One seed has always been sown, and one har- vest repeatedly taken. To the sower of the seed, and to the good ground where it fell and was nourished, it was first thought to dedicate this book. But neither the sower nor the good ground, of the figure, are individual. They stand for many teachers, and many students; the first speaking the Word, the others hear- ing it and keeping it. To all these teachers and students, then — many already past, and many yet to come — the editors dedicate this book. foreword ONE counting up recent accomplishments to set them down as part of contemporary history, not unfrequently forgets the meed of gratitude due those who went before and made the present possible. Nor should this be surpris- ing since man is selfish of praise, even uninten- tionally, and might easily regard as uninteresting those labors, sufferings and achievements of his forebears on which, perhaps, much of his own present success depends. Actuated by this thought, the Editors, in preparing for this twenty-fifth volume of The Redwood, the record of our Diamond Jubilee year, have proposed to themselves a twofold aim. They have sought in the general reading matter of the book to discharge their obligations to a progressive present by chronicling faithfully the events of the year just past; and, in choosing the earlier history of Santa Clara as i ts unifying motif, to manifest their grate- ful appreciation of an illustrious past. 3 eq UNIVERSITY ' K trospcct EDWARIJ P. ML ' RPHV When, (jn March 19, 1001, Father Rohert E. Kenna, at that time President of the College, l)egan the celel)ration of Santa Clara ' s Golden jnhilee, and hrought it to a glorious conclusion, June 3, with the first ])resentation of Clay M. (ireene ' s I ' assioii I ' hty of Santa Clara, hf little realized, jjerhaps, the vast changes which were to take jjlace Ijefore his Alma Mater would have grown to celebrate her Diamond jubilee in 1026. l)Ut twentv-five years, though seem- ingly few to those who have lived them, give time fur ])rogress; and the (nitstanding events in that march of ])r()gress make an interesting history. In the early years of the twentieth century. Santa Clara had, as a college, attained its high- est point ; and on April 2 ' , ] ' U2, it became the University of Santa C ' lara. The history of the last years of the College, from 1901 to 1912, may be l)riefly told. In ( )ctober of the year 1902 was published the first issue of ' flic Hcdwond. so called in honor of Father Kenna, who had taken a most active interest in the preservation of California ' s redwood forests. This i)eriodical took the place of the literary review called The 0-n ' l. Established to publish the scholastic work of the students and to chronicle the activities of the University, it is growing in importance and still ranks high among University ])ublications, if not in splendor of appearance, at least in the merit and sincerity of its contents. Perhaps the greatest event of this period took place on Pres- ident ' s Day, April 29, 1005. On this occasion the first air glider ever constructed soared over Santa Clara College. After years of study, devoted principally to the action of our familiar Cali- fcjrnia sea gulls, i ' rofessor John J. Montgomery (jf Santa Clara built his |)lane. ' idle day of the flight was an illustrious one for Santa Clara. The campus was .iLi.:..!!., ■ ■, .nul his m-r, The California Hotel, on the site of O ' Connor Hall, first home of the Lit- erary Coni ress. Beimj of adolic, it eollat seil in the IW ' 6 carlluiiiake. I ' Sl President ' s Daw 1W5 addnicd in fcslivc olive, with triumphal arches at either end of the grotincls. The forenoon was spent in athletic contests, while the afternoon was given over to the memorahle flig ' ht. Jn justice and honur to MduI- L;i)mer ' , it must he said that, although the niddern ])lane is greatly imi:)r(jved, it is essen- tially the same as that in which Montgomery first llcw ahove Santa Clara. Professor Montgomerv was aided in perfecting his plane hy heather Richard P)ell, S. J., a true scientist, and until recently Professor of IMiysics at the University. Father I ' ell is an acknowl- edged authority on electricity. Me was the first, moreover, to demonstrate in western .America the practical working of Marconi ' s wireless. In July of the same year in which Montgomery made his flight. Father Kenna was succeeded in the office of President hy Father Richard E. Gleeson. It was during the latter ' s term of office that the earthqtiake of 1906, astonishing the world with the story of its devastation, visited California. The great disaster dealt more gently with our Alma Mater than with other institutions round ahout. I ut the historic California Hotel, a huilding of adolie, huilt as a wayside inn during the sad days follcjwing the suppression of the Mission, was lost. Previous to its destrttction, it supplied the hall for the Literary Congress, a society flourishing today with all the vigor it enjoyed during the time of Father lulmund Young and his illustrious students. The students ' chapel was likewise severely damaged. Ahout four years later, Decemher 2i, 1909, the Faculty Building, a wooden structure erected in the early sixties, was destroyed hy fire. This huilding consisted of three stories, the lowest of which had been the dwelling of the early Franciscan Padres. Had it not been for the timely and efficient assistance of the Santa Clara and San Jose fire departments, coti- pled with the heroic efiforts of the townspeople, the entire College would undoubtedly have been de- stroyed. As it was, the destruc- tion of the Faculty Building was a severe blow, perhaps the great- „, ,., . , .,,. . . . ,, 1 , ,, , A, , , z. , I lie old faculty builduiq the vionunq after the est that Santa Clara had sufi ered.

