Text from Pages 1 - 216 of the 1942 volume:

WE’VE A STORY TO TELL Regis College, atop a promontory commanding a sweeping panorama of scenic splendor. Floating over the rolling hills, pleasant valleys, and mirrors of blue, ring out the carillon chimes from the stone casements of the Norman Tower. ’Neath the shadow of that majestic spire nestles the Grotto, the Court of Our Lady, bound by patterned garden paths, down which slowly pace stately forms, black-robed and black-veiled — the Sisters of Saint Joseph. Patience robed in humility, endurance veiled with charity, they brought to this summit, piety, learning, and understanding. Here was founded in 1927 a college for the higher education of young women, named in honor of Mother Mary Regis, Founder of the Boston Congregation. oung in years, old in traditions, Regis is permeated with the spirit and ideals nurtured through the centuries by its Founders. Three hundred years ago in Le Puy, the capital of the ancient province of Velay in France, a dauntless band of women established the Order of the Sisters of St. Joseph, under the guidance of Henry de Maupas, Bishop of that city and pupil of St. Vincent de Paul, and the Reverend John Peter Medaille ' , S.J., the famous apostle of Velay and successor to the missionary held of St. John Francis Regis. spiring to the virtues of St. Joseph, patron of labor and model of contemplative souls, those devoted women 0i l egib College at IS eston, dedicated their lives to the amelioration of the distress- ful conditions of the peasants and serfs. The growing community founded an additional house at Lyons in 1696 . Into those convents of peace and service came the terror of the French Revolution. Many nuns and abbesses in refusing to swear to the Civil Constitution were vic- tims of “La Belle Guillotine.” The artistic masterpiece, “The Supreme Sacrihee” has caught their tremendous, inspiring piety. Out of the chaos emerged those who had escaped martyrdom to begin the task of reorganization under Mother Saint John Fontbonne. nscathed by the lawlessness of war, the order sent six pioneers from Lyons, at the invitation of Bishop John Rosati of St. Louis, to endure the rigors of a strange land, to found their first establishment in America at Carondo- let, a small French village on the outskirts of St. Louis. tom the nucleus of Carondolet, the organization has expanded to every corner of the United States. With Sister Mary Regis, as Superior, the Boston congregation was instituted in 1873 - 3 n the establishment of Regis College came the ful- fillment of a cherished dream, a reality of ideals, and principles firmly rooted in Weston soil, flowering into beauty of architecture in buildings and in souls. jWaSSattMisfits, Junf, I Wt of tlje jWt Senior Annual at S egisf In Type and Pictures A blare of trumpets ... hails the stately ... measured procession . . .of the Chancellors of Wisdom. . . .

Scientists, with a view to bet- tering humanity from the gene to the system, study Biology, Chem- istry, Physics, and Mathematics; and, social workers, with titanic ambitions to reform society, ana- lyze social cases, work in the set- tlement districts, and offer their efforts to the masses of the world. Add to a specialized pursuit of these courses, three years of sur- vey of Literature, and four of Religious and Philosophic Cours- es, the requirements for a white hound hood. Father Murray Presides with Father Harrington 24 ] PRE-MED. Young Florence Nightingales follow the hrst bent of their fan- cies in this undergraduate medical school. If their ardor is not damp- ened by endless hours in the lab- oratory and they complete the course satisfactorily, then the privilege of entering any Class A Medical School is theirs, for this course has been approved by the American Medical Association. In addition to the regular pre- scribed subjects for the A.B. course, students are required to carry advanced courses in Chem- istry, Biology, Physics, and Math- ematics and possess a reading knowledge of French and German. All this and four years more en- titles the aspirant to dressing in white, perfumed with ether, and carrying one of those mysterious, little, black bags.

For those desirous of a com- mercial living, the Secretarial Department prepares amanuenses for all professional and business men and gives courses for those of pedagogical aspirations. A fanciful office replete with all essentials puts these embryo sec- retaries in the mood for coping with all the appendages of a busi- ness house. Secretarial students spend three years learning the gays and kays of Shorthand so that 160 word speed is a common thing among Regisites. Religion, Scripture, Logic, Philosophy, Psychology, Ethics, and English are prescribed courses; and Economics, Com- mercial Law, Accounts, and Bus- iness Organization are added to make candidates equipped to man- age the vicissitudes of business. At the conclusion, the degree con- ferred is a Bachelor of Science in Commerce. DEFENSE FOR GOD ' S COUNTRY Ingenious Chefs In answer to the nation’s plea for all-out defense, Regis was in cooperation with the Weston Chapter of the American Red Cross. Several Faculty members received Red Cross Instruction Certihcates and thus imparted their proficiency to volunteer classes of students. Under the surveillance of Miss Mar- garet McNamee, knitting needles stitched countless sweaters and socks and B.S.H. students contributed generously to cloth- ing for civilians. Subscriptions to the Canteen Aid Course, which gives instructions for expeditious mass feeding, were plentiful; the sale of Defense Stamps and Bonds, directed by Miss Grace Hawley, was enthusiasticallv patronized; and the Reading Club, cooper- ating with the American Library Associa- tion, collected specified books for service stations. B.S.H. Those artistically and domes- tically-minded pursue the prac- tical arts of Home Economics. Nurturing and developing flairs for creations a la Fifth Avenue in the Clothing Department, sty- lists design wearing apparel of the latest Hollywood mode. Concentration on foods shapes dietitians for public and private use. With an eye to health and economy, they study healthful diets and add to them the flourish- es of a gourmet’s Heaven. Income Management develops thrifty wives and efficient chefs; while Home Nursing acquaints the in- genue with the best methods for treating domestic calamities. Com- bined with Philosophic Studies, Religion, Scripture, and Litera- ture, they comprise a Bachelor of Science Degree in Home Eco- nomics. While Air Raid Wardens maintained constant vigilance in the Norman Tower, Faculty and Students united in Chapel in fervent prayer for the cessation of brutality and paganism throughout the world.

Although it has been raining steadily since early morn- ing, the green grass and trees are beginning to assume a brighter hue. To me, rain has a dual nature, forcing me to think of happier moments; those of the past and those of the future. I gather a cheerful message in the incessant patter of the raindrops on my window pane. They seem to drive steadily onward; and, if there were any obstacles in the path of these raindrops, those ob- structions would become inconsequential. Dad, that is the way we should be today. Remember how brightly the sun was shining on September 16, when we left our beaches and apple trees to register for the Junior vear? We shall never forget Agnes Connell, the baby of the class, as she arrived with her blond tresses straight and glamorous — our own ' eronica Lake. Fast Row: G. O ' Brien, A. Sheehan, P. Sharbv, M.

It was also the year of bahy-clips, although Dorothy Curran vowed she would never go near another hair-dresser, after having her locks shorn. We assumed an air — as wise and dignified as the Seniors — when we advised our little Freshmen that although the vicissitudes of life be many, “the world goes up and the world goes down and the sunshine follows the rain.” Founders’ Day saw us in the midst of the mysteries of Psychology, that science that may tax the mind, but is certainly not of the mind. Nevertheless, hope still manages to spring eternal, and as the Sen- iors donned their impressive black gowns, we determined to brave the pitfalls of Physics and even Shakespeare to attain our cherished goal. October 31 — and we attended the Harvest Hop. Will Phyllis Daly ever forget that the orchestra leader played “Begin the Beguine” — not twice but three times for her? I Olive M.

Soon after, Christmas vacation was an added refreshment in the dust of life. Our own ambitious Thespians accredited themselves in their first professional ap- l ' earance in Four in a Tower.” We made the Pre-Lenten Dance the final celebration between examinations and the penitential season — at which time Marie Carroll and Kay Foley religiously determined to attend Mass every morning and actually did. On Thursday nights during the long winter season, we gave vent to all our pent-up class spirit and enthusiasm on the basketball court. Through the beneficent grace bestowed upon us by Father Cletus, we returned home to spend our Easter vacation — in mind, peaceful and secure. I am afraid that after examinations we were only Prom-conscious. This was the event that we had eagerly anticipated as Underclassmen — and this year Uncle Sam declared war, thereby robbing us of all available escorts. Our consternation was First Row: E.

To Mary Witham and all her competent com- mittees we owe the unprecedented success of our venture. Well, Dad, the year has flown hy under mv pen as if it were a few passing moments only. But all good things are transitory, aren’t they? Commencement exercises humbled any proud egoism that might have become dominant in us. As we watched the Seniors receive their degrees, we realized that it remained for us to emulate them, when, in the following year, we would attain the realization of a life-long dream. It has stopped raining now and the sun is just beginning to shine. There seems to be a faint suggestion of a rainbow, too. I can see what is before me now. Dad, more clearly than ever; and I know that al- though I have completed three years, I still have the most difficult step to mount — the prelude for my career in a changing world. Alice M.

Concentration for Reading . . . Jane, Eileen, Jean, Rose Helen E. Sullivan Sophomores ith grim determination to prove our new appellation, Sophomore,” the Class of ’44 launched upon the turbulent waters of the second year at Regis. Charting our course for the days ahead, with the aid of the logs left in our possession, we valiantly embarked upon a year scheduled to be replete with novel adventures. Yes, Sophomores at last! The surface bravado of the timid Freshmen was now replaced by the assurance that comes with advanced age and wisdom. Forgotten were the initiation-day blues ” of our own first year, as we prepared to prove our suprem- acy over the new Freshmen. Cries of Air- Raid” and glimpses of rakishly-garbed Freshies giving avowal of their own insig- nificance were the order of the day late in October. The second buoy which marked this year was the impressive ceremonies of Founders’ Day. At last we saw our Junior F rst Row: M. Eagar, B. Boyer, A. Conlin, D. Goggin, E. Kennedy, H.

