The new-born violets raise their heads, Thy thrilling call to hear; V ' hat magic, Robin, guiiles thee home With each succeeding year? Enticing Childhood to the fields To pluck the daisies gay, Its merry laugh, its wanton shout. Fit rivals of thy lay. For thee, sweet bird, the world is bright, Thy sky is ever clear; No note of sadness dulls thy life. No winter mars thy year. — Karl E. Von der Ahe .yt- — I 17 I [ 18 ] yji EL CAMIN oZTO SMy ' Dear Students: Ssto vir — be a man, was the ancient good advice given in Holy Writ to the youth of Qod ' s chosen people, for that people, afflicted with many and varied vicissitudes, required a sturdy manhood to lead them from slavery into the kingdom of freedom and delight. Clear thinkers, clean-hearted, courageous jews were required to guide the destiny of their great nation, and history attests that it was just that type of man that led the chosen people of Qod. SMy dear young men, the life we live today requires just those same characteristics, and so I bid you be a man. Our pathway is strewn with the briars of deceit and the brambles of intrigue; enemies from within and from without lurk along this pathway; the sun of comfort will not shed its rays upon us, and we are bid to press on. Only the stout of heart will mount this rugged path- way and co)ne to the eternal way. A real man will not be overcome by false friends, falsely accusing him; he will not be overcome by the wiles of Satan; he will not be overcome by poverty, sickness, labor, or anything else. ' Be a man — charge you never to forget this, so that when you are in the midst of your turmoil, of your trouble, you will look back to Loyola and remember that we told you Be a man. devotedly Tour ' President, V- . : I 19 ] --■ I ..

' ■ EL CAMINO ' This, the first Tear- ook of Loyola High School, portrays, we trust, the labors and achievements of our student body during the scholastic year just completed. SMost every department is represented in picture and pen, yet much remains which cannot be pictured nor put into writing. Students are welcomed to Loyola ' s halls who ambi- tion scholastic learning and, if found worthy, are admitted to her various organizations wherein they may further their oratory, their diction or even their athletic prowess, ' ut throughout then course there is ever the counsel to each and every student: ' e young gentle- men, be young men of character. Tes, a young man of character is a gentleman in the classroom, on the athletic field, at school and at home. Wherefore, education in this broader sense is the aim of Loyola ' s faculty, to instill and inspire her five hundred students with what is best in the molding of gentlemanly character. If you young gentlemen of Loyola hare acquired the traits of a strong and noble character together with your scholastic training, you have acquired much. 7 ou shall become the men of tomorrow, — a credit to your country, an honor to your school and a friend of Qod. ■ ' Ae .a W ' I 2J I - wmrLn r r i 9k J ■ M c-i. yX.i :.

SPRINGTIME An ancient oak witli mighty arms outspread, As monarch rules throned on a crested hill, While clouils pile up in mountains overhead, And in the gazer pulses nature ' s thrill. In fieUls below the farmer on his plow. Resting, the toil of weary hours surveys. And wipes the sweat of labor from his brow, Then turning, heavenward bends his anxious gaze. Behind him in the furrows freshly turned, A regiment of greedy sparrows flit. In noisy squabble o ' er the feast unearned. Where the dark loam was by plowshare split. — Edward H. Kf.i i. m .V ' I a I C uH j!lfy ARRIVAL Upon the beach by Christian men untrod, Fra Serra neeling offered up to Qod The Land ' s first prayers; and nigh the kjieeling band, crowd of natives stood upon the sand zAnd gazed with awe upon strange men whose eyes Were turned aloft, who spaJ{e unto the skjes. i!kA i„ k -v .l [ 34 ] Classes EL CAMINO TEMPUS FUGIT As a great wheel turns, the bottom quickly rising to the top, the top quickly sinking to the bottom, so turns the wheel of human life, yesterday, today, tomorrow. To the butterlly, bursting from its cocoon in Spring, dead after a few tiays or weeks, all of life, all the world ' s important history seems crowded into those few days. To ignorant man, gasping in the cradle one morning, buried in oblivion seventy years later, all life seems crowded into the short seventy years. But he who studies human life through the eye of history knows that a century is the ticking of a second, in Time ' s Eternal Watch, and that the life of a man is less than the lives of the ephemeridae, so called be- cause they see the sunlight of one day only. So fast does Life ' s wheel turn round and round that the top today is the bottom tomorrow. c=3nc= VA DEL REY LARK Sweet meadowlark, let thy task be To sing all day Thy lilting lay; And fill with thrills The Del Rey hills With cheery song for thee and me.

There have been many trials and experiences and much happiness during that time. Henceforth, only memories ' picture remains; memories of Freshman, Sopho- more, Junior and Senior years, which complete the four panels of the picture. For us, the fourth or Senior panel holds the most conspicuous place because on it we hold, painted in most vivid colors, the glorious deeds of our class. Spirit is the high-light of the picture; spirit which carries such an organization as ours above the commonplace and enables it to do much for its own betterment and for the betterment of the underclassmen whom it leads. Imbued with this spirit we see the Seniors supporting and engaging in all activities which develop the mind and spirit as well as the physical being. Let one but write the name Senior with the name of any other organiza- ' m -,-y , . I 36 ] tion and it becomes evident at once that spirit and the hfe-blood of that organi- zation depends for its vigor on the cooperation of the upper classmen. The LoyaHst and El Camino staffs, the Monogram Club, the Sodality and other Religious Societies, Forenscis and Dramatics — all these owe their great success to the spirit antl leadership of the Seniors. When gazing into the ' 29 picture, the departing Seniors can truly say without braggadocio, that they ha e done much, very much, to bequeath splendid ideals and worthy examples to the coming Seniors and that they go from the Portals of Loyola High School with a great record of glorious achievement. And this is why our Senior panel depicts a long line of athletic stars marching hand in hand with the intellectual giants of the class room. .. A T ' ,i 4r,) r ?7 ] EL C A Ml NO WILLIAM G.

Pennants floating on high They would do or would die In the brunt of the stubborn fight; Not an inch would they yield Of the hard-fought field In a cause that they deemed was right. So the knights of today Equal prowess display In the thrilling lists of sport, As they valiant contest To prove who ' s the best On diamond, and gridiron, and court. Thru thick and thru thin How they battle to win Alma Mater ' s admiring glance! The spirit ' s the same, Howe ' er different the game If Chivalry leads the advance. Yet though vict ' ry in strife Is the charm of our life. Yet success is too oft a coquette. While we bask in her smile. She is planning the while Our goat in the issue to get. So to give of its best, Light-hearted and jest Till it hears the report of the gun. That ' s the team of all teams, The Cream of all Creams, For that is the Chivalrous one. — F.

Each one of the thirty-six students composing the class did his best to further the advancement of student activities at Loyola. The officers for the year were: E. Amestoy, president; W. Michel, vice-president; R. Lincoln, secretary; J. Caplis, treasurer. They served with honor and distinction and were most diligent in carrying out the rushes of their fellow members. It is due to their efforts that 3-A reached its eminent position in supporting all the activities of the school. The class as a unit backed every movement inaug- urated for the good of the student body. 3-A has given its quota of athletes to the different athletic teams. The members of 3-A, while giving of their best to athletics and forensics, did not forget the spiritual side of High School life, and a majority inscribed their names on Our Lady ' s Banner as her servants I lin the Sodality.

JUNIOR CLASS— DIVISION B With a quickness of action characteristic of the class, the election of offi- cers for 3-B was held the second day of school, with the following residts: President, Frank del Valle; Vice-President, William Curran; Secretary, Gerard Werner; Treasurer, Vincent Keppler. By their presence at the helm these officers contributed much to the success of 3-B. An outstanding achievement of this class was that in every contest in which all the classes participated, 3-B either won or placed. This was a fitting record for men who next year are to steer the destiny of Loyola High School. In activities such as the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin and the Debating Societies, 3-B had an active representation. The athletic world at Loyola had one Varsity football letterman, two flashy basketball performers and two Prep Varsity baseball pitchers from 3-B. Displaying a fine team, the Noon Basket- ,v j ball League was led to the finish by 3-B. , i L ..Ji- A. [ 53 ] EL CAMINO Top Row: F. Barrv, . LcBnui, W . Muhcl. E. Kaujnian, H. Lunulri. . Ail unuii, .

JUNIOR CLASS DIVISION C With an acknowledged record of giving some of the greatest athletes to Loyola ' s battling teams, 3-C must be given the palm for supporting every activity to be found on the campus or in the forensic halls of the High School. Not a few of the husky warriors of the varsity football team claimed 3-C as their scholastic guide. And let us not forget that 3-C provides the football | Captain for next year ' s varsity in the distinguished person of Chapman. We could not help but have a very successful year when our destinies at the begin- ning of the 1928-1929 term were placed in the capable hands of Domingo Bastanchury, president; Vincent O ' Donnell, vice-president; Robert Perkins, secretary; Joseph Mautz, treasurer. Our achievements both in the class room and upon the rostrum were indeed brilliant and quite in keeping with the great record established upon the athletic field. Practically the entire class was extremely active in taking part in every activity. ' ' « _ - - , - % K I 54 ] Top U. n A Diiitll. . () ' (: , mull, . U ' uudi. U. I ' diiii.uci. . Ucir. M.

SOPHOMORE CLASS— DIVISION A From the first of September to the last of May, this division of the Sopho- more Class possessed a truly remarkable spirit. Led by R. Houser. with J Costello and F. Gambold as assistants, the class completed a splendid year in keeping with the trend of the school. Foremost amongst their activities was their great success in the advertise- $ ment contest of the El Camino. To finish first was a distinction coveted by h many classes. t Boasting many players in football, especially on the lightweight and midget squads, 2-A was not behind athletically. The latter part of the year found many 2-A ' ers engaged in minor sports. In public speaking, debating and dramatics, this class had a part. The Shakespearean Contest, the Joseph Scott Debating Society and Seven Keys to Baldpate numbered our classmates among their participants. ' V W. 5fi T ' lC Kau: r. .liiluiUtci. K.

SOPHOMORE CLASS— DIVISION B When the activities of Loyola are reviewed. Second High B, by its faithful spirit and interest, deserves the name of true Loyolans. In inter-class athletics, the indoor team won second place; and the basket- ball team a high standing. The Varsity football team had T.Meade, T. Higgins and T. Sizemore, while R. Davin cavorted for the Varsity basketballers. Representatives from 2-B were on the Lightweight Football and Tennis teams. The Vincent B. Vaughn Debating Society had many officers from this class. Approximately one-half of the class was represented in the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin; some members also served Mass. The entire class was Bk in the League of the Sacred Heart. , V, tftm n A ( 57 1 Top Row: G. Meycri. A. Klaii. G. Pluwer. . I ' dtinm. H. Diclycr. K. Cnlh.m. ' . La Koquc. U. Hefferon. D. Fox.

The sports of the field as well as all literary activities claimed representatives from this class. When the issuing of football suits was announced, many students from 2-C were among the recipients. They helped to establish the pigskin prestige g that is Loyola ' s. The looping basketball shot and the ringing basehit came •- • from the skill of 2-C ' s members on the several teams. 2-C was also prominent in forensics. By taking an eager interest in such activities, the individuals of this class gained splendid reputations for theni- selves and for the school. Not a few 2-C ' ers were in the ranks of Our Lady ' s Sodality, and they were justly proud of the honor. The class did its bit for El Camino. Finally in that necessary group, the cheering section, members of 2-C were present one hundred percent 58 1 EL CAMINO ' ' 3£:. ' Top Rou: C. Dngn.in. M. Hjnlun. D. McKeniui, I ' , Uitluig. R.

SOPHOMORE CLASS— DIVISION D Springing into fame by their Dink caps and one hundred per cent support of the LoyaHst, in which they were the first, the class of 2-D attained an enviable place in the school. The originality of their caps, which were ,4jblue, with the white letters 2-D on the front, was admitted by all at Loyola. In the Annual Ad contest, 2-D held the lead to the last day, when it was relinquished to another second year class. But the support of 2-D was proven to the entire student body. In athletics the efforts of this class were rewarded by third place in the Indoor League, and in the Noon Basketball League, second. The lightweight teams had the stellar performance of 2-D men, each sport being represented by some member or members. .j ' ' Ji r. r 59 1 EL CAMINO MARY, OUR MOTHER Thee, Mother, Thee, our Queen, who givest Assurance from the Heavens most high To earth whereon thy children sigh That by our Lord ' s grace while thou livest So hope shall ever die.