I ' ledged support- ers, however, whose assistance was indispensable to the move, were, bv the 1906 financial depression, pre- vented for a time from donating any money ; and consequently the plan was tempor- arily dropped. The final decision, which was thus left hanging after 1906, was precipitated by the bm-ning of the Faculty Building: whether at Loyola or at Santa Clara, reconstruction had to begin at once. The Lovola idea was revived, but money had remained scarce, and at length Father Morrissey, the President, announced that the College would remain permanently on the Mission site at Santa Clara. The campus was then enlarged. Father Morrissey secured title to the heretofore public streets which ran through the campus, thus making a solid property of fourteen acres. Stables and ])oultrv yards which had been on the campus itself were removed to College projjerly some blocks awaw Flans were put under way for an extensive program of building. ( )n March 1 ' ' , 1 12, the new Administration Building, a reinforced concrete structure, was occupied by the faculty. It is now called Bergin flail, in honor of Thomas L F ergin, the first graduate of Santa Clara, who received the degree of luichelor of Arts in il 1X57. In Sei)tember of the same I year, the Senior class took pos- n session of the building now known — in honor of judge M. P.

Td allow s])ace U r the ereelioii of this huildiii,;;, it was neeessary to remove the Aiidit(M-ium from the corner of Franklin and Alviso Streets Imck across the campus to the corner of Franklin and Lafayette Streets. The next stej) was the preparation of the Universitv courses. The Law FacuUy was installed, the foundations of the College of Fngineering were laid, and the lahoratory work of the Science Department was so organized as to supply a distinct Pre-Medical Course. In due time then the lj(jard of Trustees took advantage of the rights contained in the Charter, and on June 16, 1912, Santa Clara College became the Lhiiversity of Santa Clara. The occasion was a momentus one ; and it was worthily celel)rated. The Arch- hishop of San Francisco, the Most Reverend P. W. Riordan, presided at the Com- mencement, and blessed the new buildings. .At least thirty-five thousand ])eople were on the ground. . notable parade marched through the town. Then followed a series of beautiful tableaux, designed by Professor Charles I). South and executed under his direction, which gave the historv of the site, from the old heathen day and the coming of the Friars, down to the very occasion (jf the celebratif)n. Among those who took an active ])art in this event were some alreadv well known in Cali- fornia ])ublic life, and others, then al the beginning of their career, who have since attained to places no less honorable. At the beginning of September following, the Universitv oi)ened its doors and entered upon its new existence, with the Institute of Law and the College of Engi- neering fully organized and equipped, and the old courses of Letters and Science greatly enriched to meet the larger needs of the new day. During the scholastic year that followed. Father James P. Morrissey continued in office, perfecting his work in its many details. Jiut the labor of reorganization had been great. The anxieties consequent upon a change so fundamental as that from College to University were more trying even than the labor. With shattered health he retired in August, PM,i, and Father Walter F. Thornton succeeded to the Presidency. His term of (jftice promised to be uneventful : for, as the Universitv was well estab- lished, its development would follow naturally, and would call for guidance rather than impulse. On April 6, 1917, what had for three years ])een an ever growing jjrobabilitv l)ecame a reality. The United States entered the Great War. This was a thing to be reckoned with. The universities of the land saw the neetl of assisting the (iov- The 1912 croivd ivatchimj Charles D.

And so Father Thornton, acting spontaneously, put the University unreserveflly at the service of the Government. In fact, Santa Clara was the very first of the universities to declare itself at the complete disposal of the War Department. Captain Joseph L. Donovan, the first Dean of the l ngineering De])artment, was placerl on active duty at Santa Clara, with the local rank of Colonel and as Professor of Military Science and Tactics. The University authorities furnished rifles for drill; the students provided their own uniforms. ( )rganization of the hattalion and its four companies became complete. The Universitv was transformed into a bar- racks. No longer did the electric bells of ( ) ' Connor Hall arouse the voung officers in the morning or summon the cadets to class. The strident notes of the bugle called the men to every duty of the day. Strict military discipline prevailed. So efficient was the manner in which the students responded to the efforts of their army tutors that, after the official inspection. Governor Stephens and a cor])s of army ofiicers of high rank gave a very laudatory report of the conditions thev found at Santa Clara; although hampered by jjoor e([uii)ment for drill, the institu- tion was nevertheless given the very highest military status. As testimony of Santa Clara ' s patriotism, a service flag of 5S5 stars, with eight in bright gold, commem- orates sons of Santa Clara who fought in their country ' s cause. During the great influenza epidemic of 1 ' 1X, l- ' ather Thornton ' s administration came to an end, and in the month of Xovember Ivilher Timothy L. Muri)h - became President of the L ' niversitv. This was, in great part, a ])erio(l of reorganization, for earlv in Father Murphy ' s regime came peace and consequent demobili- zation. The Universitv had to adjust itself to the old order of things after nearly two years of military discipline and rule. In June, 1921, Father Jerome T, I II ■ ,, ,1 w III I ■ , 1 S. Ricard, Padre of the Rains, 1 lie hull IS Innnvn mi the Mission l-ield dui ' imi llie Centennial Rodeo commemorated his golden jubi- (2)(d I 23 I lee as a Jesuit. The Mass which he celehrated in the inner garden was attended l)y a throng of achnirers. Shortly afterwards came Father Raggio ' s golden jul)i- lee. After laljors of over fifty years in University and parish, as chaplain, teacher, and pas- tor, Father Raggio ' s juhilee called forth a thousand affec- tionate congratulations from Cafftiring a nnimvay. i ' riitcniiial Rndco those he had served. At the main entrance to the campus the townspeople erected in his honor the Raggio (jate. In July, 1921, Father Mur])hv, whose health had heen precarious for some time, was succeeded liy Father Zacheus J. Maher, with whose advent came a new era of activity. February of the year following saw the publishing of the first issue of The Santa Clara, which took over in detail the work (jf the former Chronicle Editors of Tlic Redwood. In May, 1922, the University celebrated the Centennial of the present Santa Clara Mission. Martin Merle produced again his famous Ulission Play of Santa Clara, and afterwards, during three days, the crowds flocked to the Rodeo on Mission Field. The word on the Centennial brings us out of the past and definitely into the present. The few subsequent years, full of striving as they were, and rich in ful- fillment, have passed under our own eyes. The graduates of ' 26 saw the Alumni Science Hall go up in 1923, the gymnasium, engineering shops, and Kenna Hall in 1924, the Donohue Infirmary in 1925, and the Theater reconstructed this year. The achievements of Father Maher ' s Presidency we need not write down as history while they yet remain a living memory among us. And not entirelv a memory, for plans still reach ahead, and the work continues. But when it is done, when the future has completed the present, then the history of the work will already be written in enduring monuments.