Nash Sisters don the mantle, which showed that they had surmounted all obstacles and had not run afoul on the shoals of defeat. As we stood beside them to be photographed, did not our thoughts race ahead to that day when we, too, would receive our caps and gowns? In October we chose the Captain of our class Helen Sullivan, and her able First- Mates, Harriette Murphy, Mary Gordon, and Mary Curnane. With such worthy pilots, our journey as Sophomores could not help being successful. October saw us tripping the light fan- tastic at the Harvest Hop, for which event the Sophomore Class turned out practically en masse. By this time our fame as mariners had spread, and at Christmas we were able to do our share in making the season a merry one. We thrilled again to the Senior Ser- enade, and to the stirring renditions of Mary Lou Gallen, at the Christmas play. It was hard to believe that we had passed the half-way mark on this trip, but vaca- tion was the chronometer which proved it. Returning, refreshed, from the brief shore leave, we settled down for a stormy Harriette F. Murphy [ 99 ] Mary F. Gordon season. The barometer showed that mid- years, with their rock-bound barriers, were in the offing. How many times did our ship rock perilously during those trying days, only to right herself anew as we sailed into brighter weather ahead. January met us alert for a new bell signal — the air-raid drill alarm. Although we lay awake many nights in anticipation of such an alarm, the first real drill awoke us from a sound sleep! The Pre-Lenten Dance, held at Long- wood Towers, was a victory dance for all those who had deftly maneuvered through midyears. With the advent of February, we inaugu- rated a tradition. We had held always a deep regard for our Sister Class, so one evening we tendered the Seniors a supper at Regis Hall. Under the capable direction of Barbara Browne, this was successful. Although the middle of February found us not yet existing on hardtack and water, yet, desserts left untouched and a decided decrease in candy sales at the store were indications that Lent was here. Midterms in March daunted us not at all, but we eagerly awaited that boon of First Row: ]. Lyons, L. Penez, G. Di Pesa, M. White, O. Cardanha. . Second Row: P. Davieau, M. Belleau, J. DeCastro, V.

Spiritually up- lifted by Retreat, we hastened home, where social affairs met with approval. acation days are fleet, but, on the whole, we were glad to he back at school. Basketball season proved that we were still able to produce victorious hoopsters, as we scored basket after basket. Looking back over the pages of the log, I discovered that Junior eek, with its gala Prom, was anticipated almost as eagerly bv the Sophomores as by the Jun- iors. Our class was well represented there and added much color to the occasion. May was a happy month, holding a wealth of memories — of honors shared in the Daisy Chain; of the lovely May Proces- sion; and of the day when we rejoiced with our Sister Class at the attainment of their goal. And so, “The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won; The port is near’’ . . .the port which bears the label Junior Year and for which this year was a Mary L. Curnane trial trip, filled with many adventures and rich reward. Geraldine C. Dahlmer, ’44 First Row: M. Hunt, A. Foley, I. Corsiclc, G. Dahlmer, C. Boylan. . .Second Row: Scanlon, T. Foley, M.

Turpin Therese Holland Freshmen The year was 1941. The day was Sep- tember 16. The sky was blue and the air was clear; nothing but the swaying of the poplars disturbed the serenity of Regis. Suddenly the incessant purr of motors filled the air, as the cars rolled up the drive. Immediately began the attack with- out warning, when into the halls of Regis dropped the Freshman incendiaries of ’45. Through many intricate byways, we were escorted to a classroom. Then began the eternity of scrolling one’s name and address on white cards. For all we knew, they might have been identification cards in case of bombing. Somehow there was always somebody peering over our shoul- ders to discern the cause of so many blots. Truly, it was a worse ordeal than that of eating spaghetti in a hotel with a waiter on either side. Perhaps with less bewilderment, but just as much temerity, we came the next [ 104 ] Jay to meet the Faculty. Then was opened to us a new litany of saints’ names. Small wonder that upon introduction we did not say, Pray for us.’’ Indeed, it was not long before a much apprehended day arrived, when we made our debut to college life in braids, black stockings, and balloons for air-aids. With jeering eyes the Upperclassmen gloated upon us, poor Freshman defense workers, who were teaching the art of ducking beneath refectory tables and gracing the floor, whenever the air-raid warning was given. Perhaps, they were showing us the way to victory; but when we went to class- es in evening shoes, we were certainly given the pains of defeet. Yes, the blunders were well blended with bliss. Yet, our scholastic debut at the quarterlies was even less graceful than our earlier one. It would not have been so bewildering had we possessed the wit of one clever historian. When questioned for the location of Mesopotamia, she simply replied, Why, it’s on the map.” Rita M. Kelliher There was abundant spontaneity.

Surely the handwriting on the wall would have meant nothing to Belchazza had he re- ceived such a card, such an ominous card. It was not long before the footprints of Thanksgiving were covered with snow, and Advent made fresh tracks toward the Christmas holidays. Then it was that the dull trod of lessons died away in the burst- ing melody of the Seniors’ carols. Of course, it must he admitted that this convivial spirit met a rapid decline upon our return to school. Once again we were met with a warning! “The midyear ex- aminations will commence in two weeks.” herever we went, this awful threat beat spasmodically in our ears. Avid when the hour came, in a queer state of mental delirium, we passed each crisis, little knowing whether or not we might have given a discourse upon the Concordat of Worms in the Biology exam. Then occurred something most contra- dictory to the nature of Freshmen. Once we had made an attack without warning upon Regis. And now what were we doing? Retreating? Yet, it was that retreat which on the rebound gathers new force. For First Row: R. Manion, B. Welch, C. Francoeur, M. Terrasi, D. Beatrice, A.. Pendergast, J, Chouinard. . .SecotiJ Row: M. Daley, M.

Indeed, it was our very nature to remark, But Heaven was not the only thing we wanted to take by storm, for with the Easter Holidays came the Junior Prom. Strange how swiftly that glorious tri- umph was shadowed by the approaching final exams. What difference did the respi- ration of the earth worm make when we could scarcely breathe? What difference did the Oath of the Tennis Court make when we had pens, not rackets, in our hands? But soon the breezes of Spring wafted from us the pages of study. The majestic Foyer which like a sphinx, had observed the constant procession to class, now be- came the festive host to the Senior Dance. That night we remembered when, 150 strong, we blew in upon the College. Yet, we were no ordinary incendiaries!

Gentle daughters dolt their robes of learning, shun their tracts, and don their carefree gowns. Wearied with the teachings of the masters, unto them- selves they take the thought and pursue its strains unto the final essence. In Carondolet, birch logs warm the field-stone hearth and send their energetic flush throughout the company. Fruit, gathered from the orchards of the King, passes among those present — idyllic rustic- ity welcomes the studied to rest a moment in its bowers. Inspiration of Nature Vernal Panorama Meridian Vignette Acanthus-Crowned Guards But the learned mind cannot remain thus long. Presently, the atmosphere is charged — argument electnhes the air and every rational presence becomes a bit of erudition, mixing well the knowledge of the doctors and its own ingenious glean- ings. Poets suffer no distinction as Edna St. Vincent Millay comes into discussion with Robert Herrick; and, latter day novelists, writing with commercial ends, are scourged by these who consciously desire true art. Classicists lounge in a Latin setting and with the nonchalance of Epicurus, idly partake of foreign dishes, discoursing on the haunts of Horace, while with Romanti- cists, Hotel de Rambouillet relives to be the nucleus of modern thought. “Let All My Life Be Music” and down the chase a full roulade of heavenly melody fills the laughing breeze — carolers in one angelic voice sing a madrigal of lasting love or softly hum Gregorian chant. From Chapel breathes a quiet, reverent Dominus vobiscum and softly flows the hnal Ave. And thus is passed the vacant hour in the Queen’s gardens. A garland of plea- sure, plus beauty, plus truth, entwines us and makes us one. [ 113 ] Oak-Wreathed Battlements Standing: Ann R. Stanton, Sally G. Cri.Tiinins, Leila M. Foley.

To insure smooth sailing, the demerit system was clarified and rearranged to suit specific cases. The old order changed when the “accused” was given an opportunity of pleading her case before the Council. The vivacious and ingenious Freshmen were represented this year by the Vice- President as well as their Chief Executive. A bible of traditions was compiled by progressive Sophomores who set down Regis chronologically. As their part in Civilian Defense, mem- bers of the Student Government became Air Raid Wardens, thus facilitating black- out effectiveness. “To warn, to comfort, and command, became the creed of the Council which worked not as a Gestapo but as a board of assistants striving to make the way easier, the truth clearer, and the life pleasanter.

As her Ambassadors, the Lecture Team chose The Crisis of Our Age and familiarized thoughtful Catholics in Brighton, New- ton, Wellesley, Woburn, and Boston with the problems of the day. March 1 found ten delegates from Regis attending the Democracy Meeting at Fordham University. The Bill of Rights in Its relation to Catholic Philosophy was the topic discussed. Throughout Lent, joint meetings in the form of a series of lectures were held. The speakers were: the Rev. William McCar- thy, Brookline; the Rev. James Kellar, M.M., New York; the Rev. Francis Mc- Inerney, Dorchester; and the Rev. John Fogarty, Weston. “Hail, Holy Queen!” The May proces- sion was a pageant of beauty, the final Magnihcat from her devoted Daughters.

Jacques Maritain’s lecture on “L’Egalite Hu- maine,” heard by members as guests of the French Club at Wellesley College. Delightful literary analyses of such nineteenth century realistic drama as: Le Chapeau de Faille d ' It alie, and he Voyage de M. Perrichon, by Labiche, were delivered by Sophomore students. The performance of comic scenes from Le Monde ou 1’ on s ' ennuie made Lucy, Suzanne, and the Duch- ess unforgettable. Tristan Bernard’s classic, L ' Anglais tel qu ' on le park, was staged by the Juniors. All members attended a representation of Moliere’s Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, with music and ballet at Boston University.

