DEDICATED to May A, Graham President of St. Mary's College Alumni Association HW I5I he Theme This Book Flight of Time Each year is like a changing flower. Like petals, pale or colored free. The days drop softly, hour by hour And leave rich seeds of memory. CONTENTS BOOK ONE AUTUMN : BOOK TWO WINTER BOOK THREE SPRING BOOK FOUR SUMMER ▼ In Memoiiam Autumn at St. Mary's The melancholy days are come— Of -wailing -winds and naked woods and meadows brown and sere. The saddest of the year. Winter Earth's spotless robe of glistening purity No cloud above, no earth belo-vv, A universe of sky and snow The year's at the Spring Whether we look or 'whether we listen. We hear life murmur or see it glisten. And not a breath crept through the rosy air. And yet the forest leaves seemed stirred with prayer. Springtime comes to Sleepy Hollow t June Days at St. Mary's And -what is so rare as a day in June? Then, if ever, come perfect days. Ave Maria! blessed be the hour. The time, the clime, the spot ' 'Neath smiling June skies The best of friends must part A dm inistratum The Flight of Time Swift is the flight of time! Perpetual youth. First child of God triune, unchangeable. He marches through the ages. Magician great. Grotesque he carves the mountain tops, usurps The mighty ocean, toys with sturdy oaks And mocks the centuries. Himself unchanged. Swift as the shooting star, his shadow falls Upon the DIAL,—the clock of life that marks Great golden moments, precious hours for men. —Joseph P. Melchiors, S. J. RKV. FRANCIS J. O'HKRN. S. J. 'The Presidents Message HTHE Flight of Time is the theme of our Year Book. As the shallows of life’s evening lengthen many a man has wished that he could pour back the sands of the hour glass and watch them flow again. But the sands that have flown like the hours they mark are beyond recall. Hearken, then, to the age-old but ever timely advice: Carf c diem. If you have work to do, do it now while it is still day. for “the night cometh when no man can work.” The Dean's Message Loyalty npMIS word seems to lit the members of the DIAL ANNUAL. They have given un-stintingly of their time, their talents, their recreation and leisure. Behind the work which we admire, lies the motive which we honor. Loyalty is active devotion to an ideal, and its ultimate test is sacrifice. W hat a man thinks of his family, his friends, his country, his church is measured by what he is willing to give in proof of his love. The year book is the response of the staff to this test. Rev. John Danlhy, S. J. Ruse L’S Father Danihy in his office The Principal's Message U. v. William J. Tniry. S. J. An Earnest Effort “ Earnest Effort”—whether or not it be crowned with success—that is what counts in the lives of our boys of today if they are to become the worthwhile men of to-morrow. With notably few exceptions the High School students have manifested that spirit of earnest effort and hence it is, with confidence that our prayer will be granted, that we say to our Graduates—‘‘God Speed You. and to all our bovs. “God Bless You. ’ I’agi- Father Tracy at his desk REV.

In September 1928. an expectant group of eighty-seven Freshmen passed under Memorial Arch to begin or renew their school life at St. Mary’s. Many of them were members of the 28 academic class, but they were for the most part, new boys. Soon they were to be seen figuring prominently in all branches of student activity. On the athletic field, the class of ’32 was represented by capable and versatile athletes. The fight and spirit they exhibited will long be remembered. In oratory and dramatics the Freshmen established an enviable record. In social events they showed a grace and ease of which we arc justly proud. They took to scholastic pursuits eagerly and were well represented in all intercollegiate and intramural contests. A backward glance down the vista of days and weeks and months reveals one of the happiest years of our lives. The friendships formed, the many happy occasions and the honors won will long be cherished by the Class of '32. Pago 3$ JAMES J. HEYBERN— Jimmie” 1630 Grand Ave.. Fori Smith. Ark. Sodality, K. of C..

Page 15 First High A September 7. when Autumn had already ushered in its melancholy days, we assembled for the first time in Room 202 to begin our freshman year of High School. We were a forlorn and forsaken lot, but after a short while we began to feel those balmy days that have gladdened us throughout the year. Under the able guidance of our instructors we soon realized that the year was not to be a dead affair, but a time of work and intense activity. Visits to the “Office” began early. Father Welfle led us through the devious ways of Latin. Algebra, and Religion: Mr. Loft us and Mr. Kelly by brushing off the dust showed us the beauties of Ancient History: and Coach Stringer added to our physical welfare by his course in Sanitation and Hygiene. To each of these men we are deeply indebted and wish to express our thanks. Karly in the year we elected Fred C ullen class president and Thomas Fitzgerald vice-president. They have deserved well of us. In mid-year we were amalgamated with First l to form one of the largest classes in school. We have had but few mishaps during the year, and we hope our successors in Room 202 will enjoy their days as much. Fred Cullen I’resilient Dunaway, Frey. Delehant, Stiles, Kick Roney, Glynn. Murphy.