Spiritual Advisor The Administration The y .dministrative Board began its work in the 1925-26 term with personnel unchanged. Beginning with fall semester in 1925, as a continuation of the program under which the College of Business Administration and the Pre-Medic al Depart- ment were originated, the P)Oard instituted three resident professorships : two in the College of Business Administration and one in the Pre-Medical Department. Mr. William P . Ryan and Mr. Ivlward J. Kelly took the Business Administration professorships, and Mr. Cornehus Hagcrtv the Pre-Medical professorship. The Board plans to add further to the roster of Colleges in the University by inaugurating in the fall semester a College of b ' ducation. The course in this college, to consist of four years ' undergraduate studv with one year post-graduate study, will lead to a teacher ' s certificate in General Secondary Pducation ; that is, it will qualify the graduate to teach in any high .school or junior high school. During the Christmas vacation, 1925, the Preparatory Department of the Univer- sity removed from Kenna Hall on the University Campus to a new campus of its own at College Park. This change takes the Preparatory Department out of the jurisdiction of the University Administration, under which it has functioned since 1851. The items in the building program for 1925-26 included the completion of the Donohue Memorial Infirmary, and the entire reconstruction of the interior of the Theater, with the im])rovement of its exterior. 28 ][ EuG.

Not unmindful of the truth that thought-developing education is hut a period of intensive coaching for the climatic game of life, they approach the great field of action firm in the convic- tion that the principles here expounded and imhihed will enahle them to stand suc- cessfully the supreme test of character. In the hattle which imijends, if the memhers of this class carry on unfalteringly with the mental, moral and religious aims sui)plied them hy .Santa Clara; if they adhere to her lofty ideals and uphold the traditions of her illustrious past; if they emulate the worthy examples which throng her alumni i)ageant all the vvav from Nohili, the founder, to Maher, builder for the expanding age; if they cling stead- fastly to the Christian heritage which crowns the culture and discipline of educa- tion — then truly will they have earned their Alma Mater ' s gratitude — then truly will they have augmented her wealth of honors while inscribing their names on the roll of those who have not failed. Departing from the classic abode of the fostering mother, a filial regret mingles with the joy of scholastic triumph. Those now crossing the threshold will look back to these historic precincts, and longingly recall the days when they conned philoso])hy in the olive shade that frames the Mission garden prodigal with flowers. Their college years have been replete with associations that will be treasured in the volume of the mind ; but dearest of the indelible memories will be the i)aternal love and guidance of the Jesuit blathers, whose ever-widening fame is the University of Santa Clara.

Charles D. South. f53 Whither the Tzventieth Qentury EDWARD i ' . MURPHY The age in which we Hve is a trving ' one for moral standards and ethical principles. ( )1(1 rules of order, fixed systems of thought and morality are being assailed on every side. The self-styled advanced intellectuals, the thinkers of our days have no faith in the validity of estal)lished laws. The gigantic advance in things material has paved the way for modernists to attack what they deem irksome restraints and narrow conventions. These moderns are fabricating new morals to keep abreast of the material advance of the world. Thev teach that parental authority should find no su])port in modern life; that the father ' s leadership in the home is based upon miglit and not right. ] esistance to parental authority is highly desirable. It enables the child, the ojjpressed victim of authority, to strike forth of itself and enjoy the new free- dom of the age. These false principles are taken up and translated into action by the youth of our day. Parental rule is I)ecoming weakened, children seek their pleasure awav from the family hearth. What is the cause of this laxity in modern society? What is responsible for the prevalence of youthful criminals? Lack of moral training is the answer. Lack of religion taught in the home and schools is the cause. False principles advocated by modern exponents of reform and constructive builders of new ethical codes are leading the present gener- ation into an abyss of lawlessness and individualism. The condition of society at the present time is bad enough as it is, but the relaxation in respect for authority and the attack upon morality is Ijecoming more alarming day by day. We of the affirmative maintain that the condition of society today will have a disastrous efi ect upon the people of the future. The coming generation will be inoculated with the poison of wrong thinking and wrong living ; they will be the victims of false morality ; they will find it quite difficult to obtain that final ha])piness for which they were eternally destined. This modern plea for greater license and a lessening of restraint includes a powerful assault against the permanency of marriage. What is the modern concept of marriage among our advanced intellectuals ? They consider it noth- ing more than a convenient joinder of man and woman that can be terminated as soon as interest decreases or fancy dictates. If this be so, then marriage is a mere experiment, a fragile union which may be, but most probablv will not l)e, permanent. But if the marital relation is a mere myth, if it is only a migratory union and not a firm and everlasting sacrament, then what is to become of the children of the.se mythical alliances? Is it anv wonder that children do not submit to the authority of their parents under such conditions. If this is the light in which marriage is considered, where are the children to receive their moral and religious training? Must