentiment expressed in the lines penned by that great dean of clean, true sport, Grantland Rice: And when the last Great Scorer comes To write against your name, He'll ask not if you won or lost But how you played the game! LOYOLA | COLLEGE Page 4 REVIEW “Vale, Loyola” The years pass by so swiftly and we stand at Convocation's eve. The day we have looked forward to so eagerly for four years is now at hand, and yet it brings in its train a vague feeling of sadness and regret. The moment draws near when we must bid a reluctant Adieu to the Alma Mater that has been our pride and joy these many happy years. O happy college days that shall live on in Memory's future hour, you pass away so soon! And he did not desert us, our Soldier-Saint, the great Ignatius. He was there to guide us and guard us and be our intercessor; and we are proud that the year of our graduation marks the Four Hundredth Anniversary of his founding of the great Society of Jesus. We walk along the hallowed halls and relive old memories, the campus, classroom, stage and “‘lab’’ and Stadium, . . . all have their special ghosts for us. The breathless glory of the moment has рес perhaps, but the happy memories, the associations, the friendships, these shall not pass away, these shal remain with us throughout life. We shall not forget. Our pulses shall quicken and our hearts take fire with the old fervour at remembered ancient glories. Time cannot take our victories from us, nor its passage the treasure of our friendships! And yet there is a sweet sorrow about the parting of our ways. A sorrow tempered with the consoling knowledge that as Alumni we shall be privileged to continue on in the greater service of Loyola. ‘Т е glory of going on and still to be, as it were. For in whatever ‘‘corner of a foreign field Fate may chance to place us, there shall be a part of Loyola, for we are a part of Loyola, and where we shall be, there shall Loyola be, too, for better or for worse. God grant that it shall never be the latter! Then, Vale Loyola! Our pledge, each and all ''May Loyola ever be as proud to be our Alma Mater as we are to be her Alumni. Gentlemen, Loyola! y 4 г Life Men look on life with different-coloured eyes. To some the world's a garden, filled with sweet, Forbidden fruit, a sensual Paradise Where fools go self-denied, and wise men eat. To others ‘tis a sea of boiling grief, Where shines no sun, and never sails draw breath, But storms sink hope, and sorrows’ grinding reef Brings evil-fated souls despondent death. But to the man who knows his princely worth Life is a narrow, all-important span That links his own, unprepossessing birth To open-handed God's eternal plan. And death, a gloomy portal, opening wide, Discloses Heaven on the farther side. James MELL, '43. ч ) DUm L 77171 А eum quem hewn иг The men signed of the Cross of God Go gaily in the dark. Tue BALLAD or THE WHITE HORSE. The dawning of this Fifth Jesuit Century is sunless, as sunless quite as that first on which St. Ignatius looked out to see a Europe groping pitifully in the dark of a sick and almost decaying Catholicism. Into a world where the light of truth gutters and flickers before the gusty blasts of age-old heretics rejuvenated, go the graduates, High School and College, of 1941. They will find it harder than did their fathers to achieve that temporal peace and prosperity which God intended as the natural milieu wherein His sons and daughters should work out an eternal destiny. May Loyola's sons find inspiration, however, in the fact that their graduation coincides with the Four Hundredth birthday of the Company of Jesus, the Free Company of Ignatius of Loyola, who also in his day faced a crisis in Chris- tian civilization, and patterned the society which stayed the rush of the forces of darkness. That pattern has been presented to every Loyola graduate, a way of life which, despite exterior difficulties, leads surely to truly successful and fundamentally happy living. ` LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 6 | REVIEW | LEADERS A remarkable quality in the character of St. Ignatius,— | himself neither scholar nor genius save in the science of the super- natural life—was his ability to draw to himself and through himself, to God and to the work of God, brilliant and saintly men whom he met in the Universities of Europe, and in the Eternal City. Francis Xavier the most promising young professor of the University of Paris, James Lainez and Alfonso Salmeron, the gifted Papal theologians of the Council of Trent, Peter Canisius, Apostle of Germany and Doctor of the Church, such were his children, under God, the work of his hands. And within the lifetime of the saint they had carried the fight against heresy actoss the face of Europe, on a score of fronts, theoretical and practical, besides gaining new empires to Christ in the distant mission fields. The first two Jesuit centuries saw such names as Borgia, Bellarmine, Suarez, de Lugo, Vasquez, Bourdaloue, Campion, de Brébeuf, and many others, men extraordinarily qualified as leaders in carrying on God's work. Nor is it different today. The graduates of 1941 here pay grateful tribute to those devoted men who have shown them the meaning of a fibrous integral Catholic life, who have set their footsteps in the way of Truth. کہ Page 7 Loyola College Review m £ William Shore, Vice-President Lucien Cardin, President Francis Kaine, Secretary Loyola College Review Page 8 Harry Allen Patrick Barrett John Brayley Pierre Belisle André Bessette Page 9 Loyola College Review Robert Campbell Frank Cronk John Costigan Patrick Desgroseilliers Harold Fitzpatrick Loyola College Review Page 10 Leacy Freeman Eugène Gendron Jacques Gagnon Frank Hamill Martin Kierans Page 11 Loyola College Review Paul Limoges Paul Moore Victor Mitchell Gerald Mulcair Gerald Murphy Loyola College Review Page 12 Myron Murphy Joseph Sullivan Mark McKeown Terrence Thompson Arthur Welbourne Page 13 SENIORS Ist row: N.

LOYOLA Page 15 COLLEGE | REVIEW raAamatics Ir WAS. on the evening of October the twenty-ninth that the Loyola Dramatic Society raised the curtain on its opening presentation of the 1940-41 season. From that evening onward, dramatics enjoyed a lengthy and busy stay at Loyola. It is evident, in reviewing the work of the past year, that great improvement in all phases of our dramatic work, has been accom- plished. However, conscious as we are of the accomplishment, we are not ignorant of the short-comings of our many productions. As we have benefited during the past season from the mistakes of past years, so in the future we will remember the errors as well as the successes of the 1940-41 season which has so lately closed. As we have mentioned, the season oe on October the 29th, when three one-act play were presented. Eugene O'Neill's Where The Cross Is Made . was the opening production. Frank Kaine, as the tragic old sea captain, Bartlett, and Keith Russell as his son, Nat, were the key characters of the play, and on the strength of their performances the story sustained interest throughout. Gerald Kelly in the difficult part of Sue Bartlett and Art Welbourne as Dr. Higgins were efficient in lesser parts. | “Dress Reversal'', the second offering of the evening reminded one of that old standby, ''It'll Be All Right on the Night . This was a play in which performances were of necessity light and playful, and a slight tendency on the part of the par- ticipants to overact did not detract from its success. Dave Asselin, as the worried coach, gave the play a strong characterization. Pete Shaughnessy, and Jack Mc- Eachern, as a butler and a prompter respectively were the comedy headliners. Bob Meagher, Edgar Burns, and James O'Connor, a trio of unladylike ladies, and Harvey Seasons, Rod Dungan and Jack O'Brien as three rather odious gentlemen came through with good performances. The last of the three plays, was The Hiding Place by Clemence Dane. Asa tale of mystery and international intrigue, videl failed to mystify quite as much as it might have, it introduced us to the gallant Captain Dallas, V.C., played by Frank Hamill. Hamill and Mark McKeown as a surprising taxi-driver, carried the main burden of the action. Dave Sutherland and Kev Kierans appeared as desperate foreign ques and Frank Higgins, as the butler Kysh, made ВВ Loyola debut and may well be typed for life. On December the 8th, sodality night, two more one-act plays were produced. “Yes means No, a tale of the big business man's son, enacted by Paul Paré who was forced to answer No to everyone and everything for a period of fifteen min- utes, was the opener. Paré's performance was well done, as were those of Bob Brodrick as his father, and Emmett McKenna as an exasperated industrialist. J. Vanier and Jimmy Fonseca, as secretary and love-interest respectively, performed well. The Case of Johnny Walker! followed as the second offering on Sodality Night. Bob Weldon, as the grafting head of a detective bureau and Bob Joyce, as LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 16 REVIEW the well-to-do bloke from the other side as well as Greg. Driscoll as the unjustly accused prisoner gave this play vivid interest, and typed it as one of the best shorter productions of the year. Brother Orchid ', the major production of the year was given о the evenings of April 22nd, and 23rd. An excellent script, careful direction, pleasing sets, and most of all, fine acting, assured success of the play. And indeed it was successful. The only fault that critics found in the production, was that the religious content of the monastery scenes was slight ly strained and overworked. In noting this we must remember that Brother Orchid” was written from the Catholic viewpoint, and that people of other beliefs are apt to lose something of the significance of these scenes, and hence find them uninteresting. To this reviewer's mind, the most inter- esting moments of the whole play, were those in which Little John Sarto, alias Brother Orchid, was struggling with the new faith that was finding his heart in the monastery of the Florantines. The whole story revolved around the character of Brother Orchid, and as the story was deep and moving so the portrayal of the leading figure, by Frank Hamill was equally so. Playing in a part that stood either to make or to break the whole production, Frank Hamill rendered as sincere and brilliant a performance as we have seen on the Auditorium stage. Dave Asselin as Abbot Jonquil, was excellent in the most exacting role of the evening. He lent to the portrayal the dignity and reserve that was a fitting background to the scenes of monastery life. Bill Shore, as the bar-tender, Fat Dutchy, was as natural as if he had stepped out from an East End Saloon. Brothers Nasturtium, Geranium and Hollyhock, were enacted by Bob Brodrick, Dave Sutherland and Kevin McKenna, and each in his similar yet different part was excellent. Guy Desjardins, as the excitable Dominic Battista of the waving hands, and wild moustache, performed with zest and vigour. Bob Weldon as Freckles, Charles Audet as the Gimp, master racketeer, and Jack McEachern as Solomon the man with indigestion, were all as desperate and cold-blooded as was required. Pete Shaughnessy, in the role of the silent, dead-shot, Dum-dum, was steady throughout and his performance in the final scene, when Dum-dum shoots Little John Sarto, was a highlight of the play. As the final curtain was rung down on Brother Orchid” we all felt that the Dra- matic Society had once again triumphed. Certainly it did not suffer by comparison with the productions of former years, and to those who remember such plays as Yellow Jack and A Tale of Two Cities , this was as great a compliment as could be paid. On May the 7th, the last production of the year, the ‘‘Jest of Hahalaba’’, was staged as Loyola's entry in the Catholic Drama Festival. Robert Joyce, in the leading part, as Sir Arthur Strangeways, as well as Frank Higgins as his butler, were at all times forceful and steady. Luis Larrabure in the more spectacular part of an Alchemist was impressive. The whole punch of the play, however, was contained in Charles Audet's characterization of Hahalaba, the Spirit of Laughter. Painted from head to foot, and shining with an eerie green glow, he gave to his part the necessary mysticism and stateliness. It was with this production, therefore that the Loyola Dramatic Society wrote finis to the 1940-41 season, one in which many notable successes were attained. If the improvement is as great in future years, we need not worry for the success of future endeavours. me of ШЕ DOWN THE ALLEYS OF THE PAST By ROBERT К, JOYCE Eron has been famed down the ages as the breeder of leaders. The phrase che old school oe has been intimately connected with that shrine of toppers and tails. It has been said that the Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton. From a military viewpoint this is of course absurd; however, it may well be asserted that the English public school caste has proved to be an aristocratic, somewhat high and mighty type of individual who was none the less a gentleman ideally fitted to hold the reins of government of such a tradition-taped empire as the British. Eton is the mecca of that system; it is the oldest, the most influential, though I hesitate to say the best, English public school. It has been the criterion, it has set the standard of education in the country. A man is either an Etonian, or just a man. Naturally the democratizing process the British are going through, largely thanks to that arch-enemy of democracy, Adolf Hitler, has and will continue to revolutionize such a caste-conscious system. Yet indubi- tably Eton and the other public schools will adapt themselves to the new way of life. They will, or they won't be. It is therefore with a certain amount of pride that Beaumont, England's leading Catholic college, holds to the sub-title, The Cathol ic Eton. Here is a Jesuit operated college where the Ratio Studiorum and the old school tie have compromised and thrived together. The blending has proved eminently successful. It may be of interest to note how Beaumont was journalized as the counterpart of the Protestant shrine of learning. It would appear that not long after the war, Beaumont (then a small though enthusiastic community somewhat in the same osition as Loyola) challenged the almighty Etonians to a rugby football fixture. he headmaster of Eton in his best literary style wrote back to the effect, What is this Beaumont?’ Said reply being brought to the attention of the Rev. Fr. Rector, that clergyman, in a moment of blissful anger, coined the memorial phrase: BEAvMoNT is what Eton was, a school for the sons of Catholic gentlemen.”’ And it is not ill-fitting that Beaumont should be thus noted, for if Eton lies within a stone's throw of the regal Windsor Castle, Beaumont is situated but a few short miles from that haunt of the merry wives, and its wide demense overlooks the shady beaches of Old Father Thames. Under the patronage of St. Stanislas Kostka, the college has been prominent both in matters scholastic, and in the realm of sports, since its foundation in 1875. Starting off, in a small way, the former estate of British statesman, Warren Hastings, saw in that year a colossal group of would-be students, clamoring, panting, thirsting, in fact, for education. Twelve to be precise. Today Beaumont registers over 250. The Royal regatta of Henley constitutes the end of a long and weary trail for every oarsman. It 1s the summit of achievement, the peak of his rowing career. To play at Lord's in London is the prime ambition of every cricketer. Beaumont is the only college that ever sent an eight to Henley and a cricket eleven to Lord’s. But if cricket and rowing largely meet the eye, it is in the field of rugby football that LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 18 REVIEW Beaumont is foremost. Beaumont rugger fifteens have long been noted for their tenacity and do-or-die spirit. Be it said, they seldom died. Beaumont reckons many distinguished Englishmen among her Alumni, amon whom is the designer of Oxford University's Bodleian library, God's latest gift to the literary world, to wit, George Gilbert Scott. And Beaumont, too, has her Spaniards. Ralph Prado, formerly of Beaumont, and now attending Harvard U., is the son of Chile's president, or was the son of the president as this was going to press. The Spanish Ambassador in London, the Duke of Alba (a Francoite be it noted) is a past student. In point of fact it was a standing joke that Beaumont recognized the Franco government before his Bri- tannic Majesty did. And yet though this seat of learning (incidentally every college is allowed to call itself a seat of learning, though there have been cases where we would question the veracity of the title), is over 3,000 miles away from the metropolis of the North, yet it has much in common. It is notable that from Timbuctoo to Washington, from Nanking to New York, Jesuit colleges are much the same. There is a Dean, sometimes ie a Prefect of Studies; a Prefect of Discipline, and of course a Rector. There is ‘‘jug’’, in the King's English detention room ; there are ferulas, in the President's English the strap'. Things may have a different nomenclature (but then the English always did like their own way of saying things), still on the average the ropes run pretty well the same way. One last point. ‘‘Aeterna non caduca , which is Latin for ‘Т е things of the next world rate heavier sugar than the things of this , happens to be the motto of both Loyola College, Montreal, and Beaumont College, Windsor. Chamberlain Wet wind and sullen rain-cloud, mud-clogged tree, And soggy bush, bewail a joy that's fled. The lonely sparrows leave their minstrelsy And fall to mourning. Chamberlain is dead. His grieving friends lament his passing, mourn His sombre smile, his honest, gentle face. All free men know, though broken and forlorn, He ceased from life in triumph, not disgrace. He gave his life to save a world from war, Watched as his valiant efforts passed in vain, Saw treasures spoiled, heard cannons roar, And, nobly grieving, bowed beneath the strain. Тїз better so! For in death's sweet release He finds his goal, and heaven brings him peace. James Met, '43. Page 19 Loyola College Review QUATERCENTENARY A Scene from the Pontifical High Mass Rev. Fr. G. McShane, S.S. Rev. Fr. Ethelbert, O.F.M. CELEBRATION AT LOYOLA Archbishop Joseph Charbonneau His Excellency Rev. Fr. J. Frederickson Page 20 LOYOLA Page 21 COLLEGE REVIEW FOURTH CENTENARY OF THE SOCIETY OF JESUS ELABORATE celebrations marked the Fourth Centenary of the Society of Jesus. A solemn triduum at Loyola commemo- rated the dawn of the fifth century of the work of the Jesuits. His Excellency the Most Reverend Joseph Charbonneau, Metropolitan of the Montreal Archdiocese, ‘graciously inaugurated the ceremonies by singing a Pontifical High Mass at the throne on Sunday, April 20th. It was the first visit of His Grace to our College, and his charming simplicity and cordial geniality won the hearts of us all. Reverend Fr. Ethelbert, O.F.M., preached a splendid sermon, dwelling on St. Ignatius, his carly years and his conversion, his fervour of spirit and genuineness of religious practice; the missionary spirit that was engendered, that was to grow and spread in the course of centuries, including our own Canada with its heroic martyrs; the approbation of many Popes, and especially of His Holiness Pius XII, who bids all to rejoice over the four hundred years of their services. On Monday, April 21st, Mass was sung for the children of St. Ignatius Parish School. The celebrant was Rev. Fr. R. E. Kennedy, S.J., the pastor. The special speaker was Rev. Fr. John Frederickson, a graduate of Loyola and a former member of the parish. Simply and eloquently, he told them the story of St. Ignatius and his conversion, the many E he had to make to complete his education, the fact that he was the patron of the parish and of the school, and thus had a special care of the children who should honour St. Ignatius by their prayers and devotion. The High Mass for the students of College and High School was celebrated on Tuesday, April 22nd. The celebrant was Very Rev. Fr. Thomas J. Mullally, S.J., Pro- vincial, assisted by Rev. Frederick Noll, S.J., as deacon, and Rev. Fr. John Swain, S.J., as sub-deacon. A novel and highly pleasing addition to the ceremony was the presence of the Indian choir from Caughnawaga. This mixed choir, under the direction of Rev. Fr. Bernier, S.J., sang the Mass in their native Iroquois tongue, a privilege granted them by special indult from the Holy See. It is not often that we have been favoured in the college chapel by the singing of so talented a group, and it was fitting that one such occasion should be the Society's Fourth Centenary. The speaker on this day was Rev. Fr. Gerald McShane, S.S., pastor of St. Patrick s, Montreal. His stirring message pictured the Founder of the Society in his carlier years at Manresa fighting his victorious battle—he had conquered himself. The fee took us in spirit to the many interesting places in Rome made holy by the ife and labours of Ignatius and his companions. His phenomenal success was explained by his outstanding virtues of obedience, strict discipline as an educative force, the love of God as the only worthwhile motive in life, prayer, a deep humility and a tender love for our Blessed Lady. Fr. McShane urged his hearers to make use of one of the chief works of St. Ignatius, the Spiritual Exercises. A study of these in a closed retreat would make known to our boys and young men the Will of God in their regard. ''There is о joy in life, said the speaker, that compares with the satisfaction of work well done in the field of labour marked out for us by our Divine Lord.” | LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 22 REVIEW Monday's celebrations were brought to a close by a display vnusval in extent, though not at all foreign to Jesuit colleges. A lengthy academic program was run through, calculated to give the audience some impression of the class work carried on throughout the College and High School courses. While we do not maintain that each item of the very full program was grasped completely by the audience, yet the purpose of the event was attained. No one who followed this display from beginning to end is likely to contend that students at Loyola are on perpetual holiday. Among the special guests present at a dinner and at the academic display was the College Club—a group of professional men, prominent in the city’s financial, legal and medical circles. A dinner given by the Rector, Father Brown, on Tuesday evening to the Pastors, and another similar function on Wednesday evening at which the Assistants were guests, each followed by a dramatic entertainment in the College Auditorium, brought to a close the social events of the great anniversary. QUATERCENTENARY By BERNARD J. Fe LONERGAN, 5,Ј,, 24 As a pilot raises or dips his ‘plane or turns to right or left, so too does God rule. He is master of the hearts of men. Slowly, even suddenly, the pleasure or success on which one's heart is set might lose the blush of beauty, the promise of joy. Into one’s will might pour a fire that only sanctity could assuage. What would you do? It is a real problem, not to be solved as readily as those fancy who have never iven it a thought. Take the case of Ignatius of Loyola. His dreams had been of fats at arms and bright-eyed praise. But his dreams were changed. Bugle clear through the silence of his soul rang the call of Christ to men, to be men enough to live for the kingdom of God. Ignatius could not resist the claims of the Crucified. Yet what precisely was he to do? At first he leaped to all the outward, showy things. He left his home, his possessions, his hopes of a career. He gave his fine clothes to a beggar and put on sack-cloth. He lived in a cave, porog interminably, fasting to emaciation, scour- ging himself violently, and finding diversion only in performing menial tasks in the primitive public hospital of a nearby town. Still, where did this lead to? So he went a pauper pilgrim to Jerusalem and devoutly visited the scenes hallowed by the presence of our Lord. But when he revealed his intention to remain and work for the conversion of the Saracens, promptly he was bundled off on the first ship. What was he to do? The question bothered him. Thousands in every age have been as generous as he. Few, if any, have had his capacity for reflection, for introspective analysis. God led him on, but he kept his eyes wide open. Ever alert, he studied his strange experience. He would ask why he felt n ow overjoyed and again dismayed, now LOYOLA Page 23 COLLEGE REVIEW teady for anything and later overpowered merely by the thought of sticking his new life for a lifetime. These cyclic states of serenity and anguish, he observed, tabulated, compared. By dint of experiment—the terrific experiment of sayin ‘yes’’ to every good impulse—he came to know practically the answers я n theoretical theology and psychology together could hardly formulate. Another thing struck him. Usually God gives his grace not by buckets but by drops. It comes into our souls, not a fully grown tree of sanctity but just a seed. It makes us thoughtful; seriously we utter a prayer; honestly we make a good resolu- tion. But always there are the birds of the air, the rocks, the trodden wayside, the thorns. What came as a seed, remains merely a seed. It does not grow into a tree. Against this appalling waste Ignatius worked out a method of exploitation, a set of spiritual exercises, something for the soul like a coach for a football team. How much a team depends on its coach! But team-work with God's grace is an infinitely more delicate affair, and to teach such co-operation Ignatius planned and wrote out directions to be imparted in a thirty-day work-out (commonly misnamed a retreat). It is his masterpiece. The top-flight critics in this field—the popes—have never given any single book such repeated and such whole-hearted praise. One thing leads to another. To put his ideas across, Ignatius had to get an education. He was well over thirty, bs that did not impede him. Off he went, first to a Latin school at Barcelona, then to the universities of Alcala and Salamanca in which he did not get along with the inquisitors, and so finally for seven years to Paris. Of Paris he later affirmed that one learnt more there in one year than else- where in many. But as he was gathering in this human wisdom which competent masters can impart, he also gathered about him men. It was inevitable. He had something to give them. There was his room-mate from the sheep-cotes on Swiss mountain sides, who had kept his body pure and his soul in the high resolve to become, despite constricting poverty, a priest. There was the idol of an intellectual elite, Xavier of Navarre, who if contemptuous of picty also was afraid of debau- chery; he knew where it ended. These and some others found in Ignatius that rare combination: an incredibly intimate knowledge of the human soul in all its self- deceptions and unsatisfied, explosive aspirations; and simultaneously they found in him a decisiveness that belongs, not to introspective dreamers, but to the world's practical men and, most of all, to captains who lead troops in mobile warfare. Strange fellowship of students! Their talent might have placed them in the forefront of any enterprise. But an elderly undergraduate, a former officer, was the focus of their intimacy. His spiritual exercises proved a blood transfusion in their lives. Together before the dawn of our Lady's Assumption in 1534, seven of them went out towards high Montmartre and in the chapel of St. Denis vowed poverty and chastity and their aed SH to give their lives to the service of God and their neighbour. By 1539 they had done great apostolic work and, to perpetuate their ideas and their spirit, they decided to found a new religious order. To this project Pope Paul III gave official approbation on September 27, 1540. It is the quater- centenary of this scholastic year. What is, then, this Society of Jesus that came into existence four hundred years ago? Basically it is simply a matter of men: men from every social class; men labour- ing in every quarter of the globe; men devoted to a single cause, the service of Christ the King. But if you ask its special characteristics, these, I think, are three. They arise from the influence of Ignatius the soldier, the influence of Ignatius the ascetic, and the influence of Ignatius the student at Paris. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 24 REVIEW Most obvious to a soldier is the difference between veterans and recruits. No amount of make-believe can cover it. The Society attempts no make-believe. It gives men in its central corps seventeen years of intense training before admitting them permanently to its ranks. Clear-cut to a soldier is the difference between officers and men. To bridge the abyss between paper schemes and concrete reality, training alone does not suffice. There must be cohesion, coordination, the supple direction of a tank brigade. The Jesuit lives to obey: not the wooden-headed obedience of which Foch said: “To take orders literally is murder, but the intelligent subordination and adaptiveness necessary to make group action possible.” Manifest to a soldier is the matter of strategy. Not every game is worth the candle. One must distinguish different objectives. One must select, sacrifice here and concentrate there: not everything can be done. Thus the activities of the nascent Society fell into three integrated fields. Outstanding was its work in pushing back the frontiers of heresy: you can draw a line across Europe through the Netherlands and Germany to the old Ottoman Empire; to this day, south of that line is Catholic and north of it the Protestant sects; Poland is a Catholic outpost beyond it, and Geneva a Calvinist centre within it; but roughly that is the watershed. Still the Society did not merely send men like Canisius to Germany, like Bobola to Poland, like Campion to England. It worked on the home front. It entered the vital field of education. It came to dominate in the secondary schools of Catholic Europe, turning out the audience if not all the writers of the Grand Siécle of French Litera- ture. Simultaneously it poured into the mission field, the new lands of then recent discovery. Xavier rushed through the whole east, from Goa to Japan. More sys- tematic work followed his exploration. Astronomers went to live in the court at Pekin to obtain free access for their fellows who taught Christ to the people. The culture of India was studied: some lived the lives of Brahmin ascetics while others were pariahs of the pariahs; and the famous Malabar rites tried to adapt Roman liturgy to the oriental milieu. In the Americas the problem was not adaptation to a culture but the creation of civilization. Of this the first condition was the segrega- tion of the savages from the exploitation of traders and the violence of adventurers. Thus in Canada the great effort was made not rear the settlements at Quebec or Montreal but around distant Lake Huron; and the brilliant results such a method could achieve are revealed in the Paraguay Reductions, acclaimed even by agnostics as man’s nearest approach to an ideal republic. Plainly in all this the soldier's strategy yields place to the broad influence of university training. It had been at Paris that the rationalism of ancient Greece and the rude vitality of northern Christianity had clashed and then fused in the hands of Aquinas to the thunder-struck amazement of his day. The antinomy of faith and reason had been resolved, but two centuries later Constantinople fell and Byzantine scholarship moved westward to precipitate a new cultural crisis. Alcaic stanzas, Corinthian capitals and sinuous Platonic dialogue won a pagan day in the warm south. Against this humanism, conservative theology was bleakly negative. Still more reactionary, really, was Erasmus who would deny theologians the me- dieval achievement with its basis in Aristotle, while the revolutionary Luther, to whom reason was a slut and free will a fiction, rejected not merely humanism but with it humanity. Into this convulsion of western culture, as explosive and far more profound than the modern crisis of men and machines, came Ignatius’ men from Paris. Their solution was concrete; they opened schools that were not merely LOYOLA Page 25 COLLEGE REVIEW models of efficiency but as well educational syntheses combining and intertwinin the triple cord of Europe's heritage: the Gospel, articulated thought, and balanced humanism. Our own stricken day, in which apostasy, sloppy economic speculation and mechanized barbarism are at last revealing their true nature, more than makes manifest the wisdom of that educational programme. But no less than in the educational field, the influence of university training appears in the transformation which the Society effected in the concept of the religious life. Three great movements had preceded it: the solitaries that once peopled the Egyptian desert; the monasteries organized in the east by St. Basil, in the west by St. Benedict; and the medieval friars of St. Dominic and St. Francis of Assisi. The Jesuits found it possible to strike out on still another line, the very modern line of organized action. That grasp of current history has made their rule directly or indirectly the model of innumerable congregations founded since. Most notably, it was their clean break with monastic ideals that opened the way for nuns to step beyond cloister walls, to teach school and conduct hospitals and go off on foreign missions. Today such a practice seems obvious. But four hundred years ago, as Mary Ward discovered, to suggest it was scandalous and to attempt it was to invite fools, that infinite chorus, to cry out in most righteous indignation. Still the broadening influence of a great university, even of Paris, is far from accounting from Ignatius’ achievement. Not only a student, not only a soldier, above all he was a master of asceticism. If there is any ‘‘power and secret of the Jesuits, it is his Spiritual Exercises, his method of coaching cooperation with the grace of God. They alone explain the Society's record of two doctors of the Church, twenty-four saints, one hundred and forty-one blessed, one hundred and forty-eight officially recognized martyrs, one hundred and eighty-five men revered with the title of venerable. They alone have enabled the Society to live and die and live again through wave upon wave of slander, confiscation, expulsion and persecution. They alone can infuse some measure of, some approximation to, a common way of thought and character, into the novices that enter today in Tokio and Melbourne, Madura and Madagascar, Warsaw and Berlin, Lyons and London, Bogota and Guelph. And if the Jesuits of the present succeed in making any contribution to the solution of present problems, then it will be, as in the past, because each man finds himself in a frame-work hoisting him to the level of his better self, the spiritual frame-work conceived by Ignatius. y wg E: с The Modern Crusade The eastern sun in morning splendour Is softly gliding freedom’ s fender: O'er bended forms cast awestruck rays; The troopship steaming o'er the waves.

