ll IIEII 5 TU THE W YS UP Ii UWLEIJBE dents. Brother Faber's mild manner is felt by all at one time or another. Brother Leonard Francis, the school librarian, teaches about everything here at St. X. He is a friend to all boys, save those who fail to return library books when due. Brother Connor came to the Tiger institution after the death of good Brother Athanasius. He has a slight Eastern ac- cent, often saying: Thats fine, Ioe. He loves sports, but says that he has too much work to keep up with them. Brother Sylvan's witti- cisms may be heard in lB during the first pe- riod where he teaches the fundamentals of Latin. Mr. Morris, who also has a slight accent, being a wee bit Southern, is a fine gentleman and scholar as well as an excellent teacher. Mr. lones is a quiet, easy going Freshman Tutor who is quite popular with the first year students. He is backfield football coach here at X and he is now starting his second sea- son. He also is a fine history tutor. All in all, the teachers of the first year boys are a swell bunch of regular Brothers who can understand the problems of a high school boy and help him with them as well as with his school work. The opposite side of the lounge is occupied by Brothers Leonard Francis. Timothy. Donatus, Fabius. Faber. Evan. Valerian, and Austin. t - Qs- A 'Qt Ott BWUM X R BROTHER FABEH, C.F.X.

That first day we had to go to Freshman Hall was the best . . . Remember? . . . We came in that back door..
