Majestic giant, towering granite wall, To watch where yon the silver waters fall In mystic shower. No flow'ry paths adorn thee with their bloom- Tall whispering pines send forth their rich perfume Athwart thy ledges. Beneath thy feet the powdered highways run All bright with mottled sheen of noonday sun At river's edges. The clouds in billows toss their snowy manes About thy crevices and rugged fanes As we behold thee.

Rouleau El CQQQ Ci'lS'5g W T K J hr Cblumnm' uf mar AR as conceived by some people may be likened to a game of chess. They look upon it more or less as the interesting pastime of rival kings, in which a multitude of human pawns are placed upon the .chess board of the battlefield and with cold scien- nd order are maneuvered, moved and sacri- tilic precision a Heed in one great game. The chess board may represent the battleiield. The pawns of the game are the companies and battalions of living soldiers, the obedient instruments of belligerent governments. The game itself is war, stripped of all its realism and dread significance, nothing more than an array of moving units. But there is another and truer conception of warg a con- ception of war not as a scientific contest or a strategic enter- prise of nations, but as the hideous expression of passion triumphant over reason, the wild orgy of ghastly exploits and sanguinary strifeg the embodiment of all that is abhor- rent to the eye of man, of all that is most repulsive to his feelings, of all that is most adverse to the natural yearnings of his heart. And well we might conceive of war as such. Shattering all the sweet ties of domestic happiness, peace and simple contentment, war, like some clutching fist of mail, reaches into the hallowed precincts of the home and snatches from out the warmful associations and loving sympathies of family life, the very iiower of young manhood. And for what? To tear those beloved creatures into pieces with jagged shot, until they starve and parch and perish through days of endless torture, deserted on the battlefield. Proud cities, the costly products of ceaseless human toil, have raised their towering edifices with civic majesty. But war transforms the healthful activity of industry into the wild, THE GLAMOUR OF WAR 9 maddened action of the battlefield. War crushes the thriving cities and leaves a desolate ruin, a fruitless field, a dreary waste. Many civilizations there have been, epoch-making triumphs of mankind, the growth of evolutionary develop- ment. They have held their allotted sway upon the earthg they have reached heights in arts, in science, never known before. But even these vast civilizations have found their ruin by the sword. War has shaken their lirmarnent until, like the falling stars, they have plunged from the very zenith of glorious achievements down into the abyss of degradation, This is the record of war. When we consider War's direful pictureg those scenes of grieving families, broken homes, ruined cities, wasted nations and tottering civilizations, we fully realize that war is terrible. Yet, strange to say, in spite of all this horror, there is a glamour, a fascination, an almost inexplicable witchery, that inspires us with admirationg there is a thrill which makes our hearts beat quickly. Let us consider for a while this thrill, its effect on literature and the cause of the thrill. We all remember how in days of childhood we listened with beaming eyes and with a feverish emotion of youth to those strange old tales of battles and of wars, of brave deeds and valiant men. How our young breasts thrilled at such inspiring stories. How we loved to hear our parents at eventide tell us of Richard the Lion-Hearted and his bold Crusaders, or of the daring knights of the Round Table, or of Napoleon's lightning strokes. How we loved to paint with the rich coloring of the youthful mind those glorious scenes. just as, long ago, the boy Spartacus, sitting at the feet of his aged grandsire, heard with throbbing temples and cheeks aglow with a mysterious ardor, those rousing tales of Marathon and Leuctra, so we in childhood days desired to hear those stirring tales of wars and heroes. . We were thrilled not only with the deeds, but even with the death of heroes. Yes, even at tales of death in the ranks 1U THE IGNATIAN of battle we were not shockedg we were not horrifiedgiwe were inspired by that same mysterious, irresistible emotion. We felt that such a death is glorious. Come to the- bridal chamber, Death, Come in consumption's ghastly form, The earthquake's shock, the ocean storm, And thou art terrible! , But to the hero, when his sword Has won the battle for the free, Thy voice sounds like a prophet's word, And in its hollow tones are heard The thanks of millions yet to be. We tell his doom without a sighg For he is Freedom's now, and Fame's- One of the few, the immortal names, That were not born to die. In more mature years, as we emerged from the fanciful days of childhood, as we learned to appreciate the purpose of various wars, and as we began to realize what great causes, what great principles, what great blessings are won and lost through the cruel arbitrament of the sword, then our enthu- siasm was increased, our thrilling interest in war was intensi- fied. The Crusades were fought that the sacred soil of Palestine might be purged of the sacrilegious, scoiiing Sara- cen. Are we disgusted at the .cost in blood and in life of those holy wars? No, we are aflame with the holy cause. Our revolution was fought that our nation might be free. Do we not thrill at the recollection of each sad event of that sorrowful time? Our Civil War was fought that our nation, conceived in liberty, might endure. It was fought to spread the cause of freedom through the world. just as we have felt the thrill of war, so people of every century have been influenced by the same subtle emotion. We are not surprised therefore to End that war is the pre- dominant note in all literature. Poets and orators, thrilling ., if .wwuiamwvw f- f Wi, - w? . .1 THE GLAMOUR OF WAR 11 with the spirit of war, have gloried in the war theme. We have no time to even mention the hundreds of stirring war anthems and songs and odes and tales and speeches of every nation, so we shall give our attention to a few of the more eminent authors. Homer, the master poet of all ages, has painted with unfading colors the ten years' war of Troy. As the pure waxen lily bursts from the stagnant pond, as the silken corn with grains of living gold springs from corruption, so also the beautiful works of Homer have taken being from the blood-soaked fields of Troy. The characters of the Homeric poems have been an in- spiration to all succeeding ages. There is the wise Ulysses, fertile of resources, indomitable of will. His .love-like wis- dom and unconquerable will are ever at the service of his country. He is ever planning new schemes to help the Grecian cause. Now in the assembly of kings he stands to offer godlike wisdomg now amid the brawling soldiery he stirs up wild enthusiasm. Although he has suffered greatly for his native land, both with those that loved him, and alone, on shore, and when through scudding drifts the rainy Hyades vext the dim seag yet he finds it dull to pause, to make an end, to rust unburnished, not to shine in use. mighty Achilles grieving Beside a snow-white tent sits over an injustice done him. Without his aid the tide of battle turns against the Greeks. But when he hears of the slaughter of his friends, he enters into battle and none dare stand against him. To avenge the death of his friends he seals the doom of Troy, and amid the glory of the con- quest yields up his own life for those he loves. Homer not only arouses admiration for the numerous selfless heroes and heroines of the war, but holds up to everlasting contempt the selfish slackers. When the cox- comb, Paris, fled from battle he sought refuge among the 12 THE IGNATIAN women of his home. Hector, wishing to urge him in'f0 U16 fray, found him in the glittering rooms, admiring his 11561655 weapons and chatting with the women. The hero thus addressed him : Thy hate to Troy, is this the time to show O wretch, ill-fated, and thy country's foe! For thee great Ilium's guardian heroes fall, Till heaps of dead alone defend her Wally For thee the soldier bleeds, the matron mourns, And wasteful war in all its fury burns. Ungrateful man! deserves not this thy care, Our troops to hearten, and our toils to share? Rise, or behold the conquering flames ascend, And all the Phrygian glories at an end. Even a philosopher can draw inspiration from a poet. Alexander the Great with 30,000 soldiers swept through Asia Minor, and down through Persia, completely shattering the Persian Empire that was defended by millions. Across into Egypt he Hung his men, subjugating that ancient empire. Later he defeated the warlike Scythians. Then he descended upon India, placing that land of mystery under his sway. Where did he get his spirit? Among the mountainous strongholds of Macedonia where he spent his youth. There in his father's palace he received all his education from the mightiest, the most subtle intellect that ever shed luster on this world-Aristotle, the peerless, trained the young Alex- ander, and his textbook was Homer. The whole of Greek literature throbs with the spirit of war. Demosthenes in his speeches aroused the Athenians to action by showing them the danger of their Country and the glory of a patriot's death. Pericles by his orations kept the tire aglow. The dramatist Sophocles so loved war as to command that his epitaph should mention his share in the victory of Marathon, but should contain no allusion to his dramatic triumphs. , . -,- f Q:--L Aa, 1-,mfr '7.'..,- v n .4f ' E E THE GLAMOUR OF WAR 13 If from the war-laden atmosphere of ancient Greece we turn our thoughts to the fair land of Italy, we look, not without reason, for milder themes. Surely in that land of sunshine and of flowers men must have caught the spirit of love, of peace, and of the gentler sentiments. This is true. They find inspiration in the brooks, in the flowers of the field, and in the grandeur of home life. Even Virgil, Rome's greatest poet, glorifies the beauties of nature. How often we find such expressions in his poems: Now wears the juniper its leafy pride And the rough chestnut throws its branches wide. He exalts the labor of men who cultivate the land: Ah! happy swain! ah! race beloved of heaven, For thee just earth from her prolific beds Far from wild war, spontaneous plenty sheds. Nay, Virgil seems even to have caught the idea of uni- versal peace. In his wonderful fourth Eclogue he strikes a note that seems prophetic of the Prince of Peace. And yet when we turn to his masterpiece, we are greeted with the familiar words: Arma virumque cano! Of arms and a hero I sing! The very first word of his mighty poem, which for grandeur is not surpassed in human literature, the very keynote of the organ-like Aeneid is Arrna--Arms I Nor does he sing of arms in a half-hearted way. Virgil is no pacifist. His hero Aeneas is bold in arms. Brave souls! he cries to his men of Troy, We feeble few conspire To save a sinking town involved in fire. If we must fall, we'll fall amid our foes. Death has no horrors for Aeneas. Haste, gird on my sword, though I be spent and overcomeg 'Tis the last summons to receive our doom. Restore me to the yet unfinished fight, My death is wanting to conclude the night. 14 THE IGNATIAN When in the sixth book Virgil describes the noble achieve- ments of famous Romans, he selects almost exclusively, the achievements of battle, the Gracchi are set before us, and the Scipios, those thunderbolts of war. In fact, the gentle Virgil seems to prefer battle to the fine arts. He is willing that Rome should yield in every- thing except in prowess. Let others better mold the running mass Of metal, and inform the breathing brass, And soften into flesh a marble faceg Plead better at the barg describe the skies, Tell when the stars descend and when they rise. But, Rome, be it thine alone with awful sway To rule mankind and make the world obey! Enough of Virgil. Other Latin masterpieces have the same theme. The greatest speech of Cicero, Pro Lege Manilia, is a war speech. The annals of Tacitus are annals of war. Pliny is a war correspondent. Caesar's commen- taries are war notes of a skilled general. A Coming down the centuries we find the same ,glorification of war in the world's literature. Dante, it is true, is not a war poet in the strict sense of the word, but he had in view a war that is far more prevalent and far more im- portant than the conflict of nations. He describes with elo- quence the war of the soul against the triple alliance, the world, the flesh and the devil. In his Inferno he describes the condition of the prisoners of warg in his Purgatorio he tells of those who were wounded in the battle, but not unto deathg and in his Paradiso he depicts the glories of those who triumph over the enemies. Tasso was not satisfied with this mystic warfareg his genius led him to seek a theme that had to do with the grim reality and he found it in the Crusades. Jerusalem Deliv- ered is a glorification of a war that is worthy of the heroes, who led the soldiers of the Cross to victory. A ,-,,,,,.,,,,..f M THE GLAMOUR OF WAR 15 But be it always remembered that within the narrow lim- its of this paper we cannot touch upon the hundreds of smaller works. Nay, more, lest we exceed the limits as- signed us, we shall delay no longer on the masterpieces of other languages, but shall come to those of our own tongue. Were we to look for war literature of excelling worth in the English tongue, we