IGNATIUS PREP Lamb, John. Though he was absent from us for a time, he returned to graduate with the rest of his claws. A classic profile marks him from the rabble and has endeared him to his classmates. A straight fellow, a good student, and his ability as an athlete, has Won him the friendship and confidence of the class. In his work at school, John has always done well and should continue to do the same in times ahead. , Lane, James. Basketball, '24, Swimming, '24, Jim- mie despite the fact that he is a North Sider, is sitting pretty with the ladies on the West Side. He is one of the few who strove for St. Ignatius in aquatic events. He is well liked and popular at school, and in certain other schools for that matter. Lane, John. One of the class 's most advanced sheiks. Holds the interclass dance championshipg member of swimming, '24, and didnhis stuff in the Pageant of Youth., His winning personality and ready wit have won' him a host of friends and have proved him a real fellow. Jim has been a studious scholar in his four years here, and should have no trouble in getting ahead next year, whether it be in college or business. Lapka., John. R. O. T. C. Johnny spent his irst year in Our Army, but itinee it disbanded has been forced back into eivies and has been wearing them ever since. He has not partaken actively in athletics al- though he has shown his true Ignatius spirit by giving them his loyal and hearty support. Loef, John. The baker has long since been hailed as the class physicifet. He well deserves the title. For three years he answered honors without a break. And 11ot only that, but he proved himself to be quite an artist on the cinder path in '23. And John doesn't infest the Speedway nor does he smoke.

IGNATIUS PREP l I I 2 Klimek, Erwin. Known for silence and for ability to studyg heiis a loyal student and a backer of all student activities. He holds the school record for never having missed a Latin recitation. VVears a sombre countenance to school only, and is a beau in his own neighborhood. Knight, John. It is neccessary to know John thor- oughly before you really understand him. The class has had this privilege and he is hailed as one of its most popular members. He used his athletic ability in basketball and baseball, basketball lights in '23, baseball, '23, '24, and also played in the orchestra in '2:2. His ability as pitcher greatly helped the baseball team on to the championship in '24, He participated in the Pageant of Youth. Krasniewski, Casimir. In spite having his name misspelled once out of every three times, Kras has be- come one of the best known and well liked fellows in the class, perhaps for that very reason. A good student and a firm supporter of the theory that knowledge comes from asking questions, has brought him to the front. We hope that he succeeds as well in the future as he has done in school. Kunka, Anthony. Tony, unlike others, has grown smaller, since entering St. Ignatius. We suspect that he has been taking lessons from the famous Mr. Wal- lace. It is rumored about school that he is often seen in the notorious music shop of Ted tsnyder. An, in- dustrious student and a loyal backer of school activi- ties. La.Fond, Charles. Scholarship and the R. O. T. C. Cl1arlie's hobby is playing pool, not to omit smoking tlittle devillj. Of course his interests are not all academic. He is in great demand at all the school hops and stands Mace high with all the fellows at school. 16

IGNATIUS PREP Mahoney, John. Basketball, Flies, '21, Heavieiz, '24, Baseball, '23, '24, Monogram Club. John entered school as a puny youth but soon grew into budding manhood and took an active part in school activities. The Valentino of Catholic League basketball players, John drew moreigirls to the games than anyone else. Besides shining in baseball, John is also a good stu- dent and an industrious Worker. Maslon, Lafdislaus. We know that Laclislaus will suc- ceed as well in whatever he takes up in future years as he has done in the past four years here. He took part in The Last Trick and showed therein a theatric ability that he had not made use of in his Hrst three years at St. lgnatius. Mayr, Perry. Lightweight football captain, '22, Bas- ketball Qlightsj, '2-ig baseball, '23, '24, captain, '24, Monogram Club. Perry is retiring by nature, but it iloesn't do him very much good af: he is too well liked to sit very far. He is one of the main reasons for the championship baseball team this year and the success of the lightweight basketball team is largely clue to him. McAuliffe, Timothy. 'l'in1's humor has served to en- lighten many a dull journey with Virgil. A member in good standing of the T. N. T. fraternity, otherwise k.noWn as The 4A Hoodlums. He originated the famed 4A slogan, It's only just. Tim was seldom caught off guard when loosing his mischievous nature which speaks well for his four-year training. McCann, Bernard. Bernie is inimitable. His wit is unusual and strikingly original, as anyone who knows him can testify. Besides playing in the orches- tra in '23, '24, he was on the football squad and a member of the Glee Club. In his last three months here, he has been associated with an automobile and always insists that someone accompany him on his jaunts about the city. 218