THE SPANISH CAVALIER Joun MacDonett, LOYOLA '44 With new eyes lighted by the light of faith, after wounds received in the suicide defence of Pamplona, Ignatius of Loyola looked out on a world in which love of God and a spirit of obedience to His Holy Law and His Vicar on earth seemed to have all but vanished from the face of Europe. A romantic to the core and a soldier to his finger-tips, the man who had aspired to win the love of a queen, to emulate the military exploits of the Cid or the heroes of the Amadis de Gaul, set himself to the formation of a flying squadron of cuirassiers of Christ, mobile shock troops ready to meet the foe on any field in whatever guise, men whose weapon of offence was a flaming love of God, of defence, a soldier's disciplined obedience to authority, a soldier's disciplined devotion to duty. Love of God and honourable obedience to authority were the lessons he imparted to his sons in a day when the Renaissance love of worldly beauty had flowered into corruption, when obedience to another was deemed degradation and self-destruction. Love of God and honourable obedience to authority are still the lessons of his sons, in our own day when intolerant totalitarianism preaches racial and national hatreds, and the necessity of a blind and slavish obedience to an irresponsible and God- hating state. This too the lesson that students of Jesuit Schools will learn,—that One is Good, and Lovable, God, and in the free and loving service of God, the menial is a king. ee E EE eae ЖЕК ae 55 T c V О ban eg e vg E, Me, v!

President of this mess dinner was Major Edgar Reynolds, a former commanding officer of the Corps. After the toast to the King, Capt. John Brayley ave an inspiring address, in which he recalled the part played by the Loyola Alumni fori in the last and in the present war. He mentioned that even now there were over 200 Loyola Alumni in the armed forces of England and Canada. Reverend Father Rector replied to this toast to Loyola College and remarked how gratifying it was to see how once again Loyola men had answered the call to arms in the cause of freedom, and that with deep trust in God, we could be certain He would lead us to victory. Besides Reverend Father Rector, there were present Rev. John Swain, Dean of the Faculty, and Capt. the Rev. Thomas J. Walsh, the Corps Chaplain. Lt.-Col. E. O'Brien, a former commanding officer, in making the presentation of the decoration gave a brief sketch of the history of the Loyola C.O.T.C. He then presented Lt.-Col. John W. Long, commanding officer, with the Efficiency Decoration which the King had seen fit to bestow upon him in recognition of the fine work he had done in the Canadian Army. After a thunderous ovation, Col. Long, addressing the Corps, thanked them for their rousing applause and showed his gratitude to the Rector and the Faculty of the College for the kind co-operation they had always given him. With the singing of the National Anthem and the Loyola Victory Song, the dinner was brought to a close. EL T LOYOLA COLLEGE CONTINGENT CANADIAN OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS By LIEHT. J+ P.

The men were quartered in barracks so there was, at least, no fear of having the roof blown from over their heads by a high wind, as has been known to happen to LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 30 REVIEW the unwary when under canvas. Nobody objected to anything except the ‘‘house- work . A broom and scrubbing brush waiting for a pair of strong arms to propel them around are a fearful sight and one that was often to be seen. The inspection carried out during morning parade managed mysteriously enough to turn up e very speck of dust that had been somehow overlooked by everybody else. Who would ever think of looking for dust on top of a door or behind a radiator? A tent has its advantages after all—that may have been the reason why the junior officers had them. Training got under way at six o’clock next morning with a stiff dose of P.T. on the Polo Field. A very good thing for the health indeed, but it takes a good bit of reasoning to convince yourself of it sometimes. However, it would be infinitely more difficult to convince the R.S.M. that you should have another half-hour's snooze. As a result, attendance was high. After breakfast, the morning parades began at eight o'clock; the training was varied and interesting, so that everyone set to work in earnest. After a certain amount of preliminary work, the different companies began to go out on tactical schemes and route marches. These exercises became progressively more intricate but were always carried out with great success. Several were held at night in spite of very rough terrain, poison ivy and the occasional skunk. A few casualties from the poison ivy . . . none from the skunks. This work gave rise to a new form of fifth column activity: wich malicious intent, spreading false rumours of night operations. It caused some to retire in full kit, so that it would not be so hard to roll out and dress in the dark—no lights after lights our . Field Engineering is an important part of a soldier's training, consisting to a great extent in swinging a pick and shovel. Everyone had a chance to show his prowess. The result was an excellent bayonet assault course, complete with trenches, shell holes, dummies and obstacles. A little pioneering had to be done as well; a road had to be cut through a bush in order to permit the mechanized transport to move up to a training area. The chips flew in good earnest for a few hours and the road was ready. To complete the training in engineering, the rolls of barbed wire were brought out and double apron fences began to spring up. Our high-speed wiring team under R.S.M. (now Lieut.) V. O. Marquez smashed flat all records for speed in erecting these obstacles. To round off the training and give everyone a chance to put into practice all the army lore he had learned, it was decided that the battalion should bivouac one night as a part of a tactical scheme. That night will not soon be forgotten. It was damp and bitter cold and the “‘enemy’’ were active. Flares, fireworks, Very-lights and blanks, with alarms every so often, were good competition against sleep. The dawn was welcome, and with the dawn came breakfast. After a short march to work out the kinks, an attack scheme began. Several hours were spent in prelim- inary manoeuvres to gain contact with the enemy and then the whole battalion, enemy and all, had to pile into trucks and return to camp to be inspected by Major General Tremblay, D.S.O., Inspector-General of the forces for Eastern Canada. The men were tired, unshaven and rather muddy, but they went through their paces in an excellent manner. General Tremblay expressed great satisfaction with the showing of the Unit. When the time came to pack and leave, everyone was sorry to go. There had been a La deal of hard work, but it had been interesting and the fine spirit dis- played by everyone made even the most unpleasant task a pleasure.

The good effects of the life were apparent in the march from Windsor Station to Unit Headquarters. The men marched, if not like veterans, at least like men trained and ready to go. Many of them are now on active service and everywhere they go their efficiency is remarked upon. Training in the theoretical ко of the course began in the fall. This was carried on, night after night, all through the fall and winter, and was followed faithfully. The militia examinations were written in March. The results proved the excellence of the instruction and the amount of work put in by the candidates. Over 90% passed the first paper and over 85% the second. The annual banquet was held in the Windsor Hotel. About three hundred were present. The highlight of the event was the presentation to Colonel J. W. Long, Officer Commandin , of the efficiency decoration, the reward for twenty years of efficient service in the Canadian Army. The following attended courses leading to qualification and passed the exami- nations: “A” Wing, Small Arms, Connaught Ranges, Ottawa: Capt. V. D. Mitchell Lieuts. F. Manley F. McCourt F. H.

ARTHUR WELBOURNE, '4l. LOYOLA COLLEGE lo | Page 38 REVIEW o k оо Ё SODALITY Z 4 COUR LADY OF THE Ï حو Shine ith thp bright бы ав Like the Sun in his Strengt € Stella Matutina © Harbinger of Peace + Tue school year 1940-41 marks the fortieth anniversary of the founding of the Sodality at Loyola. It has been an average Sodality year in many respects, but since December there have been four or five outstanding projects which deserve special mention. Fr. Daniel A. Lord, ) ., visited the city last September at the invitation of the Missa and the Union of Parish Sodalities. All Loyola Sodalists were present at Congress Hall to hear this great youth leader. With his ideas for running a Sodality in mind they returned to school and the Sodality began its fortieth year. Due to the fact that there was no longer school on Saturday morning, our weekly Mass had to be changed to another day. It was decided to hold the Sodality Mass on Thursday morning. Throughout the year this Mass has been held with clock-like regularity and the attendance has been very good. The Feast of the Immaculate Conception, December 8th, was the first really big event of the year. The day before the Feast, Saturday, saw approximately twenty Sodalists working on the decoration of the halls, the Domestic Chapel and the refectory, while at the far end of the main corridor in the Administration building a group of Sodalists, under the guidance of Fr. Noll, S.J., erected a beautiful shrine. Ât 8 a.m. the following morning Sodalists assembled in the Domestic Chapel for LOYOLA Page 39 COLLEGE REVIEW Mass and Communion. They returned at 5 p.m. for the reception of candidates and solemn Benediction. Rev. Bernard MacDonald of St. Augustine of Canterbury Parish, and a former Sodalist, preached the sermon. The reception was followed by the annual banquet and two plays were presented in the Auditorium by the College Dramatic Society: The case of Johnny Walker and ‘‘Yes means No’’. It was a successful day for the Sodality. Several weeks later Sodalists provided over twenty poor families with food and clothing in an effort to brighten the Holy Season for these unfortunate people. This practice, begun by the Sodality during World War No. 1, has continued to the present, and it ranks among the major Sodality events of each year. The second term saw the appointment of our director, Rev. H. Daly, S.J., as Chaplain of the Canadian Catholic Youth Union. For five years he had been Mode- rator of the Sodalities and his appointment left a vacancy extremely hard to fill. His capable successor is Rev. Thomas Walsh, S.J., at one time Prefect of the Loyola Sodality. An executive meeting was called soon after Father Walsh's appointment. At this meeting he wee that we have a campus celebration during the month of May to honour Our Lady, and invite the other Sodalities in the city to attend. This suggestion was enthusiastically received and from that day the energy of the Execu- tive was directed toward making plans, preparing them for execution, to make the undertaking a success. On May 11th, world-wide Sodality Day, open-air Benediction took place. A beautiful altar had been erected on the campus by our Sodalists. The celebration was a huge success, as evinced by the following report in the Montreal Star’: 1,500 STUDENTS VISIT LOYOLA Representatives of 35 High Schools Attend Special Services Loyola College was host to about 1,500 Catholic High School students, repre- senting 35 different High Schools throughout the city and known as the Missa, yesterday afternoon. The procession formed at 2.30 p.m. in the College chapel and proceeded to the campus. A guard of honour was provided by the Loyola Ge ent C.O.T.C. and the First Communicants of St. Ignatius parish were the flower girls. On the campus an altar had been erected. Benediction was celebrated by the Rector, Rev. E. M. Brown, S.J. In a short sermon, Rev. G. Emmet Carter drew a dark picture of conditions in war torn Europe and he asked: In how many countries today would we be allowed to assemble and honour Mary publicly? Benediction was brought to a close by the prayer for peace and the procession reformed to return to the chapel, where the celebrations were brought to a close. The final event of the year was a pilgrimage to Caughnawaga, Indian Reserva- tion on the St. Lawrence. After benedic a and a visit to the vault where lie the remains of Kateri Tekakwitha, our Sodality sponsored an entertainment for the people, followed by a social. It was something entirely new and everyone voted it a 100% successful evening. We have mentioned the outstanding events of the year but these are by no means the only ones. A Leaders’ Day was held at Marguerite Bourgeoys College in February, at which Father R. Rooney, S.J., was the speaker. Father Rooney is attached to the Queen's Work staff and consequently is well-known to Montreal Sodalists. Those attending were highly impressed by the different points enumerated LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 40 REVIEW as necessary in a leader, and many of our Sodalists have been working on those ideas ever since. For the month of May Sodalists erected a shrine in the main hall and kept it decorated with flowers oe) vigil lights. Each class had a shrine of its own, thanks to the efforts of our Moderator. During the season of Lent and also during May there was an 8.30 Mass daily for the day students. This is a brief review of the year. Looking back, we feel certain that Sodalists have benefited greatly from the many spiritual projects undertaken by the Sodality. May the Sodality, with the continued blessing of Our Mother, flourish and prosper, and help to make us, the Catholic men of tomorrow, true to Catholic principles and ideals.

JOHN BERCHMANS' SANCTUARY SOCIETY Since the foundation of Loyola College forty-five years ago, the St. John Berchmans’ Sanctuary Society has continued to grow until today it comprises about sixty-five resident student members and a very much larger number among the day-scholars and the boys of St. Ignatius Parish. In this Society, young and old are taught and prepared for the honour of assisting the Priest in offering the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Every year the Society pee candidates to take the place of those who leave; and this year, the number of resident students who received the instructions, studied the responses of the Mass and its ceremonies, exceeded all expectations. As is the custom, the members met at the beginning of the school-year to elect officers. On September 25, 1940, the first meeting of the Society was called for this purpose. The results of the election were as follows :— President Francis Kaine, '41 Vice-President Thomas Murphy, H.S., '41 College Secretary Lucien Cardin, '41 High School Cour James Muir, '41 College ра Allen, '41 Ronald McDonald, '41 Francis Kelley, H.S., '41 Paul Shechan, H.S., '42 After the elections, our Moderator, Father Corrigan, S.J., spoke to the members present. He stated his intention of stepping up the standard of serving Mass. He stressed also the orina of respectful demeanour and deportment at the Altar, since we represent the Congregation in our prayers. Oral examinations were to be given to all the members with a view to seeing that the answers were perfectly known. The new executive thanked the students for the confidence which they placed in them and the meeting was adjourned. On Sunday, December 1st, members of the Society attended their annual ban- quet, at which our Moderator, Father Corrigan, due to ill-health, was unable to be present. To him, however, we owe a very elaborate banquet and a motion-picture which everyone enjoyed. Councillors High School | LOYOLA Page 41 COLLEGE REVIEW During the year, we had many opportunities to show our ‘savoir faire’, since the Society of Jesus celebrated its Quatercentenary, on which occasion the Most Reverend Archbishop of Montreal celebrated a Pontifical High Mass at the Throne. Again, on a few special occasions, Very Reverend Father Provincial celebrated a Solemn High Mass for the students at which members of the Berchmans' Society served. All in all, it is a year to be remembered, and we, the officers of the past year, wish to tender our most sincere thanks to Father Corrigan for the way in which he has handled the Society and provided for our enjoyment; and to the officers of the coming years, we feel sure that they will find the Sanctuary Society one to which they will be proud to belong.

