A hasty cross-country trip across the states and soon I would be back in Brookline! With a desire to refresh my memory about former events I withdrew two volumes from my zipper case. In the 1941 ASSUMPTA I read: Ours was a happy return to school. The first class meeting established George Duffy, Eileen Moore, Bernard Fleming, and Katherine Bailey as class officers. Septem- ber also marked our return to Junior Holy Name and Children of Mary conferences. The extracurricular activities were resumed with Glee Club and Assumpta Society drawing from the Junior ranks, Jeanne Donovan was director of the orchestra, Madeline Tarpy was pianist, Madeline and Florence Ryan were on the school debating teamsg Thomas Burns was elected football captain for 1941, Francis Kenney later became basketball captain-elect, and Henry Meade was our oratorical representative. All too soon four months of school passed and we began the Christmas vaca- JUNIOR OFFICERS George Duffy .... Prerident Eileen Moore .

Many of the Juniors were successful advertising agents for the 1941 Yaaanoorc. Jeanne Donovan opened up her home for a Yearbook Party during January. As in other years it was very successful. Undergraduate debate teams were or- ganized with an all-Junior membership. The third week of January saw us in at- tendance at the Senior play. The next week brought the outdoor winter carnival, a gala and novel event. On the first Friday of each month the delegates to the Junior Red Cross reported to the Boston Headquarters. Florence Ryan and Rita Neary were our representa- tives, In February there were some very tense moments when we watched the girls basketball teams as they marched on vic- toriously to the Diocesan Championship. Henry Meade was our divisional represent- ative when we won a second Diocesan Championship in Debating. Helen Quealy and Eileen Coleman were the clever twirlers for the Girls' Bugle and Drum Corps. Junior talent was in evidence at the Spring Concert for Margaret Joyce and Janet MacKenzie were soloists, Jeanne Donovan, Betty Downes, Margaret Shiel and Madeline Tarpey played piano duets and Paul Jellison, John Kenney, Thomas Burns, William Burke and Thomas Le- Vangie were prominent in the Boys' Glee Club. i We enjoyed our class Valentine party and Janet MacKenzie's efforts in the poe- try. The Weeks seemed to fly as we recall the landmarks: Motherls Club play, Peg O' My Hearty the Senior Prom, the Senior one- act play May 2nd, the Zeppelin party May 19, the Music Concert and Recital May 25 fJune 11, Graduation! Then we suddenly discovered that we were the Seniors-elect. RITA NEARY .l. ii X unior Poem Hallowed memories waken Of our dear class and school. We'll live on and hearken To her guidance unto Truth.

CATHERINE LARK1N '43 More Sophomores travel in Commercial Geography Others conquering with Caesar 34 Sophomore Class History In September, we returned to our dearly beloved halls and arduously applied our- selves to our new and absorbing studies. We were happy to welcome Helena D'- Arcy, and later David Conlon, Charles Hennessy, Frances MacMahon, Edward Merritt, William Sheehan and Louise Safilord. The victorious candidates of the class elections were: Robert Costello, president, Pauline Martin, vice-president, Thomas Fallon, treasurer, and Frances Nixon, secretary. Interest in debating and oratory spurred on the members of the Sophomore class. With continued fidelity to weekly prac- tice, Claire Kelly won the distinctive honor of being the sole Sophomore member in the girls' division of the Assumpta Debating Society. Interclass debates were inaugu- rated this year, Maureen Coffey, Mary Larkin, Marie O'Brien, Regina Rafferty, Barbara Reed and I composed the Sopho- more team. The most eloquent class orators were Robert Farrington and Donald Fergu- son, the former winning first prize in the Freshman-Sophomore debate, the latter gaining recognition in the boys' Debating Society. In athletics, likewise, the Sopho- mores were outstanding. Our athletic heroes were David Conlon, Robert Cos- tello, John Curran, Maurice Crounse, Charles Griffen, Peter McMahon, Thomas Powers and John Mclnerney, who was chosen All-Catholic right tackle. Barbara Reed and Ruth Fleming aided in winning the first Girls' Basketball League cham- pionship. The Sophomore Class of St. Mary's cer- tainly made the headlines on the twentieth of March when the students read of the Cash Hunt conducted by the Barron Parr. Maurice Crounse and Donald Ferguson, taking advantage of the school holiday, went to town and returned with the hundred-dollar prize. We must add that they sponsored an informal classroom party. The Light Bringerr, biweekly Sodality meetings, the Orchestra, the Boys' Band, the Girls' Bugle and Drump Corps, and Glee Clubs also kept many of our spirited schoolmates occupied. Many silver-voiced Sophomores contributed their talents to the boys' choir. Claire Kelly displayed great skill as one of the four twirling drum majorettes in the girls' Bugle and Drum Corps. In the early spring, Jeanne Ford and Charles Hennessy received prizes as Soph- omore spelling championsg the latter was also awarded a silver medal. Marie O'Brien and john Murphy also brought honor to our class by winning first and third prizes in a state animal-poster contest. Class Day, with the Sophomore Daisy Chain attend- ants, ancl Senior Communion breakfast, at which our class oflicers presided, warned us that our happy year was nearly finished. We departed contented, having been as- sured of our positions as distinguished upperclassmen. MARIE MCDONALD SOPHOMORE OFFICERS Robert Costello . A , Prerident Pauline Martin . .

We were happy to welcome to our midst James Crane, Richard Grant, John Mahan, Fran- cis MacHowell, Paul Powers and later, Raymond McMaster. Eagerly we antici- pated the Halloween Dance at which the Freshmen were to be initiated into high- school life. Dorothy Larkin and Mary Dolan won first prize for their costumes. Winter arrived and with it the Ice Carni- val, at which Virginia Keady, Dorothy Lacy and Francis Mahoney distinguished themselves by figure skating. At the opening of the new year, the annual Freshman-Sophomore Oratorical Contest was held with David Horan, Donald Ford, John Gliver, Joseph Mc- Cormack, Francis Rafferty, and Robert Coakley participating, and David Horan winning honors with his eloquent address. With the approach of spring we devoted our attention to the Herald-Trmeler Spell- ing Bee contest. The class prizes, bronze medals, were awarded to Dorothy Reilly and Lucy Foley, who also merited the grade prize, a silver medal. VVC were proud to announce that Eleanor Shiel brought honor to the Freshman class by winning first prize in an art contest conducted by the Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Animals. The Freshmen are also enthusiastic par- ticipants in the Bugle and Drum Corps, Boys' Band, Glee Club and Orchestra. Virginia Keady has displayed remarkable technique in twirling a baton. Eleanor Shiel, James Crane, Robert Coakley and John Meehan have contributed their tal- ents to the orchestra. Two principal num- bers in the Spring Concerts by the Glee Club were Patricia Lambert's piano duet and ElayneJacques' solo.