should have no difficulty in finding it. Shakespeare revels in the clash of arms. But for the sake of sublimity let us choose Milton. His gloriiication of war and of a war hero, though it is hardly Christian, is yet unique. Let us fly with Milton on the wings of imagination through boundless space to the battlements of Heaven, to the realms of eternal peace and harmony. On this day the grand monotony of Heaven is disturbed. By imperial com- mand angelic hosts from all the ends of heaven assemble innumerably before the throne of God. He himself gives forth a decree: Here is my Son, Who in ages yet to come will assume a lowly form. Him I appoint as your head. Let every knee in Heaven bow to Himf' Satan quickly moves among his friends and says: Shall we leave aside all noble deeds to cringe before the Messiah's throne and hymn His everlasting praise? We are princes, not slaves. We are unused to the yoke. Yet soon we shall be forced to draw with servile strength His chariot through the star-paved road of Heaven. With the battle-cry, We are not slaves, one-third of the countless hosts rebel. All day long the noise of battle rolled. At last the Messiah armed with ten thou- sand thunders rides forth in His chariot of power. Right on He drives through the rebel ranks trampling them into one indiscriminate flock. Underneath their feet the founda- tions of Heaven open wide disclosing a spacious gap into the dark abyss. Headlong they fling themselves down, eternal wrath burning after them, and driving them down, down through chaos, down to the place prepared for them. 16 THE IGNATIAN Satan rolling on a fiery gulf recovers from his stupor, confounded though immortal. With head uplifted above the wave and eyes that sparkling shine, he views the dismal situation waste and wild: a dungeon horrible, on all Sides round as one great furnace fiamesg yet from those flames no light, but rather a visible darkness serves only to dis- cover sights of woe, regions of sorrow, doleful shades, where peace and rest and hope can never dwell. How unlike the place from whence he fell! Then with expanded wings he steers his Hight, incumbent on the dusky air, till he rests on the dry land that burns with solid fire. He muses: Is this the place that we must change for Heaven? This mournful gloom for that celestial light? Farewell, happy fields, where joy forever dwells! Hail, horrors! Hail, infemal world! Receive thy new possessor, one who brings a mind not to be changed by time or place, a mind that can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven. On the beach of that iiaming sea he stands and calls his legions, angel forms, who lie there dazed, thick as auturnnal leaves that strew the brooks. In spite of fierce pains the stunned angels rolling in the flood with scattered arms and ensigns obey their general's voice. In double rank they stand about him trusting even yet in his courage. He above the rest in shape and gesture, proudly eminent stands like a tower. Deep scars of thunder have intrenched his face. Care sits on his faded cheek, but under brows of dauntless courage. His unutterable agony is subdued by the energy of his soul. His will triumphs over the most terrible ele- ments of nature. His courage is made visible by the racking pains which itoverpowers. The all-enduring, all-defying courage of Satan inspires his legions with confidence. Hell yields to the spirit which it imprisons. By his strategy the gates of hell are openedg the war against heaven is renewed: the work of the Creator is undone on earth, and the happi- ness of the human race is blasted. THE GIJUIOUR OF WAR 17 War is terribleg yet there is a thrill, there is a glamour. Why? WVe find more than one cause of the enthusiasm pro- duced by war. It means manhood, unflinching courage in the midst of horrible sufferings. It means selflessness, for no warrior true to his profession will give a thought to his own petty interests. It means sacrifice, and sacrifice means love for others. These noble qualities always excite admira- tion in every breast. The great cause, however, underlying the enthusiasm is no doubt the justice, the righteousness, for which a nation fights. Take, for example, our present situa- tion. The world knows that the United States did not pro- voke war, but sought peace, and spared no efforts to secure it, and to end the disastrous conflict which threatens to destroy all traces of Christian civilization in the countries of Europe. But the 'honor of the United States was attacked, her dignity assailed and her power defied. What then could this nation do but raise the Hag and say: Whoever refuses respect to this Hag, whether it be an individual or an empire, shall be punishedu? Columbia may justly say to her army and navy, the flower of American manhood: I, your mother, have tried to up- hold the compact of the nations, and have been derided. I have tried to help my, citizens transacting peaceful business in other lands, and they have been constantly endangered. I have tried to feed the starving babes of other nations, and my own have been ruthlessly sent to the depths of the ocean. Take then, my flag, carry it far and wide without stain or reproach, make heroic sacrifices in its defense. In defending this flag you defend the grand and noble things for which it stands, liberty and order, and order in liberty. No sacri- fice is too great for such a cause. When the war will be over, let those of you who will survive, return to my shores, bearing the Star Spangled Banner, not stained in ignominious defeat, but made brighter with the new victories of universal freedom and righteousness and justice. An lilnivruirw with Arrhhinhnp Mauna mounted the stairs and rang the bell at 1100 Franklin Street.' I was delighted, and I had reason to be, for I was going to in- terview His Grace, the Most Reverend E. !L I. Hanna, Archbishop of San Francisco. Very few, I reflected, had been fortunate enough to enjoy this privilege. The door opened, and I was ushered into a plain but neat waiting room. I confess I felt rather im- portant as I sat there wondering how the Archbishop would receive me, and whether or not he would prove as kind and considerate as I had always imagined him. However, as the minutes passed by, my enthusiasm seemed to flee with them, and I found myself becoming apprehensive as to my ability as an interviewer. It was in this state of mind that Father James Cantwell found me. He announced that the Archbishop was ready to see me, and led me out of the room. We soon came to a long hallway, and there he left me with the advice that I should go straight ahead. Before I realized what he was doing he had disappeared, and there I stood, very uneasy to say the least, with the Archbishop waiting for me some- where in the building. I could not understand why Father Cantwell had deserted me, and I felt as though I would never forgive him for doing so. After a few moments spent in deep reflection, I started on rather aimlessly, and finally arrived at the end of the hall. A door was open on my right, so I approached it stealthily and peered into the room. I' WAS with a feeling of expectancy that I ti .nv r sf'-fi. so Come in, came from within in a most friendly tone. My presence had been detected! I obeyed and to my great relief found myself standing in front of Archbishop Hanna. His greeting was so friendly, and the smile that bright- 22 THE IGNATIAN ened his countenance so pleasant, that I immediately lost my uneasiness of a few minutes before. On what subject do you wish to interview me? the Archbishop asked. I shall leave the choice of a subject to you, I replied, trying to act as though I knew something about the art of interviewing. I thought that you would have something to say to the Catholics of San Francisco, something that you would desire to tell them. His hand went to his forehead, he thought for a moment, and then began. I believe that the most important thing for Catholics to understand is what we are striving for in this war, and how impossible it is to attain our end unless we have the old light and the old doctrine of the Catholic Church. We are fighting for liberty and for democracy. The story of the struggle for liberty is the most entrancing story contained in the annals of all time. It brings up before us pictures of the mighty heroes of the early ages, pictures of Washington and Lincoln and those beloved men who played such an im- portant part in our own great battles for right and for lib- erty. And we of to-day, who have taken our places in this momentous struggle, may learn from this story that which it is all important for us to realize, namely, that whenever democracy has failed, its downfall may be traced to greed. The doctrine of the Catholic Church is the only possible antidote for this consuming desire for gain. It teaches men the value of the spiritual. It brings them to a realization of the fact that the things that pass with time are naught in comparison with the wisdom that must remain forever. In short, it destroys their false ideals and reveals to them perhaps for the first time the possibility of winning some- thing the value of which cannot be measured by the stand- ard of the world. - AN INTERVIEW WITH ARCHBISHOP HANNA 23 He paused, and remembering that an interviewer is sup- posed to make suggestions now and then, I asked: Isn't it of the greatest importance that the people should learn to sacrifice? Yes, indeed, he replied instantly. Wherever there has been a struggle for liberty there has always been a willing- ness to sacrifice. Sacrifice must be the spirit of the day. Men must be taught that the ideals for which we struggle cannot possibly be attained unless there exists in their hearts the spirit of sacrifice. The struggle of the early Christians for religious liberty is undoubtedly the most magnificent the world has ever witnessed. In this struggle a handful of men went out to set up their ideals as the ideals of a nation, nay more, as the ideals of the whole world. Their wonder- ful victory in the face of almost invincible opposition has been the glory of the Church for ages, and it should teach us a great lesson, since only through the greatest sacrifice was it obtained. Ever since that time the Catholic Church has infused into the hearts of the faithful that same spirit of sacrifice that was responsible for the triumph of her in- fancy. And so I say that the doctrine of the Church is what we need to teach the people that they must sacrifice if they would enjoy the fruits of victory and success. What about the struggle to spread democracy? I in- terposed. There is no possibility of universal democracy unless men are brought to the recognition of the dignity of men. But how may this be accomplished? Search if you will for a means, but in the end you will have to choose the doctrine of the Catholic Church. For centuries it has combated the theory that the men of a nation are but so many cogs in a vast machine, and has taught men their real dignity. Men, it proclaims, are not mere beings, but are the children of God, destined by the Creator for the supernatural happiness 24 THE IGNATIAN of another world. Only, then, through the recognition of this doctrine can we hope to establish democracy. We strive, therefore, not for territorial gains or huge indemnities, but for the things more precious, for liberty and democracy, for peace. We strive, however, not for peace that means preparation for war, but for enduring peace, the peace that springs from respect for law, from reverence of the rights of fellow menf, But how, I asked, may we obtain this peace ? There can be no such peace in the world until men rec- ognize the higher moralitiesf' he answered, until they aban- don the theory that might is right. There is an ever-increas- ing need of moral education. Democracy, above all other forms of government, must rest upon the moral law. There- fore it is evident that there will be no permanent abiding peace until the men who sway the destinies of nations recog- nize the great moral sanctions of life, until they recognize the higher code taught by Christ, in accordance with which men are ruled by moral force. We need, as I have said, or more correctly speaking, the world needs moralueducation. In order to inculcate sound moral principles we must spread the doctrine of the Catholic Church. The world must be brought to the realization that men have certain inalienable rights of which they can not lawfully be deprived, and that as they, for the sake of mutual protection and social inter- course, have come together to form groups under various leaders, the nations springing therefrom also possess certain rights that must not be violated. A conqueror can never compel the people of a vanquished nation to obey the moral law. The principal task of those who struggle in the cause of' liberty and democracy is to teach the people. When they have come to a profession of the principles of Catholicity, then and only then will the seed have been sown from which the world will reap the harvest of enduring peace. I hope that is about what you wanted, he said, by way AN INTERVIEW PVITH ARCHBISHOP H.+lNN.fl 25 of letting me know that the interview was over. I assured him that it was, and having thanked him for his kindness, I departed. As I walked down Franklin Street the picture of Arch- bishop Hanna lingered in my memory. His friendly smile, his kind tone of voice, and his wonderful personality all came back to me, and no doubt they will do so for many days to come. I was most pleased with my interview, so pleased in fact, that I forgot about being angry with Father Cantwell for deserting me in the hallway. E Darrell W.