The shell hole over there, that’s where Jeanne and I used to see-saw. And that wreck, that charred mass of débris, that’s our ‘‘chateau’’. Who would know it. Jeanne—I expect she has grown Se It is how you say, queer, how you lose track—your people, your sister, and life, n'est-ce pas. Yes, we were happy in that quaint old house. Every week-end we used to drive into Arras. It w as a great city with all its tall buildings and sophisticated folk. That was before the bombs. Now! Well, now it is but a mangled corpse, a skeleton—last witness of an awful tragedy. They came, they came in their tanks, in trucks, on motor cycles. Thundering, crashing, crushing all that stood in their path. They were here and then they swept on, they were gone. No one, not even ei eer or Petain, could stop them. A superior race! That's what they called themselves. We, francais, we were pigs, the scum of the earth. Peut-être! Their army was better, we had no aero- planes. But were they really better? I ask you. I remember that day so well. We had been fighting our way back, bit by bit. We were many, now we were few, our 179th régiment. Mon Colonel was wonder- ful, he was everywhere—but those Germans. At us from all sides came their tanks, spitting lead, belching flames. Seigneur! How they came at us. And those Stukas; they were like the meteors that fall from heaven. It was terrible, I nearly went mad. I saw a man, his face shot off. Another his legs broken. I saw the tanks come on, burying the wounded in their path. God knows it was awful. Above us the British, they were wonderful. The Spitfires and the Hurricanes, they were like devils from hell. But too few, and too late. The British army? Who knows. Some say it was our fault, me, I blame the Boche. Yes, we fought, we fought until we came to the old house. Mon Colonel, the Bon Dieu rest his soul, decided to defend it. We spread out. I took a position near the pump in the yard. I remember how the chickens used to run around my mother's feet as she drew the water. And our big black dog. We waited. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 42 REVIEW In the night we could see the flash of the cannon in the distance—it was night. The earth quaked with the roar of the big guns. We heard it, and we waited, and all the time that terrible thundering came nearer—nearer—nearer. Mon Dieu, it was terrible. I felt tired. Despair filled me. I wanted to lie down and dream. Then they came. We battled with grenade, with gun, with cold steel. It was a bloody carnage, another Golgotha. But those tanks, nothing could stop them. On they roared. Would they ever stop? It was there by the old pump that they got me. He was a tall blonde lad with blue eyes; we struggled, he lunged, I was slow. I was on the ground with the cold steel of his bayonet lacerating my inside. Then blackness. I felt the blackness, and in those dreadful moments all my past life flashed before my eyes. The morning I stole the apples from Grand'pere's orchard—the afternoon I nearly drowned at Dinard, how anxious my dear mother was that day— the night I met Madeleine. Sweet Madeleine, my lovely wife. Twenty years for all this. Was it worth it? And out of the blackness came light, the light of hope. Yes, it was worth it, well worth it. We had not died in vain. France might be defeated, but France would rise again. Years of hate, of discord, of cruel tyranny, years of dictatorship, of hateful policies, of fighting alongside our old foe, there might be. But the mn of France—the dark-skinned people of the Midi, the hardened workers of Lorraine, the peasant folk of La Bretagne, they would not change. The proud Gascon, he would not change. They were French. Years may pass and years may go, but a new France will rise again clothed in her one-time power and glory to take her place among the free nations of the world. Again our people still ear up, proud, placing their faith in God, united under the Tricolor. France cannot die, she is immortal. La France est morte, Vive la France! y 7 T BRITAIN (Apologies to Macaulay) By PHILIP READY V V HEN Napoleon gained his dominant control in France, Britain was powerful; when Napoleon was defeated, Britain remained powerful. When Bismarck's Germany found power, Britain was; when Bismarck fell, Britain still stood. When the Kaiser rose to such ascendancy that the nations of the world quaked, Britain stood defiant at the head of the Allies; when the Kaiser's Empire fell, Britain was victorious amidst the ruins of Europe. And now that Hitler's juggernaut of destruction rumbles throughout Europe, who stands steadfast in his way?—Britain. Who is sweeping Germany's Luftwaffe out of the sky?—Britain. Who will triumph at the end of this barbarous slaughter?— Britain. Britain, the little island on the western fringe of Europe, has been the stumbling block of all these conquerors. When some traveller from the frozen wastes of far-off Siberia sketches the ruins of the Unter den Linden, the heart of Britain will still beat as strong as ever—as free as ever—it has, in the glorious pages of her proud history.

Page 44 Loyola College Review Sopatity Day at Loyora, May llrH z gp A MAN BIGGER THAN HIS WORK By LAWRENCE P. BYRNE Tue moderns, it seems, have decided that you meet the nicest people in your dreams, but with this tenet I find myself in disagreement. In my humble opinion, you meet the nicest people in books. And I don’t mean those ем types of homo sapiens and his mate; о, I mean the authors themselves. For example, take the school-year just completed. It brought an introduction to Scholastic philosophy. Scholastic philosophy, in turn, brought an introduction to the late J. W. N. Sullivan, one of the most interesting personalities I have ever come across. And I think you will have the same opinion when you read the following account of the man. To begin with, Sullivan did not make the most of his life. That, it seems, he realized himself. From no fault of his own, but by reason of circumstances, and of his temperament, he never rose to the heights such a richly endowed person as he was should have reached. If we are to believe that candid and revealing book of his, ‘But For The Grace of God’—part fiction and part autobiography—he did not know what to do with life. He had never been able to determine his way of life. From the practical point of view it was almost aimless, mostly as a result of a series of incidents. If the Mr. Shaughnessy of his book, ‘But For The Grace of God’, was his father, Sullivan was the son of a retired seaman who came from Ireland to take up a position to which he had been appointed in London. At this time Sul- livan was fourteen years of age. The first incident which turned him from the path he should undoubtedly have followed was of his own making. But he would not admit that. He passionately refused the opportunity of a University education. He writes, `“ТҺїз proposal, which aroused in my imagination a vista of unendin examinations, filled me with horror. I pleaded with all my might against so ge ful a fate, and I won my point. It was decided, therefore, that I should get a job.” He got his job and one—in a large electrical manufacturing concern—that was to his liking. But it gave him no opening for a career. Instead, it led him to the rather profitless pursuit of science from iie worldly point of view. That again was not a career for a man who had his living to make. Science, in the abstract, became a passion with Sullivan. That and music and literature. It was the things that mattered in these realms of the intellectual and mental life that mattered to him. He had a passion for study in these early days. And this was the young man who had so determinedly refused a University education! Privately he studied to good popoe One of his passions was for mathematics, which left him with a trained mind to pursue his study of scientific subjects, in particular mathematical physics and astronomy. It left him also with a mind that would be satisfied with nothing less than accuracy and the truth, so far as that is ascertainable. In these dominant interests of his, science, music, and literature, he went far. His scientific essays and books showed a deeply informed mind. His book, ‘Beethoven: His LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 46 REVIEW Spiritual Development’, holds a leading place in the literature of music. His achieve- ments were well summarized in an obituary article in ‘The Times’: Mr. Sullivan was a gifted interpreter of modern science, especially mathe- matical physics. His many books in this field delighted and informed a wide public, and he frequently contributed on the same topic to ‘The Times’ and ‘The Times Literary Supplement’. Sullivan’s first qualification for this task was a com- plete knowledge of his subject. He was a competent mathematician, and when the theory of Relativity made a big stir shortly after the war he was one of the few people in England able to penetrate behind the symbols. In addition, he com- manded a flexible and lucid style which made it possible for him to communicate his knowledge to the great reading public. His illustrations were apt, his explana- tions happy, and as an expositor of science he won his way to the same rank as Sir James Jeans and Sir Arthur Eddington.” Sullivan would not have cared for this comparison with these two supreme expositors of science whose disciple he was; he admired them too much. He had also an unbounded admiration for Einstein, whom he had the good fortune to talk with on several occasions. It was Einstein, in the early days of Relativity theory, who told Sullivan that he was one of the very few men in England who understood the theory of Relativity. And it was Sullivan who did so much in his essays and books to make the theory understandable by the layman, so far as that can be done. Sullivan, as I have said, was a gifted interpreter of science. As a writer he was perhaps too concentrated, cold ind logical; unless his readers had some previous knowledge of his subject-matter they would sometimes wish for more elaboration. But in conversation, his biographers assure us, using a license and freedom of speech, sacrificing exactness and technical phraseology, he would become intensely inter- esting and illuminating, even on that recondite subject of Relativity theory. That was because he knew his subject so intimately and could express himself so well in the way of communicating ideas to his listener, ideas that do not lend themselves readily to be set down on paper. One trait in Sullivan's character was its philosophic bent, but that was secon- dary to his interest in pure science. He liked knowledge first of all for its own sake, but he liked also to speculate on the philosophical bearings of modern science. A few years before his death he contributed an exceedingly interesting series of articles to ‘The Observer’ which attracted much attention. The articles were an account of personal interviews with the foremost scientific men of our day, including Ein- stein, Eddington, Jeans, Max Planck, and Schrodinger. The problems discussed and for which he asked and got direct answers from these famous men were what he called the fundamental problems, problems science cannot yet answer. Sullivan was quite qualified to meet these great men on their own ground, even to discussing Relativity problems with Einstein in German. The substance of these unique inter- views is found in Sullivan’s ‘Contemporary Mind’. One of his later books was ‘The Limitations of Science’, and it shows the trend of his thought. Two other little volumes of essays, ‘Aspects of Science’, were widely read, and ‘Gallio, or The Tyranny of Science’, is a delightful little volume. Among other books of his dealing with science are ‘Atoms and Electrons’ and ‘The Bases of Modern Science’. In many ways he was a SCH Se personality. Frustration is not the right word to describe the outcome of his life, but I think he harboured a sense of disappoint- LOYOLA Page 47 COLLEGE REVIEW ment. If you hinted that with his great gifts he ought to have made a big position for himself and a bigger name for ої Һе was silent and wistful. The oppor- tunity that would have given greater scope for his peculiar gifts never came to him, or he was unable to seize it. He had no gift for purposeful action. His energies were never directed to a definite end. Luckily he had usually as much literary work as he could cope with. Shy and a little sensitive, he drifted. He had an imperious and persistent mental appetite that never left him, and an amazing power of intense concentration on any study that engaged him for the time being. Of him, wrote H. M. Tom- linson: ‘‘His intuitions went farther and more deeply than the musings of other contemporary writers known to everybody, and, therefore, considered to be great. He exemplified the fact that the best of men are not the best known. Though that fact would have merely amused him, it was of no importance. The memory of his large, loose body, his spectacled and cynical grin topped by a shock of dark hair, e of his sudden interruption of a serious discussion with a drollery which blew it ч as light fun, seem now as important as his books. Perhaps personality, after , is of more importance than books, EXCHANGES V V E must apologize for the shortness of our remarks; we fully intended to give more space to the many year books that reach our sanctum, but time is really at a premium these days.

RICHARD BLANCHFIELD, '44. LOYOLA Page 49 COLLEGE REVIEW THE SPIRIT OF BRITAIN By GEORGE VANIER Tue people of Britain are at war. They have been at war for eighteen months, eighteen months of toil and strain. They have been in total war for a year, and that, a year of suffering and sacrifice. They have borne this as no other country could have borne it, because they are what they are: British. War pricked their sluggish minds, almost torpid in self-complacency, then stirred them into rolling activity, and at last goaded them into an inflexible purpose and undaunted perseverance. The Lion raised his head, stirred, started, snarled, roared and leaped. Egged on by his enemy, he snapped; hurt by his enemy, he grew furious; at bay before his enemy, he grew doggedly resistant. Yes, indeed, the British Lion has awakened to his responsibilities. Alone, the bulwark of civilization, he grapples against infection and the hand of war,” and against the envy of less happier lands, and is proud of the honour of bei ng the к айы of the right. War has united an internally divided people into a people of one mind, one resolve, one determination. There are no longer Conservatives, Liberals or Labour- ites; there is just one—Briton. No country in the course of history has stood as united as Britain stands today. War has broken down the social barriers; never before have the aristocrat and the labourer, the employer and the employee been able to talk on such even terms as now. Both suffer alike. Bombs smash the mansions of the rich and the hovels of the poor without distinction. The British are by nature slow, easy-going and self-satisfied, as a rule, but now war and suffering have awakened this people Кош its lethargy. And now it is the people, not the armed forces, who are bearing the brunt of the attack. It is the rst time in hundreds of years that the people themselves have fought; for indeed, every day and night they are fighting the incendiary bombs, the raging blazes and their own hunger. It is the people who are under fire; it is the entire nation that is striving for its very existence. A stoic sense of humour, not flippant nor frivolous, but grim, realistic and typical of the British character has emerged from the uncertain e dies of war. Their slogan might be: ‘‘ United we stand—and we shall not fall. And with God's help they cannot and will not fall. They are indeed in a vale of tears, but striving to ignore the stark realities of the present, they look forward to where, over the surly mountain tops, the dawn of victory must rise. Not only are the British people suffering, but, what is far greater, they know how to suffer,—in patience, with resignation and in hope. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 50 REVIEW In this greatest hour of her need, Britain is again turning back to God; she now knows that God is her salvation and that to God she must revert in order to emerge from this abyss of fear and struggle into the glorious light of victory. England, bound in with the triumphant sea Whose rocky shore beats back the envious siege Of water Neptune now beats back the surf of a greater tide than any св by Shakespeare. It is а relentless surf, but the rocks of England will beat it back. The British people have indeed entered a dark, grim winter; not a black winter of despair but one of trial and tribulation; a cruel winter, a winter of sacrifice. But the British people, undaunted, unafraid, await their spring. The Oral Examination I'll trade for a different body and brain, I pray for sense in a large ration; My mind' s like something left in the rain Since the last oral examination. When the examiner climbed into his seat, My heart went at a double beat; I soon forgot all things essential, And prayed for a ‘‘flash’’ like those of Winchell. He demanded a translation of Latin, I wound with a zero average, battin'; Then questions flowed in a steady stream, Terrible was my desire to scream; The examiner sat there, unseraphic, And my answers gummed, like snarled up traffic; Then he looked at me with clear disgust, For he surely thought me a perfect bust; When I slowly rose, my limbs were weak, And I thought I heard: Confidentially, you reck. So I staggered out without a sound, Newly king of dunces crowned. Now my old friends all despise me, And point to me as a ham. But on paper I can very wise be, Curses on the oral exam. This may not sound very pious, But then, in my fogged state of brain I'm far too weary to pray as I head for the early train. J. Roney, III B.

What grim words this message spoke! Had it been written in the blood of a dying hero, it would have been more appropriate. It was our firm belief that we had already suffered a hell, on earth; but yesterday, and the day before, and the unending file of days past, filled with the horrid spectres of war, were but a deceptive lull before the tempest. Was I to lead my men over the top to attempt a deed which was totally im- possible of accomplishment? Were not the shattered bodies of thousands and thou- sands of our dead comrades lying out there in that desolate graveyard we euphemis- tically named No Man's Land? No! That order must not be obeyed. Better by far that I should take my revolver and shoot down my own men, one by one. But as I look out into the still moonlight night towards the now-hushed enemy trench, I can see the soft rays of the pale moon dancing upon the lurid steel of broken bayonets once brandished by brave and gallant soldiers. And close by, lie the motionless forms of our country’s sons; they faced death—and blanched not. They accepted willingly the privilege of offering their lives for their country and its cause. Was I to prevent the men under my charge from sharing in this glorious honour? . . . Was I to prove myself a coward, show myself a traitor, a Judas Iscariot tempted by the hope of respite from ps, per qu discomfort? No! IÍ would much sooner die a thousand deaths than be branded with the stigma of coward, traitor, betrayer. As I pondered thus in my dilemma, a new spirit seized my soul, and the letters of that unrelenting message changed from ink to blood. Yes! to red blood; brave, generous, sacrificial blood; the victorious blood of a courageous hero dying in battle. May the hand of Divine Providence steer my ship of destiny, and the all- powerful grace of God fill its sails: for my men and I are about to die that the torch of Christian liberty fail not. -— SSK (LU D E 97 0 d LOYOLA COLLEGE o Page 52 REVIEW TWENTY-FIVE YEARS T HERE is within each one of us a desire and ambition that is continually striving for expression. No matter what the kaleidoscope fortunes of life may bring us, no matter what contrary influences emanate from the womb of time, we will find in the end that our lives have always been governed by that ambition which only a great love of something can inspire. Jean Drouin has always loved music. It has been the ruling guide of his life. And why not? Were not his father and mother musicians? True, they were not professionals. But what of that! They knew and felt the warmth and happiness, the exhilaration and ‘‘gaieté de coeur that is music. Not to be infected with a similar n was, for him, as impossible as it would be for Churchill to say ''It can't be done. Jean Drouin's first teacher was the late R. Pelletier, the fine-fingered organist at St. James’ Cathedral. From him he learned the elementals of real music—the key that was to unlock for him a world of unimagined life and beauty. When he wA Mr. Pelletier, he was no longer a recruit. For his advanced training he w ent to New York where, under Ovid Musen, that great teacher of music at the Royal Conservatory in Liege, he found the full expression of music that is possible only with the violin. The professor is now sixty-four years old. The delicate beauty of music has fared well in his hands. His students, like true musical offspring, have shown themselves well able to keep in tune with the musicians of the day. He himself could not but make his own teachers proud of his musicianship. Jean Drouin has played in the orchestras of such men as Victor Herbert and Giuseppe Creatore. As representative of the Federation of Musicians of America, and as president of the Musicians Association in this city, he worked hard and faithfully, and with great success, for his proes and ideal—music. Since Professor Drouin came to Loyola in 1916, music has had surges that reached the crest of success; at other times the task was discouraging, such as it must be when one has to depend upon the fluctuations of musical talent in an educa- tional institution. There were periods when talent seemed plentiful but instruments were lacking; there were periods of transition, of changes in instruments and musical appreciation; there was the conflict of new ideas in alliance with the radio that made one wonder whether the younger generation would ever be interested in making their own music. The task of spreading tone and musical shadows over the life of the College has been a stubborn one, but the professor was more than stub- born. Authorities and boys alike had to be convinced, and Jean Drouin did con- vince them. Only a man with the background and courage such as he possesses could keep up the task of making boys feel that a fine orchestra is every bit as im- portant as a fine football team. On this twenty-fifth anniversary we thank our mild-mannered professor of music. We thank him for his cheerfulness, for his spirit. We thank him for the melting airs, or martial, brisk, or grave. For music is a “thing of the soul—a rose-lipped shell that murmurs of the eternal sea—a strange bird singing the songs of к shore.’’—Ad multos annos! FRANK Konten H.S. '41.

