Proudly boasting of the largest membership and the greatest steady attendance since the institution of the Sodality at St. Ignatius, the junior Sodality has run smoothly all year and accomplished much through the thoughtful suggestions and practical resolutions of the first and second year men. Under the spirited leadership of Bill Braun, Prefect, the junior Sodality has backed the October, the Lenten, and the May devotions in a very creditable manner. Their greatest zeal was shown, perhaps, at Christmas, when the juniors filled and delivered five bountiful baskets of food to the poor. lt has often been said that the force which Prefect . . . . William Braun First Assistant . . Richard Kenney Second Assistant . . William Doran Secretary . . . joseph Milligan Treasurer . , Francis Curran Consultor ..... Francis Zelenka Moderator . Rev. Henry A. Brockman, S.j. holds an organization together depends upon the activity and interest of its meetings. And the manner in which the junior Sodalists con- duct their meetings truly exercises great force in holding the interest of the members. Such live-wire topics as the value of the Mass and l-loly Communion, Catholic papers, Spain, Russia, Mexico, and Communism, were pro- posed and discussed by the Sodalists them- selves, and, under the guiding influence of their moderator, Fr. Henry A. Brockman, S. j.. they succeeded in obtaining a real Catholic viewpoint on each-a viewpoint which is of no little importance to a Catholic student to- day. junior Sodality Officers j Tuwzry-.v1'w11 j

The Sodality of the Blessed Virgin is the dominating influence in both secular and re- ligious fields, at St. Ignatius. lt stands alone at the head of all school activities: its flux mirrors the pulse of the school. Every out- standing student is a Sodalistg every success- ful athlete is a member of Our Lady's Sodality, ln September, directed by Fr. Wilfred C. Lauer, S. j.. the Senior Sodality launched a year of true Catholic Action, unequaled for several years past. Hardly had the year begun before the Sodality-sponsored Homecoming Festival was arranged and staged. ln spiritual exercises the Sodality is by no Senior Sodality Officers McAvoy, j.

But in government and organization, the So- dality has taken most progressive steps this year. Committees have been done away with because of their bulkiness and the flexible cel- lular unit system, mapped in imitation of the Mystical Body of Christ, was substituted. The Proxy Revision system and the Proportional Representation method of election were also adopted by the Sodality. means lax.

With the same pep and enthusiasm which characterized its earlier activities, the Fathers' Club of St. Ignatius began its first full year's existence with the opening of the school term in September of l937. Always with the ob- jective of promoting the companionship of father and son, and of making St. Ignatius a better school, they immediately pledged their support to all school activities. Then came a series of Bingo parties. Hop- ing to raise funds with which to inaugurate certain much needed improvements in the school, the Dads and students worked side by side in their endeavor to fill the hall for each Bingo eve. ln this they were successful. Becoming aware of the bemoaned fact that talented students who could hardly afford the tuition fees necessary at Ignatius were being turned into the milling mass of Catholic stu- Q dents in public schools, the Dads began a drive to raise a scholarship fund, This they did by staging a series of raffles in which the lone prize was one thousand dollars and the tickets limited to twenty-four hundred. Besides, the Dads have held a feature Fathers'-Sons' Night and recently a Mothers' Night, which have proven very entertaining and successful. The Dads Club was born April l9, i937 be- cause of the pressing need existing for a social link between the fathers and their student sons. Since that time, under the direction of the Club's dynamic organizer, Fr. Gerald B. Garvey, S. l., the Dads have blazed a trail across the pages of Ignatius history. All in all, the Fathers Club has been a welcome and energetic addition to Ignatius' social life, and a booster of extra-curricular activities. 1 - I Al l Tfwenty-eight :I
