r— Rev. William Dunne, S.J. President FACULTY PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Here in the opening paragraph of the Educational Aims we have in brief synopsis the end for which St. Ignatius High School stands. In the successes and failures which are inevitable in high school life you have had the chance to develop the entire man, mind and heart, body and soul and the meas- ure of your success is found in Him who is the Guide of your life. Have you come closer to Him? Are you now more like the Man-God than when your school year began? Is your soul stronger by reason of the increase in graces which has been yours? Have you cooperated with those who have been trying to guide you to your goal? If you can Rev. Carroll O'Sullivan, S.J. Rector M Sgf. Andrew Dcmchok Mr. George Dennis S.J. M Sg». R. H.

DEDICATION Going forth into a hostile and pagan world Surrounded on all sides by old errors revamped as new Disguised as lately discovered truths Surrounded by a hypocritical world that Is afraid to defy God And so disregards and laughs at Him. . . . It is well that the young men of the Class of '49 Recognize as their particular patron The Saint that is the teacher of their teachers Who also was tempted to sophistication But who rose to sanctity in a world of sin. So to Saint Ignatius Loyola, servant of Jesus, We dedicate this journal of our activities, In the hope that through his intercession with Mary and with Jesus We of the Class of '49 may remain ever steadfast In our Holy Faith.

answer the affirmative then you can be sure that you are a true Ignatian. Whether as a senior you are standing at the portal of new experiences, or as one who is still working toward the goal, you should stop and think, you should take stock of yourself and if there is reason for a mea culpa humble yourself and rededicate yourself to the task. If by God's grace you stand now more a man than you did on that day in September when you entered St. Ignatius, then humbly thank Him who is the cause of your success and beg of Him the grace to con- tinue on the way He has set you until you reach the end which is eternity, happiness, God Himself!