R. Roy, R.C.N., was born in Ontario, April 1st, 1901. Son of James R. Roy, Civil Engineer and Inspector-General of the Dept. of Public Works, Cmdr. Roy graduated from Loyola. Later he entered the Royal Naval College of Canada, where from 1916-1918 he won honour and respect. After a distinguished career, he attended the Royal Naval Staff College in England, and until June, 1940, was attached to Naval Service Headquarters as director of operations. To his wife and his two children we wish to tender our most sincere sympathies. His death has been a great loss not only for his near relatives, but also for Canada. He was a true Loyola man, a noble Canadian and a gallant Catholic gentleman. .The bravery and courage he has shown will not have proven in vain. Wherever Canadian seamen meet, they will speak with reverence of the Captain who went down with his ship— he has set an example to the fighting men of Canada, to all true Catholics, to all Loyola men. We salute you, Cmdr. Roy. R.I.P. yooy y THOMAS KIRKWOOD The Review is indebted to ‘Student Prints ' of D Ану McGee High School, Montreal, for the following article. Do not pray too much, I say. Does a hero need much prayer? Tondoos' is a hero according to all good principles. Would not God con- sider him a hero?” These lines are taken from a letter received by the parents of Tom Kirkwood, written as a message of consolation and faith by his brother Frank to the father and mother in their hour of mutual grief. Tom Kirkwood joined the Navy in August, 1939. Having been overseas, he came back to Canada on the Hunter! at Christmas. Having missed her when LOYOLA ` COLLEGE Page 62 REVIEW she went back to England (she was soon after sunk at Narvik), Tom joined the Assiniboine . His trip took him to Jamaica and then to England. There he joined the ‘‘Fraser’’ which was soon afterwards sunk off Bordeaux. Luckily he was rescued. After this lucky escape he was sent to Plymouth and from there to London, where he was set to build air-raid shelters. When this job had been finished, Tom received orders to join the ‘‘Margaree’’. She was getting up steam in preparation for leaving when she was bombed. Unable to leave, owing to the damage she received, she remained in port for two weeks. Eventually she left and was sunk in collision about four hundred miles off the Irish coast. And Our Hero”, having answered the call to action, was called upon to make the supreme sacrifice. Tom spent a year at Loyola before going to D'Arcy McGee. He was а stocky youngster with a lively disposition, an active member of First High A and of the various small boys’ teams. It is recorded in the class chronicle of that year: ''Kirk- wood breaks his leg out of devotion to the class motto: ‘Ad astra per aspera’— just see what that sermon on ‘spirit’ is doing’’. Tom showed that he had that spirit in abundance when the time came. Death has not put him out of the fight, although it has removed him from the bloodshed and suffering involved in it; his merits and prayers are powerfully as- sisting to a successful issue those who carry on the struggle to overcome the powers of evil and to establish the reign of justice on the Peace of Christ.—R.I.P. FATHER JOSEPH A. PRIMEAU, $.J. J OSEPH ALFRED PRIMEAU was born at Lindsay, Ontario, on the second of October, 1876. His family was English- speaking, though most of his relatives in Quebec spoke French. The English Course had been in existence three years when Joseph Primeau came to St. Mary’s College, Bleury Street, in 1891. While at St. Mary's, Fr. Primeau was taught by Fr. O'Gara, at present at Loyola. He started his rhetoric year in 1896 at Loyola College, just opened at the south-east corner of St. Catherine and Bleury Streets. A year later, August l4th, 1897, he entered the Novitiate of the Canadian Mission at Sault-au- Récollet. He was thus the first student of Loyola to enter the Society. He made his study of the Classics at Florissant, Missouri, and his Philosophy at the Imma- culate Conception College, Montreal. During his five years of regency, Fr. Primcau taught High School classes at Loyola College, which had by this time migrated to Drummond Street. During Fr. Primeau's years of Theology at the Immaculate, the Lay Retreat movement had its inception on this continent through the zeal and energy of a fellow-theologian, Fr. Papin Archambault, S.J. A couple of English- speaking theologians, one of whom was Fr. Primeau, extended this work, though necessarily in a smaller way, to English-speaking laymen. After his priesthood, Fr. Primeau had much to do with the organization of retreats, and he is the chief originator and was the mainstay for several years of the Retreat Association of Montreal. His talent for organization was also shown in the work he did in connec- tion with the Catholic Social Guild. Fr. Primeau was at various times, Minister, LOYOLA Page 63 COLLEGE REVIEW Bursar, or both combined, and Parish Priest. From 1939 to his death, amid periods of sickness, he was moderator of the Catholic Laymen’s Retreat Association in Montreal. He was at the Montreal Convalescent Hospital, some friends visiting him, when the final heart attack carried him off, on January 31st, 1941. We miss him especially, because a good part of his life was spent at and about our school. He was pastor of St. Ignatius’ for two periods, during which time he lived at the College and followed College activities with keen interest. Very fre- uently the fine work which he did was done despite severe ill-health, and when Ces it became impossible for him to continue strenuous activity, he remained here as Chaplain to the Catholic Laymen’s Retreat Association. But the loss is not ours alone. A good man cannot help but make the world better, whether it be by direct or by indirect means. Father Primeau did his share in both ways. His work was carried out in different places in the course of his life: Guelph, Winnipeg, Port Arthur, Montreal. At each of these centres his influence was the personal, friend-to-friend appeal that pervades regions far beyond those in which it is first felt. He met a part of the world face to face and that part passes his word on to the rest. The funeral Mass, said by Reverend Father Rector on Monday, February 3rd, was attended by the students of the College and High School, by many members of the clergy, and by a large representation of the late Father’s many Gaeren universal tribute to one who spent himself in the service of God and his neighbour. R.I.P. ALBERT LEWIS Apert came to Loyola in 1935, a bright, chubby boy with an infectious smile and a love of games. He was a boy of sterling character, a hard trier at his work, and, still more important, a boy of solid piety. When he reached the hospital after crashing, the nurse found in his clothes his heals. two statues and his prayerbook, proof that his early piety was real and sincere. In the outdoor aspect of school life he was an outstanding football player and a keen hockey star. It was his fortune, in a way, to strike a class of no mean ability as athletes—a class that was a consistent winner і intra-mural sports. He learnt the value of that line fighters all that never give in. An adventurous nature led him into the Air Force, in which he was particu- larly happy. The nature of the life gave scope for the latent qualities d a very manly character, while, all the time, he grew in the affectionate esteem of his fellow airmen. Sunday, May 25th, he had been visiting friends near the College— Monday came the shocking news that Bert had crashed. While making a solo flight not far from the city, he had evidently become confused by the smoke from nearby forest fires. The priest and doctor were summoned, and Bert had the consolations of his religion before being transferred to the Neurological Institute, Montreal. He lingered there in a semi-conscious condition until he died, Friday, May 30th, at 5.30 p.m. The funeral took place on Monday with full military honours following a Requiem Mass sung in the College chapel by the R.C.A.F. Chaplain, Flt.-Lt. Father Hamel R.I.P. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 64 REVIEW SAMUEL HUTCHINSON Loxora lost a very loyal Alumnus when Samuel Hutchinson was called by death. Last August his countless friends were shocked to hear of his sudden and tragic death in an accident at the Cournor Mine near Val d'Or. Having graduated magna cum laude' ' from Loyola in 1938, he was following a course in Mining Engineering at McGill University, and it was while gaining practical experience in his chosen field that he was so suddenly taken from us. Samuel Hutchinson came to Loyola in September, 1903, on a scholarship from St. Leo's Academy. From the very outset he gained for himself a most distinguished scholastic record. He was an excellent mathematician, he delighted in the Classics and he was the leading philosopher of his class. He was truly a brilliant student. Nor did he excel in scholastic attainments alone. He was a strong supporter of all Loyola extra-curricular activities. To mention only a few instances, he was asso- ciated with the Loyola News and the Loyola Review, and in his final year he was Editor-in-Chief of the Review. In his senior year he was a member of the victorious debating team which won the I.U.D.L. Beatty Cup. Sam had the rare ability to think and argue while on his feet, and this along with his clear and logical reasoning made him a forceful, convincing debater. In the short while he was at McGill, Sam did everything he could to champion Loyola and all it stands for. He organized a debating league in the Engineering Faculty and was a member of the executive of the Engineering Undergraduates’ Society. His views were highly respected and admired by his fellow ES erm and his editorial on the need for proper reasoning and clear thinking published in the McGill Daily was considered by McGill's Principal as the best editorial ever to appear in that publication. His life was rich and full, and above all else he was a devoted Catholic. He lived a good, clean life and was a frequent communicant. He defended his Church from the attacks of outsiders and they admired him the more for doing it. Samuel Hutchinson was a loyal Alumnus, a good and true Catholic and a brilliant student. To his bereaved mother we offer our most heartfelt sympathies. GERALD JOHNSON, B.A., '38. y L T JOSEPH EARL RYAN Tue REVIEW, on behalf of faculty and students of Loyola, on behalf too of many alumni, wishes to express to Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Ryan and family, its heartfelt sympathy on the occasion of their recent sad bereavement. Despite the knowledge of his protracted illness, news of his death came as a shock to the many students, past and present, who had known Joseph Earl Ryan. Joe, only son of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Ryan of Notre Dame de Grace, was born March 3rd, 1914, and received his primary education under the devoted supervision of the Presentation Brothers of St. Augustine's School. LOYOLA Page 65 COLLEGE REVIEW Entering Loyola High School in September 1927, Joe soon made a place for himself in the varied activities of the school, and carved his own niche in the esteem and affection of the numerous students who recognized his many sterling qualities. Though not actively participating in major sports, because of a heart condition which caused his doctor some anxiety, he was an unswervingly loyal supporter of every Loyola team. Chiefly interested in the school’s thespian endeavours, he was a very active member of the Loyola Dramatic Society, and will be best remembered for his polished performance as Mary Grayson in one of Loyola's very finest productions, lr Pays to Advertise’, in 1932. Ill health forced Joe to desist from studies some months before graduation, and after a period of rest, he entered his father’s business in the leather belting trade. Besides taking an active part in this business, he was, before his last illness, made Secretary to the Montreal Power Commission Council. It is a pleasure to record, and a credit to his training, that he brought to parochial enterprises, all the energy and enthusiasm which had characterized his participation in school activities. His was a spirit after the heart of Pius XI, the great Pontiff of Catholic Action, a spirit fervent and apostolic. He worked un- tiringly in any cause truly Catholic, was an active member of the parish study groups, an indefatigable committee man in every charity drive, an usher at St. Malachy’s Parish Church. Not even his recreations took him away from the Catholic circle in which he exercised so salutary an influence, for, an enthusiastic bowler, he was chief organizer and president of the St. Malachy's Bowling League. Some seven months ago, Joe contracted the illness which was to bring to his Father's house a soul surely dear to that Heavenly Father. The best efforts of the best physicians failed to check the ravages of a serious blood infection which spread throughout his whole system. During those last trying months, his cheerfulness, resignation and unselfishness were a source of edification to all who visited him, and a fount of strength and comfort to his family. Unwilling to be a cause of trouble or inconvenience to others, he bore the tedium and pain of those long days in a manner made possible only by the many graces he so richly merited. Fortified by the Last Sacraments, and in perfect disposition to meet his Saviour, Joseph Earl Ryan died Friday, June 6th, 1941. He is survived by his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Ryan of Notre Dame de Grace, and by his sister Doris М.—К І.Р. V 7 у PETER SIMON From the Loyola News of November 14th, 1940. On Sunday, November 3rd, as the Seniors were winning their second straight Catholic League championship, one of their most ardent supporters was closing out his greatest battle—the battle of life. This youngster was Peter Simon, who passed away in St. Mary’s Hospital. This is the first time in many years that we have mourned the passing of a fellow-student. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 66 REVIEW Peter was a happy little youngster, a member of Preparatory, but popular with all those who knew him in the school. In his short stay at Loyola, having arrived only this September, he set out to make friends with those in his new home. It is tragic to note that Peter was in ill health upon arriving here, having heart trouble as well as diabetes. Though often apparently in good health, Peter was continually suffering; and in his quest for fun he was frequently doomed to failure, for it was often physically impossible for him to do what other fellows did. Suddenly on the morning of Thursday, October 30th, he collapsed and, after a few days in the Infirmary, he was rushed to the hospital. Here, despite heroic attempts by the doctors, his gallant little heart gave up the struggle. We mourn his loss greatly here at Loyola, because even though young and new he possessed the qualities of a Catholic gentleman. But we also rejoice with him, for he has passed to his just reward, fortified by the last rites of the Church. R.I.P. LFF PHYSICS AND METAPHYSICS By M+. KIERANS Ir is a truth that in the last century and today there was and is a tendency and spirit in all forms of man’s social and personal life to welcome, to adopt with eager enthusiasm and accept as proved any theory which seemed to disprove and deny the basic principles and methods which had been hitherto dominant in religion, science, art, music, economics, politics and education. Edwin Schroedinger, a famous scientist, called this tendency or spirit zeit- geist’, (a German word roughly translated to 'spirit of the аре’). Ir seemed the authority of tradition was a drawback rather than a recommendation for a theory about music, art, science, politics and religion,” he said. Marxian economics was welcomed popularly, not because of its intrinsic value as an economic theory, but because it was based on and used principles which over- threw old and long established ideas and principles of economy. The new music—modern jazz in its many forms; the new art—‘‘surrealism’’ and other schools in painting; and ' 'super-realism'' in literature, all received much of their popular approval because of the “‘zeitgeist’’ . The enthusiasm with which Einstein’s theory of relativity was proclaimed was due to ‘ ‘the impression that it constituted a complete overthrow of Newtonian doctrines, whereas relativity is an expansion and refinement of Newtonian physics.'' (Planck). The new theories of government, democracy, totalitarianism, communism, became popular under the push of this modern spirit of rejection of the old and substitution of the new. The real tragedy of our age is that this zeitgeist attached itself to the spheres of religion and philosophy. Philosophy and religion dealt with the eternal truths, and having nothing new ` to offer, suffered especially at the hands of this modern spirit. LOYOLA Page 67 COLLEGE REVIEW Darwin's theory of natural selection and numerous false theories on the origin of the Universe received their popular support, not because of their value as purely scientific theories but because they were theories that seemed to do away with God and the old religion. It would be foolish to state that this ‘‘zeitgeist’’ was the only cause for the many attacks on religion and philosophy and that it was the only moving force of our time and accounted for all modern historical facts but it seems clear that there certainly was and is such a spirit and tendency in our age and it has had some in- fluence. It would be difficult to say what the cause of the zeitgeist was but there it was and is. It would indeed seem foolish to attempt to disentangle the jumbled skein of man's inner motives in all places and times and say this ‘‘zeitgeist’’ at this time, due to this cause, accounts for these historical facts. Other things must be taken into consideration; but in our day we think it is safe to say that a spirit exists which tends to substitute new ideas for old ones purely because of novelty and specious truth. We call this spirit, for convenience, ‘‘zeitgeist’’. It is difficult to say where and when the zeitgeist affected science, philosophy and religion and much more difficult to say where it affects and when it affected pou and metaphysics but this zeitgeist really did affect them and results were isastrous for both. Coupled with other forces, the spirit of the age drove physics and metaphysics farther and farther apart. Because their aims, instruments and methods were so different, it was assumed that their purposes and courses must be divergent. The zeitgeist said: “Тес philosophy grow cold and die. It has nothing new to offer. This new physics, build your fires under it, nourish it, warm it with fires of genius; it offers immeasurable new vistas of knowledge. That's how it happened. The physicist divorced himself completely from metaphysical concepts and methods of investigation. The metaphysicist built a wall about himself and refused to dabble with experiments. Т е mind was enough for the philosopher; the laboratory enough for the physician. The physician drew minute, intricate, ingenious and complicated murals on a portion of the vast wall of human knowledge, while the philosopher on the wings of the mind flew up and out and tried to focus the whole picture that the Great Artist had limned in His mind's cye; tried to find the аре the message and the story of that picture. The physicist groped with his five senses, the metaphysician with the only “‘sixth’’ sense, the mind. Yet all the time they thought they were working toward different goals and neither would admit the value of the other's goal. All that time they were really working together in some great task, to dis- cover and deduce and draw a world picture that would be truthful and conformed to reality, both in intricate detail and general broad design. It often happened that out of the experimental maze that physicists drew and followed with such care and patience, a line would emerge and sweep and curve up to the unseen limits of the wall on which they were working. How often, too, the physicist by gloriously ingenious devices tried to follow that curve to its end or junct ion but he tried in vain for he could only go so far and the mystery of that line would be there always, it seemed. There was no harm in acknowledging a mystery but the Bureaux was unwilling to do that, and so, with his untrained mind—untrained for pure speculation—he entered the realm of the metaphysician. The line the physicist's instruments drew was firm, unwavering, and above all cer- tainly true but the line the physicist’s speculation drew was weak, discontinuous, LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 68 REVIEW shaky and often turned back on itself, and then indeed there were weird scrawls drawn on the wall of knowledge. When the Quantum Theory, a speculative theory ingeniously fitted to and based on experience seemed to lead to a denial of free will and the Existence of God, strange and devious were the twistings and turnings of the scientific mind to untangle the web of contradictory experience. Here was science which had based its very exis- tence and all its conclusions and magnificent results on the principle of causality and led apparently to a denial of this very principle; the one which enabled it to make its much vaunted advances and which was its very life blood and its nourishment. Some physicists, in desperation, said their senses were unreliable and so contradiction could never be proved. Some said the principle was just a tool, useful for a while, but then to be dis- posed of when no longer useful. Some said ‘‘Deny the principle of causality.” The wise ones answered ` Bur that logically denies the existence of God and Free Will. ' Well, deny them, too, it was insisted. When the results to human society of such a denial were envisioned, many demurred. Yet the battle went on until indeed the very к of physics seemed to be forgotten. It should have been apparent to them, but it was not, that their instruments, which were experimental data, and their senses, had limits and they had reached these limits. The radius of their instruments was limited and could only draw a true line of a certain radius and beyond that other instruments would have to be used. The pua d iy сз had that instrument and had used it for hundreds of years. With his mind and logical arguments as his tools the metaphysician draws a line of much larger radius, that is, however, just as truc and exact as the scientist draws with the tool of observational data. But the instrument of the metaphysician has its limitations, too. The philos- opher could only draw the broad outline of the mural of the Universc, leaving the scientist to fill in the intricate details, which because the Universe was made by the All Wise, certainly must fit in and make a coherent whole. It was when the metaphysician unwarily tried to draw the intricate details he feli into disrepute and came to be distrusted by scientist and layman. One cannot draw a good blueprint with a pencil of charcoal. Thomson, in his book ‘Т е Common Sense of Science , tells us how a famous scholastic philosopher, basing his conclusions on logical arguments, tried to prove even without verifying his results by experimental data and notwithstanding direct observational evidence to the contrary, that the earth could not possibly move in an orbit around the sun. Some of his reasons were so cogent and logical that some of the principles he postulated have been used since to good advantage by scientists. He was wrong, of course, because he went directly opposite to observational facts and the only way these facts can be denied is to deny the truthfulness of the message the five senses bring to the mind. No philosopher would deny this, at least no scholastic philosopher. He tried to use his mind unsupported by his senses, that is, by pure speculation, to solve a problem that required, in addition to the mind, certain facts on the inate behaviour of matter, which no amount of logical arguing will change. The instrument he used was too blunt to draw all the intricate details of the Construction of the Universe. Thus, because the physicist and metaphysicist did not realize they were working on the same picture, though each with a different instrument and from different Page 69 FOURTH HIGH A Ist row: W.

LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 74 REVIEW MAPPING THE METEORS By RICHARD CRONIN Tine The call rings out, as another star falls: swiftly and silently, racing through the outer atmosphere, and dying in a blaze of glory in a futile attempt to reach earth. Not all of these attempts, however, have proved futile. In Arizona there is a crater about three-quarters of a mile long and one hundred and fifty feet deep, which was formed by the prehistoric fall of a huge meteor: airplane views of certain regions of the Carolinas reveal numerous oval craters, some of them a mile or more in length—ages ago this region was bombarded by a swarm of meteors. A great group of meteors fell in the densel wooded stretches of Siberia in 1908: they devastated miles of rich timber land. And so these blazing messengers of the gods, who, could they speak, might tell many a weird tale i the “Ether Trail , are not altogether harmless. These falling stars are, in fact, particles of meteoric matter, ranging in size from marbles to fair-sized rocks. Occasionally they are much larger. As these bodies, flying through space, come into contact with the upper strata of the earth's atmosphere, the friction created by their arrested flight heats them into incadescent globules. We see them as luminous streaks forty or fifty miles above the earth. Usually they burn up and fade out, sometimes leaving a trail of light behind them, and drop to the ground in the form of a fine metallic dust. It has been estimated that many tons of matter are thus added to the mass of the earth annually. At one time or another, you have all seen meteors, or shooting stars , as they are commonly called. You may have played the ancient game of ‘‘Counting the Falling Stars , while reclining on a hillside under the open sky. Many, I know, have marvelled at the brightness and lucidity of these fiery arrows of the gods. But did you ever consider charting the paths of these nomads of space, which move with almost the speed of light? One night last August, a party of ten Scouts or so, of which I was one, under the leadership of Mr. E. R. Paterson from headquarters, made this most interesting experiment. We had been detailed by the Scout Commission to chart a special wave of meteors, due at that time. The results were to be sent to the observatory at Toronto. Similar groups had been stationed at different vantage posts across Canada. We arrived at Bois Franc, a Scout week-end camp-site about three miles outside Cartierville, approximately one mile from the air-port; time about nine p.m. It is an ideal observation site, lying as it does away from highways and the interfering glare of lights in the centre of a large open space. We were divided into four teams of two each—one to face each point of the compass. The two remaining Scouts assisted Mr. Paterson. Each group arranged their blankets in the direction to be covered, their heads towards the centre of the circle thus formed. Mr. Paterson and his aides sat in the middle of us at small tables, equipped with dimmed flash lamps, charts,—all the paraphernalia needed to chart the meteors. There were timers, ticking at one second intervals to help us time the duration of each meteor's flight: watches to gauge the exact time each star falls. While we arranged all this, Mr. Paterson after focusing his camera on the section of sky where the meteors would LOYOLA Page 75 COLLEGE REVIEW be thickest, made very black coffee, ‘‘to keep you nuts awake while you re lying down star-gazing.”’ We downed the coffee with biscuits and cakes, and started on our business for the night. The sky was wonderfully clear and dark making the stars stand out like miniature spot-lights rather than hazy points of light. On the Northern Horizon quite low, there was a slight aurora borealis. We ho ed it would not spread upward to interfere with our show. The stars'' were already in play as we got last minute instructions: “When you spot a meteor in your own district, said Mr. Paterson, Shout ‘Time’. I'll note down the exact time, give you its number (25th or 453rd). You tell me its approximate magnitude and its characteristics—whether it left a trail of light, split in half, S-curved, and its duration. Mark its path immediately on your map, with its number beside it. Equipped with maps and flashlights, we crawled into our blankets. The maps coveted our section of the heavens, showing its main constellations. Each of us had two maps, for each half of the night; for the constellations swing round (appa- rently) as the earth rotates on its axis. So we settled down to work. I call work , though that is a misnomer. A job as novel and thrilling as ours hardly warranted that misleading appellation. Still it was not as casy as we had anticipated. We were naturally a little anxious (to beat the other teams in the country and there was little talking at first: no noise except the singing of crickets and the high-pitched whirring of mosquitos— 'almost quiet enough to hear the flash of the meteors”’ as one of the fellows put it. For the first twenty minutes or so, things moved slowly with only one or two meteors a minute. Our eyes sometimes played us tricks; and we could only check on an hallucination by asking our partners. Now and then an argument arose about details. Did No. 213 leave a trail of light behind it? Or had it curved to the east, rather than towards the west? Was it of number two magnitude or number four? (Magnitude of meteors is reckoned by the apparent brightness of adjacent stars). Added to these bickerings among us tyro ‘“‘magi’’, was keen com- petition between teams. Mr. Paterson was kept busy keeping up with us in his calculations and changing films in his camera. Yet occasionally the human element came into play to break the monoton of his work. Said he during a lull: That's 297 so far.''— Time? queried one ul, wondering how long we'd been at it. Ah! that's 298! said the leader with a chuckle, as everyone hooted. And so we spent the night, from ten pa until one a.m., watching the skies closely for those evasive streaks. We chalked up 397 to our credit, breaking the record which had been around 300. We hated to stop; and only grudgingly admitted that we were a little sleepy. But Mr. Paterson decided it was time to close up shop. “Besides, those Northern lights have crept up; and the sky is rather hazy,”’ he said. He was pleased with our fine work, as was Dr. Millman of the David Dunlap obser- vatory in Toronto. He greatly values the observations made by Scouts, having recently used one of our Scout charts in an exhibition. For our night's work, we got our names in the local papers, an article in the Scientific Monthly, and a print of three excellent meteor snaps Mr. Paterson had taken. And perhaps best e all, there was the invitation to do the same job next year—an invitation eagerly, if sleepily, accepted by all.

Y y CHRONICLE OF THIRD HIGH A N EVER lose a good opportunity''—Here, it seems to us, is an excellent occasion to sum up the achievements and particularly the success in scholastic enterprise attained by our class during the past year. We are proud of a record which tells us that almost one-half of our number flies the banner of at least second-class honours (80%). This, I believe, places us on certainly the same level as the best classes of Loyola, and upon this reputation we may well look with a certain amount of justifiable pride and satisfaction. At the beginning of the year, we immediately settled down and began our job as any model class is expected to; and we have adopted, not only for this year but for me the motto of ‘‘Work before (but not to the exclusion of), play. ' Besides educational endeavours, we undertook various other activities, such as the Penny Scho- larship Fund and all the intra-mural sports. Third High A was the third class, of the thirteen in the STA AN Va, But to every man there openeth A high way and a low, And every man decideth The way his soul shall go. Jonn OxENHAM On embarking on some high enterprise, there is a certain strength in the thought that one is not alone. Such companionship brings with it not merely the help of coopera tive effort, but gives to each individual as well the comforting reassurance that the course on which he has entered is a right one, the means taken the proper to attain the goal. Each May and June there departs from the halls of Jesuit schools a great army of trained graduates taking their places in the world where they find countless others who have followed the same course of training, and who have found that it has blessed them with sound principles enabling them to meet life breast to breast. Thank God we graduates of Loyola will not be members of that sicklier hand of natures who, despairing of finding within themselves the strength to meet difficulties, to shoulder responsibilities, quest everywhere for a superman, who alone is re- sponsible, whom all are bound blindly to obey. A sound philosophy has shown us that life itself is a responsibility from which death is the only emancipation. And each man is fundamentally the moulder of his own destiny,—rage how they will the exterior forces which circumstance him round—since each will decide his eternal destiny for eternal weal or woe. This was the fundamental doctrine of Inigo of Loyola, ‘‘уі се teipsum’’, conquer yourself,—a soldierly ring to the words. This too in our own day the doctrine of those Jesuit sons of St. Ignatius to whose hands our affectionate parents have en- trusted a large part of our formation.

