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 The Orchestra THE ORCHESTRA, always a popular organization in Seattle College High School, has just completed another year of successful activity. Though few in numbers, our players have shown remarkable ability and have, through constant, diligent practice, been a credit to the school whenever they appeared. The splendid spirit of union and co-operation displayed at all times by the members of the orchestra has made practice a pleasure and a profitable source of relaxation for our music makers. A word of appreciation is due the members of this organization who have helped in a very practical way to foster loyalty and school spirit in the student body. The personnel of the orchestra is: Rev. J. E. Moffat, Director; Philip Hargreaves, Joseph J. Miller, Arthur I. Pilon, Corvin Johnson, George Morry, Arthur Conley, Joseph Bauer, Arthur Meagher, John Dougherty, Raymond Basel, and Richard Cahan. ❖ ► McHugh Debating Society THE McHugh Debating Society this year has had one of its most successful seasons. At the beginning of the year, Andrew Murray was elected honorary chairman. Under the able tutelage of Mr. Carmody, S.J., the members of the Society progressed well in the fine art of debating. Practically every question of present-day importance was discussed by the young debaters. The members of this Society have a unique advantage of listening to and participating in interesting discussions of political and economic questions. The year’s climax was the traditional gold medal debate. The subject for discussion was Resolved: That the United States should cancel the inter-allied war debts.” The affirmative was upheld by Messrs. Murray, Kelly and Santi of the Senior class; the negative supporters were Messrs. Kossel and Divine of the Junior class and Peter of the Sophomore class. The affirmative won the well-debated question and Mr. Santi was judged the best debater. Mr. Peter was given second place. The gold medal will be awarded on Commencement night, May 31st. The chairman and judges on this occasion were Alumni of the High School celebrating quinquennial anniversaries of their own graduation. Mr. Cyril Fairhurst, ’08, acted as chairman, and J. LeRoy Carroll, ’13, Mr. Walter Gallager, ’18, and Byril Groseclose, ’23, were the judges. ❖ • The Palestra AT the beginning of the school year the Palestra, or school paper, was brought out of oblivion. Each class had its own paper and a day on which to publish it. •A- A. Toward the close of the school year, in order to achieve unity, the class papers were combined into one single edition which was put out each week. A plan to print the Palestra next year has been suggested which we hope will mature. Staff: Faculty Moderator, Mr. E. Dowd, S.J.; Editor-in-Chief, Jos.
