The pupils were few in number—only twelve. The influence of the College was felt all through Galilee and Judea. I he Master of that College is universally recognized as the world's greatest leather: the Builder of our civilization: the Author of our temporal—no less than of our eternal concern. His doctrines are at once the foundation of our political order, the key-stone of our social stability, the inspiration of our ethical principles and the guarantee of our moral conduct. If Culture could have saved the world. Athens would still be the centre of civilization. If militaristic Imperialism had the power to save. Rome would not be remembered now by broken arches and crumbling ruins. If the cult of Beauty in letters and arts could have brought salvation. Italy of the Renaissance would be the savior: if godless philosophies, eighteenth century France: if Commercialism. England with her world wide galleons: if Industrialism. Germany of the nineteenth century. But. none of these things have had the power to save. Not even the swollen prosperity of present-day America can account for a single step forward in the path of genuine human progress. The only stirring progress made in recent years is. strange as it may seem that of Bolshevism, but. it is a progress toward chaos and the tomb. Spiritual regeneration through Christ was—a.nd is the only guarantee of perdurable institutions. For fifteen hundred years. Christianity marched at the head of civilization and culture—-and. during subsequent centuries down to our own day. She has been the only stabilizing influence on earth. This is why—in spite of her financial weakness—Seattle College has remained in the educational field of this great Northwest for thirty-five years. We have neither the intention nor the inclination to compete with our secular, tax-supported institutions: but. in an humble, respectful, persistent way. we arc a protest against the godless education and spiritual illiteracy of our non-Christian educators. Our protest is based not on Christian principles alone but on those too that are distinctively American. The infidel. Thomas Payne, left our country, because he found its atmosphere uncongenial to infidelity. Unfortunately, he would feel far more at home here today. Secularism has blasted at the Rock of Ages.” It is now endeavoring to gain the throne in the Collegiate world, to develop an absolute monarchy in things educational, to ignore, as far as possible, the very existence of Catholic Colleges, to exile Jesus Christ from the world of thought, and to spurn God Almighty Himself. Such godlessness has gone so far that, in some States feeble efforts have been made to legislate against it. Godlessncss will never be cured by legislative enactments: the only remedy for spiritual illiteracy, social anarchy and moral degeneracy is to be found in Christian education, which stands immovably on that foundation which no established fact of science can weaken, the immemorial belief of mankind, that beyond all and above all and in all there is an Eternal Creator, to Whom science and letters no less than Religion itself can offer the tribute of proud obedience and humble adoration.

ON JUNE the tenth the Commencement exercises will take place, and a class of thirty-five young men. sound of mind and strong of body, due to the excellent training received during their four years at the College, will receive their diplomas and step out from the seclusion of school life into the hustle and bustle of worldly cares. Some of these young men will pursue higher studies, some will immediately start out in business, while some few. mayhap, may follow a loftier and holier vocation, the holy priesthood of God. In retrospect we recall the month of September, in the year 1923. when these students came from the different grammar schools in the city to enroll as Freshmen in the High School department. l‘he smaller lads were placed under the able tutelage of Mr. Ed. J. Ccen. and formed the class known as First High A. The other division. First High ”B. comprised the larger fellows, future Varsity material. as their teacher. Mr. Falvey. S. J.. used to put it. In their Sophomore year the classes were still separated. Second A being taught by Mr. Moffatt. S. J.. and Second B by Mr. Crowley. S. J.. and Fr. Deignan. S. J. A feature of this year was the high spirit of rivalry between the two classes. In selling tickets and in getting ads for the school publications they vied for leadership, and in sports they eagerly endeavored to vanquish one another. In their Junior year. Mr. Moffatt. S. J.. remained at the helm of Third A” and Mr. Madigan. S. J.. taught Third B.” At last the two classes merged into one. under the direction of Mr. King. S. J. From the very start of their Senior year the finished product was becoming evident. Able speakers, able students, able athletes, all helped to make the year a grand success in every sense of the word. 'Their spirit was unbounded. The Seattle College Echo of 1927 is a sample of their loyalty and pep. In every phase of school life they have broken into the limelight and have won their share of the honors. There is every reason to believe that the students of this Senior class will live up to the reputation they have already established. The training they have received has instilled high and lofty principles into their minds and hearts which will enable them to maintain their idea of right and wrong in an immoral and corrupt world. May their future years be as successful and as prosperous as the ones they have already spent at their dear Alma Mater. c OALMA MATER, ere we say good-bye. And leave your balls with deep, regretting sigh. We must, in spirit, look adown the years And live again the happiness and tears Of days gone by. Enkindle, kindly Muse. My sluggish heart: my listless soul enthuse! n % (� s K y X X X X In retrospect we see ourselves again As tiny Freshmen, little First High men. In Second High and Third we tasted fame— It is no boast—nor ever suffered blame. The passing class of '27 stands. We go! To other fields: to other lands. One glimpse of Fourth High champions. O Muse. Before thy potent spell our spirits lose. There's 'Andy.'’ Rourke. and Bahl and speedy Schmidt: For aught but baseball they don't care a bit. And there’s Arena of the silver tongue. And there's “Bill” Lockwood, of the lusty lung. I see O'Connor and O'Callaghan And Scblosser too. another Irishman. Ed Brandmeier and Jerry ' Haughian shine As brilliant stars in the forensic line. There's big Jim Barton, music'ly inclined. And Art McMullen of the Latin mind: John Corrigan, and Siff. and Dick and Ed. And Hemmen. small, but not a trifle dead. And here's to trombone Bras who makes us deaf. And here's to Graf—not graft—our worthy chef: To Agdamag of pugilistic whim. To Ausman. Lord, and Sheehy— Bud and ' Jim. Ralph Claudon loves to strive in fistic bout: No wonder. Tunney couldn't knock him out. Vice-President McMullen breaks the rule: He's Vice of all the jobs there are in school. There’s Goerig and AI Hurley, two in one. ”A1 Ficker too. reducing to a ton. And Hurley—John, and Pigott. Rip he's styled. And Krebs, a noisy boy and somewhat wild. O Muse, whose features clear do I now read? Our well-beloved President. Jack Meade! Our little ship of state he ably sailed Nor ever as our gubernator failed. One more! A word of praise is quickly sung: John Lyons, so tis told in brief, died young. The vision fades: the spell is o’er. In vain I strain once more to see my friends again. Since in the past I can no longer dwell I give to each my friends, a fond farewell. 'X srai LJ n Top: Mat Adam. Rauch. Duel. Seuloei. f. F. yan Yapp Hell. Hamilton S'txt: Meade. Raab. Murray.

Vin MacAdam. our literary genius, was given the position of Secretary, while Harold Malone, a treasurer with many years of experience, was entrusted with complete control of all our financial affairs. The equally important office of Athletic Manager was put into the able hands of John Bilsborrow. At the mid-year elections Duane Peabody was elected President and Joe McCullough. Vice-President, while the other three officers retained their positions. J. McCullough. F. Egan. J. Edgerton. E. Olney and T. Meade represented the class in football and did their part to uphold the athletic reputation of Third Year High. In the interclass basketball league. Third High won all honors, securing first place without a single defeat. T. Hoban. T. Meade. J. Hamilton and H. Hazel starred for us in the hoop sport. Musical talent seems to abound in this class, for we have contributed John Bilsborrow. the super-saxophonist, and two excellent fiddlers. Harry Hazel and Harold Malone, to the orchestra: while many other musicians of repute are in our midst. In all of the other school organizations we have had our representatives. MacAdam. Hazel. De Donato and McCullough showed pep as members of the Echo staff. Peabody’s interest in the Palestra was a great help to the paper’s success. T. Meade upheld the honor of the class, not only in athletics. but also as President of the Crusade and as winner of the Shakespcrian Contest. D. Peabody brought glory to the whole school by representing Seattle at the Aloysian celebration in Rome. I. By means of the constitution which we formed, we have orderly conducted our meetings and daily recitations. This constitution is our unifying bond, and is the reason for our spirit of organization. With it we pass quietly through the little ups and downs of school-day life: with it as our silent guide, and Fr. Bolster. S. J.. and Mr. Flaherty. S.

Cameron ON SEPTEMBER 7th. we found ourselves about fifty strong, in the largest classroom of the school: and we heard the pleasant news that Mr. McDonnell. S. J.. and Mr. Logan, S. J.. were to be our teachers during the year. Prospects looked bright, for we not only had numbers but we had quality of every sort. The room was simply ablaze with stars in football, basketball, baseball, cartoonists, newspaper editors, musicians, and thespians to spare. Finally, all these had the desire to give their best to the class of '29. and also to the best interests of the school. In unity there is strength, so the first week had hardly closed when we entered into solemn convention to elect the guardians of our destinies for the year. The undisputed merits resulting from duties well performed in Freshman year, soon determined the election: Joe Richards. President: Phil Poth. Vice-President: Dick Meade. Secretary: Beefa' O'Keefe. Treasurer: Jack Redhead. Athletic Manager: Jim Galbraith. Palestra Staff. The business that immediately demanded attention was the editing of a class paper on a grander scale. Hitherto it had simply been read at the class meetings. Something better was planned. The weekly was to be published and sold at the news stand, at the popular price of two cents. The name chosen was The Sophomore Loudspeaker. Jim Galbraith was appointed editor-in-chief, with full liberty to choose his own staff. Larry MacDonald. Charles McMullen and Jack Redhead composed a capable trio of assistants. The paper was printed weekly and received with delight by not only class members but by all in general. At the time the Echo was going to print, work was begun on the class Annual, under the direction of the above named editors. Second I ear High Cont'mued In making out a representative team in over-head football. Jack Redhead experienced a deal of difficulties. Eleven men were all that could play on a team, while Jack could have put two teams of superior ability on the field. Throughout the season we ran a neck-to-neck tie with the Senior High, and it took to the end of the season to decide which was the better team. Our graduates proved to be six points better. As the football season was going along successfully it came our turn to do our share in the school celebration of the tercentenary of St. Aloysius. The Freshman class “A” had preceded us with a very instructive portrayal of the meaning of devotion to the saint. We were at a loss for a vehicle until Mr. Flaherty. S. J.. composed a one-act drama of the crisis in the Saint's life—the period when he was endeavoring to obtain his father's permission to take up the religious life. Our score of thespians settled the rest. Walt Scott and Leo Leonetti took the leads. In chronicling the events of our year, we sadly enter into the inter-class basketball league. Although possessed of excellent material, our men could not get going, and at the season’s close we found ourselves dangerously close to the cellar. Inter-class indoor and baseball quickly covered over this poor showing. In both we placed second. As the Christmas vacations loomed in the distance our thoughts turned to College Night. Several class meetings were held and multifarious suggestions offered with the final result that a program of class songs, a comic dialogue, and class oration was decided upon. The class prepared the songs and Galbraith and Walt Scott prepared the dialogue and speech. Again we bowed to our graduating class, but not in ignoble defeat. The Seniors deserved the prize with their well-rounded entertainment. We cannot close this catalogue of happenings without a word about our cooperation in school activities. From the accounts of the athletic feats it is evident that we contributed more than our share in the various school teams. It also is apparent from our achievements on the stage that some of the boys would walk the boards in the High School Play. “Too Many Smiths” was substantially aided by two leads and one minor from the Sophomores. On the business side of the Echo we discover Arnold Manning in every part of the city in quest of advertising. Jack Redhead and George Handley handed in a large quantity of such necessary accoutrements. It is hardly necessary to add what we did in class matters. Our work was outlined in the catalogue and we saw to it that nothing was omitted. Caesar proved no obstacle to us for we “rode” through him as did his cavalry through the Gauls. We proved in geometry that you cannot possibly get a square circle, and that no matter how large a triangle is. you can only get one hundred and eighty degrees—something “Scotchy about those three lines. We have covered the history so well that O’Meara is writing a textbook of his own. Now that we look over the year we find that we have realized a great deal and we re glad that kind fortune threw us together. The exams will be soon upon us and we hope that a thorough repetition of the year’s matter will put us across the tape ensemble, and that together we will be out for fresh laurels in the succeeding year.

Twenty-four in all. the class has acted as a single unit in all its endeavors. From the opening of school, in September, it was evident that this little class was to be a leader in every activity demanding loyalty. This was due. in no small measure, to the happy choice of an efficient staff of officers. Bernard Burke, former student body president of St. Joseph's .School was placed at the wheel by an almost unanimous vote, and with a masterful hand has guided the destinies of the class to the great satisfaction of all. Walter Foley, as Vice-President, ably assisted Mr. Burke in his arduous duties. Frank Carroll was detailed to keep careful account of the weighty business discussed in class meetings, as also to register all famous sayings of the more illustrious members. It was Frank's duty also to relieve the boys of all spare change and to guard it safely in his little tin bank. In both offices Frank was a grand success. Class athletics were entrusted to the care of Fred Rosaia. last year's twirler for St. Benedict's famous ball team. f The choice of the motto. Res Non Verba.” was as felicitous as it has proven appropriate. Led by the inspiring thought that, love is shown more by deeds than by words. the little class has developed a spirit of noiseless activity which is simply irresistable. First A bovs made no promises: no boasting was ever permitted to sully their lips, but no class has surpassed them in loyal support of school activities. L When the call for the Aloysian Crusade was sounded. First A stepped to the fore and. in their little one-act play. The Aloysian Club.” covered themselves with everlasting glory. Their first appearance met with such enthusiastic 51 F 3rsi High '4 A9 f Continued'] applause that they were recalled to the footlights on ten successive occasions. It was the members of this class who issued the first number of the Aloysian. a student publication devoted to the interests of the Aloysian Bicentenary Celebration. When the Palestra was in need of support. First A showed the spirit that was in it by turning in over two hundred dollars' worth of advertising and refusing to accept the customary ten per cent offered as a premium. The second semester was rolling smoothly along when the drive for the Annual was announced. Here. too. the small boys gave an admirable demonstration of loyalty. Nothing was left undone by the enthusiastic youngsters to insure the success of the enterprise. The class treasury was drained of its last hard-won penny to pay for a class advertisement: this meant the sacrificing of the customary class picnic but First A boys had learned the meaning of generosity and they made the sacrifice with a smile. Again, on the first day of the subscription drive, the full subscription price was paid for every member of the class, a point in which the little boys were unequaled by any class in the school. Within four weeks First A had earned for the Annual over five hundred dollars, and this without the least noise and with no hope or desire of reward. To mention all who deserve praise for their work in the Annual drive were to mention every member of the class. However. outstanding and worthy of special mention, was Maurice Dunn, who alone brought in over one hundred dollars. In student organizations the class is well represented. The Junior Sodality. the Library, the Palestra and Echo, have on their staffs members of First A. while on the campus every sport has drawn players from A-l athletes. Although the class cannot boast of numbers it has on its roll many whose names will, no doubt, one day be written large on the pages of history. Master Daniel Eshom is without question the smallest and at the same time the most popular boy in the school. Dan is indeed a very small boy. with a very big smile, very red hair, and a very loud knock when he wishes admission to a room. During the past year Dan held the unique position of Assistant Secretary to the Reverend Dean, and in this official capacity, made a daily tour of the class rooms checking up on all absent or tardy pupils. Dan gave a brilliant demonstration of his business ability, when, to aid the Annual, he conducted a two-day cake and candy sale, realizing some twenty dollars. No one who knows Dan questions that he will one day be President of our country. But it is impossible to write the history of all the A-l luminaries that during the past months have helped to make glorious the history of the school. We only hope that the beautiful spirit of generosity, loyalty, and manly piety so manifest during their first year at Seattle College may be taken as a promise of greater things in years to come. lUrneid A.