Uiubv Cage First High B SCARCELY had the fleeting summer slipped away when we found ourselves together in Room 203 listening to the opening speech of Rather Melchiors. After learning from him. our duties in Latin. History and Religion. and after getting a few words of sound advice, we were presented to Prof. McGinlev. our instructor in Algebra and English. To each of them, and to Coach Stringer, we wish to express our gratitude for their kindly, sympathetic treatment. After we began to feel that close bond of friendship which has been our chief joy during the year, we elected our class officers. (leorge Vaua. president. Robert Smith, vice-president. and Bernard Gibbons, treasurer. We boast of the slashing line plunges of Thomas Cassidy who was full back on the High School Squad, and the red-haired quarterback of the Junior picked team was none other than our own Joe McXulty. At the beginning of the second semester we were united with First A. and from then on our history is common. The school year is fast drawing to a close. Those same boys who at the beginning were sad with autumn are now sad to leave good, old St. Mary's. Geow Vann President Harrington. Cassidy. Fleming. Wilson. Hess. Almnzon Regan. Borghoflf. McXulty.

Page Oi Fjr.st League Footba JJ HTHK football exhibited by the sterling teams in the first league is a good criterion by which to judge the success of the league itself. So spirited was the light and so evenly matched the teams, that is was necessary to decide, by a vote of the league governing committee, the championship team at the end of the season. The aggregations led by Will Potts, and Johnny Boyd ended the season in a deadlock, and it was only after a motion made bv Potts himself that the deciding vote was cast for Boyd’s eleven.

Despite the difficulties in organizing the league, it was really a grand success. At the football banquet Johnny Kent was presented with a little souvenir as an appreciation of his spirit. The Junior Picked Team had a good season even though always defeated. In a mud battle they held the comparatively gigantic Topeka Catholic High team to a 6 to 0 score. They lost again bv the same score in a return game at Topeka. The Juniors went down before Sacred Heart Academy of Manhattan. 12 to 6. in a game replete with thrills and “llukes.” The Ex-Juniors won the annual Junior-Ex-Junior game. 6 to 0.

Two pages bright with the shining achievements of the Sophomore Class. Written large at the top of each page is the name of our class president whose example has been our inspiration. With only half of our college years behind us we have a record to be proud of and a future rich with the promise of greater things. We have had our representatives in every department of athletics and in every phase of scholastic activity. Some of our classmates have mounted to dizzy heights of literary achievement. Others have been found worthy of representing their school in forensics and oratory. And still others have won glory for their Alma Mater on the gridiron, on the court and on the diamond. Xext fall will probably find us a somewhat smaller group. We are sorry that for some the parting of the ways must come so soon, lint for us who persevere together, the path ahead at old St. Mary’s, though stretching into the misty distance is decked with rosy light. With the passing of the years, old scenes will become more hallowed, old traditions will become more sacred, the bonds of friendship will be more firmly welded and memories will shed a benediction on many things that now are common or tedious or even odious. Two happy years past. Two happier years to come. Page 68 HA It IIY G. MEELHAEPT— Jake” 1804 Arlington Avc., Des Moines. In. Sodality, Phllalethic. Honors. Band. Orchestra.

Page 7-1 Second High A V K by one the clays of vacation shot by and again we were back at old St. Mary’s. We were greeted by many familiar faces and some new ones. I low different from our first year at St. Mary’s when all was strange and all were strangers. Oh. mighty rime, how powerful is thy wand. Shortly after the opening of school, we elected our class officers. Paul O’Dea was our choice for president and “Rill” Donovan for vice-president. Karrell and Walsh were our representatives on the high school football team and both of them won their letters. In the leagues we had many a doughty Knight to champion our cause, both in football and basketball and several of our class-mates were on all-star teams. In the elocution preliminaries, our representatives were Kelliher, Xivert, Brink and Douthat. Under the direction of Mr. Kovalcik they made a very creditable showing. To our instructors. Messrs. Kovalcik. McOinley and McCaffrey, we owe more thanks than mere words can express. Under their guidance we have laid a good foundation for the two years,—two fleeting years to come.

The holiday spirit soon vanished, and the class strove to recall forgotten bits of knowledge. Early in the year our class officers were chosen. Robert I'arrcll was elected president, while Joseph Burris was made class secretary. Louis (iallccicz was elected treasurer. Every one connected with St. Mary's knows the excitement caused bv the repeated carrying off of all trophies offered for Class competition. Included among these were the Mission Raffle prize, the Mission Pennant and the Elocution Medal. It was from Second High B that the principal characters of the lunior Play, “'Hie Upper Room, were chosen. And what would the junior football team have done without the aid of “Willie Krebs and Holman?

