JOHN EDWARD DOYLE, A. B. Assistant Manager, Basketball, ' 29. ffl vO, ERE, gentle reader, we have an ardent follower of Scholasticism and a true Peripatetic. John also embodies something of a Demosthenes, and it seems a shame that his eloquence should be hidden in the laboratory, where, we understand, John ' s future will be spent, rather than adorn- ing the Forum. This young man is the possessor of an inquiring mind, and is gifted with a knack of prying into things rather than accepting them upon superficial appearances. Such is his love of argumentation that we have often been led to wonder whether, in the absence of a discoursive antagonist, he does not argue with himself. Unquestionably John has mastered what the Solons tell us is the secret of success, tireless application and unending perseverance, which predict a bright future for our comrade. And so in parting we, his classmates, send along with him our joint and several good wishes for a bright and happy future. ‘Whose honor and whose honesty Endured all weathers.” — Winter ' s Tale.

THOMAS PETER COYLE, A. B. Football, ’26, ’27, ’28, T HERE are some people who are consciously humorous, and there are others who add to their wit by suppressing their self-consciousness. The former are selfish because the ultimate object of their mirth is their own enjoyment; while the latter are generous in that their obvious purpose is to make others forget the seriousness of life. A typical example of the former is one who laughs at his own jokes and witticisms, and to our mind the best example of the latter is Tom Coyle. Tom is not a Baltimorean, like the most of us, but on the contrary is a native of Philadelphia, which city he has forsaken for the last four years in order to pursue the flowery path of learning at Loyola. As a student, an ath- lete and an all-around good fellow he ranks above the average. Consequently, when he returns to the City of Brotherly Love, if his achievements there are of the same kind as those which for four years past have characterized his Balti- more career, we have no doubt of his future success. Brevity is the soul of wit.” — Hamlet. T wentu-eiaht

FRANCIS JOSEPH DUDLEY, Ph. B. Football, ' 25, ' 26. ' 27, ' 28; All-Maryland Basketball Team, ’27; Basketball, ’26, ' 27, ' 28, ’29; Baseball, ' 28. ERE, dear friends, is another Adonis. But do not be misled. This smooth and complacent replica restrains a boyish grin and a happy, care- free spirit, which has been the cause of many laugh-provoking pranks. Wherever there is laughter and fun, there you will find Frank Dudley. Before coming to Baltimore, Frank made an enviable reputation for him- self while playing forward on the Catholic High basketball team of Philadel- phia. In his Freshman year he began to verify all the splendid reports which preceded his arrival at Loyola, and throughout the remainder of his college career he has continued his sensational playing. When the sport editors call Duds” a star,” they treat him unfairly. Frank is a whole firmament of stars. After a most remarkable season in 1927, during which he displayed his all-around ability and leadership, he was unanimously elected to act as captain in his Junior year. But basketball is by no means his sole claim to fame. Throughout four years he has played an excellent game of football as varsity end, and has also served on the pitching staff of the baseball team. It is our fond hope, Francis, that the success which you have achieved in the game of sport may likewise be yours in the great game of life. Tis warm at ' s heart. — Coriolanus. Thirty
