The members this year were LeRoy Knott, Robert Lee, Campbell Boxer, Robert Tobin, Raymond Basel, Joseph J. Miller, Robert Hutchins, Joseph and Neil Brislawn, Donald Denning, Robert O’Gorman, and Robert Deschamps. Selections of old and new popular songs were sung by the Club on Family Night, College Nite, and at many of the assemblies. The singing on all occasions delighted the listeners, who often showed their appreciation by prolonged applause. ❖ ❖ Dramatics THE Dramatic Club of Seattle College High School, which won the acclaim of many admirers, has enjoyed a very successful season. The first offering came in late October in the form of Family Night,” a traditional evening set aside to establish a more friendly feeling between the parents, school, and faculty. A well balanced program composed of numbers by the Glee Club, a skit, recitations, music and a most impressive slide lecture found favor with a well filled house. Departing a bit from the regular form of College Nite,” the combined forces of the Glee and Dramatic Clubs presented Wah-Wah,” a college medley and musical melange honoring the High School football squads. The spirit of vivacity and originality qualified it as a rollicking achievement. The great success of the year for the Dramatic Club came in the latter part of January when they presented that famous mystery play of George M. Cohan, Seven Keys to Baldpate.” It truly will be remembered as a great play put on by a well chosen cast. The Dramatic Club wishes to take this opportunity to thank the following for their untiring efforts in our behalf: Mr. Howard Le Clair, Mr. Henry Ivers, and Mr. Alvin Hurley. We are also grateful to our moderators, Mr. Dussault, S.J., and Mr. Carmody, S.J. Page 17

The €CHO Sodality of the Blessed Virgin Mary IN Seattle College High School, as in all Jesuit institutions of learning, the Sodality of the Blessed Virgin holds a place of paramount importance among student organizations. The main aim of the Sodality is to foster holiness of life in its members through filial devotion to our Blessed Mother and to carry on the great work of Catholic Action in its manifold phases. This year's program of activity, under the direction of Rev. J. E. MofTatt, S.J., included a series of illustrated lectures on the lives of various Saints given in the Catho- lic High Schools and many of the Grade Schools of the city; a most successful ’'Bundle Drive” for the poor at Christmas; the daily distribution of Catholic literature by the Sodalists; frequent literary contributions to the Diocesan paper, and the donation of P Catholic books to the Public Library. A new impetus was given to Sodality endeavors by a visit of Father Daniel Lord, S.J., for whose meeting our Sodalists acted as hosts, and following which the Seattle Sodality Union was formed with our Sodality as the center. As a part of our contribution to the activities of the Sodality Union, we initiated an interesting New Year Resolution” Contest, and directed a very successful Catholic Press Month drive for the Northwest Progress. This year also saw the first Annual Apologetic Oratorical Contest fostered by our Sodality in which speakers from eleven schools representing Seattle, Tacoma, Yakima and Moxee took part. A unique distinction is ours this year in having received personal messages from the President and Mrs. Roosevelt in reply to letters pledging the loyalty of Seattle Sodalists and our prayerful co-operation with our Chief Executive. Mother’s Day was observed this year as usual with a novena of Masses and Communions offered by the boys for their mothers. On the closing day of the novena mothers and boys assisted at Holy Mass and received Communion together in our chapel after which breakfast was served and a program rendered by the boys for their mothers. As a fitting close to the year’s program impressive May devotions were conducted each day of Our Lady’s month with the entire student body attending. Thus, then, with a prayer of gratitude to our Queen and Mother for the numerous favors showered upon us we close our year’s work with a sense of satisfaction in the accomplishment of worth-while things for a noble cause.