Music of the gods — Ludwig van Beethoven, well executed by Joan Schmidt, blending its thundering hoof beats and angelic quiet, was the tapestral background for the stories of German folklore. Tales of Hoff- man became the nucleus of ghoulish mys- tery for All Saints’ Eve. Tdtinenbaum and Stille Nacht joined with the strains of music from other land s to give remembrance at Weihnachten of the jovial Germany that was and Apfelkuchen perfected the scene. Farewell in the hardy Teutonic fashion; a supper of wieners and sauerkraut served in a schloss on the Rhine.” Kellnerinnen in Alpine dress hovered around the diners, affecting a convincing air of German hos- pitality.

Thrilling to the masterful renditions of various selections from Verdi’s operas, ten members witnessed a moving presenta- tion of the life and works of that illustrious Italian composer, at Jacob Sleeper Hall, Boston University. After the appeal to the aesthetic sense, an Epicurean’s feast was provided from the antipasto to spumone, relished with enthusiasm of gourmets. Many-hued costumes, whirling on grace- ful dancers, provided a living tapestry for the staging of the celebration of an Italian festival, with Regis Hall trans- formed into a picturesque market place of Naples. ’ V hile several members, in a pro- fusion of flowers, energetically performed the folk dances, others joined in the melodious singing, a fitting conclusion and appropriate Arrivederci.

Wearied by the exhausting process, they found rejuvenation in the Hallowe’en refreshments of Mary Lou Healey. With Helen McCarthy in the chair, events proceeded with exceptional ease and variety. In November, George W’ater- man of Assumption College lectured on the subject of Parthenogenesis; and students exploited bimetallic controls, plastics, vitamins, and fingerprinting. Came Christmas and the young Eve Curies became Elsa Maxwells with a dinne r in Regis Hall. Evening appeared and so did Santa (Genevieve Herlihy). Under Margaret Loughlin’s guidance. The Scope became the acme of scientihc erudition, vying now with professional journals. Enlightened as to their prospects in science today by Miss Donna Lombardi, the members held a farewell banquet at which the torch of scientific truth was passed on to future leaders.

Jefferson, Margaret A. O ' Toole, Rita E. Cronin Guardians of the Lares and Penates opened their active season with a Candle- light Tea in October, a traditional induc- tion ceremony for twenty-three Freshmen. The season of mellow fruitfulness came early to Regis, with a demonstration in November of the unlimited possibilities of the plebian banana. Santa became a member of the inner Sanctum of the homemakers at Peggy O’Toole ' s delightful Christmas party. For the potential Schiaparelli, Buttrick Pattern Company presented a Style Show in February; and for those who favored The Magic of a Toner ' s Hand, the March meeting was inspiring. In turn the Underclassmen arranged the meetings; the Sophomores in April and the Juniors duplicating their success in May with a Gay Nineties Revue. Plying their needles for the Red Cross was an extra curriculum activity of the club; layettes, ski suits, sweaters, caps were turned out with professional skill. Climaxing the year was the exhibition in June directed by Pat Jefferson. [ 122 ] Francesca B. Gallagher OFFICERS A. Josephine O ' Keefe, President Jane E. O ' Brien, Vice-President Jean N. Muldoon, Secretary Evelvn M. Sarris, Treasurer With their paths lighted by Charity’s lamp, the Ethelon Club walked quietly but steadily in the way of service. The faltering steps of Freshman initiates were aided by a friendly introduction to Social Work at Carondolet. Jo O’Keefe explained the “due-less, do more’’ policy of this unique group. Highspot of the year was the Annual Penny Sale in November, dogs, dishes, and dinners added zest to the all-out drive for Charity. This event paved the way for the Christmas baskets, distributed to needy families of greater Boston. Proof that “Soc’’ Majors are a blend of Doroth) Dix and Fanny Farmer was the alentine Supper, a social note in this program of willing service. Lectures on poignant social problems were sponsored by the Club; Sister Con- suela Marie and the Reverend Frederick Mulrey gave Social Workers a clearer in- sight into their chosen careers. Field Work Supervisors were enter- tained at a Tea, which closed another year of work and sociability. Evelvn M. Sarris, Jean N. Muldoon, Jane E. O ' Brien, A.

Miss Marie O’Neil, Guest Speaker, presented a vivid descrip- tion of her position as the operating focus in an office of a well-known textile firm. Generosity was the keynote at the November gathering, as the Club’s own Horn of Plenty overflowed with canned goods, sugar, and vegetables for Thanks- giving Baskets for the less fortunate. Yuletide could not pass without due celebration; and, this year the Freshmen were honored with all the graciousness of their elders and conviviality of the season. Miss Rosamond Vahey was the speaker for a special meeting of Seniors, on the sub- ject of “Advertising Salesmanship”; and, in February, Miss Donna Lombardi en- lightened all the classes as to their pros- pects in the business world. Concluding activities, the Graduating Class of Secretaries invited all the Secre- tarial Alumnae to a June Banquet in Regis Hall, hostessed by Mary Lee. Margaret B. O ' Hare, Mary J. Lee, Ruth A.

Brennan REGIS or W hether it be Fugue or Fox-trot, Gou- nod or Gershwin that you request, the College Orchestra can aptly oblige, for musical magic ensues when the more artistic of our goodly fellowship convene under the baton of Mary Lou Healey. Our orchestra made its debut for the year at the Ca cilian Concert, a musicale in honor of the Patron Saint; and, at the Christmas play the joy of the time was immensely enlivened by the rendition of spirited carols and an unparalleled inter- pretation of “Jingle Bells.” Bowing grace- fully for the last appearance of the season, our musicians offered artistic embellish- ment for the Annual Commencement Play. Harmony of solemnity and jollity har- bors the key to the beauty of the Orchestra and its success depends upon it, for this or- ganization is a tangible, working model of the pattern of successful living. Adding a moment of levity to their year’s serious effort, all practice was suspended for a final picnic, when the members hied them- selves away to the wooded haunts of Weston to be entertained by Nature. OFFICERS Mary Louise Healey, President Margaret A. Brennan, Secretary Alice M. Murphy, Treasurer Regis Hall [ 125 ] At the October session the Seniors re- ceived the Freshmen with a Tea at Regis Hall. New members levelled the barriers with personal biographies and unveilings of their impressions of Regis. Not to be unmoved by the atmosphere of November, our technical contingent resorted to Caron- dolet for a feast of wieners, cider, and doughnuts; and, in December, the Sopho- mores turned hostesses with the Freshmen supplying the entertainment — Santa ar- rived with suitable gifts for everyone. (Joan Lyons fears her established position as “St. Nick.’’) Valentine’s Day and Seniors opened the portals to the Alumnae. Everything went well until the problem of the Christians and the Turks disrupted the meeting with pencils and slide rules. Regis Mathematicians, members of the Greater Boston Intercollegiate MathClubs, were the guests of Harvard and M.I.T., at W’lnter Meetings. Project of the year was the tabulation of “personals” which showed the typical Miss Regis far more attractive than Miss America. Margaret F. McCarthy, Teresa A. Laiinie, ' irginia J.

Miss Margaret Lothrop, daughter of the author of The Fire Little Peppers, conducted the tour and explained the countless mementos. In keeping with the holiday season, a gay. Candlelight Supper was held at Regis Hall in December. Claire Sullivan and Pat Burns made this a memorable evening. Book reviews of current “little” stories as Mrs. Appleyard ' s Year and Mrs. Miniver were given by Peggy Powers and Gertrude Dowd. Barbara Browne read selections from the delightful biography. Big Family. Tea and an animated discussion concluded this meeting. March brought an illustrated lecture on Mexico. Mrs. Thomas McCormick pre- sented pictures of the setting of Frances Parkinson Keyes’ Grace of Guadalupe, with vividness and charm. A Literary Pilgrimage in April and a May Tea closed a pleasant year. Catherine E. Garritv, Barbara A. Browne, Anne F. Horrigan [127] Color and pageantry, ethereal music of voice and harp intensified the Christmas production, woven about the life of Our Lord, of The Little Tout! of Bethlehem, by Katrina Trask. Against the panoramic scenery of Bethlehem, Mary Uhl trod the boards as Faustina, with leading roles played by Eleanor Dever, Geraldine White, Margaret Hyder, and Peggy Powers. Three rollicking one-act comedies. Ac- cent on Revenge, Her First Assignment , and The Charm Racket, in a benefit performance for The Mount Regis, brought every member before the footlights. ith its charming, witty dialogue and delightful atmosphere. Sir James M. Bar- rie’s The Admirable Crichton provided an entertaining vehicle for the Commence- ment production in June. To the male parts portrayed by members of the Boston College Dramatic Society, Eleanor Dever, Geraldine White, and Peggy Powers played the Ladies Mary, Catherine, and Agatha, respectively; Mary Uhl, Tweeny; and Jo O’Keefe, Lady Brocklehurst.

Higgins “Peace of Christ in the reign of Christ,” became the theme of the I.R.C. this year. In an effort to clarify world-problems, the October wiener roast at Carondolet fea- tured a comparative treatment of Com- munism, Fascism, and Nazism. A panel discussion with Holy Cross and Emmanuel brought about an understand- ing of the aims and purposes of a new world society, based upon a return to Christian principles. Inclement weather failed to keep Mary Uhl and Helen Higgins from journeying to Albertus Magnus College in February, to speak before the New England Associa- tion for International Peace. Emmanuel sponsored a meeting, March 22, which was attended by many club members. Another highlight in March was the election of Mildred Trask and Mary Cassidy as delegates to the April conference at New Rochelle. A corps of Regis enthusiasts escorted them. The year concluded with a series of days of prayer, for the I.R.C. realized that peace lies not in words but in Christ. OFFICERS A. Geraldine White, President Catherine E.