we leave it entirely to the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts without the counsel of the mother? If we do, then we are sowing the seeds of storm which if not uprooted will threaten the very bulwark of society. Our psycho-analytic intellectuals with their inferiority complex and their sul)tle undermining declaration of independence are to blame for the divorce ff54l evil. They refuse to cunsider niarn ' a.i e as the kevsloiie of civil society. Nor is it a single grouj) of drawing-room sophisticates who espouse these principles. The evil is s])rea(ling far and wide, desjMte the effort of combined leaders in correct thought. More than that, these false i rinciples are being put into actual practice. Certainly those who are to follow us are not going to be better off mor- ally under such conditions. How can thev be, if in their own homes, the verv first beginning of their practical morality, there is no morality; the hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world. Nor will these ])resent-day evils diminish without concerted effort against them. In the very nature of things, conditions cannot under such circumstance automatically right themselves. For if, in the light of the past, we can with some degree of certainty judge of the future, and if in the light of the present and the past we may foretell what is to follow, then surely we must ])ity our grandchildren. There are many pernicious doctrines being spread abroad today. They are all finelv interwoven liv one common thread, the supremacy and independence of the individual. Deny yourself nothing ; gratify every passion, though heaven falls in the attempt. To be more s])ecific, let us direct oiu attention to a question that has engaged the minds of men quite recently — Evolution. I ' he pertinent point I want to bring out here, without discussing the theory, is that if man is de.scended from mudfish, or prehistoric chimpanzee, acquiring a soul and losing a tail in the ])rogress of the ages, then he is as he exists today, through his own doing, a result of the survival of the fittest. ITe has fought his way from prim- itive cell, through mud and mire and jungle ai)e to man ' s estate. If this be so, then morality is reduced to physical force and violence. Alan ' s rights conse- quently are subject to his capability in beating his rival into submission with a club, and his power to crush opposition. This theory, as it is generally taught, is tainted with rank animality; it leads to a lessening of moral restraint, such as is warping the fibres of society today. Glance at modern philosophy with its suggestive sentences whicli evidence a lessening of standards and principles. Too long have we been chained to the galleys of moralitv. Too long have we lost contact with the reality of life. Too long are we shackled by stupid principles of right and wrong. They would have us do away with duty and obligation. Translate your desires into actuality. Give people ' what they want. This is the stuff that is being fed to the inicler- graduates of our colleges and universities, ;uid iq)on such false founda- tions are they urged to erect their future activities in this workaday world. These are some of the i)rinciples that are responsible for our crime wave, oiu birth control, race suicide. It comes down to individualized moralit - and mechanical materialism, lilasting the lodestones of morality, such principles leave shifting .sands for the superstructure. These are the conditions in the world of thought and morality which oiu grandchildren will have to face. These evils are not lessening. They are being spread in the jjulpit, in the streets, in the press and in the most fertile ground of all, the classroom. The people of today are turning from the old and seeking to find ha])])iness in the waters of broken cisterns, and not in the true fountain Us of living waters. ' I ' lic ])C(i])le- of toniorrow will hear the hnmt of it all ; they will reaj) the harvest which the peiii k- of today have sown. After all, what is there worth while in this transient life if it he not the true idea of the i urpose of man upon earth. Destroying parental authority, you destroy the supreme authority of the creator. Satisfying individual whims and l assions vou prevent the end of man ' s e.xistence. Reduce morality to physical force and violence and vou lower man to the level of animality. This is pre- ciselv what modern thought is doing. During the last fifty years there has heen a decided change in religious feeling throughout society. Fifty years ago, openly to deny the existence of God was to ostracize oneself. Now it has hecome distinctly the fashion and is aiTected as an evidence of true enlightenment. )f course, there have always heen atheists, hut late years have shown a decided increase in the numlier. y theism ])ure and siiuple is heing taught Ijoth directly and indirectly in many of our leading institutions of learning throughout the countrw Regardless of whether or not its exponents are sincere, the fact remains that the idea of a supreme heing is scouted. Now, if the children to follow us are to he taught that there is no (jod, then they must know that there is no morality, no rule of right and wrong. That heing so, evervthing is allowahle to them. Where and how, under such condi- tions, are they going to attain the end for which they were eternally destined and to which they are l)oun(l voluntarily to tend. Modern inventions are worth naught in this life compared to the final end of man. They are at the most a means to attain a far greater end. If we make them our God, if we deify our ])Unv mechanisms, then we are rushing into ruin and desolation. In conclusion, I pity any generation that is taught that self-gratification is the first law of nature. I pity any generation taught to disrespect authority, for without authority no society can hope long to endure. I pity any generation that reverts to the paganism of Rome and the Caesars. I pitv any people who are taught there is no ( lod, for without (jod the universe will run stark mad into chaos.