'Phe appreciation of music is indicative of a development of the higher tendencies of man's nature, of the loftiness of character and the development of the love of the beautiful which should be included in every true education. 'Phe interest shown by St. Mary's in music dates back to the very foundation of the school. We read in the annals of St. Mary’s of the first orchestras, the first glee clubs, the first choirs, and the first bands. We notice throughout the years the growing importance with which these institutions are considered ; we notice the more prominent part they play in the life of the students at the school. As time passed music became one of the foremost extracurricular activities with which the college as an institution concerned herself. From bumble lieginnings in the pioneer days, the institutions and organizations of musicians have progressed, developed, improved, until today the musical organizations of St. Mary’s stand second to none in their class in the country. Music, as it plays an important part in liturgical ceremonies, had its most rapid development along that line here at St. Mary’s. The Choir became, naturally, the most important of the organizations devoted to music, and the work of that organization added untold solemnity to our religious ceremonies. Time has seen the great improvement and change in the Choir. The present pipe-organ is a tribute to the esteem in which the choir and its work is held by a faithful alumnus. Phis is only one of many such instances. And as the Choir has progressed so have the other groups. Phe band, the orchestra, the glee-club all have reached their present finished state through years of building and improvement. Time has brought the necessity for added organizations. Phe Kampus Kats and the Kampus Kittens are the more recent additions to the musical personnel of the school’s institutions. And so it has l een. Phis year a keen interest has been taken in music at St. Mary’s. Phe climax of the year was the spring concert, the annual formal program of the combined groups. Music still lives at St. Mary’s. Pago 78 Choir and GJcc HTHE Choir and the Glee Club, the combined organization, had its beginning back in 1870. with a two-fold purpose to serve. Primarily it was organized to add solemnity to the religious celebrations and feasts, and to aid in Church services in general. Secondarily it was organized to give the students an opportunity to advance in the study of vocal music. 'Phis year the Choir and the Glee Club were under the faculty supervision of Mr. Carrol Poland. S. J.. and under the direction of Professor Rcnii Den Haerynck. Mr. Ed. McDonnell 29 served as president of the organization throughout the year. Probably greater diversity of talent was displayed this year in the organization than ever before. Among the more prominent soloists of the organization are. Joseph Hughes. Garvin Martini. Fred Arnold, and John Reilly. The Glee Club climaxed the season's activities with its participation in the Prof, Rcmy don Haerynck annual spring concert, at which the vocalists rendered a series of duets and quartets, both popular and classical.

If we stop and ask “What would a college campus be without a band? we are brought to a realization of the important part which that organization plays in school activities. I’ndcr the direction of Prof. Arthur Steiger-wald one more year of outstanding musical achievement has been added to the long list of previous successes of the band. 'The stellar musical organization which provided entertainment dc luxe during the football and basketball seasons has demonstrated again the truth of the statement that cooperation is traditional with the St. Mary's student. For the success of the band as a whole depended upon the interest taken in it by the members themselves and in the manner in which every single individual did his part as a member of the whole. The evident success which the band achieved this year is proof enough of that cooperation which the members lent their leader in attending practices and in endeavoring to make the band the best within their power.

Throughout the years the orchestra has maintained a high standard and has time and again brought glory to itself and its directors through its concert ability. This year's work has been no exception. Under the able direction of Prof. Arthur Steigerwald the College symphony orchestra has presented a number of programs which were well received and climaxed its work with the annual spring concert in May, the outstanding musical event of the year. It has given expression to the loftier and more refined sentiments of the students to the pleasure and entertainment of large audiences. Brother George and his cello have gone, but the orchestra still exhibits that same high quality of musical ability, and St. Mary's takes the same pride in her most dignified musical organization. l rof.

I .oft us. S. J. Page SI The Kampus Kats nri M K has been and always will be the expression of change. Times change and with them customs. To meet the demands of these changed times new institutions must be developed. Such is true of music. The musical trend of modernism found its expression in a type musical organization which departed radically from any which had existed previously. The popular type of music finds its expression peculiarly adapted to the modern instrumentation known as the popular dance orchestra. St. Mary’s, in the Kampus Kats. posseses an organization which takes its place along with the best in the field of collegiate entertainers. Their value can best be calculated when their work in furnishing music for the College dances and other entertainments is considered. Decidedly a student organization. under faculty supervision, the Kampus Kats are well deserving of the praise which has come their way this year. Page S2 McGurren. Mearu. Berg. Roberts. Mayer. Forbes, Dyck. Dcrnbach. Badamcco The K a in pus Kittens HTHE personnel of collegiate organizations changes continually with the years. Veterans after a few years give place to tyros wiio in turn become veterans and pass on. The preparation for the future is not the least of the duties of the Junior organizations. The Kainpus Kittens, the Junior counterpart of the Kampus Kats. were organized for the two-fold purpose of supplying entertainment for Junior and High School festivities and of preparing for the future when the present Kampus Kats will have passed on and their places will have to be filled. The Junior organization has been in its short duration of two years eminently successful in achieving both its aims. May continued success he theirs and may time find their present personnel occupying with equal success the places vacated by our Kampus Kats. Page S3 Galllcioz, Dillon. Duimwny. Doutlmt. McNulty.