FRESHMAN CLASS DIVISION A Worthy officers in the persons of M. Feeley, president; B. Davin, vice- president; R. Tirado, secretary, carried on the season ' s activities for 1-A in a most efficient manner. A brief perusal of the student body affairs will dis- close the fact that the leading division of First Year men was very prominent in athletics, forensics and spiritual duties incumbent on Loyola students. Energy was the watchword of this class and all events received the energetic and enthusiastic support of its members. In the Junior division of major sports, the First Year A Loyolans exhibited a tenacity of purpose in carrying Loyola ' s fame to the greatest heights, worthy of their older brothers. [ 62 DIVISION B Among the most prominent of the first year classes was 1-B. Whether in athletics or studies, this class was greatly interested. Although new in their surroundings at the beginning of the year, these plucky freshmen adapted themselves to their new school. By their rapid strides, the members of 1-B threaten to become future leading upper-classmen. The quick organizing of the class helped them to go over one hundred per cent in Loyalist subscriptions before others had neared that mark. On the diamond and the gridiron 1-B was best represented. In the intellectual realm the Debating Society, and even the Loyalist Staff found them active. Their participation in the Sodality was very evident. ,W -T ilu, [ 63 ] EL CAMINO Top Row: F. Winkler. .

As newcomers, we were at a loss for a time to know just how to act. But we quickly accustomed ourselves to our new environments and entered the activities with all the spirit that is characteristic of true Loyolans. Our basketball and baseball teams gave a good account of themselves against the more experienced teams of the upper classes. Many of the school teams were not complete without the players from this class; while at all times did the class back the varsity teams. The scholastic activities also were sponsored by this class. The Junior Debating Societies, and the Sodality had many of their most active members from this class. The paper and the Annual were backed with the spirit that has raised Loyola to its present heights. H 6-1 EL CAMINO Top Koif C. Tnmhitiy. o.c. Chciuliiy. T. .Irmcr, A. W ' ooiihuiy. . W ' chcy.

These men, unac- quainted with school life, and with very much to discover regarding the ideals and activities of such a large student body as ours, entered upon their duties imbued with the proper spirit and pep which augured well for the future of the class and .school. When the indoor league opened for the classes of the school, I-D was represented with a fast peppy team. Quite a few stellar lights were discovered glittering on the handball courts, who give promise of repre- senting their Alnia Mater in coming championship contests. Many promising ' g ' ljfcS i orators and ilebaters were found among the 1-D representatives and these were Vra foremost members of the Vincent B.

M 1 Activities !! Student Body Qovernment [ 68 ] EL CAMINO To THE Students of Loyola High School: It is my sincere desire in writing this message to congraguUite the student body for the successful completion of a banner scholastic year. Such a year was brought about only by your splendid cooperation with the student body officers. We are toKl that cooperation makes for success. The year just com- pleted prominently brings out that fact. Every activity, whether athletic or scholastic, has been a success. To illustrate: recall our athletic activities during the past school year. We had a football team which, because of your untiring support, won eight out of its nine games played. We boasted a basketball squad that won the majority of its games. Our baseball team was fully capable of taking two out 3f three games from any high school squad. The success of these teams, as you have been constantly reminded, was due to the spirit with which the student body supported them. It is true, we were blessed with splendid ma- terial, but your spirit behind that material has brought to the team success. Every school activity undertaken was a great success. When one hundred per cent subscription to the school paper was asked for by the editor, every class responded and the publication has flourished. The add contest to raise funds for the first High School Annual, El Camino, went over with a bang due to your cooperation. The results show that you are deeply concerned with the activities of your school. Our Debating Societies combining business with pleasure flourished as they never flourished before, while the Sodalities nourished the spiritual life necessary for the webbing of every student. The Aero Club was a source of much interest and pleasure to its members. The Monogram Club stands for better athletics in Loyola and certainly lived up to its motto. All members of the different societies have cooperated splendidly with the student officers. I personally wish to express my appreciation for your kind cooperation with my office and I wish all success and the same cooperation that you have given me, to the newly elected officers. William J. Hawkins, Student Body President. ,. A«-.. i l ' W ,i.... ,C I 69 1 [ 70 MINO -Tnrvil T Top Row: ■ ' . Ctijiigluiiy. . Hillilii. k. Ashwuy. II ' . Mulloy. L. liens. C. (J ' Cnidy. .

SENIOR GOVERNMENT Under the able leadership of Arthur Houser, the united Senior Classes played a very important part in the student-body government of the High School. Thoroughly united, they sponsored every measure that had foi its object the progressive spirit and welfare of the students individually and col- lectively. At the beginning of the year Mr. Houser was elected Senior Presi- dent. He took over a class much disorganized, but his executive ability, com- i bined with a pleasing personality, soon brought order out of chaos and a splen- did united organization began to function. As the year progressed, the influ- ence of the Seniors over the underclassmen made itself felt and as a result the entire student-body battled as a single unit for the honor and glory of Loyola. , m. %i A m.

It has as its object the fostering of a greater devotion, reverence and love for the Blessctl Mother of God. It does not, however, confine its good works to members alone, but, by good example, influences the entire student body. The school as a whole and the Sodalist in particular derives many great blessings from this organization. As a branch of the Sodality the Students Spiritual Council functions as the legislative part of the organization. It consists of students who are placed as leaders of the various departments of work under the Sodality. During its regular bi-monthly meetings plans arc designed and placed into effect that have made the Sodality the successful organization that it is. On Friday of each week, at eight o ' clock, the Sodality holds its meeting. The meetings consist of Mass, Communion and prayers. After the Mass short talks are given on some topic of interest to the Sodalists. These talks are maile by leading members of the Student Body or by the moderator. This year the Sodality has grown to such an extent that it was necessary to have a reception on three different occasions. April Sth, the Feast of the Annunciation, and the particular feast of the Sodality at Loyola, was a day that will long live in the minds of every Sodalist. Over eighty candidates . were consecrated to the Blessed Mother while the Sodality received Com- munion in a body. During the month of May the whole school gathered in the Chapel to pay honor to Mary, the Queen of the May, and to listen to the , talks given by the Sodalists. And now another chapter in the history of the Sodality has been brought to a close. It is with pride and hope that the Sodalists look hack over the events of the past year. .

J Considtors Tlic Students Spiritual Council consists of the Sodality ' s Prefect, the two Assistants, the Secretary, Treasurer, Instructor of Candidates, and ten Con- suitors. These are its Major Officers. Among their numbers will be found the student directors of the various spiritual works carried on at Loyola. To a certain extent not only the life of the Sodality but the spiritual tone of the whole school rests on them. It is their duty to find ways and means whereby all students, sodalists in particular, can give practical expression to the religious principles which are taught within Loyola ' s walls. The Sodality of the Blessed Virgin, through the S. S. C, is the Mother Society of the following organizations: The League of the Sacred Heart; The Sanctuary Society; The Missionary Society, and The Social Service Society. Througii them it fosters frequent Communion, and visits to the Blessed Sacrament and devotion to Our Lady. It spreads Catholic literature Yi among the students and keeps spiritual interests before their eves bv con- stant bulletins. Frequently during the year the members of the Students ' Spiritual Council aililressed the Sodality in the Chapel. The deep religious spirit manifested in their short exhortations had a very good effect on all. .W - ' sy:. -«to %M u,. JL . - ' r 77 ] EL C Ml NO Top Row: . Kick,ard, C. BeinJ f. . Yuimn. .

THE LEAGUE OF THE SACRED HEART The purpose of the League of the Sacred Heart is to foster in the students an earnest reUgious spirit, particularly a deep and tender love towards Our Blessed Lord in the Sacrament of His Love and a consequent reparation for the offenses committed against Him. This is one of the most popular devotions in the school. About three- - 1 fourths of all the students make the Morning Offering daily, and nearly all receive Holy Communion on the First Fridays. From amongst a band of thirty students organized in each of the four Second High Classes, one or more receives Holy Communion every day of the month in reparation for his own or others ' sins. It is hoped that this form of devotion may be taken up by the other classes. h V ■ i :j« [ 78 THE SOCIAL SERVICE SOCIETY The purpose of this organization is to spread the gospel of Christ among poor children who would otherwise not receive any religious instruction. In the city of Los Angeles there are thousands of young children of the poorer class who depend upon the generous lay persons for spiritual aid. Priests and Sisters are too few to give all the attention which they require. The boys of Loyola are asked to share the knowledge of their Faith with others less fortunate. Owing to the great difficulty of the work and the heroic sacrifices demanded, many who have taken up the work do not persevere. Much credit, therefore, is due to those who work unto the end. Of all the activities which give glory to Loyola High School, the heroic charity of the Social Service Society stands supreme. We see young men in a pleasure loving city for- getting their own desires and amusements to embrace what often is a 2 repugnant task for the love of Christ and souls. This organization is so noble of purpose and its work .so difficult of execution that high church officials in Rome are keenly interested in its success. Would that more loyal sons of Lovola offered their services to this great societv of God. i ' hM . JiM } I 79 ] EL CAMINO To T Row: J. Erlingcr, W. McDevitt, E. fccncy. L. Gihcit, K. ' oii tier Ahc.

Fol{s THE SANCTUARY SOCIETY The Sanctuary Society lost more members by graduation and ordinary summer changes perhaps than any other high school organization. Practically, a new membership had to be enrolled to keep the Society up to its wonted efficiency. Today, the society numbers about twenty-eight members, and the Moderator is highly pleased with the spirit manifested. We all know that it I requires no little sacrifice to leave a warm bed on a cold, dark morning to serve a 6:30 o ' clock Mass, and this sacrifice becomes the greater when one must travel a great distance to serve our Blessed Lord at the foot of the Altar. But the acolyte who allows Faith to guide his life knows that he enjoys the privilege of assisting at the very repetition of the sacrifice of Calvary. And , when he receives Our Blessed Lord in Holy Communion at the Altar steps, ' he is compensated a hundred fold for the passing inconveniences suffered as a follower of Christ. h k ' ' [ 80 S Sls; Organizations [ 82 ] EL L..M1NO Standing: V.

In the distance may be seen the future path of this book, the building of which is in the hands of the future editors. It was a privilege for the students of this year to inaugurate the High School ' s first individual year book, separate from the College. i Truly it was an enormous task. On its own resources the staff had to struggle, to labor, — and it triumphed. As the reader peruses these pages, perhaps he can better appreciate their effort by visualizing to himself the toil and s[)irit written between each page. Both the business and editorial sections of the staff possessed capable individuals who contributed greatly towards the success of this book. Under the leadership of Karl Von der Ahe, Editor-in-Chief, the wishes and ambitions of an aspiring staff were realized. Truly, every Loyolan can be proud of this first El Camino and its creators. ; iM. Ii JS 83 [ M ] Standing: F. Coi (:ll. ■. Hjiry. f. Kelly. . 0 ' H ir,:. . MtC.ii. ' Jn. I- . Milchell. A. Weher. S.

Coming into existence last year, this paper has steadily gained the confidence and support of the entire student body until now it is one of the most important activities of the school. Enthusiasm does much, and consequently its presence on the Loyalist staff has clone more than rules and regulations ever could. By his splendid work as editor-in-chief, William O ' Meara has been in- strumental in producing such a paper as Loyola boasts. His knowledge of journalism playetl an important part, and its influence enabled amateur writers to greatly improve their work. Ideal for his position and very capable was John Lieb, assistant editor. The sub-editors and reporters, by their earnest efforts and fine results, deserve the applause of the most discriminating observers. For in their work, thev have expended time and labor in the interest of their school, which has greatly profited by their work. ::y ' ' .lU, I 85 ] Top Row: ]. Richard, R. Wilson . V. Lawson, F.