Brennan. I 56]} QhouV s Tale A. S. In the year 1500 I came into Tours in the course of wanderings, and falling into rank indigence in that place. I set forth one night in the late Septemljer to open a grave that I knew of. Now as I came upon the street, a cei ' tain despair flowed over me like a coldness; the fancy of the hleak graveyard made me tremhle, for indeed the fire within me was all frozen. I remark this, only to show forth that curious dispensation of Providence ; namely, how there is an oracle within us, showing signs in cjur heart, and telling our future misfortunes ; so that we often fear things not horn yet, hy this suhtle augury. However, I proceeded along a dark street of the town ; a gusty, silent walk. My journey ' s end was a certain monastery, with an hour ' s lahor perhaps in the cold wet sod of the charnel ground. There were ahout a hundred stars in the deep sky, verv bright, as though burnished in the wind. This wind came un- steady, but it was verv strong, and had left scarce a leaf rattling among the l)lack cadavers of two elms. My monastery lay a good way across the city, along a devious, narrow lane of old houses. I met no one as I walked. But in the lulls I could hear my echo tramping frostily in I know not what hidden black intricacy of alley and court, and the sound walked with me like a companion. Doors and shutters rattled as I passed ; the wind sported raucously in huddled eaves over the street, and once a sudden gust laid a swallow ' s nest fairly at my feet, whence the unfortunate creature started up into the darkness with a single wailing cry. My spirits rose beyond belief ; the blood flew through mv head ; and the cold blew like a sweet- ness into my nostrils. In this way I came to the mcjnastery, sitting on level ground in the verv heart of the town. It seemed very impressive, rearing back into the ill-defined shadow, and indeed there is no doubt whatever, it is a monstrous, uncouth edi- fice, with corridors and corners like a hive. The chapel, which they have put east of the burying ground, might very well do for a bishop. It had very tall windows, and a tower at the back looking far away over to the walls of the town. The habitation of the monks frowns from two sides more upon the graves ; the C(jurt lying open to the north save for a difficult wall. In a bit of tall dead grass under this wall 1 fomid pick, spade and lantern, all precisely as 1 had left them. How to get these over was a (juestion for me ; if I cast them over before me, they might light upon a monument, and there would be a noise then to wake the ijeople of the charnel ; it would bring the whole monastery down about my ears anyway, there was no doubt of that; and the lantern I was particularly fearful for, being so fragile. Finally I cast them over with my cloak about them, and followed them without turning a pebble. A faint, leaping glow shone through a window of the chai)el , but shed no ray upon the darkness outside. Under the sills a company of voung asjiens was rattling merrily — lull or gust — for all the world, like armor and swords in a fight. The monastery slept; no whisper from the walls, no -a w ) burning for student or saint. My abbe ' s grave lay in the center of that broad plot, full in the starlight, but there was no help for that, so I fell to work upon the mound, with no light but a thread through the shutter of the lantern at the gravehead. f57l Ml ' - 1 made gf)od progress, for the grave was new, l)ut the husiness palled on me ere T had sjxided long, and I sat upon the stone pretty often to draw hreath. h ' or one thing, the trade seemecl .all out of proportion ; I was doing a work damned hv all the prayers and hlessings of the living over the dead ; and the fall of the jMek sounded harsh in the quiet gloom of the cemetery ; I was doing a most terrihle work under the clear light of heaven, with the wind playing ahout, and sleep Iving upon all the monastery. I thought it strange that in so secret a task I should he lahoring like a man cutting the grain in his fields. And the idea of one lying down in the starless night, under the lock and bolts of the sod, where nobody could hear him if he called — I tell you, that staggered me. I delved down, anyhow, but when the spade thudded upon the cofTin, I turned away sick, and sat upon the brink for a while, all on fire in that cold wind. Presentlv I heard a voice whisper ( )-ho! very cpiietly above me, the sound trailing off into the breeze. The wind fell sud denly, and a marvelous dead still- ness stopped my breath. T knew there was a head somewhere in the high darkness of that building, leaning over the sill and peering at me quite steadily, but 1 swear to God 1 hadn ' t the courage to look. So T sat there in that grave, and li.stened till T might have cried out, meanwhile running the cool dirt from one hand to the other like a simi)leton and staring hard at the frost vapor rising about the hot lantern at the gravehead. I have no guess how long I continued in this posture, l)efore a chain rattled and a bolt slid very softly behind me. The noise set me l)reathing again, and I whii)ped out of that grave in a moment. )ver near the corner of the chapel a monk was standing in a doorway, holding a lantern close to his ear; his face very white in the shadow of his cowl. I knew he was looking for me in the dim starlight; then, in a moment or so, he nodded a little. Well, I could have been over the wall and gone as well as no, but T had courage now after seeing whom I had to do with. So I walked over to him slowly among the graves. God preserve you, said I to the monk. And he looked at me for awhile, calmly enough, with his narrow pale eyes; so miserable and thin, I found pity for him in my heart. W ' hy, said he at last, why do you come in the darkness to rouse a blessed old man from his resting grave? 1 told him I knew this grave had some chalices in it, with other gold things ; and I was poor. And why, said I, do you come down here in the darkness, all alone? If I wanted to take you T should have waked the house, answered the friar softly, and then you should have been hanged, vou should surely have been hanged. But — and he looked at the floor and passed his fingers over the breast of his habit — you see — my profession. It is our belief that the good which comes from the gallows is sometimes doubtful, but there is no doubt at all about the grace of (iod. And so I shall send you awav, and you must not resist the grace of God. Well, I was at a loss for any answer to so odd a speech, and stood silent for a time. But then thoughts of my purpose came back into my head again. If I want, I said, I can make you lead me to your chapel, where you have gold and silver lamps, and cups set with jewels, as is well known. ... I can do this if I want. 5« At this the monk, with a quiet suddenness, shifted himself so as to hlock the doorway. And while up to then I had not known what I should do, this