McClain n 10 CHRONICLE the events in the order of time and importance since we X assembled here last September is no small responsibility, especially when one realizes that whatever is printed in the Echo becomes historic. However. we cheerfully undertake the task because there is nothing but pleasant and ever-cherished memories to be recorded. During the first weeks, four important indications of our progress in mind and body were frequently emphasized, namely: good manners, manly conduct, activity in sports and diligence in studies. That these qualities have been inculcated and willingly practiced is daily demonstrated in and out of class. All the teachers here are interested in all of the boys and Mr. Coen, our teacher, is no exception. His chief aim is to guide our inexperienced steps along the way that leads to honor and renown. We have had the benefit also during the first semester of Mr. Moffatt’s zealous efforts in piloting us through our first flights in higher English. Without any idle boast, we believe we have the select of the best material from the nine parishes represented in our class. From the names listed above, the reader may get an idea of the personnel of First High B.” Much of the success of any body or institution depends on the ability of the officers and directors. So. to the following fellows we are greatly indebted: L. Carmody, President: B. Mahoney. Vice-President: R. Sheehan. Secretary; W. McClain. Treasurer: R. McGrath. Editor: J. Veak. Athletic Manager: A. Lord. Palestra Representative: and John Ivers. Chairman of Debates. i 5 First Feai High ‘.B {C In the activities, elsewhere chronicled, many of the above names are listed. From the first, our class entered everything that was going on. and the records of inter-class and high school contests speak for themselves. As we pen this brief sketch of our class, our hopes are strengthened for a place of honor, if not first place, in the inter-class baseball games. Many of our fellows, such as McClain. Martin. O'Donnell. Haus. M. and J. Evoy. Sexton. Green. McGrath and Trippy were stars in the Parish Leagues last year, and all arc now welded together as the College Midgets, under the capable direction of Mr. J. O'Neill. S. J. Mr. King. S. J.. who prefects on the campus during the noon hour, has treated us first-class. Through his kindness, we have had ample use of the grounds and a square deal in all contests. The sport spirit was evident in our class from the start. Rain or shine our fellows kept up the games. Indoor baseball between teams, made up from the class, were kept battling until the baseball season came. Debates were held once a week during the first semester. Subjects of local and vital interest were handled, and brought out some promising talent. Thos. Sheehan. Edmund O'Callaghan. Joe Danz, John Evoy. E. Green and John Veak gave us many a lively and interesting afternoon. John Ivers was chairman of debates, and conducted them with great ability and credit to himself. The Friday afternoon class meetings are always looked forward to as a time for business and pleasure. They are conducted in a strictly parliamentary way. and hence are useful and instructive. Edward Carmody. our president, takes the place of authority, wields the gavel and declares the assembly in session. The program begins with Richard Sheehan reading the record of the previous meeting: all officers then make their reports, which are acted on promptly. Frosh Fodder. our class paper, edited by Ray McGrath, is then circulated, and the stories and jokes usually have the intended effect. Ray is a clever writer and selects his material with an appropriateness that displays a tactful mind. It is only a matter of days now until we shall pass from Freshman class. No. we are sure not glad to be through with Freshman, except in this respect, that we shall advance in wisdom and knowledge along the lines pointed out to us during our first year. We all anticipate a wonderful class picnic. The Boys' Camp at Gilberton has been selected for some days and nights, measured, of course, by weather and funds. We hope to see our school become a great, big. select place, and with this in view, we are going to do what we can for the Gym and in bringing good boys to the College next year. li. craJ Mahoneu on tinued )6 Organizations ♦ I Ike Student C o l l ill C l I FUNCTIONING in the first year of its existence, the Student Council has become a very necessary organization in school activities. It consists of the Class Presidents and Adviser. Pr. McNamara, and is primarily democratic. because it is the voice of the students. Although it has no set time of meeting, the Council is called whenever an important activity is to be launched. It has been found that the student body meetings do not accomplish much in the way of concrete results, and that separate class meetings are more liable to determine matters and bring out real student opinion. Therefore these Class Presidents arrive at satisfactory decisions in their respective classes, meet as the Council, and having full power to speak for those whom they represent, together with Fr. McNamara, guide the destinies of school activities. That the students fully appreciate the benefits and power of this organization has become more and more evident, by the manner in which they have responded to this system. Whole class meetings are given to instructing the Presidents as to how the class wishes him to voice their opinions in the Council. Therefore, in these Councils every representative has a thoroughly formulated policy to follow, and no time is lost in developments. Of course, majority rules in the Council and the voice of the many carries the most weight, but nevertheless the result of any decision has always brought the harmonious cooperation of the student body. Essentially this organization is the same as our nation's Congress, and represents true government of the people. May it thrive and prosper! c C2CSC2C iS J. Meade J. McCullough J. Richards It. Hu ike H. Mahoney 4 O MEMBERS of the Seattle College High School the year 1926-27 will ever be outstanding in the history of their student life. Heretofore the student body of the entire school had been one organization including both the College and High School departments. 1'his year, however, with the hope of securing greater efficiency in the handling of school activities, and in order to allow freer scope for unhampered initiative in each department, it was decided to separate the College and High School into distinct groups and to establish each as an independent organization. This announcement was enthusiastically received by members of the High School department and the manly, business-like way in which they assumed the responsibility placed upon them, as well as the success of all the activities entrusted to their care is sufficient proof that the change was a marked improvement over the old regime. To conduct the business of the new organization, officers were elected who. with remarkable efficiency, soon bad the machinery of the Association in perfect running order. By an almost unanimous vote. Jack Meade, of Fourth Year High, was chosen to fill the office of President and. with the experience obtained through loyal co-operation in all school activities during his four years at Seattle College, very ably guided the destinies of the Association in the early days of its new-found life. Kenneth McMullen, holding the office of Vice-President, assisted his superior officer, while Harold Malone as Secretary. George Rourke as Treasurer, and William Anderson as Athletic Manager proved more than satisfactory in conducting the business of their respective offices. Since the High School Student Body Association received its official status as an independent organization in the school an unprecedented spirit of progressive enthusiasm has entered into the younger members of the Institution which presages well for the future of the High School department. We trust that this spirit will continue to flourish and produce fruit a hundred fold. Pike Letter Chat) Heck: Lord. An Jet ion. J. SI cede S ext: liiht. Ilaiib. T. Sited,-. Rourke. Duct. R.

J.. f aculty Sloderaloe A MONG the great achievements of Seattle College High School this year is the forming of an organization known as the Seattle College High School Lettermen's Club. This was primarily formed for the furtherance of Athletics in the school, and to bring a closer friendship among the honored men who wear the emblem of Seattle College High School in the major sports. It also aims at cementing the tie of harmony and good-fellowship which exists between the faculty and the athletes. In former times the Lettermen’s Club was merely an honorary society, but now it has added to its constitution a program of Activity.’' Although organized for but a brief half-year, the club has already established and sponsored the minor sports of Tennis. Track. Golf. Boxing and Swimming, and has made provisions for social functions and entertainments: in short it has done everything possible to bring back that reai College Spirit of yore. Any student who has merited an emblem in a major sport, necessarily belongs to the club. The executive heads of this group of over thirty honored men are: Mr. F. Logan. S. J.. Faculty Moderator: Kenneth McMullen '27. President: Gerald Haughian '27. Vice-President: Joe McCullough '28. Secretary: George Rourke '27. Treasurer: and James O’Connor 'll. Sergeant-at-Arms. These men have worked hard and faithfully, in co-operation with the other members, to build and permanently establish this Club. In Athletics. Seattle College High School is little known as yet. but with the start we now have the time is not far distant when everyone will know that we are capable of coping seriously with other high schools in any form of athletic competition. The block S. with H. S., inscribed, is the standard letter and the boys are showing the people of Seattle that there are a lot of good looking athletes wearing the H. S. letter. With prospects so overwhelmingly cheerful, the coming year holds forth bright hopes of success. 40 The Dramatic C In h Rack: Rourke. Haughian. Pigott. Meade Sitting: Re and meter. Hoban. Dillon. Scott. Ruffle. (ircuell, Duet N NO DEPARTMENT of its activities has the College been more fortunate than in Dramatics. As the beginning of the year found but few of the veteran players in school, it was necessary that a new Dramatic organization be effected: one that would give the necessary training in the fundamentals to a large number of students, in order that new talent could be brought to light. This Society was developed immediately, and work began in earnest. Under the very capable direction of Mr. Flaherty. S. J.. a number of highly commendable one-act plays were produced. Prominent among these were The Bishop's Candlesticks. and The Gray Overcoat.” Both were enthusiastically received and both shed light on some surprisingly good talent. To Mr. Granville Egan is due much praise for his excellent interpretation of a most difficult role in The Bishop’s Candlesticks.” And no less praise is due to Jerry Haughian. Bob Pigott and George Rourke for their commendable presentation of “The Gray Overcoat. Of course, too much credit cannot be given Mr. Flaherty. S. J.. without whom nothing would have been possible. As the Echo goes to press the Dramatic Club is working to present its piece de resistance of the season. Phis is a very clever English comedy in three acts and is being prepared under the guidance of Mr. McDonnell. S. J.. who has succeeded Mr. Flaherty. S. J.. as dramatic coach. Mr. McDonnell. S. J.. has at his command a splendid working knowledge of dramatics. 1 his coming play is called Too Many Smiths. with Granville Egan playing the lead. The supporting cast includes Richard Reaney. Eddie Byrne. Walter Scott. Jack Meade, Archie Richardson. Jack Dillon. Jerry Haughian and Bob Pigott. 41 1 File Eelio Sta ff lop: Haiti. Mat Adam. Lyon i. Arms Next: PifOit. Roueke. MtCullouph. R.

Mtadr from: Htmmtn N THESE days of activity and progress in school life, the issuing of a monthly student-publication has become an unquestioned necessity for successfully maintaining a healthful interest in school activity. Seattle College has ever recognized this truth and has bent its best efforts to maintain a high standard of excellence in this department of student organization. The Palestra, as the perfect chronicle of all the really worth-while and noteworthy events of school history as well as the medium for the development of latent literary talent has won for itself the position of an indispensable item in Seattle College student life. The opening of classes, in September, found the time-honored enthusiasm of many aspiring journalists reawakened and the interest of the entire student body in their publication reenkindled, and all looked forward to a successful year. Nor were their hopes disappointed. The appointment of Mr. Edward J. Coen as Faculty Adviser was a happy one and it is to him that we offer our first congratulations on the excellence of the Palestra during the past year. To assist him in his work Mr. Coen selected a staff which, in every detail, displayed remarkable efficiency. John Meade held the office of Fditor-in-Chief. with John Lyons and Francis De Donato as associates. As Sports Editors. Thomas Meade and Vincent MacAdam never failed to have an interesting column for student fans, while William O'Donnell and Duane Peabody as Business Manager and Advertising Manager respectively, kept the paper on a sound financial foot ing. Karl Sifferman looked after circulation. On the reporting staff were Jack Dillon. John Lyons. Thomas Meade. James Galbraith. Herbert Hemmen and Arthur Lord. But while we look upon the success of this year's Palestra as a promise of continued success in the future, it is well to remember that this happy result was obtained only by the whole-hearted interest and cooperation on the part of the entire student body. 44 Hack: O'Keefe.

Grace!! rUH ORCHESTRA this year, as in former years, has proved itself to be one of the most popular organizations in the College. The splendid cooperation of the players, coupled with their extraordinary talent, has helped it to attain this recognition. Though greatly handicapped at the beginning of the year by the loss of I baddeus Parolik. probably one of the best violinists ever enrolled at the College. the orchestra quickly rounded into shape. Harry Hazel and Harold Malone, who have been two of the old dependables for the past three years, took care that the violin section would not hold back the steady march towards improvement. 1 ogether with Arrnand Rousseau. George Flajole and John Bilsborrow. they will form a nice nucleus for next year's orchestra. The selections played this year were of the most difficult, and were it not for the intense application of the musicians, few could have been done justice. Some of the hardest overtures were mastered and a select repertoire of marches was always at hand. Owing to the good spirit existing between the members, the daily practice in the assembly hall proved a period of relaxation as well as of great profit. 1 his year will mark the passing of some of the orchestra's most familiar faces. Among these we must mention Ken McMullen and C. J. Bras, who have been with us for the past four years and have shown a spirit of real loyalty. 4 5 Bark: O'Ktc e. Flajole. Malone, {ouneaa.