The congregation is impressed by the assurance and knowl- edge of ceremonies manifested by the St. Mary's altar boys and especially the mem- bers of St. John Berchmans' Society. As it does not suflice in order to erect a house to merely lay the stones but it is a requisite that they be united, so too we know that it was instruction, repetition and constant drill that made the altar boys render serv- ices at the altar that are in keeping with the principles Rev. William McCarthy imparted to them. Living in the service of God are the altar boys in the St. john Berchmans' Sanc- tuary Society. When a boy has completed two years of service and is about to gradu- ate from grammar school, he is presented with a diploma of membership in this or- ganization. St. John Berchmans, you know, is the patron of all altar boys. His devout inten- tion from his earliest youth was to enter the priesthood and save souls for God. When very young, he became one of those nearest to God and to the priest, an altar boy. All during his years of serving, his in- tention to be a priest was uppermost in his mind. However, it did not coincide with God's will and when his day came, John died in complete peace and union with his Creator. On his deathbed, his face shone with sanctifying grace, he was still a young boy but a boy who had done every deed as well as it could be done. He wanted to be near God, his way was to be a good. We too should act like him and be grate- ful to God for the great privilege he offers us. With St. John Berchmans in mind, the altar boys at St. Mary's accept their as- signed tasks and endeavor to fulfill them in an excellent manner. Q 'lomsr KLLNNEY Little Flower Procession Little Therese of Lisieux is surely very pleased as she looks down upon our yearly tribute so carefully prepared in her honor. Even though her beautiful life story and pageant never change substantially, from year to year, yet she seems to bring forth a renewed challenge to her clients, a chal- lenge to imitate her simplicity and Chris- tian fervor. There is always a keen interest in know- ing which senior girl shall be elected to the principal role. The answer came one Sep- tember morning when the senior girls assembled to elect the principals for the pageant. Helen Melville '41 was the stu- dents' choice to take the part of Therese as a Carmelite nun. Hers was the honor of crowning the little Christ Child, a part assigned to Arthur O'Shea, Jr., of the sec- ond grade. Margaret E. Carmody was elected to the role of the Little Flower as a bride, receiving the Habit of the Carmelite Order. Her choice of attendant was Patricia McCormack '4l. All Senior girls participated in the beau- tiful tableaux formed on the steps of the main altar. There were trumpeters in pink satin to the left and right of the principal characters, garbed in soft blue and carrying silver grapes was a second group, a third group in white made a pleasing contrast with their palm branches. During the procession and pageant the underclassmen sang a selected group of hymns dedicated to St. Therese. MARG ARET CARMODY 43 B Carmody as bride H. Melville St. Therese Senior Attendants SSUTTI P. McCormack as bridesmaid Children of Mary The meetings of the Children of Mary for 1940-1941 were almost completed when this account was sent to the printer. Rev. William J. McCarthy has presented for this year a program of conferences under the general title Knightr of Gad. When we were very young we thought of knights as the lordly, heroic characters of literature who went about saving the op- pressed, or lighting for Christendom. They seemed to us to belong in a world apart. Now that we have heard fourteen of Father McCarthy's conferences on the Knights of God we know that even though war and devastation have not reached our shores that we ourselves are Knights of God and daughters of Our Ladye Fair. Now it is our turn to answer the challenge given us at these conferences and to really respond to the call to arms by appreciating our duties as Knights. We have paused to think about our rich endowment of God-given graces and vir- tues. We have meditated on the standard that is ours. We have carefully considered our plan of campaign and our equipment which includes the Gifts of the Holy Ghost and the Theological Virtues. We know that as Christian Knights our reward will be the Fruits of the Holy Ghost and The Beatitudes. ln addition to the general program of conferences there has been our biweekly Sodality paper Our Ideal, a Holy Ghost book composed by the Senior girls, and the many literary contributions of Father Mc- Carthy in the form of pamphlets. Our liter- ary and art project for the Children of Mary will take the form of posters and poems which exemplify the lesson which impressed us the most during the year. The climax of these meetings will take the form of a beautiful May procession and the coronation of Our Lady. M. Rocmz Memo The introduction of a daily religious paper, entitled Memo, was this year's major addition to the spiritual projects among the religious classes in the school. Of course, such a bulletin is not entirely an original ideag it has been successfully tried in large, central high schools and colleges. Our enthusiastic claims for its success in a small school, however, have been com- pletely proved. As the year progressed and the style and message of the Memowere understood by the student body, an invitation was extended to the high-school pupils to become con- tributing authors of Memo. lt was worth the effort when we realized how we might effectively spread the Word of God and iill our own minds with the idea of living in the normal state of life as each Monday morning's Memo advocated. Light Bringers Although the Light Bringers Society was founded only a few years ago by Rev. William J. McCarthy, it has acquired both success and distinction. The underclassmen are proud of their part in its growth and building. Next year it will include the Junior class as well as the first two classes. Mary Roche '41 was the Senior who helped the younger generation in their noble work of bringing light and happiness. junior Holy Name The Junior Holy Name Society began in October and continued to meet biweekly under the guidance of Rev. james J. Mc- Manus. The purpose of this society is to foster respect for the Holy Name and to guide our spiritual lives. After listening to a very practical and inspiring sermon, especially adapted to us as boys of 1941, we knelt at Benediction and pledged ourselves and our words to God that we might ever respect His Holy Name.

Girls' Debating Team Early in October the girls' debating teams assembled to begin preparation for the discussion of this year's topic, Re- solved: That the several states should take steps to insure the accuracy and fairness of all newspaper reports. This fall, the society welcomed three new speakers to the school team, Rena l-loran '41, Madeline Tarpey '42, and Claire Kelly '43. Our veterans were Yvonne McGarry '41, Faye Gallimore '41 and Margaret McGourty '41. On Sunday afternoon, November 17, our first public debate of the season was held. Our opponents were the girls from St. Columbkille's High. After a very lively discussion our afiirmative team surrendered the decision to the visitors. We were ably represented by Claire Kelly, Madeline Tarpey, Yvonne McGarry QCapt.D, and Dorothy Duston, alternate. Over in Brigh- ton, however, a different result took place when our negative team took the laurels from their opponents. Our Victorious mem- bers were Faye Gallimore, Rena Horan, Margaret McGourty CCapt.D, and Florence Ryan, alternate. The following week we engaged in a forensic battle with the girls from Mission I-ligh.We were defeated at home but only by a close two-to-one decision. Our aflir- mative team journeyed to Roxbury and returned after bowing to the negative team from Mission. Two weeks later we met the girls from Our Lady's High School, Newton. We were successful with two victories. In order to choose the highest ranking debater in our school, our aflirmative and negative teams met one evening in Decem- ber to debate our same League topic. Yvonne McGarry was awarded the Cardi- nal O'Connell Gold Medal for Excellence in Debating. Faye Gallimore, a close second, was given honorable mention. Twenty-one schools participated on the diocesan semihnals for girl orators. Our ASSUMPTA representative, Yvonne McGar- ry, was one ofthe three finalists selected at the Sacred Heart, Malden contest. The gen- eral topic of the representatives was Our Land and Our Laffy. At the final symposium held at Mt. Saint Joseph Academy our contestant spoke exceptionally well. Her subject was Mmjylund, Our Lunfyfr Dorm' and Stzrzrrzmfjv. MARGARET MCGOURTY MARGARET P.

