SENIOMS George Allan Broadbeck, B.S. Chemists’ Club, .’i-4: librarian, 4: Class Basketball. 1-2-3-4. Behold, dear reader, before you the replica of a man, well-wisher, hard-worker, and friend, who ar- rived in our midst one September just four short years ago. Most of us pursue one specialty and call it our “hobby”. But this prospective Leon- ardo de Vinci seems to be an exception. Not only is he efficient as a physicist, chemist, and biol- ogist, but he has attacked the philosophical field as well — and rather effectively too; add to this his numerous extra-curricular activities and you are beginning to form a correct conception of our friend Allan. We wish you the best of luck, Allan, and say that our only regret is that we must part so soon. K Joseph John Broening, Jr., B.S. Che.r Leader, 4; Chemists’ Club, 3-4; Class Foot- ball. 1-2; Class Basketball, 1-2-3-4. Joe is one of those lads endowed with a super- saturation of energy that is ever seeking some avenue of escape. Fortunately for Joe — and others as well — Loyola offers an abundance of out- lets for such vitality. In the annual class meets he added to his team’s total by a splendid brand of high jumping and running. None of us can forget that .memorable Soph Class Nite when Joe exhibited his fistic wares to the delight of the on- lookers and the discomfiture of his opponent. Too, his antics as Cheer Leader will long be re- membered. Joe is to seek his fortune in the realm of Chemistry, and indeed, his lectures before the Chemists’ Club prove him well fitted for his pro- fession.

SENIORS Dominic Thomas Battaglia, B.S. Chemists’ Club. -1 ; Qiiantitative liepi ' esentative, 4; Class Football, 2; Class Basketball, 2. Just as Dominic demonstrates his ability as a life- guard at one of our fashionable resorts, so too, during his sojourn at Loyola has he proved his tvorth as a student. Such an inquiring mind is his, that ' twas a rare class indeed unenlivened by his persistent queries. In the field of chemistry, Tom” is eminent. It was no rare occurrence to find him explaining some chemical intricacy to a group about him, or to hear him debate on some delicate scientific point. But his seriousness in his pursuit of science has not marred his sense of humor — for he was always the wit. Fare thee well, Dominic, your record bodes well for a bright and happy future. James A. Blair, A.B. !sn tallty, 1-2-3-4: Vlgll.ance Committee, 2; History Academy, 2: Class Basketball, 1-2-3. Here we have one of the prime favorites of our venerable number. There’s some indefinable (pialitv about Jim that makes him indispensable to us. For four years while we struggled on, and each succeeding year took its deadly toll of our number, Jim’s very presence was somehow reassuring. In anything the class or the college has undertaken, he has always been “right there”, ready and willing to offer his tvholehearted sup- port and cooperation — and always in a self-effac- ing manner. Kind and genernus to a fault, Jim is a real country gentleman” hailing from Ran- dallstown. We bid him farewell, and we know that whatever his goal he will put his best foot forward” in reaching it.

SENIORS Martin Edwin Butler, A.B. Class Treasurer, 3; Executive Committee Junior Prom; The Greyhound”, 1-2-3-4; Managing- Editor. 3; Green and Gray , 4; Debating, 1-2; History Academy, 2-3-4. Martin is one of those lads ever on the “qui vive”. These past four years he has figured prominently in practically every activity of im- portance, and in all his efforts he has displayed loyalty to the principles and traditions of Loyola and of his class. More than this, he can attain a “tired business man’’ frown that would drive Babbitt into a choler of envy. ’Tis rumored, that out Mt. Washington way, a certain young ladies’ academy could not conduct an affair with- out the debonair Martin in the role of usher. In his studies he has kept near the “top”, as his honors testify. His phenomenal patience, good- naturedness, and seemingly insatiable capacity for absorbing the quips and jibes of his classmates, have earned him a host of friends. Norman John Cameron, A.B. Tlie Greyhound”, 1-2-3-4; Prize Debate, 3; Green and Gray (Art Editor), 1-2-3-4; D -bating, 1-2-3-4; History Academy, 2-3-4; Sodality, 1-2-3-4. Next let us present a versatile gentleman indeed — Norman J. For four years, the art work of Loy- ola — Yearbook, “The Greyhound”, posters, and so on “ad infinitum” — has depended for its very ex- istence upon his facile pen. And, with absolute- ly no hesitancy, we say that his achievements will long serve as a model for future “Art Editors” of the “Green and Gray”. “Many a time and oft” did Loyola entrust her reputation on the rostrum to Norman, and time and time again was her fame augmented. Too, as a ivriter, “Gus” has few equals. And, finally, inscribed in every “Posting of Marks” the name of Cameron invariably was found “with honors”. Norman, though the years may sever our pleasant connections, your mem- ory will remain ever fresh with us. “Auf wieder- sehen”.
