31 tt Lieut. Mark W. Jenkins, II His friends hailed him as Nip,” and those friends were many in- deed, for Mark was one whom everyone liked, not after a character analysis, or anything so methodical, but immediately, spontaneously. Quite a few of the Class of ’44 of Loyola College attended Loyola High School with Mark and there formed an attachment for him, because of his effervescent, sparkling humor and gentlemanly conduct. This affection endured, even grew, throughout our first year of college, warmed by a wide smile under a Green and Grey beanie. After his first year at Loyola College, however, Mark joined the Naval Air Corps, passing through Pensacola Air Base, and on to Corpus Christi, Texas, where he received his wings but a short time ago, graduating high in his class. This proficiency priveleged him to transfer to the Marine Air Corps and he was transferred to Jackson- ville, Florida, for further training. But somehow, it was not God’s will that Mark would live to fight for those concepts which he held most dear. And so, the first member of our class is gone; Yet not gone, because his friends, and lovers of gallantry the world over, will forever cherish his memory in their hearts. Page Twenty-Nine

THE TWENTY-THIRD PSALM The Lord is my Shepherd; l shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures : He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul : He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the . valley of the shadow of death, 1 will fear no evil; for Thou art with me, Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies ' . Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life : and 1 will dwell in the House of the Lord forever. Ps. xxiii-iv It was God’s will that the Class of January, 1944 should not remain intact to fulfill the richness of its promise, a promise that was indeed bright in the scholastic, the extra-curricular, and the athletic aspects of College life. Every member showed such willingness and talent that, had the war not prevented their exercise, would have established this class as a memorable one in Loyola annals. However, diamonds shone forth, men with exceptional talents and capabilities which were bound to out. There was Ham” Molz, former editor of the Greyhound, and Bill (Shakespeare) Bavis, both wonder- ful debators and actors and consistent honor students, who now grace the campus of Mt. St. Mary’s in the Navy V-12 program. Jim Ball, one of the most promising track prospects to be at Loyola in years; Sam Brocato, Middle Atlantic States intercollegiate wrestling champion ; Leon Greenbaum, aquatic ace; and Babe” Schwallenberg, star first- baseman of Loyola’s nine, now wear the blue of the Navy Air Corps. There are many others: Jack Letting, former Loyola pitcher; Jim Mann, Lacrosse, football and basketball stalwart; Luke Karst, fast man on the cinder path; and many more who could and should be mentioned here; but, because of their numbers and the size of this testimonial, we must confine ourselves to the fervent wish that these, and all our forme r classmates, may enjoy God-speed” on the road to victory.