I.txkutood A NEW organization that clearly shows the growth of the active spirit in Seattle College, is the group known as the College Entertainers. This club united with the orchestra and with members of the Dramatic Club in presenting programs on various occasions throughout the city. A double quartet consisting of Barton. Rourke. McMullen. Carroll. Lockwood. Bras. O'Connor and Hurley, proved to be an irresistible harmony octet, and the Meade brothers always made a hit with their vocal and instrumental duet numbers. A unique feature of the entertaining group was that everyone of them was a master of at least one musical instrument. The 18th of October saw the Entertainers making their debut before a gathering of the Alumni. That night was put down as an auspicious opening. On Oct. 27th. the mothers were treated to some delectable part songs and solo numbers. 1 wo nights after this, the troupe journeyed to St. Joseph's Parish, where they added some attractive numbers to the Bazaar program. On Nov. 7th they went to the Sacred Heart Orphanage and gave a song and dance program, which met with very evident signs of delight from the little children. On the evening of Nov. 8th. the Entertainers presented a program for their fathers, and on Dec. 19th. they were busy cheering up the old folks at St. Vincent's Home. 47 rihe IDcIbatmg Society Back: Kean.

Bilsbocrow HE HIGH SCHOOL Debating Society of Seattle College, organized at the opening of the present scholastic term, has established an enviable record during its first year as a student organization. At the initial meeting called by Mr. C. McDonnell. S. J.. Faculty Moderator of the Society, eleven earnest aspirants of Third and Fourth High presented themselves and were received as charter members. At this first meeting officers were elected and the year’s work systematically planned. Edward Brandmeier was elected President, to be assisted in his duties by Gerald Haughian and Theodore Grav-elle as Vice-President and Secretary, respectively. The remarkable success achieved during the year in all their endeavors speaks sufficient praise for the efficiency of the officers in conducting the business of their organization. While the Society was open to all members of the High School, quality rather than quantity was desired, and by the close of the first semester twenty enthusiastic members were on the registers. Regular meetings were held once a week, followed by interesting and spirited debates on current subjects which brought to light and developed not a few able speakers. In looking over the records of forensic activities for the year, we find that one of the fairest plumes in the bonnets of the youthful orators was the victory won by them over the strong and well-known Stevens Debating Society of the University of Washington. This memorable victory was registered by Edward Brandmeier and Gerald Haughian. both of Fourth Year High. who. on the occasion, displayed remarkable oratorical skill and won the applause of all who heard them. A public debate, held for the entertainment of the Everett Council of the Knights of Columbus, brought the Society again into the limelight and added greatly to its daily increasing fame. 48 Our I.ibruru Room X lie S L:.lclen s, Latrary A LOVE for good reading, an appreciation of the beauties of Literature, an yAs acquaintance with the great minds of history who have bequeathed to posterity the riches of their God-given genius is an asset which, in a student. cannot be loo highly valued, liver mindful of this. Seattle College has taken care to keep within easy access of her pupils, works from the very best authors in every department of Literature. In the early days of the school's pioneering a modest Students' Library was begun. From year to year, through the kindness of interested friends and the generosity of the students, this humble foundation has grown until today the College has a library of over nine thousand volumes, of which it is justly proud. The books are indexed according to the Dewey Decimal System and circulation is conducted according to the method in vogue in the public libraries. Three comfortable reading rooms, open during the noon recreation period, afford the students ample opportunity for reading and research work. To insure greater interest in this department, the management of the Library is in the hands of the students themselves, aided by the faculty adviser. Mr. John F. Moffatt. S. J. During the past three years. John Lyons. '27. has faithfully held the office of Head Librarian. He is at present ably assisted by Victor Hemmcn. '27, Herbert Hemmen. '30, and Leonard Eshom. '30 Tlie Stbuwtenfs’ Store rHF STUDENTS’ Co-op Store of Seattle College has. during the past year, enjoyed an immense amount of prosperity. Lorn Berry, our football coach, was in charge of the store during the first semester. After Tom's departure it was placed in the hands of a few willing students. Olney. now. is the boss and chief Hamburger Handler. Graf is the Head Cook. Carmody brothers are the waiters and chief Bottle Washers. and Neil Murray is the illustrious Milkman. Brother Dunne is the unknown man who. by his business ability, diligently steers the destiny of the Ship of Grub. He is the Treasurer of the ‘•'Co-op Store and through him it has enjoyed a year of success. The store, as everyone knows, is not run for a profit, because all the extra money it takes in goes back to the students in the way of Athletics, i. e. for the equipment of the Football.

At the first meeting of the year a fortunate choice named John Lyons. Prefect: Harold Malone. F:irst Assistant: Victor Hemmen. Second Assistant, and John Corrigan. Secretary-Treasurer: and the happiness and success of the sodality year were due in great part to this felicitous selection of officers. Meetings were held weekly in the students' chapel. Fervor in reciting the office and attention in listening to the instructions increased as the year went on. Love of our Blessed Mother and imitation of Her virtues were the lofty aims set before the eyes of the sodalists. Apostolic works of charity were performed and special interest was manifested in all the Aloysian activities. Leaflets explaining the Aloysian plan of life were distributed in the Catholic schools of the diocese and signatures of the pledgers were secured and sent to Rome with the delegates. Membership in the sodality was limited to those who kept a good average in their class work and who strove to increase in their love and practice of solid goodness and piety. Students esteemed it a privilege to be a Sodalist and members themselves tried and will continue trying to became a little more worthy of the honor of being Standard Bearers of Our Queen and Mother.

[ Early in the year the Soda lists chose an efficient fv staff of officers to guide them in their activities, f KKSB Joseph Richards, of Second High, was given the honorable position of Prefect, with John Carey and Philip Starbuck. of the same class, as first and second assistants respectively. John Redhead was elected Secretary-Treasurer, and conducted the business of his dual office very satisfactorily. John Evoy held the office of Sacristan, while Bernard Burke. Herbert Hemmen and Edward Joteph S. Richardi Carmody were the honorable Consultors. 1 he spirit of the Junior Sociality during the past year has been very praiseworthy. Meetings were attended with edifying regularity and all Sodality activities entered into with an interest and energy that showed clearly the manly devotion of the youthful clients of Mary. Through personal sacrifices they gathered, during the year, the sum of one hundred and fifty dollars to purchase a statue of Our Blessed Mother.

Loyalty and enthusiasm was the key-note of the initial meeting and of all subsequent activities. The Junior and Senior members of the Sodality of i, the B. V.

Fshorn T HE BICENTENARY of the canonization of St. Aloysius. occurring on the A 1 st of December. 1926. aroused in the youths of the whole Catholic world a spirit of holy emulation in showing due honor to their saintly Patron. Nor was Seattle College outdone in this movement by any school in America. Responding promptly to the voice of the Holy Father, the students of Seattle College made the Aloysian Crusade the big event of the first semester of the scholastic year. With the opening of classes in September, all the talent of the youthful admirers of the Boy Saint was called upon to make the celebration an epoch in the school’s history. Two Aloysian playlets. staged by the small boys, won no little praise and did their share in awakening devotion to the Patron of youth. Pamphlets explaining the Aloysian Rule of I.ife were procured by the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin and distributed to the boys in nearly every Catholic school in the city by delegates who visited them personally and invited them to come to the College and sign the Aloysian Pledge. Not to be behind the other schools of the country in responding to the call of the Holy Father. Seattle College chose two of her students. Richard Reaney and Duane Peabody, and sent them to Rome to carry the pledges to the tomb of the Saint and to assist at the final celebration on December 31. To perpetuate the devotion to St. Aloysius aroused during the Bicentenary celebrations, the Crusaders meet on the last day of each month and publicly renew their solemn pledge to follow the Aloysian plan of life.

'27 'i.j UA n V n u J I WAS a glorious evening in June, wondrous, sparkling, and pleasantly cool. In the crowded auditorium of St. Stanislaus High School. Commencement exercises for the year were being held. The graduating class consisted of some fifty boys of all descriptions and characters. There were tall boys and short boys, stout boys and thin boys, handsome boys and ugly boys: there were boys of weak character and boys of strong character, and boys who were neither weak nor strong: there were athletes and orators, actors and students, leaders and those who merely followed the crowd. But it is with only two of this group that we are at present concerned. Roy Baxter was a good boy: no one would deny that: but he was weak. He needed a guiding hand to hold him to his course. Without that hand he was like a rudderless boat drifting about at the mercy of the waves. Jack Collins, a fellow classmate, was of a sterling character, strong with the strength that never flinches in the face of trial or danger. In their class, both were high, and the race for the honors was a close one. But tonight, before the assembled multitude. Roy was proclaimed the medal winner, and Jack, a close second. During the summer vacation. Roy had the misfortune to fall in with a good-for-nothing crowd of boys. He was so influenced by them that he started to college in the fall with the sterling ideals of his high school days noticeably lowered. Jack, on the other hand, worked hard during the summer, received the Sacraments frequently, and kept his moral life unblemished: for Jack was a rock that was immovable. Being fairly well acquainted. Roy and Jack went to the same college, and as neither had seen the other during the summer they were very glad to meet again. Roy found Jack to be his same old self, but it was not long before Jack observed the change that had come over his friend. His manner of speech was different: it had grown careless and indelicate. “Roy.” said Jack a little sadly, as they met one evening on the campus. What’s come over you? Why don't you get hold of yourself and try to be a man?” Roy shifted uneasily and the conversation ended as abruptly as it had begun. On registering. Jack had obtained a room with a boy of his own disposition. while Roy lodged with a lad with whom he had chummed during the summer. Roy was always up to some mischief with the consequent result of a fast-declining reputation, while Jack was soon becoming one of the most popular boys of the school. He was in all the activities, was an athlete of no mean ability, and. in fact, was an example of a real Jesuit College boy. Four years, with all the varied ups and downs of college life, had finally elapsed, and Jack was graduating with honors while Roy. who had tripped up in his final examinations, had still another year to go. The former had grown to be a man: a man in the fullest sense of the word. The latter—we will judge of him by his conduct a few years hence. A few years slipped away and Jack and Roy were fighting the battle of life, but how differently we shall see. The former had already made a good start: he had a wife and a home and a fine little family. He and his new business partner—as he called his wife—were fervent Catholics, and. as before. y V 56 i bj 4 Skad ows Lifted” Continued were models in every way. With God’s blessing upon them they were reaching success faster than all expectations despite the fact of two new additions to the family. Roy was just beginning life, two years behind his former friend. I'he carelessness of his college days had sapped his moral strength and it was with little heart that he faced the difficulties of life. Religion too, had come to mean but little to him. He never received the Sacraments any more and rarely went to Mass. He had married a girl of a fast crowd outside the Church and. needless to say. their happiness was short lived. The two never talked with their friends about their business dealings for fear of being found out. for Roy had connected himself with a shady set of swindlers who were getting rich quick by robbing poor widows of their money, by the sale of worthless stocks and bonds. One day. some years later, while on his way to the bank of which he was now cashier. Jack came upon a little child of about three years of age playing in the street in front of an orphanage. Something in the child’s appearance aroused Jack's interest: he had seen that little face before, he told himself, but where, he could not recall. The impression was so intense that he paused for a moment to talk to the child. What’s your name, sonnie?” he said. Dannie.” answered the child. Dannie what? asked Jack. “Dai's all. came the little one’s reply. Jack Collins was really interested by this lime and took the child inside to find out more about him. He called for Sister Superior. Sister.” he said, I found this little lad outside and took a liking to him. And besides, there is something about his appearance that makes me curious. Can you tell me anything about him ?” Yes. the good nun answered. His name is Daniel Baxter. His father and mother were divorced two years ago. Some months later the mother was killed in an automobile accident and now the father is also thought to be dead. What was the father’s name. Sister.’ asked Jack, intensely excited. Roy Baxter. Jack was astonished, but. controlling himself, he said. I'll probably be back to see you again. Sister. I'm really interested in this child. After the day’s work Jack dashed home all excited. What's the matter. Jack? asked his wife. Ah-a-a-a.” stuttered Jack. Now calm yourself. Jack. Come, tell me. has something happened? she pleaded. Do you remember how the Baxters disappeared after Roy's company was found to be swindling, some four years since?” Yes.” Well, they had a cute little boy three years ago. They were divorced soon after, and last year the mother was killed: so Roy put the boy in an orphan home here in town ancf he is now also thought to be dead. That’s news. But what of it?” Well. Mary. I thought we would be doing the right thing by my old classmate if we were to adopt the child.” But aren’t you satisfied with your own four children without looking for more? Oh. well, all right.” she said, seeing his hurt expression. So all was 8 X 8 57 3C Shadows IL Ilfied {Continued] lovely. Dannie was adopted: and meanwhile, there was no sight of Roy Baxter. So time went on. Ten years elapsed and Mr. Jack Collins was president of his bank, had a boy and giri in high school, while Dannie and the two youngsters were in the grade school. One day a man stumbled up the steps of the Collins mansion. He was thin and haggard. A month's beard covered his face and his clothes were ragged and dirty. He knocked at the door: the maid responded and was amazed at the pitiful figure before her. “For God's sake, help me. lady. I'm sick. wailed the wretched creature. He was invited in. where he fell in a heap on the floor. The maid rushed into the living room where Mary sat reading, and exclaimed excitedly. Madam, there’s a man out in the kitchen who is sick. What shall 1 do? X X X x x X X Mary went quickly to the kitchen. The man saw her coming, staggered to his feet and gasped: Ah. Mary, at last a friend; “Who are you. may I ask? said Mary startled. “I'm Roy Baxter. Don't you remember me? I'm dying. Won't you call a priest? Mary was shocked, but recovering herself, she said to the maid: Janette, call Father Burke. Doctor Allen and Mr. Collins immediately. Five minutes later good Father Burke was at Roy's side. Dr. Allen came also and examined the patient, who by this time was in a bed in the guest room. “He won't last long. Mrs. Collins: half an hour at the best. was his verdict. Roy was very calm now and so Mary brought Dannie to see him. I he poor man was growing weaker every minute, but was not so far spent that he could not recognize his child and show his gratitude. Father Burke administered the Last Sacraments, and prepared the dying man to meet his God. Suddenly Jack burst into the house, all red and excited. 'Who's sick? he shouted. “Roy. said Mary. “Rov? Roy Baxter? Where on earth did he come from? How is he? “Pretty low. Jack. The doctor says he cannot live. she answered. Jack ran upstairs to the guest room and for the next few minutes there were many happenings. It was almost the end now. and Roy weakly turned to Jack and murmured: “God bless you and Mary. Jack: you have been too good to me. “And God bless Dannie, who will ever be our fond remembrance of you. Roy. whispered Jack. ECHO £ lie Angelic 'Yomili By John H.