What is the significance of Maryland as Our Lady's Dower and the Land of Sanctu- ary? When the first English came to these shores, sailing under the Italian Cabots, England was, in her own conception, Our Lady's special realm, Our Lady's Dower. When an Englishman in fifteen hundred made his written testament, he began it true to English custom, First, I bequeath my soul to God Almighty and to Our Holy Lady Saint Mary, and to all the fair com- pany of heaven. But before English had come to these shores, really to settle these shores, all this had changed. No longer did England touch the skies where Our Lady ruled. Yet this change seemed destined to make the English Colonies on the other side of the Atlantic, Our Lady's Dower, by transporting here all those who wished to belong to Our Lady. The landing of the pilgrims of New Eng- land has been the theme of many a story. The very rock on which their feet were first planted is consecrated in the estima- tion of their descendants, and its relics are enshrined as objects of holy regard. They were free men in search of freedom, they found it, and transmitted it to their poster- ity. Yet, Whilst we would avoid all con- trasts, and forget the stern spirit of the Puritan, we can turn with exultation, to the pilgrims of Maryland as the founders of religious liberty in the new world. They erected the first altar to it on this contin- ent and the fires first kindled on it as- cended to heaven amid the blessings of the savage Should the memory of such a 48 people pass away from their descendants, as an idle dream? There was established a Marial Colony, Maryland, by Lord Baltimore and his sons. The first land we came to, we called St. Clement's Island, says Father White. It was here that the pilgrims of Maryland first landed. Father White continues, On the day of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Virgin Mary, in the year 1634, we celebrated Mass for the first time on the island. This had never been done before in this part of the world. After we had com- pleted the sacrifice, we took on our shoul- ders a great cross, which we had hewn out of a tree. We then erected a trophy to Christ the Saviour, humbly reciting on our bended knee, the litanies of the Holy Cross. Then, the Ark and the Dove had arrived in Chesapeake Bay, which the Spaniards had dedicated to the Mother of God, a hundred years before. It was then that the colony was given a name, it was Maryland, Our Lady's American Dower. Officially the name was to have been a compliment to Henrietta Maria, Queen of England. Thus, says Bancroft, the Catholics took possession of the little place and re- ligious liberty obtained a home in the little village which bore the name, Saint Mary's. While the colonist of New England plowed his field with his musket on his back, or was aroused from his slumber by the hideous war whoop to find his dwell- ing in flames, the settler of Saint Mary's accompanied the red warrior to the chase, and learned his arts of Woodcraft, and the Indian upon coming to the settlement found a friendly reception and an honest market. If belated, the Indian would wrap himself up in his mantle of skins and lie down to sleep by the white man's fireside, unsuspecting and unsuspected. In 1649 the Maryland Assembly passed the noble act of religious toleration that placed, Maryland so far above her sister colonies and which placed the mantle of charity over all. Maryland had truly be- come the Land of Sanctuary, extending to all those who believe in Christ, shelter, protection, and repose. Never was any government more indulgent to persons of all religious persuasions than that of Maryland, while the Roman Catholic, Lord Baltimore controlled it. Irving Spencer writes, I doubt whether there be older Presbyterian blood in Amer- ica than flows through my veins at this moment, but let us do justice. The govern- ment of Maryland was one of the first or- ganized in Christendom, that made reli- gious toleration a cornerstone. Maryland was intended from the beginning to be the Land of Sanctuary for the oppressed of every creed. The principles of the Land of Sanctuary were to be extended through the sister colonies. The Continental Congress real- ized the need for Maryland's aid. Her rich- est and chief citizen was a Catholic, Charles Carroll of Carrollton. He was in control of Maryland's public opinion and was probably the most urbane man in North America, his signature being added to the Declaration of Independence. Later, Maryland's custom became our first amend- ment, Congress shall make no laws re- specting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Charles Carroll's cousin John was conse- crated the first Bishop in America in a chapel dedicated to Our Lady and the day 49 was the feast of the Assumption. Upon the seal of his diocese was pictured Our Lady surrounded by stars. Under her were the keys of St. Peter. Bishop Carroll's dying words were, I have always been attached to the practice of devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, I have established this devo- tion among my people and I have placed my diocese under her care. Because of Maryland, Our Lady was able to give to America her particular treasure, the Catholic Priesthood. Davis, an Episco- palian, writes of the Catholic Priests of Maryland, Their pathway was through the desert and their first chapel the wig- wam of an Indian. Two of them were here at the dawn of American History, assisted by pious rites in laying the cornerstone of a State, they kindled the torch of civilization in the wilderness, they gave consolation to the grief-stricken pilgrims, they taught the religion of Christ to the simple sons of the Maryland forest. It was a spontaneous act in 1846 when the Sixth Provincial Council of the Church met at Baltimore to tighten the bond be- tween the Church in our country and the Mother of God. Rome then allowed Amer- ica to elect Mary as our patroness under the title of the Immaculate Conception. Our Lady has a direct connection with the annals of Maryland. She stands upon the pinnacle of American History, like a cross upon a Church that scintillates and sparkles. As she looks down, Mary beholds no hills and valleys, rich and mysterious with the holy legends of Europe. She looks upon her children, the poor, the oppressed and rich, free from the tyranny that might harm their religion, she affirms the teach- ing of Christ, while we who need some- thing of heaven, rely on her to act as our queen beautiful and beautifying-to make as she once made colonial Maryland, her Dower and Sanctuary.

As we go back over the years we re- member how the annual oratorical of 1937 found promising speakers in Vincent Quealy, James Moloney, Gerard Donovan, and Brendan Coffey. All these boys parti- cipated in the symposium on The jemit Martyr! of North America. Vincent Quealy foreshadowed the future forensic ability of the class by receiving the second prize. Vincent Quealy, Gerard Donovan, James Moloney, and Brendan Coffey were our representatives in the Annual Prize Debate. The general subject selected for the ora- torical contest during our Sophomore year was The Christian Home. Tryouts gave places to Patrick Kelley, Brendan Coffey, Vincent Quealy and James Madden. Later at the Freshman-Sophomore Contestjames Moloney was judged best orator. The Class of 1941 was not, then, content to rest on the laurels of the Freshman year. The group was to forge the way ahead, in de- bating activity as well. St. Mary's won the division debate championship with the right to compete in the diocesan finals that same year. Coming next to Malden Catholic High we captured the silver medals in second diocesan rank, at a lively debate held at Boston College. Among these successful debaters had been Brendan Coffey, Vincent Quealy and James Moloney. Gerard Donovan and James Madden were also active debaters by this time. When the Annual Prize Debate was con- ducted two representatives of 1941 were eligible. Brendan Coffey won the Cardinal O'Connell Gold Medal. This practical ex- perience was not to go unrewarded. Rev. William McCarthy assigned The Earb History of the Catholic Church as the oratorical subject for 1939. In this annual symposium were james Madden, Maurice Meade, .james Moloney and Brendan Coffey. The respective subjects of the 1941 candidates were: St. Helena and the True Cram, The Harb' Pemecutiorzr, The Catacombs, and Canftantine the Great. The boys deliver- ing these last two subjects took the prizes. James Moloney was awarded the Cardinal O'Connell Medal whereas Brendan Coffey was in second place. We might say that the 1940 League De- bate teams were 'junior teams for every place was assigned to akjunior. This group reported for organized practiceztjohn Don- ovan, James Madden, Maurice Meade, james Moloney, Vincent Quealy and Bren- dan Coffey with .james Madden and Bren- dan Coffey as the co-captains, a position they were to hold for two years. The de- baters were concerned with the pro's and con's of government operation of railroads. Spring of 1940 saw preparations for the annual Prize Debate in which Gerard Don- ovan, John Curry, ,james Moloney, and Brendan Coffey spoke. In winning this de- bate Brendan Coffey became the third stu- dent to win the Cardinal O'Connell Medal for the second time. The able veterans from Senior occupied six of the nine positions in the 1940 ora- torical contest, which had for its general topic: The Church and Peace. The senior con- testants and their subjects were Patrick Kelly, The Church and Peacejjohn Donovan, The Ten Commandmentr, Gateway to Peace,' Vincent Quealy, The Heh Bihle and Peace,' Brendan Coffey, The Hob' Xacrejice of the MaJr,' James Madden, The Cram and Peace: and james Moloney, The I-lab' Ghart and Peace. It was the decision of the judges that john Donovan should receive the first prize, or the Cardinal 0'Connell Gold Medal for Excellence in Oratory and James Madden the Honorable Mention or second prize. John Donovan later represented the school at the Diocesan semifinals and finals held at Boston College The League Debate teams continued with an entire quota from Senior. Return ing to the rostrum for the fourth successive year the team gave promise of an excellent season's work in the discussion of the national topic as to the advisability of in- creasing the Federal powers. The annual debates were held with Mission, Our Lady's, Newton, St. Mary, Waltham, and Cathedral. Climaxing this series of debates was the fact that the Assumpta Society Boys' Teams had won the Diocesan Divi- sion Championship with one debate to take-the Diocesan Final, which was planned for Sunday, May 11, 1941 at the Boston College Tower Building. St. Clem- ent's, Somerville, drew the affirmative side, thus placing the St. Mary's boys on the negative team and permitting our own un- defeated team to continue in the finals. At five-thirty Sunday, May 11, a group of tuxedo-clad debaters returned to Mon- signor and the Sisters bearing the Cardi- nalO'ConnellTrophy andeightgoldC.Y.O. medals. The negative team had persev- ered undefeated through the finals! B.

