Martin. With us from the first days of our freshman year, Reverend Father Martin guided and directed us With a thoughtfulness that we will long remember, and never lost an opportunity of exerting his priestly Zeal for our spiritual and temporal welfare. For all his efforts on our behalf we are most grateful, and with our expression of thanks We join our cordial greetings, and trust that amid his many duties as Pastor he will not be unmindful of the Senior Class of 1932.

Words can hardly express our feel- ing and appreciation of his work-he cer- tainly is a born leader. His cheery smile and pleasing personality have endeared him to both faculty and student body. He has that certain something thatgwellfwe just can't explain. We feel sure that Jimmie will be a success in Whatever walk of life he follows, and with heartfelt thanks for all his efforts in our behalf we all take leave of our Class President Wishing him every happiness and blessing for the future. CATHERINE BERTHA SISARBFLI. '1he better known the greater is her worth. During our Junior year. we elected Cath- erine our Vice-President, and We may Well be proud of our choice. Catherines scholastic record is well worth mentioning for seldom has her name been missing from the Honor Roll. She ,excels in Spanish, particularly in the Spanish Club, in which she has been for the past two years an active member. Cath- erine intends to enter Normal in the fall and we are sure that her career as a teacher will b a fine one.

GERALD JosEPH BARNICLE -fc.A.f-CfQ A 1'hrz'ce noble is the man who of himself is king. Gerald or HBarney has certainly proved a capable Class Treasurer. lt is difficult to con- ceive how he can take part in so many activi- ties and maintain such a creditable scholastic record, His splendid work for two years on the Debating Team, his commendable acting in A'Cat Ol Nine Tails and The Mummy and the lVlumps : also his line work on the athletic field, his membership in the French Club and on the Write-up Committee, all show him to be a clever all-round student and one of whom the Class of 1932 may well be proud. Cienial in his intercourse, and sincere in his friendships he has won that much desired treasure-the genuine esteem of his fellow classmates.

Francis, though he is bright and happy, aspires to the position which Albie Booth will leave vacant in college sports by his graduation this June. Who dares to say that Francis is not ambitious, for Booth's record has been a spectacular one in the world of sports for the last three years. While at high school Francis has been a member of the Latin and French clubs, where much of his sparkling wit and humor lent itself to the pleasure and happiness of all his classmates. May the best success crown Francis' efforts in his future career. HENRX' JOSEPH BERGERON W1'stlcJm speaks little, but that little well, Henry certainly knows what it means to have a good high school education, and he has sacrificed a great deal-more than we have ever realized. since he started out early each morning from Greenville, N. H., in order to attend our school, He has been a hard- working student during his four years at St. Bernard's and very appreciative of his fine training. This was very evident by his work and interest in the Spanish Club, the Decoration Committee for the Junior-Senior Reception. and the gridiron. Best of luck. Henry: we feel that your future will be as successful as your past, Ag . f ,ist if e.

That is why we chose it for her, as a tribute to her high scholastic record through- out high school days. She has been a hard and con- scientious worker and her constant application to her studies has given her a splendid rating, and a place on the High Honor Roll, Though quiet and reserved. Beatrice has made many friends at St. Bernard's High in the course of her four years. We trust, Beatrice, that the friendships of school days will continue and add much to your future happiness. ev fc ,W-t, , ,Tiff ,f Q ea, e..:.sf:' f'.,,.lQ,J Q 634- ,, K l , t K 5 lb NM '--we 11..w.a......,..i........ . , Law- at. , . n M W.-f-...,.J .J-f A ,Ji eizriii '- a ..,.,.. ., t it ,222 E .. 55 Aims, .,-gi 5- 40, X -.