Arena, winner of annual High School Oratorical Contest.) MY TASK this evening, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the greatest moment and importance. I shall endeavor to speak of the grandeur and excellence of our American Constitution and to dwell for a moment on the extraordinary mentality and stalwart character of one of the greatest of all American statesmen. James Madison. Furthermore, I shall endeavor to show how this same James Madison is intimately connected with the birth and growth of our country's code of laws, and how it is not without deep reason and solid argument that he has been given the lofty title of Father of the American Consti tut ion. To justify this title I shall bring forth three substantial reasons or proofs. Madison is the Father of the American Constitution first because he was responsible for the final realization of the necessity of a stronger bond of union than the country had in the Articles of Confederation: second, because he was responsible for the Philadelphia Convention and for the Virginia Plan aspect of the Constitution: third, because as President, he was a man according to the spirit of our nation s Constitution. That James Madison was awake to the needs of our country during the trying times of the Critical Period is denied by no fair-minded student of American History. But that he was directly responsible for the final awakening of the country to its dangerous weakness may be doubted. Our country, ladies and gentlemen, had just emerged victorious from the War of Independence. During this war the people of the states were unified against one common enemy as brother unites with brother against a family foe. But when the memory of the war began to fade, and home interests began to occupy the mind, the individual states began to lift their independent heads in pride and selfish disdain of their fellow states. The Articles of Confederation were adopted, but the conventions were not attended and the central government had not as much power as the various states. Debts piled up. and measures for Federal taxation were scoffed at and jeered. Europe ridiculed us and awaited the collapse of the Infant Nation, while the wiser American heads thought and sought for a decisive remedy. Among these calm, deep-thinking Americans there loomed a master mind, who was becoming prominent in the Virginia State Assembly. James Madison, a profound University student and a scholar perfectly acquainted with the social and political temperature of our country, was the first to stand forth and boldly proclaim that Congress be granted additional powers, especially the power to levy taxes and levy import duties. In one of the ablest of his state papers, an address to the states. Madison showed conclusively that the weak government was tottering from lack of power, and that no slight or merely accidental amendment to its Articles could save it. The crisis had come, and the occasion demanded that the ax be laid to the root. Cut down the state power, build up the central government! And the people began to realize that Madison of Virginia was right—that an essential change was necessary. He had made the people see the dire need of a bond of union stronger than the Articles of Confederation. And now for our second point. James Madison was responsible for the Philadelphia Convention and for the Virginia Plan, upon which our present Constitution has been based. To give a detailed historical account of this great achievement is not for us here: but our argument will not be complete if we do 60 Mac lason, flie Father of the C onstitution [Continued not mention that the boundary dispute between Virginia and Maryland was settled only after Madison proposed a convention of two states. And when Madison saw the convened delegates from these two states he suggested inviting Pennsylvania and Delaware to join in the arrangement: and then, seeing the opportunity for more general unity in regard to commerce and trade and a chance for more central power in the Federal Government, he caused a resolution to be adopted in the Virginia Legislature to the effect that all the states be invited to send their commissioners. This led to the Annapolis Convention in 1 786, and that in turn led to the decisive Philadelphia Convention of 1 787. As the time for this convention approached. Madison devoted every effort of his giant intellect and of his untiring will to drawing up an outline of the new system of government. This outline, better known as the Virginia Plan, embraced some of the essentials that have made our Constitution what it is today—the threefold division of the government, the Federal power of taxation and punishment, the two houses of Congress, and representation not only according to states but also according to population. The Virginia Plan was the basis of the deliberations in this convention, which adopted the Constitution on the 17th of September. 1787. Madison, after having prepared the outline for the meeting, took a leading part in the debates and of all these proceedings he kept full and careful notes, which were afterwards published by order of Congress. Nor did he stop his energetic labors when this magnificent code of laws was drafted. In his debates with such opponents as Patrick Henry. James Monroe. Benjamin Harrison and John Tyler. Madison was at his best, and the result was a sweeping victory against an originally adverse opinion. And now we come to our last point and to one which is often used to throw the mud of shame and ignominy upon the fair name of our grand patriot —I speak of Madison as President. Ladies and gentlemen, there are times when the human heart is angered to such an extent as to force the passionate victim to break down in tears: there are times when the great big souls of mighty men collapse and shed tears of magnanimous devotion. 'I bis, fellow citizens, is the reaction and this the ready answer of any loyal American to the scoffing of traitors at Madison the President. That there may have been anxiety and trouble during Madison’s two terms as President, we are not here to deny. But deny we must, and deny we shall, that the bitter War of 181 2 lessens in any degree the glory of James Madison as Father of the American Constitution. Who can be so unfair and so narrowminded as to forget the splendid work that Madison did in framing the Constitution. simply to bring into prominence, to hold up to ridicule some slight defect, some tiny mistake in executive judgment. James Madison's name will stand forever as a thinker, as a patriot, as delegate, as Secretary of State and as President: but his chief claim to the honor of true Americans will ever be as the Father of the American Constitution. James Madison caused, created, framed and adorned our nation's monumental code of laws: he gave us a Constitution that will stand forever as the grandest structure of laws in history: he spent his whole life and offered the holocaust of all his earthly usefulness that the foundation of his beloved country's political edifice might be deep enough to endure through the ages. Surely the brilliancy of his name as Father of the Constitution will never grow dim. surely it will never be effaced from the minds of fair-minded, grateful and loyal American citizens. 61 •X K y n V V y r Tike diaraefer of Akraliam Lincoln John H. Lyons, 'll (Sole: This essay icon second place in the 1027 Lincoln Essay Contest.) rHIS country seems to be most singularly blessed in the selection of wise and honest statesmen to guide her destiny. Those men chosen by God to direct this nation over the rough and narrow foot-paths of adversity have invariably lived up to their position of trust. When we look back over the world’s greatest leaders and statesmen and compare them with our own leaders and statesmen, we find on the one hand genius and military skill, and on the other, truth, sincerity and honest endeavor. For those men who guided us were not kings and princes and mighty conquerors, but men born and raised among the people: men filled with the fear and love of God: men who were not born with scepter in hand, or who. on account of their birth alone, were respected and revered by the people: but men who worked their way to the top amid perils and hardships: who had to struggle before the goal could be won: who were loved and honored by the people on account of their real worth. Such a man was Abraham Lincoln. Born in the State of Kentucky, he encountered hardships from his very start in life. He lived the life of a backwoodsman, a farmer, a river-boatman, and finally, by his own efforts at self education and refinement, he realized a life's ambition in the exalted position of President of the United States. Many were the trials he had to undergo: many were the failures and disappointments he had to meet until, by dint of hard labor, study and perseverance, the goal was won. Such a man’s character must have been of the strongest to enable him to meet such hardships of life. But these very difficulties shaped and moulded his character until he was ready for the important task which God had appointed for him. namely, the guidance and leadership of this great country. He grew up side by side with Nature. Later when he had to decide the momentous issue of slavery or freedom, he contributed to the task not a false set ol theories and notions, but a true standard of justice, coming from the soul: filled with the love of labor, the respect of labor, and the honor of labor. Thus did the physical shape the mental. Thus did his early backwoods life fit him for his gigantic task of cutting out an old but deeply-rooted theory from the hearts of his countrymen, and at the same time, of applying the curing balm of kind-heartedness to heal the wound. Many have discussed the question as to whether or not Lincoln was an intellectual man—as if intellectuality could be separated from a man and weighed out in pounds and ounces! His moral and mental powers so blend together that it is impossible to examine them in separate form. I hus. one cannot tell whether any of his wise sayings or speeches come more from a high state of morality ora high state of mentality. This happy combination of the moral and mental is but another effect of his early rugged life. It is a combination which, time after time, man has put asunder. But here in the case of Abraham Lincoln we see a fine example of God’s providence worked out in the highest degree. He had a clear head: he had a sagacious mind: he had a strong will—and all these because of the union of strong moral and mental powers. Another quality of his character was his ability for adaptability to each new phase of a situation. His flexibility resembled the water and the air. for 62 Ci kt) Cl Lt) 1 lie Character of ALrakam Lincoln Conthmed these two common substances will fit themselves into any position. He knew what to do. when to do it. and he did it at the proper time. When he issued the Emancipation Proclamation he realized that the time had come to strike the blow that was to kill slavery for all time: he realized that no other time would do. and that if he waited a week or two all advantage would be lost from such an action. Therefore he acted according to the dictates of a clear head, a sound mind, and a ready will, and struck the blow that doomed slavery's hopes. This vigor characterized all his actions: he was always ready to adapt himself to some new mode of a situation, and he always acted whenever he felt he was justified. And lastly, we come to the crowning point of his character, the incentive that guided all his actions, and without which he would have been like a ship without a rudder tossing about on a storm-swept sea. Lincoln’s religion was the keynote of his success. As was stated before, he grew up side by side with Nature. He learned of God. and learning of Him. loved Him. By Him all his actions were guided. In trials and temptation, in business life and in politics, he looked up to his Creator for help and guidance: and that help and guidance was always present. No matter what one’s creed may be. he may always look up to Lincoln as a model of virtue, a stimulant for honest success. It is small wonder that this grand nation of ours, so great in its area, so widespread in its interests, and so diversified in its religion, has been kept one and inseparable when it has such valiant leaders filled with the fear of God. Lincoln, then, was the father of his people. When in doubt he guided them: when in sorrow he comforted them: when in error he corrected them. The hand that so forcefully struck slavery from the hearts of the people was the hand that calmed the troubled sea of anger which this obnoxious servitude caused. I he heroic heart that was wounded by the false declarations of his fellow citizens, and was eventually stilled forever by the avenging bullet of the assassin, was the gentle heart that embraced and comforted the troubles of all mankind and forced even his enemies to respect and admire him. Lincoln’s character was so magnanimous, so just, so merciful, that it reminds one of the character of Him who long years ago. beside the Galilean lake, reached forth His saving hand to comfort and caress a sin-laden world, and had His heart mercilessly torn open as if to shower upon all the world the magic blood of redemption—as if to drown in this crimson flood the sorrows and woes of all mankind. Tic Swifclk anti tike Cl cl Davitt M. Donohol. '28 A BUNCH of us boys were sitting around in the composing room, swap-ping stories: upon being pressed. I told them this one about the only time in my life I ever seconded a real honest-to-goodness fighter: Terry Galvin, at his first appearance, would not excite anyone. He was slight of stature, modest of manner, and in no wise pugnacious as to looks: yet when seen in action, it was easily realized what a wealth of muscle lay strung and corded like plaited wires beneath his soft, fair skin. Strange as it may seem, this lad was the best lightweight around the old Siwash A. C. He had for his manager. Mike Conley, a once quite popular big-time fighter—once—that is until in an unguarded moment he allowed a big bruiser from Canada to lay him cold as a refrigerator at the north pole. He was of the good old stock: a fighter through and through, but his one failing was to stick to the old method employed by Sullivan. Jeffries and Fitzsimmons, the same being known to those interested in the game of fisticuffs as the kill 'em and drag 'em out method. Galvin was working out one afternoon at the Siwash A. C.. and during my spare time. I journeyed across the city to give him the OO. What a sight for sore eyes he was! Fast as quicksilver and as slippery as a banana peel on a glass sidewalk. Conley was drilling him like a slave driver, making him hurl the medicine ball till the sweat poured out in gushes: anti making him sock the bag until at every blow he threatened to sink in a heap on the floor. I hollered like an old woman at Mike, saying that if he didn't lay off trying to make a bone-crusher and a slugger out of this slightly-built kid. he'd have another failure added to his already long list. Mike. 1 says, you've got a winner, but you're teaching him a losing game: you can't make a club out of a switch. Aw. heck.” he shouts back, cut the comics and see if the kid's style ain't worth a couple of columns and a headline.” I was scooping at the time, and ever ready to accommodate old friends: so I goes back to the office and spilled ink (typewriter ink) to the effect that Terry was in the pink and ready to make short work of Gunner Enright in the little set-to coming off in a few nights. J erry, faithful to Mike Conley as a dog would be. obeyed the old veteran's instructions to the letter, abandoned his own form and settled down to the station of a hard-hitting, rib-smashing, fighting son-of-a-gun. This training was kept up until the day before the fight, when all hard work was suspended and the young bar-fighter was allowed a day of rest. The crowd that packed the old Siwash Gym that night was typical. A bunch of dyed-in-the-wool fans: and. true to the spirit of all such crowds, they went with the best man. except when the other follow came back covered with claret and stood his ground, fighting like a cornered wildcat until the last bell. The curtain-raisers were as usual. Out of the five, two were put down as kayos”: two were a draw, and one a decision. So. by the time T erry Galvin and his opponent Gunner Enright crawled through the ropes, the crowd was ready to throw everything but the club-house itself at the red-faced announcer. Gunner was the usual type of pug. He was sullen, easily angered, and verily a hog for punishment. But he had a glass chin, which he buried in his 1 lie Switfcc! Ii am: a ili c Clu 1) [ Continued] shoulder, and which he had sense enough to keep buried there during a fracas, most of the time. Time: Galvin bores into Enright like an electric drill: he buries a neat one in the Gunner's bread-basket. The opening punch was a wow. and the fight of the evening was on. The bleachers went wild. Then ’ Gunner” lets loose a terrific wallop from the floor that grazes Terry's jaw. They fell into a clinch as the time-keeper tolls the knell. The next three rounds were duplicates of the first, featured by a few good jabs and hooks and plenty of fast footwork. Enright had the edge in two of them. The fifth round opened with a bang. Conley had whispered sweet words of wisdom in Terry’s ear to the effect that he should go into this round and ''get” Enright. In other words, knock him cold. But Gunner turned the tables, and after a flurry of mitts had been untangled and straightened out it was discovered that Terry's legs were not coordinating to the general welfare of their owner. The gong found Galvin stretched out on the mat with a mere four seconds saving him from complete disgrace. Conley, by this time was frantically pulling his hair and showing all the outward signs of absolute despair. I saunters over to him and gives him the 1 told you so.” Whereupon lx bellows out that I can second Terry myself. Did I accept? Don't be funny: why man. I should hope to whistle I did. 1 flew to the poor kid's corner and told him to keep away from the Gunner. 1 told him he couldn't stand up and exchange 'em with Enright. I told him to keep away, to exhibit his old form and at the same time to keep his eye peeled for an opening at that prominent glass chin, and when the opportunity presented itself, to step in and pay his proper respects to it. Holy Moses! I'll never forget that round as long as I live. Enright waited for the accustomed rush from Terry, but when it didn't come, he determined to carry the fight and try a rush himself. He knocked Galvin clean off his feet. The bleachers went into a frenzy. Terry recovered like a cat. straightened up and danced away. The fight looked so much like Enright's that half the crowd—those not used to the game- -began to leave in disgust. Enright was furious, and wanted to finish it up in a hurry. He tore into Terry like a mad bull at a red cloth: his head down, his arms swinging wild in the air. The kid side-stepped to let the Gunner go by and followed him at close range. The Gunner raised up to look for Terry: he turned his head just enough to expose that prize glass jaw—and—SOCK!!! One — two — three — four — five — six — seven — eight — nine — ten. And to this day Mike Conley has never mentioned that little episode of ours concerning a switch and a club. i L3 7 crw r cr rf I’m TLainkfiul ’M THANKFUL for the smiling sun. And for the tearful rain. And for the brimming cup of joy Or grief my lips must drain. For every golden link of love. For every sundered cord. That bind or break the vows we make. I'm thankful, dearest Lord. I'm thankful for the crimson dawn And for the west'ring shades. When hope is bright, or hope's fair light In sable shadow fades. I'm thankful for each blushing rose And for each piercing thorn: For smiles and tears of ebbing years. For love or bitter scorn. More blithely blows the blushing rose When laved with tearful dew— More sweet the heart when sorrow's dart Has pierced it through and through. Then, joy or pain, or loss or gain— Dear Lord. Thy Will be done! For. loss or gain, or joy or pain- — By each is heaven won. Paul J. Graf.