Thank God for it! Confidence and hope, courage and fortitude will be needed by the men entering the lists of life in this solemn hour of world crisis. They are not unaware of the difficulties ahead, these laughing boys of the glorious ‘teens. Radio and newspaper make clear the chaos of the times, and intensive military training has lent a grim and sobering tone to the gay panorama of school life. But in religion classes, in Sodality conferences, in the philosophy lecture room, they have caught a glimpse of che glory of the coming of the Lord,’’ and humbly confident in the protection of the Lord God of hosts, and under the leadership of His Divine Son, they march resolutely into an anarchic and stricken world. کہ TET a EE — aim nat CNN AST кы 4 Ж Z LOYOLA Page 79 COLLEGF. REVIEW school, to reach the twenty-five dollar mark for the P. S. F., and Ï assure you the money was well earned. In the intra-mural games, football, hockey and softball, we managed to win three, grand, moral victories; but I hasten to add that we had sacrificed nine of our best athletes to the School's football teams and six to the hockey teams. We alone had the distinction of using our own, original cheers at the class sports. Class-spirit, always subordinated to school-spirit, was so fostered that no matter what we took part in, we were always one hundred per cent behind those who represented us. During the month of May, we boasted the finest shrine in honour of Our Blessed Mother (to quote the words of a visiting professor) in the entire College. Nor did our devotion to Her stop with external praise. That briefly indicates the highlights of our school-year. And as we look back over the educa- tional labour, our sports, our other activities, we may feel justly pleased with the results that have crowned our efforts, justly proud of the class-spirit, unity and generosity that were fostered. Then, finally, we may turn our admiration and respect, our obedience and love into fervent prayers of thanksgiving to God for giving us one so capa le of guiding Third High A through the year's work as our own class teacher. Tue Cass PRESIDENT. SECOND HIGH A IN RETROSPECT W E are on the home stretch and are going to pause for a few moments to look back on a very successful year, and give you some of our impressions. After we tell you how we, as a class, made our presence felt this year, we shall become slightly per- sonal and do some dismantling of parts to see just what made us tick. First of all we are a brainy bunch. The Dean's Honor List always had a good many of our names on it. We gave a rattling good Specimen of what we had done in English, French, etc., and when the Elocution Contest rolled around, we had eight representatives, four of whom reached the finals. In sports, too, we were always up there at the top. We made the finals in football, hockey, and softball. e have two boxing champs, speedy sprinters who kept Loyola's name up in the Interscholastic Track Meet. And I ask you, what would the school Bantam teams have done without our generous co- operation. Let’s adjust the microscope and examine the parts that kept this marvellous machine purring along so smoothly. In early September we put our heads together and elected a wonderful executive. President Don Bussière has justified our choice in every way. In class and on the field he has been a real leader. His private life and all the heart flutters he has caused among Montreal's maidens are outside the scope of this work. For further information on this point see 'Sylph' Rondina, Don's secretary, who tends to his Date-Book. Vice-President Ed Boyce, Barre, Vermont’s contribution to our assemblage was fine as V.P., but he just about drove Teacher crazy with his stock question, ''Gee, Father, are we responsible for that? Bernie Gollop, our smilin Secretary-Ireasurer, did not have very many greenbacks to play with, so he took to bagging birds and nineties. In both he was a colossal success. Now meet us, the governed. From Chicago hails Sleepy Joe Sheen, who can argue his way out of the tightest corners. Big-hearted Drury Allen has certainly done his share to make Teacher’s room look like a pawn shop what with all the books and gadgets he has provided. From Venezuela we have Joe Colmenares, our boxing champ and authority on the meaning of strange English words. With him comes Jose Mateu, a sartorially resplendent gent who rhumbas à la Miranda they say. Luis Saldana, intimate friend of the President of Mexico, generally likes to do things another way. When it comes to Architecture, however, he conforms. His drawings recently gained him a ninety- eight per cent from the Minneapolis School of Art. Antonio de Souza, Souzie to his friends, is awfully shy. Teacher: All right, give us the memory, Souzie. Souzie: (Pause) One kiss my bonny (Pause, gulp) sweetheart. I'm........ Teacher: Start over, and don't be bashful, and please don't swallow your hand. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 80 REVIEW Though we, the boys, speak the King's English at all times, we can’t say the same for Teacher. He will deny this, but little John Vanier all the way from Merry England, has undeniable proof in a little notebook crammed with ‘‘queer’’ expressions, as he calls them, which our maestro has barked out at various times in the heat of battle. We're not blaming him too much, however, as the tem- perature becomes pretty torrid at times. Roland “Mickey” Carriére they say has his eye on the mayor's office in Amos. If he runs for mayor as he runs for Loyola, he is a cinch. And now meet the day-scholars, that gallant band that braves winter winds and spring showers day in and day out. Albert Boisjoli and Louis Renaud from nearby, do their part to keep our standards high. Terry Murphy, the Poet of Spring, shines at Third High Chemistry and Aeronautics as well. Jimmy Leahy has not quite recovered from a major disappointment. He was abed the night our Bantams played off at the Forum. Better luck next year, Jim. Brian Danaher plays with baby brother while doing his Algebra it is claimed, but no one kids him about it because Brian is our other boxing champ. Johnny Meagher is walking around on air these days as Claude Corbitt is starring at bat and afield. John himself was the hero d a number of Bantam football and hockey games. Gordon “Now I ask you'' Panneton can get into and out of an argument faster than any of us. From an artistic point of view his examination papers are worth about minus ten, but ‘quoad’ matter they're ‘tops’. Charley Phelan, the Candid Camera expert, is not quite sure yet whether he is supposed to major in Graphology or Calligraphy. Woo Woo's laundry tickets are clear as day compared with some of Charley's Algebra or Latin Home Work. Lawrence Doherty and Paul Orr belong to that noble band of public bene- factors, the Boy Scouts. Marshal Goering’s collection of badges, ribbons, cords, etc., just isn't men- tioned in the same breath with theirs. Lorne Champ Camirand has one for Picturesque Speech: When you feel like exercise, just lie down till the feeling passes away. The saying may not be original, but Lorne surely puts it into practice. Disbelievers in this theory of inactivity are dashing Philip Faughnan and debonair Vic Ryan, model students inasmuch as they hail from the town of Mount Som, Vic, the very image of Baby Sondy, was cheated out of a movie contract by a curl, they say. Lionel Walsh and Bob Johnson were inseparable in and out of class. Finally, for everyone's peace of mind, it was decided they would be inseparable just out of class. Now both are doing well. Hughie Kerrin, the apple of our Greek teacher's eye, is just one of those interested in knowing whether Bill Humes' Helen can compare with the Helen of Troy he has read about so often in Homer. If she does, Howard A. McDonough (forget the initials) our own great Canadian writer, plans to devote all the time and energy he can spare to glorifying her in his own inimitable way. You can bet it will be his own and really iine We have all heard fish-stories and believed some of them; the same fate has caught up with Frank Connors’ Horse Tales . We must concede one point, however, he really has a horse. How do we know?—show them the pictures, Frank. Walter Mystery-man'' Kurys (except to Claude Dorion) is a whiz at the books. We all wish Claude would imitate his pal a trifle more closely, and II A would have another eighty per-center to add to its list. John Mulligan has favoured us with his presence occasionally. Hard Luck, in the form of illness, hit John this year but next year will be different, we hope. Charles Charlemagne Trottier, the “new kid from Ste. Thérése won our esteem and admiration in short order. Le professeur de Français” has no trouble peddling his 'avoirs and êtres” except when Charley is present. The fur flies, antique grammars appear and the friendly(?) little duel is climaxed by “АП right, I'll find out and let you know to- morrow. Any more questions? —and we all take the hint from the “don't you dare ask а у more tonc. Last but far from least we have Monsieur Francois Girard, a newcomer to our midst. He came up from Prep at Christmas, and fitted right in. La Belle France” can justly be proud of her contri- bution to the best of all classes, Gead, High A. THE CLASS.

LOYOLA Page 85 COLLEGE REVIEW SECOND HIGH B (Class Chronicle) A vz, gover'r, they're a queer lot, but jolly good fellows.” After many months of arduous work, this reliable locomotive still rolls ahead ever onwards, keeping the stronger, while dropping the weak. It needs no engine; a modern device, called a robot takes its place. Mr. Carroll, S.J., our teacher, is the fireman heaping coals on the fires of our knowledge. The bumper on the engine is Paul McGee who is invariably at the head of the class and sustains the shock of the most difficult questions. The huge wheels are four of our leading scholars: Callaghan, Kennedy, Flanagan and Guimond, who set a lively pace for the others. The whistle, a small affair, but a good noise-maker, is none other than Owen Maloney, the midget of the class. Jerry McDonough, a man of altitude, a diligent muncher of contraband goods, can be compared to the engine furnace with its voracious appetite for carbonized matter. Kohler and McCarney, frequently threatening and striving to overcome the leaders, form the coal-car of the Second B express. The mail-car with its heavy load of John Boileau's correspondence and Corrigan's cartoons is followed by the baggage-car weighed down with the dog-eared bocks and shabby scribblers. Train- man Kane who examines the wheels occupies a berth in the baggage-car. Next follow a number of cars. In the first we see J. Daley and Bob Boyle, strong, silent, young men, athletes and scholars. There is Ray MacDougall, crack shot and Second B's representative in the C.O.T.C. As inseparable as driver and engine are our President and Vice-President, those well- known twins, Ed. and Fr. Langan, who cannot get along without pal John McMullen. Jerry Gallagher, our Senior hockey star, stares away at the ever changing sky. Who is this?—Oh the conductor or our genial master of ceremonies (we have a case now; let's open it) Mr. Joe (Red) Dansereau, alias Hayward. Our express has a car borrowed from the South American Lines, which was easily linked up with the others on which we are proud to carry Colmenares, Tous, Larrea, and De la Haba, the South American Gauchos. All are very good in English and Spanish, especially Spanish. The slee of our train is red-thatched Kierans, a frequent visitor to the land of erg When not employed at da arduous task, he is a good student. Luciani, sometimes an occupant of the sleeping-car, becomes alert when there is an exam in the near future only as long as it stays in the near future. Brennan makes his way back to the parlour-car where he will find seated in its comfortable chairs such familiar figures as Burns, Cox, Reeder, the new addition to the class, and Little John Lally, ready ears to hear the praises of Verdun, but only ears; there also sits Labine, Arvida's Andy Devine, humming ever so softly Down on the farm . L. Facella finds the strains a likely barrier to his insurance talk.

It is true that other colleges curtailed their activities so that military matters might be furthered, but in the opinion of many, the total abolition of all sports was too radical a step. Football coming at the season of the year that it does and coinciding with the first stages of the OTC'S reorganization did not hamper to any great extent the advancement of military training. It was a great thing to be able during these days to find some diversion from the rather striking head- lines of de times, and sport of any kind is the thing which will do just that. Of course we realize that sport should be minimized under the circumstances, and to continue as previously would be to the detriment of all those who would like to apply their time to affairs ма him But with Major Brennan as coach and at the same time instruction officer in our OTC, we were sure that no time which should go to C.O.T.C. matters went to football. Proof of this lies in the fact that the Captain of our 1941 Rugby squad is now Pilot Officer ''Eddie ' Asselin busily engaged at present in fighter patrol work over London. Certainly there was no mistake made in playing a few exhibition games. Although no actual league existed the games the team played served to bring out the old peculiar ‘Maroon and White Spirit. Yes sir. Odds don't count with men who fight. With the announcement that some few games were to be layed, the students, like a bear heralded by spring, gradually slung off their lethargy and came to lif. Once again the campus echoed with the cry of eager voices, the thud of pigskin and a general air of activity was everywhere dominant. Major Brennan still had Cardin, Shore, Mulcair, Kaine, Allen, Ryan and many other regulars. High School teams added McCallum, Warren, Braceland and power house Реге Shaughnessy. The Major took to his task immediately. An outstanding Alumnus and star on the 1937 championship team, Major Brennan gradually brought the boys up to a standard nothing short of sensational. Joe Cardin and ‘Tiger’ Shore were elected co-captains in mid-season to replace Eddie who received his call to the Air Force. The opening contest was a bitter pill to swallow. The newest of new Alumni teams drawn from the finest of our 37, 38 and 39 squads served up another defeat in traditional fashion in a thrill-a-minute manner. Dick Paré, Phil Shaughnessy and Paul Ouimet carried the entire attack for the Men of Old. Phil passed once to Paré for a touch, passed again to Ouimet for another and made a beautiful intercep- tion for a third. Dick Paré was outstanding plunging with all his old-time zip. The College was not outplayed, however, and at times successfully carried the Old Boys off their feet. The Vick way in which the Alumni took advantage of situations spelled our defeat. Warren passed to Kaine 30 yards for the first Maroon and White touchdown. Jake Warren and Pete Shaugh- nessy carrying the ball almost every other time marched 95 yards for another unconverted major. It seems that the College played far sounder ball than their opponents in this tussle, but the quarter- backing of Norm Smith, together with the work of Paré and Phil Shaughnessy proved a trifle too much for them. Final score of game. Alumni 17, Col lege 10. Orrawa 8———Loyo a 5 It was a clear hot day that saw the Collegian forces tangle with the Garnet and Grey of Ottawa. Some three thousand fans lined the field and crowded the grandstands, as Captains Cardin and Shore led the Loyolans onto the field. Ottawa boasted some heavy linemen and fast backfielders. Their boast was not far amiss. Captain Dufour of Ottawa had brought down a total of thirty men; Major LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 88 REVIEW Paul Brennan had twenty men to throw into the fray. With less than five minutes of play gone, Pete Shaughnessy and Jake Warren carried the ball behind clever interference, some eighty-five yards for an unconverted touchdown. Warren carried it over on a thrust through center. Loyola featured some clever passing and lightning-fast darts to bring the ball deep into enemy territory only to have it fumbled. Ottawa now in possession advanced to midfield, where on a tremendous kick, Dufour scored a rouge. A bad kick, a twenty-five yard penalty for roughing placed Ottawa in possession on the Loyola one-yard line. Ottawa touched and converted to ead 7-5 at half time. A single rouge scored late in the last quarter completed the scoring for the day, Ottawa winning by 8-5. It was a very even struggle all the way, with advantage of the play going to Loyola. With the exception of the time when they scored their touch Ottawa never seriously threatened. Tremendous kicking made up for the ground-gaining plays Loyola hurtled at the Ottawa line. Dick Ryan and ‘‘Tiger’’ Shore, were the bulwarks of the Loyola front wall, with Warren, Shaughnessy, Braceland, Allen and Costigan backfield threats. Dufour, Driscoll, Tremblay, Harbic and McCullaugh were the best for Ottawa. Orrawa 22 Lovora 0 The scene of this Ottawa triumph was Varsity Oval at Ottawa. Some three score Loyola fans travelled with the team for the game; they returned somewhat dishea rtened. An auto accident on the way up, in which some six e the team were involved is generally believed to have been the cause of the let-down. Ottawa and Loyola played a scoreless first quarter, both sides opening up right to the hilt, with neither side able to take advantage of scorin, apo oe Kicking did it, however, in the second quarter, when Ottawa with Dufour back kicked to the deadline four times to lead 4-0 at half time. A serious injury to Pete Shaughnessy hampered to an extent the ball-carrying thrust of our power backfield; led by Joe Cardin, Loyola in the third quarter intercepted a furious Ottawa attack to further stave off any scoring. It is in games like this that drama really takes place. The fourth quarter opened with Ottawa in the lead 4-0. Ottawa ball on Loyola 45. A long pass places it on the 12.

Twice more Loyola stop those Marauding Ottawites, but the third time, they yielded and broke, Ottawa scoring to touch and convert, to lead by 10 to 0. That was the end of Loyola for the day. Ottawa just would not be denied, for they scored two last minute touches for a total of twelve points to lead finally 22-0. Contrary to the score, the defeat was not such in the eyes of the Loyola team for when the going had got tough they had staved off, five times in succession, an Ottawa goal-line bid.

