The White and Blue of Nineteen Hundred Twenty-Four John Francis Weston “JACK” “SMILER” “IRISH” “He paced the noiseless pathzmy of his life as modest and unassuming as the rill by the roadside. ' ’ “For me there is no peace but one.” Dramatics 2, 3. League of the Sacred Heart 1, 2, 3, 4. Class Treasurer 3, 4. Class Track 3. N THE days of Freshman foolishness, through the period of wise Sophomore days, even unto the culmination of our somber and serious Senior Philosophy, “Jack” has proved to he a source of “youthful and merry jollity.” Blessed with an optimistic spirit that radiated happi- ness in its wake, “Smiler Jack,” with his “top of the morning to ye,” has done a great deal to help us “pack up our troubles.” But “jack” is philanthropically inclined also. He is ever disposed to lend his every effort in promoting the happiness and social elevation of his friends. His motives are always of the highest, having at heart the well-being of humanity. In all his associations with us, we have learned one thing from “Jack,” and that is: Faith in mankind. And just as he has had faith in us, and we faith in him, so will the world place its confidence in him, especially when they find that beneath his cheerful and light surface, there is a current of deep, silent sincerity flowing to success. 27

The White and Blue of Nineteen Hundred Twenty-Four Albert Elmer Warzaley • “JUDGE” “AL” “SUPREME” “Large was his bounty and his soul sincere.” “A face to lose one’s life for; ay, ami more, To live for!” Class Baseball 3, 4. Class Football 3, 4. Glee Club 3. Dramatics 4. Business Manager The Sctonian 4. Setonia Club Member 4. O, THIS gentleman with the patted-down hair-comb is not Rudolph Valentino but “A1 Warsley,” our illustrious classmate. He hails from that renowned metropolis of Jeanesville (somewhere in America). A1 is one of the famous (or is it notorious?) Pennsylvanian trio of the Class of ’24. Ever since he joined us, his record has been an enviable one. When he left Fordham at the close of his Sophomore year, his good fortune led him to the open arms of his present Alma Hater. Here he spent the final two years of his college career. During that time we found him to be a diligent and assiduous student and a staunch friend. As the business manager of The Sctonian he contributed much towards its success. But A1 was not “all work and no play.” A good joke received more appre- ciation from him than from anyone else in the class. His jovial presence rendered it impossible for us to have a long face., for his perpetual smile was better than a tonic for dispelling the “blues.” We refrain from enumerating in detail all his accomplishments and characteristics, for A1 is very modest and we do not wish to have him blush. His good humor and manliness have endeared him to all his companions who know that this name will some day shine brilliantly in the Hall of Fame. 26