H3111 at Olinrlf' T.isn't really a'trick at all, said the den- f' qw t1st to his patient, the salesman, though -5-31 fi to tell the truth, I don't understand it ve s myself. It's a wonderful faculty a friend of mine has for knowing what's going on in a place, though he may not be person- ally present, or have any means of communcation. You can lay out here on the table an entire deck of cards, face up, and touch any one of the fifty-two. Then proceed to the telephone and call up 'my friend, and he'll tell you what card you have touched. Impossible, said the patient. I'd bet almost any- thing that it can't be done. It might, however, be worked if you did the telephoning, and had some combination of words, or code of your own to use in talking to your friend, from which he could easily say what card had been picked out. But if I phoned your friend,-why, I'd wager a twenty-spot he couldn't tell the card. I'll take you up on that, said the dentist. I-Ie produced a deck of cards and handed them to the salesman, who shuffled them carefully, and laid them out, face up, in four rows of thirteen cards each. The salesman, at the request of the dentist touched one, that happened to be the six of clubs. Now, said the dentist, step to the phone, call up Franklin 1337, ask for my friend, tell him that you're in my oihce and have touched a card, and ask him what card you touched. The salesman followed out directions, and after a -momentls pause, the Words came over the wire: That Was the six of clubs you picked out. The money was the dentist's. f ll F 5505 NVQ? X A3455 IT'.S' A CINCHU 29 The loser demanded that the dentist explain the trick, for trick he surely believed it to be, but the dentist re- plied that he was as much in the dark as the drummer, who thereupon left the oiiice. There's a catch somewhere, said the salesman to his friend, the lawyer, to whom he unfolded his sad experi- ence, and I'd give you another twenty-dollar bill to know just where. Well, said the lawyer, I wouldn't mind making a twenty-spot or two myself, and since you have already warned me, I think I can fathom his little game,-for surely it 'must be a game, as you say. Suppose I drop in to see that dentist friend of yours this afternoon? I have a tooth that needs a filling that might just as well be at- tended to now as any other time. Most likely he'll get talking cards with me,-I'll lead him on to it if he doesn't. I'll make a bet with him myself, keep a close eye on him, and most likely I'll see the game before it is really worked, and be able to catch him in the act. By the way, didn't you say that it was worth twenty to you to know how it was done P Yes, I certainly did, replied the salesman. Then if I meet you at Coffee Dan's at five and tell you how, is that twenty mine ? It is, exclaimed the salesman, provided, you do not persuade the dentist to tell you,-and as for that, I'll give my trust to your honor. All right, was the reply, and they parted. Five o'clock came and they met at one of Coffee Dan's bat- tered tables. Well, began the lawyer, you're stung and so am I. I went through practically the same experience as you did,-selected the ace of hearts, and I was promptly told by the dentist's friend what card I had touched. I kept a close watch on the dentist throughout the whole 30 THE IGNATIAN proceedings. While I was ringing up Franklin 1337 he paid no attention to me at all, but continued to read in a book he had taken up but a moment before I touched the card. It's certainly a mysterious affair from start to finish, and I'd lose anything to find out just how it's done. The two did not meet again for nearly a month, when they happened to run across each other on Market street one day, and stopped to have a little chat. - By the way, the lawyer remarked, do you recall how we two were fooled by that card game of your den- tist's a few weeks ago? That guy, who worked with him, must be a slicker, I'd very much like to visit the doctor and ask him to introduce me to the fellow. . I should say he was a slicker, and it's no use trying to get acquainted with him. We were both cleverly fooled. Lunch with me and forget about it. They went to a nearby cafe, and had just finished their Martini when 'the telephone bell on the bar behind them rang. Yes, this is Franklin 1337, they heard the bartender say. They looked at each other in dismay. That was the very number the dentist had used in his card game. D The bartender waited a minute. Yes, this is Mr. Baker talking to you now, he said. . A brief moment passed, and then, That card you touched was the jack of clubs. Yes, the jack. Goodbyj' and he hung up the receiver. Pardon me, said the salesman, as the bartender turned from the phone, but that's a queer conversationto have over a telephone. Here's the price of a. new hat for you, if you'll tell us the game. The bartender wavered a moment, and then taking the proffered bill, replied: It's the best yet. 1've a dentist friend on Fourth street.

The patient nine times out of ten bites, for he gets excited over it and offers to bet it can't be done. If he doesn't make the offer himself, my friend does, and it's very seldom that it is refused. The guy lays out the cards, touches one, and then rings me up, and I tell him what card's been picked out,-every time. We knock out a hundred or more some months, for the .Doc. has a pretty good practice,-mostly among sports and other fellows who think that they know a good thing when they see it. I tell you it's the best thing yet. 'A cinch' is no name for it. But, replied the salesman, I don't see it yet. How can you tell from here what card's been touched? It's a cinch, was the reply. I have a little book here, --you can see it hanging by the telephone, and if you'd been watching me, you'd have noticed that I glanced in it before telling him what the card was. The doctor has the same thing fastened in his memorandum. It's a list of fifty-two cards in the deck, and opposite the name of each card is the name of some person,--the same names in his list as in mine, in the same order. 'Suppose the gent touches the queen of hearts. Doc looks in the book, that's simple, for he has opened it a moment before-maybe to put down another engagement for the pa- tient, for all' he knows.

I answer the 'phone, look for Johnson in my list--the Queen of Hearts is opposite to it! 'You touched the Queen of Hearts,' I answer, and the money's ours. I Ouch! Well, I should say so.

U An Aniatnr Efruv UTSIDE the railroad station there were ' Q crowded groups of men and women, con- ' ii versing among themselves with a resigned ruff sorrow. Some of the women were sobbing, while from others arose an occasional hys- terical laugh, a characteristic of the strain under which they were laboring. This was one of the sad, yet long-looked-for days which were becoming more frequent in every city, town and village of Canada. It was one that broke mothers' hearts and aroused the inner feelings of men. For soon the train bearing the wounded would arrive. This sad carrier of the unfortunates had made frequent stops at Brookfield, and the patriotic community, along with every Canadian town, was receiving the remnants of its offering for a lasting peace and democracy. Along the sides of the tracks were lines of younger folks, waiting expectantly and perhaps more joyously, the arrival of their friends and pro- tectors. Among the groups were not a few who bore traces of previous service. Here and there were middle-aged men, cripples, and there was hardly a young man who was not either temporarily or permanently marked by insatiable Mars. However through all the sadness one could almost feel the presence of the courageous determination to uphold their country which has characterized the lighting of the Canadians throughout the war. They are a courageous race and they have shown ity they have suffered and they are still willing to suffer for their principles. This was the aspect of the gathering at the railroad station, awaiting the return, sad, though it was, of their beloved ones. The distant blast of a locomotive was heard echoing through the canyon. The whistle grew more distinct, and, as the eager mothers and cheering men crowded closer to YK Kj P .n g? , AN AVIATOR TRUE 35 the humming rails, around a bend puffed an engine-an old one to be sure, as the need of locomotives had brought all the wood-burners into active service, but all bedecked in Flags and banners, at least a pleasing shadow of an impending sorrow. As the train jerked to a hasty stop, dozens of khaki-clad men clambered forth from the cars as best their injured arms and legs would permit them, some only tem- porarily crippled, home on a furlough, others minus a leg or an arm or otherwise incapacitated by a permanent injury or loss which would keep them out of further active service. As the last of the wounded were leaving the train a call for assistance came from the last coach, and as a stretcher was rushed to the car's steps, the remains of a human being were placed upon it. It was the body of a young man about twenty-three years of age, although pain had marked furrows in his countenance which nearly counterbalanced the youthful mass of brown hair and smooth-shaven face. Both legs had been cut off above the knee, and by the haggard expression one could see that the young soldier's whole constitution had been weakened by his wounds. As the onlookers stood beside the stretcher a stifled cry was heard and a sobbing woman, with agonized face, threw herself upon the stretcher, repeating hysterically, O my poor boy! O my jack! For the first time the wounded man moved, he wiped a tear from his eye, kissed his mother and murmured, Don't cry, mother, I fought bravely and the good Lord has graciously spared my poor body for further service to my countryf' Two months later the railroad station was similarly crowded. More anxious mothers were awaiting the arrival of their wounded sons, and wives their wounded husbands. Again the arrival was awaited with hopeful anxiety. But the hope was only short-lived and as the train left its precious burden at the station, the worst was realized in many an aching mother's heart. Buoyed up by the hope of .again 36 THE I GNA T1 AN having their beloved ones in their midst, they looked forward to the arrival of the train with somewhat hopeful joy, but when the human wrecks had been unloaded and the truth was known, sorrow reigned supreme. Quickly the wounded were transported to their homes or to hospitals and as the main body of the crowd cleared away, small groups of soldiers gathered to chat and discuss the war. In one of these groups, we find our young friend, Jack Mclntyreg now somewhat stronger and healthier, able to get around with the aid of crutches, but still far from well. I tell you, there are a good many men crippled as badly as I who have commissions in the aviation corps. Say boys, with two wooden legs I would be as good as new. Me for the Hying life. I'm still good for a few more Germans. Gne of .lack's companions looked at him incredulously and replied. f'Say Jack, how do you figure the aviators' test with two cork legs? VVhy, jack, although I don't want to discourage you, you haven't a chance. That's all true, the would-be aviator answered, but experience under fire and mechanical knowledge count for a great deal. I know of a fellow in the Third Highlanders getting a commission in the fliers who had an artificial leg. Now I have my commission already, and if he can use one wooden leg to advantage I guess the same applies to two. Anyway I would give two more legs if I had them to get into the aviation game. I'll admit it's fascinating, replied another of the group, and