The hrst testament of this winged flight was the traditional Caecilian Concert, directed by Dolores Kimble. Two contrasts in perfection were the picaresque M.a Little Banjo and the lofty Noiv Let All the Heavens Adore Thee. “Let all our life be music’’ was the general anthem. The Senior Septette, Kay Curran, Vir- ginia Curtin, Helen Chesnolevich, Claire Ledoux, Peggy Powers, Dolores Kimble, and Marcia Gill, made “wishful” thinking a pleasure. Amid rehearsals, the Green Tea on March 17, made it a “joy to sing.” Under Sally Dailey’s and Eleanor Dever’s compe- tent direction, it was a thing of beauty and a day to remember. The Custance Duo struck the harp that was the heart of Ireland. Old Erin was recreated with the magic of true artistry. May was a symphonic month for the wondrous songs of Pops reechoed in the rapturous strains of the Commencement Hymn. Helen R. McCarthy PURPOSES: Guidance for the Undecided Place nent for the Career-Minded Under the direction of Miss Donna Lombardi, the Appointment Bureau aims to interview and classify Regis students for positions in the business world. There is arranged for Seniors a definite program of volunteer services connected with their Major endeavors, and other Personnel Directors are invited to interview them personally at work. Students concentrating in Clothing vis- ited Vogue ' s Pattern Factory and Henri Bendel’s Specialty Shop in New York; scientists made trips to various commercial laboratories; students with a pedagogical yen taught for practice at various schools; and each department had its own work in connection with later appointment. An intensive program of investigation and plotting of aptitudes, with the purpose of directing efforts for the most congenial and profitable fields, has begun among the Underclassmen. All this is done in co- operation with the Major Professors so that each student may be treated fairly and wisely, with a view to effort, ability, and personality. Miss Donna A.

Exhilarating rides through the long, winding trails and open helds of the hunt country of Weston and Natick brought groups or the entire Club into the cool, zestful autumn air. Conhning themselves to the indoor ring during the Winter, the riders practised, under expert guidance, the fundamentals and advanced skills of horsemanship. Starting with the right lead. Spring cantered gracefully into the seasonal cir- cle, bringing breakfast or moonlight rides, vying with serious rehearsals. Showmanship combineci with skill, pag- eantry with color, neighing of horses with strains of the band — the annual Riding Show meant competition for Beginning, Intermediate, and Advanced Classes, ex- hibitions in jumping, a musical chair con- test, a fanciful playlet on horseback, end- ing with a smoothly executed drill.

The arch- ery range and bicycling paths reechoed with the twang of arrows and whir of wheels, while fencing and ping-pong vied with skiing and tobogganing. With the lively antics of Class Cheer- leaders, a healthy spirit of rivalry was fostered in the Thursday Intramural Bas- ketball Tournament during Lent, culmin- ating in the Seniors’ fourth victory. Splashes of red, white, and blue, and “V” for victory formations lent a patri- otic motif to the Annual Physical Educa- tion Exhibition in early Spring, with the roller skating and bicycling drills, and Danish exercises, the highlights. Energetic, evenly matched players strove to win the May Tennis Tournament, as their sister mermaids dived and swam in the Aquatic Meet. Distribution of class numerals, college letters, medals, and trophies climaxed the victory banquet. OFFICERS Margaret F. McCarthy, President Margaret F.

The Fathers of the collegians enjoyed the Reverend William J. Daly’s talk on “The Citizen in the Kingdom of Christ,” preceded by a reception in the Foyer and followed by community singing at the Annual November Smoker. Enthusiasm generated by the Rallle held in January became enthusiastic ap- proval in March with the Fashion Show and Tea, highlighted by the comments of Miss Nell Giles. Three hilarious One-Act Comedies enacted by the Senior Thespians in April antedated only the yearbook’s emergence.

At the Newton home of Mrs. Herbert Connolly in early December, Mrs. Wil- liam McGee conducted a Christmas Sale, offering gay ribbons and wrappings for Noel festivities. During the Spring months, various mem- bers hostessed Serial Bridge Parties for which prizes of five dollars for Auction and Contract were awarded, at the end of the season, so replete with delighful memories. In conclusion, the Right Reverend Robert Barry of the Charitable Bureau addressed the members of the Guild at the Annual Communion Breakfast at the Col- lege and at this time stressed the import- ance of continued Catholic education in the home.

We of Regis humbly chose among us one to pose as queen in tribute to the greater Queen, the Mistress of our Court. Our fairest child accepted modestly this most beautiful of compliments and in heart and soul prepared herself to meet more closely the requirements of the pose. Surrounded by admirers and entrained by friends, the queen was hailed in coronation. Across the slopes of Regis, the procession wended to a Shrine wherein was sheltered Mary’s statue, and there, with words of eloquence, was placed a crown in recogni- tion of Mary, Our Mother. At Regis Hall, Benediction and words of wisdom that we may be true to Regis and strive to imitate our lovely Queen.

The gaily ribboned shovel turns soft earth and there, within the heart of Regis, springs a portion of God’s beauty, a tree, to grow and strengthen, to witness our ever-deepening love. Lives are telescoped and we perceive what others expect of us; testator of the class bequeaths, with tinges of nostalgia, our incidental virtues, failings, and our keys to momentary pleasure.

Behold the kingly wealth, within Its clasp the keys of courtly know- ledge, past glories, present dreams, future conquests. Fortuna, Sentinel of the King, smiles and displays the hoard. Rubies glow with fidelity to truth. His statutes, remonstrance and praise, a message to His subjects.

