JIM BOYLE JUNIOR PRESIDENT AY JIM! Thatis the head of the Junior Class. He is an A-l information bureau of most sporting statistics, both of School, and the world at large. The football he displayed this year was hard to beat from both offensive and defen- sive standpoints. They may have tried to skirt his end, but whether they came large 01' small, Jimmy was there to stop them. Aside from his football ability, he has the unique distinction of being the Assistant Boss of the Chemistry Laboratory. Page Siny-six

The Senior Class 1TH the coming of June, this body of choice spirits: will pass beyond the portals of Old Xavier. Individually and collectively they are the. best sort of fellows that one can find anywhere, or even wish to find. All through the eight years which most of them have spent under Jesuit tutelage, there has never been an activity, scholastic, or otherwise which they have not Figured in, and as was most often the case, entirely taken over and carried to a highly successful end. In scholastic Work, they have won distinction so often that it has become a habit to expect them to duplicate on each occasion. In matters: intercollegiate, the Seniors are proud to boast of the enriching: endeavors of Joe Meyers, the tall, gaunt, intellectual, who has won numerous places in both Latin and English contests, and Ronald Jeanmnugin, who was no mental slouch. In the forum, the graduate class has been amply represented by such luminaries as Murray, Kennedy, Ruthman, and Moore. The columns of the school periodicals have been both contributed to and directed by Seniors. Among these were Grogan, Schmitz, Clinger, Dell, Gaynor, and Vollman. Feltman, Fecker, OtBrien, Higgins, Murphy and Lyons did considerable toward the elevat- ing of the class standard, intellectually. Athletics called upon the noble services of Knecht, Lammers, Dacey and Baurichter. The Class was notoriously a howling success, chiefly through the efforts of Geerin. All in all, it can well be said that there was never a class, the equal of the class of '25, the outgoing ttdoingt, senior class. Page Sixty-five

The Junior Class HE gallant class of '26! Each year its members come before their queenly Alma Mater with a sweeping bow, and offer their composite arm for her support during; the coming months. Each year, with gcreater and greater trust, she smilingly accepts. uHere are my colorsf' she whispers, HCarry them into all activities which thrive within my walls. And her favorites have never failed. During the year of 1924-25, hath field and forum felt the presence of the Juniors. 0n the white-marked swal'd, m' the hardwood court, Reynolds, tfont- ball captain-elect, and this year's basket-ball piloU Weiner, Boyle, Farrell, Mussio, Queenan, Albers, and Welge were the very spirit of the fray. Tho forensic art was championed by Glenn, the successful orator 0f the 'Washington Medal contest, and his co-aspirants, Paddack, Winter, and Arlinghaus, the latter, along with Manion being a member of the Intercollegiate Debating Team. The Philopedian Society, The Xaverian Masque Society, and the Dante Club each had its contingent of Juniors; they are Brunsman, Cahill, Glenn, Arlingr haus, Paddaek, Collins, Barnhorn, Winter, McClinchey and Coughlin. The busy sanctums 0f the News, and the Annual saw Juniors much in evidence, Winter as assistant editor of the News, and Arlinghaus as business manager of both the News and the Annual, Manion and Paddack as editors respectively of the Alumni and Faculty news, and Magazine section of our college organ. Needless to say, the Sodality was well attended by Juniorseethi'ee of them being officers. Finally the shining success of the Junior Prom was due, not only to the excellent work of Farrell, and the committee, but to the great cooperation, goodefellowship, and sincere effort of the Class as a whole. All this, along with other excellencies have made for the mutual advancement of the College, and the individuals of the Junior Class of ,25. Page Sixty-seven