everyone knows that you could handle a plane as well as anyone but you can't get by technicalities in the war zone. If it is necessary to stand on one foot for ten minutes as one of the tests, it is a cinch that every aviator will stand on one foot for ten minutes before he gets a machine, even if he's the Prince of Wales. I'll admit it is tough to be cooped up while the other boys are fighting, but I'm afraid it is hors de combat for Lieut. McIntyre for a long spell. AN 1-IVIATOR TRUE 37 Well, fellows, if I thought that, I would almost wish that one of those shells had laid me out, that is, if it wasn't for my mother. It's awfully hard on her, in fact, my loss troubles her more than it does me. Oh, I would give ten years of my life to be allowed to fly over the German trenches. Next to sinking U-boats, flying over the German lines is the best sport I can imagine. At that moment a soldier came running up to the station. Say fellows, did you see the notice up at the town hall? Next Sunday moming at 9:30 a special train is going through Brookfield to Montreal under command of Sir John Falls, the head of the British aviators. With him are over a thousand new aviators from western Canada, They are also sending on the 'same train one thousand American aeroplane motors from Detroit. Believe me, it's some train. The notice also said that while the train would pass through to Montreal, Sir john Falls would stop off and address the town on Monday morning after visiting the munition factory at North Brook- field. I tell you what, Brookfield is getting to be some pop- ular little town. , Jack's eyes shone with excitement for a moment, then he said in a tearful tone, Gee! but I wish I was on that train. Once again the whole town of Brookfield was gathered about the station. It was nine o'clock Sunday morning. On this occasion a different spirit manifested itself in the crowd. The sorrowful tenseness which had characterized their other tearful gathering was absent. There were no hysterical mothers nor anxious men. All the spirit of depression and resignation had disappeared. Now everyone was joyful. Enthusiasm reigned supreme. From the smallest boy to the eldest grandfather, everyone was on hand to give their countrymen a patriotic send-off. To be sure they waited expectantly, but it was the joyous expectation of sending the flower of the nation into the enemy's country: to conquer the Kaiser in the air. 3.3 . THE IGNA TIAN Perhaps everyone in the village was happily aroused by the coming event, except Jack Mclntyre. The very thought of aviators sent a pang of disappointment through his heart. He was downcast to say the least. The height of his ambition had been lost and in general life was a misery to him. When his friends had gone off to the station, he had decided to remain at home, but as the hour for the arrival approached he found himself struggling towards the station. At 9:15 he was seated behind a water tank on the far side of the trestle about two hundred yards from the station proper. A welcome whistle from the oncoming locomotive was heard in the distance. In its echo resounded the cheers of the waiting crowd. The precious burden was fast approach- ing. Up the valley the sound came. In a minute the train would swing into view, rattle over the trestle at the entrance of the freight yards and thunder up to the station. At this moment a figure on crutches swung forth from behind the water tank and rapidly but awkwardly made his way out on the trestle. When he reached the middle he stopped, stooped and picked up a black satchel. Encumbered with his crutches and burden he started to continue on his way across the trestle. Even then the train had come into view. It was now rumbling over the trestle. The crippled man was strug- gling under the weight of his weakened body. The race was a pitiful one, but the hurrying man, as if gaining a new lease of life, made a great effort and regained solid ground just as the train was nearing the middle of the trestle. The crowd at the station had watched this exciting incident, held spellbound under its influence. Just as they were about to cheer, the satchel flew open and a puff of smoke came forth. The young man attempted to hurl the satchel away, but with a deafening roar an explosion enveloped his body. The train rushed by and when the scene of the explosion again came into view there, a few yards from the track, was a AN AVIATOR TRUE 39 great hole and beside the crater of the excavation lay a crumpled human body. The following day, the church bells tolled the hour of nine. On the steps of the town hall a black coffin draped with the flags of the Allies, was laid. Around it were army officers, hats in hand and many with a tearful eye. About the lower steps and upon the lawn were gathered the citi- zens of the village, there to pay their last respects to their noble son. There was not a sound when the bells stopped their plaintive tolling. An officer adorned with the gold braid of a general, stepped forward and with solemn precision placed upon the casket a Victoria Cross he had unpinned from his own uniform. Then turning he addressed the assembled people: Citizens of Brookfield, as Commander in Chief of the British aviation forces, I take it upon myself to say the few last words at the funeral of Lieut. John McIntyre. As a man I wish to do my little bit in appreciation of the great service he has done our country. In no instance has his bravery been excelled, in but few has it been equaled. When that bomb was placed upon the trestle by one of our country's enemies it spelt disaster for our year's aviation activities. My dear people, it is not in my power to attempt to praise our hero. I have been told that he wished to be- come an aviator so that he might be able to again serve his country. God has granted his wish. Yesterday he did a greater service to peace and democracy than he could ever possibly do as an aviator. He saved the lives of hundreds, and he saved hundreds of aeroplane motors, too. As a token of honor I have decorated Lieut. McIntyre with the Victoria Cross, temporarily of course, but when his case is brought before the King a real decoration will be conferred. And now, dear friends, I shall close-shall close with the hope that the memory of the sacrifice made by this young man may not only be cherished among you, but may also be an 40 THE IGNA TIAN added incentive to every one of us, to every one with a spark of patriotism and love of right within his breast, to make still greater sacrifices for the noble cause for which the allied nations are fighting.

BODEN During the past half century a great deal has been written in praise of our democracy, and of the liberty and freedom it grants the people. Articles by the UNION hundreds have appeared, in which it was SPELLS stated that were an occasion to arise the citi- VICTORY zens would show the world in an unmistak- able manner that they valued their extra- ordinary freedom, and would immediately rally to the de- fense of the country and its rights. Some months ago this much-written-of occasion arose, and to-day the world is waiting on tip toe to see what the people of the United States will do. 46 THE IGNATIAN Now what are we going to do? Let each one consider this question. The times demand immediate action. Yes- terday was a day of deliberation, to-day is a day of deeds. We are engaged in the greatest struggle the world has ever witnessed, and if we are to come out victorious We must do something, and do it quickly. We are fighting for no other country, and no country will fight our battles for us. Situated as we are so far from the scene of the con- flict, we are likely to delay in performing our part, and with delay will come defeat. It is not expected that all of us should shoulder a rifle, but it is expected that every citizen of the United 'States should support the Government. In union there is strength was never more true than to-day. We have only to turn our gaze upon Russia to realize the truth of this old saying. There we see a country whose man power surpasses that of any other nation unable to accomplish anything owing to a lack of unitedness. Let it not be said after the war that the United States was unable to strike an effective blow because its citizens did not unite with the idea of accomplishing one fixed purpose. We must also remember that democracy is on trial. Upon the actions of our citizens will depend the decision. We who are endeavoring to win the world over to de- mocracy must be careful to have conditions in our own country such that no one can justly find fault with our form of government. Therefore let us all get behind President Wilson, with a determination to do what he asks. Let us show the world that the United States are really united, that they are supporting the Government to a man. When we have done this our part will be finished. The rest we must leave to Him who guides the destinies of men. And no matter what our lot shall be, one thing is certain, it will be glorious. EDITORIAL 47 At a time such as the present when the nations are engaged in a stupendous coniiict, and the newspapers are daily reporting deeds of extraordinary hero- OUR ism on the battlefield, we are liable to pay BRAVE but little attention to acts of bravery at FIREMEN home. It is most important that we should not be guilty of such negligence, for acts of that kind, performed, as they are, without the glamour of the conHict, are most praiseworthy. Several weeks ago three members of the San Francisco Fire Department, First Assistant Chief Stephen D. Russell, Hoseman Joseph Allen and Truckman Timothy Collins lost their lives in the discharge of their duty. To give up his life is the greatest sacrifice that man can make for his fellow man. And this was the sacrifice made by these three silent heroes for the citizens of San Francisco. It is only just, then, that we San Franciscans should pay to such heroes the respect and honor that is certainly their due. They have been honored in some way, in fact in a magnificent way by a great public funeral-an im- pressive Catholic funeral,-for all were Catholics. But if we go no farther we are not honoring those gallant men as they should be honored, as they would like to be honored. Let us hold their names in benedictiong yes, but at the same time let us take every possible precaution that no such accident may occur in the future. For if those dead men could speak we may be sure that they would ask for nothing more earnestly than that their helmeted comrades might not be forced to enter buildings that ex- pose them to a similar horrible fate. Our firemen are the soul of unselfishness, as witnessed in this very accident of which we speak, when one badly burned and writhing hero, little knowing that the soul of the black, charred silent form that lay across his legs had already passed to his Maker, most piteously begged the 43 THE IGNATIAN rescuing party that his comrade, not he, should be first carried to safety. Such is the stuff of which our brave firemen are made. Let us not impose upon their gener- osit'y, but let us honor them as they deserve, let us value them at their true worth and at the same time do every- thing in our power to prevent a repetition of the awful tragedy of October the fifth. We note with approval that a number of Catholic periodicals are supporting a movement to have the French priests removed from the trenches. Ac- PRIESTS cording to the latest reports, over 20,000 of IN THE them are now serving in the army, not as TRENCHES chaplains, but as ordinary soldiers. Do not think that these men have voluntarily chosen to be mere soldiers. The French government has commanded them