FOREWCJRD HIS is a turbulent World of unrest that We, the youth of America, are tacing. It is the gauntlet flung in our faces, the challenge to our training, carrying with it the fullness of moral desolation, economic struggle, and spiritual hardship. We are not blinded by the vapours ot a luxuriant, pagan civilization. True, we are cognizant ot the so-called prog- ress in the arts and sciences, but We look at this advancement in the light of a mind illumined with the Wisdom and culture oi the ancients, the men who have gone before us. And more than ever do we realize our rich inheritance in Holy Mother Church, our birthright which in these uncertain times, is the only unshake- able pillar of our lives. In I-ler we place a faith that cannot but be rich in the spiritual and intellectual nourishment consequently reaped and so necessary to us in an otherwise impoverished lite. Our young lives, our college careers have been immeasurably enriched by the glorious tradition and culture which has so characterized our education, and aided in forming us into real Catholic gentlemen. Because We feel that these days have been our happiest, because our college days have been so truittul in many Ways, because We know that We may perhaps recapture something of the flavor, something of the vitality of our beloved hill -these are the things We have striven to record-lite at Loyola. It per- haps We have not had the space to tell more profusely ot this existence, at least We have caught the spirit ot it, the color and vibrancy of the University. More important than that We have portrayed the Catholic student, the Loyola man, and how he is cast in that mould which marks him as the graduate ot our University.
