Loftus, Wall, and Korte sold all athletic tickets, peddling them from the ticket office and roaming the yards with them at lunch time. When cheer-leaders were chosen for football and basketball, student councilmen sat through ten or fifteen arm-waving sessions to pick the three best. Grand potentate, chairman of the student council, and president of the Student Body is slick-haired, stocky Bill Gaul. He reads the morning announcements, keeps order at the football and basketball games, speaks at rallies, and has a big finger in every major school pie. With Father Tichenor he has led the school leaders in deciding what should happen and how at St. Ignatius.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT Every Tuesday, in conference Room 108, at two twenty o'clock, Fr. Tichenor closeted himself with the leaders of the school. Together they worked out its problems. Together they mapped the future and discussed the developments of the past. The president of every top school organization sat in to add a flavor of religion, activities, and sports to the politics. Their time was spent in discussion and constructive criticism of the IGNATIAN, the RED BLUE, and the other school groups. Often they discussed applications for the Block Club, or the distribution of letters to baseball pitchers. At the year's beginning they argued bitterly about the intramural program, finally agreeing with Mr. Gibson on the acceptable choice. All dances were threshed out over the Student Council table, as well as the Senior Privilege, President's day, and most of the rallies. Student Council in Session

JAMES KEARNEY President EDWARD DoMARTINI Vice-President ROBERT BIANCHI Treasurer JOSEPH O'BRIEN Secretary RAYMOND LEAHY Sergeant-ot-Arms On the thirteenth of June, two hundred and eight Ignotians will receive Communion at a mass in the SI Chapel, eot breakfast together and receive their diplomas in the Civic Auditorium. Teachers, classmates, teams, activities, picnics, dances, rallies, retreats — all will be no more than memories. It is to them this book is really dedicated, that these memories may be made more tangible, and that the glory of the Class of '48 may become pictorial history. Though unspectacular, the Senior Class nevertheless has produced its quota of star athletes, leaders, scholars, orators, musicians, actors, jokers, and saints, it has thoroughly enjoyed four years on the Hilltop, left its indelible footprint in the Ignatian corridors, and, after steeping its members in Christian principles, sent them out fortified into the world.