to take up arms. If they refuse they are branded as deserters, and treated as such. An infidel gov- ernment ignores their priesthood and bids them shed blood. How different is the war-time priest of to-day from the one of yesterday. In the past he has been a man of mercy, who, crucifix in hand, brought the consolations of religion to the wounded and the dying. How many times has he not been pictured as such by brush and pen? But now no more! A gun has been thrust into his hands, and he has been told that unless he joins in the slaughter he will be treated as a deserter. From the gentle, loving man of the cassock he has been transformed into the uniformed slayer of the foe. It is imperative that the Catholics of this country should take some steps to bring about the removal of the French priests from the trenches. The destruction of life is not the work of these self-sacrificing men. Theirs is the task of preserving the body and the soul for God. It they EDITORIAL 49 remain in the trenches a large number of them will un- doubtedly be slain, and the work of the Church in France will consequently be sadly crippled. Therefore let us petition our Government to intimate to the French government that this country would ap- preciate the removal of the priests from the trenches. The requests of a few will naturally prove useless, and on this account it behooves all of us to support this movement. Certainly a wonderful reward will crown our efforts if the Cross replaces the rifle and saber in the French priest's hands. Darrell W. Daly. CD A niueraitg nina Alf the conventional method of introducing these columns were observed, we should undoubtedly indulge in the time-honored comment on the refreshing joys of the late vacation and the depressing contrast of a return to studies. But the truth is that the proverbial effects of vacation have, by this late date, fled the souls of our future engineers and lawyers, and they have assumed a becoming scholastic gravity and lapsed resignedly into the directing sway of professorial authority. During the favorable tran- quillity of the past few months, interrupted only by fre- quent demonstrations of athletic pep and by the mythical yet exciting existence of a mysterious Glee Club, the various associations and societies of the University were organized for their work during the present semester. It may be both appropriate and productive of a deeper ap- preciation of their significance to remark here that the activities of these societies are of such timely interest that they can not be overlooked, and their real importance so evident that it can hardly be overestimated. The Uni- versity is proud of these little institutions and Ignatian students may justly boast of their achievements. VVith the treasured traditions of past years and with their re- spective aims and activities duly unfolded before them, these organizations by their co-operation with the regular Jesuit curriculum have proved invaluable as practical and attractive influences for the moral and intellectual develop- ment of youth and as outlets for the energetic and virile activity of our students. if v A 'vlvgzgp' ' l UNIVERSITY NOTES 51 The Sodality of the Immaculate Conception affords us a noble and impressive instance of the ideals and the work I of these societies. What could be more SODALITY beautiful, more potent, or more effective as a means for instilling high ideals and for regulating the conduct of Catholic gentlemen than an ardent love and a chivalrous zeal for the honor of the Blessed Mother of God? And this exactly is the one noble purpose of the Sodality. Reverend Father Hayes, S. I., who is welcomed back to St. Ignatius by his many friends, has been appointed to the directorate of the So- dality and as a result of his progressive plans and con- templated reforms, the weekly meetings are now held at 8:30, before the opening of classes. The Senior Philhistorian Debating Society held its first meeting of the current semester on August 29 and made its first items of business the admission of S. P. D. S. new members and the election of the fol- lowing oliicers: President: The Rev. Joseph A. Morton, S. 1.3 Vice-President, Lawrence J. Daveyg Treasurer, Francis McGrathg Secretary, Mark A. De- vineg Sergeant-at-Arms, Victor Clarke. With a shrewd appreciation of the aversion of the Philhistorians to any- thing like despotism and after a due consideration of the present annoying and embarrassing predicament of autocratic Wilhelm, the Well-known fight promoter, our genial President has decided that he can keep the tempera- ture down by a mild and democratic use of his presidential prerogative. As a result of Father Morton's wise and generous policy it is much easier for the Philhistorians to do their bit by weekly deciding momentous issues for their country gratis and by patriotically solving its problems relative to the I. W. W., war profits, peace terms, etc. The questions discussed by the body are set 52 A THE IGNA TIAN forth with Philhistorian wit and spiritg are argued with the studied clear conception and the dignified yet forceful eloquence of enthusiastic, able, and ambitious members. According to advices from President Aloysious M. Torre, S. I., the junior Philhistorians are no less re- sponsive to the present-day demand for men, J. P. D. S. equipped by versatility of thought, keenness of wit and vigor of expression, to apply sound principles to our great civic and social problems. At their first meeting, the Juniors heard the applications of candidates and elected the following officers: President, Mr. A. M. Torre, S. J.g Vice-President, Wilbur Cant- wellg Recording Secretary, Norbert Feelyg Corresponding Secretary, Norbert Francisg Treasurer, Leo Boyleg Re- porter, Alex. Youngg' Sergeant-at-Arms, Gerald Sullivan. A high standard was set in the .first debate of the year, in which our relations with japan was brilliantly discussed by Mr. Gerald Sullivan, Billy Sunday's most violent rival, when it comes to gymnastic eloquence. Mr. Sulli- van did not win all the glory, however, for Messrs. Boden, Gallagher and Cantwell did a little sparkling on their own account. I Vlfith that same zeal, constancy and dignity which have characterized its activities for many years, the Saint John Berchmans Sanctuary Society carries on SANCTUARY its noble and unpretentious work of ministration at the altar of God. The following ofiicers were elected at the first meeting held' this year: Prefect, Alfred Abrahamsong Assistant Pre- fects, Vincent McGuire and Frank Kingg Secretary, Nor- bert VV. Feelyg Treasurer, Wm. T. Sweigertg Censor, Edmund Slater. The present efficiency of the society's UNIVERSITY NOTES 53 organization and its edifying and solemn discipline at the altar are the results of two years of ceaseless and as- siduous effort on the part of the Director, Mr. Austin Howard, SS. I. As he is at present engaged in re-compiling the roster of Sanctuary members of past years, Mr. Howard wishes to make a request through these columns that all readers, who have at any time belonged to the Society, communicate that information with name and address to him at the University. Confronted by grave issues and important choices of policy the Associated Students, assembled for their first meeting, were called to order by Rev- ASSOCIATED erend Father Foote, S. J., President of STUDENTS the University. Organization being the primary requisite for action, the house conferred the honor of the Presidential office on Ivan N. Maroevich, making a choice as Wise as it was universally acclaimed. Ishi, as he is fondly called by his admirers, has really been the Old Faithful of athletics for the past three yearsg he has been an energetic and popular leader in college activities and the staunch and genial friend of his fellow students. In fact it may be said that Ishi is half the Senior Class. The following officers complete the administration: Vice-President, Wm. D. O'Connellg Secretary, Darrell W. Daly g Treasurer, Melvin I. Croning 'Sergeant-at-Arms, Sigmund janasg Pub- licity Manager, Wm. T. Sweigertg Yell Leader, Eddie Fitzpatrick. When the members after prolonged debate had taken the radical though inevitable step of reversion to the American style of football, it was immediately perceived that the co-operation of the Alumni Association was nec- essary to insure the success of the proposed football pro- gram. With a promptness, that highly bespeaks the 54 THE IGNATIAN attitude of the Alumni toward the Student Body, Presi- dent Murphy invited a committee of the students to at- tend an executive committee luncheon at the St. Francis Hotel. Mr. Maroevich and Mr. Daly, members of this delegation, acquainted the Alumni members with the foot- ball situation. The quondam students at once pledged their support and manifested their interest and good will, with a financial liberality, deeply appreciated and herein acknowledged by the students. The outstanding feature of the iirst meeting of the High School Student Body was the heretofore unpre- cedented accomplishment by the lower ASSOCIATED classmen of an overthrow of the political STUDENTS predominance of the Senior Class. CH. SQ Whether this remarkable achievement was the effect of factional dissension and a house divided attitude on the part of the Seniors or whether it was the result of a political coup d'etat on the part of the lower classmen is a matter of conjecture. The fact nevertheless remains that.Leo Boyle, a popular and deserving candidate for President, was the only of- ficer installed by the class of '18, The other officers are as follows: Vice-President, Eugene O'Mearag Secretary, Frank I. Ryang Treasurer, Elton Kane. To the inexorable call of duty may be attributed the departure from among us of live of our most admired and beloved superiors and former com- DEPARTURE panions. Mr. Victor White and Mr. F. OF FORMER R. Ralph are now in St. Louis com- PROFESSORS pleting their theological studies for or- dination. The winning personality of MY- White and the genial affability of Mr. Ralph willbe UNIVERSITY NOTES 55 long remembered by the host of friends they have left at St. Ignatius. Mr. Thos. Lannon, S. J., pleasant, kind and jovial, has been transferred to Santa Clara where he is teaching at the present time. It was with reluctance that we said good-by to Father Wm. Keaney, whose thoroughly cultured mind and friendly, congenial and firm character deeply impressed those with whom he came in contact. Father Keaney is at present assistant pastor at Lewiston, Idaho., And now what words of regret can express our sentiments at the removal of our best friend to St. Vincent's College. What mere words can faithfully express the depth of reverence, the kindliness of disposition, the sympathy of heart, the nobility of character, the sanctity of soul which we learned to associate with our spiritual father and confidant, Father John C. Grizez. The highest tribute in the power of the boys of Saint Ignatius to bestow may be expressed in a few heartfelt words Father Grizez -is what the saintly Father Joy once was. Fate, the harvester, has decided to transplant our crop of future lawyers from their hothouse quarters in the Grant Building to the fertile intellectual WELCOME soil of our Hayes Street Institution. Wel- TO LAW come! We firmly believe that you will find SCHOOL the chilly solemnity of our corridors and the antiquity of our venerable halls more congenial to the nocturnal absorption of Blackstone than the mercenary turmoil of the downtown section. On Wednesday, October 17, the students of the Uni- versity and the upper High School classes assembled at Holy Mass to begin their annual three days' RETREAT retreat under the direction and instruction of Rev. Father William Boland, S. J., of Santa Clara. Rev. Father J. Hickey of our own faculty conducted the exercises for the lower classmen. 