W ' rought in the delicate strength of silver, an encomium of courtly praise adds radiance to this Kingly treasury; uniting the fullness of loyal hearts in lyrical strains. Fortuna with reluctance rolls back the heavy door; the sentinels renew their solemn pace; the royal wealth is hidden — yet its grandeur speaks beyond the vault, an attribute of royalty. King and etched with studied care Flis words. Gems of memory, a sparkling trail of diamonds cut in many facets with the precision of historians’ art, vivify the past and diadem the future. Ancestral wealth, emeralds of hope, turquoise for remembrance; opals for trust, add brilliance to the courtly riches, a legacy bequeathed with pride. A prophecy in the mellow gold of a Sibyl’s craft illuminates the unknown; Time’s test alone will tarnish or enrich its luster. [ 155 ] Presidential Smile — Jini Croft p.-tui “May the Almighty grant that the voice of the Father of Cihristendom, the Servant among the Servants appointed by Christ, despite his unworthiness, be favor- ably listened to by hearts and minds. May the strong and mighty listen to us, and use their power not for destruction, but for construction; for the protection, the peace, order, and work of nations. W ' e implore you by the blood of Christ, W ' hose strength IS Our support, conscious that all men of feeling, all those who thirst for justice, all those who suffer are with Us.” This impassioned prayer was uttered by the greatest living force for peace today, Eugenio Pacelli, Pope Pius XII, the Father of Princes, Rector of the W ' orld, dcar of Our Saviour Jesus Christ, now gloriously reigning. Acclaimed the great neutral. His Holiness owes allegiance to God alone, his Charity embraces all races, his universal truths are beyond the bounds of nationalism and totalitarianism. A neutral, he may be considered a com- batant, fighting without greed for power, without desire for possessions, without the brutality of force — what a contrast to every other world leader — fighting almost alone his impartial battle for peace. A living symbol of peace. His Holiness was adorned with the Triple Tiara and the Ring of the Fisherman in the March of 1939, as a maelstrom of war was sucking into its hideous vortex of deceit the peoples of Europe, gathering a tremendous force of arms to lash out upon the world. He beheld his flock a prey to propaganda, a victim of fanaticism, a pawn in the international chess game played by Euro- pean politicians. Opposing the Church, which, guided by the Chair of Peter, has for two centuries been the champion of truth, those ruthless exponents of paganism pledged themselves to exclude the influence of the Church in the political sphere, to wrest from its care the education of youth and the protection of the family, to seize its property, to nullify Its universal ideas by the emphasis on the one great fatherland, “the super race.” Fearlessly challenging those defenders of racism and nationalism who had pub- licly expressed their antipathy toward the proposed candidacy of Cardinal Pacelli, the sixty-three Princes of the Church, immured in the Sistine Chapel, chose in the swiftest election in the history of the Papacy, the Roman Cardinal of the Curia, the Secretary of State to succeed the late, revered Pope Pius XI. Selecting Pius for his papal name; “Opus Justitiae Pax,” for his motto; and a dove bearing an olive branch for his coat of arms, the new Supreme Pontiff’s first message to the world was a plea for “peace, the fairest of all God’s gifts, that passes all understanding, the peace that all men of feeling cannot but strive for. . . the peace, which joins nations and peoples through mutual brotherly love. ’ ’ Striking the spiritual tone of his reign in the above plea, and in his first encycli- cal, “Summi Pontificatus,” dedicated to the restoration of Faith and the reestab- lishment of the human family, Pius XII continued the policy of his predecessor — the policy which as Secretary of State he helped to formulate — that policy of oppo- sition to race prejudice, to religious perse- cution, and to wars of aggression. Now, in the third year of that reign, not of peace, but for peace. His Holiness cele- brates the twenty-fifth anniversary of his episcopal elevation. Curiously ironic it is that the young priest was consecrated titular Archbishop of Sardes by Pope Benedict XV to emphasize the importance of his post as Papal Nuncio to Munich in the May of 1917, that same Munich which [ 156 ] in 1939 witnessed the betrayal of the Allies by the arch-fiend of paganism, Hitler. Journeying to Berlin a week after his arrival, Archbishop Pacelli presented per- sonally to the Kaiser, Pope Benedict’s peace proposals, which time has proved to be of greater practicality than the ulti- mate V ersailles treaty, hut which war- mad rulers and statesmen of that other W ' orld War rejected. “Only one golden thread ran through the game of intermittent delays played by the diplomats while the youth of Europe was bleeding to death; the tenacity of pur- pose, the purity of aim of Pius XII, who did everything humanly possible to show German diplomacy the error of its ways,” wrote Kees Van Hoek, the eminent author- ity on the Vatican. Remaining in Germany for the next twelve years, the present Rector of the W ' orld faced the revolvers of a revolu- tionary horde fired by its betrayal in Ger- many’s surrender, as calmly and adroitly as he witnessed the Communistic experi- ments of Kurt Eisner and the unsuccessful putsch of Ludendorff and Hitler, effected the Concordat with Bavaria, and became the doyen of diplomats in Berlin. Equally as significant as President V ' on Hinden- burg’s tribute to him, “Germany will never forget your share in the pacification of country,” is the fact that Eugenio Pacelli’s career began and ended with his papal mission to Germany. The little boy whom the class cartoonist always represented as praying, the youth of twenty-two whose brilliant reputation in the seminary caused Monsignor Gas- parri to request his resigning his chair in law to become an apprentice in the Con- gregation for Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs, and who thus at the outset of his career entered the Vatican where one day he was to rule; the young priest who earnestly desired to undertake the care of souls as an ordinary parish curate, but who became, as he later termed it, a “library mouse,’’ codifying the canon law in the Vatican Library, the astute diplomat in Munich and Berlin was recalled by Pope Pius XI of happy memory to be conse- crated Cardinal and to succeed the aging Cardinal Gasparri as Secretary of State. To what has been termed the best in- formed foreign office in the world, its ears listening to government officials through a corps of diplomats, and its fingers on the pulse of the common people reached by 1300 bishops and their parish priests. Cardinal Pacelli brought his penetrating scholarship, his command of eight langu- ages, his skill in diplomacy, and his deep- seated spirituality. As all his training under Cardinal Gasparri had been directed toward his becoming Vatican Secretary of State, so was his experience in this office but the last stepping stone to his unanimous choice as Pope. Kneeling for two hours in adoration before the exposed Host on a float rolling through the streets of Buenos Aires at the Eucharistic Congress, or emerging from an airliner to greet the effervescent crowds in the United States, modernizing the Vatican to the point of installing a radio station, or outwitting Mussolini by releas- ing from Paris Pope Pius XI’s encyclical on Catholic Action, Cardinal Pacelli emerged a world figure of tremendous spiritual force. It was to be expected that, as Pope Pius XII, the whole world would recognize his leadership, applaud his efforts to convene a five-power conference for the peaceful settlement of Europe, and his peace plan of five points — reiterated three times in his yearly Christmas mes- sage, “the one sweet singing hour of peace” in the tragic whirlpool of violence and hatred. The world lauds, too. His Holiness’ plans for a post-war world, one where private property is defended, where there is an equitable distribution of the world’s goods, respect for the rights of workers, integrity of the family, and less immigration restrictions by larger nations. [ 157 ] But the world fo rgets the true primary role of The Rector of the World - not as a statesman or diplomat, hut as the ’icar of Christ on Earth, a shepherd tending and leading the fold which is the Church. As the Servant of the Servants of God, he is “beyond all politics, above all coun- tries, outside all temporary affairs. ’’ In the saintlv nature of Pope Pius XII, who enters Saint Peter’s amid the fanfare of trumpets and robed in costly vestments only to be transformed into the simple priest whose Devotion and Humility seem that of a First Mass; whose Faith and Humility inspire every acquaintance from pilgrim to king, who has led a world to pray for peace, the Church has been blessed with a Pastor Angelicus, the prophecy has been fulhlled. Peace sits upon the throne of Peter. To a world, whose red life blood trickles away in the dust of overwhelming strife, who starves while the fruits of the land are devastated, who is destitute in the face of spiritual and moral bankruptcy, the ' atican now means something more than “the inner sanctum of reaction.’’ It is the oasis of hope and protection in a vast desert of grief. All races, all creeds and denominations turn eyes, surfeited with the pleasures and sufferings of this era, upon Pope Pius XII, in whom are crystallized the two thousand years of safe-guarding the true principles of the Sermon on the Mount. Fet us pray with him, “May God in His kindness, moved by so many voices praying together, and especially the voices of children, re-establish men’s minds in peace, hind them together again in fra- ternal union, and restore the order of tranquillity and justice; may the rainbow of peace appear once again and a happier era open for human society.’’ Elizabeth M. Powers, ’42 Portals of Learning [ 158 ] ' aliant — a word of tribute, precious as a jewel laid before a Queen; a word of honor, solemn as the benediction of a King; a word of homage, humble as a knight’s genullection ; a word of glorv, colorful as the pageantry of tournament. And the modern, valiant woman, who is she? She is a universal figure, rising majestically above time and nationality; she is an individual inspiring homes, convents, offices, schools, and factories with an aura of royalty. She is a phoenix rising from the grandeur of an ancient heritage — a heritage bequeathed from women who have possessed Faith in keep- ing life. Courage in living it, and Charity in nourishing it. Through all the ages from Ruth “in tears amid the alien corn” to Therese of Liseaux, women have cherished valor. It has been their sword unsheathed against the world, their crown worn high above the throng, their re- ward for fidelity to womanhood. Valiant! Such a ringing sound has the strong full note of surety coupled with a high clear tone of Purity. It is mankind’s salutation to the fulfillment of destiny — but, it has more than a wordly significance, for true valor eclipses the material. It implies a union of the spiritual and the material, the natural and the supernatural, a deepen- ing of values which raise life out of shal- low futility. Inscribed upon the scroll of Fortitude, lettered in burnished gold, is the simple name Mary bmnaculate, a name reflected in every gorgeous dawn and every brilliant sunset. If valiance was ever a human quality, in her it became exalted; if ever womanhood was dignified, it was on Calvary’s bloody heights. Who could fail to cry “Valiant” to Mary, whose heart was crucified with every blow to her Beloved Son, yet she stood beside Him until He died? She knew that He was God, and still she kept her peace. There was surely strength in silence when Justice died before her very eyes. Swords seven times had pierced her breast; her life’s blood splashed upon the ground and yet she harbored no malice. She touched the nail-torn feet of her Son and breathed a prayer of mercy for His slayers. She held His bruised and broken Body, knowing that those who called her Mother were His crucifiers — and still she loved them. She placed His bloodless Corpse in a bor- rowed tomb and, realizing that He had given all, begged forgiveness for our selfishness. Valiant — a simple word be- came a prayer. Upon the roster of the gallant, Monica’s name diffuses a splendor slightly less glorious. Faith with unending bounds, Hope with unsounding depths were hers. Thirty years of prayer before her son’s pagan soul was touched! Only those brave in Hope could keep so firmly to their plea, but it was this same bravery which won her heavenly tiara and made Augus- tine an illustrious Doctor of the Church. In the stirring color of warfare, Joan of Arc became a valiant woman, keeping always her quiet femininity. Though garbed with masculine authority, she struck no compromise with her ideals. They were as clear to her as the Heavenly Voices calling her to battle. Her death was ignominious, but her dying was no- bility itself. Longer and longer becomes the vivid scroll unfolding a legion of women who have lived in honor. But what of the modern valiant woman? Is she only a shadow beside these vibrant figures? So glibly have we applied this term that it has lost its real significance. No longer does it connote acceptance of life’s diffi- culties, but active opposition to them. In building character, no longer does one [ 160 1 conquer environment; rather one is mould- ed by it — man no longer rises above sordid- ness, but hides beneath the shams of necessity” and efficiency. W ' e cry ' alor if we are skillful in achieving what the world terms success. W ' e must, affirm modern women, move with the times.” But, why? Think a moment — and there is no answer! W’hy should we expend all our energy for ephemeral triumphs at the sacrifice of permanent values? Can we, as American Catholic women, plead inno- cent of an attitude of indifference when about us there is evidence of the failure of our mission? W’e have a task to per- form — a tremendous reconstruction must take place before we win to valor. Mary paid with her heart, Joan with her life, and Monica with her tears. Are we too parsimonious to pay with time and inter- est? Indifferent faith! What an incongruous- ly true term! Catholic women are disposed to believe that Christ alone nourishes the gift of Faith He bestowed upon them in Baptism. We would he valiant — without conquering the odds, and there are many in this complicated scheme of life. Modern civilization is not Utopia; and if we would achieve our goal as valiant women, we must set out to conquer the obstacles. It is as though there were another Grail and we were of the Round Table of Our Lord. He has given us the duty of reestablishing His laws in the world. If we succeed. He will inscribe our names among those who have served their Master well. There can be no bargaining, we MUST win ! But how? First we must inaugurate a program, an offensive against the flagrant errors con- tained within the narrow confines of our hearts. We possess the truth, but woman- like we hide it as a precious jewel and wear the imitation. We know that the Commandments are the only criteria of life — that the theological virtues are not passe. A practical example of our inertia is the modern treatment of Christ’s in- exorable laws concerning the Sacrament of Matrimony, which we have hidden beneath the cloak of modernity. Catholic women, while not actively condoning divorce, have passively accepted it as an indispensable part of our civilization — a sort of necessary evil. We are pacifists — and we would be valiant! Another more serious matter that Cath- olic women must combat is race-suicide — which is sapping the blood of our natural and supernatural life. Every Christian woman should raise an audible voice against this modern atrocity. A man’s home is his castle and what woman would become her husband’s chattel? We cannot fail to see the disastrous effects of birth control; yet objection has come only from those who are alert to the forces assailing the Church; Catholic women as a ichole have staged no vigorous march of protest. However, the protagonists in this tragedy of mechanized living are ever on the alert to cry Necessity. There is nothing in life so necessary as insuring eternal life; and we as Catholics must rise from our lethargy or we will he permanently anaesthetized. Equally necessary in a rehabilitation program is the reconstruction of current literature. Modern youth has been decried as radical, irresponsible, irreligious. We claim that he has lost his sense of values, that the pendulum of life has swung from liberty to license. M.ea culpa, ?nea culpa, mea maxima culpa — we have given him the explosives which have shattered his ideals. Ereud, Marx, Leibnitz, Nietzche are re- pugnant to our esthetical taste — we recoil when youth quotes their theories. Yet, where are these theories of freedom, of individual importance, of moral irrespon- sibility to be found in more concentrated form than in the so-called best seller? A return to Victorian scrutiny of reading would alleviate some of the danger to youthful minds. Indolence must be re- placed by indignation. [ 161 ] Another region open for investigation by Catholic women is education. Parents have ceased to he in awe of their duty and this laxity has contributed to the apathetic attitude adopted by Catholics. The breach between home and Church has widened with the trend toward secular education. The strongest link in the chain of Cath- olicism has been weakened by the neglect of parental interest in education. Homes have lost the chief medium of spirituality because the voice of Catholic education has to a great extent become inarticulate. Christian principles have become abor- tive through neglect. Charity has become out-moded and Humility, an ancient virtue. Love has become synonymous with only one side of life. The gentle helpfulness of the Good Samaritan is scorned today by cynics who label un- selfishness stupidity.” Philanthropy in its dual role, of appeaser and press agent, has usurped the throne of Christian Charity. Contentment cannot be found in abnegation but, according to modern Philosophy, only in the satisfaction of every hihibitio7i. ' aliant women must bring about a renaissance of Catholic culture — a move- ment as shrewdly instituted and deftly manipulated as any military stratagem.’ We must fight for our spiritual security and the coup d ' etat must be decisive. The Sermon on the Mount must return to our daily lives before we regain our birth- right as descendants of an illustrious line of valiant women. Integrity has been auctioned upon the block of paganism; we have become rich on the thirty pieces of silver we paid for courage; and Truth has been pawned for Fame. Let us kneel in the dust of our crumbling ideals and promise a rekindling of Faith. The valiant woman will rise with Mary’s Faith in life, Monica ' s Hope in life, Joan’s Love of life — reborn in a heart which needs only to be touched with vision. Catherine E. Garrity, ’42 Corinthian Columned [ 162 ] The tinkling of a bell announced my entrance into a dim little curio shop. Through the faded red portieres, in the rear, shuffled a stooped, white-haired gentleman. “How familiar he looks!” I thought. Sneezing with the dust, I sputtered, “I am looking for a paper weight — to weigh down our Class History.” “Of course, you must see that your Class History isn’t blown away — by a hurricane, for instance,” he chortled. “Hum, it was a hurricane that blew us on to Regis campus that September of 1938,” I mused. Here’s just the one for you,” he chuck- led like a delighted child, emerging from under a counter. His gnarled old hand tipped a round glass paper weight upside down revealing snowflakes swirling about. But they’re nor snowflakes,” I ex- claimed, peering closer. “They’re leaves! W’hat a gale must be blowing! And there’s Regis high on a hilltop, in darkness except for a few flickering lights. Do you recall that night?” I asked the old man, who was nodding assent. “With no electricity, and the wind blasting away at the copper roohng, all the residents spent the eve- ning in the Dining Hall, where we Fresh- men were initiated by candlelight. W’e were children of that storm — a blustery group, whose nonchalance was like the leaves dancing and whose tradition-crash- ing grew out of the force of the wind. ’ ’ “Look, the storm is almost over, hut the leaves — are changing again!” I cried. “There are leaves from the Students’ Guide, library slips, movie stubs, cram notes for those first agonizing midterms, dance tickets from the Harvest Hop — all over the Parterre.” “Just like you pseudo-sophisticates,” sniffed my ancient confidant, “always in a whirl.” “What is that flag waving in the breeze?” I asked to change the subject. ”0, that’s from the Lecture Hall, where in your Parliamentary Law Class you elected Mary Keefe, Eleanor Dever, Anne Lane, and Catherine Garrity as Class Officers,” he repilied. The papiers cleared to reveal the Foyer, the scene of the Faculty Reception to our Parents. How we prayed for direction in choosing the right saint’s name for the right Professor. Suddenly, the Gymnasi- um loomed into view. Beribboned, clutch- ing dolls and fuzzy dogs, we were parading before the upperclassmen. Babies’ Night saw us squeezing our extra poundage, the result of regular hours, into short muslins and voiles, squealing vociferously at the antics of Jean Dooley, Anne Lane, and Mary Lou Healey — the ragamuffin trio — and applauding Margaret Hyder, who in loud tones and with sweeping gestures told how “Every Inch of Him W ' as Love.” Another vision — we were parading again, robed in white, veiled in black, marching solemnly to the Sodality Recep- tion, where we “earnestly desired” and received our medals. How quickly time flew from the hectic nights of midyears to the peaceful days of Retreat,” I declared, as I saw Eather Fitz- gerald praying in the amberlightedChapel. “Here are Anna Marie and Geraldine White dancing in Grecian robes and Carmen Meehan swinging Indian clubs at the Gym Exhibition,” chuckled the storekeeper as he turned the globe. “You know their names? You know so much about our class? Who are you?” Gazing at his forehead lined by study, his mouth wrinkled in smiles, his eyes — young and fearless, I gasped, ”I knew that I had seen you before. You are the Spirit of young Collegians of all times. You were sitting beside Chief Justice Kay Curran [ 163 ] at the Freshman Initiation. How we Soph- omores enjoyed that combination trial, amateur hour, and Information Please’ program, with the unwilling victims hobbling about in mismated shoes and stockings, green dresses, pigtails, and signs announcing their names.” How their shyness and reluctance disappeared in the Cafeteria,” he chuckled. ' You counted votes at our election of Margaret Loughlin, drginia Croft, Helen McCarthy, and Eleanor Dever; and sold tickets at our successful Mothers’ Bridge,” I went on breathlessly. ”In our separation by our choices of major subjects, it was you, our Collegiate Spirit, kneeling in Chapel or focusing cameras on the Parterre that united us — in awe and appreciation — as we saw our Senior Sisters receive their caps and gowns.” ’’Soon afterwards you were struggling with the five proofs for the existence of God,” he groaned, in the manner of stu- dents since the time of Saint Thomas. Pointing to a particularly deep furrow on his brow, he sighed, “That came with your midyears of 1940.” Seeing my downcast expression, he brightly demanded, “Do you recall those cheers at the Basketball Games, when Margaret Lewis, Mary Keefe, Mary Lou Healey, Julia Murphy, Pat Jefferson, and Phyllis Tremblay captured the champion- ship? What athletes you were — crawling the Australian way to submerge all other classes in the Swimming Meet and riding to victory in the Horse Show with Marv Lou’s blue ribbon!” Turning sharply, he asked, “Do you remember Father Foley’s Retreat? But, of course, you do — one of your members started to organize a course in charm of the soul. That was before Miss McDonough lectured on ‘charm from within’.” ‘ ‘That reminds me of your Daisy Chain, ’ ’ he added, bowing like a old courtier. “Such grace, such ethereal music (page our harpists, Sally Dailey and Eleanor Dever) I have not witnessed since Mary of Scots ' graduation from a French academy.” Catching the twinkle of approval that cut such flattery to minimum, I ventured, But the Communion Breakfast with our Big Sisters on the day of their Commence- ment was the most impressive — a parting of the veil of the future two years hence, a parting of friendships of two years past, the halfway mark of our collegiate career.” Shaking the globe as though ridding us of all our Sophomoric vestiges, he ex- claimed, What tongue twisters you Juniors concocted from the Freshmen’s names, presenting two or three of your ' Little’ Sisters to the Faculty. I can still hear, too, your whispered jokes in the Library, your laughter in the Cafe and the Tea Room, and your arguments — long and loud — over national politics. No ' third-termers’ were the officers of your third year: Margaret McCarthy, Geraldine McGillicuddy, Catherine Garrity, and Geraldine White.” The flurry stirred up in the ball by elec- tions, football games, and midterms slowly settled into a white blanket of snow as the Christmas Party ushered in Santa, by w ' ay of a laundry basket, and Peggy Brennan emotionalizing with a Garbo accent as My Cousin from Sweden.” After midyear examinations, we swept the basketball court with a 28-8 victory over the Sophomores, only to be con- quered by the inspiring retreat of Father McEleney,” I declared, straining to see into the now-clouded sphere. That fog must be the ’ceiling zero’ that Peggy Brennan encountered in Prom plans. W’e were the first class to spread our wings — already too large for the Foyer — and hold our Junior Dance in a hotel.” “It’s just like a newsreel!” mused the Spirit, gazing at scenes from our Junior W eek, evolving out of the mist. “There you are — praying at Monday morning [ 164 ] Mass, adorned with flowers at the Faculty Dinner, being your most winsome selves at your Mothers’ Tea, hilariously attend- ing the theatre en masse. . . ” W ' ho are they?” I interrupted excitedly as couples in radiant gowns and formal dress danced in the little ball under ma- genta lights. Another glance brought recognition, just as at every dance you recognize on second look that startling Schiaparelli beauty as your roommate. That gorgeous scene of music, lights, and orchids was our Prom — when we were dreams with a dream.” “Your dream fled with your being mea- sured for cap and gown, and emerging shaken but successful from ' The Battle of the Books’ in June,” wryly commented the ancient student, as he vigorously shook the paper weight again. ”How I missed Pal,” the Spirit vowed, squinting at Regis Campus. Without his wag of approval, it didn’t seem like Registration Day last Fall.” Or Founders’ Day!” I added, uncon- sciously curtesying a la Mary Crowley. W ' hat dignity and solemnity the cap and gown brought to the realization that that was our last year!” Swirling in a whirlpool of activities, vision after vision flashed through the crystal ball — the Class Officers, Virginia Croft, Elinor Doyle, ’irginia Curtin, Eleanor Coffey, and Mary Keefe, President of the Student Government, posing for photographers on Investiture Day; our Fathers listening to Father Daly at the annual yearbook smoker; hopeful young teachers, dietitians, and sociologists boarding the eight o’clock bus on W’ed- nesdays; Kay Curran and Ellie Greene puffed up with their annual dogwood poisoning; our black robes and tinv candles lending mystery to the midnight Christmas carolling, at which we won- dered which would tire first our feet or our voices; the Christmas play with those two haughty nobles of ancient Greece and Rome, Eleanor Dever and Geraldine W ' hite, bidding for the love of a bejewelled maiden, Mary Uhl, the flash of diamonds in the first class after Christ- mas vacation; biting our truant pens” in our last midyear exams. W’hat’s happened?” cried the Spirit. The crystal ball is completely black!” That is Regis in an air raid drill,” I rejoined, “or for that matter, any night after ten o’clock.” Through the darkness, a stream of light illumined the Chapel with Father Cletus Mulloy, moving his enraptured Retreat audience. Your spiritual Retreat became a rapid advance on the world after Easter vaca- tion,” gasped the old man. “I could hardly keep up with you — treading the boards with the ' Admirable Crichton’ cast, or trotting over the lawns trying to ' snap Sally Dailey, the May Queen, and her court, helping Gerry McGillicuddy with dance plans, among those present at club teas, returning from a strenuous drill on horseback to practise hoop rolling, assist- ing at your Baccalaureate Mass, and . . ” How could you forget our studying for Comprehensive Examinations! ” I groaned, as he stopped for breath. You are writing finis to your Class History. From now on, it will be biogra- phy — your individual lives — that you will print on the sands of time.” The venerable Collegian’s voice caught as he lowered the little glass paper weight. “But you will live them, live through the wars and the peace of this world, as all Regis, in the W ' ay, the Truth, and the Life.” Elizabeth M. Powers, ’42 [ 165 ] By 1952, peace was partially restored to a post-war ridden world. The war had been over for hve years, hut somehow the excitement of a chaotic Europe kept me quite busy as a foreign correspondent. I had loved every breathless minute, but ten years away from home created such a nostalgic urge that I found myself standing on the deck of a steamer, with the New York skyline looming on the horizon of dear old U.S.A. Suddenly, I felt like a stranger — the memory of my youthful days had been blacked out completely. At La Guardia Field, I hopped a plane; my destination— Boston, Mass. I instantly recognized two former Regisites sitting opposite me — Mary A. Murphy and Lenora Maroney; like old times, we started a little chat that lasted the whole trip. They did all the talking; I listened eagerly. They were returning from participating in the National Typing Contests and were ac- claimed the speediest duo in America. Conversation led to Claire Deveney, whose husband was now President of Remington Rand. Ruthie Murray? She married that pilot, after all. She relinquished him for officer’s duty in the air corps; but, after the war, he transferred his duties to home services. Oh, yes! Evelyn Donahoe, who always enjoyed night life, finally compromised by marrying an orchestra leader. Margue- rite McCann’s love for sweets developed into the thriving chain of Marguerite Bakeries, known from coast to coast. Grace Gomez is the “brains” behind the business; her course in business finance never went to loss. A few Regisites had formed the “She Married Her Boss Club” and its members include Loretta Coyne, Marie McLaughlin, Virginia Curtin, and Betty Daley. They found that efficient managing of an office was but a stepping stone to home management. Bidding Lenora and Mary goodbye, I left the airport and went directly to the Copley for lunch. The convention season was in full swing and from the main ball- room I heard the familiar voice of Virginia Croft expounding the importance of mathe- matics in the school system. This was a gathering of the Mathematical Society of New England. The charming chairman was Teresa Launie, brilliant author of the entertaining volume Numerical Numbers for Stupid Adults. Teresa advised me to attend the Annual Sociologists’ Convention head- ed by Josephine O’Keefe. Jo, it seems, had just been appointed to the professorship of Sociology at Harvard. The Russian genius, Sorokin, finally agreed to retire — now that he had a capable successor. Early that afternoon, I luckily secured an appointment with Jo. She told me that she was deeply indebted to Peggy Conley, Alice Sullivan, and Mary Small, all emin- ent sociologists, for their contributions to her research studies. She contacted Betty Casey; but, while Betty led a social life, it was not intellectually