Corkill Officers President Vice-President Treasurer Corresponding Secretary Recording Secretary - Sergeant-at-Arms The Father Riippert Debating Society has just completed its sixth con- secutive year of active organization. The purpose of this societv is to famiharize its members with the fundamental knowledge of Parliamentary Law and to train them through systematic practice in the art of oral expression. Meetings are held every Friday evening during the school session. The program for each evening consists of a constructive criticism of the last debate, a recitation selected from a poet or a famous orator and an original essay. The debate then follows. A novel system of getting timely subjects for debate has been in vogue this year. Besides the ordinary committee, whose duty it is to look about for popular subjects, each member of the organization hands in a debatable question in which he himself is interested. If his subject is chosen for debate, he acts as first speaker of the affirmative and assists his colleague in obtaining material. Father Hugh C. Donavon, who has charge of the activities of this organi- zation, has inspired his young orators with enthusiasm and has developed many remarkable speakers. It has been a practice to have debates with the high schools of this city. The dual debate with Huntington Park High School on the question, ' Resolved that the plea of ' not guilty by reason of insanity ' should be abolished in the State of California was the feature. Another item of interest was the exhibition debate in Latin held under the auspicies of the Los Angeles Board of Education at Roosevelt High School. The debate was entirely conducted in Latin, and the question for discussion was, Resolved that the study of Latin has greater advantages for the general training of the mind than any modern language. Prior to the debate proper, there was an original Latin essay De Arte Volandi. There was ahso a Latin oration, a translation of Washington ' s speech to his soldiers. This organization also participated in the National Oratorical Contest. A successful year ended with an equally successful banquet in the Blue Room of the Los Angeles Athletic Club on the evening of May 8th. 4 iiiu Jk ( 87 I [ 88 JOSEPH SCOTT DEBATING SOCIETY Leo a.

Topics de- bated were as diversified as they were engrossing, while on the part of not a few unique talent was displayed in potent logic and elegant oratory. From such a display one can conjecture how glorious a future awaits these embryonic lawyers and civic leaders. They are to be congratulated on availing them- selves of the envied opportunity to assimilate such splendid forensic training, and they did this, too, with eagerness. While weekly attendance often entailed great inconveniences, these were uncomplainingly encountered to augment Loyola ' s prestige and their own advancement. Such devotion is bound to be eventually remunerated as one reaps only in commensuration as he sows. Let us hope that members of the Joseph Scott Debating Society will reap abundantly of the forensic fruit. The debaters were often so engrossed in the topics assigned for weekly disputation, and displayed such absorbing interest at the meetings that they became oblivious to the passing hours. Exact compliance with the rules of parliamentarv procedure were insisted upon as this added the desired tone of judicial formality, a practice of much value for future use. Elections were heUl at the beginning of each semester. Robert Houser received the singular honor of having been elected to the gubernatorial position on both occasions. He, as well as the other elected officers, discharged their duties splendidly. Dues, amounting to a small amount, were collected weekly. The annual picnic was held just before the end of the scholastic year by the members, where jo ial spirit reigneil supreme. ' JiiLt I 89 1 [ 90 EL NiO nfi ni VINCENT B.

The prep- aration, interest and good-will manifested tluring the weekly forum.s, have rendered the meetings highly enjoyable as well as instructive. As a small, though integral part of the debating system that has brought no little honor to Loyola, the Society ' s aim is to give its members every opportunity to learn the fundamentals of debate and parliamentary law. Debaters are given two weeks in which to prepare their arguments and also instruction and guidance with regard to the use of reference material. Meet- ings are opened with a prayer and when the minutes and other business have been disposed of, the elocutionist of the evening is called upon. Then follows the debate proper. Six minutes are allowed each debater for the presentation of his case, while the affirmative side is granted a three-minute rebuttal. Robert ' s Rules of Order govern all proceedings and are enforced by the Presi- dent, assisted by the moderator. Following the completion of the rebuttal, the sergeant-at-arms collects the votes and while these are being tabulated Open House is in order. The moderator ' s remarks and criticism usually follow the general discussion and when the results of the ballot have been announced, motion for adjournment is in order. Thus, it is evident, that our debaters when called upon in the near future to attend meetings, whether of a civic or commercial character, will be prepared to give a fit representa- tion of their cause. Among the topics debated during the past school year, the following proved to be of special interest: The Relative Merits of Los Angeles and San Francisco, Collegiate Athletics, and Abolition of Prizefighting in California.

The purpose of this club is to further athletics at Loyola by securing the interest and co-operation of the students, in order to make athletics entirely self-supporting, and to render full aid to the Moderator and keep the highest ideals of sportsmanship before the teams representing Loyola. It is an honorary club, in which only those students who have made varsity letters in one or more of the three major activities, football, basketball or baseball, may become members. A dance was given by the Monogram Club at the Knights of Columbus r ballroom in honor of the charter members. It was a very successful event both from a social and financial standpoint, there being between two and three hundred couples in attendance. t 92 1 { EL C A Ml NO Standing: K. Hunnon. . Maiilz. W .

USHERS The county has its constables, the city has its policemen, and Loyola has its Ushers to see that proper order and decorum is observed at the various functions sponsored by the L oyola High School Student Body. Membership in this club is limited to upper classmen, especially to those who sport on their bosoms the big L. The L is not a requisite for membership. One must, however, be elected to this chosen band, as only the big of limb and strong of heart can fittingly swing the big stick. The club of course stands for law and order, both within the school halls and outside on the campus. The mere presence of these Ushers at any school function is sufficient to guarantee that law and order will be kept. Indeed, Loyola is to be congratulated on having such a splendid body of young men to guide her large body of moving stu- dents to their various assignments during the day. Without the least sem- L blance of disorder, the entire student body moves from class room to chapel or to gymnasium with only a few Ushers looking on. All hail to the Ushers of Loyola. They have taken the place of the Prefects and the Student is much the better for it. JBt- . A ' W ..i... A 0, _N .V- z . ' 9i ] EL C A Ml NO Top Row: P. Cormac . W. Bundle, H. Ramsey, G. Werner. W .

The club became a permanent institution at Loyola after the adoption of $ a constitution and the election of officers. Kind enough to offer his services, Mr. Lawler of the Faculty, was Moderator. He gave lectures throughout the year on theory, construction, motors and other associated subjects. During the year the club made visits to airship manufacturing concerns and received educational lectures from officials of these concerns. The membership of the club is limited, and only Juniors and Seniors are eligible. The organization has made excellent progress in this, its initial year, and is expected to keep pace with aviation and become a firmly established institution at Loyola. ■x -« S vi_ =- , ui [ 94 ] The Loyola Orchestra fulfilled its many engagements with real credit to the school. One of the biggest engagements of the year was the Building Campaign Banquet held at the Elite Cafe. At Father Sullivan ' s request the boys appeared and under the direction of Prof. Ferdinand Wismer furnished a much enjoyed musical program. The Orchestra has also been the guest of many parish churches and has received much praise for its etiorts in helping with the entertainments. The Knights of Columbus have invited our Orchestra to appear at their clubhouse both for College debates and club receptions. At the school play Seven Keys to Baldfilate the orchestra furnished the music between the acts, adding much enjoyment to the entertainment. Altogether the orchestra has completed a very successful year. I Vj Wl. k. ' MIUr.— m, ' r 95 1 EL C A Ml NO Prologue SEVEN KEYS TO BALDPATE The Loyola High School Dramatic Society began its successful existence about three years ago. It proposes as its end the study of elocution and the improvement of its members in dramatic art. Ever since its foundation the Society has annually produced one or more plays in such a manner as to win the praise and secure the patronage of a wide circle of friends. It is hardly necessary to recall the success of Seven Keys to Baldpate, which was pre- sented by the students this year as their annual play. The entire production was entertaining in plot and delightful in enactment. The play, though a melodramatic comedy, was of sufficient scope to test the talent of the student actors. The situations that arose were sometimes dramatic enough to test the mettle of any amateur, especially that of a high school student. The entire play was aptly fitted for the actors, both inj nter- f ' -V y j it: hicVi i , ' ' l kh ssM 96 EL CAMINO Jet One pretation and originality. Seldom has a play been put on by the students r which has reached such a standard of perfection as was found in this. The lead in the play, William O ' Meara, in the part of the young novelist, capably enacted his part with a neatness and zest that speaks well of his talent. The part demanded a great deal of action, since it ran through the entire play, and for proper handling called on his best efforts. A naturalness, not frequently found in an amateur, distinguished his entire performance. Diff icult as was the role of the crippled hermit. Earl Reedy in the part mastered difficulties of posture which gave to his enactment the weird note which was struck in the play. His voice seemed to roll out under the hunch of his shoulders with a funereal air, adding to the grotesqucness of the part. His work was strong and impressive. The character of Jim Cargan, the crooked mayor, was an ample test for the ability of Vincent Downey. He gave a splendid interpretation of the role, which required a subtle craftiness to carry out preconceived designs. The ' Xc- ' Jt [ 97 ] EL CAMINO Act Two part was far from being temperate, but was one which had to vascillate with rise and fall of crooked plans. Behind the quiet dignity of the mayor stood an ambitious soul hoping to gather for itself fruits of evil principles. i lL ' The quaint old rustic with his drawl was pleasingly enacted by Charles Hessler. His voice, walk and exposition of a homely philosophy all went to make up the success of the part. The other characters in the play were commendably handled by the stu- dents. In several instances the dramatic was touched by the acting of the players. At no time in the play was the action slow or retarded by faults which often appear in the production of a play by a group of high school students. The ability to faithfully interpret character and the spontaneous endeavor to do the utmost, which marked every character in the part, and the guidance of the competent hand of Mr. Pecarovich, the director, makes this _o n I latest success of the students of Loyola not only a mark of perfection but also •J, 1 a presaging of the success of future plays which the students will produce. — r [ 98 1 2k I ir ll w f.

THE STAFF You have heard us applaud the actors with well-merited bravos; you have i heard us sing the virtues of a most successful play, but come with us for a few moments behind the scenes and see who pulls the strings which draw the Deus ex Machina. The wheels, you know, must go around, as the boys who supply the motive power never appear before the curtain to receive their meed of applause. Old Chris was there, of course, a stage face in himself. Without Chris, the scenes would have remained glued to the floor. Chris is a permanent fixture at the Windsor and the smoke of a good cigar will always soothe his agitated nerves. Our heartfelt thanks are due to the entire staff, through whose untiring efforts and unselfish labor the protluction met with such overwhelming success. j ' . jm m.ifMB. ilu. ) ( 99 BOYS ' WEEK Some one has said that he who Hkes boys has probably a daily sympathy with them; and to be in sympathy with the mind you propose to influence is at once indispensable, and will enable you in a great degree to succeed in influencing it. This sympathy was certamly in evidence during Boys ' Week in Los Angeles, when the business and civic leaders placed the American Boy on the top of the world. Boys from all the High Schools in the city took over for a day the reins of many activities. A number of Loyola High School students received the honor of filling many high positions in the city govern- ment. William O ' Meara was appointed assistant chief of police; Arthur Houser, city public defender; Arthur Wright, judge of the Superior Court, Department 40; Vincent Downey, judge of the Superior Court, Department 41; Louis Werts, judge of the Municipal Court, and Joseph Di Muro, presi- dent of the City Council. The business men of the city have been as enthu- siastic for Boys ' Week as the civic leaders. An insight into business methods, they claim, is just as esential m the life of the growing boy as a knowledge of civic affairs. Three members of the Senior class, John McNicholas, Pierce Powell, and Leo Ratigan, enjoyed a very interesting experience when they spent a day giving Desmond ' s the once over. The occasion was on Industrial Day of Boys ' Week, and the above mentioned department store acted in the role of host. In the morning each boy had a movie taken of himself and then was assigned to a special department. After getting a line on the dif- ferent phases of the business, the boys adjourned to the Peacock Room in the Alexandria Hotel, where luncheon was served. A speaker had been prviously appointed from every school represented, and during luncheon each one said a few words about his own school. The Hon. Joseph Scott was the speaker of the day, so you can judge that the Loyola delegation was perfectly at home. 1? - - ' i - 100 S s R. O. T. a J A A i o FRANCIS L. O ' CONNOR Mil or RICHARD A.

Cooiicy STAFF As a result of the Great War, the United States learned a most valuable lesson — that of preparedness, not necessarily in men, but in officers who alone can teach Military Science and Tactics. Accordingly, the War Department instituted the R. O. T. C. or Reserved Officers Training Corps, to accomplish this important step in preparedness. This training factor was introduced into Loyola in 1919. Although there was a paucity of students to fill the ranks as cadets, our predecessors worked with a will and as a result we have this splendid Unit of which we arc so proud. During the nine years intervening between its establishment and its pres- ent status, much has been accomplished. The High School student body has been doubled and as a consequence, the R. O. T. C. has swelled its ranks to twice its original number. In 1922, Major Wyman, Ret. U. S. A., took over the Instructorship of Mili- tary Science and Tactics. That same year .saw the appointment of Sergeant Mencfce, D. E. M. L., as his aide. These two instructors, intimately familiar •j Nwith both the theory and practice of warfare, have in a few years made Loy- j pwola ' s R. O. T. C. the subject of much favorable comment. In all public ap- pearances, notably that of Armistice Day, they have acquitted themselves with all possible honors. m } w . w- f 103 ] CAMINO FRANCIS J. PARRISH Captiun, Company B ROBERT A.