swift motion was like a signal both to fear and holdness, and I leapt against him. As I took hold of him, I felt his nails in my cheek, and his arm trembling like grass with an angry desperation, and I stabbed him almost ere I thought. His grasp loosened and I laid him on the floor of the corridor very gently, all his passion blown out like a candle. And I declare I felt sorry for him, with his thin, nervous face, and his great, impotent earnestness. I had as soon dreamed of killing a child as him, but the thing was done now, and there was nothing for it but to wipe the knife clean upon his robe and seek safety. I saw one thing plainly — I would never finish work on the abbe; it was dangerous as I had been shown, and that ' s the first point ; but I thought how his hair would blow in the wind when the coffin was opened, and swore he could lay till I3oomsday for my part. Then a great longing to be gone from that place came upon me like a wind : to be down among the houses, deep in the eddying night ; to see the clean, cold stars in the sky ; to hurry down the long alleys of the town, where I could not hear the dead monk, if he should sit up and call — my heart sang to think of it ! I looked out upon that dark necropolis and was very much horrified at the peace that lay over it. The crosses leaned in stricken attitudes ; my lantern still burned quietly at the grave ; and lieyond, a dim huddle of houses was piled against the sky — all quite silent under the starlight. I was at the door when I turned round to see that the monk was up to no mischief ; this was ridiculous enough, I suppose, but I was like a child, fearful even of ghosts. The monk lay on his l)ack liy the wall, the flame quite haj py and steady in his lantern. And at that moment a number of keys fell from a fold of his robe, with a sweet ringing noise upon the stones ; and there they lay in the light, all agieam and silvery. Well, you must not suppose f was not torn one way and another with a great number of desires ; for inwardly I was a ground for a multitude of devils, all at swords drawn, and making an inconceivable clamor. But all the while I was tossed about by this dissension, I was laying hands on those silver keys, and working at the cord, and I remember the harsh and ghastly sound of my own breathing. Anyhow, I took up the lantern of the monk, and came, .scarce willing it, to the inner door of the chapel ; down a gross black passage of the monastery ; shivering lest any accusing sound disturb the stillness, or any ray point his finger at me. The air in this corridor was moving and wet, and foul, I thought, too, like the effluvia of a marsh at night, or the air of caves. And when one of the keys loosed the door of the chapel, it came open of itself ponderously, and a great river of wind overwhelmed me, and poured by with a mighty strength, but silent as a gh(jst. I pulled the great door closed with a quiet struggle, and stood with a loud breast in that great hollow of winds, where the echoes talked constantly among the rafters, and the oil taper at the altar swayed gently so that shadows were always roving about the edifice, which seemed to swav to the oscillations of a huge pendulum. This wind frightened me so that my heart pained. At what portal came it ? Wherefore was it not sealed ? And here it came to my mind that some others might now be in the church upon my own errand, which was to rob it, and I could have cried out. While I waited, there 59 1 was always overlicad the sound likr the scurrvin! ' of rats, and always the soui hins ' of the wind under the rooi ; uothini; else, though I gave ear as long as J thought prudent. I had now gained sufficient courage, and ran to a Hat altar, where a company of gold candlesticks was glowing duskily in the small, (|uiet flame of the lamp. And of a sudden, with nothing to foretell, the hell hegan overhead upon its twelve peals, clear and shar]), and loud as though the tongue struck at mv ear; and the darkness shook al)out me. Ihit despite fear, I was out of that chapel where I had come in, before I had drawn tw(j breaths. Outside I heard a prodigious sound of doors closing all about me, and the patter of feet upon the stone floors. All this seemed to be descending f rtjm the stories above, so I was well pleased to find a stairs that wound downward, to what depth I knew not, and upon this I instantly retreated. I paused after a considerable time, to find all the noise died awav, and my breathing sounding tremendous in that narrow place. I had as vet come to no landing place, so continued to descend : all the while thinking it was a strange l)rotherhood that would Iniild so devious and mysterious a place. I came out upon a lloor at last, 1 should sav about sixty feet down. I stum- bled frecpiently as I prodded aboul, due lo the uneven surface of the floor, which was no more than dirt; and the light burned ill in that low air. I desired to return some other way than I had descended, and thus to escape, so I wandered into far corners of that gloomy cavern, having no guess how deep it might extend. And I was somewhat astonished on coughing to hear the echo wander for some moments afterward in the resounded grotto, rolling around like a stone in the great vault, and dying in what unvisited hole I know not. As I stood, fearing to make a sound, I became aware of a loud tapping on the wall before me, and lifting the lantern di.scovered a great number of wasps stumbling about a nest ot clav, and was horrified to ol)serve in a corner a bat regarding me intently with its small eyes. Indeed, I could not restrain a slight exclamation of loathing, and at this the creature flew off, and was heard fluttering about the ceiling for a long period. I was now plunged into something of a i)anic, having discovered no new retreat from the cellar, and having, indeed, lost all trace of entrance into the place. And my delight was very great to c«ime at last upon an ascending stair, ' idiis 1 made all haste to climl), and could have sung when I came out upon a corridor, but it was a vain enough happiness in the end, for the corridor proved very short, with no window whatever, and no visible means of egress, save the closed doors, which I feared to try. Well, thought I, there is nothing for this, but the stairs again. So I climbed upwards, hearkening with every step, since I knew I had now come to the inhabited part of the house. But I found the corridor above made to the very likeness of the one below, and at this discovery, which I thought boded ill for me, a great fear smote me like a blow. So f continued to wind upward, alwavs in the fluid circle of the lamp ; and I was not less quiet than the light which went along with me ; and then I grew a little in awe of my silent companion, and desired to be alone in the dark ; but I was afraid of the dark, too, not knowing what I might stumble on, or what hooded vigilant I might encounter. f6o I came out at last upon a