For the first time in the history of the club the Thespians were directed by a student director. From the opening meeting of the club in the early part of the year the Club enjoyed a success unequalled in its recent history. Under the capable and expert direction of Joseph F. Hughes. '30. a series of one act plays inaugurated the dramatic season, and received well-deserved appreciation. The crowning event of the dramatic year however was the staging of the three act comedy Give and Take” which insured the success of the season. Faster Sunday evening. Joseph 10.

The entire cast portrayed their parts to perfection, and the characters played by 1'rank Smith and Tom Bukatv sold the play at once. A series of foreign presentations was arranged for the play, the first of which was given at St. Mary’s College, Leavenworth on the evening of April 28. which won high praise from the appreciative audience. Pago sc The Junior Play TX accordance with the policy of increased Small Yard participation in all activities of St. Mary's, the Juniors presented Robert Hugh Benson’s “The Upper Room, a play depicting the inner story of the sufferings of the Blessed Virgin during the Passion. After the hard work and careful directing of Mr. C. Boland. S. J.. the members of the cast and staff accomplished their task perfectly. John Dillon fulfilled the delicate task of playing the Blessed Mother, around whom the play is centered. The long parts of Achaz. the innkeeper and his son Samuel were excellently dramatized by (icorge Haniakcr and W alter Bernard. Thomas Fitzgerald did well as Mary Magdclcne. lover of Our Lord. Charles Duffy carried out the part of Veronica with equal superiority. Joseph Cunningham portrayed Peter. “Rock of the Church. Thomas Ryan gave the character of Judas a very realistic touch. Joseph of Aramathea was played by Wilfred Krebs and William Dehler as John played bis part nobly and well. Phillip Lawlor lent himself to the gruff soldier Longinius. The doctor of the law was played by Joseph Burris. The choir under the direction of Professor Rcmy DenHaervnck enchanced the production with a musical background of appropriate hymns. Pago s: Movies at St. Mary's TT.VDER the direction of the Rev. Walter Rocmer. S. J. a first class schedule of movies was secured for the students of St. Mary’s, during the past year. The latest productions were secured for presentation in the College Auditorium within a remarkably short time after their release. Some of them, in fact, were shown for the students here before they reached the larger cities. St. Mary’s is possessed of an up-to-date projection booth in connection with the auditorium. Many improvements were made upon the equipment this year. An important addition to the equipment was the installation of a modern synchronization unit which added greatly to the completeness of the programs.

J.. faculty moderator, the society entered into the year’s schedule with an interest which has hardly been equaled in several years. The parliamentary rules were more stringently enforced than in the past, and the meetings were interesting and instructive. Much of the enthusiasm this year was due to the fact that questions of general interest to the students occupied the attention of the debaters throughout most of the year. The Philaletliic Society also sponsored the school’s outstanding forensic and oratorical competitive contests, the Harbaugh Debate and the Ryan Oratorical Contest. Mr. J. J. Mahoney, S. J. Moderator Page 89 The Harbattgh Debate HTML medal known as the Washington Medal, donated annually by Mr. Simon Ilarbaugh of St. Louis, an alumnus of St. Mary's, for the best forensic speech delivered in public debate by a student of St. Mary's was won this year by Mr. Donnell Downing '30. of Des Moines. la. 'The debate held annually on the eve of W ashington’s Birthday in the college auditorium is the forensic classic of the scholastic year. It is the crowning achievement of the debating season.

MARY'S Intercollegiate Debaters enjoyed a most extensive schedule and a most successful season during the past year. The call issued by Mr. Mahoney. S. J.. faculty director of public speaking activities, early in the year was answered by a large group of able forensic artists, from which a representative debating scpiad was chosen. The local debaters confined themselves to discussion of two questions only this year. Both questions were recognized by all authorities on intercollegiate debating as being very well suited for college discussion. I he jury question and the discussion of the respective merits of the parliamentary and cabinet forms of government were the two topics handled by the St. Mary's debaters. Debates were held with Creighton University, of Omaha. Rockhurst College. of Kansas City, and Kansas Wesleyan University, of Salina.

