Noser, Si llivan JUNIOR B IN September, 19?4, the light'minded sophomores of last year returned to take up the heav-ier duties of juniors. At Mr. Walterskirchen's first call for football players Branigan, Nestor, Brandmeir, Stimpson and Kelly answered. Indeed, we were well represented—Nestor, Branigan and Stimpson being on the first squad. After the dust, accumulated during the summer, was polished off our brains, and the class had settled down to business, elections were held. “Bud Nestor was the unanimous choice for president: Paul Cullinane was selected as vice-president; and Jack Noser was elected secretary-treasurer. With the passing of football, basketball was given the enthusiasm of the season. Although Three B had no members on the maple court representing the school, nevertheless, we backed the team to the full extent of our ability. In the interclass league Three B led the chase for some time, but lost the championship game to Three A. The lone representative of Three B who made good in baseball was Cullinane doing a good job in covering right field. Guiding us in the course of our studies were Fr. Prange, S. J., religion; Mr. Evoy, S. J., English; Mr. Greif, S. J., chemistry; Mr. McDonald. S. J., economics, sociology, Spanish I; Mr. McGruder, history; Mr. Geis, S. J., Latin; and Mr. O'Brien, S. J., Spanish II, public speaking. During the sch(X)l year the class was always active, taking a prominent part in all activities; such as, the food drive, the old-clothes drive, and the drive to secure expense money for the debaters on their trip to Spokane. Nestor made gcxxl in dramatics, taking a prominent role in “A Christmas Carol. Noser was on the staffs of the Echo and Panther, while Brislawn participated in the Elocution Contest. In all activities a new spirit pervaded. It was a spirit of the keener kind of loyalty, of a desire to make Seattle Prep known and respected, of a fervor to keep alive the flaming enthusiasm that infects the veins of the institution which we feel is our own.

Sheehan, Donohoe JUNIOR A AHOY, there! The ship of '36 pulls slowly into port for a three'month tic-up before beginning the fourth and last lap of its high school voyage. Mr. Logan, S. J., has piloted his ship well, ably assisted by Dick DeDonato, first mate; Jack Green, second mate; Jack Naughton, purser; and Tom Finn, irons keeper. In the ship's log there is a long and varied list of activities in which the passengers participated. Three A won the intramural basketball championship, gave valuable support to the Dramatic Club productions and composed neary half of the Senior Debate Club. Two of those registered, O'Gorman and Wilson, represented Three A in the Cold Medal Debate, while DeDonato and Wilson participated in the annual Elocution Contest. Besides the studious group there were many notable athletes aboard. Football, basketball, baseball—all profited by the aid of junior classmen. The lettermen, Colacarro, Claudon, Donovan, Finn, Green, Naughton, Sheehan and Wilson, comprised the brawny crew, and stuck by the ship until the end. Mr. Logan guided the ship through the narrow channels of Latin and Greek, while Mr. Evoy, S. J., took the wheel on the open sea of English. In history there was a divided course; Mr. McDonald, S. J., commanded the first semester, while Mr. McGruder finished the term. And while Mr. Grief, S. J., peered over chemistry maps and rules in the chart room, Mr. O'Brien, S. J., and Mr. Dachy, S. J., navigated in the Spanish and French bays. Led by their ever-increasing spirit of achievement, the Junior As have completed their most successful year. They have always most willingly given their all for the sake of the school, and have at the same time devoted themselves toward developing into the ace” class of Seattle Prep. The crew and passengers are assembling on deck as the S.S. '36 docks. Father Maruca, S. J., extending a farewell to the departing group of seniors, assures the juniors that next year should be the happiest and most successful part of their high school journey. PAGE TWELVE

Stewart SOPHOMORE A COMING hack to school as sophomores, we entered into all affairs determined to have Two A at the top of the ladder. Though we did not succeed in all, we did our share in the expression of school loyalty. Mr. Logan, S. J., guided us through Caesar and syntax, and replaced Mr. Geis, S. J., as religion teacher for the second semester. Under Mr. Flajole, S. J., our historical minds concentrated on Napoleon instead of Pericles. Mr. O’Hara, S. J., tcx)k over the class in angles for the second semester after Mr. Nealen, S. J., had expounded the theories and rules for the first. Mr. McGruder taught English in place of Mr. Hermens, S. J., for the second term of the year. Our scholastic standing was high, having several students on the honor roll. One hundred per cent marked our subscriptions to the Echo, and nearly the same for the school paper. At the same time we were well represented in the Junior Sodality and Junior Debate Club, while the Panther staff received the work of several members. Bill Bates, a tireless president; “Wally Carroll, a fearless vice-executive; George Ryan, a marvel at finance; and Don Keefe, the strong-hoy of the class, were all popular choices for their respective offices. Football beckoned Carroll and Ryan from our ranks to earn their varsity letter. Carroll and Merrick were gcxxl enough to merit their stripes on the maple flcx r, and on the baseball diamond we boasted of Boxer, Carroll and Merrick. Moreover, the junior teams were replete with our contributions. Although a summer vacation is gladly welcomed, it is only with hopes of a greater year next September, when we return as juniors to show again our school loyalty and class spirit. fa PACE I-Ol.RTEP.N