corridor longer than the others ; and was now upon the topmost story of the l)iiilding, under the very eaves, for I could hear the wind purling upon the roof like a ])rook among stones, and every tiniher was restless, and I felt a strong current of sweet air Itreathing in that place. Here, as before, no window gave upon the outside; and I confess this was the chief burden on my spirit that T could in no way see the stars and the town. But the lamp found out a descending stair, which I essayed immediately with all hope ; and which put me down in a passage running counterwise to the others. I explored this in quaking fear of the doors ; and behind one heard a little dry cought, that ceased in a moment, but set the echoes Hying in my breast. y nd there was my window here, either. Well, this course went on for a while; and meantime the bell in the tower sounded one, with astonishing loudness ; so that I was led into a dismal train of reflection : for all my wandering I still lay in the monastery, and I might wander in that place till morning, and should still hear that l ell, and still wander in a passage. And thus I grew to despair and frenzy, and even a sort of madness ; so that I Ijelieved I should never see the light of the sky again. And all the while I crept through every devious wav in the liuilcling ; sometimes with a soft swift- ness that would crack vour heart ; and other whiles I would lie quite still, and listen and look alxnit in the darkness, my fingers moving in my beard con- tinuously. Indeed, I tried at last to retrace my way, but was in so perturbed a posture of mind that I had no strength to remember. And now by some chance I had climlied up again till I heard the wind flowing high above me ; and in a moment I set eyes upon a little flight going higher, and exclaimed inwardly that here lay the path to the tower. And in a moment I had embarked upon it, thinking it would be better than life or wealtii to l e under the eye and light of heaven. And as I went up the wind cried upon the f(jur sides, and wound up with me; so that I believe I have never heard a more pleasant sound. And as I came out, the l)ig stars were shining, and the wind filled me with the purity of the sky, and the loud aspen sounds flew up into that height, wing u])on wing, like Ijirds. The houses were sleeping far out into that dim night, God was in his heaven, and in my veins rapture was singing. And then I looked back up jn the roof of the chapel and saw the dead monk coming toward me quite slowly and carefully, with his head down, for he trod perilously upon the edge. His robes were flying in the wind, with loud noises, and leaping like flame. And when he was near, he showed his face, very white, like fog, under the cowl, and a fearful grin upon it. He looked down upon the graves, and then with a great silent cry, he leapt from the rampart and fell far down into the shadow. Hereupon my tongue was loosed, and I screamed to the stars out of the tower ; and no word was formed, but only the most hideous sounds, as though I were damned. And presently the monks came quietly to the tower ; and here- upon I grew silent ; and they led me away with no sound. But as we went down, the wind fell all still, and the dogs were howling in the town. . . .

Rev. John D. Walsiie, S. J. I 64 T hert Ozven JOHN COUGHLIN Amidst the sad and silent surroundings of their dad ' s favorite room, shiftlessly accepting the comforts afforded hy the inviting folds of large over- stuffed, leather-covered chairs, three hoys awaited the arrival of their father ' s attorney. As the trusted lawyer entered the lihrary of the family ' s country home on this, the night of their father ' s death, he found the sons of the late Silas A. Cox. Not one of them suspected that they were gathered together to hear the reading of their father ' s will. Following his instructions, the old gen- tleman ' s legal advisor drew from an inner pocket a large envelope, hroke the seal, and removed from it the last will and testament of Silas A. Cox. Its form and suhstance, as revealed hy the reading, were perfect exemplifications of the streak of eccentricity of character and weirdness of manner which possessed its author. In his calm and unsympathetic voice, the attorney, after reading the very lengthy and detailed will, which in the main liequeathed and devised all the dead man ' s property to his three sons, read on, With hut one proviso, which is this : That they shall remain at mv countrv home for three successive days follow- ing the midnight of my death, and keep vigil over my dead hody as follows : Arthur, my eldest son, shall keep watch from the first midnight until the following; he shall he relieved hy John, my second son, who shall stay with me until the next midnight, when William, mv youngest, shall take up the vigil and continue it until the following midnight. i efore heing relieved, each one of them must sign, and seal in an envelope ]M ovided for that purpose, a statement to the following effect, ' 1 . . . did keep vigil over my father ' s l)odv heginning on the midnight of . . . and con- tinuing until the midnight of . . .

' If any one of my sons shall fail to fulfill all of these conditions, or shall fail to attend my funeral for any reason whatsoever his share shall he inherited hv my good and faithful servant, Rohert ( )wen. Signed hy me on the twenty-second day of March, Nineteen hundred and ten. Sil. s A. Cox. What a queer old pop he was ! Eut his word had ever been law to them, and now, out of a sense of duty, even more than from the desire to inherit the fortune he left heliind him, did tlie hovs express their readiness to take up their task, for such it was, at (jiice. The hour of twelve was close at hand, and as the clock in the lihrarv hegan to strike off its twelve strokes, . rthur arose and proceeded to the room where his father had been placefl. It was a large front room which overlooked the spacious grounds that lay before the house; with it were linked memories, for, at appropriate times, this spacious place had been the reception room for many a happy party. Now the large, well furnished and b,eavv-dra])erie(l i arlor l)es])oke but the message given forth by the casket which, from the rooin ' s 5 center, governed and dominated the atmosphere, demanded and obtained silence, tlie silence that comes with death. As the eldest son entered, he seemed to add lnU another piece of lifeless furnitnre to the gray interior; a dark- comjjlexioned chap in his thirties, with dee])]y set, shadowed eyes, which were burdened as with the weight of much sadness. He ])aused, glanced at the coffin as if to make a mental measurement, then located a chair beside a table u])on which a lamp threw out the only gleam of light that filtered through the room. A sigh, a heavy swallow, and a wearv lioih- lowered itself into the massive chair. Arthur picked up a book and began to read, page upon page were fingered and