56 THE IGNATIAN X. If fervid eloquence, intense enthusiasm and manifest sincerity can stir the spirits of Catholic boys, then the Reverend Fathers may rest assured that those who listened to their words will reap a hundredfold the fruits of those seeds of instruction, which they labored so zealously to sow. Their deep and appreciative insight into the youth- ful mind and heart, their vivid portrayal of present-day religious thought, demanding of a Catholic young man all the resolution of will and the rationality of intellect, their lucid and convincing presentation of argument and noble and impressive exhortations and appeals completely over- came that natural and innate aversion of youth to restraint and quietg filled them with an ardent devotion and a firm resolution to cling to those old fundamental princi- ples in the observance of which and in the living of which lies the way to eternal life. William T. Sweigert. EEUU H1125 It has been said of the Seniors lately that they walk about with their noses tilted slightly higher than was l formerly their custom, deigning not to gaze SENIOR upon the lower classmen. The accusation is CLASS correct. The Seniors are a wee bit proud, proud of the aviators, corporals and privates that have left the class to join Uncle Sammy's Kaiser- hunters. Dutch Van der Zee, the fair-haired Hollander, is now an acting corporal at Camp Lewis and if we can judge from his last letter to the boys, we take it that 'Sherman was all wrong. Pep Flynn, when last heard from, was following his usual custom of going up in the air. He is with the Aviation Corps, somewhere in the South. Jimmy Wall, who is reported to have said two words the other day, without grinning, was exempted from the draft, as was Vin Compagno, but both boys will do their bit in some other way. Joe O'Mal1'ey was also exempted, but he has promised to pick a small-sized German for himself and wage a war of his own. Oh, well, it's in the veins of his race. And we must not forget Ed. Holl, our prosperous heel-millinerf, He was neither drafted nor exempted, but he says he would rather do both than face the faculty exams, at the end of the term. But in spite of the ravages the war has made on the personnel of the class, there are still enough of us left to make up a set of officers and organize into an executive body. An enthusiastic meeting was held for the purpose of electing officers. jazz was the predominant feature, with pep and ginger a tie for second place! , Tom McGrath, who will probably be gone by the time 58 THE IGNA TIAN this goes to press, was elected President. Charles Wing was elected Secretary,-and here's a secret,-Wing is the boy that showed Douglas Fairbanks how to smile. The other successful candidates were Hurst, Treasurer, Evans, Sergeant-at-Arms. Speaking of war, jim Morris recently made an attack on the first line trenches of the California State Bar. VVe have not heard Whether the enemy in ermine repulsed him with a counter-attack, but we hope he comes out of this battle with as few lifnbs lost as he did from the Spanish-Amerie can war. H. Hall Evans. Premiers au Fen! Seems to be the Juniors' slogan, so rapidly are they abandoning their books for the saber and hand-grenade. Paul Tissot, of football JUNIOR fame, started the movement by entering the CLASS first training camp at the Presidio. Now he is Lieutenant Tissot putting Private Thynnes through his paces at Camp Lewis. Ernie Barnes and Fred McDonald enlisted shortly after commencement, the one with the Grizzlies, the other with the Coast Ar- tillerymen at Fort Scott. The rest of the boys are scat- tered, Captain Harvey being in the Quartermaster's De- partment, Chick Wiseman in the Aviation Corps, Jack McFeely at the Army Base Hospital and Vin Meherin in the Naval Reserve. We feel proud of our record and are sure that Kaiser Bill will soon note the effect of having such valiant foes opposing him. But our fighters are found on other fields than those of battle. Larrecou, the French dragoon, in the Davis game showed the gridiron heroes how to charge to victory. His was the honor of making St. Ignatius' first score in the American game. Congratulations Larry! CEditor's note.-The juniors press correspondent has LAW NOTES 59 been too modest. Terry, alias Camouflage, was very much in evidence, plugging the line for gains almost at will. To those who know, to say that Camouflage is as good at American as at Rugby is quite sufficient praise.j Terence Boyle. It was gratifying to note the large Sophomore enrol- ment at the Fall term. We regret the absence of several Worthy members, who were with use in SOPHOMORE Freshman year, all of whom, by their CLASS talents and application won advance- - ment one rung higher in their collegiate caneer. Most of them were forced to abandon their studies, by circumstances entirely beyond their own con- trolQ It is to be hoped that ere long a change may occur, so as to permit the-m to be listed again on the roster of HS. I. U. and continue onward until they have won their LL. B. Despite the full swing of class work, the boys have had time to discuss the doings of some of those who have returned. Colonel Healy, we ind, has accepted a posi- tion at the United States Mint under Uncle Sam in order to make money before any other Soph, and incidentally to beat the distinguished banker, Joe Giannini, at the game of first handling the coin of the realm. Traverso is now a Yeoman and is doing daily service in our illustrious Navy. His voluntary enlistment at the nation's call, has our heartiest commendlation. What an inspiration it is to see him appear at class in his naval uniform. Leni- han has also answered the nation's call and is now with the Aviation Corps at San Diego. In football the 'Sophs Will be more than represented. on the football arena. About half the team will be made up of second-year men. The notables are Captain Maroe- 60 THE IGNATIAN vich, Ray Williamson frepresenting the populous town of Tiburonj, Tub O'Neil, Bill Thorpe, Ed Conlan. The Sophs are taking hold of their new course in an energetic manner. But we are led a merry pace by our esteemed Professor, Mr. Stanislaus Riley. With his citations ad libitum, infinitum, et cetera, one feels the lack of an elbow library. A thought occurs: Col. Healy, our greatest money maker, could perform a-most beneficent act by donating to each member of the class a working law library, how our burdens would be lessened and how smoothly our ship would sail under the command of Pilot Riley during his discourses upon Sales Within a week or so the class meeting will be held, an organization perfected, and officers will be elected for the ensuing semester. Edward Illolkenbuhr. For over a month we have been delving into the musty tomes of Blackstone. Contracts, Domestic Relations have opened their portals to our restless FRESHMAN minds keen in the search for the Pierian LAW Spring. Wie have drunk deep. We can and do discuss cases like real lawyers. We agree and disagree with the courts. Always, when we dispute, the judges are wrong, never we. The class of '21 started briskly and with a large num- ber, but even now, in so short a time our numbers are sadly depleted. The war is again partly to blame. The spell of the army, the glamour of the olive drab, and the honor of a commission, actual or prospective, have spirited away several. Other causes seem to have taken more before they had fairly begun. Each succeeding week there are new vacant chairs in the corner room. Yet the sub- LAW NOTES 61 stantial remainder are right on the job, determined to succeed. The class as a whole is divided into several parts, policemen, married men, and prospective benedicks. The policemen are singularly unaggressive, while the married men present a remarkably subdued and resigned air. The benedicks to be CPD, verify the poet's remark, where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly to be wise. judging from the number of blue-coats in our class, the Police Department evidently realizes the benefit of a Jesuit education. The married men also see its benefits. The father is in Freshman Law and the son in the S. I. Eighth Grammar Grade. May the father be worthy of the son! Ordinary students have no such example. If father did attend the Institution, those days are half- forgotten. It may be well to note that the Freshmen hold them- selves part of the old S. I. Big, bright, shiny brass fobs have already appeared. Many were seen at the football games. Some have joined the Student Body. Let's all join the crush. Robert K. White. Iumni nina The annual banquet of the Alumni Association was held in the Italian Room of the St. Francis Hotel on Thurs- . day evening, 'September the thirteenth. ALUMNI This early'date was selected that those ASSOCIATION alumni who had been called to the colors might have the opportunity of meeting all their old friends before entraining for active service. Truly it was a gala evening, and from the time that the genial Mr. Joseph Murphy, President of the Asso- ciation and toastmaster of the evening, led the assault on the Toke Points, until with Hoover in full retreat, he called upon Dr. Giannini to tire the final round, there was scarcely a quiet moment. William P. Golden, LL. B., A. B., '01, delivered a serio-comic poem, The College Conscriptf' that evoked great applause. Raymond T. Feely, LL. B., A. B., '14, struck the solemn note of the evening in his tribute to the Rev. Denis Mahony, S. J., for many years Moderator of the Association, Who, on account of ill-health, was unable to be present. That Ray was not speaking for himself alone but for every one of the Alumni was easily seen by the applause that met each mention of the Reverend Father's name. The President of the University, Rev. Patrick J. Foote, S. J., in his Reminiscences of the Class of '81, while giving each of his fellow-classmen his clue meed of praise, scrupled not to mention a few details that would have silenced an-y Hlaudator ternporis actin who chanced to be present. The Hon. Jeremiah F. Sullivan, D., LL. B., A. M., recently elected President of the San Francisco Bar Asso- ciation, is showing that he is the right man in the '70 right place. With all his accustomed energy Jerry has set on foot a movement which he hopes will lead ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 63 to a complete reorganization of the society, and as he ordinarily does not start a thing that he cannot finish, all his friends are sure that success will crown his efforts. In the name of the Faculty and Alumni, THE IGNATIAN offers its profound sympathy to the sisters of the late John T. Fogarty, A. B., member of the San Fran- '75 cisco Fire Commission and President of the Alumni Association for several terms. Although, as an- nounced in the February IGNATIAN, Mr. Fogarty had been in poor health for some time past, no one thought that his end was so near. He was stricken while at his office on the afternoon of October the fifth and died the follow- ing morning at St. Mary's Hospital. The funeral mass, at which were present Mayor James Rolph, the Board of Supervisors, the Fire Commission and practically every civic official, was said at Sacred Heart Church by his in- timate friend, the Rev. Joseph McQuaide, Chaplain U. S. A. By Mr. Fogarty's death St. Ignatius loses a true and de- voted son, an alumnus who was ever ready to sacrifice himself in the interests of his Alma Mater. No Alumni gathering was complete without john T. Fogarty and his presence will be sorely missed by all the Old Boys of S. I. U. In these days of war when the daily papers are full of plots and conspiracies, of traitorous speeches and silent protests, it is with pride that we scan the '81 Congressional Records and find that the Hon. James D. Phelan, Ph. D., I. D., A. B., Senior Senator from California, is showing himself a patriot from the ground up. Not that we ever doubted how jimmy would act, for we knew that no product of the Mission would show the white feather at any time Cmuch less when the coun- try's honor and safety were at stakej, but, rather, We 64 THE IGNATIAN Ignatians take a sort of paternal pride in our Senator, and whenever we read anything that redounds to his credit, and we do it often, we feel like sticking our thumbs in our vests and assuming a sort of I-told-you-so atti- tude. THE IGNATIAN is proud of the Hon. James D. Phelan's work in the last Congress and wishes him cour- age and strength for the arduous days that await our legislators. THE IGNATIAN bears a two-fold message to Brigadier- General Chas. H. McKinstry, U. S. A., A. B., and to his brother Clarence J. McKinstry, LL. B., A. B.g one '84 of deep sympathy on the recent death of their be- loved mother, the other of heartiest congratulations .on the promotion of Charlie to the command of a divi- sion of engineers now somewhere in France. At the outbreak of hostilities General, then Lieut.