A well-balanced program of public speaking and dra- matics has made the Seniors of 1941 near professionals at the footlights. This fact was again em- phasized when in September we witnessed the dramatic readings for Monsignor's Feast Day. One of the high lights of the year came in December when the magni- ficent scenes of the Christ- mas Cantata were presented. This year the Madonna and soloist was Elizabeth Cas- sidy '41. The Prologue and Scriptural background was read by John Donovan '41 who had so well represented the school in oratory throughout the year. John Stuart, Claire Baldwin, Rena Horan, Mary Roche, Patricia McCormack, Mil- dred Leader, and Margaret Carmody held other impor- tant roles. In the latter part ofjanu- ary the Senior Class success- fully presented the musical comedy, The Count and the Co- ed, and within that produc- tion another play entitled, The Bellr of Beezujoleeir.

Early in May the Senior Class presented a one-act play entitled The Tantrume. In this instance tryouts showed that Elizabeth Cas- sidy was best fitted for the part of Bunnyg John Stuart played as her brother Tim- my. Margaret Barrett suc- cessfully portrayed the diffi- XQM role of Geneva. The part of Alan was very well done by Gerard Donovan.

We were staunch adherents of the dictum that music is coming more and more into its own. And Well it may! Early in September the Assump- ta Ensemble and the Orchestra with its swelling ranks assembled weekly for that practice which was to make the musical programs for the year delightful and pleas- ing. Sundays in autumn found us tuning up for the girls' league debates. December brought our musical program at the boys' Annual Oratorical Contest here at our own school as well as the Diocesan Prize Debate at Boston College. The combined musical units, Orchestra, Glee Club and the Sanctuary Choir gave the musical interpretation of the pag- eantry during the Christmas Can- tata. January brought our second ven- ture into the production of a musical comedy. The Senior talent was distributed between The Caunf and the Co-ed and The Bellr of Bmuja- luir. Outstanding soloists were Betty Cassidy, Margaret Barrett, and john Donovan. The Senior boys organized the group pictured at the top of this panel and known as the Southern Six. Margaret Kelly '40 was the pianist when the group played at Putterham Meadows, and broad- cast over the radio. It was with much enjoyment that we made the little trips. Spring Concert and re- cital! This was :hc event of im- portance. M. COAKLIZY 55 S Drum Corps The lirst time the Drum Corps met this year was to bid farewell to their beloved director, Rev- erend Michael J. Durant. A Week later Reverend James McManus took over the duties and rehearsals started immediately. Each Mon- day evening from seven until nine the bugles and drums could be heard as the girls endeavored to improve themselves. The Corps marched to many football games and received a hearty welcome from the visitors as well as the home team. Indeed the strains of music often urged the boys to greater victory. The music instructors Mr. Haw- kins and Mr. Grady worked won- ders with the corps this year to produce a medley of some of the well-known operas. About the first of April, Father McManus secured for us the Irvington Street Armory. Every Thursday night the girls practiced under the guid- ance of Sergeant Frank Walker. The members are aiming high this year because they hope to bring back the Diocesan Bugle and Drum Corps Championship in June. After being placed second every year for the past three years it will be a thrill for them if they win the trophy this season as did the Class of 1938. The Senior members of the Corps are: Faye Gallimore, Doro- thy Duston, Mildred Coakley, Virginia White, Ruth Molloy, Mildred D'Argenio, Barbara Ma- han, Mary Burke, and Mary Roche. The members of the Twirl- Virginia Keady Claire Kelly, Eileen Coleman Helen Quealey. FAYE GALLIMORE SLITHP 41 ing Corps are: Faye Gallimore, Glee Clubs Rehearsal at St. Cecelia's hall has become a familiar saying to the one hundred forty-two mem- bers of the Glee Clubs. At the be- ginning of the scholastic year it was arranged to have Girls' Glee Club on Monday afternoon and the Boys' Club on Tuesday. Mar- garet P. McGourty and John V. Curry were elected to the presi- dency of their respective groups. Very successful programs were arranged for the Mothers' Club Social and again at the Christmas Cantatag there were also musical interludes at the League Debates as well as soloistsg and finally there was the Spring Concert held May 25, 1941. Special studio practice brought some excellent musical talent to the foreground. The few privi- leged to be choir soloists were: Dorothy Duston, Barbara Reed, Margaret Barrett, John Donovan, John Stuart, John Oliver and Claire Kelley. judging from the beautiful voices found in the Sanctuary Choir and the excellent knowledge of music prevailing in that group there will be talented singers in Brookline for years to come. The spring concert and musical included forty-six numbers among which the outstanding numbers were: Ave Maria, Girls' Glee Clubg The Mamzrtefjy Garden by the Boys' Glee Club and Sanctuary Choirg Negra Spirituulr by the Boys' Glee Clubg Flower Clmrur by the Girls' Glee Clubg and Unfold Ye Parmlf by the combined Glee Clubs. The Southern Six played popular melodies and the Senior Soloists brought the 1940-1941 music season to a fitting and beau- tiful climax. JOHN IJONUVAN llllll Sports . . . Floodlight Game . . .

Those who survived these weeks of arduous training were the lads who carried the colors of blue and gold, under the capable leadership of Captainjoe Curry to the greatest season of the football team has ever enjoyed. Among Captain joe's classmates reporting for grid practice were Maurice Meade, James Hartnett, 'Iohn Curry, John Stuart, Joseph johnson, john Donovan, james Madden, Thomas Flanagan and James Burns. On September 12, the boys journeyed to Haverhill, to unoflicially open the 1940 season with a floodlight game against St. james High, the alma mater of Coach Moynihan. Although decidedly the under- dog against this football juggernaut of the North Shore, the Saints, stunned a ca- pacity throng by setting this bigger and heavier team down, 6-0. A timely pass from Griffin to Burke accounted for the margin of victory. The game was featured by ter- ritic blocking of Gabby Hartnett. En- couraged by this win, the team knocked the lid off the Catholic League by sub- merging the St. Charles to the tune of 6-0, 4500 SEE NIGHT TILT Ufmurt fast-.rtepping St. Muryfr High of Brookline, which feuturef Jpeed infteud of Jtruight power, continued undefeated, und un- tied in the 1940 Catholic-League Race, toppling Wulthurn St. Murj1'f 24 to 6 in u floodlight gume ut Victory Field, Watertown, luft night.