Von der Ahe, Captain of Company A, who won great credit both for himself and Loyola by his masterful speech. The Annual Federal Inspection was held by Lieutenant Colonel Wadill. The entire day of February 24th was spent in the inspection and examination of the different groups of the Unit. The Inspecting Officer expressed his pleas- ure with the progress made since his last visit. At the beginning of the year great preparations were made to make the -Staff of the R. O. T. C. of Loyola High School the most efficient in the city. Francis L. O ' Connor was appointed Cadet Major. Major O ' Connor had two seasons at Camp and was the Officer that led Company B to victory last year - -. s ' It the closing competition. Kf ' Richard A. Walsh was chosen as Adjutant as a result of his three years training in Headquarters Company, where he held the positions of Clerk, Sergeant Major and Warrant Officer. r.y - ' — — - - Q %n } I 105 1 31 riinsFir- AINO MILTON W.

Lieutenant Downey is one of the few men who has risen to the top through every rank. Most of the Cadet Officers are jumped from Sergeant or Corporal to the Commission as a result of Camp service. At the close of last year one of the leaders in rifle marksmanship was Gerard L. Morris. For this reason he was picked as Range Officer and com- missioned Second Lieutenant. At the middle of the year Captain Fabian Coony was transferred from Company C, and appointed Battalion Executive Officer and Special Instructor. This was done because of Captain Coony ' s knowledge of special departments to be taught the unit prior to its inspection by Major Waddil. As Battalion Clerk and Sergeant Major the Commandant selected Frank J. Barry. Sergeant Barry succeeded Warrant Officer Leo Stilwell, who left school. RIFLE TEAM Loyola has always been represented by a strong rifle team, and the team this year has proved no exception. Graduation had depleteil these expert marksmen and practically a new team had to be developed by Sergeant Men- ) efee, Instructor of Marksmanship.

The team took a high place in the 9th Corps Area Match, scoring over almost all the schools in Southern California. It competed in the Hearst Trophy match and although the standing has not yet been announced, a high rating may be reasonably expected. RADIO AND SIGNAL CORPS The Radio and Signal Corps, organized last year, did splendid work dur- ing the year. This group, headed by Louis Werts, has delved deeply into the intricacies of radio. Mr. Blodgett tutored the group. During the year the corps prepared for the Amateur Radio Examination, and passed successfully, every member receiving special mention. The signal group has mastered the International Morse code, and i finished senders and receivers. ;hly praised for their work. In the annual Inspection they were _ fAj, I IDS I EL CAMINO Top Row: C.

These necessary adjuncts of military life have been supplied Loyola by Professor Wismer. Under his leadership the members of the Band practice daily in order to perfect themselves and do credit to their Alma Mater. Much of the acclaim accorded the Unit in its public appearances is due to the Band. Like the other organizations of the R. O. T. C, it has labored hard antl its toil has not been in vain.

In the early hour of light, When the sun is climbing, climbing. O ' er the mountain tops, combining Crystal dewdrops with the night. Hear them ringing, ringing, ringing. Calling men to holy vows. See them swinging, swinging, swinging. From the bended oaken boughs, Where the chapel for the people Is the heaven ' s star-lit steeple That ' s attuned with sounding cells To the music of the bells, Mission bells, Throbbing bells! Hear them swell in agitation. Calling out regeneration Or a destiny of Hell! How they throb, and roll, and toll. Sobbing of the melancholy goal Of the tomb And the doom. Then they peal in merry notes Fairly bursting throbbing throats In a joyous, happy rhyme. Keeping time, Swinging time. To the joy that scintillates Round a soul that intimates It has heard Welcome word. Hear the liquid, mellow tones of the bells. Mission bells. When the neophyte is kneeling at the well, Fountain well, Holy well! Hear the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells!

A passing dog diverted my attention. Oh, gee, where was I ? I retraced my steps and counted again. Each stride tells its story, one less shoe squeak before I finish. I finally reach a corner where my carefully sharp- ened pencil breaks. Of course, I am reconciled to my hard luck (I notice that this acceptance of mishaps philosophically happens in books). The English teachers instruct us in the pure English language, but there is no word in that language appropriate to a sweating, tired, self-pitying mapper. After a jour- ney to school, I resume my labors. How did the Major say to orient this map? How do I draw a corner? Hopelessly I stand with pencil in mouth. A blithe freshman passes. He may whistle with the happiness of Spring but I am squelched with the pyramided thoughts of long blocks before me. Hello, bub, whacher doin ' ? says a passing ditch digger as he ruins a precise angle by jogging my arm with a rough knee. I mentally consign him to the purgatory of a supper of burnt steak and half-baked potatoes as I patiently explain that we are making a horizontal elevator and I am building the cage. The block looks short as I painstakingly count stride on stride. A mosquito buzzes in my ear; I slap at it. Down goes my board into the mud; a nice job of copying for me; another nickel for map paper. Eventually, I approach the finish. My final corner is here on one line, there on the other — two inches apart. As I juggle the points until them meet — they meet, I think: It ' ll soon be done. A feeling of relief comes over me, a feeling I can ' t resist. Now I ' m an everlasting pacifist, for as long as we have peace, there ' s no use for military maps. BOB AND JERRY A road wearied Universal Car crept through the portal of the campus, rounded the drive and came to a shuddering stop on the High School side of our edifice. No doubt the yellow, topless, weak-fendered, wobbly-wheeled lizzie felt honored in finding refuge on our campus, for it emitted a chok- ing sigh which to the driver and passenger meant that life would not be re- stored to said road hound without a great physical effort and some applica- tion of machinists ' skill.

No longer do they have to ride the crowded trolley, no more is it necessary for them to bum a ride, for, due to their efforts during vacation, they were able to accumulate a fortune, so great, in fact, that they were able in one payment to procure the Buggy and are now in a position to foster it until next June. This is, indeed, a study in loss and gain, for it used to cost them twenty-four cents to ride the trolley and now seventy cents to ilrive the machine. o=a[ ][=o YE PLAYE Seven by the clock.

In company with an ornate mahogany desk, he quite filled the holy of holies which some of his hirelings in their weaker moments referred to as the office. He was a man whose slightest wish was law; yet todav he was drumming his pudgy fingers on the shiny desk top. Before him lay the inevitable telegram. Each time he reread it his fingers beat a tatoo of increasing violence. The mahogany desk seemed oblivious to everything but its own solidity. Had it crumpled under the strain, its owner might have been somewhat appeased. As it was, he fumed at his terrified secretary, and ordered her to send in Smith. It gave Simpson pleasure to see Smith enter at once. Probably Tony Sarg experiences a smiilar emotion as he watches his marionettes respond to his practiced fingers. Smith stood very respectfully in front of his employer and waited. He was patently a laboratory man and was quite proud of the fact that he alone had been able to first see the possibilities in sawdust. Simpson glared at him and roared, What seems to be the trouble on the plantations? He was always a man of few words. His competitors ascribed this to a meager vocabulary, but then competitors will do anything. Smith replied in the tone of a man asking for a raise, It is a parasite, sir, that has suddenly appeared in the fields all over the world. It seems to feed on tobacco alone, and is practically indestructible. None of our gases or sprays seem to affect it. I very much fear, sir, that we are in for it. Simpson looked worried. That a situation should arise which his men could not handle had never occurred to him. He was treed, and tried to hide his impotence behind a blustering, If you can ' t get rid of those bugs I shall have to dispense with your services. If I can get rid of those bugs, Smith answered, I shall be a national hero, and I ' ll save you the trouble. He left, feeling very well satisfied with his bravery. A week later the outlook was serious. The tobacco parasites had invaded the fields in droves, and their tremendous appetites soon ruined the largest plantations. Cancerous brown patches, constantly increasing in size, proved beyond a doubt that there would be no tobacco crop that year. Warehoused stores of tobacco kept the factories going on schedule for some time, and the tobacco interests were careful to keep unfavorable infor- mation from the daily newspapers and magazines. j ' ' But as the store diminished, the manufacturers realized that prices must go up. Simpson called a meeting, and in a haze of priceless cigar smoke, fifty tobacco magnates decided that cigarettes must sell for two cents each — the package was abolished. They watched the storm of criticism that followed this announcement with the boundless self- satisfaction experienced only by those who control the output of an indispensable product. Six months more witnessed the beginning of actual f amine. Not enough fresh tobacco was left to pay for the cost of finding it. Habitual smokers were forced to stand in line for their daily allowance of nicotine. Cigars were no longer manufactured because they took too much tobacco. A fad of swearing off swept the country, and ■ A ■V vl_ ■ __ r4i, - ; uidy 124 lasted as long as most tads. The lamine tightened. Cigarettes were made shorter and smoketl longer, ( ' igarette stubs disappeared Irom the streets, and snipe hunting dropped into tile limlio (it professions outhiwed by eireiMiistanees. Inside a year cigarettes had become almost rare. People upon whom the habit rested lightly soon gave up the pleasure of smoking and turned to chewing gum. Hut lor the thousands ol veritalile liends, the deprivation was more serious. They became beasts of prey. A prosperous looking business man turned down a dimlv lighted street for a smoke. There was danger on the main street — pickpockets had soon adapted their art to the snatching of lighted cigarettes. He lit the priceless luxury, took a single breath of smoke, then carefully extinguished the tip and returneil the cigarette to his pocket. A disheveled, slinking creature sidled up to him and whispered hoarsely, For gawd ' s sake, Mister, gimme a drag! The man refused. There was a flash of white steel and a few moments later the erstwhile prosperous-looking business man was carried to the morgue. The coroner lound in his coat pocket a cigarette the thief hatl overlooked. He attached it. Matters grew worse, ot course. Threating mobs began to harass John Simpson. Mob reason was new to the magnate; he had them dependent upon his tobacco; there was no more tobacco: ergo, he was to blame! He fled to Florida, and narrowly escaped violent death twice on the way. He registered at a small hotel in Tampa. Just before daybreak an ugly mob broke down the door of his room, and as he leaped through the window bullets sang by his ears. He ran for hours aimlessly, then flung himself down, exhausted, in a deserted tobacco field. As he sat there, shivering with fear and the cold, a bug crawled up his spine. His thoughts turned to the bug — the bug saw to that. He removed his shirt and coralled the parasite. Placing it in the palm of his hand, he noticed that the creature looked harmless enough. Its little sides rose and tell with its measured breathing. Simpson pondered. To assist his pondering he lighted his last cigar. With the first pufT ot Iragrant smoke the busr gave a remarkably ambitious shiver lor such a small creature anil lay still, . mazed, the man inspected his enemy more closely. There could be no doubt — the bug was dead! Simpson gave an exultant yell and raced toward town. Breathlessly, he confided his great discovery to the first man he met. The native listenet! thoughtfully, scratched his bristly chin, and ventured, (ireat stull. but where II you get the tobacco smoke to kill em with.- The shock was too much. Simpson did not live to see the bugs die a natural death from starvation within a week after his burial. . ' ' jiiiii :: i it 125 ] EL CAMINO v v -- • 1.