The College Dramatic Club put on a play. The Bishop s Candlesticks.” which proved very interesting. Talbott Carroll, as the bishop's brother, an eccentric old man: Bernard Monohan. as the kindly bishop: Granville Egan as the escaped convict: Jack Dillon, as the handy little boy: and Paul Malone as the gendarme, played their parts to perfection. The College super-soloist orchestra favored the mothers with selections, and earned generous applause. Harry Hazel, the premier violinist, then exhibited talent in the rendition of a difficult concerto. which was heartily encored. The students, both on the entertainment committee and those engaged in the play and orchestra, worked very hard to make the evening a success. One of the best numbers on the program was the presentation of “The Aloysian Club. a one-act play. The players were all First High students, but showed the embryonic talent which in future years will make them stars at the histrionic art. The entertainment was successful and the evening was one of pleasure, as it gave us an opportunity to give a little rest and joy to the hearts of our dearest friends, our mothers. Fathers’ Night ON THE evening of November 8th. Seattle College students honored their fathers with a literary and musical entertainment. Hash O'Neill, of the College Department, was chairman for the evening, and started the program with a very touching expression of affection towards the fathers. Fr. White, S. J.. took the stage and gave some of his dialogues and jokes as only he can do. The Entertainers” then made their debut in song and dance, and gave a very pleasant exhibition of concentrated talent. Solo and part songs, dance numbers, instrumental solos and orchestra numbers were run off in snappy style, and it was all too soon when the curtain was brought down on the melody troupe. The Thespians from among the Freshman Preps then grabbed the limelight and staged their Aloysian play. Bernard Burke, as Tom Playfair, carried the leading role in this playlet, and was ably assisted by Dan and Leonard Eshom. G. O’Keefe. Carl Scarp, and H. Hemmen. Fr. Boland. S. J.. spoke a few warm words of greeting to the daddies. and Judge Charles Moriarty gave some of his straight from the shoulder ideas and ideals in the name of the fathers. The ever-readv College orchestra closed the evening's entertainment with a fitting musical selection. Rttnard .4. Rurkr Harry C. Haiti 68 College Niglii Curald . Ilauvhian 9 HHWAS a night nearing Christmas Jl And all through the school Not a lesson was heard. Nor a single book rule. The students were jammed 'Round the blinding footlights. To stage just one more Of those old College Nights. T WAS the night of nights. No other than a student of the College can appreciate what College Night really means. It is one night in the year when both teachers and students are united as one. when the students show their appreciation of the great things that the faculty members are doing for them by entertaining them in a jolly. Yuletide. Christmas manner. This year College Night occurred on December 17th. and it was a great success. Preceding the big night, judges were picked from the two Freshman Prep classes, who were to award the prize for the winning stunt. When these little judges had been ushered to their front seats, the orchestra started the evening's entertainment with a bang, and we were off for the night. In marched the classes to the tune of their chosen song and out came the vociferous cries of the various class yells. The class of Second B first took the stage. Their number was a scream, and even the most serious-minded were in convulsions of laughter at the numerous articles that were extracted as tonsils from the patient's mouth. The class of Second A put on a song and dance act. which, using the patois of the younger generation. was the honey.” In this number Feed. Scott and Galbraith stood out. Then came the old reliable standby, a scene in a College room, given by the members of Third High. Prominent among the Junior luminaries were Gravelle and L'Abbe, who were the music masters of the College dormitory. Gerald Haughian. Robert Pigott and George Rourke. of the High School Class of '27. then staged The Gray Overcoat in truly professional style. Jerry and Bob showed unusual histrionic ability in the portrayal of their roles and the skit was judged the best by far. The College men. led by “Hash O'Neill and Fd Cummings, concluded the entertainment program with a war scene which was touching and would have been better received by an older audience. When the stage offerings had been completed, sweaters and letters were brought in and Coach Berry took up the happy task of distributing athletic awards. Thunderous applause greeted the names of the heroes who had starred on the gridiron, and proud were the hearts which had won the honor of wearing the Varsity S of the Prep S. H. S. After Coach Berry had concluded the distribution of awards and had extended congratulations to all the players, refreshments were served by the Mothers in the gym. Kobtrl I. Pi foil 69 - Rev. Wm. Roland. S. J.. D. Peabody. R. Heaney. Rev. E. McNamara. S. J. UA ’ V N RECORDING the history of the Aloysian Pilgrimage, we are chronicling one of the biggest achievements ever accomplished by S. C. students. When Fr. McNamara assembled the student body in the auditorium on November 5th. and said that he would like to send two boys from the school to represent Seattle in Rome at the Aloysian festivities, a knowing smile went around, and everyone looked on the suggestion as an impossibility. But our Dean was determined. A contest was started, and in less than a week ' Bud ’ Reaney was able to announce to the other fifty contestants that he had the eight hundred dollars required for the trip. Duane Peabody was not far behind in gathering enough money, and preparations were definitely made for the departure. Signatures of hundreds of Catholic students were secured as pledgers to the Aloysian Plan of Life and were carried to Rome as Seattle’s demonstration of homage to St. Aloysius. On the 8th of December, after farewell parties and ceremonies, the two lucky students left Seattle. They joined the other pilgrims in New York and were given a royal welcome in the metropolis. T hey arrived in Rome on Christmas Eve. and had the thrilling privilege of hearing the feast day Mass in St. Peter's. The following week was a big one for the two boys, as they were bent on seeing everything possible in the Eternal City. On December 51st, they joined the other pilgrims in the Aloysian festivities and begged the blessing of the Angelic Saint on the students of Seattle College. As their leave of absence was brief, they had to hurry back home. On January 20th. the student body assembled in the auditorium to extend a hearty welcome to the two fortunate pilgrims and to hear the interesting story of their Pilgrimage trip. Armistice Day ON THURSDAY morning, November 1 1th, we assembled in the auditorium to celebrate the anniversary of the war s successful close, and to present an appropriate program for Education Week. The orchestra opened up the program with some lively national airs, with the melody of the war song Over There as a musical setting or background. Our Rev. Dean. Fr. McNamara, then fully and lucidly explained the merits of a Catholic education. Representatives from the different classes outdid one another in extolling the merits of education as the foundation for good citizenship. John Young, of the College Freshman class, read an interesting essay on education. John Lyons then ably upheld the honor of Fourth High. Tally Carroll, of Third High, gave an oration on Washington and the Constitution. Philipp Poth gave an extemporaneous and concise expose of a good education, dwelling particularly on the physical aspect. Jack Carey cast words about in a witty manner and drew the plaudits of the multitude. First High A was well represented by Herbert Hemmen and Little Andy won fame for First High B by singing a soprano solo. In keeping with the spirit of Armistice Day our Rev. Dean granted a holiday and the meeting happily adjourned. .[ lie Sodality .Reception HE SENIOR and Junior Sodalities of the Blessed Virgin Mary held their first Solemn Reception of the year at eight o’clock. December 1 1. 1926. The ceremony was held in the domestic chapel of the Faculty Building. Rev. Fr. Boland. S. J.. offered the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the applicants and conducted the reception. He addressed the Sodalists and congratulated them on the great honor bestowed upon them in being received into the Sodality of our Lady. He praised the Sodalists for their sacrifice and generosity in being present on Saturday morning for the reception, and exhorted them to continue to live as loyal sons of Mary. The Sodalists were then presented with certificates by Rev. Fr. Boland. S. J. Among the honored candidates were: F. Arena. F. Ausman. J. Bilsborrow. E. Brandmeier. J. Hamilton. L. Murray. J. Donovan. J. Richards. B. Corrigan. G. Flajole. B. Burke. H. Hemmen. B. Ouellette. G. O’Keefe. L. Eshom. D. Eshom. J. Evoy. S. Hussey. E. O’Callaghan. J. Danz, and T. Sheehan. After the Mass and Communion, breakfast was served by the members of the faculty. Y kV yv V 1 A V isii from .Bishop I su9 3 J ON THE FIFTEENTH of February we were singularly favored by a visit of a native Chinese Jesuit Bishop, who, though pressed for time, condescended to spend a few moments with us. Aside from being pleased on account of his high office in the Church, it was an especial treat to view him in his picturesque Oriental garb. Small of stature and kindly of mien, the Bishop smilingly stepped into our auditorium amidst the cheering of the boys. After a few preliminary remarks by Rev. Fr. Rector, telling us of the Bishop s willingness to speak in French. Spanish or Latin, the Bishop took the floor and told us in the simplest Latin phrases of his difficulties in Missionary work and asked that our prayers be offered for the conversion of China. One particular part of his address which everyone understood was. that we should take the rest of the day ut tempus vacationis. Needless to say. the boys were more than happy that this distinguished guest had paid them a little visit. I lie Lincoln f'Lssay Contest ON FEBRUARY 10th. Fr. McNamara, S. J.. visited tlx class of Fourth High and announced that the Illinois Watch Company, of Springfield. Illinois, had donated a large bronze medal for the best essay written on Abraham Lincoln. The contest was restricted to members of the High School graduating class and conditions were to be arranged by the English teacher of the class. Interest in this new activity was high, and it was not an uncommon sight to see Fourth High students pouring over encyclopedias for data on the life of our martyred President. To stimulate interest, a prize was offered also for the winner of second place, viz., that his essay would be printed in the literary section of the Echo. On March 14th. the date set for the end of the contest, the essays were given in to be judged by several members of the faculty. After careful thought they awarded first place to Jack Meade, whose essay was declared to be excellent. He will receive the Lincoln medal at the Commencement exercises. June 10th. John Lyons won second place and the honor of having his essay appear in these pages. The judges placed the essay of Paul Graf in third place. The Lincoln MrJcl i 4 4 i I lie Oratorical Contest ON MONDAY evening. March 28th. eight of the best speakers of the High School met to compete for the honor of representing the school in the National Oratorical Contest. Members of the faculty were present as judges, and interest was high to see who should uphold the honor of the Blue and White in the City contest. Herbert Hemmen. who had chosen the first place by lot. gave his speech in a masterful style, and made a fine impression as the opening speaker. Felix Arena was next and was a pleasant surprise to those who know that Felix has improved simply because he had the determination and was willing to work and follow instructions. Subsequent contests are proving that Felix was a happy choice as winner. His masterly speech is printed in the Literary Section of this book. Gerald Haughian followed, with a well-prepared oration on Alexander Hamilton and the Constitution. After this speech two cornet solos were played by Kenneth McMullen and were very well received. Following this intermission Julius Bell. Ted Gravell and Ed Brandmeier delivered their speeches and the difficulty of the judges became greater and greater. At this point two well-executed violin solos by Harry Hazel lightened the entertainment and won deserving applause. Following these musical numbers Walter Scott delivered his simple straight-forward speech in a clear, convincing manner. Robert Pigott concluded the program and showed force and earnestness in his delivery. The vote of the judges placed Felix Arena first. Walter Scott second, and Robert Pigott third. 1 hr Shakespearian Coni est HE SHAKESPEARIAN contest was held on Friday. April 1st. to determine who should represent the school in the Annual Contest which is held at the University of Washington. Recollections of a few years ago. when John Spiller carried the school colors to victory at the University, made the students more anxious to have a chance to win these laurels once again. Although the warning given to the classes was brief, a goodly number of boys entered the contest, which was held in the school auditorium, before the student body and the three selected judges. Owing to the large number of entrants, the speakers were not allowed to give their entire selection, judgment being made on a chosen part. l ed Gravell had the honor of being the first speaker. Following him were Tom and John Hoban. Lyons. Lockwood. Schlosser. K. McMullen. Bras. Brandmeier. F. Egan. T. Meade and others. Talent was shown by all and it was only after deliberation and consultation that the judges chose T. Meade to represent the school in the Annual Shakespearian Contest. F. Egan and T. Gravell were awarded second and third places, respectively. un any Rtarsev. Dillon. Hauuhmn. I(h hard ton. Stott. Pigolt Hume. Xleade ! ifj ( • A I T IS WELL known with what diligence the Dutch watch for even the slightest aperture in the dykes lest little by little the walls give way and the entire country become inundated. It is the age-old story of perseverance. In this comparison the Dramatic Club does not play the role of the dyke, but of the continual pounding of the main. Hindered by almost insuperable barriers the Club unceasingly pounded until it broke forth on the night of April 22nd with its three-act production Too Many Smiths.” The success scored on that evening is a grand tribute to the perseverance of the entire cast. Early in the evening the crowd began to gather in the Garfield High School Auditorium. and when the curtain rose the lower floor was nearly filled and much of the reserved section in the balcony was occupied. That night was the valedictory to the College stage of Granville Egan, who has assumed leading roles in all College plays for the last four years. Granville played the lead in 'Loo Many Smiths as Jack Smith. Granville was sure the center of activity, and it did seem as if some of the others in the cast might have declared their identity a little sooner and saved him all the anxiety. Not even his close friend. Dick Desmond—Bud Reaney—would give him any sympathy. Wall Scott played his part so well that he had Granville on the jump continuously. Walt displayed plenty of talent and we hope to see him at the post in the coming years. Archie Richardson created a sensation in the sombre garb of a cleric. His hasty retreat from the hands of Jack Smith discovered a deal of latent track ability and took the house by storm. We would like to have Archie tell us what happened to him as he went off the stage on that run. A high hat. a monocle, a morning suit was all that Jack Dillon needed for a perfect interpretation of the London dandv. The hearty applause that greeted his first appearance testified to his merit, dontcha know.” We cannot mention them all. but from the talent shown, the footlights look bright for the College stage. a’ j i T Alumni r---------- s 'K I X y ft V V R emmiscences of an Ail TU iimmiis “Backward, turn backward. Oh Time, in your flight. Make me a boy again just for tonight. XET US make a little trip: a trip to Alumni-land. a land of Memories. The life of a schoolboy is not all roses, but gazing back through the vista of the years, the bitter is forgotten in the contemplation of the sweet. The erstwhile Freshman recalls with a shudder the day he was laid over the boiler in the low. musty, dirt-floor gym and how for the remainder of the day he rested uneasily in his seat, but the joy of being at last one of the crowd reigns foremost in his mind. The long days of classroom drudgery are forgotten. as with grateful memory we recall the boys of the old class who daily assembled to untie the Gordon Knots of Algebra, or follow Caesar in his campaign against some tribe or other in Gaul. Well do 1 remember how Caesar crossed the river by a ford. That was one of the few occasions when we got a laugh from the study of Caesar. The orchestra had practice daily at 11: 0 and we had our study period at the same time, or more correctly we were supposed to have study period, for no sooner were the dulcet tones of the musicians wafted through the open windows of our room than our orchestra would also tune up. Fat Bartholet. our pianist, would provoke soul-stirring music as he deftly ran his fingers, first through his hair and then over the edge of his desk: Johnny White, first violin ist. used two rulers to advantage: Leon Herkenrath fingered his flute gingerly, and Walt McGuern was an expert on the cornet—all in silence, mind you. All at once Bill Mayer would be carried away by the rendition of our selection and would tap the floor vehemently with his No. 1 l's. Instruments were hastily put away as the attention of Mr. Fabris was directed to this corner of the room, and we spent the rest of the period listening to the musicians upstairs. The old handball courts are no longer at the old place, but how many a pleasant memory they recall, of hard-fought games during the noon hour or after school until 4:30. when the boys were supposed to be off the campus. There stands forth prominently the day when Fr. Garrigan tucked up his cassock for a game. We recall him pausing for “time out when the game became rather warm, in order to give his heart a rest, and we likewise remember how. with sweeping gesture, he would sweep from his rather bald pate the numerous beads of perspiration there gathered.