The .rtudent hund und hugle drum corpf from Brookline provided un excellent murieul interlude at the hulf und udded color to the feftieul with its glittering gold helmets und crimron caper. on an end sweep by Jim Burns. The Saints then traveled to Concord, N. H. to play a big and powerful St. John's High. al- though outplayed throughout the game the Concord team squeezed out a scoreless tie. By this time the boys were looking for- ward to the floodlight game at Victory held against St. Mary's Waltham. Last year the Waltham team tucked it on the boys by a big score. The stage was set for a real grudge game. Receiving last-minute r instructions, the boys took the held deter- mined to keep their slate clean. The game, which was pretty even throughout the first quarter, was gaping wide open when Jim Burns sprinted sixty-eight yards down the sideline to score. Before the final whistle, the wealthy towners had scored three times more on runs by Tom Flanagan, John Donovan, and the Curry brothers to emerge a 24-6 winner. This game was featured by the fine play of the line and especially the terrific blocking of Tom Burns and Jack Mclnerney, Husky tackles. Football Cathedral, the next opponent on the Saints schedule proved an easy 13-O vic- tory as Gabby Hartnett trucked ninety- five yards to score. Butch Flanagan ploughed over for the second tally. Once again fierce blocking and tackling was featured in a game by Brookline's aggres- sive line. The champs from Malden Catholic were next and although out- played through most of the game, they were able to capitalize on a few breaks to turn the locals back, 9-0. Even in defeat the end play of Jim Madden and Bud Curry was outstanding. Time and time again they stopped the Malden backs for losses and cut down the opposing linemen with savage blocks. Perturbed by this setback the team wal- loped Mission on Armistice Day 19-O be- fore twelve thousand fans at Fen Sta- dium. Ed Hurley, Bernard Fleming and Gov Colgan, who incidentally proved to be the keyman in the line throughout the season, were spectacular. The Saints ended their season when they stacked up against the powerhouse from Lowell, Keith Academy. This game was a heartbreaker as they were edged out, 10-7, in the last few minutes of play. John Donovan, Gov Colgan, Tom Burns and Pete McMahon were outstanding for the home team. The school was honored by placing three men on the All-Catholic team, thus climaxing a great season. Those players honored were john Curry, John Mclnerney, and James Burns. With the nucleus of a good 1940 team back, the school will be looking forward for a championship club in 1941. JAMES BURNS Josapn CURRY Featuring T. Flanagan, W. Burke, F. Kenney, Curry and T. Burns 62 Boys' Basketball One phase of cooperation in the making of liner Catholic Citizens is the training required for the all-important basketball team. Some may think that the task of coaching a quintet is not difficult but in order to have a fast-moving, mentally- alert type of club there must be cooperation on the part of every member. This teamwork and technique of the squad was shown at our initial practice at the gymnasium. The lettermen of last year had elected Thomas Flanagan, Captain. Last year he made All-Catholic and was assigned to center position by the vote of the League coaches. It was he who led us on during the early days of the 1941 season. After the lirst game, a victory for the fast-breaking outfit of St. Mary's, the Lawrence School gymnasium was opened to the team for practice work. The home games were played at the large Brookline Municipal Gymnasium thus allowing the players to display their talents more ex- tensively. As the season advanced the slap of the ball and the swish of the strings was a beautiful tune for the followers of a prom- ising crop of loopsters. The participants in the eventful Mission classic were: Captain Tom Flanagan, Gov Colgan, Frank Kenney, joe Curry, Pete McMahon and Tom Burns ourjunior who certainly made a name for himself. The capable subs were: Jim Moloney, Jim Madden, Joe johnson, George and Tommy Duffy. As the schedule progressed, Frank Kenney became the star. By a unanimous vote of the players he was elected captain for 1942. The last two games for the blue and gold soon came, those with St. Mary's of Waltham and Our Lady's, Newton. It was truly a great victory for our boys to finish the season by taking the victories from these two teams amid a fine display of teamwork and sportsmanship. JOSEPH CURRY Baseball The call for baseball was received with much enthusiasm and planning by both Coach Moynihan and the players. With the return of eight veterans Jim Burns, Vin Quealy, Tom Burns, Tom Flanagan, 'lim Moloney, Joe Curry, Frank Kenney, Ed Hurley, and a newcomer, Dave Conlin, a successful season was virtually assured. Of course, the team was built around Captain .lim Burns, the nucleus of the pitching staff. St. Mary's promises to be very potent at the bat with such thumpers as jim and Tom Burns, Ed Hurley, ,lim Moloney, Bill Kenneyhloe Curry, and Vin Quealy provid- ing the spark. The opening game found St. Mary's go- ing down to defeat at the hands of Cathe- dral by a score of three to one, although jim Burns covered himself with glory, fan- ning eighteen and allowing but three hits. The second game saw the Blue and Gold array topple Our l..ady's from the top of the heap as Jim Burns and Dave Conlin set down the visitors with but six hits, while ,lim Moloney and Ed Hurley were setting the pace for the local nine. The third game on the roster found the high-school nine journeying to Waltham where they defeated the highly touted St. Mary's team by a score of fifteen to four. jim Moloney again set the pace by his heavy hitting while Jim Burns kept seven hits well scattered and fanned fifteen. May 15 saw the season half over with the win and loss column displaying four victories and four defeats for a five hundred average. As the second half gets underway we look for the Blue and Gold outfit to bounce back and keep the leading ball teams on their toes. Coach Moynihan's boys have been termed by sports writers as the hard luck team of the circuit. Hence, we expect to see St. Mary's regain their winning ways this half and be a real con- tender for top honors. V1NcENT QUEALY l63l nihan, Captain Burns, Curry, T. Burns H. Meade, W. Burke, E.

The whole team is to be congratulated as it would be impossible to single out any one individual for special praise. To all who took part in the League this year, we offer a world of congratulation for the spirit, in- terest, and loyalty, shown in this undertaking of a girls' basketball league.

Horan, Carnival Queen 661 Winter Carnival The temperature had been ac- tually at freezing point for three continuous days. The snow was piled high after the record storm of 1941. We had been awaiting all thisffor a Winter Carnival. Through the courtesy of the Brookline Fire Department, Chief Allen and Mr. Martin Meehan, father of the President of the Freshman Class, the lield was cleared by the huge plows. On two successive nights the iield was flooded, While the zero weather assured us of ice and our carnival. Then came the hanging of the multi-colored lights, the erection of a toboggan slide by piling up the already high drifts of snow. There was imported for the oc- casion, a quaint-looking sleigh, soon bedecked for the carnival queen. Vincent Quealy, the capable chairman of the aiiair, had ar- ranged for skating to music, broadcast from the school, exhibi- tion skating, a lively hockey game under banners of blue or red. The Bonnie Blues won! Then the Senior girls skated by the review- ing stand and the Judges: Rev. William Reilly, Chief of Police Tonra, Mr. James Jordan and Mr. james Whooley. Of course l was thrilled when l heard my name called as Carnival Queen. About ten-thirty we thronged to the gym for delicious salad sandwiches, jelly doughnuts and hot chocolate. Then followed rol- ler skating in the gym, informal dancing for those who preferred it or for many, still more skating. lt was a gala nightfa landmark in the history of 1941.