sociological. Rita Carroll, Ann Maguire, and Kay Roche more frankly admitted that, out- side of child welfare, their major course was of little use. Jo asked me if I had read Carmen Mee- han’s new book entitled Social Froblettis of the Home, edited by Anna Marie White, now a distinguished executive in the Department of Public Welfare. When Jo mentioned Anna Marie, I immediately questioned what Gerry was doing. Miss O’Keefe’s Secretary interrupted our talk — Jo handed me Geraldine’s address. The card read The Chaucerian School for Girls in Weston. Meeting Geraldine, directress of her preparatory school for Regis, she, indeed, proved to be the per- sonification of the perfect teacher. Kay Bickley was head of the English Depart- [ 166 ] ment and Eleanor Kelley was a capable Spanish professor. Helen McCarthy pro- duced rare scientihc geniuses — well pre- pared to meet the standards of Cardinal O’Connell Hall. Instinctively, I inquired, Ellie Greene, our fond French major, must have charge of the French Department?” Gerry chuckled, The only French in Ellie ' s life is the Parisienne nurse she has for her darling twins. ’ ’ Here,” she continued, “is a list of lectures I’ve scheduled for the coming year. I’m certain that you will recognize some names.” I read: Peggy Powers, journalist and linguist of note, recently voted W ' oman of the Year, was to discuss Career Versus Marriage. (Looking back, I recall that was Peggy’s problem at all times.) Kay Curran, the local color writer of New England, was to autograph her new book, Neic Bedford Summer. After her Weston winters she more than appreciated her home town. Kay wrote that Anna Ruth Kelaghan, who always desired to be an actress, was completely satisfied by being an actor’s wife. She is determined that her two chil- dren will be reared back stage — making sure that they’ll follow in Daddy’s foot- steps. Gerry tried to contact Marcia Gill, whom President Roosevelt (yes, he’s still with us) had just appointed Poet Laureate of America. Her time, however, is com- pletely taken up with her yet unpublished volume. The Haunts of Regis. Leaving this charming academy for girls, I met Shirley McCrystal and Betty Stevenson, who had come to drive their little darlings home. That afternoon they invited me to attend the Annual Spring Fashion Show given by Fitzgerald and Company — the most exclusive women’s shop in America. Betty, a modiste par excellence, wel- comed us warmly and immediately started to talk about the new American fashions designed by those leading stylists, Eleanor Coffey and Mary Madden. I espied Cathy Garrity, now the wife of an eminent doc- tor, talking with Ursula Brophy, who was a trifle upset because of the behavior of her little son, who complained that he would rather be playing football than shopping with Mummy. (Yes, Ursula married that Holy Cross football star.) Sheila Sullivan proudly showed me snapshots of little Sheila and Freddie, Jr. I asked her what Rita Donovan was doing and I learned that Rita and Marge Hal- loran were on the radio every evening from 5:30 to 6 — courtesy of Health Foods, Inc. — discussing diets for college girls. Sheila informed me that N.B.C.’s fore- most radio announcer is Alice Cullen. As we were leaving, Sally Dailey drop- ped in for a moment. Besides her house- hold duties, she is the energetic President of the Young Mothers’ Club of Boston. Secretary of the Club is none other than Anne Lane, who after graduation, had joined the medical corps as a lab technician and had married the chief of staff. Sally told me that Connie Carney, following a brief training period of two months as air stewardess, married a pilot, now President of American Airlines. Mary Keefe had founded the First Women’s Baseball League in America — called the Amazons. Helen Cronin and Gertrude Mueller, Sally heard, had been appointed directors of their respective cities, in all scientific matters. During the war, Elinor Doyle and Jean Dooley had helped them to invent an atom-like explosive, so powerful that one explosion would wreck a city. Later, Elinor and Jean forsook their scientific careers for domestic bliss. Bidding Sally goodbye, I, at long last, reached my peaceful home — far from the turmoil and excitement of Europe. Here was all that one held dear — peace, friend- ship and the memories of Regis. Eleanor J. Dever, ’42 [ 167 ] W’e the Class of 1942, draftees for four years in the services of intellectualism, for which we fought many victorious strug- gles, do here and now set forth on this scroll our Last Will and Testament before we register in the services of patriotism and depart for future goals. To the College we leave our deepest gratitude for having instilled in our hearts the tenets of truth and loyalty and the sincerest desire that we may uphold its highest tradition. To the Juniors we leave our tine and generous examples of “How to Aid the junior Promenaders. ” To the Sophomores we bequeath our non- chalance, certainty of final achievement, and our uncanny ability for raising funds for our yearbook. To the Freshmen we donate a fully illus- trated map of the Regis buildings, corri- dors, and stairways, complete with flash- light fin case of blackout). To all the Residents we will private telephones for each room for less hurried and more private conversations and a front door key for 12 o’clock permissions. The individual bequests are as follows: Trudy Parks sorrowfully relinquishes her old faithful shoes to one careful in- coming Freshman for four years more of treading stairs. Judy Murphy passes on her little black notebook to any Regisite who is willing to maintain the morale of the Navy at its present high status. Jo O’Keefe willingly bequeaths her 94 per cent average to any two Freshmen who can combine their efforts to attain it. Evelyn Sarris leaves her unfinished field work at the S.P.C.C. to Paisley Sasso to complete in her leisure time. Alice Murphy’s good nature and sunny disposition will be gratefully received by Louise Dobbin. Dolores Kimble offers her ash-blonde locks to roommates Mary Daly and Mary Carr to relieve them of any future prob- lems concerning their own tresses. Joan Dunbar leaves to her sister Colette a warning and strong advice against trying to solve the major problems of the day by majoring in History. Mary Lou Healey is very happy to relieve herself of her exhausting W ' ednes- day mornings, cooking in Boston restau- rants and generously passes these to Betty Coppinger. Helen Higgins leaves her enthusiasm for History to the future History teachers from Regis. Helen McCarthy’s scientific mind, in all matters of the heart and otherwise, is magnanimously donated to Pat Small. To any struggling student who just can’t make the grade, Mary Lee bequeaths her ingenuity for making the “will find a way.” Margaret Hyder bestows her scrapbook of exercises and diary of diets to Marcelle Hembise. Connie Carney bestows her hard-earned pilot’s license to Maryann Burke who is always “up in the air.’’ Peggy Brennan wills her vim, vigor, and vitality to Helen Nancy Brown. It is the earnest desire of Mane Sullivan that Madeleine Davis will continue her plans of looking down account book pages and looking up to the “Heights.” Frances Dolan passes on her need for a private telephone to Mary Hannon to help her avoid the rush in the public booth. Marie Caskin and Muriel Gates (even here they cannot be separated) bestow their record collection and athletic prow- ess upon Pat Connefy and Ollie Monten- egro. Mary Hurley generously bequeaths her [ 169 ] out-of-;i-b:indbox appearance to be parti- tioned between Mary Rego and Mary Bergin. Margaret Corr wills to Claire Donaghue her quiet, unassuming personality and her ability to keep her feet on the ground in hopes that she will follow suit and learn to walk without a cast. Alma Leverone and Mary Uhl leave a recipe for perfect health and a well planned itinerary for New York weekends to Buff Regan and Eva Casey. Mary Irwin sorrowfully relinquishes her Model T and its accompanying Model T driver’s license, and hands both over to Shirley Simmons. Madeline Bovington gladly bequeaths to any underclassman who falls disabled during the year, her crutches and elevator key. Kay Boylan passes on to Mary Cassidy her medicine chest as a certain cure for all ailments. Margaret O’ Hare bestows her red and gold tassel upon her sister Kay, who suc- ceeds her in the Sodality duties. Chessy leaves to fellow New Hampshir- ite, Pauly Sharby, all her unfinished sup- pers in hopes that they bring her the same results — a telephone call from her “pretty particular.’’ Barbara Foss bestows her typical col- legiate looks and ability to wear classics and tweeds upon her successor Betty Benoit. Marjorie Monahan is the recipient of Mary Keefe’s mail box because it is obvi- ous that she can sustain Mary’s record by keeping it always full of “male.” Margaret Loughlin bequeaths her abili- ty to concentrate and place on the Dean’s List to Helene Cooney. Kay Callahan wills her vivid person- ality and winning ways to Doris Johnson. Mary j. Murphy leaves her annual post- exam breakdown to Mary Galligan who should he able to take it. Elbe Morrison bequeaths to any en- gaged underclassman her daily letter that she also may get love-ly mail. Margaret McCarthy donates her skill at juggling statistical columns to any Math Major who may wish to help Mr. Roosevelt balance the budget in 1945- Margaret Lewis parts with her position as top basketball player in order that Peggy Moran may shoulder that responsi- bility. Virginia Rosmond wills her Providence time table and seat in the three o’clock bus Friday P.M. to a future Rhode Island resident. Upon Jean Regan’s shoulder Mary Crowley places her title of “best natured.” Alice Cronin wishes her motto, “a young lady should be seen and not heard,” to be carried on by hrginia Reardon. Marguerite McLaughlin endows some lucky Freshman with her Fordham sticker as a pass for New York weekends. Upon Barbara Reynolds, Gerry Mc- Gillicuddy bestows her ability to ac- quire and maintain a host of friends- both male and female. Claire Ledoux relinquishes her place in the Schola Cantorum to Alice O’Donnell. Mary Roberts bestows her amazing will power upon anyone who wishes to ab- stain from sweets in order to attain a sylph-like figure. Bunny LeFort, whose nimble fingers have worn the keys of many a Royal, en- dows Gertie O’Brien with her amazing ability to “tickle the keys” in an office. Phil Tremblay and Pat Jefferson leave their two Sophomore roommates to any two incoming Freshmen who need to be acclimated. Mary Finneran leaves her argumentative powers in the fields of Ethics and Educa- tion to Pat Gorman. Theresa Guirleo bestows her car upon Millie Trask that she may continue her taxi service more safely. Maree Flanigan leaves her room, open- [ 170 ] ing on to the roof, to anyone who enjoys the pause that refreshes. Jean Crowley confers her ability to save stockings, by wearing the outlawed ankle socks, upon Betty Cudihy. Mary Sullivan bestows her fraternity key upon Dorothy Sullivan that it may open the door to many exciting weekends. In conclusion ; The Senior Day Students graciously bequeath, free of any restrictions, the first right-hand booth in the cafe, whole and entire, to that presumptuous group of Sophomores. In Witness Whereof: We, the Class of 1942, have to this, our Will, set our hand and seal, this third day of June, in the year of Our Lord, one thousand nine hundred forty-two. Mary D. Uhl, ’42 IV itmsses: Lieut. B. A. Leatherneck, U.S. Marines Sergt. J. D. Doe, U.S. Army Microcosm [ 171 ] A pilgrimage of maidens merged into A vale where Ignorance and Witless Youth Impended — hung like preying hawks, prepared To snatch a host age. Steadfastly the maidens Held the course of age, and beacons, piercing dscid gloom, diminished their travails of doubt And sped them ever onward. Amidst the rocks And crags of Folly, Prayer soothed their sores And clutching briars tore away their childish garb. Advancing, soon they reached a flood which snarled White teeth as Charity approached to offer Aid to all allied to stem the murky Tide. Upon the other bank there grew Occasional flowers springing with defiance Through dry sand. A mountain, thick with pits. Loomed high and, ravaged there, the dragon Falsity. Bewildered now, the travellers to the Town Of Truth, confused, began to separate But Loyalty stepped from the throng and with A silvern cord, engirdled them and led Them round the sinking hill. Just one more curve And then celestial light reflected in the welkin From the toilers’ destination. Sincerity, The peon at the gate, inquired their visit. Pleased with their intent, he called to open Wide the portals but into the present swarmed A hive of evils — carnal slaughter and Destruction from the skv. The shivering cosmos Warned that still another test must try Their probity and from the Empyrean Deep words of wrath pronounced forgetfulness Of Love. Inside the Town of Truth imprisoned Peace sits waiting ’til we pilgrims come To rescue her from bondage; it is our task. ' Our minds now dressed in crimson gowns of Faith, And through our hair bestrewn the gems of lore Of learned Fathers, we again assume the fight For liberty of Learning, Faith, and Love. W’e shall not fail. It is our solemn privilege — Our pledge — and we shall battle on the Way To lasting Truth and God’s eternal Light. Marcia Elisabeth Gill, ’42 [ 172 1 W’e are met today on Regis Hill, in the linal chapter of our College History, to dedicate a farewell tribute to our gracious Alma Mater. In a world torn by the dark forebodings of the gods of war, we plant this tree, our humble symbol of Victory — ' ictory in the Christian way of life and hctory in the national struggle to retain the precious freedom of our American way of life. These sapling boughs we entrust to the rich soil and benign shelter of Regis. Here they will grow and flower in the full grace and beauty of their being, as we have grown in Truth and in Wisdom, rooted in the principles of our Faith and guided and protected by the teachings and counsels of the Sisters of Saint Joseph. Gaunt and bare will our tree stand here alone, stripped of its beauty, proud and upright in its strength against the forces of time and of the elements. Loyal to its Creator and the creatures of His Hand who placed it here, our tree will continue to grow, strong and supple, adamant in adversity and beautiful to behold, whether it preens its branches against the grey dawn of W ' inter or the bright blueness of Spring. This, then, is our tree — strength, endur- ance, loyalty, and beauty combining to achieve victorious growth. We consign it to this virgin soil with a prayer that it will never be uprooted. It represents for us not only our ideals, but the realities which our lives will make of them. Today we stand in the protection and shelter of Regis, nurtured by our Catholic heritage and education and fortified by the light of God’s grace. Tomorrow we are called into a world where our Christian ideals are sadly needed — a world raging with the evil forces of hate, war, and sin. We must carry our principles received from the hands of our Alma Mater into lives which will be enduring expressions of Love and of Loyalty to those principles. For like our tree, we shall stand young, untried, and alone against the tempestuous blasts of destruction, but, if our lives re- main rooted in the rich ideals and aspira- tions of our training — if we follow Christ — we need not fear. We are called upon to serve our country, to take up the struggle for Victory with every means at our disposal in these times of strain and of stress. Let us rise to that call. Let us sacrihce, work, and pray for Peace; let our lives be shining symbols of Love, Hope, and Peace to a war-wearied world. Today we have passed another milestone in our lives; this tree is a living reminder of our Hope in the future and our Trust in God. Grateful to those ' who have guided and trained us, and fortified with the Truth of the Cross which crowns our College and with the Wisdom of our teach- ings and ideals, we step hesitantly but eagerly and confidently, from these portals to a life triumphant and victorious for God and for country.