YOU observed, on the Loyola campus last September a dejected and drooping coach, gazing disconsolately at thirty-five light-weights P. T.-ing with zest, blocking and tackling with more of dm and zeal than of timing and finesse, that man would doubtless have been Mr. Sheridan, S.J., the senior coach. Between шк exhortations to ‘‘put something into it, he might have been heard muttering in dismay, ' Weight, speed, strength, experience, where is it? And there wasn't any answer, it wasn't there. When a coach loses 27 of 32 letter men, and finds the replacements a group of junior and ex-junior players, ostensibly lacking all the physical requirements for senior competition, there is reason and to spare for greying hair and furrowed forehead. The situation was well summed up by a remark this reporter heard the coach pass on to Captain Eddie Emberg after a particularly discouraging practice display. ‘‘It’s a tough break, Eddie, that you had to be captain this year. A census of early practices revealed that only five of last year's Interscholastic League Champions were on deck for duty,—of whom only three, the first, were first string men, Eddie Emberg, Kev Kierans, George Morley, Happy Seasons and Chuck Tabio. Gone the victory-compelling power of Pete Shaughnessy, gone the flying heels of Jerry Castonguay touchdown-bound, gone the smooth passing and cool leadership of quarters Jack Warren and Danny Shechan, gone the granite bulwark of McCallum, Haymes, Bill Brown, Brodrick, Frank Davis, Manuel Mier y Teran, and Punchy Mc- Nally, gone the stalwart secondary defence work of Hughie Braceland. It seemed there wasn't anything left, that the season of 1940 would be merely one of constructive work for the future, a season in which the inglorious objective would be the holding of opponents, scores to a minimum not too disgraceful. To make matters worse, there were ominous reports from St. Leo's of the brilliant play of the O'Connell's, Tubby and Long Jawn, of Ciceri and Vic Lattimer. Catholic High were reported to be stronger than they had been in ten years, while McGee would field a e of the usual high double blue calibre. And yet the Warriors of the Maroon and Green come up with an unbeaten and untied record and the Interscholastic League Championship, and lose the city title in a heart-breaking tilt with Westhill by a hair-breadth 2-0 count! How does it happen? I could write a book on the Odyssey of the Warriors’ rise to greatness, on the games they pulled out of the fire when the cause seemed lost, but there is no room for my rhapsodies here. To my way of thinking, one factor and one alone, accounts for this success, a factor reflecting the more credit on the team, in the degree that things of the spirit are finer than things of the flesh, an indomitable and dauntless will finer than the possession of fleet feet or strong backs. This will find expression not only in the heat of actual competition, but in docility under instruction, generosity in work during the practice hours, the complete and willing subordination of the glory of the indi- eg the good of the team. A team that has learnt football that way has learnt much more than ootball. In six of our eight league g ames our squad went into the second half trailing, or if the score were even, the tide of battle had been strongly against us. In each case it was nothing but a flaming fighting spirit which brought victory. It is no discredit to the team of 1940 that we rate them inferior to the former Гоуда champions of 1932 and 1939 in striking power, in experience, and in finesse. Their’s was a higher quality and possessed in a higher degree than any Loyola team we've seen in 12 years at Loyola. Loyola is justly proud of the boys of the Warrior squad of 1940. Should present age restrictions remain unchanged, next season the team will bid goodbye to the following: To Captain Eddie Emberg, quiet unassuming Eddie, ideal captain, whom we rate the greatest end ever to play for a Loyola team, college or high school. In his final game for Loyola Eddie = his greatest display against Westhill, the net gain round his end being a minus quantity, despite esthill’s challenging attempts to get at least one play by our captain. To half back Kevin Kierans, passer, plunger, runner, and truly great defensive back in the center secondary slot. Neither McGee nor Loyola will forget you soon, Kev, though the remembrance may be accompanied by different emotions. To inside George Morley, who, first as assistant coach and then—after the bug bit—as player, made four green youngsters in the middle of our line a tackling and blocking barricade second to none. A steadying influence, with great qualities of leadership, a ball carrier who topped the great (we're not being sarcastic) MacFarlane in ground gains in the city final. To Happy Seasons, end, a great team player, light but a sure tackler, with a sticky pair of hands. Remember our first touch of the season? (No pun intended). LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 90 REVIEW To quarter Bill Asselin, tall, light, and none too rugged, personifying the team spirit in his brilliant display against Westhill, playing almost the full game without relief (the last half with a pair of cracked ibo. “Ме gotta get it over Father, we just gotta. Kid stuff, Bill? To end Bob Lindsay, a player of promise who was just beginning to open eyes with defensive brilliance when sickness pulled him from the line-up. To half back Johnny MacDonell, ‘‘Shifty’’, 130 pounds (all wet) of inspiration to his mates. Johnny shared the kicking duties and played brilliantly against St. Leo's and in both McGee games. To inside Jim Muir, a rookie lineman who developed into a dependable defensive player and sound blocker. To middle Tom Connors, big, game, but inexperienced. Tom improved rapidly and was hitting his peak, when a painful leg injury cramped his style in our last pair of tests. The other block-L winners, those who should be back next year to form the handsome nucleus of the 1941 edition, were: Half-back Charlie Tabio, one of our top ground-gainers, scored a beautiful touch against McGee only to see it called back on the merest technicality. Saved our bacon by his quick thinking when he dribbled a loose ball out of danger against St. Leo's. Flying wing Bob Swin- ton, who, changed from the end position to the back field, proved one of the finds of the scason, a terrific plunger and sound defensive player. Jimmy Lewis who will be the best high school punter in Montreal next year. Loves heavy defensive duty. Tried hard to persuade everybody that snap wasn't too high in the Westhill game. 'Slipped through my fingers. Gee, I'm sorry, wasn't center's fault.” That was characteristic of the team's spirit, everyone grasping at blame, and conceding credit. Center Jack McEachern, ‘‘Gafoofy’’, worked a while at the GE Geck spot towards the end of the season, his touch-down toss to his inseparable Johnny MacDonell was a beautiful piece of work. Must have a grudge against the Saints: made more tackles in the St. Leo's games than all the rest of the team together. Inside, ‘“Tiger’’ Paul Sheehan, a certain all-star choice next year, Tiger gave his best effort for brother Dan up from Boston to see us nosed out by Westhill. Now next year, Dan... Middle Eddie Meagher, a fourteen-year old senior is something to be remarked, but one with Eddie's ability is a phenom. Never saw a lineman succeed in tackling so low and so accurately; in the worst scramble Eddie comes up with the right pair of ankles in a sure grip. All star candidate for next season. Middle Paul Shaughnessy, the old strain is not diluted in the youngest clansman's veins. Specialty this year, smothering passes. Next year we'll have the two best middles in the league. End Val Chartier, more football per pound in Val than in any man on the team. Can recall a wistful youngster two years ago saying to Father Sheridan, ‘‘Gee, do you think I'll ever be big enough to make the seniors? Not only made it, but made one end of our line unpassable. Should have been an Interscholastic all star this year for that matter. Flying wing Raoul Colmenares, after working at the end spot last year came into his own this year as a beautiful blocker and fleet ball-carrier. Quarter Red Seasons, smooth passer, sharing directive duties with Bill Asselin. Never forget your winning touch against McGee,—certainly missed you in the Westhill game. Middle Frank Ryan, light but coming, sickness and injuries stopped a rapid rise which should be resumed next year. Inside Mahlon Mangan, another rookie coming into his own in '41. Half back Frank Kohler,—it's a hard life subbing for stars like Tabio and Kierans. Frank has strong offensive drive and is a first-class tackler. Half back Frank Porteous, a fine football head and grand spirit could not altogether counter-balance a lack of weight and strength. Frank's classy cleats did our converting, and well; should be in for a good season next year. End Allan McDonald, inex- perienced in September, but improving rapidly; should be first-string material next year. Center Mike Asselin, a candidate for all-star honours, 1941. Rangy and promising to be big when he fills out, Mike is a brisk, accurate passer, and heady defensive player, a natural in his position. Inside Darrell Walsh, light but compact, with a year's football behind him, Darrell should be a big help next year. Inside Ral h Farrell, at 15, one of the big men of the team, Ralph needed nothing but the experience and ee he gained this year. Should pose quite a problem for our opponents in 1941. Louis Saldana, end, first year in football, sure tackler, eager and quick to learn, should fill Emberg's or Hap Seasons’ shoes come September. Middle Howie Burrowes with only English Rugger experience, Howie proved a wind-fall, and will catch the eyes of all-star selectors next year. End Bob Fauteux, heady, fearless, built in one piece and therefore packing a punch beyond his poundage; we welcomed his return against Westhill after a mid-season ie. jd Bill Doyle; Bill has found his spot at the end position after knocking around at a varicty of jobs in the back-field. Loves heavy defensive duty. If blocked out so that he cannot make a tackle, Bill brings down his man by pushing that handsome profile into a ball carrier's ankles, as in the Westhill game. Effective, but hard on the nosc. LOYOLA Page 91 COLLEGE REVIEW October Ist, Loyola at St. Leo’s, 11-0. From the Montreal Gazette. Loyola opens Defence of High School Grid Championship with Victory.'' “A lot smaller but just as smart as last year’s squad. Loyola opened defence of its Inter- scholastic League Football Title with a victory yesterday afternoon at Westmount Park, blanking St. Leo's, 11-0. . . . Loyola's first of two unconverted touches came early in the third quarter following Lewis’ 20-yard romp round right end to St. Leo's 45. Red Seasons rifled a short forward ass through center to Tabio for a first down and then followed with a thirty yard cross-field ae to brother Harvey who picked the ball off, after two St. Leo's players had touched it, and raced over unhindered . . . The clinching major score came in the fourth quarter when little Johnny MacDonell gathered in a punt on his own 45 shifted in nicely behind his interference and raced to St. Leo's 20 . . . Seasons came out of the huddle with the pay-off pass, a running throw to Emberg over the Westmount school's goal line. Jim Lewis booted a rouge for the final point of the game. Chartier making the tackle. Paul Shaughnessy, Kev Kierans and Jack McEachern performed well for the winners . . .”’ October 12th, Loyola at McGee, 11-5. From the Montreal Standard. “Loyola Beats McGee, 11-5.” Inspired by a brilliant two-way performance by Kevin Kierans, Loyola High School fought from behind to overcome the powerful McGee Seniors 11-5 in an Interscholastic League fixture at Molson Stadium this afternoon . . . During the early part of the game McGee manifested a definite superiority. Their heavy line tossed Loyola back repeatedly, and their half backs ripped off big gains as they surged into Loyola territory to score a touch in the first period . . . Loyola began to indicate its attacking qualities midway through the second quarter as McGee began to lose their edge. Making a running forward pass, Asselin tossed a short heave to Kierans who pulled it in smartly with defenders all around him, and struggled to the McGee 15-yard line. Asselin repeated the manoeuvre to Kierans on the next down, and the N.D.G. boys had the ball on the 3-yard line. Tabio twirled through the McGee line to go over for the try, but his team was penalized ten yards, and the first scoring chance was passed up . . . Kierans took a McGee punt on the dead run and went 35 yards before he was stopped. Asselin again tossed to Kierans and this one was good with a vengeance for a major score to tie proceedings . . . The turning point came when Ed Cross xm Lewis' kick get away from him. Ed Emberg taking a long dive on the loose ball, ten yards out. Kierans made six and three on successive plunges, while Lewis provided the pay-off punch when he sneaked through center on a delayed play . . . Frankie Porteous’ convert was good from placement. . . . Kierans threw more confusion into the McGee ranks when he made a brilliant diving interception of a forward pass on the McGee 40 . . . again Kierans was on the job rushing in to intercept and racing back to the McGee 45 to snuff out their final threat . . . George Morley, Eddie Meagher, Sheehan, and Farrell were particularly strong. . . ' October 20th, St. Leo’s at Loyola, 6-17. From the Montreal Gazette. “Loyola in Triumph over St. Leo's.” ‘Wins 3rd straight to stay ahead in Senior Grid Race.” As in last week's game against McGee, Loyola went behind yesterday in the first quarter before getting into stride . . . A Loyola fumble on its 15-yard line set the Saints in position, Johnny O'Connell smashing the line for 12 on first down, leaving Swift the short jaunt to go. Brennan converted from placement . . . Led by Bob Swinton, who played his best game of the season, Loyola started to roll in the second quarter, and set the ball down on St. Leo's 20-yard line after four successive plunges by Swinton had nette d 35 yards. Brennan nullified the advance with a sparkling 40-yard run back, but Loyola soon struck back again when Charlie Tabio intercepted a forward pass at center, and Swinton followed up with a 30-yard plunge to St. Leo's 25. Kierans went 15 round right end, and successive plunges by Swinton and Johnny MacDonell moved the ball to the 3 stripe whence Swinton made the grade. Porteous converted to tie the score as the half ended . . . Long runs by Tabio and Colmenares set Billy Asselin in LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 92 REVIEW pem for Loyola's 3rd period touch, the slim young quarter shifting in nicely behind excellent locking, to go over standing up. From placement, Porteous made it two out of two . . . Disaster hit McGillis' men in possession on Loyola's 5-yard line, when Tabio raced in and booted a loose ball towards the St. Leo's line, belting it twice more before O'Connell outfooted him to fall on it on the Saints’ 20. . . O'Connell's kick was short and Kierans scampered 35 yards, MacDonell and Tabio added a few more. And Swinton lugged the ball over for his second touch of the day. October 27th, McGee at Loyola, 8-10. From the Montreal Gazette. “Loyola Seniors Rally to Defeat McGee in School Football Tilt.” “Score 10-8 victory on pair of majors in final two periods. A good little team with a star passer beat a good big team with all the plunging power yesterday afternoon on Loyola campus, and a crowd of 2,000 liked the way it was done. For the second time in two weeks Loyola came from behind to out point D'Arcy, nosing out a 10-8 decision in the last half . . . McGee opened with a rush and thoroughly out-classed the homesters for two periods compiling an 8-0 lead with a placement and touchdown both by Ed Commerford. Just before the second session ended, however, Loyola began rolling, forsaking line plays for sweeps around the end. And a fast Maroon back field went to town. Kierans, Charlie Tabio, Red Seasons and Johnny MacDonell each took the leather for long jaunts on extensions, surging from its own 25 deep in McGee territory. But the half time flag came down to end the threat . . . Loyola got back into stride midway through the third quarter when Captain Eddie Emberg snaffled a McGee fumble at center field, and runs by Red Seasons and Kierans for 15 and 27 respectively moved the Maroon team well into McGee territory. Following an exchange of kicks which pushed Loyola back considerably Kierans unleashed a 25-yard running throw to Emberg who took it over his right shoulder and sprinted another 20 yards for a touchdown, which went unconverted . . . McGee pushed Loyola back and gained possession less than ten yards out on a Loyola fumble. The smaller but hard-tackling Maroon line held, however, on three downs, an after a couple of kicking exchanges, moved up about the mid stripe with three minutes to go. And that was where Kierans’ pitching paid off again, the shifty backfielder firing a 20-yard spiral to Bill Doyle and duplicated the throw to Red Seasons on the next play. Seasons, making a spectacular catch, crossed the line for a major. ' Brother, that was a football game!!! If I lived to be a hundred and saw all the best games, I don't think I'd ever see three classier catches in the one game than those by Emberg, Doyle, and Seasons.

Loyola Blanks Catholic High to Clinch League Grid Crown. “Seasons, MacDonell Score Majors.” “The collegians sewed up the game in the first few minutes of play, with a converted touchdown, and made sure of things in the second with another unconverted try . . . The Maroons recovered a C.H.S. miscue on the latter's 25, and on the first down Swinton brought the ball to the 10. On the next play Red Seasons rapped up the major going round right end. Frank Porteous converting . . . On the next play, McEachern who started the game at snapback but was shifted to the half line, faded back a couple of steps, skipped about five yards to his right, and then veritably rifled a flat forward pass into SEN arms on the 5-yard stripe. MacDonell didn't go the rest of the way with his eyes closed, but he could have. November 9th, Loyola at Catholic High, 5-0.

' Now what can we say about this Westhill Loyola та We had injuries, so had Westhill, but, though Hall is a better footballer than Red Seasons, it’s doubtful if Westhill, with a smart replacement like Alf Harvey, missed Hall as much as we missed Red. Bill Asselin had to handle the quarter spot without relief, a tough assignment for a 125-pound youngster, against the Westhill power-house on a snow covered field. Oh yes,—that field. Sure, it was snowy for Westhill too, but without Alan Hall Westhill had to rely on power drives through the line. All season our play was built on fast breaking end plays, and forward per à Рау of that kind is all but impossible on such a field. At that, one of our pass plays saw Westhill buffaloed, our receivers in the clear for long gains or touchdowns, but either the snow covered ball would go away, or else frozen fingers couldn't hold it. As I see it, Westhill won the game and deserved it on the day's play, because of an edge in a single point, albeit a mighty important point. T an Lewis can kick punts with Alf Harvey or Bob MacFarlane any day of the week, including Friday the Thirteenth,—given equal protection. There lay the difference, our kick formation was unsteady throughout, bending under the Westhill drive. Their kick formation was rock bound. That weakness of ours not only worried the kicker, it worried the whole team on unt plays. It caused Jack McEachern's bad toss. It robbed Jimmy Lewis of two rouges which would Lans treasure trove in such a game, when in his hurry to get kicks off he saw the greasy ball slide off his foot. Well, that's the way we see it. November 16th, Loyola vs. Westhill, 0-2. From the Montreal Gazette. “‘Westhill Retains City High School Football Championship.” “Ball Goes Behind Loyola Line Where Jim Lewis is Tackled for Pay-Off Points.” “It can't be said Westhill backed into victory at Molson Stadium Saturday afternoon, but it can be said Loyola backed into defeat. For it was a bad snap in the third quarter that broke Ls the battle between two perfectly matched teams; a snap that saw Loyola just nosed out by esthill for the second straight year, the Red and Grey taking last season’s final by a 4-1 count. The critical play occurred well on in the third heat, after Westhill had turned it on, and driven the Maroon and Green club back to its fifteen yard line. On the third down bang went the ball game when Jack McEachern, doing the upside down pitching, lost his control and whistled a wild pass over his goal line. Lewis scampered back to retrieve the oval, but couldn't do anything else but ground it two yards behind the line as a swarm of Westhill tacklers broke through and pushed his face in the snow. It was a tough break for McEachern as well as for Loyola for the stocky youngster, still eligible for Junior play, has played a bang-up game all season, earning a place on the Gazette's all-star team. There's always a goat in a game like that anyway, and he unluckily was it with that one bad throw . . . It undoubtedly was the tightest game of the year, probably of the last two or three years, as the teams delighted close to 3,000 fans with smart ball handling in a great exhibition of their wide open rules.” That's really all there is to report. Captain Keith Ellson, a great sport and a grand footballer, playing despite severe injuries provided the inspiration which pulled Westhill out of two tough spots in the first half. Alf Harvey, filling in for the injured Hall, stole the lime-light with a great two-way performance, while the steady MacFarlane, though held to small gains, was a power in a defensive way and knocked our punt formation about pretty badly. For the challengers the veterans Eddie Emberg, George Morley, and Kev Kierans never looked better. Brother Ambrose, McGee football mentor, called Eddie's game the greatest he had ever seen an end play. George plunged for gains which shaded MacFarlane’s,—though burly Bob was considered tops in high school circles— and his defensive play was strong throughout despite a leg injury occurring in the third stanza. Kev was a stand out, both ways in every department. Tiger Зена turned in his best effort of the year, doing some sterling ball-carrying. Bill Asselin, over-worked and dead with fatigue, showed just how far spirit can drive one after the body is through. Mike Asselin looked like a veteran, steady, cool, heads-up defensively, passing the ball with perfect accuracy, despite the worst ground conditions and a freezing temperature. Watch Mike next year; he grew into a senior star in that one battle. But why single out individuals?

HIGEBLIGHTS OF THE SEASON The Three Best Plays of the Year: Eddie Emberg's catch of that touchdown pass in the second McGee game. Bill Doyle's reception in the same game, a reception which set the stage for the winning touch- down. Even if Bill had dropped it, it should have been ruled completed, for Bill's legs were clipped from under him the moment Before he snared the ball. Still wondering how he held onto it. A mouse-trap plunge by Morley in the Westhill game which carried us—on first down—from Westhill’s 20 to the 11. A perfect piece of football mechanics, the right middle pulled out, MacFarlane came through scenting a kill, Bob Swinton sent him on his back ten feet from the play, and George went through a hole big enough for a Í s Then the play was called back, because the left end who had no essential role in the play was off-side by two feet. The game was lost right there. The Worst Play of the Year: The off-side mentioned above. The most humorous incidents of the campaign: Trainer Bill O'Brien phoning home to McGee headquarters at half time of the second McGee game. Brother, it's in the bag, 8-0 at half time for McGee. Just a question how high a score we'll run up.” Bob MacFarlane in our dressing room after the Westhill game. ‘‘Tough break, fellows. The Lord must have been on our side today. Our team had only been to Mass and Communion that morning. Well, maybe He was, at that. Could be, could be. The team we like best to play against: The Red and Grey of Westhill. Great sports. The team that still scores the most points against us: The Double Blue of McGee, dad burn it. The most satisfying game of the season: The second McGee game, because we took them coming from behind, and in the same way they whipped us in 1939. LOYOLA Page 101 COLLEGE REVIEW The most believe-it-or-not fact about our team: Here’s how the wing-line lined up pretty frequently on the right side. Jack McEachern snap, aged 15, Ralph Farrell inside 15, Eddie Meagher middle 14, Val Chartier end, 16. The left side was often like this. Paul Sheehan inside 16, Paul Shaughnessy middle 16, Bob Fauteux end 17. Average age 15.6. Not bad for senior company. Watch them roll in 1941. The following Loyola men rated recognition on local all-star selections: The Gazette's Interscholastic League Team: Kev Kierans at half, Eddie Emberg at end, George Morley at inside, and Jack McEachern at the snap spot. The Standard’s All-Montreal High Squad: Kev Kierans at half, Eddie Emberg at end, George Morley at inside, and Red Seasons calling the plays. y EEF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL As AN accomplished thespian, a versatile athlete and a successful coach, Mark McKeown now becomes an Alumnus. Another page may record the long list of Mark’s various activities, but here belongs an expression of deep appreciation for the many splendid services he has rendered to our Junior Football Teams. Coach for the past two seasons, Mark indirectly contributed much to help our Senior High Warriors to their many victories. It was he who first drilled and taught the fundamentals of the ame to the majority of our Catholic League ر зоне Only a fickle fate deprived Mark of repeating Fis triumphant campaign of the previous football season. A petty decision by an official, viz., “а person not the Captain talking out of turn'' cost our орына coach the Interscholastic Loop title. The sparkling efficient coordination of the team, the variety of their plays and the strong Gg formations which dazzled spectators are all a tribute to Mark's ingenuity. Future Junior Warriors will miss Mark’s guidance because Mark has proven himself a real leader. Should Coach McKeown ever have the opportunity of devoting time to pana coaching—one thing is certain—Mark will always be welcome back to the task that he has handled so well. All his ‘‘blitzmen’’ join in congratulating him on his scholastic attainments. They wish him the very best of good luck in the path of life that he may choose to follow. Now this narrator will content himself with simply setting down the account of last autumn's battles. Actions always speak louder than words. The record of the Junior Team is Mark's very best praise. ` Defending the Junior City Football Championship, Mark McKeown with Paul Limoges as his line coach started off the league schedule with an 11-5 win over D'Arcy McGee. Both teams displayed a brilliant passing attack plns plenty of speed afoot. The Double Blue held command throughout the first half, leading 5-0 on Macera’s plunge for a touchdown late in the second quarter. In the third period the Maroon clad Warriors got their air attack functioning and took the lead 6-5 before this session closed. Johnny Wickham took Ed. Langan's toss to race twenty yards for a major. Langan then threw to McEachern on a sleeper play for the extra point. Loyola's clinching touchdown came in the last frame when Eddie Meagher scooped up the ball after a McGee kick was blocked and charged some thirty yards before being hauled down. Again the Langan to McEachern 'sleeper specialty' connected and the ball game was safely tucked away. The attempted convert failed. The supporters were banking heavily upon Captain Eddie Langan and his brother Freddie, both of whom are halves, on Cliff Malone clever quarterback, on Joe Colme- nares fleet flying wing and Jack O'Neill a promising middle and, believe me, they weren't disappointed. Catholic High was our Juniors' next opponents and the Black and White Squad emerged from the fray as the team to beat. Applying a white-wash to a Loyola team in their own baliwick is no mean feat and the Durocher street boys did just that. These two different styles of play may be con- sidered as a summary of the whole game. Loyola's speed around the ends and Catholic High's power through the line made a very interesting display. t was near the end of the second quarter that the strategy of the winners in hammering the Maroon line bore fruit. Coleman, Moore and Lilley, with an occasional quarterback sneak on the part of Gelineau had brought the ball to the Loyola eight-yard mark. On the next play Lilley hit the jack-pot when he pranced around the short end for the only score of the day. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 102 REVIEW However, this did not cause the Westend boys to roll over and play dead. They started to work in earnest and here again the Black and White front wall made the difference. In the third canto, our McKeown men ме чш. г after their half-time rest made an ‘‘all out effort’’ that just failed of reaching pay dirt. In fact before the Catholic igh team knew that the ball game was resumed, they found that the pigskin rested on their one-yard line. A mighty punt far over the safety man’s head saved the day as it rolled to the loser's thirty-five yard line. renzied attempts to score by our Juniors were spoiled by timely interception of Gelineau and Rheaume. Just before the game ended Wickham nailed Coleman on his one-yard line. There one of the most closely fought battles of the campaign ended. McKeown had much faster backs and made better use of interference. Catholic High had the better line, superior plunging and a big edge on the kicking. S their third pue of the season, our boys hopped on the band-wagon again when they mopped up Daniel O'Connell 22-0. A touch was scored in every quarter to subdue the Irish Fighters with Ea. Langan, Joe Colmenares, Cliff Malone and Fred Langan going over in order. Aside from counting one major on a twenty-yard end run, Fred Langan fired passes for two others to gain the honors of the day. Jack O'Neill and Jimmy O'Connor were other standouts for McKeown. In the return game against McGee, the Maroon and White showed that once again they were contenders for the City Championship. This fixture was clinched with a pair of second quarter touch- downs with Eddie Langan Bering the first and Jim O'Connor plunging over for the second. Bowles took Dohn's forward pass for McGee's five points in the final heat. Everything depended upon the outcome of the fifth league game when Loyola met C.H.S. in their return contest which decided the Interscholastic Loop title holder. Glen Brown's youngsters drove over for a converted major just three minutes after the struggle got underway and that was just about enough to tuck the laurels away. Our only score was made on a Langan to Langan combination, Freddie going back twenty yards to toss a pass into the arms of his brother Eddie for a try. The convert failed. Two more evenl matched teams couldn't be found. For the most part the battle see-sawed up and down the field e the same manner as it did when the teams first met. In the last quarter Loyola held complete command of the situation but too many forward passes and an untimely petty penalty spelled defeat. However, two championship teams battled it out for the honors and it can be truly said that Champions lost to Champions. These youngsters are out to provide some very interesting football next autumn and they are already keenly looking forward to settling the issue once and for all. One mg certain and that is that the material which will graduate to senior ranks next promises that the high standards of football seen on our Campus will be upheld in the best traditional fashion. The final game against Daniel O'Connell was awarded our men by default. Here is the line-up and the heroes of a mighty successful campaign :— Langan, E. Flying Wing Bégin Langan, F. Half Molina, A.