Let us go novv, in retrospect to the time when the staunch and sturdy pillars of today were just beginning to be fashioned. What do we see? A group of happy, eager boys and girls are walking slowly, yes, even reverently, towards the sacred walls of St. Mary's. Day by day, the new Freshmen are becoming more ac- customed to their dignihed surroundings. Day by day, their Freshman pride seems to be diminishing, and in its place we hnd a most lovable humility, the first step toward strengthening their spiritual life. This particular morning, election of officers took place within the Freshmen classes. The upperclassmen gazed approvingly on On with the game! Q 76 our selections: joseph Walsh, President, Dorothy Duston, Vice-President, Ruth Holland, Secretary, while the trouble- some task of being Class Treasurer was assigned to Vincent Quealy. Under their capable leadership the Freshman Class prepared to demonstrate to the school an exceptional ability in all fields. Dorothy Duston displayed her power very excellently in the spelling bee, when she returned from Faneuil Hall as the Champion Freshman Speller of the Diocese. All St. Mary's assembled to proclaim her a true heroine. Up, up, goes the pride of our class, but this is a truly justifiable pride in the achievements of our classmates. Betty Cassidy won a gold medal for excellence in oratory, with Faye Gallimore and Rena Horan running a close second and third. We were well represented by our boys too, for Vincent Quealy was awarded second prize in the boys' oratorical contest. Now we are really proving to those upperclass- men just what the Class of '41 can do! In June, the Band and Bugle Corps won the Cardinal O'Connell Trophy for the third successive year. Happy days as Freshmen closed in June leaving the Class of 1941 with an enviable list of orators, artists, musicians, and the successful presentation of a one-act play under the direction of the teachers from Emerson College. The seven pillars of history were slowly rising. At the end of our first year we had placed the foundation of our high school history in religion, by our courses and Sodality Conferences, in the fine arts, by music, painting and draw- ing, in public speaking, by debate and oratory, in athletics, by promising repre- sentatives in the four major sports for boys and girls, and finally in drill and a practical knowledge of the music for Band, Bugle and Drum Corps. SOPHOMORE YEAR Summer days passed at the beach or the country and then we were answering the drummers' call to assembly once more. The enthusiastic second-year students assembled for their all-important polls which counted high forjohn Stuart, Presi- dentg Margaret McGourty, Vice-President, Ruth Holland, Secretary, and joseph johnson, Treasurer. Leaders and classmen alike were ready for a year of intellectual and social activity. We made our initial appearances at Father McCarthy's lectures on Goodnerr, the first of a series of three courses. The Sodality Conferences began in September and were centered about the general topic There Three. The boys had already reported for foot- ball practice, and they were submitting to the daily grind for the school team under banners of blue and gold. The pillar of history that we made in oratory and debating was hrmly grounded even though the material was only second- year quality. The December Oratorical Contest The Chrirrmn Home included four members of 1941: Vincent Quealy, Patrick Kelly, Brendan Coffey and James Madden. Faye Gallimore and Margaret McGourty were on the girls' debating teams which took divisional honors and later the Diocesan trophy on January 22, 1939. There were four speakers on the boys' divisional championship debating team as well, John Donovan, Brendan Coffey, James Madden and Vincent Quealy. Bren- dan surprised some of his colleagues in the Prize Debate when he won the Gold Medal, a sort of foreshadowing of his later vic- tories for the same honor as a Junior and in Oratory as a Senior. Faye Gallimore, Mildred Coakley, Vir- ginia White, Christine Coleman, Mildred D'Argenio, Mary Burke, Patrick Kelly, Vincent Quealy, John Donovan, Gerard Donovan and Maurice Meade were among 77 the talented members of the Assumpta Ensemble playing at debates and gradua- tion exercises. Sophomore classes closed and we found ourselves hostesses to the Seniors for their Communion Breakfast or we were gather- ing daisies out in the country for the daisy chain. We saw our sister class graduated. JUNIOR YEAR Fast, fleeting months of summer passed and we were once more returning to St. Mary's this time to assume the new dig- nity of being called ' Juniors. We mounted the steps already assuming the dignity of upperclassmen. A call from the football coach revealed that john Donovan, Thomas Flanagan, James Hartnett, james Madden, John Cur- ry, Joseph Curry and james Burns were all adding to the strength of the football team. Among the Girls' Basketball players we recall Yvonne McGarry and Helen Melville as important assets to a record- breaking team. Gratorical Winners Donovan Madden Betty Cassidy and Yvonne were the new members of the Girls' Debating Team while Faye Gallimore and I returned once more to delve deeply into the pro's and con's of the Patman Bill. The early weeks of school brought a new series of conferences from Rev. Wil- liam J. McCarthy entitled The Armor of Light. Closely correlated to this was the series of lectures on the second part of the inscription on the school seal, Knowledge. Early in November, orations were as- signed for the boys' annual symposium with The Eurbf Christian Church as its gen- eral subject. Two Juniors received the honors: james Moloney, the Cardinal O'Connell Medal, and Brendan Coffey, the second award. The juniors were well represented at the Bazaar, the Junior girls sang in the Christmas Cantata, not a few attended the YEARBOOK Party in January as Well as the Senior play Lucky Winner. In the American Legion District Ora- torical contest, Vincent Quealy was given highest rank among nine representatives from other schools. We are very proud of these students for the honor which they have brought to St. Mary's. Now, just what were those tunes which our classmates hummed in the presence of the other members of the school? Such a simple solution! They were the songs which were to be heard in the Junior Pro- duction, Mir: Blue Eyes. Rehearsal, re- hearsal, rehearsal! The sound of that word is still ringing in my ears! But here it is the night of our production, and here come our star performers ready to give their all to their audience. James Madden, Betty Cassidy, John Donovan, Margaret Barrett, Faye Gallimore, Helen Melville, Patrick Kelly, Mary Mahoney, Gerard Donovan, Jean Good, Brendan Coffey, Pauline Sulli- van Joseph Curry and Margaret McGourty made up our splendid cast. All good things must come to an end however, and the formance of Mus Blue Eyes. 4 curtain fell unwillingly on the last per- 78 It is another Monday night and out seniors are enjoying themselves amidst all the gaiety and splendor of the banquet given to them by the Juniors. Farewell speeches and tear-filled eyes serve to re- mind us that there is but one short year left for us as students of St. Mary's. SENIOR YEAR The pillars of the 1941 history have been rising slowly. Upon three pillars will be entwined the laurel wreath to symbolize our three diocesan championships in spell- ing, debating and girls' basketball. We re-enforced the foundation of the seven pillars when we returned as Seniors to our Religion lectures on Dircipline and our Children of Mary conferences, entitled The Knightr of God. The Art Club was organized early in autumn and the exhibition of material at the Catholic Youth Congress included oil paintings, pastoral scenes, etchings and drawings as well as hand-painted vases. The boys' and girls' divisions of the Assumpta Society began their work in October with the characteristic zeal and interest of champion debaters and orators. Soon we were arranging the YEARBOOK pictures of the Little Flower Pageant in which Helen Melville, Patricia McCor- mack and Margaret Carmody had the principal roles. That same afternoon the Ynannooxc photographer assembled Cap- tain Joseph Curry and his football heroes for a pose picture outside the Harvard Street door. As Coach Moynihan left for Griggs field with his charges, Coach jor- dan appeared with the girls' basketball teams and they, too, had a group picture. Captain Kelley of Saint Patrick's, Rox- bury, arrived with her team and a lively which gave the outdoor game ensued photographer many an opportunity for a candid shot. This was the first week in October-the extracurricular activities were now in progress. Strains of music came from St. Cecelia's Hall, and drums were beating under Mr. Hawkins' direction. Twirlers were in the gymnasium with Faye Gallimore, the 1941 Drum Major. Glee Clubs and Bugle and Drum Corps were stepping into rank. Another pillar of 1941 history was mounting high-dramatics. The Chrirtmar Cantata combined the musical and dra- matic ability of the Seniors in a very re- ligious and practical way. December also witnessed the Boys' Oratorical Contest on The Church and Peace with John Donovan and James Madden as winners. At the girls' Prize Debate, Yvonne McGarry and Faye Gallimore were the winning contestants. What was the event of January 19 and 20? The Senior musical productions-The Count and the Co-ed and The Bells of Beau- jolais featuring Margaret Barrett, Betty Cassidy, Dorothy Duston, Margaret Mc- Gourty, Yvonne McGarry, Rena Horan, John Stuart, James Madden and Patrick Kelly. Histrionic ability also appeared in the Senior one-act play The Tantrumr starring Betty Cassidy and Gerard Dono- van. The two sturdy Senior stars who helped to build our athletic history were the grid- iron heroes who made All-Catholic- James Burns and John Curry. Yvonne McGarry, captain of the Diocesan Cham- pionship Girls' Basketball Team was also named All-Catholic. After the spring vacation we bent our efforts to make history by the Senior Prom. James Madden, Prom Marshal, assisted by an able executive committee made the affair a cultural and social suc- cess. An assembly in May brought the ofhcial announcement by our Monsignor, that Faye Gallimore was Valedictorian and Patrick Kelly, Salutatorian. Firmly estab- lished now was the pillar of debating, for the boys had won the diocesan champion- ship the previous day. Monsignor and Father McCarthy gave very impressive talks to the students at this assembly. We anticipated our graduation by re- ceiving degrees at the Junior Zeppelin Informal. Rehearsals were also in order for the Musical Concert, May 25. Mildred D'Argcnio and John Stuart directed the Glee Clubs. john Donovan, John Stuart and Dorothy Duston were soloists, Mil- dred Coakley played with her sister Barbara, the Southern Six played melodies and the beautiful tableaux included Mil- dred D'Argenio, Rena Horan, Brendan Coffey and John Stuart. Violinists in The Dream of the Shepherdetr were Faye Galli- more and Virginia White. Under the beautiful sky of that same day we marched in honor of Our Blessed Lady to her Crowning Ceremony. Mildred Leader was May Queen and Margaret McGourty her attendant. The pillars of 1941 history had been erected high. Inscribed aloft upon the pillars of religion was Goodnert, Dircipline and Knowledge. Commencement Week would bring Class Day, the Senior Ban- quet, Recollection Day, Communion Breakfast, Graduation, and as Alumni for a day, the Senior Picnic at Salisbury and Ye Cock and Kettle Inn. The pillars of the 1941 history remain, monuments of love and devotion to St. Mary's.