Reminiscences o:f an Alumnus fContinuedJ At 11:50 the boys were let out for recess, and how they rushed past the kitchen, over the bridge into the Administration Building, where they stormed the Co-op Store for service! Most of the boys sat for dinner in the long room with a stove at one end. which served as dining room: but many a youngster, hastily gulping down a bite, would be off to gain possession of a handball court—preferably the corner one—and proud was the team that could defend itself against all comers for the noon period! About 12:10 the noon league in baseball began. These games were hotly contested, for material and spirit were plentiful. Mike Pecarovich. Frank Cotter. Johnny Logan and Bill Long were some of the captains. Interested spectators would observe the game from along the banks that bordered the first and third base lines. Vance Moriarity used to come through with long hits now and then, while a hit to left field was sure to be gobbled up by Joe Morrison, if it was at all possible to reach it. About 12:30 Mr. Fabris, or Mr. Busch or Mr. Burns—now all ordained— would come from the building and observe the game from a vantage spot on the bank in right field. Brother Kish, having finished dinner, now comes along and stands outside the kitchen door in center field, where he observes the game and banters the passers-by. Recess is drawing to an end and soon a warning bell sounds across the campus. A crowd strolls over from the corner grocery where they have most likely been importuning the Greek proprietor for credit. Joe Morris dashes around a corner with a cap tightly clutched in his hand and after him pants the colossal form of “Fat Bartholct. Immediate and drastic punishment will be inflicted on Joe if caught, but Joe figures the fun is worth it. Babe McAteer. Mike Pecarovich and Frank Lynch are talking with Mr. Burns and on closer approach we find that Mike is using all his masterly eloquence to persuade Mr. Burns to let him off jug. He didn’t succeed. Except for a few stragglers, all the boys are gathered near the handball court. Near them is a figure, rather heavy set. clear of eye. who is respected and loved by every boy-respected because he made the boys toe the mark—loved, because he understood boys and was a true friend to them. There is no virtue called by the name, but if I may be permitted to use the term. Father Francis Burke was loved by the boys because he was “square. A great void came to Seattle College with the removal of Father Burke, and the world lost a great man when Father Burke passed to a better life. It is such a figure that makes Alumni-land a land we delight in visiting. We are better, stronger men because of it.

It is sad to think that this team will never again come together as a powerful fighting unit for the Blue and White, for we may justly call it the best High School combination in years. The pcrsistance. fight and ability shown by its members are qualities that came from loyalty and devotion to the cause of Alma Mater. The team, as a whole, worked together like one well-oiled machine and gave the school sufficient incentive for turning out in large numbers to witness its battles. This sterling cooperation was noticeable in games when defeat seemed inevitable. To our stalwart warriors however, the gridiron not only meant the struggle for victory but also the love of fair play and good sportsmanship: these manly qualities characterized their play during the entire season. The Panthers were defeated early in the season by Issaquah. but when they met Moran School shortly afterwards the result was a hard-fought tie. Then St. Alphonsus' School was decisively trimmed, and after that game the team cut loose and handed our ancient rivals from O'Dea and St. Leo’s a thorough lacing. The season ended with a defeat at the hands of the speedy Bothell eleven. Looking back over the season we can feel justly proud of the wonderful showing made by the Panther High School eleven. The team went into every contest heavily outweighed, but played with the fierceness and spirit that has won it the name of the Panther. In the most important games we came out with the long end of the score. In speaking of the work of the team wc must not forget the man who mapped out all the plays and planned each and every defense—Coach Tom Berry. The school takes this opportunity of thanking Mr. Tom Berry for his untiring and unselfish efforts, which developed for Seattle College High School its great eleven of 1926. % cy 84 Ua UJ kJ K Jot McCullough—Guard Joe’s fighting and gameness inspired confidence in his teammates and he proved to be an excellent choice for captain. Although handicapped by lack of weight, he was in every play, giving the best he had for his school. Bob Pigott—Fullback Bob was the best line-crasher of the season. He had weight, speed and aggressiveness and hit the line for long, consistent gains. He was the star of the St. Leo’s game. Joe Richards—Halfback Joe was a heady back who used his interference to perfection. His off-tackle runs always gained yardage, while his tackling was one of the team’s best bets on the defense. Carl Zapp—End Zapp played his first year of football and hence lacked experience, but his persistence won him a place on the team. No opponent will get around his end next year. 'T'W- '' 8 5 Frank McLELLAN—Quarterback “Bubs' ” signal-calling combined with his choice of play, easily distinguished him as a coming quarterback. His judgment of opposing formations was faultless and the spirit he infused into the team was a big factor in its success. George Rourke—Center Rourke's headiness and fight were evident in every game. His encouragement was an inspiration to fellow players. George Bahl—End George proved himself a flash at end and few plays ever skirted around him. His body hurdling was a treat for the spectators, and his constant display of fight pulled many a game out of the fire. Ken McMullen—Tackle Football runs in the McMullen family. and Ken has his share of it. He was perhaps the coolest player on the squad and when the play went his way the backfield never had to look for holes. WA LTER SCOTT-—Fullback Walt showed great speed in his line-plunging. even though this was his first year of football. Some future Seattle College eleven will be built around this promising young player. X % n % % X % % X k I f t i I k 1 t - htt % K X X X y % Xz. Ed English—Fullback Ed would have been a real star had he turned out consistently all season. His work at fullback, both on the offense and on the defense were of the highest calibre. Doug Redburn—Guard Redburn was an all-around linesman of high merit. “Fight” was his motto and he always lived up to it. J ACK EDGERTON—Half back Jack started the season in great shape and was fast proving himself to be the speediest back on the eleven, when he broke his ankle. Though he was out for the remainder of the season, his fine work in the first games will always be remembered. Tom Meade- Center We may feel justly proud at having “Tubby” in our midst: he was easily the best high school center in the city. His accurate passing bordered on the uncanny. Ed Olnoy—Tackle Olncy had the weight to make a good tackle and he won the confidence of his fellow teammates by making grand use of it. He was there, smearing and driving on every play. '■ c 1 I i T X Phillip Poth—Guard Poih always followed instructions, and though he suffered many hard knocks due to inexperience, they were never hard enough to keep him down. He will be there to bolster up the line next year. Andy Duet—Tackle Trenchy showed that he knew the game by continually getting the jump on his opponents. He kept his head up and sized the plays up so well that he knew almost exactly what was coming next. Jof in Engl isi i—Half buck Johnny was full of fight from the minute the whistle blew until the game was over. He had a style all His own. and his end runs were always good for considerable yardage. Frank Egan—Tackle Egan’s weight proved a bulwark on the line. Many planned gains were stopped by him. and his red head was always a sign of danger to the opposition. JACK MHADE—Quarterback Jack showed the uninitiated how this position really should be played. He was there, using his head on every play, and many of our victories were due to his brilliant work. 88 K % A � 5wr;5W5irw ;(; the ECHO ■4KOi VSi X William Anderson—Tackle Andy played his first season of football this year, but his ability to follow the ball, combined with his fighting spirit made him a mainstay of the line. CH L'CK MCMULLEN—Guard Chuck s work, both on offensive and on defensive, was excellent. It was a joy to witness his cleverness in running interference. Felix Arena—Hnd In Felix the High School had an exceedingly fast and scrappy end. His strong defensive work and deadly tackling made him a linesman to be feared and avoided. J E R R V 11A UGH IA N—Half back Jerry was a fast and an extremely shifty open-field runner and performed well on the passing end of the aerial attack. His work on the defense was superb, due to the carefulness with which he watched the opposing backfield. X X X k X l‘A u rs X X X y n X X Tike G ames CJ Vy The Issaquah Waterloo: rHE PANTHERS were really lucky to be able to come home with only a H to 0 score chalked up against them in this tilt. This was the initial game of the season, and the team was far from its mid-season driving power. The backs were standing straight up when they hit the line and as for opening up holes, the line simply wasn't there at all. The Moran Fray The eleven next journeyed to Rolling Bay and fought the Moran team to a scoreless tie. Our men had the ball on Moran's three and four-yard line several times but lacked the punch to put it across. The Panthers worked well, however, and showed clearly that they had come out of their earlier slump and were on the way to becoming a well-oiled machine. The St. Alphonsus Massacre The following week saw the eleven working together as one man. the result being a victory of 1 2 to 0. St. Alphonsus could not withstand the Panther offense, while on the defense the team could well be called a stone wall. Johnny English. Joe McCullough and Chuck McMullen were the luminaries of this contest. The former, by his fine work in running the ends and the latter two by their flawless defensive work and fearless tackling, stood out as real grid stars. The O’Dea Slaughter: In perhaps the biggest game of the season the Panthers decisively trimmed O’Dea High School. 13 to 0. The two teams, deadly rivals for many seasons in all branches of sport, went at each other in a truly gladiatorial style. After the smoke of battle had lifted, it was discovered that our eleven had scored twice and kicked goal once. Tubby Meade. Panther center, was the bright light of the fracas. The St. Leo’s Festival The Panthers ran up another victory when they forced the St. Leo's aggregation to go down to defeat before their splendid fighting ability and great aerial attack. Bob Pigott. our big fullback, came to life in this game and was irresistible. His plunges at the center of the line will give College students a subject for animated conversation for seasons to come. In every respect this game was the season's climax. The Bothell Defeat: In the final encounter of the season, the High School eleven met defeat but went down fighting. Bothell High, the Valley champions, proved to be too much for our grid warriors. Joe Richards, by his vicious tackling and Ken McMullen, with his heady offensive and defensive game, showed themselves to be our stars in that gamy.

