IGNATIUS PREP Hannon, Edward. Ed has a pretty pair of gold medals hung up at home, also a bunch of little gold ribbons. He exhibits these on every occasion possible. Although Virgil has lost all terrors to Ed, he is still popular with his less fortunate and envious class- mates. A year of lightweight football in '22 was enough for Ed in an athletic way. He was on the Senior Prom committee. Hatton, George. George has acquired quite a reputa- tion this last year as an able performer on the cornetg but why shouldn't he be, playing with the orchestra for three years, '22, '23, '24. He has become popular with the teachers through an earnestness in study this year that we ean't remember in the past. How- ever, we are glad to say that this fact did not lessen the popularity that was his for four years among his fellow students. He. was also a member of a certain crowd that went on the Senior picnic. Henry, James. R. O. T. C., Football, Lights, '23, '2l. NVhen the junior football team was organized, Jim proved himself to be a flashy lightweight. He has a good sense of humor and is a good friend to all. The only thing We have against Jim is his tendency to rate the South Side above the West Side. Jim is one of the many seniors who wishes he studied Chem- istry. I-Iiler, John P. John is one of the famous two, but there are at least four in fourth year who claim they could pick him from a crowd and say, Sure, this is John. He played on the basketball team this year and was one of the reasons for the team finishing up near the top. He has always been a supporter of the class room athletics, and has played on every class team in all the sports. I-Iiler, William IP. Bill is known as the other one to most students at St. Ignatius and is identified by the laugh which he made famous. Recently bitten by the golf bug, he makes use of Jackson Park nightly, and the next day insists that you listen to the running story, play for play. There 's one in every class. Outside of that, he 's a likable fellow who made the Prep this year, and who played on the '23 football team. He also was a member of the light basketball team of '24. 9 .4

IGNATIUS PREP Fitzgerald, William. Fitz is another one of those fellows that can be depended upon to witness every Ignatius contest. Although not an active participant, he is one of our most faithful rooters. In class he is dependable, particularly so in Greek. Jim is also a good sodalist. A Fitzpatrick, Frank. Elocution contest '22, '23, '24g Loyola Literary Society. Frank hails from the far west ffrom Austin, we meanj, and is proud of it. He has been known to frequent the great city west of his home, and therein has had many adventures. When at St. Ignatius he occupies himself by debating and arguing with Latin teachers. This latter practice has won him undying fame. As a member of the debating team of '23, '24, he has made himself popular with the students and faculty, who wish him luck in all his coming ventures. - - Fundarek, Stephen. Steve 's principal interest lies in radio, and nothing incenses him more than to show an indiiference towards this fad, tHe surely likes to have radio referred to as a fad.j He has quite a set at home, so he says, that is as near perfect as possible. Outside of this weakness, Steve is rational on most points, and gets along with teachers, students, studies, and athletics, without overtaxing himself too, much. Gomolski, Frank. Caszt of Let's GO and Royal Yellow. For four years the PREP staff has awarded- Frank a position on its All-Ignatius mythical team and this year was All-Senior full-back. He is especi- ally fond of dances and tea-parties and an athletic contest. A general in Let's Go. His future is probably the army. Grady, Joseph. Joe, we must admit, does most of his starring in the Latin class, where his wit and ques- tions attract much attention Csometimes, we must say, to his own chagrinj. But aside from that, Joe has proven to be a scholar of more than periodic inno- cence-and should turn in a high average. He is a fel- low who can be relied upon in an emergency. 212

IGNATIUS PREP Hoberg, Joseph. Joe is one of those fellows that high school seems to be made for. He is universally liked, an athlete, and a topnotch scholar. His first step into the sport limelight was in '23 as guard on the bantam basketball team. He also played on the '24 bantams. For four years he has grabbed off first honors and shown that he is a student adept in all branches. During this last year he has blossomed forth as a poet and artist, and the PREP has certainly prohted by his ability. Hogan, Janves. Jim was always a member of his class teams, indoor, basketball, or whatever it hap- pened to be. After February and June exams he can always be found on the ancient Sodality Hall stage with a red honor ribbon decorating his manly chest. He intends to go to college next year. Hurtubise, Edward. Eddie was one of the best bas- ketball performers at St. Ignatius. A member of the heavyweight championship team of '23 and captain of the heavies of this year. Eddie was especially good when some of his North Side steadies came to see the game. He is a fine fellow and always Willing to help Qduring examsj. Jasinski, Andrew. When .Andy started to school here he was Ka model youth to look up to. But during the past year he has gone from bad to worse. He has caused no end of anxiety to unsuspecting profs. His chief characteristics are silence and diligence, but he dispenses with these While at school. But for all that, we like Andy, and he is included in our list of merry-makers. His future is jail or collegeg they zncan the same to him. Johnson, Walter. One of the most sincere in the '24 graduating class. He has won many friends in his stay at school and will leave many behind. Is especi- ally well known as a Spanish student, as the Senor can testify. Walter has done much for the school by his loyalty in its enterprises. Interested in elocution, and in the contest of '21, 214
