HARRY JOSEPH CASEY Beneath a disheveled head of scarlet hue and above the sombre gen- tleness of an inconspicuous mingling of trousers and waistcoat beams the Jovial face of Harry the Red. It must be said of him that he is first a gentleman, then a subtle thinker, clever with the pen, a real friend, always happy, moderately fond of the more deadly of the species, not a fre- quenter of tea houses, on speaking terms with every taxi driver in the city and an arch-enemy of the inventor of work. His favorite im- pressions will better serve to acquaint the reader with our henna haired school-mate than anything we might write. Read them and conclude as you will. With immovable firmness, he maintains that taxis are useful as well as ornamental, that Shakespeare was a fit subject for Mt. Hope, when he said “Neither a borrower nor a lender be,” that Erin Go Braugh should be the national slogan, that woman’s place is in the home as long as the home isn’t his, and the house should be mortgaged on an ace in the hole, and lastly that “To wait and not be tired by waiting” is one quality his friends must possess. The attainment of a mark in the stubble fields of changing careers must be Harry’s. It cannot be denied him, for “He has the grace too rare in ever} clime Of being without alloy of fop or beau A finished gentleman from top to toe.” COLLEGE 1921 11

CHARLES LEO COOLAHAN During the Scholastic course no student has worked more diligently for the honor of the class and for the glory of Loyola than Chaises. Even in his first year “Coolie” as the professor affectionately termed him, placed us in the lime-light by artistically delivering “Danny Deever.” This was his start as a public speaker, and during the High School course, Charlie won medals innumerable by his ability as an orator. Coolie is also bent on the literary and it is not uncommon to be approached by him when one is deeply engrossed in turf topics and queried as to the relative advantages of a man reading Newman or Chester Gump while pursuing his college course. No Shakespearean cast was ever complete at Loyola without the name of Coolahan, and his every interpretation was a memorable credit to tireless efforts. Under his guiding influence the Debating Society has had many suc- cessful seasons. How then can we expect anything but eminent success from this man who has always proved himself to be a diligent student, appealing speaker, and an unselfish worker. “Nothing is lost on him who sees With an eye that genius gave ; For him there’s ston, in every breeze And a picture in every wave.” 1S2I 13