Major Brennan, '36, guided the destinies of our Varsity. Mr. E. Sheridan, S.J., '32, manoeuvred the Senior High Team to the top of the Catholic League. Mark McKeown, '41, had our champion Juniors playing champions. Our youngest squad, all boys under fifteen, following true to form, were coached by Robert Brodrick, 44 This was the first time that Loyola had a Bantam team in league competition. The youngsters under the tutelage of their adept coach proved that they were ready for more serious football by winning the ag Championship. Before summarizing the accounts of our pigmy warriors—a word about their coach. Bob Brodrick won the medal for the most truly representative Loyola student at his High School graduation in 1939. Besides being a versatile athlete starring on our varsity pigskin squads and a hockey player who ranks with the best of College defencemen, Bob is President of Sophomore, an honor student, a fine debater and one of the outstanding men in our College Orchestra and Glee Club. No wonder then the boys a Pare their coach. Only a serious pre-season shoulder injury kept Bob from playing on the Varsity again last season. We can be certain that, had he played, results might have been different. However, Bob's football activity was far from curtailed. Immediately he found himself surrounded by fifty or more boys who were determined to learn the game from the ground up. The Bantam City Championship on display in the Athletic Office shows just how successful a teacher of fundamentals Bob was. The Ahlen Association through this medium expresses to Bob its most sincere appreciation. Displaying a brilliant offensive and a stonewall defensive, Brodrick’s Bantams opened their Football schedule with a smashing 29-0 victory over Catholic High. As already intimated, this was the first game that a Bantam team representing Loyola in Official League competition played, but one would have thought that they were seasoned veterans. Loyola opened their scoring in the first minute of the game when McNamara plunged for a major, after the versatile Owen Maloney had carried the ball to the C.H.S. five-yard line. This touch was converted by Ron Sutherland on a pass from Bussière. In the second quarter McNamara again crossed the line for his second touchdown. Bussière and Sutherland again combined to make the convert good. The scoring in the first half ended when Loyola kicked the ball over the Black and White goal line, and Johnny Meagher made his first of a long list of beautiful tackles. The half closed with Loyola leading by the score of 13-0. There was no scoring in the third quarter although Catholic High threatened several times. The high light of the game came when Loyola held their opponents for three downs on their one- yard line. Soon the powerful Maroon Squad was rolling again. During the last quarter they came through with three more touchdowns. One of these was converted. Bussière was first to hit pay dirt in this frame when he galloped around the end for thirty yards. Cliff Malone next tallied when he ran fifty yards aided by some beautiful interference. This was converted on Maloney's pass. But the Loyola blitzmen were not yet finished for on the last play of the game, Bussière triple threat back- fielder for his second try of the day carried the pigskin over. Although completely outplayed throughout the game the C.H.S. squad showed great spirit in going down to defeat. Among the best for Catholic High was been. Howie Morenz, jr. T Loyola a smooth working backfield, made up of Maloney, Bussiére and McNamara and the two Sutherland brothers, was particularly impressive. The playing of Melangon, Callaghan and Saldana along the чын also outstanding. Yes sir, after the first contest, the youngsters shaped up as real title con- tenders. St. Leo’s was the Bantams next victim. Accurate and timely passing on the part of Don Bussiére was largely responsible for Loyola High's 13-0 victory. Loyola were slow in scoring but once underway were hard to stop. They scored a safety touch when Johnny Meagher tossed Seeney back over his own line. Then in the second quarter Bob Sutherland pulled a 30-yard pass from Bussiére out of the air and continued to jaunt another 20 yards for a touchdown. It went unconverted. Brodrick's strategy then produced a number of smart plays as his team rolled St. Leo's back in the second half. Don Bussiére eventually plunged from the one-yard line and later threw another forward pass to Ron Sutherland for the convert. Following in the арт of the senior team the Bantams went on to garner their third straight win at the expense of Daniel O'Connell 7-0. The Maroon and White spond the scoring in the second LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 104 REVIEW uarter when Don Bussiére tallied a rouge. The second session went scoreless. But in the third frame Poelle caught Monroe behind his Sei: for another point. Before the third period closed, Loyola chalked up an unconverted touchdown with Captain Don Bussière rifling a pass to Sutherland who went over. The play was set up by Facella who intercepted an O'Connell pass and brought the ball to the enemy 15-yard line. Again led by their Captain ‘‘Donnie’’ Bussière, Loyola Bantams came from behind in their return game with Catholic High to gain the leadership in the Catholic Loop. The Black and White Squad took a 6-0 lead on a first quarter single and Art. Voyame's touch in the second canto. On the kickoff following Voyame's major, however, Bussiére took the ball on his twenty-five and raced eighty-five yards for a touchdown, putting the Maroon team back in the running. Before the quarter ended, Donnie cut loose again for his second major. Bussiére went over in the third quarter, plunging all the way from the twenty-yard line. In the sixth and final league game played by the Bantams they won the City title. The tilt was layed in Westmount Park on a muddy field, and both teams had Bee to a scoreless tie when the alf way mark was reached. In the third quarter, Bussière started the fireworks when he booted a rouge and then in the last quarter added to his reputation in the scoring records by running seventy- five yards behind good interference for a major. Emblem, Melangon and McNamara were again outstanding in this crucial game. Don Bussiére alone scored thirty-nine points for his team, while only eleven points were tallied against the Brodrick Broncos.

There is nothing like the autumn sun and brisk breezes to stir rabid foot- ballers to peregrinate the pigskin way. So the competing classes were only too eager to step onto the sward uis d rough-shod over all opponents, whoe'er they be. The schedule, then, needed mere posting to see the contending huskies off to the fray. However, ardent spirits were not to enjoy com- plete satisfaction. Nor is any human hand to blame for the seeming fiasco. For it was the elements LOYOLA Page 105 COLLEGE REVIEW and other extracurricular doings, that frustrated the running off of the entire schedule. Yet a good deal of exciting football was had before the lull in action came. In the senior division n was close, with victories and defeats see-sawing in regular order. The play of the Senior High classes, however, was a bit shaded by that of their hine of a lesser year. And as the schedule drew to a close the contesting paired down to a Third High rivalry. The triple-threat activities of C. Halpin and the stalwart toe-work of L. Larrabure kept the banner fused for Third High B. In the season's opening game these two marched their team to an easy win over the warriors of Fourth High A. After F. Bedford had given his Senior High mates the lead with a pass interception and an unmolested ten-yard run to a major score, the Halpin lads reta- liated quickly to take command of the lead, when Captain Charley himself scored twice on sweeping runs of sixty and thirty yards respectively. Before the last whistle sounded the same Halpin was again to loom conspicuous, as he connected with D. Porteous and J. Corcoran by the aerial route for another pair of touchdowns. F. Bedford, who had opened the afternoon's scoring, was also to con- clude the touchdown-getting with a twenty-yard race to a score in the waning minutes of play. The aforementioned Latus bolstered Third High B's major scores by registering two extra points, raising his team's already comfortable lead to an eleven-point margin over their opponents. The final score: Тҥкь Ніон B-22— Fourra Hicu А-11 The gridmen of Senior High B were next to fall victims before the victorious onslaught of the Third High B team. But the former were to prove themselves stubborn losers, before they succumbed to a nine to five score. The Senior High men got off to a flying start with a downfield march to a five-point score, sparked by the all-around play of Frank Davis and the sharp-shooting of passer Bossy. However, the Third High men were not long in equalling the score, and later to forge ahead with a Larrabure boot for a one-point lead. Shortly afterwards Larrabure assured victory to his mates by a stellar kick from the field of thirty-five yards. Final score: THIRD Нон B-9——Fourts Hicu B-5 After losing their opening game, Third High A played a championship brand of ball to turn back their unbeaten class colleagues. While his teammates threw back every offensive endeavor of the Third High B squad, Driscoll's smart quarter backing and superb passing complemented that unique defensive feat, to humble the championship-headed B team. The Driscollmen spaced their twin touchdown scores, by crossing the wide line stripe once in each period. The first score came after the Junior Class B men attempted in vain to penetrate the enemy territory the required distance for the five-point reward. A pass, Driscoll to Donovan, hit the bull's eye, subsequent to which receiver Donovan scampered the remaining ten yards for the major. Payette was successful with a drop-kick to make the count six to nothing. The second period play was just a continuation of the previous period's two bucks and a kick procedure. But before the period closed, the A men definitely convinced their class fellows, that they had a shade the better of the afternoon's play; for the A's pushed far enough toward the touch- down line to enable Driscoll to jn smartly to Payette, who had but a yard to advance for the score. The convert attempt failed, and the game ended. Тнівр Нісн A-11 THIRD Нон B-0 This setback of Third High В prevented their undisputed claim to the sectional championship. Premature winter intervened before the deciding game could be played. 4 4 4 In the Junior division the contesting was more one-sided. The Second High teams proved too strong for their younger classmen, who none the less showed certain promise for future battling. First High A defeated their first year comrades, to register their lone win in three encounters. Both the yearling squads were steam-rolled by their bigger schoolmen, who were destined to fight it out together for the division supremacy. The two Second High teams were undefeat ed when they faced each other in the final game of the year—the contest that was to see the B team € the sectional champions of 1940. The game was a tense one from the opening whistle. Neither team succeeded in crashing the score column in the initial period. The passing of 2A's Walsh and the B men's Tom Cox, though sharp, could not penetrate the opposing defences, which consistently prevented intended receivers LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 106 REVIEW from telling grasps of the oft whirling pigskin. However, halfway through the second period Second High B chalked up a five-point score. Second High A's pass-defence wilted just opportunely enough to allow a Cox-to-Gallagher aerial combination to click for the lone touchdown score of this closely fought struggle. Undaunted, Second High A started to move goalward once they had obtained pos- session of he ball. Larry Walsh rifled passes to every corner, and his shots found receivers often enough to place the ball within a few yards of the coveted touchdown stripe. It looked like a sure bet, too, that this last minute forward surge of the A team was to result in the tieing marker. The opposition purposed otherwise. The Second High B defence stiffened. In three attempts passer Walsh failed to communicate with any of the prospective receivers. The game ended after a few more plays with Second High B the 1940 Junior Division Champs. The score: SECOND Нон B-5——Srconp Hic А-0 y y SENIOR HIGH $CHOOL HOCKEY oo the 1940-41 edition of the Loyola Se- nior High Hockey team did not meet with overwhelming success, nevertheless it proved that it pos- sessed that ever present characteristic of all Loyola teams . . . a dogged, fighting spirit. Always playing against heavier opposition, the Maroon and White squad showed that size is no indication of ability. When the call went out in early December for prospective members of the team, about twenty men put in an e puse Hopes were high that in her first appearance in league competition in two years the Loyola team would bom up the league. Under the ee guidance of Mr. Sheridan, S.J., the squad practised faithfully until the first game on the schedule. The opening game took place at the Verdun Auditorium, home of the D’Arcy McGee team, on January 8th. From the Montreal Daily Star of January 11, 1941. “D'Arcy McGee, titleholders in the Catholic = = School Senior Hockey League for the past three years, failed to get into the win column in the league's 1941 opener at Verdun Audi- torium on Saturday and had to share the spoils at 4-4 with a fighting Loyola team. The game was somewhat ragged for most of the game as both teams found it diical to get into the swing of things. eier? Vincelli was the spark of the Double Blue, scoring two of his team’s goals un- assisted, and getting help from Phil Neville on two others to counter all four. Red ' Seasons and Eddie Emberg shared the Loyola spoils. Emberg tallied two, aided on another, and Seasons duplicated the feat. Going into the second period Loyola held a 2-1 edge but Vincelli's goal evened the count. Pressure was applied by the Maroonsters and a rush by Emberg, Corcoran and Seasons ended successfully. Vincelli did some smart work to grab two fast goals. Seasons brought about the deadlock three minutes before game time on a solo effort. Score: MCGEE 4——LovoraA 4 The Catholic High squad was next on the list for the Maroon and White team. Their first meeting took place on January 19th at the Loyola Stadium. On a goal by Captain Eddie Emberg the Loyola men chalked up their first League win. From the Montreal Daily Star of January 20, 1941. “Loyola College turned back C.H.S. yesterday at the Loyola Stadium і a Catholic School League game. Loyola took advantage of a penalty to C.H.S. in the final minute of the first period to chalk up their 1-0 victory. Eddie Emberg tallied the lone goal when he took Seasons’ pass in front of the C.H.S. nets. Loyola is unbeaten so far this season. Alary had no chance on the goal and but for the one tally both netminders, Alary for C.H.S. and Chartier for Loyola turned in flawless netminding.”’ Score: CATHOLIC Нон 0——Lovora 1 Page 107 Loyola College Review í i | { | FIELD DAY, 1941 Pat Devaux making a new mile record.

LOYOLA Page 111 COLLEGE REVIEW Just three days later these same two teams met this time at the Montreal Forum. In a closely contested game C.H.S. managed to avenge the defeat handed them by the Maroon team a few days before. From the Montreal Herald of January 23, 1941. “In a bitterly contested battle the Black and White team of Catholic High managed to emerge with a 3-1 victory over the Loyola team yesterday at the Forum. Marty Madore and George Morley scored in the first period to make things even, but C.H.S. went ahead after three minutes of KS had passed in the second frame on a goal by Bernie Lauzon. Twelve minutes later Andy Perron sewed up the game for the Black and White on a solo effort. Particularly outstanding was the great goaling on the part of the two netminders, Chartier and Alary.”’ Score: C.H.S. 3——Loyota 1 Then the Maroon and White continued their supremacy over the Double Blue of McGee by defeating them on home ice. Val Chartier scored his second shutout of the season while his mates managed to thrust three goals past Muir in the McGee nets. From the Montreal Herald of January 27, 1941. ‘Val Chartier stopped a hard shot puck with his head in pre-game warm up that knocked him out cold and then came back to turn in a sensational netminding chore as the Maroon team blanked D'Arcy McGee 3-0 at Loyola Stadium yesterday. It was Chartier's second shutout in his four games this year—no mean record in any man's hockey—and are the only zeros chalked up in the Catholic School Loop this season. e Loyolans let loose shortly after the second stanza opened, however, taking advantage of a penalty to McGee's Mulvanie. Red Seasons was the opportunist beating Muir on a corner drive from the penalty shot line. The Maroon rushes finally paid just after the thirteen minute mark. MacDonald was the marksman, Corcoran and Gallagher figuring in the assist column. Kevin Kierans topped off the proceedings with the game's final counter. He took the puck at his own blue line to weave through the whole Mc team, beating Muir with a drive that bulged the twine in the upper corner. Score: MCGEE 0——Loyo ta 3 Two weeks later McGee and Loyola again met, this time at the Verdun Auditorium. Once again Loyola emerged victors as Eddie Emberg scored the winner on a pass from Seasons. From the Montreal Gazette of February 10, 1941. “A smooth skating left win рор: the necessary scoring punch for Loyola to turn aside McGee 2-1 saturday at Verdun Auditorium and to extend its lead in the Interscholastic Hockey League Senior Section to three p Morley, Loyola defenceman was sent to the cooler early in the first period, and while shorthanded his team scored on a sustained power play into McGee territory. Dan Porteous rifled home a close-in shot that beat Muir. Another Ity, this time to Kierans, backfired on McGee as Emberg tallied a neat marker on a pass om Seasons to put Loyola out of reach for the rest of the game. McGee gambled on five man rushes and this proved fruitful when Nolan scored early in the second period. Score: MCGEE 1——Loyota 2 Then Catholic High and Loyola met again on Forum ice once more the Black and White team were victorious. Skating like demons and passing which could not have been better accounted for the 9-2 victory. From the Montreal Gazette of February 11, 1941. “A revitalized Catholic High sextet continued its rapid rise to the top of the Interscholastic Senior Hockey League yesterday at the Forum in convincing fashion. Playing the league-leading Loyola, the Black and White went on a scoring jamboree in the second period, piled up a brilliant 9-2 victory and left themselves one point out of first place. Seasons and Emberg scored the only Loyola markers one in each period. Bernie Lauzon scored four goals, Perron three and Madore two to account for all the C.H.S. goals Score: C.H.S. 9——Lovora 2 LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 112 REVIEW Barely a week later Loyola met Catholic High again in a game which would practically decide the League Championship. Those who witnessed the contest declared it the best d the season. Al- though the Maroon and White came out of the battle on the disappointing end of a 2-1 count, they showed the Catholic men, nevertheless, that a good little team is almost as good as a good big team. From the Montreal Star of February 19, 1941. “Catholic High gained the Interscholastic title yesterday afternoon at Loyola by defeating the Collegians 2-1 on goals by Andy Perron. He scored his first goal after fifteen seconds of play in the first period and counted the winner at 7.20 of the second frame. Captain Eddie Emberg registered the lone Loyola marker on a beautiful play with Red Seasons at 1.20 of the second period. The teams battled tooth and nail throughout the game and the issue was only decided on breaks.” Score: C.H.S. 2——LovoraA 1 On February 28th the team brought its current nee campaign to an end at the Annual Xavier Арена Sports Night. The game was the highlight of the evening’s entertainment, and і it cGee and Loyola battled to a 5-5 draw. From the Montreal Star of March 1, 1941. D'Arcy McGee and Loyola High School teams brought their respective campaigns to an end last night at the Forum playing to a 5-5 tie. The game was the bus on the Xavier Apostolate Sports Night card. All the Loyola goals were evenly distributed with each of the following scoring one: McDonald, Corcoran, Morley, D. Porteous and Seasons. Laberge scored twice for McGee while Mulvanie, Neville and Bowles counted the others Score: MCGEE 5——Loyo a 5 In addition to eight league games, the squad played in ten exhibition games winning five and losing five. Westhill, Montreal West, Jacques Cartier, Oxford Royals, N.D.G. Royals and the Loyola Alumni were some of the teams played against. It is only fitting that tribute be paid to those who have donned their skates for the last time for Loyola High School. To Eddie Emberg, our Captain, who displayed that same capacity for leadership which was so manifest on the football team. yola High School has lost a truly great athlete and gentleman in Eddie, and it is Ve that the High School’s loss is the College’s gain. To George Morley, unsung hero of practically every game and the mainstay of the defence; to Kevin Kierans, who always turned in a magnificent game and whose fighting spirit kept the team on its toes; and to John Martin, our utility forward, whose dogged playing had the enemy in a state of confusion. To all these men we bid a sad farewell. Tribute must also be paid to those who played for the team this season and are expected to return to the line up when 1942 arrives. To Val Chartier, our sensational goalie whose genuine abili cannot be praised sufficiently; to Red Seasons, always on the spot when winning goals were nosed: to Dan Porteous, right winger on the first line whose back checking surprised all; to Allan McDonald, Steve Corcoran and Gerry Gallagher our RED LINE” whose magnificent defensive work kept the enemy at bay; and to our Kid Line of Frank Porteous, Charlie Halpin and Bill Doyle the three little men who did the work of people twice their size. All these gentlemen we salute. And so “‘finis’’ is written to the 1941 Senior High Hockey team. In the eyes of some this past season may seem to have been a dismal failure, but to those who know and appreciate hockey teams, 41 is a victory. It is a victory because the team which represented Loyola was possibly the smallest and most inexperienced ever to don the Maroon and White. But despite all odds, great as they were, this team always came out smiling confident that they had done their school and themselves justice although the score might have stood in favour of their rivals. And, after all, what more can we ask of a team than that they give their all? LOYOLA Page 113 COLLEGE REVIEW LOYOLA JUNIOR HOCKEY TEAM i e end of the Rugby season for the Juniors was not an happy one. They saw the championship snatched from them in a fatal final game that might have given the trophy to either side. The prospects of the coming hockey campaign were not v bright. Few of last year's Warriors would be in Junior company this year. The eligible Bantams graduating to Junior ranks were few and far between. The first few workouts confirmed these mis- givings. Hockey prospects in general were anything but encouraging. The preliminary practices at the Lachine Arena, however, showed that the youngsters had plenty of spirit and fight. They were determined to inscribe Loyola's name on the Junior Trophy. The development of the team was slow but steady. Good team play and careful attention to each position with plenty of accurate passing was to be the foundation of a contender. A somewhat mediocre team was moulded into a very strong contender for the title. Daniel O'Connell had suffered eatly from graduation; McGee was definitely on the weak side. Loyola, C.H.S. and St. Leo's decided- y proved to be the class of the league with the latter offering the necessary punch in the play-off series to cop the title, but only after a three-cornered tie between Loyola, C.H.S. and St. Leo's. In the beginning Loyola had little or no difficulty. McGee was the first victim and suffered to the tune of а 9-2 from a fierce Loyola attack. ‘‘Loyola Raps McGee 9-2. Brilliant team work was the highlight of the game played under ideal conditions. D.O.C., our next victim, suffered a somewhat similar fate when they bowed to the Loyola Juniors by the score of 7-1. ''Malone is star as Loyola Six beats O'Connell. Conditions were definitely poor, but Loyola showed her adaptability by dis- playing a brand of hockey that could spell only victory on a rather poor ice surface. The real test was the opposition offered by C.H.S. at the Forum. Al. Brown, the mainstay of the Loyola rearguard, was confined to the sidelines with an eye injury. Bantam Ron Sutherland was called upon to fill the rather large gap between the posts. Fred. Langan was confined to his bed a few days previous to the battle and on the day of the game had to smuggle his stuff out of the house and flee for the Forum only to find his sister an ardent supporter of the Juniors. Trailing for the greater part of the game Loyola again showed the brilliance of her pass attack in the final period by scoring the tieing and winning goal. Sutherland's steady and cool performance was an inspiration to the rest of the Juniors. The work of defencemen Wickham, Meagher, and McEachern was outstanding. The forwards gave Ron the maximum amount of protection with the result that Loyola skated off the ice with a 4-3 victory after O'Neill, Kohler, and Malone had dented the twine in quick succession in the second period. It is no easy task to topple St. Leo's on their ice. We failed to return a favorable verdict in three years, Loyola had to stand the test. Loyola defeats St. Leo's 4-2. It was a ragged affair with no brilliant display of hockey in any period. After ending the first period with a 1-1 tie, Loyola came from behind in the last ten minutes of the second period to run in three goals, and walk off with a 4-2 victory, and incidentally administer to St. Leo's their first defeat in three years on their home ice. The following game with McGee was uneventual ‘Loyola beats McGee 4-2 for fifth straight victory.” D.O.C. offered no opposition in the next game except an opportunity for the Loyola snipers to better their scoring averages which they managed to do fairly well to the tune of a 9-0. Loyola swamp Daniel O'Connell in school tilt 9-0.” Six straight victories without a defeat is something to boast about. Sufficient any other year to win the title. The champions the year before managed it with but eleven points but competition was much closer then and the league was well enn i but this year three teams enjoyed the spotlight with Loyola up to this point demanding the greater part for herself. But strange things happen in the arena of sports and it seems that Loyola was to become the victim of these strange things. We had the breaks in the beginning and they seemed to shower us, but the bad breaks seemed to be equally gregarious. Prosperity was too much for the Juniors. Condi- tion waned. Carelessness set in and the would-be champions received their setback when they realized that they were on the wrong end of a 6-3 score. C.H.S. Juniors win 6-3, Lilley scores three in beating Loyola.’’ C.H.S. immediately took a contending position for league honours. It seemed that Loyola prosperity was at an end. They were not the same team that only a week or so before had downed this same aggregation. This was the turning point in their string of victories and only once did that old form raise its head. The severest blow, however, was yet to come. One game remained to be layed, even a tie would give us the coveted title. But St. Leo’s also had a little avenging to do and = their own good they picked the right time and nosed out Loyola in the final game of the league to create a three-cornered tie for league leadership. It was a ragged affair. Loyola were disorganized. They seemed to have forgotten everything they had learned, someone went so far as to say that they LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 114 REVIEW had forgotten how to skate or else they never really learned how. St. Leo's by cautious and careful play walked off with a 2-1 victory and another chance at the title. Loyola had slipped from their old form and only once in the next four games did they display any of that old brilliance that made them look like a real championship squad at the beginning of the season. The first game of the play-off series was of no particular interest except for the fact that Loyola carried a two goal deficit into the second game. Gendron replaced Brown in the Loyola nets, but a high fever is not exactly what tends to good goal keeping with the result that Loyola found herself at the short end of a 5-3 score. ‘‘C.H.S win over Loyola by 5-3, take lead in start of Interscholastic hockey semi-finals.’ Facing a two-goal deficit Loyola were definitely the underdogs in the second game of this series. C.H.S. took the series for granted and only appeared at Loyola to fill in the second game of the series. Facing a two-goal deficit was like taking on the Montreal Royals for the Juniors. Ten seconds after the start of the game O'Connor placed the puck on the end of O'Neill's stick and Jack did the rest. But a few minutes later C.H.S. tied it up and that is how the period ended with both teams sharing the play. Thirteen scoreless minutes of the second period did not raise the hopes of the Loyola cause, but then something happened and in the next minute and a half, F. Langan, O'Neill, and Kohler each dented the twine to put our Juniors ahead on the series. But again C.H.S. applied the prm and tied things up all around again. Fifteen seconds later, E. Langan came through with the goal that was to decide the ame Loyola Tops C.H.S. 5-2. From then on C.H.S. were not even in the game. Coleman in C.H.S. nets was really rattled for the first time in his career. We doubt if a goal-keeper has ever been hit with quite so much rubber in so short a time in annals of hockey history. Loyola spark certainly flared up in this game, but as it cooled it went out and was never to be rekindled in the final play-off games. A different team entirely seemed to take part in the St. Leo's series. We had gone stale and lost most of the old fight. The semi-finals both went to our heads and robbed us of all our reserve strength. Malone was Sr ми with a Si: injury which interfered with his general good play. The Langan twins were ailing. Kohler, O'Neill and company were definitely stale. O'Connor was the only one to show any consistent life and ability in the final two games. Loyola let the first game slip through her fingers by her own carelessness. Two minutes remained in the game with the score 3-2 in our favour then in ten seconds St. Leo’s scored the tieing goal and ten seconds later they rammed in the winner to carry off the honours in the first game. “St. Leo's Juniors beat Loyola 4-3. In the second game we had to gamble a p deal and take quite a few chances while St. Leo's could play a very cautious and close game. We were caught short on three different occasions and each time cost us a goal. The Juniors were definitely off and played their poorest hockey of their career. Championship play was too much for them. It was a little too strenuous for their carefree natures. It is alright to win if it is not too inconvenient, but condition and so forth were a little too exacting so another campaign ended disastrously when it might have ended in a blaze of glory. ‘‘St. Leo's Win over Loyola 4-1; gains Interscholastic hockey crown by 8-4 on round score.’ Even though we did not win the title, we may boast of a somewhat successful season. We had all our breaks in the beginning and took advantage of them. We did have some sort of a record in winning six straight games which was sufficient any other year to win the trophy. Leaping the semi- final hurdle was a bit of a herculean task that is worthy of great praise. However, we seem to be a Dutch uncle to St. Leo's for we were responsible for their winning the title two years in a row. We must admit, however, that they were better than we were in the final as the score indicates and the old war cry arises, ‘Wait till next year.” It might be no harm to look at the Juniors in review before we close this brief account of the exploits of great but erratic little men. Our Captain Jimmy O'Connor was our most consistent Junior all year. His tireless energy and steady play made him outstanding on the team. He proved to be a goal getter and a playmaker, a combination that makes for success in any player. In actual league and play-off games he had the most assists and second in goal getting. Malone showed the most improvement during the season. If that hip had healed d tly, he would have been a different man in the home stretch. He also could score goals as he leads all others on the team and is not far behind in assists. O'Neill and Kohler developed rapidly and show great promise. They are both strong skaters and can score goals. Both of them will certainly see service with the Seniors at some future date. Competitive hockey is too serious a business for our famous twins. Fun for fun's sake is their motto, not exactly the attitude that | priae stars even in Junior dispu. Both Ed. and Fr. Langan have good shots. They are rugged players, but they failed to develop their natural abilities during the season. Poor health towards the end of the season rendered them a little ineffective. Al. Brown is a good goal-keeper, but is lacking in enthusiasm for that thankless job. If one needs spirit, it is when he is between the posts. Gendron has all kinds of ability, a good eye, fast in movement, but bad health has deprived him of the pleasure of realizing an ambition to become a great goal-keeper. Bill LOYOLA Page 115 COLLEGE REVIEW McCarney is without a doubt the most loyal of Juniors. We doubt if anyone has surpassed Bill in spirit and devotion to the team. Being small and slightly built, he is greatly handicapped in the rough and tumble game of today. With a few extra pounds and an inch or two in height he will be a hard man to keep off that left wing position. Next to Malone, Ed. Meagher has shown the most general improvement this year. He has just E his first year in ге Zeie hockey and displays plenty of ability. He is big, strong and fearless, three qualities of a star defenceman. With a little more experience he will be a hard man to stop. Wickham is steady, big and tough; when his skating im- proves a little he will be able to use that weight of his to the best advantage and will immediately become a candidate for the Canadiens’ negotiation list. Last but not least we come to Jackie Mc- Eachern. He is a smart player, moves quickly and is always on the job. His greatest fault is his periodic la into carelessness. He was certainly the mainstay and steadying influence for Meagher and ickham in some of the crucial games. We leave our genial and devoted manager to grace the author- ship of this somewhat brief review of our Junior Hockey Team, and from this we may draw a sufficient and adequate impression of his loyalty.