The day has passed when her students must constantly look to the future for the fulfillment of their hopes along athletic lines. This f ' ' ' ' i very year has carried witli P it an athletic program that placed Loyola at the very top of the major High Schools of Los Angeles. In football, Loyola held her own with Poly, Lin- coln, and other city cham- pions, while in baseball and COACHES Ml liiintctt Sum Dagley basketball, a glance at the scores will show Loyola superior to them all. Suc- cess for the teams bespeaks successful coaches. Loyola ' s Big Three, Larry Devlin, Sam Dagley, and Bill Bar- nett, supplemented a n d abetted by Loyola ' s ■ Big Little Three, Chuck Rob- erts, Clarence Greenough, and Bill Schmidt, were as successful in their work as the most exact athletic criiic could demand. Larry, of course, leads them all. It ' marvelous arountl, lKlin.in.aj ' pcii us ue y is by a football injury of. ' JL LIS tnem ail. it is . the way he gets mdicapped as he 7 yii . [127 EL C A M I N O V. Roberts C. GreenoHg W . Sihnihll long ago. If Larry had the full use of his limbs to work with that keen, analytical football intellect which he possesses, Loyola would have a second Rockne for a coach. However, genial Sam, possessing no less than Larry a fine, keen football mind, supplies Larry with the motive power to run the team, and the two together make as splendid a combination as one can find in any High School in this good old football crazy U. S. A. of ours. But do not forget long, lanky, athletic Bill Barnett, effervescent Bill, just bubbling over vibrant Loyola spirit, who coached the varsity basketball team through a splendid schedule. Bill ' s first year at Loyola has more than met with suc- cess. He came out of the North to expound his doctrine of basketball, and his pleasing personality, added to his coaching ability, immediately established him as a great favorite among the students. Our hats are off to Bill for the i spendid manner in which he handled his assignments the first year at Loyola. His ability to instruct others in the ideas and plays of his own is shown by the manner in which he took over the basketball squad, replete with material, but very green; a squad new to him and which in two short weeks he taught an entirely new system. Imbued with Bill ' s spirit, the squad displayed a brand of teamwork that was sufficiently strong to put to rout the fastest high schools teams in this vicinity. Roberts, Greenough, and Schmidt, former oyola High School stars, coached the weight teams. Their patience and sc ■r W. .il . Hi ' ■ I 128 ] f i VV- untiring efforts quickly gained the confidence of their charges, with the pleas- ing results that their efforts to turn out winning combinations were crowned with eminent success. These three young coaches built up a wealth of material for future varsity teams. Taking practically green material, they instilled into the fertile minds of their fast stepping charges that great fighting spirit which, together with a love for true sportsmanship, always makes for success. How would the teams be able to function if they did not have the demon managers to look after things. There was Mautz, for instance; tall and rangy, whose business ability was evident to all as he arranged a nice schedule of games for the varsity teams. Booker and Mautz made a splendid combination, and they showed the student body the best schedule of games that the High School varsity ever played. They are already on the run for next season ' s games and, beginning with the pigskin menu, will provide the hungry fans with an athletic feast fit for the gods. Please do not forget the assistant man- agers. Towels are an absolute necessity for the perspiring athlete, and who but an assistant manager is at hand with the much prized article. When the M. M , — .-- 129 ) victorious team is on the field receiving the plaudits of the multitude, the poor assistant manager is in the club house performing the thousand and one little duties that make for the comfort and efficiency of his starring brother on the field. All hail to Euge, Tarver. Dunkle, and Michel! They certainly did their bit to keep Loyola High School on the athletic map. The Loyola High cheer leaders, Lincoln, R. Houser, and Michel, acquitted themselves nobly in the no-gentle-art of keeping the student body spirit at a fever heat during the assemblies and games. Big Chief Comache Lincoln always had an abundant supply of pep on hand, ready for instant application. He had the ability to instill this same pep into others, and when he stood out there behind the meg, the welkin rang with rahs and cheers for Loyola ' s conquering heroes. R. Houser ' s pounding, smashing spirit worked up enthu- siasm in a fever heat, and the lethargic crowds soon had their hats in the air, rarin ' and pulling for Loyola to win. Bob was always one jump ahead of his rival and was Johnny on the spot with the yell when it was least expected, but where it would blast with withering and deadly effect. Houser is capable and full of pep and spirit, and withal very loyal to Loyola. With this year ' s experience under his belt he will be ready to step out next year as the premier leader of them all. Mayor Mike of Santa Monica was the third member of this trio of demon shouters. Mike tuned up his voice every day by trying to outroar the Pacific Ocean as it dashed upon the shores of his native village. And I am not so sure but that he out-roared the ocean, for his well trained basso was a mighty inspiration to the assembled students. All Mike had to do was open his mouth and a mighty roar, carrying with it the spirit that means success to the team, rolled out over the campus. Mike was there with the zip, and together with Lincoln and Houser made up as nifty a trio of yell-leaders as one would wish to see or, for that matter, hear. The three will be back next year to do their stuff. „, [ 130 I EL CAMINO Ctiptiiin HiUt ' kjns. Center M , VARSITY In the fall of 1928, Loyola High School was represented by a football team that went through the season to attain an enviable record and earn for itself a name that stands for clean play and sportsmanship. Meeting the toughest competition in the southland, the eleven downed team after team and suffered but one defeat. Loyola 31 Ventura 6 Running on the field for the first game of the season, Loyola ' s great foot- ball machine was to fight its all set best and show the many interested fans present that it was as great a team, if not greater than the undefeated j u g - gernaut of the pre- vious season. Starting with the first toot of the referee ' s whis- tle, Coach Dev- men rushed Captain-Elect Chapman, TacJfle forward and in- side of five min- utes were over for the first touch- down of the game. Both teams then fought hard for supremacy, with the Cubs getting the edge. In the second quarter, as a result of a long pass, the Loyolans crossed the goal for their lU J— j i . 132 EL CAMINO second score. Ventura then received and after a series of line drives managed to put the pigskin across for their only touchdown. The trv for extra point failed. The second half saw a much im- proved Loyola team come on the field, so pepjK-d up, that it easily tore the op- posing line into shreds antt was able to gain at will. Long runs, completed passes, and spectacular tackles were fre- quent. The game ended with Loyola gaining a 31 to 6 victory. Sarver, Powers and McDonald scored Anicstov. Qttiiyta Jit - J for the winners and displayed real foot- ball talent by their long runs and great offensive playing. The line held up wonderfully well under the oilers ' heavy bucking attack, and completely routed the heavy forward wall repre- senting Ventura. No player fought harder than Captain Hawkins, who time after time threw an opposing back for a large loss. The playing of Chap- man and Rastanchury was considered a feature of the game, for it was through their great defensive playing that Loyola won so handily. I 133 ] a i EL CAMINO Etige, Guard Loyola Lincoln For the first time in its history Loyola met Lincoln High and held that major High School to a scoreless tie. Loyola was superior in all departments of the game but lacked a final punch to put the ball over. At the very start Sarver, with wonder- ful assistance from the entire fighting team, twisted and ran his way down the field to the 10-yard line, when Lincoln bucked up and held. From then until the end of the game the play see-sawed back and forth with neither team being able to push the pigskin across. It was a well played and extremely hard fought contest which demonstrated that Loyola is just as strong as any of the major city high schools. Loyola 1 Oneonta Due to misunderstanding of One- onta ' s managers, a scheduled game was forfeited by the Academy. Larry Dev- lin ' s Cubs were all primed for this con- test and the news greatly disappointed them. ' i i_ M [ 134 EL C A Ml NO Loyola 12 Santa Barbara 7 Journeying to Santa Barbara, the Cubs met and defeated a team which gave them as tough competition as any Loy- ohi squad ever facetl. Santa Barbara High School for four long cjuarters bat- tled and fought the Los Angeles team in vain. Time after time they sent their heavy backfield men plunging against the much smaller Loyola line, and time after time the Loyola line prevented those huge players from gaining. Fight- ing as they had never fought before, Powers. Hiilj H V ODonnetl, Pull ,-, 1 Larry Devlin ' s warriors overpowered the Dons to the tune of 12-7. When the game opened the heavy Northern team started an attack which carried the pigskin straight down the field to the scoring zone. Here the Cubs braced and fought their opponents on even terms. In the second quarter Loyola, aided by their great fighting spirit, pushed the ball over twice. They then grew over-confident and permitted the Dons to cross their goal. At half time, the score stood 12 to 7. I 1 tr In the third period play was again re- J j f Wlllik t — _ J 135 sumed and for two successive periods both teams fought their hardest with no scores by either team. The conflict ended with the Loyola boys rejoicing over the close victory. Powers and Meade were the heroes of the battle, each turning in long spectac- ular runs for scores. Euge, Sargent and Clougherty were the mainstays of the Loyola line, and they possessed the great fighting spirit needed to win the game. Captain Hawkins played his usual steady game and was the outstand- ing lineman of the battle. McNiclioliis. Cctilcr Loyola 19 David Starr Jordan A fighting group of men representing David Starr Jordan High School of Watts, succeeded in holding the non-de- feated Loyola Cubs to a 19-0 score. Coach Devlin, for the first time this sea- son, started his shock troops against the villagers, but they were unable to hold their plucky opponents. When the second quarter was under way the first squad was sent into the fray and imme- diately pushed the ball over for a touch- down. The kick for extra point failed and at half time the score stood 6-0.

Loyola 19 San Dieco Army and Na v Academy Smarting under the defeat adminis- tered by the Cubs last year and greatly strengthened by a determination to avenge that defeat, the strong San Diego Army and Navy Academy team came up from its barracks to meet and upset Loyola. But as play progressed, the voung soldier boys began to realize that ll [ 137 ] L CAMINO Ok i : u , H,iig t. Half it took more than determination to bring home the bacon. Loyola had quickly scored and was dangerously close to another. For an entire half both teams battled on even terms. Passes were intercepted, power plays were stopped and end runners were droppec in their tracks. As a consequence, the first two periods were punting affairs with many long spirals gaining ground for each team. The second half spelled clefeat and utter rout for the visitors when a fight- ing Loyola aggregation gained three well earned touchdowns. Hannon and Powers were the back field dynamite in the Loyola attack, while on the line McNicholas, Bas- tanchury and Seibert easily handled the Cadets, throwing them many times for huge losses. Loyola 47 Cathedral In their annual game with Cathedral High School, Coach Devlin ' s gridders displayed real football and completely overwhelmed their much lighter oppo- ' ' Vi . vi_ [ 138 ] EL CAMINO nents by a 47 to score. Coach Phee ' s Cathedral Cohorts were unable to hold the well trained ball carriers of the Cub team. During the hr t live minutes of play the Ixill was carrietl over for a touch- down, the result of a long completed pass. From then on until the final whistle Loyola scored at will.

In very short order, due to .w- A : .,ii... M. [ 139 EL CAMINO blocked kick, Coach Devlin ' s boys had another score. From then until half time both teams settled down, neither being able to score, although Loyola was continually on the offensive. In the second half another touchdown was made by the Loyolans.

Miiiitz, Gtuinl Loyola St. Augustine 25 Traveling to San Diego and boasting of a wonderful undefeated record the over-confident Cubs met defeat at the hands of the powerful St. Augustine ' s team. At the very beginning Loyola was on the defensive and though they fought hard were unable to score. However, the team that played at San Diego was not that great scoring ma- chine which swept through two seasons without a defeat.

The competition will be much stiffer, but the outlook is that next year ' s variety will be able to take anybody in its class, plus a few outsiders. • } This season ' s schedule looked plenty tough when it was first announced, and tough it was; but the local boys played in such a bang up manner that all comers were trodden underfoot. It is not difficult to see why Coach Larry is figuring on next year as a banner one. At least it should be the best for some time to come. Several of the veteran star performers will be back to do their bit for Alma Mater, and with a handsome crop of new luminaries from the weight teams to assist in the bone-crushing, we may well look forward to one of those miracle teams that you read about but seldom see. c : - - : .4 .... J A I HI 1 LIGHTWEIGHTS Loyola Hollywood 19 Hollywood High School is always noted for its strong lightweight foot- ball team. With this in mind, a fighting Loyola lightweight squad traveled to the Hollywood High School field and succeeded in holding their much more experienced opponents to a 19 to score. No matter how much fight a team may have it also must have teamwork and this is what Loyola lacked. After a terrific contest, the players returned to their Venice Street home a sadder but wiser squad. Loyola 13 Beverly Hills After many practice sessions, Coach Tilli Parisi felt entirely satisfied with the functioning of his team, and a contest was held with Beverly Hills second string varsity. From beginning to end Loyola was fighting mad. ' Time after time they plunged, shoved and beat against the opposing line with the result that they carried home a great 13 to victory.