Coach •Manager Antler ton VJ Tie S pas on y £ «C (OHORTLY after the moleskins were packed away in moth balls, a call for . j) basketball aspirants was issued by Coach Berry. The outlook was any-K J thing but bright. Lack of material in the College department brought the High School quintet to the fore and to it were pinned the hopes of the student body. A large turnout greeted the coach, but it was quite apparent that our squad was longer on quantity than quality. Alex Cain and Jerry Evoy, two sharpshooters of last year's team, were greatly missed as were Denny McLaughlin and Harrington. To compensate for the loss of these four players of recognized worth, but two lettermen were forthcoming. Ed Griffin and ’‘Tubby Meade, both of whom held forth at guard. After Christmas vacations, practice was resumed under the direction of Mr. Logan. S. J.. and the process of weeding out began. The guard positions were quite capably taken care of by Griffin. Meade. Olney and Haughian. Haughian plays an aggressive game, is a good team man and. as he had a steadying influence on the rest of the team, he made an ideal captain. It was the forward line positions that caused most concern. Shcchy. who came up from the Midgets, was an accurate shot, a hard fighter, but handicapped by his size. Hoban was also a nice shot and a clever floor man. but both Sheehy and Hoban were unusually susceptible to “bad days. Until A1 Hurley recovered from an infected hand there was not a sub for either of these forwards. Hamilton could drop the ball through the hoop with the best of the team but this was Ham's first year out and he lacked experience. Next year he should be a valuable man. At center. Anderson was a pleasant surprise. He generally obtained the tip-off. was very good on jump shots and a glutton for work. Arena, who finishes this year, rounds out the squad. Arena, as Hamilton, was new to the game and. because of lack of experience, broke into the lineup but seldom. However, despite this fact, he showed a wonderful spirit in turning out regularly for practice. In viewing the results of the following games it is well to remember that the squad played all of their games on strange floors, and that the change from the small College gym to more spacious floors, was a considerable handicap. s7r 91 THE ECHO Kj: i_A Ed Griffin, a guard, who made life miserable for opposing forwards.

Sheehy scored consistently for the College and all the boys were given an opportunity to demonstrate their ability. Garfield 32—Panthers 22 Yes. the Panthers were vanquished, but it took the city champs to do it! In the light of the fact that the Garfield Bulldogs went through a season of twelve games without a reverse, our defeat may easily be understood. Don Quixote fighting windmills had nothing on the Panthers when they found themselves face to face with the famous five-man. arm-waving defense of the Bulldogs. One of the high lights of the contest was presented by Jim Sheehy. the diminutive S. C. forward, trying to get away from Swanson, the 6 ft. 4 in. guard. It was another case of Jack and the beanstalk. After gaining a comfortable lead in the first half, the Bulldog second team took up the argument with the Panthers in the second half and the Panthers cut down the lead to a respectable score by the end of the game. Panthers Defeat University Panthers A series of three practice games was played with the University Panthers and in each case the College boys vanquished their rivals. 38-16. 37-16. 35-13. Broadway 16—Panthers 10 The game was played at the Casey gvm and from the first it was evident that it would be a close one. It also became quite evident in the early stages of the game that the Panthers were a long way off form in their shooting. Easy shots were missed and the element of hard luck also entered in when good shots would roll around and out of the hoop. The score at half was Broadway 10— S. C. 0. I'om Hoban started the second half with a field goal, and then converted four free throws. Despite the fact that Broadway added a few more points, our players were within hailing distance of their foes, and the Panthers sensed a victory as Pom Meade dropped a long one from the center. But the lead gained in the first half was too great to overcome. Weak shooting spelled defeat for the College, as neither Sheehy nor Anderson broke into the score column. K. of C. Juniors 25—Panthers 22 A few days after the Broadway contest the Panthers met the Casey Juniors at the Casey Gym. The College boys, having a seeming repugnance to be leading at half time, were at the short end of a 1 5 to 10 score as the whistle sounded for the final half. As was the case in the Broadway game, the Panthers out-scored their opponents in the second half: in fact, were leading until the last few minutes of play, when Gorman broke away for the baskets that gave the Knights the game. Sheehy led the Panthers with 6 points. Gorman with 10 and Guth with 8 were high men for the Caseys. 94 .1 lie Games [Continued] Panthers 23—O'Dea High 18 The first few minutes of this game witnessed some nice passing by the O'Dea boys which finally resulted in King, of O'Dea. breaking away for a basket. The score was soon knotted by two successful free throws. Here, little Jim Sheehy and a little pep were injected into the Panther lineup and Jim warmed up by throwing a basket and two free throws. A1 Hurley, lost to the team in former games because of an infected finger, dropped a pretty long shot and the guards held down the O'Dea score to 6 points—and the half ended with the Panthers having just twice as many. O'Dea began the second half with a determined effort to catch up with the Panthers. Anderson, however, took some starch out of the O'Dea lads In-recovering two balls from the back board for as many baskets. Ackerman and King counted for O'Dea. Loss of Anderson and Hurley via the foul route and a last effort by O'Dea almost turned the tide of battle in the last quarter, but the rally fell short by five points. Panthers 2}—St. Leo's 26 Fresh from their victories over O'Dea and Renton, the Panthers entered this game with confidence. The game started out auspiciously for the Panthers, when Jerry Haughian dribbled down the floor and caged the ball with a pretty shot. Anderson followed with a nice jump shot and it looked like curtains for the Lions. Brady. Lion forward, caused much concern to the Panther guards, as did his Hibernian partner. Flynn. The Panther attack proved but a flash in the pan. and Lions and Panthers were fighting nip and tuck when half-time found the S. C. boys leading. 12-10. The third period began by the Panthers increasing their lead by another basket. The game was anything but gentle. The final quarter began with the College leading. 21-17. The Lions spurted, and good work by Flynn and Brady brought the score to 21-20. The Panthers became rattled and resorted to individual playing. Brady gave St. Leo's a 22-21 lead by dribbling through the S .C. defense to cage the ball, but Anderson regained the lead a minute later by a short under-the-basket shot. The game was very fast and intensely interesting. A great shout went up from the few Taconians when Flynn caged the ball, giving the Lions a 24-23 lead. Anderson failed to make a free throw. Haughian dashed through the Tacoma defense and was fouled while shooting, but he missed both throws at the basket. As the Panthers refused to score the Lions decided to have a bit of fun and caged the ball just as the game ended. Anderson led the College with 9 pointers, while Flynn with 8. and Brady with 9. were high for Tacoma. Hoban and Sheehy again had an off night. The Panthers made but 2 points in the last 10 minutes. Of this game the Lion publication had the following to say: This was the hardest contest experienced by the Monarchs this season, barring none. The Seattle aggregation used an individual defense that the Lions found exceedingly difficult to penetrate.” Panthers 26—Foster 18 Foster High was host to the Panthers one wintry evening, and the Panthers were just a bit too strong for the country boys. Anderson and Haughian were high men for the College, with six counters each. © 95 'HE ECHO I .( ]}p Cjames {Continued} Panthers ! 1—O’Dea 22 The victory of the Panthers in their first engagement is explained by one preposition current in basketball parlance. They were on.” Their defeat is as easily accounted for. They were off.” Fortunately ye scribe journeyed to the fray minus his note book, so but the high spots of the contest remain in his memory. O’Dea led from the first and rolled up a commanding lead before the Panthers got started. Panthers 24—St. Leo’s 21 The odds were against the Panthers in this game. O’Dea won handily from the Lions on the O’Dea floor, but the Lions turned the tables in their small gym and. no doubt, anticipated a victory over the Panthers. Well, they didn’t do it. no sir! not by a long shot (and a short one too), for the score at the end of the roughest game since football season, was 24-21. favoring the Panthers. An incompetent referee was the match that started the fireworks— and five young Lions and five young Panthers confined in a small gym did the rest. Tubby Meade, center of the football team, who holds forth at a guard position on the quintet, was in his element, and Tubby’s dashes down the floor on his famous dribbles were victorious events, with many a Tacoma lad paying unwilling homage from a sitting posture. Haughian. Tubby’s partner, and a halfback on the gridiron, hit the Tacoma defense for gains time and time again, while the Tacoma lads tackled nobly. Anderson, a tackle, found the rough going greatly to his liking, and Sheehy. like any good Irishman, enjoyed the fracas. The Lions led at the half by a 1 0-7 score. During the half the Panthers waxed reminiscent, and remembering that they had already defeated the Lions in football that season, felt themselves to have the advantage: and thus encouraged. entered anew the battle. In the third quarter the Lions widened the gap to such an extent that their supporters were looking at the world through rose-colored glasses. However. Harrison, pivot man for the Lions, who entered the contest wearing goggles protected by a screen, had emerged from a mix-up with his horn-rimmed spectacles divided in three parts, with the result that he was looking at the world through no glasses at all. It was at about the beginning of the final quarter that the Panthers gave a wonderful exhibition of fight and basket shooting. With the Lions apparently well on the way to victory. Hurley shot a double foul and Sheehy sunk a long shot. Haughian was held while shooting and he likewise converted both shots into counters. Meade gave the Seattle contingent something to cheer about by dropping in his customary long shot. Anderson parted the twine for a beauty and Sheehy broke the Lion’s heart by a successful long effort. Flynn and Sheehy led the scorers with ten points each. rh Dt Donato, h'lajole. Engltih. Haiti.

Out of a series of three games with the O'Dea Juniors, the S. C. boys won but one-—that by a comfortable margin. Of the other two contests, one was an overtime affair which the O'Dea hoys copped by a 11-9 score, and the other was a 21-17 victory for the Cathedral lads. I he Juniors engaged a much larger team from Lakeside School in two games, winning the first with ease. 58-10. and the latter game also went to the Juniors by the more respectable score of 28-10. In a game featured by close guarding on both sides, the Juniors defeated the Temple dc Hirsch quintet. I 1 -9. I he Juniors journeyed to Foster to engage the Foster seconds in a game preliminary to the High School-Panther conflict. The game was close from the very beginning, but the strange floor and consistent playing of the country lads prevailed, and the Juniors succumbed to a 21-15 defeat. In the first quarter of the St. Leo game the Juniors failed to tally, but knotted the count before the first half was ended, largely through the excellent shooting of Flajole. who caged nine points in the contest. In the second half the S. C. boys were not to be denied, and entered the last quarter with a meager lead. Corrigan, the spark plug of the Junior outfit, then conceived the idea that the Juniors should perfect their passing and they did so. much to the discomfiture of the St. Leo boys, who were not able to score while the S. C. boys had the ball. I he game ended. S. C. 1 7—St. Leo's 1 5. The guarding of Johnny English and Dc Donato was of high order. Watch these lads next year! 97 I lie JMLidgets Sheehan, tteek.

C. game at the Casey gym. the Midgets tangled with the Temple de Hirsch quintet and emerged victorious over the sons of Abraham. 23-20. Thus ended the season. Next year new faces will be seen in the Midget ranks and the Midgets will try to qualify as Juniors. Carl Scarp, running guard, was the backbone of the team. Playing for the First A quintet in the inter-class league. Carl's work attracted the attention of the Midget scout, who soon had his name affixed to a contract. Bernie Keenan. Scarp’s running mate at guard, is also a classy performer on the floor. Like his partner, he is rugged, and the harder the going is the better Bernie likes it. Frank Carroll, a husky lad who is at home in all sports, was sub guard. He will be an effective guard when basketball comes around once again. I om Sheehan, the center, first attracted attention by his play during the inter-class league. In shooting he has a little twist all his own which he uses to good effect.

The first game, played on the home floor, found the Bantams on the long end of a 15-1 score. Jack Evoy rolling up 1 1 of the points. The second game was played in the City of Destiny. where the Seattle boys nosed out their rivals by a 6-5 score: a basket by Jack Evoy in the latter stages of the contest spoiling the afternoon for the Tacoma lads. The Bantams engaged in a two game series with the Greenwood Juniors—a much larger team—the Bantams winning the first encounter 8-7. and losing the second. 14-15. A decisive victory was scored over the St. Joseph quintet. Thus the Bantams finished the season with a very successful record. A word of appreciation must be here given Jimmy Logan who. in a series of practices before school hours, put the Bantams wise to some of the fine points of the game. The Bantam forward line was well taken care of by Liny Cameron. Jack and Matty Evoy. All three were very good shots. Matty being especially proficient on distance shots. “Bud Haus and Ernie Stuckey made life miserable for the opposing forwards, and the total of six points garnered by St. Leo's in two games speaks well for their ability. Bud. being faster than Ernie, was running guard, and his dribbles down the floor were a feature of the Bantam attack. Ernie was nothing if not steady, and refused to be rattled, often taking the ball away from two opponents when he alone was between them and the basket. Jack Noll was substitute. Lacking experience, he was not able to break into the game, but the points and experience picked up in this year's campaign will stand him in good stead next season. 99 (tJ The Extremists ' Caught au F Number zo's Know Them P ■ Chums? Asyou likeii 100 1 w I I 4 - f I Captain Bah! Mr. f . l.ogan. S. J., Coa h Manager Craf Pros pods N EARLY MARCH, a squad of about 35 hopefuls turned out for the High School baseball team. Among this number were but two lettermen. Raab. the elongated twirler. and 'Lorn Meade, third sacker. Most of the other promising players were members of the classy Junior outfit of last season. Of these. Neil Murray and Bill Lockwood were maskmen: Johns, hurler: Jim Sheehy. second: O'Keefe, shortstop: Hessian. Johnny English and Ramey, gardners. Other prospects, neither lettermen norex-Juniors. were: Bahl. pitcher, who kept out of the game for a couple of seasons with a bad wrist: Pigott and Rourke. first sackers: Olney. fielder: Mitchell, utility. With the approach of the practice games scheduled with local high schools, the first team was definitely appointed. By his clever catching and intelligent handling of pitchers. Neil Murray earned the position of first string catcher, while Bill Lockwood was retained as sub receiver. The pitching staff boasted three right-handers: Raab. who was counted upon for some good work: Bahl. an unknown quantity: and Johns, who had yet to show what he could do in high school competition. All were right-handers. At first base Bob Pigott got the call over George Rourke. Bob being the better hitter. At second base Jim Sheehy earned a position for himself by his neat fielding and perpetual pep and chatter. There was no competition for O'Keefe at short or for Meade at third. As outfielders. Hessian. Ramey. J. English. Trippy and Olney were kept. Before perusing the accounts of the games played with local high schools, it might be well to remember that this team is built around a nucleus of two letter men. Regardless of what defeats this year has already brought and may yet bring, every game means so much more experience to players who have yet two more years before their high school course is finished, and when baseball season is ushered in once again Murray.