Our successes and our failures have alike been recorded in the annals of our course. The closing year brings with it feelings of regret and satisfaction—regret for its passing and the failures which we have made, satisfaction for those things wherein we have succeeded and for the fact that we have upheld the traditional standard of true St. Mary’s men. We have passed the half way mark in our life as students of St. Mary’s and as we view in retrospect the past we feel a glow of pride in the accomplishments which grace the record of the class of '30. in this and in past years. It is with pride that we recall the achievements in every line of student activity. extra-curricular no less than in the class room. There is no form of student activity which has not been bettered through the help of the class of '30. We have endeavored to give our best in furthering every St. Mary's project, be it scholastic, social or athletic. How well we have succeeded is to be measured by the long list of names of members of the Class of '30 which grace the records of those who have done things worth while, and have lent their aid in furthering the interests of the school.

We feel certain that the spirit of the Class of '30 will stand as a beacon to future St. Mary's men. Loyalty has been our watchword, as it has been of every St. Mary's class throughout the years, and it is with pardonable pride that we place ourselves among that vast crowd of years gone by of true St. Mary's men. It is then with regret for the fact that we have not done more in the past, but with satisfaction in the fact that what we have done has stamped us as worthy of the name of St. Mary’s men. that we close this, our Junior year. Another year is left to us to conclude the work which we began three years ago and which we have carried on throughout the succeeding years. May the return of the school year find us ready to add another page emblazoned with achievement for the Class of '30 in the annals of St. Mary's historv. Page 111 I hird High A SPRINGTIME!

However, it was not long till everything was again normal. and we were studying hard for the monthly tests. At the first call for football there were many to respond and when the team was chosen we found three of our classmates filling positions. In the quarterly reading of the notes we were well represented on the honor list. In December we were all glad to start home, for we had a full month of vacation to look forward to. After a well spent vacation we again boarded that St. Mary's Special which carried us back t« long months of study. In Basketball we placed two of our classmates on the team, and after a successful season we were just a few days away from Retreat. Xow that the Retreat is over we find many of our friends out for track. Some have earned permanent positions. Soon the pool will open and we are all sure that we will have someone to uphold the standards of Third Knglish. Spring Activities LITERARY behind them in written word monuments to their days in school which will be remembered and recalled to posterity when time shall have effaced the memories of their more transitory achievements. The literature and literary endeavor of the students shall be preserved to future generations more carefully than will the memories of other activities— the students themselves have insured that memory, and have left a record of accomplishment which will outlast the enroachments of time itself. St. Mary's has always endeavored to instill in her sons an excellence and perfection in writing for a two-fold purpose, Eirst for itself, and second as a means to an end. as a means of instilling in them the appreciation of good literature. She has desired to send men into the world possessed of a facile pen backed by a clear philosophy and a keen perception. I low well her efforts in this direction have succeeded this year is attested by the success of her students in the many literary contests sponsored for just this purpose. In addition to her own institutional contests in which a high standard of excellence is reached, the names of her students are to be found near the top in the Intercollegiate Latin and English contests conducted for all the schools of the Jesuit Missouri Province. Thus in literary endeavor, as well as in other fields has St. Mary’s during the past school year been successful.

Under the management of Rev. I X. Peacock. S. J.. the Library has made one vast stride toward greater perfection. When we paid our first visit to the Library last September we were attracted bv a few of the many improvements made during the summer vacation: especially attractive was the appearance of the office room which the Library had lacked in past years. A notable addition to the office is the new head-librarian. Mr. Maurice E. Coleman, an alumnus of the school, who assumed his duties at the beginning of the school year. In the tasks of rearranging many misplaced books, of cataloging new books, of serving the students and in general work necessary to a librarian. Mr. Coleman has been ably assisted by Edwin Drciling. George Dernbach and John Spalding in the Senior Library and John Boyd in the baculty Library. The Junior division of the Library Association under the direction of Mr. Carrol Boland. S.

Life’s moments, hours and days llit past like restless shadows. The all-engulfing ocean of Eternity remains. “While here below. says St. Augustine. “let us prepare for the heavenly life which knows no end where our sole occupation will be to love. Education at St. Mary’s aims at the harmonious development of the entire man. “Every student, an athlete is St. Mary's slogan in physical education, for she knows that without a healthy physique, it is difficult to develop a sound mind. And St. Mary’s wants to develop scholars as well as athletes. I ler theory and her practice is that in the arts and sciences, the very best obtainable is none too good for her students. But St. Mary's does not stop here. She is not satisfied with giving her sons tnerelv a physical and mental education. In fact, the very reason for her existence is the superadded moral training without which no education is complete. I low well she succeeds in developing Christian gentlemen as well as athletes and scholars is amply attested by the manly piety of her students. 'Their devotion to our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, as manifested by their frequent visits to the chapel and the large number who daily approach the Holy Table, their filial, traditional devotedness to the Mother of (lod, their edifying earnestness during the annual retreat—all this speaks volumes for the moral influence exerted by old St. Mary’s on the precious young lives committed to her care. Time flies! The carelessness of youth gives place to graver years. But the lessons learned within the cloistered walls of old St. Mary’s are not soon forgotten. Here the very air is permeated with the spirit of Christianity. Here impressionable youth is surrounded by all that is good and noble and elevating. Rev. J. P. Melchior . S. J.