Music by Schola Cantorum TO THE CLASS OE NINETEEN HUNDRED EORTY-TWO Regis College, Alma Mater Catholica, bids you fareu ' ell. It has been given to her, as to all mothers, to clasp your hand in fond regret at parting, to voice Faith in your future, Flope for your happiness, and Love that will he always in her heart for those whom she has dauntlessly nurtured in Christ. Beyond all this, she claims for herself a unique privilege. To her, at this parting, it has been given to hid you share in the Poicer and the Mercy and the Wisdom of the tnost efficacious action on this earth — the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. In so sharing, you par- ticipate in the creative action of the Father, the redeeming work of the Son, and the sanctifying force of the Holy Ghost; you become Christ ' s bearers amd Christlike. Incidental and accidental to this rare privi- lege are the ivords which she needs must use to convey to yo u the joy and the sadness in her heart for such souls upon whom the Precious Blood has fallen and so transfigured, so Deified. And what are the ivords ivhich she will utterl They instinctively break from her heart to her lips. They are twenty centuries old. They are her jnotto ivhich, day in and day out for four years, with the sign of the Cross she has graven upon your hearts. They are the words which her Saviour used when at His first Mass He bade farewell to His beloved dis- ciples, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.” Your mother sends you across the threshold of life, this morning, silently saying in her heart to you, Follow the Way wherever it goes; shut not your eyes to the Truth, whatever it may demand; live His life for it is ultimate glory.” May you answer deep down in your being in the ivords of Alice Meynell: Who knows what days I answer for todayl Giving the bud I give the flower, I bow This yet unfaded and a fading brow; Bending these knees and feeble knees, 1 pray .