DOROTHY H01 A. DUSTON Ivy Oration Within the shadow of the cross-crowned church where dwells our Leader and our great Exemplar, Christ-we gather to pay our tribute of tender affection and sincere gratitude to our beloved Alma Mater. In our expressions of praise today, we wish to symbolize our token of esteem and reverence in this little ivy plant-a fitting symbol of our aspirations to all that is highest and best in life. As this frail green vine will grow and flourish into a thing of beauty, revealing the love- liness of God's own handiwork, so will our souls, carefully moulded and guided in these formative years of training in Saint Mary's High School, grow strong and beautiful in time to come. And just as through sleet and rain and cutting wind, the sturdy little ivy will survive, so will our powers of mind and body withstand the cruel blasts of worldly ambition and the attacks of unptincipled men and women whom we shall meet along the road of life. In this war-torn world of today, may we be a power for good, a comfort to those in distress, may we remain calm and con- fident in the face of trial and danger, and may we be possessed of firmness of will and strength of character when the test will come,-as come it must,-to each and every one of us in the Class of 1941. 81 As the tiny sprig of tender green ivy grows to larger proportions, covering the age-old oak or the unlovely and crumbling edifice with its rich green mantle, so may our lives, nurtured here with fine Catholic principles, make beautiful a world of decadence and ugliness because of the sor- did deeds of men. Today we pledge our loyalty to Saint Mary's-to her teachings, to the ideals set before us each day-lofty ideals of noble living, steadfastness in faith, and courage in the face of duty. We have learned daily the lessons of sanctity, and of purposeful living, we have been kept all through our school days, close, very close to the Heart of Christ, Christ the All-Beautiful. May we in the ever changing years that are to come, cling to our Master and Friend, may we treasure the lessons we have learned from the devoted Priests and Sisters, and as we gaze, perhaps with tear- ful eye, into the future, veiled as it is from us now, may we remember the little ivy plant symbolizing today our best hopes, our promises,-fidelity to the good, the true and the beautiful in life-fidelity to our country and to God. MARGARET BARRETT Salutator This evening, as we close one of the most important and most enjoyable chapters of our life, we open a more serious and more complicated one, that of facing a world re- plete with false doctrines, a world bur- dened by a conflict that has swept thous- ands of homes and individuals into the common sea of ruin and misery. Indeed, if we trace back to the time of Noah and the flood the long and sorrowful sequence of misfortunes that mark the stages of man's earthly pilgrimage, it would be quite hard to find material distress so deep and so uni- versal as that which we are now experienc- ing. Even the greatest scourges that left indelible traces on the lives and memories of mankind struck only one nation at a time, but, now, on the contrary, the whole world is bound by the calamity. Commun- ism, Fascism, and Democracy are all struggling to gain control of this earth, and each one is against the other two. Yes, on this commencement evening, our Alma Mater sends us forth into the center of this battle, for we are one of the prizes sought. We are the ones, whom the leader of each political group will want on his side. The final choice, whether it be the godless governments or Christian Democ- racy, lies with us. As American youth, we accept this challenge and fearlessly re- spond to preserve democracy. For the past one hundred and fifty years it has been pro- tected by our forefathers from all kinds of danger. At this present time, these very same blessings of liberty and conscience are striving for an existence in the war-torn old world. The responsibility of its preser- vation now rests with us, the youth of America. And lest we forget, America will remain free only as long as we, and we alone, have what it takes to keep it free. minutes that we may consider Our Training or Demacmq with which we are so well Thus, it is well to pause here for a few f . l32l equipped to keep aflame the torch of liberty. On all sides we hear the voice of our fellow man calling out: What is freedom? What is this democracy which we are de- fending? Ah yes, my friends, the striking feature of the entire chaotic situation in the World is this: no one seems to realize how much bearing the Catholic Church has on the maintenance of this democracy. Look around the world today and study the different functions of the various gov- ernments. Study Communism, Fascism, Nazism, all are possessed with the same underlying principles. Like a star in the heavens, the United States stands out in the midst of all these godless governments, it stands out as the one and only ideal form of government in this pagan world, for it is established on that sacred dogma of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. Today, more than ever, a democratic form of government, such as ours, de- mands a special training of its citizens in civic affairs. Moreover, if human rights and duties are to be regarded, and if the State is to respect the moral rights of the people, it must fall back upon the spiritual nature of man and the sanctions of Al- mighty God. Thus, in Democracy, Catho- lic Action must be given a prominent posi- tion in order that the youth of today can become acquainted with the rules of Divine Law and with the understanding of civic virtues. Towards this end, the Catholic Church has labored intensely with her zeal and facility for training in leadership. Catho- licism not only provides us with an educa- tion in the elements of right-thinking, Christian Doctrine, and good example, but it also pays particular attention to those who have extraordinary talent, and in- spires them to continue the development under Catholic Culture. It gives them the ambition and the advantage of attaining the highest ranks of distinction, authority, and social usefulness. In treating this subject, however, we cannot possibly confine ourselves to the belief that Catholic Education stresses only the intellect. More concretely, train- ing for democracy means character train- ing, consideration of others, respect for authority, forming the habits of self-de- nial. Wherever we go today, we find that man has a false idea of freedom. He would allow himself to do as he wished, regard- less of anyone or anything else. Ah, but how sadly mistaken he is, for this is not the true conception of liberty, this is a license which no man among men should have the right to exercise. According to the Catholic system of Ed- ucation, and according to the laws set down by God, true freedom is obtained only when man recognizes and adheres to truth and justice. His free will, which gives him the ability to choose a suitable course in life, is so developed in our paro- chial schools as to help him recognize this inheritance. This teaching may be well epitomized in the Catholic teachings: the object of the will is good, the object of the intellect is truth. Even our cherished gift of liberty is derived from the Savior, and consequently, the one, true use of the great gift is to please Him by doing His will through which we may merit salvation. For this reason, anything that helps us approach this end is not an infringement of our democratic rights, but rather a perfec- tion of them. Upon this same basis, also, is placed our training in habits of self-denial and coop- eration. In the past there has probably been too much emphasis on the idea of privileges and too little on the idea of duty. As a result, man has sometimes failed 83 Xvrwif l to develop the sense of responsibility. But now, into this unfavorable condition, where obedience and order were nonex- istent, the Catholic Church has quietly entered. Its training in responsibility, has been carried throughout the land. Yes, in this democracy, where citizens enjoy a maximum of personal liberty, it is essential for orderly, Christian living, this is why rules and regulations are necessary, not to impede us, but rather to help us control our evil inclinations and form a more perfect democracy. Indeed, our civic and religious liberties, which have been purchased for us at a very tremendous cost, can be