Prefect of Candidates Henry I'nischcid TTN tlic past, each fleeting year has placed a crown of success on every St. Mary's activity, and this year greater success than ever marks the activity of the College Sodality. The Sodality is perhaps the most active college organization; it begins action with the opening of the school year and continues without cessation to the very end. The success of the College Sodality is well affirmed by the results of the State Convention of Sodalities held here, by the large number of new members received into the Sodality on the I'east of the Immaculate Conception, by the faithful attendance of the Sodalists at the weekly meetings, and by the attention and interest shown in the instructive talks of the Moderator. Rev. C. J. Kolnie. Hut besides this the fact that the students visit Mary’s shrine frequently throughout the day shows that the Mother of Cod has a place in the very heart of every St. Mary’s man. and that the Sodality has realized its aim. - ■ .1 y J - - Page 126 Senior High School Sociality OFFICERS First Semester S0™”'1 Sememor Adrian I.

Dwyer nplKKK is no better sign of the St. Mary's man's devotion, than his love of the Mother of God. This devotion is due in great measure to the Sodalitv. Through its weekly meetings, ii keeps the great love of the Blessed Virgin and her goodness toward her children constantly before the Sodalist. It is tjie Sodality that is responsible for the large number of daily Communions among the students. This vear. a new program was followed ill the Sunday evening meetings, which has proved most successful. Question boxes were placed in the study hall and in Loyola Hall for any questions on matters pertaining to the Faith, that the students might wish answered. These questions were collected at the end of the week, and were answered either by the director or by the students themselves: thereby giving the sodalist a better and more thorough knowledge of his religion. 'flic number received into the Sodality on the I‘'east of the Immaculate Conception, and the religious fervor manifested during the months of May and October give evidence of the wonderful work the Sodality is accomplishing. Page 127 The Junior Sodality nr HE members of this spiritual organization were faithful and attentive to A the weekly pledge of loyalty to Mary. The guidance of the Moderator, Father Melchiors, was too splendid to form anything but a successful year. The old members, very early after the commencement of the new year, held a meeting and an election. Worthy members were elected to the important posts of leadership. Their duties were performed with a willing spirit that expressed their earnest desire for a successful year. The Prefect for the first semester was Joseph Cunningham and for the second semester, Wilfred K rebs. During the first part of the year the Moderator delivered brief sermons on the Litany of the Blessed Virgin. Later the officers began a series of short talks. The Sodality owes thanks to our Director and to all those who aided in making our devotion to Marv worth while. May the Sodalities of following years he aided rather than harmed by our example.

Huge 12$ College Acolythical A NOTIIFCR year has been added to the long list of active years which mark the activities of those who assist at the religious devotions at St. Mary’s. It has been a boast of St. Mary's that the majority of her students are members of the Acolythical Society—a tribute both to the school and to her sons who can still find time to draw nearer to the altar of (lod. and assist m a special manner in giving honor and glory to their Divine Lord. St. Mary’s is proud of her college Acolytes. Faithful to assignments, edifying in their actions about the altar, observant, and willing to make sacrifices in fulfillment of the duties of their office, the members of the college acolythical society have brought upon themselves the most favorable comments. The fidelity with which the boys fulfilled their duties tended greatly to add to the dignity of the sacred liturgy. Wlesner. Sheoran. Schuster. It. Sullivan. Hunker, 1'msoheid. Duff F. Smith. Deane.

Due to the untiring efforts of Mr. Kovalcik, S. J. the Society has prospered remarkably: not in a worldly sense, but in a far more important and beneficial way: a better knowledge and reverence for the mysteries of the Altar. Although the Society was not as large as in former years, the work accomplished was in no way diminished. The solemn services of Holy Week, devotions on the hirst Friday, and Solemn High Masses, gave full opj)ortunity for all members of the Society to add their share to the splendor of the Mass and Benediction. One of the most praiseworthy features of the society is the self-sacrificing spirit shown by its members. In the early hours of the morning, while their lellow-students were slumbering peacefully, the acolytes arose, to be allowed the privilege to kneel and move among the invisible choirs of angels who throng in adoration around the Sacred Victim.

In tlie Junior Society the boys learn the principles upon which the Senior Societies are organized. They become, by their training in the Junior Society tatter able to be eminent members of the other organizations. Many of the new hoys evinced their desire of serving (iod in the greatest sacrifice by enrolling for the society. After long and careful training these hoys took their places upon the altars of the Faculty Chapel and the Imma-culata. They joined the older members who had regularly taken turns at arising early to assist at the Divine Sacrifice. Xo fault can he noticed in the manner in which these devoted acolytes fulfilled their assignment. If future Acolythical Societies are of as high an order as the one of this year the good example offered by them will certainly increase piety. In the years to come, our places will he filled by others. The Junior Acolythical Society will still continue to do its work of preserving a spirit of reverence in an irreverent age. Douthat.