Ramsey snared a long completetl pass to make the only tally for the losers. Lo ()i.A Georc;e Washington 6 Although outplaying their opponents in every department of the game a blocked punt, recovered by Washington, spelled ciefeat for the Lightweights. The forwartl wall of Loyola showed great fight ami speed with Lieb, Schneider and Del Valle starring, while Captain McLaughlm and Lenahan were the backfield stars. Loyola Bakersfield 24 After traveling over one hundred and twenty miles Loyola ' s Lightweight eleven encountered the strongest and best cla.ss B pigskin team in California, Bakersfield High. The oil and farm town raises husky men and these same oilers flattened out our Cubs with neatness and dispatch. From the very beginning by means of strong power plays through center and guard, Bakersfield scored 24 points while our boys never had a chance to score. Loyola 6 Franklin Captain McLaughlin, aided by his fighting warriors, won a tough battle from the Franklin High Class B team on Franklin field by the score of 6 to 0, This game was the turning point for Loyola as all remaining games were ' victories. Loyola 19 Beverly Hills In a return game with Beverly Hills High School the Lightweights, aided by the stellar playing of McLaughlin, Chase, Donnelly and Lieb, overpowered their heavier opponents 19 to 0. Loyola 7 Villanova 7 Meeting Villanova Varsity in their first home game the Lightweights fought and held a tough bunch of men outweighing them thirty pounds to the man. Both teams were able to score but once and each converted, con- sequently, the game ended with a 7-7 tie.

There were but two of last year ' s lettermen on the squad. With but little preliminary training, the boys met the powerful Santa Monica High School team and suffered a crushing defeat. After New Year the squad settled down to real work and it was not long before Coach Barnett had a smooth running basketball machine in opera- tion. Johnny Intlekofer captained the team through a most successful season. The season ' s play shows eight victories and four defeats. Two of these defeats were at the hands of Santa Monica High School. This record was made possible by the splendid coaching of Bill Barnett.

Our hoys were no match for the powerful quintet from the Hay District. The game was played during the Christmas Holidays at the Municipal Auditorium at Ocean Park. Loyola 25 Ventura 28 The second game saw a much im- proved team battling the fast squad from Ventura High School. The teams were so evenly matched that a five-min- ute overtime period was necessary to decide the contest. During the extra session the Northerners chalked up three digits to win the contest. Loyola 34 Jordan 15 The battle with David Starr Jordan opened up a winning streak for the Cubs. The visitors had a fast rangy outfit, but were no match, for Coach ' Barnett had his team functioning in splendid form. The guarding of Green- ough and Clougherty featuretl the last half. Loyola 28 Oneonta 9 Oneonta Military Academy was the next victim for the Preps, who were now in mid-season form. It was the rough- est game seen on the home court for many a moon. Oneonta was the heavi- est team engaged by the Preps this year and after a scrappy afternoon, went [ H7 ] EL C AMI NO home with the short end of the en- gagement. Loyola 11 Harding 7 For tussle number five the Cubs en- gaged the fast quintet from Harding High School. The Cubs started oflf with a rush and overwhelmed the Harding charges with an avalanche of baskets. The Preps showed unlimited power and were undisputed masters of the court. The bench-warmers had their innings in this game and every man on the squad was given a chance to display his wares. Coach Barnett thus showed the critics that he had plenty of good reserve strength. Loyola 28 L. A. J. S. 8 The Preps remained in the win col- umn by downing a promising young bunch of casaba tossers representing the Los Angeles Junior Seminary. The reg- ulars retired from the game early and again gave the subs a chance to run up a l arge score. Powers captured high point honors by scoring eight markers. Loyola 29 Beverly Hills 16 Beverly Hills was the next visitor to the Loyola court and hence the next vic- tim. The boys from the exclusive city put up a good fight, but were stopped by the accurate passing and quick form- ing defense of the Preps. The Cubs gained a lead early and kept it through- out the contest. i (r Hi [ 148 ] EL C A Ml NO Loyola 28 Cathedral 16 Cathedral High School ' s team bokily entered the local arena witli tiie inten- tion of annihilating the Cubs; hut as usual they left for home with their same short end of the score. This was one of the best games of the year for the Cubs. Cathcilral had a good team and early in tiie game tiireatened tlie defense of Loy- ola. However, Loyola ' s casaba machine functioned very smoothly ami held the enemy in check at all times. Intlekofer was high point man. Loyola 31 L. A. J. S. 16 In a return match with the Los An- geles Junior Seminary history repeated itself, as the Preps emerged victorious a second time. The subs did most of the work. Lincoln was high point man. Loyola 25 Polytechnic 32 On February 13, the Cubs met the powerful city league team, Los Angeles Polytechnic High School. The game was played on the home court before a large crowd. The Cubs put up a good battle and held their opponents during the first half, making point for point with the Mechanics. Rut in the second iialf they weakened before the strong reserve strength of Poly. This game broke the winning streak which the Preps held during the greater part of the sea son. Lincoln was high point man with ten points. Hillery and Eastman, forwards, ditl most of the work for the visitors. V-.- ' ■ jjitu r 119 1 EL CAMINO ■-■ fi% ::--: ' ::0 Standing -.Coach W. Barnett. C.

Loyola 26 Cathedral 20 The Cubs traveled to the North Broadway court for a return game with ' . Cathedral and there again defeated Coach Phees ' quintet. During the first part of the game the lead see-sawed back and forth, but as the Cubs grew more familiar with their surroundings, their lead began to increase. The great work of Captain Intlekofer and O ' Donnell featured the game. O ' Donnell led the scorers with a great record of sixteen digits. Loyola 24 Santa Monica 30 In the final game of the season Loyola was handed a second set-back by the powerful Bay League champs. However, the champs were forced to battle all the way for every point they gained. Samohi again had Forney and Athor as their outstanding players, while the offensive drive of Lincoln and the fighting spirit of O ' Donnell featured for the Cubs. ' ■ _,_- , .

The record established was in keeping with the great show- ing of teams of previous years. Schmidt, a former member of the Prep team, coached the squad and developed a smooth running and smart quintet. The squad played ten games losing but three. Two of their three defeats, however, were avenged before the season was over. The squad consisted of Captain McLaughlin, Manager Del Valle. Bean, Montagne, Phillips and Sullivan. The Schedule L. A.

Still, we lost again to one of the best teams in the city lightweight league. Loyola 26, Cathedral 17. The Lighties next played Cathedral High School ' s lightweight team as a preliminary to the Varsity game between the two schools. In this game the team hit its stride and easily won. Cathedral had a fast, well trained team but was completely outclassed by the Cubs. Loyola 16, Immaculate Heart 15. This was the closest game played by the 130 ' s during the whole year. They managed to nose out their opponents in the last few minutes of play by one point. Loyola 18, L. A. J. S. 15. On February 5th, the Lightweights again played host to the team from the Los Angeles Junior Seminary, but this time the outcome was quite different. The squad was well organized, the forwards ran off their plays smoothly and the guards kept up their good defense. Loyola 20, Pacific Military Academy 22. In the next tussle the Light- weights were nosed out by the Pacific Military Academy ' s quintet. The game was a hard fought battle. Both teams showed great strength on offense and defense. The Lighties were outscored but not outplayed. Loyola 6, Pacific Military Academy 3. A week later the Cubs again met the Pacific Military Academy ' s team and avenged themselves for their former defeat. On account of great defensive work neither team was able to try many shots at the basket. Loyola 26, Cathedral 18. The squad traveled to the North Broadway court of Cathedral High School for the next game and Cathedral was again trounced. Loyola 31, Urban Military Academy 14.

However, the next game g ave quite a jolt to the old percentage column as Santa Monica High School won by a 22 to 10 score. Next Southwestern and St. John ' s Military Academy were defeated. In the final game of the season the Seminarians were sent home on the short end of a 21 to 12 score. tH fnu 1 153 1 EL CAMINO Suiiifling: W . Von tier .-ihe. L. Deegiin, Coach C. Oice iotig i, L.

The first game of the season was lost to St. John ' s. After that loss the team started off with a bang and played nine games losing only two. Probably the most exciting of all the games was played with the young Seminarians. With one minute left to play and the score 21 to 19 in favor of the visitors, two baskets were sunk just before the gun sounded.

Captain Lefty Powers played his usual brand of errorless ball on the initial bag with Robert Litschi, a sophomore covering second. Short stop was effectively handled by the veteran Bill Engle, while Frank Schneider, played spectacular ball on the hot corner. ( The pitching duties were expertly handled by Intlekofer, McNeff, a new u ' south-paw at Loyola, and Montagne, of last year ' s juniors. Amestoy did practically all the catching. McDonald, Lane and Chase handled the out- fielding positions in fine style. Loyola 8 Fremont 4 The first game of the season was played with the strong and clever 1 Fremont squad.

Bill Engle starred at the plate, getting two safe, blows out of three. Loyola 2 Santa Monica 3 The .second game of the season was played at the beach with Santa Monica as the opponents. The Cubs received a heart breaking setback. Mc- Neflf pitcheil a good brand of ball, allowing only five hits. All the bad news came in the fifth wiicn Samohi got 2 runs and 3 hits. Each team had an equal amount of hits and errors. Loyola 5 Pasadena 3 A The thirtl battle was with Pasadena High at Pasadena and resulted in the second victory of the season for the Loyola Cubs. Loyola 4 Polytechnic 2 In the first game of the home season, the Cubs defeated the Poly High club. The Cubs were out-hit two to one, but as a result of good fielding and making their own blows count they turned in an impressive victory. Intlekofer did the pitching, allowing nine hits and fanning six.

McNeff pitched good ball for the Preps, but received poor support. The local aggregation simply could not hit the ball. Loyola 8 Venice 2 The sixth game of the season was held on the home diamond with Venice High School. The Cubs easily defeated the boys from Venice. Powers starred with the stick, getting three hits for five. The Preps scored six runs in the first inning. Loyola 2 Lincoln A return game with Lincoln on the home diamond gave the Cubs revenge for their previous loss to the same team. Intlekofer, the boy prodigy from Iowa, allowed the visitors only three hits and held them scoreless. Loyola 11 Santa Monica 1 In a return game with Santa Monica High School the Cubs made up for their previous defeat. From the very first inning the Cubs started a battmg attack which thoroughly routed the visitors. Intlekofer pitched shut-out ball allowing the Samohi boys but one unearned run. Schneider starred at the plate with three hits out of three times up. n (WVi m i fM, k.

Montagne started on the rubber for Loyola but was later relieved by McNeft who finished the game in im- pressive style.

SECOND TEAM BASEBALL Although facing the best Class B teams in the city, Larry Devlin ' s Juniors closed their season with but one defeat. The first game of the season was played on March 12, with Manual Arts High School. Although Manual had a three-run lead from the first until the nimh inning. Loyola managed to collect five hits and wm the game by a 5 to 3 score. Daniels pitched for Loyola and turned in a good game, allowing only five scattered hits. On March 14, the Juniors traveled to Franklin and defeated their second team by a 11 to 5 score. Atkinson starred at the plate for Loyola, getting four hits in as many tries. Montague was the winning pitcher, allowing but six hits. Hollywood was the next victim, losmg by a 19 to 13 score. Although each team made numerous errors, the Juniors managed to outhit the movie stars and walk off with the game. i : ' uai. r 160 ] A return game was lielil with Manual on April 11, and after ten hard and close innings the Juniors came home victors by a 4 to 3 score. Santa Monica was next on the list and held the )uni jrs for eight innings, ut weakened in the last, and thereby lost the ball game. The final score was Loyola, 4; Santa Monica, 3. Robert E. Lee proved easy for the Juniors, who won 15 to 2. Every mem- ber on the squad was given a chance to show his ability in this game and all played well. Poly also proved easy on April 19, losing to Loyola by a 12 to 3 count. Daniels did the chucking for Loyola and also starred at the plate. By winning the last of the three-game series with Manual, the Juniors captured the series. At the end of nine thrilling innings the s core was 6 to 5. Los Angeles High School was last on the schedule and ruined an other- wise perfect season antl a record without a single defeat. At the end of a tough nine-inning game the score read: Los Angeles H.

This game closed a most successful season for the Seconil team, with eight victories and but one defeat. o=ani=o MANANA My friend, you have heard of the town of Yawn, On the banks of the River Slow, Where blooms the Waitawhile flower fair, Where the Sometimeorother scents the air, And the .soft Goeasies grow.