-Colonel, Mc- Kinstry was in command of the fortifications protecting New York City, but the need of engineers at the front was so urgent that he was given the duty of recruiting such a regiment. This he did successfully, was promoted to the rank of Brigadier-General and sent across the At- lantic. Those who chanced to attend the Rialto a week or two ago saw the excellent Hearst-Pathe pictures of the General as he and his regiment passed in review before the King and Queen of England. By this time, no doubt, Charlie and his men are playing no mean part in the great offensive started by General Haig. Smash hard, Charlie, Berlin is your goal. A word of congratulation to one of St. Ignatius' most loyal Alumni, the Rev. Joseph M. Gleason, Pastor of St. Thomas' Church, Palo Alto, on the occasion of the '87 twenty-fifth anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood. The jubilee celebration took place at St. Thomas' Church, Palo Alto. The presence of His ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 65 Grace, Archbishop Hanna, and his beautiful sermon on the Dignity of the Christian Priesthood, the attendance of over fifty priests, of the Protestant clergy of Palo Alto, of many members of the faculty of Leland Stanford junior University, and numerous Army and Navy ofhcers, be- sides the immense congregation of Palo Altans, testified to the great honor and esteem which are felt 'for Father Gleason both inside and outside the Church. That the Reverend Father may be spared for many years more of faithful labor in the Lord's vineyard is the most ardent wish of the Faculty, Alumni and Students of St. Ignatius. Dr. john I. Gallagher, B. S.. has been appointed Cor- oner of 'San Francisco, Vice Dr. Leland, who has '89 been called to service with Uncle Sam's fighting forces. To the members of the family of the late Francis P. Haynes, LL. B., B. S., THE IGNATIAN offers its deep and heartfelt sympathy. Mr. Haynes had for some time '92 occupied the important post of business manager of The Monitor. He will be remembered by many of the old boys as superintendent of the gymnasium when the College Was located on Van Ness Avenue. One of our busiest Alumni at the present time is Luke J. Flynn, A. B., who is superintending the remodeling of the Flood Building, for so long the offices of the '95 Southern Pacific. Luke is still as deeply interested in old S. I. as ever, and managed to get away for the last gathering at the St. Francis. 66 THE IGNATIAN Hark ye! all ye Alumni-hark ye! We take this op- portunity of announcing with great pleasure the arrival of the newest member of the clan O'Day. Yes, Ed. '00 of that history-making class of '00 is a happy and proud parent, and THE IGNATIAN heartily congratu- lates him. On Thursday evening, June 28th, 1917, the classmates and quondam pupils of Father Zacheus J. Maher, A. B., S. J., tendered him a banquet at the Hotel Whitcomb in honor of his ordination and homecoming. Between twenty-five and thirty of the old boys were assembled for the festive occasion to recall fond memories and to greet and congratulate the best of fellows Cvintage of '00, '01, etc.j and the Hdandiest of prof's Cvintage of '13, '14, etc.j. Ed. O'Day, poet, author, critic, the man who winds the ferry clock, oils the hinges of the Golden Gate, etc., enacted the role of toastmaster, and in conjunction with Qtans. Riley, Harold Cauliield, Mike Buckley, Joe Mur- phy and others, brought to light many a hidden skele- ton and many of Zach's escapades ante S. J. The Rev- erend Fathers Foote and M. Maher, of the Society of jesus, and Fr. Stark of the Paulist Order, each delivered short addresses, but the climax of the evening's oratorical flights was Fr. Z. Maher's pithy speech. He went from out our midst a scientist, a true friend to many-now, on his return to the scene of many fond recollections, we find him in possession of another merited title-that of orator. Following the banquet, Ed. O,Day initiated Fr. Foote et al. into the mysteries of the Temple of Terpsichore, the lVhitcomb's Arabesque Room. As a postscript, or rather a postmortem, Fr. Zach, received orders to proceed to St. Vincent's College, Los ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 67 Angeles, there to assume the offices of Vice-President and Prefect of Studies. Stanislaus A. Riley, J. D., A. M., has recently re- turned from Washington, where he was in attendance at the convention of Catholic Societies. Stan was ,sent to the Capitol City gathering as delegate from the Pacific jurisdiction of the Young Men's Institute. Embellishing the door of Room 633 of the Merchants' Exchange Building is a new sign that reads Buckley- Murphy Agency. To the uninitiated that means almost anything, but to those who know it means that Michael F. Buckley, A. B., and Joseph A. Murphy, A. B., Mike and Joe, old college pals, have entered into a partner- ship in the ship brokerage business. That they will suc- ceed goes without saying, but here's wishi-ng them well, anyway! Word has been received from Washington to the effect that George A. Connolly, J. D., A. 'M., professor in our College of Law, has been appointed by Presi- '02 dent Wilson as one of two members of the Panama joint Land Commission. We need not assure the many friends of Mr. Connolly that the Chief Executive has been most happy in his choice, and we offer to our distinguished Alumnus our hcartiest congratulations. Up from the South comes the pleasant news that Robert H. Ryan, J. D., A. B., was married in Los An- geles to Miss Alice Whelan, sister of john L. Whe- 704 lan, A. B., '05, and the Revs. Edward and Albert VVhelan, S. I. Congratulations and success, Bob. and may you and your bride find life happy and full of prosperity! 68 THE IGNATIAN Congratulations to John L. Whelan, A. B., are now in order upon the arrival of a little Jane at the Whelan household. Dr. john Gallwey, Ph. D., has been appointed chair- man of the First District Appellate Board of San Fran- cisco. It is needless for us to assert that this selec- '05 tion is a happy one and that Doctor John, a model of fair play and justice, will deal in like manner with all appeals for exemption. Robert D. Rossi, A. B., B. S., Vice-President of the Italian-Swiss Colony Wine Association, has left for Amer- ican Lake, where he is to see service in the field '08 artillery. Rumor has it that Bob, who is a linguist of no mean ability, is shortly to be transferred to an office in the interpreters' corps. Edwin I. O'Hara, A. B., has been promoted from the rank of Lieutenant to Captain of the Coast Artillery Corps in the regular army. Ed has been acting as '09 Payrnaster at Fort VVinfielcl Scott, but expects in a few days to get back to the big guns once more. Francis P. Buckley, A. M., LL. B., erstwhile professor in the high school and debater extraordinary, is a mem- ber of the U. S. T. C. now in session at the Presidio. '11 Frank was also a member of the first camp and, colloquially speaking, was going like a house on fire, when old John W. Hardluck, in the guise of scarlet fever, tripped him up and so, for the time being, drove soldier- ing out of his system. But, that Frank was making good is evinced from the fact that he was one of the four recommended for admission to the second camp. ALUMNI ASSOCIATION 69 The many friends of Robert H. Heaney, M. D., A. B., will be pleased to hear that he has graduated from the University of California, a full-fledged medico. Soon '12 after his graduation Rob was offered an interneship at St. Mary's Hospital. This he gladly accepted and, as some of our football worthies can testify, is no mean practitioner. Dr. Rafael G. Dufficy, A. M., is the recipient of nu- merous congratulations occasioned by his appointment as First Lieutenant in the Medical Corps. Doc's interest in Alma Mater has always been an ardent one, and at the latest alumni banquet he cut quite a figure in his bright new uniform. The Rev. Carl A. Dransiield, A. B., was ordained to the holy priesthood last June in St. Mary's Cathedral and sang his first Solemn Mass at St. Boniface's church. '13' Since his appointment as assistant pastor of St. Francis d'Assisi's parish he has paid us several visits, manifesting his same old interest in S. I.'s doings. A reunion of the class of 1914 was held at Jules' Cafe on the evening of August 1, 1917. This gathering par- takes of the nature of an annual affair and its par- '14 ticipants are the one-time members of that class, graduates or otherwise. Among the former teachers present were Fathers Foote, Mahony and Timothy Mur- phy, while those of the old guard who showed up were Percy McCann, James Sullivan, Wm. Hunt, Leo Rotanzi, Thos. Rickey, Chas. Lafferty, Jas. Laugh, Ed. Queen, Irving O'Shea, Gerald Kenny, Jas. Harrington, Frank Lessman, Thos. Hall, Walter Sullivan and Raymond Feely. Vin Brown, Joe Giannini, Hughey Smith and all other surviving members of the 1914 baseball team, 70 THE IGNATIAN attention! The latest dispatch from Camp Lewis reads: His application to the drill regulations and his ability to grasp the details of the work incident to handling a company is responsible for the promotion of I. J. Har- rington, formerly a well-known 'San Francisco attorney, to the rank of Sergeant in A Company. Sergeant Har- rington, who also plays' on the regimental baseball team as catcher, is the first sergeant of the company, com- manded by Captain Allan Watt of Los Angeles. Con- gratulations, jimmy ! One more detail and our joy would be complete. What about the batting eye and the old arm? . Of the class of '17, three are studying medicine, Ed. Morrissey and Stan Burns at California, and Carolan Cronin at St. Louis. Terry Boyle, when not '17 ploughing through the enemy's line with a pigskin under his arm, is setting the pace for Louie Borello in scenting out the finer points in Corporations, Equity, etc., in the Law School. Rob White is back at S. I. for P. G. work, with a little law and private tutoring on the side. Fred McDonald, U. S. A., is out behind the big guns at Fort Scott, while Chick Wiseman, our re- liable outfielder for several seasons past, left recently to join the aviators at San Diego. 52'1'lQ1S-Efvig, ,- ,fy ws. -1, , 'L .,---ff 5' j'1--'Q'Lf :a'QC-v1f f 4 ' rf ' 1: f 4'zp,:A, 5 A 1 ','7fv-HQMTQ 1, . , W A '., 'a 'f v 1 ,. .,f ,, -191. 2 'g f S 1 ., .