A new system inaugurated by the director was productive of very satisfactory results. In the college department the modified pledge system was resorted to with encouraging results, file work of the collectors in the college department is to he congratulated. In the High School department interest was kept at a high pitch throughout the year by means of a perpetual contest between the classes, the winning class each month in point of individual percentage was presented with the St. Mary’s mission banner, indicative of the championship for the month. Success crowned the efforts of almost every high school class at least once throughout the year. A campus-wide rallle held immediately preceding the Christmas holidays was highly successful and added a substantial sum to the total for St. Mary’s for the year. Spalding. O'Donnell.

A departure from the old system of class teams was made this year and captains were appointed and teams chosen without respect to class. The handling of the leagues was given to Everett Massey by Mr. O’Rourke. The schedule for the season is well under way. and the teams are battling for the pennant in each league with the characteristic fight which has made the leagues a tradition at St. Mary's, and the St. Mary's leagues a tradition over the entire country.

'Pile interest, however, was kept alive through the efforts of the members themselves, and a schedule of exhibition bouts, not extensive, though none-the-less successful was presented throughout the year. Under the leadership of John Stringer, the Boxing Club afforded a means of wholesome recreation and instructive play for the large number who took part in its season's program, and succeeded in establishing itself upon a firmer basis in preparation for next year. The Tri-ennial meeting of the Alumni during the latter part of May and the first of June was the occasion of another exhibition of the fistic enthusiasts in the Club. Medals were given for the champions in each weight division at the conclusion of these bouts. Hermes, West. Sheoratn. Bowman Itodenhorn, O’Mahonoy Kitsgcrald. Vossman. Ileffernan. P.

Captain Hyland Page 145 Golf N ideal combination of veteran tried material and low-shooting recruits gave the St. Marys golf team an ideal foundation upon which to build the representative team. Captain Johnny Berg led the Knights for the fourth year and had with him from previous years Jus Hay. and Johnny Forbes. 1h� th of whom have seen active service in past years for St. Mary’s. The team was substantially aided by the presence of a Freshman flash in the person of (lerdon Lundergan who copped low honors in the fall open tourney and made it evident that his score would be consistently low all vear. r Such was the material which formed the 1929 golf outfit.

Our forms are to pass from St. Mary’s hallowed walls.—Wc leave behind but the names and memories of our years inscribed on the scroll of time. Four short years and the day has come when the class of 1929 can no longer emblazon on the record scroll deeds of success and achievement. Our college days are over. But as the doors of St. Mary’s close behind us a new vista meets our view, a new and broader vista—the doors have opened upon the world, where each one of us must p’av his part in the great drama of life. The linger of time has written “finis” to our college years. Four short years, filled to overflowing with eventful happenings, have passed since we first entered St. Mary’s as college men. But from the very beginning we made it evident that as time went on we would undoubtedly write a full page in the annals of St. Maurc’s before we were through. Mow well we have kept our promise is told in this book. Our first year, the beginning of what seemed to us an endless task, wc passed with glory, and the scroll of time carries on it the triumphs of our class in every line of student endeavor. With the first milestone passed we entered upon our Sophomore year, which but duplicated the feats of our Freshman year. And so our Junior year, when first we felt the responsibility of upper classmen. But the spirit of the Class of ’29 was only heightened bv the added trust. And now our Senior year. The time nears when the book of our college life will be closed—forever. And as the day of parting draws nearer and nearer we face the future undaunted, unafraid, with a feeling of mingled pride and regret. We fear not. for our teachers and associations at St. Mary's have shaped our lives to combat the world's hardest battles. We are proud of our record—of the fact that we have been able to keep alive that old St. Mary’s spirit and that we have earned the right to be called “St. Mary’s Men. The time for parting has come, and as we say a fond goodbye to St. Maurc’s and to our associates it is with a feeling that though many miles may separate us. nor time nor distance can ever dissolve the bond which keeps us ever together—the SIM KIT OF ST.

Page 1«8 Fourth High we open the ledger of time for a final inspection of our High School record, we turn the pages back and back until we finally come to the September of nineteen hundred and twenty-five when a group of strangers walked into the Small Yard to take up their abode at St. For four years we have been watching class after class leave these halls and wend their way to college and to business, and we have not been impressed so very much, save that we envied them, perhaps, for their nice new sheep-skins. Hut now that our turn has come, we find the long awaited hour is not entirely filled with joy. There is a tinge of sorrow through it all.—a feeling of regret and loneliness when we think of a world away from old St. Mary’s. When we entered here four years ago in that eventful nineteen hundred and twenty-five, we came with but one intention.—to help ourselves and to be worthy of our school. For four years we have done this to the best of our ability and now we prepare to leave the school that has given us so much. Glancing over the record we cannot but feel some sense of pride, for although there may be dark spots in that record, the bright ones far outnumber them. On the gridiron, court and diamond we have taken our places and have exemplified the old St. Mary’s spirit: in the class room we have upheld the standards set before us: in forensics and dramatics we have left a record of which any class might justly boast: but most of all in that higher and holier perfection we have striven to uphold the sacred traditions of St. Mary’s. And now. as we prepare to close the book, we can only hope that future years will bear sufficient testimony to the results of our labor and our play at St. Mary’s. Mary’s. P� BO 161. P. Johnson J.