H. .CSM F ,v X R Coach lost-:ph 'Tarpey lt is the Senior class in particular, which has had the great pleasure of wel- coming lVlr. Joseph Tarpey, both as coach of Football, Baseball, and Basket ball, and as the new member of the faculty. Mr. Tarpey came to us from Ware High School where he enjoyed three successful seasons as athletic coach. At this time he produced two championship football teams which won the Twin State lnterscholastic Basketball Tourna- ment held in that section. He graduated from Vermont University in l926 where he starred in all sport departments. Shortly after he became Athletic Di- rector at Carmel Hall Preparatory School in Stafford, Connecticut, and in the following year he joined the Ware High School faculty. We feel that Coach Tarpey has already repeated his previous success with St. Bernard's first Football Team, and hope that the future will add much glory to his past achievements. In parting from St. Bernard's High, we, the Seniors, extend our heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Tarpey for his kindly interest in us, and also our sincerest wishes for a bright and happy career both in the classroom and in the field of athletics. l fuk fs l if j, JO, if J! xy , ,iff J f 5 ,jf I ATHLETICS FOOTBALL TEAM 1931 The First lfiootball Season The seniors have been fortunate in being the first graduating class to have enjoyed the privilege of inaugurating and supporting the first football team to represent St. Bernard's High on the gridiron, And a loyal support it was, on the part of the Seniors, as well as the other class members in cheering the first team to victory after victory. It is therefore fitting that we, the graduating class of '32, show honor to the Hrst seniors to ever represent St. Bernard's on the gridiron by paying due homage to the following letter-men: O'Sullivan, Dipietro, Flan- nery, McCarthy, Hughes, Rogers, Donahue, Sullivan, Byrne, Barnicle, Small. a St. Bernard's opened up on October lZ with a very formidable foe: Cush- ing Academy Seconds, Coach Tarpey had the boys in fine condition for the opening fray, and promptly at 9.30 the boys dashed out on the new Athletic Field, led by Red Flannery, elected captain for the first game. St. Bernard's won the toss and chose to receive. Mackie received the place- ment and ran it back eight yards. By continued off-tackle plays St. Bernard's soon advanced the ball far down the field. Here, on the twenty-yard line Cush- ing put up a hard fight but was unable to withstand the surge of the St. Bernard gridsters and Mackie carried it over for a touchdown in the first period. He then kicked the goal and the boys dashed back down the field with happy hearts- they had scored their first touchdownf As the game advanced it soon became evi- dent that St. Bernard's score was a complete surprise to Cushing Seconds, as they were unable to drive into St. Bernard's territory but they put up a staunch fight and held St. Bernard's to a 7-O victory. A E The first game was a splendid victory with Mackie and Hughes starring in the backfield, and brilliant tackling on the part of Barnicle and McCarthy, The next opponent was St. Joseph's High of Manchester, a stronger team than Cushing with three straight victories to their credit. In this game, however, fumbles prevent St. Bernard's from cashing in with a victory but they certainly gave a good demonstration of themselves against such a powerful Opponent. The gains completed by Hughes and Mackie were made void by costly fumbles, The whole team had the fighting spirit requisite for victory, and throughout the game it looked as though St. Bernard's would take St. Joseph's into camp. The first score came in the third period when Ahern, flashy quarter-back for St. Joseph, ran a punt back 85 yards clear down the side line for a touchdown. St. Bernard's, however, forced the going after this and in the fourth period con- ',.3...fim'fif'f 'i m 'Ki T iiiii e'e fM'qE2t..,.S5?5s zfasttsz ma :,fe11rf:,t 2:32125 Qli'Cf3iQii'XN,- E Q verted a costly St. Joseph's fumble into a touchdown. Both teams forced each other to the limit for the remainder of the period but neither team was able to score. Thus the second game was a close contest, with St. Bernard's boys again showing themselves to be a strong football aggregation, and holding St. Jo- seph's to a 6-6 score. The next encounter was Murdock High. another undefeated rival. St. Bernard's were checked throughout by their heavier opponents but in the second half St. Bernard's unleashed a passing attack that bewildered their opponents. The first period was scoreless with Mackie on the latter side of a punting duel. In the second period Murdock scored, by continual drives through tackle. The third period was scoreless, and until the fourth period was a few minutes old. the fans were worried. ln this period St. Bernard's resorted to passing and took the ball to Murdock's 4 yard line from where Mackie scored behind perfect interference. St. Bernard's had no sooner received again than Mackie whipped a pass to Hughes who advanced the ball to Murdock's 10 yard line, from which in a series of three downs St. Bernard's scored and Mackie kicked the goal with a beautiful triumph for St. Bernard's 13-7. Before a large crowd on November 7 St. Bernard's met its strongest op- ponent Keith Academy of Lowell. Keith was the supposed favorite but St. Ber- nard's turned a complete surprise both on the fans and on Keith by scoring within four minutes after the starting whistle. From then on the going was tough for both teams until in the fourth period Mackie intercepted a Keith pass and dashed 75 yards for the concluding touchdown with one more victory for St. Bernard's I2-O. In the last game of the season St. Bernard's proved much too strong for Templeton and handed them a 33-0 defeat. The contest was rather dull for the biggest crowd of the season but St, Bernard's showed up strongly and concluded a successful season in blaze of glory. To be sure it was a short but formidable season for the first season but a more successful one could not be expected. Four victories and one tie game out of five contests. Much praise is to be given to Coach Tarpey for developing such completely green material into such a successful team. The opponents were not too strong, and by no means weak, but in future years with stronger opponents selected from the recognized leaders in football circles much is to be expected of St. Bernard's: and we, the graduating Class and members of the first Football Team known that much will be accomplished under the guidance of Coach Tar- pey, our new teacher-coach, 4 L, ,,,g,,,Q, ,Aw ,,,,,,..,,m1..,,.,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,.,.,,,A,,,,,,.,,,,,,,....-............,.......,.,.,.