For well nigh eight years now we have put Rugby teams on the field, and while all were not star aggregations still they made a rather favorable showing. For the last two years, however, unrest in college athletics on the Coast caused a general upheaval, many of the larger colleges abandoning Rugby for the American game. In the spring the advisability of St. Ignatius' falling into line was fully discussed, and at the first meeting of the Associated Students this semester a vote was taken and American came into its own at S. I. U. I Manager Darrell W. Daley at once scoured the city for a coach and was fortunate indeed in obtaining the services of Mr. Harry Flatley, for many years one of the most ardent supporters of the old game in this vicinity. That he is the right man for the place goes without saying, for the team's splendid showing up to date is enough of a recommendation for any coach. Of the veterans of last year's Rugby fifteen who answered Coach Flatley's call there were Ishi Maroevich, this year's captain, Thorpe, Conlan, Williamson, Boyle, Hallinan, Larrecou, Lennon, White, Nick Maroevich and Bannan. Among the new men were Duffy, Hurd and Iverson, from Salt Lake High, Josephs erstwhile quarter- back on the Visalia High School team, Daly from St. Charles' College, Helena, Montana, Cantlin, Geigerich, McNichols, Welch, O'Neill, Devine, Halpin and Ianas. 72 THE IGNA TIAN Yeomen 7, St. Ignatius 0. Two weeks after the first practice had been set for the first game, and it was a rather uneasy crowd that climbed Ignatian Heights that day to see the team play its first game of American football. ' Most of us were wondering how high the Yeomen would roll up the score. We were hoping for the best but preparing ourselves at the same time for the worst, It was a useless process. To see our light team, inex- perienced,-this was the first game for all but three of the men-hold off the seasoned Navy team for the entire first quarter, to see that team actually outplay the op- posing eleven in the second quarter was enough to make any Ignatian jubilant. VVe could scarcely credit our senses. In spots the boys' work was crude. We expected that, but to think that they had not yet been scored upon, that seemed impossible. The Iackies, too, were puzzled. The fifty to nothing score that had been predicted before the game was not materializing. Something had to be done, and it was done. A new and fresh team faced our boys as the whistle blew for the second half. We kicked off to the sailors and here our troubles began. The perfectly fresh Yeomen 'backs tore away at our line in furious fashion. At first their gains were slight, but then before the constant plunging the line weakened momentarily, and before the boys could pull themselves together the ball was across our line. The goal was kicked and the score stood seven against us. That was the only score made by our op- ponents, for its team rallied wonderfully and held its own during the rest of the game. Our first game had been played and lost, but it was a defeat that was a victory, it was a defeat that was full of sweetness. The team, every member of it, had done himself proud, and showed at least UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS 73 that every game played would be a real struggle, not a walk-away. Grizzlies 13, St. Ignatius 0. Our second game was played on our gridiron against the Grizzlies, a team of ex-college stars enlisted in the California Artillery. It was another case of weight and experience having the edge. Our boys put up a scrappy game, fought for every inch of ground, again and again holding the Bears at bay. Never do I expect to see a prettier exhibition of stubborn defensive play than that given by our Varsity towards the close of the last quarter. The Grizzlies had scored on heavy plunges in the first and third quarters, and yet twice with goal to gain our boys held like an adamantine Wall and forced them to relinquish the ball on downs. In the two weeks that had elapsed since the Yeomen game the team had learned much, yet the knack of giving proper interference had not been acquired by the linemen and the backs were still running alone. To pick out any single member of the team for special praise when all deserve commendation would be manifestly unfair, yet the great offensive work of Larrecou, Duffy and Capt. Maroevich before he was obliged to leave the game on account of injuries and the fine play on de- fense of Tub O'Neill, Nick Maroevich and Thorpe can hardly be passed over in silence. Davis Farm 7, St. Ignatius 13. Our first intercollegiate game was played against Davis Farm CCalifornia Aggiesj on the Davis grounds. The day was oppressively hot, a severe handicap for us dwellers in the fog belt, yet the issue save for a very few minutes in the third quarter was never in doubt. Davis elected to kick off and Duify who received the ball carried it in 74 THE IGNATIAN fifteen yards. Then began a series of cross-kicks and end- runs to the Farm's ten-yard line. Here Duff passed neatly to Larrecou and before the Farm boys realized what was happening Larry was nestling beneath the goal posts. Larry converted an easy goal. Here the heat and dust got in their deadly work, and just before half time one of the Scott brothers, scored for Davis on a thirty-yard run, and kicked the goal, tying the score. The fifteen minute rest, combined with Coach Flatleyls words of advice, had the desired effect, for Davis did not have a chance in the last half. Early in the third quarter Fullback Boyle, alias Williamsoii, scored on a sensational twenty-yard run around right end. It was a pretty piece of sprinting and saved the day for S. I., for we scored no more points, though two drop kicks were essayed. The aerial attack participated in by Duffy, Ishi II, Boyle and Thorpe, was launched successfully during the latter portion of the game for substantial gains. Duff handled the team in excellent fashion, cleverly entangling several nasty knots caused by the slipping of signals in the back- tield. Conlan, O'Neill, Hurd and Iverson on the line did more than their share towards bringing home the bacon. opening up line holes for the backs on the offense, and defensively proved themselves towers of strength by again and again smashing up interference. Terry Boyle, who succeeded Capt. Maroevich at full-back early in the game, did some great line plunging, though if the real secret were known, I think that it was the inverted camouflage stuff he pulled that enabled him to wade through the Farmers' line so often. Until he was right on top of them they could not tell whether he was coming or going. Tub O'Neill, too, had a trick play all his own, but one of his team-'mates blocked him and Tub was nailed in his tracks. In this game the team showed itself more of a machine, UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS 75 the interference especially working much better. The experience gained in the two previous games was made the most of, and if the succeeding games witniess a like improvement we need have no fear of the outcome of the St. Mary's game. With Capt. Maroevich and Bill Thorpe, both of whom are at present on the hospital list, back in the game, nothing should stop the team. Complete schedule: Sept. 30-Yeomen at St. Ignatius Stadium.

Although one can be certain of very little these days when Uncle Sam is calling so many of our comrades to the colors, still from present indications St. Ignatius should be represented on the court by at least one sterling quintet this season. I say one sterling quintet for no one knows just what material there is for the 145--pound team. Eddie Molkenbuhr and Joe McLaughlin will be on hand, and that means at least a fair team. One or two players more like them will give us a world-beater. In the unlimited division with Capt. Boyle, Williamson, Larrecou, O'Neill, Conlan, Ohlandt, Cronin, Wagner, Slevin, Galtes and I know not how many more wizs, the team should certainly capture the intercollegiate bunting. M elffin I. Cronin. isigli Svrhnnl Athlrtira FOOTBALL. At the opening of classes it was thought best, even though the University had adopted American football, for us Preps, to continue Rugby for another season at least. That seemed the wiser plan then, but now Rugby at St. Ignatius High seems dead. Officially it lives but actually -well the embalming fluid has not been applied yet though it might just as well be, for with the Rugby booters disbanded, with St. Ignatius Informal on the long side of the score in both its starts, with the number of lower classmen turning out for American practice daily increasing, what need is there of an obituary notice for Rugby? ' But why the change of heart? Was it merely iickleness on our part? VVas it the Hitchcock drubbing? Yes and no. Our squad was light, very light, the Hitchcock game was agreed upon as the crucial test. If our frail untried warriors could go through that game with a reasonable chance of escaping serious injury, if they could show that weight was not essential, Rugby would be our game. If not, football for this year at least would have to be dropped. On the morning of September 15th fremember those hot days, fellowslj, our fifteen romped on the field at San Rafael to battle the Military Academy team. The boys romped on, the sun beat down, the dust stirred up by those thirty stamping players rose in clouds. For ten minutes not a try, then Capt. '1Bert Wallis was carried to the side-lines, out from a bad kick. Revived he went back into the fray, but all in vain. Another shrill call, sub- stitute No. 1 went in. And from that on the battle was all against us. At half-time Hitchcock had thirteen points. L 'i .fb ,Q ma-.-..,.' - 5 -i xy, V Q, 4 1 J I . Vw ff' 4. la EV ,l . Qz ' iff 't l rf: --' fl-1 UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS 77 Subs, all we had on the side-lines, were sent in during the second half, yet, despite our boys' desperate fighting, when the final whistle tooted Hitchcock had rolled up twenty-seven points while no S. I. players had scored. St. Ignatius High had gone down to defeat, but St. Ig- natius felt proud of the boys, light of weight, and green as grass as regards their knowledge of Rugby, who man- fully battled against Weight and experience under con- ditions that would have tried the endurance of the hardiest of teams. Following this game the team was disbanded. That spelt Rugby's doom, for at once some of the hardier of the lower classmen organized an American football squad. For weeks they practiced. They were not counting on doing much this year, but at least they would learn the game and next year with added weight and height, they would be ready for the other high schools should American be introduced. Their efforts were rewarded sooner than they ever dreamed of. Two games, practice of course, were arranged with University School, and from each S. I. H. Informal emerged victorious, 7 to 6 the first time, 13 to 0 the second. Jimmy Duffy, Darrell Brown, Schlitz Schulz, Dick Mohun, Charlie Harney, Ed Harris and Al Casey are a few of the stalwarts who are bringing Ameri- can into its own at S. I. H. More -power to them in their doughty efforts! 78 THE IGNATIAN BASKETBALL. Here's where we shine. You should see the numbers that turn out for practice. Every day the court is crowded with the lightweights, -for the S. F. A. L. schedule is keeping the 130- and the 145-pound teams until after Christmas. These are the quintets which we expect to carry the Red and Blue to victory, for they established a record for themselves last year, but if present indications count for anything there will be other winning fives at S. I. H. this year. There is some very promising material among the 100- and ll0-pound teams, especially among the new candidates, who will make a few of the veteran tossers hustle a bit to hold their places. Our 100-pound quintet will be picked from the following: A. Popes, F. Cunningham, A. Ragan, C. Keith, W. Hanley, R. Burns, E. Cullinan, ED. Clancy and D. McQuaid. And you should see the team work among our 110-pound players. Coach Cantwell is out every day with the boys, explaining to them the rules of the game and the science of passing with accuracy. Will', says that he's got some good stuff among them, and with a little more practice he will be able to develop a pretty fast team. Those who are showing up for practice are: Frank Gallagher, Joe Corbett, E. Davinroy, Lefty O'C0n- nor, Captain jerry Kane, N. Donnelly, R. Fulton, Jack Kavanagh and Willie Reilly. Gene O'Meara is man- aging this team in his usual efficient style and has ar- ranged a likely-looking schedule. But of all the weight teams the 120-pounders are showing the greatest skill in handling the ball, probably due to the fact that their line-up contains not a few of last year's 110-pound victors, and that they are being coached by such an experienced player as Leo Boyle, who is de- voting all his spare time to the betterment of the team. UNIVERSITYKATHLETICS 79 Those who are out to make the team are: Marty O'Brien, C. Sweigert, Pete Maloney, Joe Looney, Vin Maguire Ccaptainj, Bill Rice, F. Flynn, H. Cronin, G. Devine. This team is under the management of Al. Young, who is preparing a series of practice games for them in order that he may bring them up to their highest point of efficiency for the coming league season. Norbert VV.
