But these things do not broaden a man by themselves. They must be unitied. And it is the spirit of the people, places, and activities which unifies the sep- arate elements. lt is this spirit which a man must capture it he would profit from his travels. We here at St. James wish to talce you on a iourney. We have here a new building, and we would travel through it with you. We will introduce new people- the faculty and the students. We will show you new places-our class- rooms, our gym, our auditorium. We will present our activities-our classes, our clubs, our sports. But most ol all we will help you capture the spirit of St. James. It is a spirit ol constant striving. It is a spirit which says: Seek those things which are above. 11' 111. 11? 31?

Pretect ol Discipline Applied Mathematics Senior Prom Father Donadieu uses the new public address system to malre the announcements at the close ot the school day. I V Rev. Francis P. O'Reilly, M,A, Don't let Father O'Reilly's smile deceive you. This is a disciplinary matter. And Father Eltz shows the concern the disciplin- arians feel about all inlractions ol the school rules. Discipline at St. James is designed to be a special training to do good and to avoid the wrong. We prefer to inspire the students to obey out ot love ot God and for common- sense reasons. We try to point out to the students that they are writing their own reference lor later lite. It can be crystallized into a way ol lile . . . do what is right and be happy . . . do the disobedient thing and suffer the conse- quences, always disastrous, always unhealthy, always re-echoing remorse. Truly, the obedient student shall speak ol victory and also of graduation. Rev. Aloysius J.

LATIN II Caesar rides again as Father Doug- herty increases the sophomoric knowledge of Latin. The rules of grammar, the coniugations, and the declensions are put to good use as the sophomores read of the exciting battles of Caesar. insert: Edward NI6dZI6IkO C 4 lnsert: Joseph Leveille, C-3 .ra n 1 ENGLISH tl Everyone agrees that to get along in this world toclcy, you must be able to spealr correctly.