easily lost again. In order to prevent just this, the Catholic system of Education, such as we of the Class of 1941 have received at St. Mary's, has trained the youth of America in the true meaning and functions of our democracy. It has taught us to hold aloft the torch of truth and justice. What lessons it gives to this war-torn world! What inspirations, to those who seek the key for maintaining a true democracy! Ah yes, my friends, were the standards of this excellent education heeded by all men, this world would not be desolate, today, but as things now are, violence and disorder have been made the supreme law, and the result is fruitless. We, the younger generation of today, have learned the true standards of living. Let us in turn teach our fellow man. Let us put this standard, as it were, on a pedestal, for all the war-torn world to contemplate, and to ponder. Only then can our work of pre- serving a Democracy become life's greatest contribution to mankind. Only then will it remain to win for us that sublime gift of God, that fruit of all our good works, that desire of all well-disposed souls, that Eternal Democram in Heaven. SSUTTI I Valedictory PILLARS OF FREEDOM What was the appeal made to Pope Pius XII after his Coronation? It was an appeal for spiritual leadership made by non- Catholics and Catholics alike. This must have come as a particularly encouraging evidence of good will to this holy man. There is urgent need for the closer spiritual brotherhood of all persons Who believe in democratic and Christian processes, whose motto, like that of the great Saint Augus- tine is In essentials unity, in non-essen- tials liberty, in all things, Charity. It is upon principles of good government and the development of moral considerations and ethical values in politics that Catholic action must direct its attention. Our polit- ical life and legal professions require men of the highest calibre, unselfish men, men of good principles and vision. They need also a citizenry willing to place the com- mon good before private gain, intent upon justice in social and civic life, interested in political issues, and vigilant of the men confided with positions of trust. Our na- tion mufr rest on the pillars of freedom. The pillars of freedom are religion, morality, unity, liberty and charity. The first of these, religion, has been ignored in many nations and a so-called cult of race and nation has superseded it. Within this cult we find a tendency toward individual expression or corporate and group life, in- dependent of State organisms. The balance between freedom and au- thority, rights and duties, justice and suf- ferance, realization and patience, lies in the hands of the people only so long as they show themselves capable of assuming re- sponsibility and acting with harmony and tolerance This calls not only for good Will, but also for democratic attitudes,education and deeply rooted habits which we call civil virtue 84 Repeated warning and agitation against Fascism and Communism are not enough to maintain the pillars of freedom and Dem- ocracy. Nor shall we maintain our institu- tions by making war upon alleged totali- tarian regimes abroad or blindly accepting the term Democracy wherever it is offered. Our task is rather that of rooting ourselves in fundamentals, and, upon this basis, of contributing actively and vigor- ously to the coordination of all classes of society in the band of Christian Brother- hood. The process of Americanization in con- formity with Christian principle should not mean the loss or abandonment of the human ties and cultural backgrounds of the Old World. Nor need it signify a brusque flattening of all social factors or a headlong letting-down of all barriers between the races. As a matter of fact, there is not much danger of this in any event. But it should mean a realization that Democracy is not promoted by sustaining the antag- onism of social, national, racial group dif- ferences or by regarding these groups as the foundation of American social life and political structure and constantly referring to them as minorities. It is true that Church and State are in two different spheres, so far as their origin, objectives and to a large extent their methods are concerned. Nevertheless, the Church as providing the body of religious belief, keeping alive in men's hearts and minds the conviction of God's existence and knowledge of the moral law, preach- ing the spiritual equality of men, and pro- viding the moral foundations of human rights and duties, is definitely the Pillar of Democracy. Wherever its freedom of ac- tivity has been curtailed, wherever it has been persecuted and placed under civil dis- abilities, the result has been a loss for civic society. The price of liberty is eternal watchful- ness. There is no party or group who do not require constant vigilance. A great deal of the political mismanagement and civic corruption, which citizens are in- clined to bemoan when it is too late, can be laid to their inactivity, lack of public interest and to their willingness to leave the entire business of government to those who have gained control of the offices of power of the country, city, state and na- tion. Freedom of speech and of the press as co- adjutors of our educational system, can be used to clarify issues, tell the truth and in- spire to better living, or can become an in- strument of selfish propaganda, confusion, falsehood, intolerance and vicious social warfare largely as the people determine or allow. It is not the amount of freedom and education that determines their content and direction. This can lead to tyranny as well as to the guarantees of rights and can prove a curse as well as a blessing. Cultural freedom can be trusted to sus- tain Democracy only so long as the pillar rests upon the foundation of a spiritual concept of man and society. A pagan, atheistic Democracy is a contradiction in terms. Only where religion is allowed to flourish can there be taught the true basis of human liberty and moral checks be placed upon the development of State abso- lutism. Fortunately, this has been keenly recognized in the United States. Liberty is productive of good only inso- far as it follows and respects the due course of rights and duties. As the grant of a democratic society, it is a dutiful and faith- ful social servant, only insofar as it aban- dons whims and devotes itself to right order. Democracy, like the mystical body of Christ, to which it may well be compared, is composed of many interdependent mem- bers. Like any solid organic structure, it is supported and held together, not by a series of makeshift compromises, but by sound and well-planned foundations and interlocking parts. The whole cannot do without the parts, or the superstructure without the pillars. It is towards the maintenance of these pillars upon the sound rock foundations of human dignity and divine sanctions that Catholics must pledge themselves-that through the service of our fellow man, whom we must love as ourselves, we may attain the full stature of sons of God and heirs of heaven-that through the example of peace, compassion, and universal bounty this nation shall under God in the words of Lincoln, have a new birth of freedom. It is therefore, to a high sense of Chris- tian principle and responsibility to God that we must appeal increasingly, both to the general public and to the governing ofiicials. In this effective inspiration Chris- tianity and the Catholic Church will show themselves the strongest supports of right order, justice and functioning democracy. Only in the teachings of Catholicism do we find the lasting pillars of freedom. FAYE F. GALLIMORE 86 Drama Making up the princi- pals of The Conn! and flve Co-ed Cast.

MARY HARRINOTON MEDITATION Lord, how they pierced Thy hands that night on Calvagfs summit crowned, And how they scorned and laughed and jeered when Thou didst fall upon the ground. They saw Thy Face 'neath a blood-stained crown, and they gazed on Thy Bleeding Hands, But, dear Lord, it caused them not a sigh, those guardsmen in command. If I could take out just one nail, and soothe Thy aching Brow I should gladbf do it all for Thee-in this medi- tation hour,' But I'll live again those sorrouful days in sympathy for Thee, By acts of self-denial, kindliness and love and true humility.

Wereyou to say, Friend, I believe in you, You can do what others have done, I should make an attemptAa manb try, And continue until I had won.