Joe Raab started off on the hill for the Panthers, but a sore shoulder that brought about loss of control got Joe into hot water in the third inning and George Bahl. an unknown quantity, was called upon to do the rescue act. The bases were full and no one out. George took up the pitching burden quietly and got out of the hole with but one run charged against him. His pitching throughout the rest of the contest brought joy to the hearts of College supporters, for they were now assured of two first-class twirlers. A total of four blows was gathered off Raab and Bahl. Temporary loss of control, along with a couple of hump backed liners in the last inning, gave the Bulldogs three more runs, bringing their total to five. Sims and Schaab twirled for the Bulldogs and were mighty stingy with their hits, the College boys getting but a brace of singles. Johnny English, the diminutive center fielder of the Panthers roamed the pastures prettily and took all in sight. Franklin 1 3—Panthers 9 We are opposed to alibis on principle, but nothing but a set of unfortunate circumstances prevented Franklin from taking a licking in their first game of the 1 he Games £Continued] season. In the first place. Joe Raab had a bad shoulder and couldn't work, while Bahl was not yet rested from the Garfield game. That left Johns, who was a gamble. Artie lasted but two innings. The Franklin sluggers taking kindly to his offerings. Mitchell took over the hurling duties and did little better. In the third place, the Franklin ball field is a miniature of the Sahara Desert, and the Panther infield and outfield could not navigate the sand dunes with any success, booting the ball up one sand dune and down another. Snow shoes would perhaps have been better than spikes. Next time we will bring a supply of Camels. Garfield 2—Panthers 0 With the none too pleasant circumstance of having but one twirler available for duty, the Panthers went to Walla Walla field to meet Garfield in a return game. The game was featured by the excellent twirling of Sims and Schaab for Garfield, and of George Bahl for the Panthers. George has anything but a husky build, and his fast ball does not blind the batter, but he does possess a cool head, good control and a curve ball that had the Garfield sluggers breaking their backs. Not a single earned run was scored off Bahl. Ramey fumbled a ball in left field long enough for a man to score from second, and Olney allowed Moore's smash to get by him. and Rocky completed the circuit. However. the College boys were lamentably weak with the willow and were unable to get more than two or three blows, and so suffered their second shutout at the hands of Sims-Schaab and Company. Ballard 3—Panthers 1 The day of the game was more suitable for football than for the national pastime, and Joe Raab—yet troubled with his arm—was forced to take up the duty of taming the Ballard sluggers. And. despite his handicap. Joe did fairly well, whiffing the first three men to face him. Meade, the first man at bat for the Panthers in the second inning, hit the ball half way to Woodland Park and pulled up panting at the third station. The hopes that rose were dashed to the ground as quickly, for Tubby was called out for failing to touch second base. Ballard fielded well behind their twirler and the Panthers threatened but once. Raab was relieved by Bahl in the fifth, and one run was scored off the delivery of George in the two innings he worked. Kirkland High 5—Panthers 3 After the Faster vacations the infield was given a considerable shake up in the hope of instilling a little more pep and speed into the inner works. Meade was changed from third to first. As a third sacker Meade was too slow on the hoof and on the pegs, so Dick Hessian was moved in from the pastures to care for the hot corner. The revamped infield is composed of Hessian, fast on his feet and possessing an excellent arm. O'Keefe at short. Sheehy at second, and Meade at the initial sack. With this lineup the Panthers journeyed to Kirkland and met the Kirkland High team. Six hits in the second frame gave the Panthers four runs and a three-run lead, to which they added one in the next inning, the score being 5-1 when the fifth inning rolled around. Kirkland brought the score to the count of 5-2. and in the sixth inning knotted the count when Raab lost control and was found for a couple of solid smacks with men on the bases. Bahl went into the box and quelled the Kirkland uprising. Johnny English cracked out a homer for the Panthers. The game was called at the end of the seventh inning by agreement. flkc IVIidgef T earn K V y (i Hack: Ilrmmrn. SI. fii'oy. Cormodu. O'Donnell. WaUh. C.laudon. Ikirke. Green.

About thirty boys responded to the call of Mr. J. O’Neill, S. r r J.. and a few workouts were had. Then came the great difficulty of cutting down this group to team proportion, and since so many appeared good enough to make the team, the pruning efforts stopped with twenty-one still on the squad. So the Midget aggregation-—it can hardly be called a team since it really comprises two teams—numbers twenty-one members, about equally divided among the two First Highs. The catching is handled well by McClain and Burke, both of whom are hard workers and whose throws to the bases are daily-improving in accuracy and speed. They have as an understudy, to be called on in need. Carl Scarp. Among the pitchers, comprising Sexton. McGrath. Martin. Potts and Green. Sexton and McGrath seem to have the edge at present, especially for control and for making the opposing batters hit where the team can handle the ball. At first base, both M. Evoy and Walsh are consistently playing well. Second base is taken care of by Foley and O'Donnell. Scarp and Parks are doing the Alfonse and Gaston act at shortstop. Both hit and field in good style. Claudon and Haus take turns knocking down the hot ones at third. The remote confines of the diamond are ably patrolled by Carmody. Car-roll. J. Evoy. O'Keefe. Bammert and Hemmen. together with the previously-named pitchers, who now and then like to function as far from the plate as possible. __ ___ L 1 li e IVliclg et T r a m [ Continued] Midgets Defeat St. Joseph’s The first practice encounter took place at the College against St. Joseph's. All had a chance to enter the game. Green and Sexton working in the box and ably aided by the team, held the St. Joseph's hitters enough in check to come out on the long end of the score. 1926 Midgets 10—Midgets 3 The next game was a bit of a different tale. Last year's Midgets, all of whom, with the exception of Red Jones, are now members of the first or second teams of the High School, undertook to teach their successors how the national game should be played. Martin, who started for this year's Midgets, hampered by a sore arm. exhibited the characteristic wildness of southpaws and by a mixture of bases on balls and hits, allowed the erstwhile Midgets three runs in the first inning. Undaunted by this, the first two men up for the newly organized Midgets. O'Keefe and Haus. singled, but that ended the threat of the first inning. In the next inning McGrath, who succeeded Martin on the mound, held the veterans runless, while in the last half of the same inning Sexton's single ultimately furnished a run for the youngsters. When Arty Johns momentarily wavered in the fifth frame, the Tyro Midgets gained two more counters and things looked promising for them: but the vets replied with two runs in the sixth and five in the seventh, that gave the final count of 10 to 3 in favor of the Midgets of yesteryear. Midgets 4—Immaculate Conception 3 A few days later, the Immaculate Conception School team invaded our diamond and threw a mighty scare into the Midgets, the final count being 4 to 3. in our favor. Both teams presented good fielding, but the first few innings were marked by lost chances for the Midgets, due to poor base-running and poor head-work. In the fourth inning the Midgets gained one run. but in the sixth the Immaculates retaliated with three. However, sensing the danger of defeat, the Midgets secured one in the last of the sixth and two in the seventh that made the game sure. Sexton, who exhibited seven innings of good pitching won his own game with a timely hit. Pctchel did the heaviest stick work for the losers, getting two hits to his credit. Lincoln Frosh 3—Midgets 2 The encounter that was the first real test for the Midgets took place at Lower Woodland Park against the Lincoln High Frosh-Soph aggregation. When it came time to start the game, no Midget second baseman was on hand, so Scarp took that position and owing to McGrath’s non-appearance, due to sickness. Sexton was again called on to pitch. Be it said to Sexton's honor that he turned in another seven innings of fine pitching. The team played good ball, the palm for nicely handling the most fielding chances going to Haus and M. Evoy. Scarp's two-bagger and Martin’s double and single were the only hits for the Midgets, but both doubles resulted in runs, one in the fourth and one in the fifth. Lincoln marked up a run in the third and another in the sixth. About this time Cole, of Lincoln, was replaced by a speedy left-hander. Johnson, who was able to hold the Midgets runless for the rest of the game. The last of the seventh started with a score of 2 to 2. but the first man up drew a lucky hit. due to a Midget fielder being out of position. The next man also followed with a hit and then Berry, who had entered the game as a catcher for tlie Lincoln Frosh. cracked a hot one over second base and the game was over, with the Midgets on the short end of a three to two score.

[al'vcs °f the various classes made it evident that the boys were very anxious that swimming be made one of the official school sports. Their argument that bathing was the most popular athletic summer diversion among Seattleites, seemed logical to the Student Council, and a committee was appointed to take care of this new sport. This committee decided that each class pick a representative to organize a team for a swimming meet to be held on Fr. Rector's Day. the fourth of May. Alvin Hurley of Fourth High. Harry Hazel of Third. J. English of Second “B. Joe Richards of Second A. J. Veak of First B. and Carl Scarp of First “A were chosen as class representatives. All these men have organized their class swimmers and are practicing at Luna Park and Crystal Pool for the various aquatic events. The school team will be picked from among the luminaries of the inter-class meet. Besides the class representatives. E. Olney. W. Anderson. D. Peabody, and J. Meade bid fair to win a place on the team. However, as this is a new sport in the school and we have not had an opportunity to size up our natatorial stars, we shall not be surprised if some of our stellar water performers have not been mentioned. We are anxious to see them perform, and we promise them a worthy write-up in our next Annual. A t t A j r eimis ITH the introduction of other minor sports came the revival of Tennis as a letter sport in Seattle College High School. Memory of the days when the College had a representative tennis team, under Mr. W. Dunne. S. J.. encouraged racquet enthusiasts to clamor for another tennis team. hr. McNamara. S. J.. after consulting with the officers of the Lettermen's Club, decided that this popular sport should be revived. At the present date the tennis team has not been definitely picked, but Manager Joe Richards promises that an abundance of material is on hand to insure a winning team, f rom the numerous entries listed in the Tennis Tournament. it appears that competition for a place on the team will be keen. Each class is strongly represented in the Tournament. Among the more formidable racquet wielders the following are rated high: John Lyons. K. Sifferman. A. Hurley. W. Anderson and G. Bahl from Fourth High: V. MacAdam. E. Olney. J. Hamilton, C. Zapp. T. Meade. J. Raab. F:. Egan and G. Rourke from Third High; J. Richards. D. Beck. E. Byrne. W. Scott. J. Holcomb. D. Pierce. F. McLellan and J. Galbraith from Second High: M. Dunn. J. Danz. T. Sheehan and E. Green from First High. Owing to the prolonged rainy season this year, the team will get a late start, but several matches with outsiders have been arranged, and it looks as though the season will be intensive if not extensive. The Echo wishes the Tennis Team a season of success. MONG the minor sports recently introduced by the Letter Club, boxing and wrestling are probably the most popular from the standpoint of large turnouts. When the Rev. Dean announced that he had secured the services of Dr. Montgomery of Loyola College, as boxing tutor, fistic promoters grew enthused and the pugilistic contagion began to spread. Coach Montgomery was called to our city from Loyola just when his boxing team was winning its way to recognition throughout California. Victories over Stanford and other large schools sounded pretty good, and gave promise of big things in Seattle. Mr. J. O’Neill. S. J.. Faculty Moderator of Boxing, announced that the first turnout would take place on Feb. 25th. and the gymnasium was overcrowded when Dr. Montgomery arrived to put the boys through their paces. For a couple of weeks practice was held in the school gym. but owing to inadequate facilities, the Coach secured the K. C. gym. At present, through the kindness of Mr. Prickctt and the Knights, turnouts in boxing and in wrestling are held there. Ralph Claudon was appointed Boxing Manager by the Student Council, and he is ably assisted by William Milnor of the College Department, who attends particularly to the newspaper side of the game. Practice bouts between Claudon and Scott. Hazel and Martin. Arena and Weigel. N. Murray and Leon-etti have helped the Coach to put his eye on the best boxing talent. This year’s turnout may not result in many victories against outside contenders. but it will pave the way toward a representative boxing team in the near future. Coach Montgomery's success in Los Angeles is a guarantee of success here in Seattle. Inter-Class Aerial rHE INTER-CLASS Touch Football Contest was a thriller from start to finish. From the very first game when the Seniors engaged with the fighting Juniors until the last game when Second A defeated Third High, the noon hours were filled with noise and excitement. Though Fourth High walked away with the honors, and enjoyed a feed at Coach Berry’s cafe, still they were willing to concede that Second A had given them a run for their money. Their advice to posterity is. look out for that Redhead-Murray-English combination. Andy Anderson deserves the most credit for the Senior victory since it was he who infused the needed pep into his classmates. Inter-C I ass .BaslsetLaJ J 7TJ ROM the very beginning of hostilities three teams loomed forth as pos-ji sible victors. Third High. Fourth High and Second B. After trailing Fourth High. 10-0, the Third High quintet came back in the latter part of the game and trounced their opponents in the first game between these traditional rivals. From that time forth Third High showed a pair of clean heels to every team except 2A. whom it defeated in the final game of the first round. By virtue of seven straight wins, the Third High combination finished in first place. The winning team was composed of Hamilton. Carmody. T. Hoban. T. Meade and De Donato. Other players who showed up well for their teams were: J. Sheehy and A1 Hurley for Fourth High: Corrigan and Griffin for Second B: Richards and English for Second A: Scarp and Carroll for 1A: and the Evoys and R. Sheehan for 1 B. Inter-Class I ml OOP AIS THE basketball season waned, that sport be-AS gan to lose its favor among the sport enthusiasts and indoor baseball soon took its place. Fourth High downed Third High in its first contest by a score of 8 to 0. Next. Second High A” trounced Second High B to the tune of 1 4 to 1. In the next contest Second High A lost a thriller to Fourth High by a score of 5 to 4. And so the contest went on. while the teams fought for places as it came near the end. Fourth High repeated its performance, and went through the league with four wins and no losses, thus capturing first place for themselves. Second High “A” won three but lost one tilt to Fourth High, and had to be content with second place. First High “A” showed its strength by ending up in third place, with two wins and two losses to its credit. sw: - iot •3 5 4 QUEEUy 109 £3€ji THE I r A Token � f Appreciation Benefactors of Seattle College: T.
