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

A classic profile marks him from the rabble and has endeared him to his classmates.

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.