Basket Ball 11931632 The Basket Ball season opened on New Year's Day. lt also marked the debut of Coach Tarpey as mentor at St. Bernard's. The season was compara- tively successful especially since there was only one veteran from the previous season, Captain William Mackie. Coach Tarpey's effort to develop a smooth working basketball machine was rewarded with an opening victory over St. Louis High of Webster. The season progressed with St, Bernard's winning ten games and losing six. These games provided for the fans much action. The Hnal game against St. Mary's High of Milford was the most exciting ever seen in the Harvard Street Gymnasium and has marked the Swan Song for: Cierald Barnicle, Edward Byrne, Thomas Carroll, Geoffrey Hughes and Paul Rogers. Captain Billy Mackie was the all-round star showing the ability that has marked him as one of the greatest basket ball players in the vicinity. ST. BERNARD'S ATHLETIC FIELD BERNARD?

ST. BERNARD'S HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA , Y J. Catholic Missions Our present Holy Father, Pope Pius Xl, is known most generally as the Pope of the Missionsf' This does not mean that his interests are centered alone upon the missions in heathen lands: for as Holy Father his interests for the welfare of his flock are universal. His intrepid faith, notwithstanding the many obstacles which he has encountered, and the scarcity of human means at his com- mand, has guided him onward, and has enabled him to spread the protecting wings of the Church throughout the world. The great missionary activity of the Church today appears all the more wonderful when we remember that the hard trials through which she had passed had almost entirely deprived her of the means and power required for such work. Her worldly goods had been taken from?-Mher by secularization and she was reduced nearly everywhere to the greatest- posfei-rlgy. Numberless convents were closed and religious institutions annihilateid-3 and tduiing the time that the poisonous influence of unbelief was felt, the'gChurch waisiin many ways hin- dered from bestowing her fostering care upoi A' e missions. God, the Omnipotent, saw, and would not let His teachings fall into ob- scurity, but inspired His servants with the will of spreading the missions and He Himself blessed their efforts with success. So that, now, there is a spiritual army of more than 310,000 heroic warriors battling throughout the world for the glory of God, the salvation of souls, and for the deliverance of men from the temporal and spiritual evils which oppress them. These zealous workers may be found in every part of the universe strug- gling to imprint upon the souls of men the all important doctrines of Christ. These cohorts of our Saviour may be seen plodding through the icy snows of the glazed Northlands, or ferreting their persevering way to the most remote and inaccessible kingdoms of Asia, or preaching the gospel under the corroding sun of parched Africa. ln Europe and in our own dear America the constant fanatics My :n:tmf:,afat3ti:sMJ crznzsil-V it i A L P- i fe 1 ' T if if prayers and teachings of our priests serve to promote Catholicity to the very highest degree. In our consideration of the Mission work we must not overlook those valiant, courageous religious who have given their lives to the divine service, and who have sacrificed all that was near and de-ar to them so that they might fur- ther prove their all-consuming love for Jesus by helping the missionaries to teach the tenets of our faith to those bereft of spiritual comfort. These religious lead diversified lives caring for the sick, serving as teachers in schools and colleges. housing and mothering orphans, and playing various other roles, all for the furtherance of the Catholic religion. Let us thank God for his vigilance over us and our fellowmen, and pray that those consecrated to Him may continue the glorious Work of the propaga- tion of the faith, and let us often unite our yearning desire to that of our great and saintly Pontiff, that many others-nay even we ourselves, if God so wills it-may join the noble ranks of the consecrated toilers whose untiring efforts tend toward the accomplishment of one great ideal-the establishment of One Fold and One Shepherd. -Dorothy Shea ::nzt:,s an M':t1rfs,HlJm:s,a.n omuzsk i K. g I .--g....,,........a.. , I X X 1 3 Q N 5 ra R I iff li x ,M ,,,A we AWQ' 'NAVY nh Y--1JAMvT -V an 5 Debating Club OFFICERS GEOFFREY HUGHES ,.,., , THOMAS CARROLL JOHN SWEENEY O GERALD BARNICLE .
