VALETE All good things come to an end. So the closing 9f the school year of 1924 marks : the passing of seven of St. Xaviefs foremost football warriors. The Amateur Col- legiate Athletic Records will close down simultaneously and forever upon Herb Davis, Richard Marnell, Mark Vail, Joe Mueller, Edtiie Burke, Richard Weiskittei and Walter Bartlett. Add to these two baseball men, Thomas Ball and Leo Kiley, and the list of graduate players is complete. Marnell has contributed to his Alma Mater four years of splendid work in the position of full back on the College eleven. To fill the gap he leaves will he no easy matter for Coach Meyer. Mark Vail, likewise, has shown himself a powerful man on the line, handling Both the guard and tackle positions in admirable fashion. With Herb Davis all are well acquainted and his work upon the gridiron, court and diamond will long be a topic of conversation wherever Xavier men are gathered. His name will live forever at St. Xavier. Joe Mueller Can easily claim a position on am Atht. Xavier eleven for the manner in which he has conducted himself in the wing section of the Blue and White squad for the past four years. When the words grit and faithfulness are mentioned, immediately will Eddie Burke be recalled. Dick Weiskittel will be remembered for his splendid all-round work and as the finest basketball center St. Xavier ever had. Walter Bartlett has been a tower of strength in both football and basketball. He also earned his letter in baseball. As for Tom Ball, at cleverer little infielder never executed a play upon the diamonde This holds also for Leo Kiley who has contributed three years of fast fielding to his school. In attempting to express the praise which is due these men for their splendid clients in the past few years the writer is at a loss for apt words and phrases. He begs that the inadequacy of his expression stands as a mute token of the homage which all Xavier men would like to tender these noble athletes. Nlay they go forth to face the problems of life in the same determined manner in which they faced the battles of the athletic field! And may they taste abundantly of the cake of success!