What ' s that we hear, mosquitoes? No, they use to be but now they are the third team of the High School; average weight about 110 pounds. Speaking of weight, when it comes to fighting to win a ball game they are worth their weight in wild cats. Coach Greenough took over the squad at the beginning of the season and after two weeks of intensive prelim- inary training turned out a team that made the remarkable record of nine victories and only five defeats. The great success of the nine was due to the splendid pitching of Kelly and May, whose curves and slants were very ably handled by Wahler, Armendariz, the short-stopper played remarkable ball and gives every evidence of becoming a future star on the Varsity. The two little pepper boxes, Jenal brothers, kept the team on its toes with much lively chatter. Victories were chalked up against such formidable teams as Nor- mandy Club, St. John ' s Military Academy, St. Agnes, St. Thomas and Robert E. Lee Military Academy. ■ - i « ) [ 162 ] W 4  MiinoT Sports EL CAMINO . Tiiri ' cr, P. Esciitlcro. j. Spuyl{s, P. Pawcll . . MiCcirthy. J. ilel An TENNIS Loyola High School was represented this year by a tennis team for the first time in its history. The members of the squad made a very formidable appearance and in their meets with city league teams succeeded in winning all their games. The squad consisted of five members, four of whom were seniors. Although most of the members are graduating, enough interest has been aroused in the game to make tennis a strong branch of campus sports. John McCarthy captained the squad and Jim Tarver was manager. McCarthy and Escudero were picked to represent Loyola in the Southern California High School tournament to be held at Santa Monica this summer. The Season: For the first match, the squad traveled to Fremont High School. It ended in a i-i tie. McCarthy and Escudero won in the singles, Tarver and McCarthy in the doubles. The Cubs won from Roosevelt High 5 to 2. McCarthy and Escudero again won in the singles. Sparks and Powell; Traver and McCarthy won the doubles. - - i ■ — - [ 164 INDOOR BASEBALL Much interest has been aroused in the class indoor baseball. All the games have been hotly contested and all classes are striving their mightiest for first place honors. The boys got away to a great start when the American and National leagues were organized. Captains were elected in each class and all the rooms have been turning out one hundred per cent in support of their representatives. There is a host of good material in the ranks, and the race to date is a fiercely waged one m both leagues. The world series, the pinnacle of the indoor season, is bound to be as exciting and interesting this year as in any previous season. As the schedule is still running, it would be hazardous to predict the world champions. Dark horses, you know, are always coming up out of the distance to upset the most careful calculations. The first half of the season came to a close Friday, November 23. In the National League, 4-B finished the season with an undefeated record, having won twelve games and tied one. 3-C, in the American League, had to fight all along for its title. With an invincible pitcher like Vusich, no class was licensed to defeat the boys from 3-C. After four hard fought games, 3-C finally emerged the victors in the world series, winning two games to 4-B ' s one, the remaming game being a tie. The first game of the series was plenty close, with 3-C winning 2 to 1. 4-B couldn ' t seem to hit the ball like they had been doing throughout the whole season. However, they showed some of their form in the following game, when they whitewashed 3-C, 11 to 0. The third game was a tie, 4 to 4, and was featured by brilliant playing in the infield. It was nip and tuck through the entire game, neither side being able to outhit the other. In the fourth game, owing to the fine exhibition of pitching by Vusich, 4-B was unable to do much scoring, with the result that 3-C won the game 6 to 3, and also the championship of the high school. r r f 165 1 BASKETBALL Noon basketball came to a glorious end with 4-A leading the Los Angeles League and 3-B winners in the Hollywood League. As the final game drew near all classes took a remarkable interest in the sport, and each made competition harder by sending well-practiced and sea- soned teams against its opponent. Each noon all four courts were in constant use, while throngs of interested spectators lined the outer edges. All honors for close competition went to the Los Angeles League, with 4-A and 3-A constantly fighting for supremacy. Not until the last game, when 4-A downed 3-A in a hectic battle, was the champion team definitely known. Although not finishing in such a close manner as their competitive league, Hollywood ' s teams always played wonderful and interesting ball, and numer- ous well spirited and hard fought games were witnessed. Though meeting very tough competition from 4-B. the team representing 3-B emerged as undis- puted champions in this league.

Ky 4- ' n_ (li i Li t mi - [ 166 ) r I mnr ifl BOXINCi With the closing of tlic baseball season, the Friday noon boxing matches engaged the attention of the High School student body. Boxing is very popu- lar at Loyola, and the contests arranged by matchmaker A. Houser drew capacity houses. As a form of physical exercise boxing is of undeniable value. Not only are the muscles of the arms, legs, and back developed, but the vari- ous positions assumed in attack and defense bring into play all of those move- ments which serve to increase the agility of the boxer, make him light on his feet and develop control of his body. Moreover, he receives training in mental alertness as he practices the art of hitting without getting hit. Boxing is excellent for mental discipline, and it also has a part in the development of character, for under right conditions it brings out the finest qualities of sports- manship — courage, honesty, and the ability to be a good loser and to control the temper in all situations.

DiMoM) The rain luul ceased, aiul now a heavy misl hovered over the (Jolhain C ' ity. The sun. invisible in the gray haze, was just rising. Down the wet sidewalk Officer Pat O ' Donnel! slowly paced his beat, twirling his nightstick and whistling old Irish tunes. What cared he if his feet were soaking? He liked wet weather. What cared — O ' Donnell awoke with a start. What was this aheail of him. ' ' A red open roadster was parkctl a lew yards to the front, but that was not all. In it was the tigure of a man, sitting ot course, but leaning with bent head on the steering wheel. An arrow was im- bedded in his heart through the back. O ' DonncU drew closer and gasped with amaze- ment. An arrow? In New York City? Up in headquarters Jim Devaney, detective, was tidying his desk. Completing that task, he now eagerly lookeil forward to his breakfa,st, to be brought in soon. Lifting the large cup to his mouth, |ini gulped down its contents. What a savory taste it possessed this morning? . teeling ot content invigorated him as he set the cup down. BiiffllfL Br-r-ring! The telephone! Hello! Yes. Fifth and Shore? An arrow? O.K. Be right down Devaney smashed down the receiver, grabbed a piece of toast, and hurried downstairs, yanking his hat from the rack as he left the room. A car loaded with detectives awaited him, and he had hardly boarded it when out it swung into the boulevard with a warning siren and a heavy purr of the motor. Down the boulevard through signals and stock-still traffic, past hundreds of pedestrians, till finally the machine stopped by a little red roadster, around which was now gathered a fairly large crowd. Out of the car jumped the detectives. Shouldering their way through the crowds, they arrived at the roadster in which the body of a man half sat and half lay. Devaney ■rave it a poke. It was approaching the state of Rigor Mortis. Blood, nearly drv, stained the back of his coat. Cameras were brought to the scene, and pictures were taken at different angles. The arrow was soon extracted, and the body taken to the morgue. Back at headquarters Dick Brady, fingerprint expert, studied the arrow. He noticed that it was of unusual thickness, probably a special — Brady bent forward. Yes — a finger- print! He sprinkled a bit of black dust on it. Ah! every line stood out in perfect detail, the right thumb of a man! Brady stepped over to the wall wherein were contained the records ot all the jjast crimes committed in that city. He carefully scrutinized page after page of fingerprints. Times flies. Seven books through already. Back to year 1920 now. Thinks he ' d better proceed? He thought so! Brady drew out another volume. First page? No. Second page? — There, under a picture of convict No. 1639 named , rcher TuUey, was a fingerprint identical in every detail with the one on the arrow. So! Could it be that .Archer Tulley, once a convict, but now a business man, had turned from the straight path again? It must be so, for here was evidence. Tulley had once been a burglar who was accustomed to leave his trade mark, an arrow, ina wall of the house he had robbed. He had been sentenced to serve a ten-year sentence in Sing Sing, but was parold because of good conduct. He next took up insurance and became a success in the financial world. The expert got up from his desk and entered another room. Detectives were chatting, and the air was filled with humid smoke from their cigars. .All heads turned to him as he entered. Any luck? asked one. ' , [ 169 EL C A Ml NO Yes, answered Brady, Archer Tulley, ex-convict, is our man. Get a warrant for his arrest and bring him in. Archer TuUeys office faced Shore Street within a stone ' s throw (or perhaps an arrow ' s shot) of the murder scene; just another hnk in the dragnet of circumstantial evidence. Detective Devaney led a group of officials into the Brooks Building, up one flight, a turn to the right, and there before them was a door on which was printed in big, black letters: Archer M. Tulley, Bonds and Insurance. Entrance. The men all looked at each other, then Devaney opened the door. There before him sat Archer Tulley. With a smile on his face, Tulley asked, What can I do for you, gentlemen? Plenty, ' replied Devaney. Come on, the rack ' s up. Get your hat and coat and take a little ride with us down to the police station. And with that he drew out his revolver, as did the others. Tulley was astonish. No , doubt about that. He rose from the desk, a wave of anger sweeping over his face. What ' s the meaning of this? I turned straight long ago and have kept that way ever since. Yes? replied Devaney, How about the arrow murder of Nick Portolo this morn- ing? Come on, no back talk. Tulley, with a discouraged look, stood erect and extended his right arm to be hand- cuffed. Devaney in the lead the group walked briskly out of the building. Two months later, in a well lighted court room, a massive gentleman with thin grey hair arose and announced: People of the State of New York versus Archer M. Tulley. You are charged with the murder of one Nicholas A. Portolo. What do you plead? Tulley arose with a look of defiance and folded his arms. A death-like silence hovered over the room as the spectators awaited his decision. Not guilty! Tuiley ' s voice fairly rumbled through the hall. A ripple of murmur broke out and the bailiff rapped for order. You will appear at court March 5th. Officer O ' Donnell slowly spaced his beat. It wasn ' t right. The trial was over now, and Tulley was declared guilty of murder. Evidence? O ' Donnell snorted with disgust. Bah! He knew when a man was guilty. The big policeman swung into Short Street, the scene of the murder. A store window caught his eye. It read: HENRY FERRAN NOVELTIES Ah! A new display tonight.

It was from Ferran ' s quarters above. Right 9, left 13, right 4. Squawk! O ' Donnell ' s eyes blinked once. It was a parrot. Where did the parrot hear those words, in the bird store or — was Ferran a little careless? BONG, BONG, BONG, BONG, BONG, BONG, BONG, BONG, Eight o ' clock! His watch was over. O ' Donnell hurried down the street. Detectives were lounging lazily as Officer O ' Donnell threw open the door and strode over to the warrant clerk ' s desk. a warrant: Henry Ferran, 519 Shore Street. ' Lo, Murphy! I wanna swear out Yes, down by the murder scene. At this the detectives grew attentive. O ' Donnell related the past incident to them. |l, % [ 170 EL A vA I n endinj; with, 1 may Ix- right, and I may be wronj , but I ' m yonna look into this. I sti maintain that Archie Tullcy is innocent! This last was met with a loud guffaw, but they took the parrot incident, seriously, and Devancy with a tew others decided to investigate. Nine o ' clock. Four men briskly walk past Henry Ferran ' s novelty shop and en ter an adjacent staircase. Up it they trudge as the boards creak in the darkness. Upon arrival at the head of the stairs. Detective Devaney steps to the Iront and knocks heavily on the door bearing the name of Henry Ferran. Awk! Dead men bear no tales! Right 9, lelt 15, right 4. Who goes there? No noise but the parrot. Devaney draws out a master key. In a trice the door is opened, and the parrot resumes his tirade. A light is switched on. The parrot, dancing around in his cage, emits a steady How of elTusive language. The officials ' eagle eyes scan the room. Nothing unusual here! O ' Donnell ' s eyes light upon a lone picture on the wail. Ah, just as he suspected, a safe! The detectives gather around him as he removes the picture. Now he turns the dial to the right till he reaches the 9th calibration. Now the left, thirteen — back four — O ' DonncU turns the knob, an instant of suspense and the heavy safe door swings open. What a sight! Heaps of jewels, stacks of money, and a small box in a corner. O ' Donnell reaches for the box and draws it out. It is locked. A small pass key furnished by Daveney opens it. Aha! A small unlabeled bottle, probably poison. A wax thumb, a — Devaney flashes around, turns out the light. Footsteps — the door opens cautiously, a hand reaches out, turns on the light — My God! The man steps back as if to make exit. Tries to speak — can ' t. His face is ghastly pale; the detectives guns cover him. What ' s this, a hold up? he finally ventures. Devaney snatches ofT the man ' s false moustache. Yes, Spider Lee, alias Henry Ferran. replied Devaney. Permit me to try these attractive bracelets on you. Don ' t try to back out or explain. I-I-what ' s the idea? whi mpered the other. What did I do? My name ain ' t Spider Lee! Never even heard of him! At this the parrot screeched and repeated the little slogan on dead men and tale bearing. Well, my friend, suavely asked Devaney, Where do you suppose the bird learnt that dead men bear no tales? It may be, my friend, that you will not be telling tales in a few months. Come, the chief of police has invited you to an informal tea party. Let ' s go. You may be sure that Spider Lee confessed. He told how Portolo and he had been allied crooks. How they had fallen out, Portolo swearing revenge by squealing to the police. How Spider Lee, an inventor on the side, had constructed an apparatus by which he could control any magnetized moving objects through the use of selenium cells. How he had inserted a magnet in the arrow sbaft. How, to make it appear as if the arrow had come from Tulley ' s office, he had shot the arrow towards Tulley ' s, then reversed it in its tracks by flashing the selenium cells on Portolo. Finally, how the poisoned arrow had imbedded itself firmly in Portolo ' s back. Captain Patrick O ' Donne of Archer M. Tulley, back in struck up an old Irish tunc. on his lace. O ' Donnell was satisfied. 1 nonchalantly twirled his nightstick as he passed the office business again. O ' Donnell swerved into Shore Street and He passed a very vacant novelty shop.