J. ’07. succeeded Father B. J. Rodman. S. J. ’01 July 18. 1928 and is the second Alumnus to become Rector and President of his Alma Mater as Father Rodman S. J. was the first. Only time in its swift flight can show us what the future holds in store for St. Mary’s hut surely in the hands of as capable a man as Father O’Hcrn has proven himself to he in the past the program for a Greater St. Mary’s will produce remarkable results. Sol Gross Honored by Business Associates Sol Gross of the Class of 1910 was the man in whose honor some of the most prominent business men of St. Louis assembled for a testimonial dinner October 25. 1928 at the Coronado Hotel of that city. Mr. Gross’ past record has been one of successful achievement and he may well be termed the counterpart of Marion Batson, S. J. in the business world. Loyal to his Alma Mater he took the helm of the 1928 Annual Alumni Meet and steered it through to one of the biggest successes in the history of these epoch making meets of St. Mary’s. He is a true son of St. Mary’s. The Advisory Board of the Alumni One of the greatest steps forward in the past year was accomplished in the creation of an Alumni Advisory Hoard whose duty it is to confer upon the projects proposed in the material advancement of St. Mary’s and to advise the President of the College of their decisions. The movement makes for a more constant contact between the Alumni and their Alma Mater and for the promotion of a spirit that would scarcely be there otherwise. Mr. Marion Batson, S. J., Alumnus to India As he did battle on the fields of glory while at St. Mary’s with the cheers of another student body ringing in his ears so now Marion Batson of the Class of 24 has gone forth to fight the battle of the Lord in the far off India with the cheers of the present St. Mary’s Student Body urging him to keep up the good fight for the son of Mary, our Patron. Knighting of the Graham Brothers Robert C. Graham. '04; Joseph Graham. ’04; and Ray A. Graham. ’04. reaped a great reward for faithful service to the Faith and Catholic principles when on November 19. 1928 they were admitted to the Order of the Knights of St. Gregory at St. Simon’s Church of Washington, Indiana which is the native city of the three Graham brothers. It marks the first time in the history of the American branch of this Order that the honor was conferred upon three of the same family and St. Mary’s is honored in that all are loyal sons, in fact, it is largely due to their devotion to St. Mary’s that this honor was made possible for them. Page 17� I The Triennial Meet TTNDER the direction of John Cunningham 11. of Kansas City, the Alumni Association of St. Mary's College prepared the biggest tri-ennial meeting of the former sons of St. Manrc’s. in which not the slightest detail was overlooked. The scores of Alumni and visitors who spent three enjoyable days—enjoyable to the fullest extent through every minute of the days will attest that as a “big boss” John is the nc plus ultra, and that his corps of able assistants were on the job every minute. Alumni from every section were present for the three days’ jollification which did a great deal to bring the St. Mary’s sons of the present into intimate contact with the men who have left S. M. C. in generations past, only to return as “boys” again. From the minute when the first Alumnus registered and the program began on May 31. until the last coach of the train bearing the last Alumni back to their homes disappeared down the track, there was not a dull moment. Wally Laufer. genial personality plus” again won his way into the hearts of his admirers and the antics of his fellow merman. Desjardins aided greatly in the merry making. The diamond stars of yesterday showed how the hit and run and squeeze worked out here when “Tinker to Evers to Chance” was the bv-word in the big time: kings” and indoor claimed their admirers, and the culminating event, the annual banquet, in the College refectory on the evening of June 1. at which several prominent Alumni spoke to the students and short addresses were made by James Burris. Newman Guthrie, and Jack Leahigh. A pageant of Catholic education completed the program. JOHN CVNNINOIIAM KBV. CORNHI.Il'S A. SHYNK. S. .J. Director of Alumni Activities 1p THKR CORNFLIUS A. S11YXK.

The smoothness and swiftness of fourth, and the rapid acceleration of third, can only be appreciated by personal experience. There is nothing new to learn—you start in second; first is instantly available, but seldom used. We invite you to enjoy a demonstration of this new thrill in motoring. Graham-Paige offers a variety of body types, including roadsters, cabriolets, sport phaetons and sedans, on five chassis—sixes and eights — at a wide range of prices.