BANTAM HOCKEY Derr the loss of the Interscholastic Bantam Hockey League Trophy, we are justly proud of ‘‘the all out effort that our youngest team made in defence of their laurels. Rivalling the prowess of our senior sextets, Mr. Toppings’ Tots had to be content with second place in league standing. Yet, nothing was left to chance. Practices began at the Lachine Arena in early November. Nearly fifty enthusiastic newcomers were out to make a position on the squad. Only Owen Maloney and Don Bussière were left from Pete Shaughnessy's championship roster. First problem was to provide the strongest possible last line of defence. Two cool capable youngsters, Ron Sutherland and Bernie Doyle received goalie assignments. Worries about suitable Ee for net custodians were cast aside when Captain Bob Boyle, Johnny Meagher and Jack Callaghan commenced to split attacks wide open and to make rushes from end to end that proved veritable nightmares for our opponents. As the season progressed, Bernie Doyle moved out to defence and his strong body checking made opposing forwards appear timid. The forward lines were not chosen easily. Bob Sutherland finally gained a place on the first line by turning in some sparkling efforts along the right boards. Bob fitted into the Maloney-Bussiére veteran combination and it was a treat to watch these three zip the puck from one to the other and then into the net. Play maker Jimmy Leahy together with two speed merchants Guy Melangon and Warren Tremblay gave the team a strong second line. Allan Cochrane, a late comer from Ontario, was added to the roster after some games were played and he showed by his general aggressiveness that much may be expected from him in the future. Elmer McNamara another utility man gave some very pleasing performances both back on the defence and up on the forward line. The campaign opened against Brébeuf in mid-December. This first game was an index of what was to be expected. Playing away from home against a highly-rated, much-experienced team, the Bantams took both the bows and the curtain raiser. Good clever passing when caught behind their own blue line, effective back checking by the second forward line and a smooth passing attack by Maloney, Bussiére and Sutherland gave us our first win by the score of four to three. St. Thomas Aquinas was our next victim. In our t hird game against Catholic High we tasted defeat at the Forum. Extra attention was centered upon young Howie Morenz, Jr. with the result LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 116 REVIEW that Petit, who ended up the season as a junior league star, slipped away and rammed in four goals. In what was probably our best game, we then defeated Daniel O'Connel by the close margin of two to one. The French boys from Brébeuf locked horns with us on our home ice to be turned back again with the lean side of a four to three score. Then careful preparation began for the important return game with the Black and White team. No one who saw the battle will forget how our team came from behind to score two goals and tie up the score, only to be beaten by a strong last second rush of Petit. In this crucial contest Owen Maloney gave every promise of becoming a second Paul Haynes. While Owen and Donnie played like Trojans up front, Johnny Meagher fought like a tiger on defence. The Xavier Apostolate Night at the Forum saw us do battle with St. Leo's for the Canon Heffer- nan trophy. Fighting with the odds and score against us, we managed to take the lead and then experience told. Out to increase our margin of victory our strategy back fired. We were caught up the ice and the winning goal was scored by our friendly opponents with less than thirty E to play. Other games were played in which we were victorious. The improvement shown by everyone as the season progressed was heartening and promises well for future campaings.

In previous years the finish of the schedule has generally found one or other of the Senior High classes the winner of the shield. This year the tide turned. Third High B realized the ambitions of the junior classmen to dethrone the oft-winning seniors. And after disposing of all opposition in the senior circuit, the Third High team won easily over the First High A team, junior section winners. The sudden-death ame, which ended Third High B- 3; First High A- 0; named the senior section winners intra-mural Rockey champions for 1941. Games in both sections were contested in a fashion never before exhibited in intra-mural clashes. The fighting way, in which Fourth High B went down to defeat,—the sparkling play of First High A, will be stand-out memories in the ЕНЕ of the games’ faithful followers, who were not а few. LOYOLA Page 117 COLLEGE REVIEW In the senior section it seemed as if the Fourth High teams would again fight it out for the championship. But a dark horse appeared in the sterling play of Third High B. These hockeyists won successive victories over the expectant graduates to take the league lead, which they never relinquished. Fourth High A, then, dropped out of the running altogether. Their senior class col- leagues continued to fight valiantly to recapture the leadership an uphold Senior High prestige. Their efforts proved futile. f f 1 First High A topped all opponents in the junior section. A glance at the team standing will show how handily the yearlings walked off with the laurels. Out of six games played, the First High sextet won five. Their lone loss came in their opening game against Second High B. The two Second High teams finished runner-up to the champions, each team winning two games, losing two, and two others ending in a tie. Though the potential laurel-winners recovered magnificently from their trouncing by Second High B in the season's opener, the second encounter with their bigger class men saw them a bit ner- vous. After all, the previous game saw them on the short end of a nine to one count. But one will readily see how little the pre-game nervousness hampered the freshmen, since they won quite decisively by a three to one score. By this win, too, First High A clinched the championship. ere was one game remaining to be played against Second High A. One could hardly believe, seeing the furious style of play of the Secon High in that game, that the championship had already been settled. The First High men just eked out a victory over their hard driving opponents. The result of the play-off game between the winners of both sections has already been told. The junior section was represented by a classy outfit, with real goal-getters in their front linemen, C. Brown, A. Brown, and Ron Sutherland. In the sudden-death game against Third High B, these freshmen played their usual fast moving game. Their size, however, han e e them against their bigger opponents, who managed to cage three goals, while shutting out the First High men. yy TF SKIING 1941 To LOYOLA, where all good trophies go, the Paul Dandurand trophy has come to rest and we hope permanently. Emblematic of skiing pod it now rests along with Loyola's other souvenirs of victory in the High School parlour. All things considered, I think we had a highly successful season. A great deal of the credit for this should go to the L.C.A.A. for its wholehearted support of this sport, and in particular to Fr. McCarthy, ës moderator, for the fine job he did in organizing and officiating at the College and High School meets. While we are in this grateful mood, we should not neglect those unsung heroes like Dave Asselin and John Brayley who froze their hands and feet acting as officials so that the rest could enjoy them- selves racing. Here is a brief review of the season from a competitive standpoint. Paul Limoges is the College champ and Bob Swinton is our number one High School skier. They won these honours at the annual college ski-day at St. Sauveur on Shrove Tuesday. The race was limited to two tri down a giant slalom course on Hill 71. While we are on the inter-mural angle, we should not forget that Jules Stachiewicz was a surprise winner of the High School cross-country race. Another dark-horse was Phil Ready who ran a close second in this event. The highlight of the season was the Mgr y of the Catholic Interscholastic championships. Though all Loyola skiers turned in fine efforts, the following deserve special mention for their super- lative performance. Tom McKenna, our amiable L.C.A.A. president, was the hero of the day by winning the aggregate trophy, and was besides elected president of the Ski Union. Loyola not only won the championship, but also took over the Ski Union. Another of those ubiquitous McKenna's was the only Loyola man to take a first in any event. Emmett took the cross-country in a walk, being three minutes ahead of his nearest rival. Bob Swinton, by his steady showing, was a big factor in Loyola’s success. In the slalom he placed 6th and in the cross-country 6th. Hailing from St. Leo's, who were, no doubt sorry to lose the services of their finest skier, Pete Graham continued his dare- devil blasting of downhills runs under Loyola colours. John McDougall, who tformed the task of ski manager, was tight behind Tom McKenna in the aggregate. His story is a th in cross-country, LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 118 REVIEW a fourth in jumping and a fifth in slalom. Paul Paré, no longer in our midst, turned in fifth in jumping. Well, that completes the round-up of the Catholic meet. The other great competition was the first staging of the Protestant-Catholic meet. Emmett McKenna was our standout performer, with a third in jumping and a seventh in the downhill. Again he was one of the few to stay on the cross-country course. Merdo Kierans was the steadiest man on the team. He will be lost to us this year by graduation. Somewhat to everybody's surprise, Loyola came out second, beaten for first by Westhill. With the experience gained this year we can look for- ward to a better chance of victory next year. But Loyola skiers did not confine their efforts to Interscholastic competitions. If anyone glanced through the results of such meets as the Mt. Baldy, Taschereau, Ste. Adele and so forth, he would note the names of Loyola men high on the lists. Skiing was raised to the dignity of major sport for the first time at the end of this season. Just what this will mean in the constantly changing sporting set up we don't know. Letters may be awarded next year, but this is not by any means definite. Crests were awarded this year, which was a very generous gesture by the school. Certainly this was not expected at the beginning of the season. As we put away our skis for the summer, we can certainly look forward to another successful season in 1942. VTT BOXING Ee ‘BABE’ McLEOD came back in our midst this Spring again to coach our boxers. Back with his famous fighting spirit which drove four Loyola mittmen to win City titles last year. Babe is the man who between 1930 and 1939, set one of the most enviable records to which any lightweight could aspire. During his colorful ring career, our Coach, Mr. McLeod, picked up no less than 16 championships all told. In his impressive string, Babe has the Olympic Lightweight crown of 1936 and in the same year he also won the National ud. in Boston. The following year he turned professional and made his debut by clinching the Provincial laurels. In 1938 Babe travelled East and won the Junior Welterweight Championship of the Mari- times. Here, fistic fans, is the spectacular record of our popular mitt mentor. In all of his 385 amateur fights, Champion McLeod dropped only 19 bouts, while in his Professional career of 45 encounters he lost only 4. Impressive? Well, figure it out for yourself. We are very grateful to Loyola’s renowned boxing coach and we hope that we may sce Babe instructing our future white hopes for a long time to come. Cesar Aldaya, genial manager of the manly art in these precincts, deserves much credit for the yeoman services that he rend in promoting this sport. Cesar is a born Mike Jacobs and all who know him feel sure that he knows how to handle men. Drury Allen, the Brooklyn Bomber, proved a very capable assistant-manager and we are looking forward to his accomplishing greater feats next year. Our School Boxing Championships were held on Sunday, May 11th, and eleven of our class of fifty boxers were crowned Loyola Champions. Here is how the Montreal Star reported the fights in the following day’s paper: KIERANS KEEPS HEAVYWEIGHT BOXING CROWN” OUTPOINTS PAUL SHEEHAN—KNOCKOUTS FEATURE LOYOLA MEET Loyola College mittmen meant business yesterday afternoon when they staged their annual leather swinging fiesta before 500 yelling fans. Four clean knockouts and three technical K.O.'s testify to their earnestness. Kevin Kierans won both the Maroon Heavyweight title and copped the trophy as the best boxer. Only five champions managed to retain their titles when dusk had fallen over the environs of the Loyola Stadium. Those successful were Brian Danaher, who won two close decisions over the Sutherland brothers. Paul Thompson hung on to his Featherweight crown in decisive fashion putting away Gerald ec in the first round and then defeated Al. Brown in his second bout of the afternoon on a close ecision. LOYOLA Page 119 COLLEGE REVIEW Inspired by the successful efforts of his twin brother to hang on to the coveted title, Malcolm Thompson for the second year running grabbed off the Junior Flyweight laurels by a k.o. in the second round. Armando Colmenares put away Joe Shcen in the frst round and then went on to take a decision from Jim Daley. Rod Dungan who won his semi-final bout in this class was forced to default on doctor's advice. Kevin Kierans had a busy time with Tom Connors and Paul Sheehan, but took decisions from both to win the Heavyweight Championship for the second straight year.” Twenty-four of our boxers participated in the Monster Physical Fitness Show held at the Forum on April 4th, in which athletes from the city's leading schools, both Catholic and Protestant, competed. The fandom of the metropolis of Montreal was delighted with the ability and fighting spirit of Coach McLeod's Maroon aggregation. A challenge was issued to Regiopolis College, Kingston, as our boys felt confident that they could add the Limestone City's laurels to what they had won, but the latter team declined. Father G. Raymond Sutton, S.J., (Athletic Director) presented the following Loyola 1941 Boxing Champions with crests and trophies: Pepperweight GEORGE MOLINA 90 Ibs.

This academic year witnessed remarkable proof that our sprint and stride artists” are determined to equal and even surpass our greatest accomplishments along the cinder paths. Stimula- ting this renewed interest in the most ancient of sports is our new track and field coach Mr. Lester T. Carroll, S.J. Early spring produced evidence that Maroon and White trackmen ranked with the best in the city. Participating in the Physical Fitness Display at the Forum, Peter Shaughnessy, Carlos Tabio, Frank Londono and Robert Swinton won the indoor relay championship of the city. This was but a harbinger of more important things to come. LOYOLA COLLEGE Page 120 REVIEW Later twelve men were chosen to represent Loyola at the Interscholastic Dominion Track Cham- pionships held at McGill on May twenty-fourth. This marked our definite return to extra-mural track competition after a lapse of almost ten years. The results of this important meet were most ratifying. P We pained a third place among the forty city High Schools competing and a fifth among all the schools in Eastern Canada. With the experience gained this year, Mr. Carroll holds high hopes of attaining even better results next year. Our Junior Team composed of Don Bussiére, Mickey Carriére, Jimmy Fonseca and Freddie Mateu, was our leading point getter. These speed merchants earned nineteen (19) of our thirty-two points. Don Bussiére following his father's and uncle's famous footsteps was an outstanding runner for Loyola. He alone brought home a Dominion title to the College. Donnie now holds the 120 yard Junior Hurdle Championship of Canada. The Intermediate squad was made up of Frank Fonseca, Augusto Molina, Joe Tous and Frank Higgins. Unfortunately an accident in practice just prior to the meet deprived us of the services of Higgins. However, Frank Fonseca, slim rangy New Yorker, managed to salvage some ten points for us in this division. The Varsity team didn't fare too well. Peter Shaughnessy and Gerry Gallagher managed to count in the high jump and pole vault, but the rest of the squad succumbed to the greater experience and speed of their faster opposition. Bob Swinton and Pat Devaux performed admirably and more should be heard from these Warriors next spring. The Montreal Star reports our Thirty-Third Annual Meet in the June second edition as follows: Shaughnessy Retains Loyola Track Crown for Third Year. Tops Seniors—Fonseca Brothers Brilliant. Nine records were smashed and one equalled in the 33rd Annual Field Day on Loyola Campus. The feature of the day's activities was the five star performance of Pete Shaughnessy in capturing the President's trophy for the third straight year. ' Shaughnessy had little trouble in retaining the honors as he snatched three firsts and finished second in another event to get a strangle-hold on the silverware. ' “Frank Fonseca made almost a clean sweep of Intermediate events by grabbing off five firsts in his division. The junior crown went to Don Bussiére while Jimmy Fonseca emulating his big brother annexed the Bantam title’. Pete Shaughnessy scored wins in the century, 120 yard hurdles, and high jump. With a second in the broad jump, the seventh of the Shags to perform for Loyola piled up a total of 18 points.” “Big Pete maintained that the third time was luck , but the records show he held a clear three point margin over his nearest rival Pat Devaux. While Shaughnessy failed to establish any new records, he became the first student ever to hold the President's trophy three years running. “Pat Devaux made the going tough for Pete, however, as he set up a new mark for the mile in addition to winning the 440 and 880 events. Gerry Gallagher set up a new Pole Vault mark when he cleared the bar at ten feet three inches, increasing the previous mark by four inches. Charlie Tabio leaped 20 feet to equal the broad jump mark. Frank Fonseca, in capturing the Intermediate aggregate, bettered the high jump mark and took first place in the 100, 220, 100 yard hurdles and broad jump for a total of 25 points. The only other event in this section was won by Augusto Molina of Mexico City who won the 440 in 1 min. Don Bussière had a hard time of it before winning the junior crown. Bussière won the 80 yard hurdles, set up a new mark in the broad jump with a leap of 17 feet 5 inches and placed in the 75, 220 and high jump. Mickey Carriére was close behind with victories in the 75 and 220. Larry Doherty bettered the junior high jump with a leap of four feet 1034 inches. “Jimmy Fonseca had the Bantam Crown sewed up with wins in the 75, 220, 80 yard hurdles, high jump, baseball throw and shot put. The Mite title was won by John Lord who took both the 75 and 220 in this newly created division. By way of concluding our report on track activities at the College and as a refresher to interested Alumni, we quote in full an article taken from the Montreal Gazette for Thursday, June 5th, 1941. Around Loyola College they say a Shaughnessy never loses. He never loses anything worth winning, that's certain, particularly in the matter of track championships. “Last Saturday, for the third straight time, Peter took the President's Cup just as Philip had done before him in 1936, Laurie і 1931, and '32, and Quinn, the first of the family, in the year of the big market crash, 1929. “In all, four Shaughnessys have won the same Loyola track title seven times with more from the same family still to be heard from. Frank Shaughnessy, Jr., was found around the school with Laurie and besides taking the junior title he dabbled in higher divisions. Jack and Ray presided in the latter LOYOLA Page 121 COLLEGE REVIEW thirties with great capability on the gridiron and Paul, who is behind Peter at Loyola now, played senior football for the school last fall. One daughter in the clan, Katherine, probably would have done something equally notable at Loyola if girls were admitted to the College. “According to Peter who has seen them all come and go, Quinn could have been the best track- man of the crew, but he graduated from High School at fifteen and College at 19. He was too young for his class although he could still take Monty Montabone (of a later Canadian Olympic team) in an occasional hurdles. Quinn is now in Washington with the Securities Exchange Commission. Laurie's long suit was the sprint, but, like all Shaughnessys, he could broad jump with skill when called upon. Philip, of 1936 vintage, had taken the Junior and Intermediate titles prior to his senior triumph, while Peter's supremacy over the past three years would probably go on without interruption, but he graduates this month.” This means that young Paul will now get his chance, and, as the last in the long line of Shaugh- nessys, it is hoped he will finish out the string on a high note. Last Saturday he entered the senior shot-put and was disqualified for an illegal toss and so far he has not shown much inclination for sprinting, thereby causing some small consternation in the family.” “Вис Paul is only seventeen years old—and when the time comes he'll win. For after all he is а Shaughnessy. THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL FIELD DAY RESULTS 1940 Events First SECOND | THIRD | Time | Recorp SENIOR DIVISION 100 yards... Shaughnessy...............)