Y si en ello se interesan, lo hacen con razon ; si se busca el motive de este interes, se puede decir que lo encontramos en las palabras del insigne historiador, el Dr. Herbert E. Bolton, el cual en el prefacio de su obra Regiones Fronterizas Espanolas (Spanish Borderlands) emite mas o rnenos las siguientes ideas. El que recorre la costa de California desde la ciudad de San Fran- cisco en el norte hasta San Diego en el sur, y se dirige despues al este, pasando por los estados de Arizona, Nuevo Mexico y Texas, hasta llegar al Golfo de Mexico, vera aiin ahora por dondequiera que vaya el sello de la civilizacion espanola. El idioma de Castilla se oye todavia en gran parte de nuestro territorio, y aun en algunos lugares es casi la linica lengua que se habla. El territorio donde en otro tiempo dominaban o Espana o Mexico esta dividido en estados que Uevan nombres espanoles. Muchisimos rios, monies y sierras, centenares de pueblos y de ciudades todavia se llaman como se llamaban hace cien anos. Muy notable tambien es la arquitectura que vemos por dondequiera que uno va, porque los edificios modernos imitan el estilo que llamamos colonial. ICuantas ruinas no vemos de las antiguas misiones donde los misioneros predicaban a los indios; cuantas misiones, capillas e iglesias hay donde aun actualmente se practica el culto divino! Se sigue desprendiendo de las torres el sonido de las campanas, que fundidas en los hornos de la peninsula iberica, llevan impresas no solo las armas de los antiguos reyes sino tambien los nombres de los santos a quienes los Conquistadores daban culto. Todo lo que se refiere a la cultura espanola hiere la imaginacion de nuestros escritores. Por eso, la literatura de las regiones fronterizas ha tomado el colorido de los tiempos de aquellos heroes. Agregariamos por ultimo que este amor a las costumbres castellanas no es un amor pasajero, sino que por el contrario crece y se aumenta cada dia. La Nueva Inglaterra se dice puritana, Nueva York se dice holandesa, Nueva Orleans se llama francesa por el influjo que tuvieron en ellas los puritanos, holandeses y franceses, y asi decimos del Suroeste de los Estados Unidos que todavia es espaiiol, por la dominacion espanola que duro en el, por tantos anos. Por consiguiente juste es que el grupo de estudiantes de la Escuela Superior de Loyola aprecie el idioma espanol y la cultura espanola. 1 h «i] [ 172 1 Tm ■ i- ' ' r- EL CAMIN.O ' THE INDIVIDUAL: HIS RK HTS AND DUTIES UNDER THE CONSTITUTION Kakl E. Von dkk Aiie The principles embodiecl in this great dociuncnt. The Constitution of the United States of America, have conie from the experiences and governmental methods of the people of the ages. It is not, properly speaking, an original composition of any one body of men nor is it the outcome of any one epoch. No, it is something more, something better than that. Neither docs it stand in historical isolation, for it rests on old and tried principles; principles laboriously worked out through the long ages of Constitutional strug- gle, principles that are absolutely necessary as the lountlation of any well-organized society. Foremost amongst these time honored principles are the rights of the Individual which are as sacred, and must be kept as sacred, as the Constitution itself: sacred because they embody the right to law — the right to own property — the right to liberty and life — the right to freedom of conscience. It contains the right to law. For, since the first pilgrim set foot on the New England shores, the Americans have accepted the tradition that law is the will of the people and not the order of a sovereign, and therefore ecjuality before the law is the very soul of our belief. All men are created cc]ual, declared the colonists on Independence day of 1776, and Equality before the law thundered the Minute Men at Lexington and Concord. Rich Man. Poor Man, Capitalist or Laborer, everyone, regardless ot wealth, position or prestige, may appeal to the courts and be assured of a just hearing. It contains the right to own property. For down through the centuries, the desire to own property is defined as one of the deepest aspirations of men. To-day, every Citizen is guaranteed the ownership of his land and chattels, and may do with them whatsoever he may wish, provided that the use he makes of them is not detrimental to the general welfare. Old as this principle may be to no man is it more sacred than to the American Citizen. The right to libertv and life is our most priceless heritage. The common business II ii and callings of life, the ordinary trades and pursuits which are innocent in themselves, V and have been followed in all communities from time immemorial, must be free in this - ' country to all alike and upon the same terms. This right implies the right to move, to go and come, to live where one pleases, to be free! Cilorious Liberty, coming at a time when the Colonists had despaired! Immemorial Liberty, cherished by the men of all races since the beginning of time! Transcendent Liberty, achieving a greater significance [Txa beneath the skies of America than anywhere else in the world. The freedom of conscience is our most cherished right. Since the beginning of time, races have struggled against tyrannical rulers for the freedom of conscience. In defense of this principle was the Magna Carta written, in defense of this principle did the Colonists give their lives on the plains of Boston. The freedom of speech, the freedom of the press, the right to freely hold religious beliefs and to adore the living Triune God, are bricks all in that great temple of freedom which the Constitution has erected tor the ' consciences of her people. As in any well-organized society, there are certain duties and inescapable obligations , which must be borne equally by every American Citizen. In order that the life of this J D . mm ? ' - ' -..4f .. j: jm I 173 1 EL C AMI NO country might endure it is necessary that every Citizen carry out to the full those duties which fall to his lot in order that the Government of this country might remain a Gov- ernment Of the people, for the people, and by the people, and not a government of the select few. Here in America for every man touched with nobility, for every man touched with the spirit of our institutions, social service, service to the entire Country, service to one ' s fellow Citizens, is the high law of duty. Our Constitution is a failure unless it develops in the manhood of to-day a true sense of that duty. A good Citizenry consists in a thorough knowledge of the Constitution. A Nation unschooled in Constitutional liberty would be at a loss to determine how to settle some of the ever-changing dangers that threaten the peace and prosperity of the Government. Great dangers have appeared upon the horizon threatening the peace and prosperity of the country, but they have been quelled. In the not too far distant future, other dangers seeiTi to appear, like spectres bidding us to take warning and be prepared. To allay these threatening spectres, should they ever become realities, we must have an educated Citi- zenry. National thought and national greatness are not something different from individual thought and individual greatness. If we would have national thought and national great- ness, we must first have individual thought and individual greatness. Teach the boys and girls of to-day their duty to the men and women who have gone before them, and who have struggled and died for their country; inculcate in them a knowledge of the foundations of their government and you have sown the seed for the national thought and the national greatness of tomorrow. The second duty for good Citizenship is the observance of the laws enacted under the Constitution. All through the middle ages, the observance of the sovereign rulers laws was mandatory upon the subjects, they had little or no voice in the matter of legis- lation. But in these United States it is an accepted tradition that law is the will of the people and not the order of a sovereign. Ought not, then, the American Citizen respect the law which he himself has made. ' ' The Constitution is the safeguard of our Country, and an educated Citizenry is the safeguard of the Constitution. There are rights in that Constitution: the right to law, the right to own property, the right to liberty and life, and the right to freedom of con science. There are duties incumbent upon the Citizen founded purely upon those rights given in that same Constitution. Rights of the Individual and Duties of the Individual can never be separated. It is by educat ing the Citizens on their two great prerogatives that will render our country safe from invasion, safe from insurrection, and thus America will ever hold her head high above the Nations of the world, proud to perpetuate her sacred trust— OPPORTUNITY! EQUALITY! JUSTICE— TO ALL. 17-t ] EL CAMINO m OBITER DICTUM Fact is stranger than fiction. If one were to read in a work of fiction tliat third and fourth year Latin students had summoned courage and ambi- tion to plunge into the depths of originaHty and stand before critical audiences and debate a modern question in a defunct language, one might rightly pro- nounce the author ' s creative imaginative powers as rather fertile, if not ex- traordinarily developed. But when one were confidentially informed that this mythical production had launched out into concrete reality, what, I ask, may not be his sensations of astonishment and bewilderment.? Yes, just ordinary third and fourth high Latin students have attempted this unique feat and have met with unique success. E.xpressions of admiration have flown from the mystified, and these youthful orators are now enjoying the feeling of an accomplishment unheard of in the annals of scholarly attainments. The first institution to witness the debate was Roosevelt High School. No Honesti Judices were at hand to make the boys tremble in the apprehension that they might not be able to recall the proper tense or construction. It was a no decision afl air, but thanks to the attention of the audiences the debate was an unqualified success. Next, with a feeling of greater security, the teams appeared before the Puellae pui- cherrimae of St. Agnes Academy, Pasadena. A very select audience awaited them there, made up of faculty and students of exceptional talent. The boys blushed in their modesty as they took their stand on the rostrum. The ques- tion read: Resolved, That Latin Has Greater Cultural Value Than Modern Languages. The affirmative was upheld by J. Di Muro and R. Wilson, while the negative was represented by T. Houser and R. Walsh. The audience went up in the air ith Francis Montgomery in his orinial Latin essay — De Arte Volandi. r. A I I ! 1 DE ARTE VOLANDI Multa per saecula desiderabat homo volare per aerem et sic imitare aves. Narrat quaedam tabula, Graecum quondam sibi fecisse alas cereas quibus super Mare Aegaeum speravit in patriam suam redire. Icarus ejus filius, nimis ardens, et mandata patris con- temnens, nimis ad solem appropinquavit, et vicinia rapidi solis moUivit ceras vinculaque pennarum, et Icarus in profundum mare immersus est. Archimedes quoque alas construxit, quae etsi inutiles, tamen eo conatu hominis desiderium innatum volare indicatum est. Ad finen ultimi saeculi aliqui homines, diversis in mundi partibus, volatus etsi perbreves feliciter egerunt. Tamen non adhuc eveniebat volatus ad modum avis. Americani duo, post paucos annos tecerunt quod nuUus homo unquam poterat facere, nempe per potestatem mechanicam in aerem profundum volare. Erat anno millesimo nongentessimo tertio, loco Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, cum homo nomine Wright hoc mirum confecit. Et quasi subito, nova ars tarn celeriter incepta, mentes hominum arripuit et novum aevum peperit. Totus mundus hunc hominem audacem laudabat et praevidit quos fructus proventuros esse ex hac inventione mirabili. Statim, quod erat impossibile possibile factum est. Tria stadia possunt in evolutione hujus mirabilis artis indicari. Primum experi- mentale inceptum a fratribus Wright, et sicut omnia nova lente et caute a populo erat acceptatum. Merus aspectus aeroplani erat magnum spectaculum, sed nuUus habuit neque animum neque occasio nem in eo volatum tentandi. Tempore recentis belli haec ars progressa est ad secundum stadium , cum omnes nationes inter se conabantur supremum situm terra aereque possidere. Machinae, arte I humana perficiebantur, velocitas augebatur, et formae mutabanter. Exinde sequebatur quod multi homines, hoc novo opere inducti sunt ad patriae servitium. Et post aliquot menses exertitii hae ingentes aeris machinae fiebant communes, et ubique in caelo visibiles erant. Turn novitas ejus praesentiae removata est, sed tamen adhuc cautus erat homo ad volatum tentandum. Deinde post terminum magni belli, venit Tertium stadium nampe stailium civile in quo omnia aeroplana quibus milites in hello usi sunt, obsoleta fiebant, et nuUius valoris ad usum commerciale. Et igitur nova aeroplana constructa sunt ad usum modernum apta, quae artem volandi ad perfectionem hodiernam duxerunt. Tamen non obstante progressu ubique in hac arte facto, ab antiquis tentata et a modernis ad culmen profecta, adhuc multa inaudita et mirabili a, visa et scripta erunt. Francis ].
