0112155 nf 1924 I FTER two long months of enjoyment, sport and out- J ings, of the kind and nature that give great pleasure and rest, we turned again into the beaten path that winds its ways towards the sheltering walls of old St. Joes. We enteredthe building on the mlorning of September 12, 1921, with a feeling of persons, getting home after a long journey to foreign lands. ln the corridors we met manv of our friends of last year, and found that quite a few of them were strutting around sporting long trousers. Soon we were ushered to our room, one of the finest in the building. There we were greeted by our teacher of 1 last year-the Rev. Brother Dominic, lf. S. C. The tuo U I - lirst years of 1920-1921 were united and formed one dandy Rev' B '-F-D m f'F'S'C' second year. Our prospects for the year looked bright and as you read on, you will see that our conjectures came true. Wfith the merging of the two classes, new acquaintances were formed. Two new corners were with us, Henry XYeitenberner, formerly of the U. of D. high school and Lester Dietz, of the Annunciation high school. t Our field of labor for the second year differed in many respects from that of the first in that we were to occupy a more pleasing room, the one used by the Seniors, secondly besides continuing several of our last year's subjects we were to take up the study of Plane Geometry, Ancient History and quite a few Radio, and third and last, we found that the passing mark had been changed from 60 to 70 per cent. 1 Three weeks after the opening of school, Brother Dominic suggested that we organize a class society, this suggestion was received with great enthusiasm and accordingly acted on, with the result that oflicers were elected to hold office for one quarter at a time. The name of the society was called the Nazareth Council of the Archconfraternity of the Divine Child, its object being to promote and foster devotion to the Child Jesus. Meetings were held every Friday after-- noon. Along in October Brother Henry, director, came into our room and told us about the Christian Brothers, Diamond jubilee Fund 1 just what this fund was to be used for and then urged us to go out and sell the chances, and thus in a small way show our appreciation for the seventy-five years of hard work and zeal on thc part of the good Christian Brothers. Vile responded to his appeal and with heart and soul entered the crusade that was put on, so much so, that we were the first class to go over the top, a feat in itself to be proud of. XVe are glad to learn that the crusade was a success in other parts of the country and that this Memorial Building is now in the course of construction. VVith the opening of the football season, Father Klarshke called for candidates and some dozen or more lads of our room responded, and worked might and main to make the team, with the result that all without exception found a place on it. VVhat is more, by their great unHinching work at all times, whether in practice or in actual playing, they gave all they had and thus brought honor and glory to Alma Mater. Under the able leadership of Stephen Martin the first school foot- ball team of St. joe's did remarkably well. Those from our class were: Martin, Shaughnessy, Daoust, Clarke, Becker, Carroll, Collins, Smith, O'Rourke, Lynch. Page Forty-four