turned. Dawn, daybreak, morning, dusk, twilight, night, all came and went. The hours passed slowly as any hour might in the silence of a large room, guarded bv the angel of deatli and broken only by the occasional creak fnmi some unattributable source, not to mention those tormenting noises which fciund their disturbance and distraction, their source and end only in the imag- ination. Then for the third time within the past twenty-four hcjurs, the two hands of the vigil-keeper ' s watch once more met at the number twelve, it was midnight. At almost the same instant there appeared at the door the dapper figure of the second son, John, interested chieily in the cloud of smoke in which a cigar- ette was consuming. A tall boy, with a high forehead that extended well back as if in an etTort to overtake the flight of a head (jf well-groomed shining dark hair. A little mustache added its tone of audacity, while dark eyes spoke the thought of shrugged shoulders. John was there because his dad had said so, and the sooner this foolishness was over the better. The same roomy, com- fortable looking chair, by the same table, under the shower of the same mellow light caught his eves, and he started in its directicjn. Not a word had been spoken between the brothers. Arthur had walked over to a desk near the casket ; signed the statement designated in his father ' s will ; placed the bit of paper in an envelope provided for the purpose ; sealed it. The conditions of his father ' s last expressed wish having been fulfilled, he now passed behind his younger brother to make his exit. .A sharp, struggling, strangling cry, My ( iod ! My throat! Leave go! brought John to a sto]). He wheeled about only to see his brother fall to the floor. In a moment he was at his brother ' s side. The momentary writhing ceased; the groan of a prayer hushed; the serious saddened eyes became a staring, .stony bit of expressionless glass. His brother was in the unredeemable hands of death. In a short time the calm of the country night was broken by the hum and 1)urr of the siren ; first an aml)ulance ; then the patrol summoned from the nearest post by the frantic occupants of the house of the queer vigil. With the patrol came Captain (_) ' l rien, who, relying on an instinct that hard experience had drilled into him, lost not a minute in picking up any clue that might clear the mystery. With a precision ahnost mechanic in its action he gathered together all the evidence that he thought necessary for a working liasis. When a thorough search of the premises revealed nothing or no one, he left two officers to guard the house and then departed. {[66 Ill the nieaiitiiiie Jdliii remained faithful to his father ' s last wish, llie doiii- inatin,ii ' intliience which the dead man had over his children survived even after his death. The hours passed more slowly than ever, and hecame more monot- onous ; the silence more deafenint;-; the psychic figures more tormenting. No dungeon was ever more drastic in its requirements of solitude. Dawn, day- 1)reak, morning, dusk, twilight, night, and finally the hour of twelve. The youngest son a])peared in the doorway prepared to relieve his hrother. To John, the appearance of this hoy-like chap, just away from college, fair haired with eyes of hlue, and a picture of slovenly primpness, was welcomed more than ever. - ;; The second son then arose from his chair and walked to the desk where lay the statement to he signed. He signed his name ; enclosed the paper in the envelope; sealed it and was ahout to leave the room when the jingle of the telephone hell on the desk caused him to retrace his steps. Having reached the chair which seemed to attract the attention of all the sons upon their entrance to the room, William glanced around just as the hell had ceased its ring. At that very moment he heard his hrother ' s cry, My God ! My throat ! Leave go ! ' In straining his eyesight so as to clear up the mellow- ness of the light cast over the room, he could hut make out the figure of his brother in a loose, weak-kneed posture, with his hands tugging at his collar as he crumpled to the floor. It was the same groan, the same thud that John had heard the night before. In a few mc ments William reached that fatal spot to see the same bulging eyes, the same puffed throat, the same glittering, glaring, ghastly emotionless expression that was l)eheld in the oldest l rother ju.st twenty-four hours before. The household was in a flurr} ' , with its few occupants dashing back and forth, in and out, phoning and waiting. A few seconds later detective O ' Brien hurried in, wondering why his phone call had not been answered. He arrived at his conclusions c(jncerning the death of Arthur too late to save the life of John. O ' Brien then went through the same motions Arthur and bihn had gone through, with one exception, however, he did not seal the envelojje. 1 ) a man of his police experience the conclusion was almost inevitable. The glue on the envelope! Yes, that had something to do with the deaths of the two older brothers. A hasty analysis of the glue on the third envelope revealed that the innocent-looking lla]) harbored the deadly cause of cleath — a mixture of hydrocyanic acid. The most baffling scheme of all times ; a .scientific murder, said the cai)tain. But who did it? was the natural incpiiry of one of the officers. Even to the man who admitted this to be the most hidden of all schemes, its proposer was not so hidden. There lay the third envelope, the death trap, all set. and with its sealing so would be the life of the youngest son. But one other party was inter- ested in the lives of all three sons ; but one who would have had anv motive for killing all three; but one other mentioned in the will. Why, ( )wen ! The servant Owen ! Have you got him, Pirown? 67 ' - f.

CAMERON The American Army has seen service in all ])arts of the world, and it was my good fortune to he with a detachment of troo ps stationed in the Philippine Islands, one of our most picturesque and colorful possessions. There are many military posts on these islands, and the one at which we were was on the Island of lolo, in the Sulu Archipelago. To the south of us was I- ritish North Borneo, not far from the ecpiator. The vegetation of the island was luxurious, and inland, in the forests, could he found orchids, el)ony, and mahogany wood trees, some teakwood, and other rare tropical growths. These forests were inhabited by tribes of natives called Moros. Thev were originally Negritos, but inter-marriages with Chinese, Malays, Japanese, and other tribes has greatly altered their former racial char- acteristics, and they are a mongrel breed. It was to keep these savages in order, anrl to protect white trarlers, that the army was stationed in this out-of-the-way island. P)y some means, these Moros were Mohammedans, and had some curious beliefs. ( )ne of them was to the effect that if they killed a Christian they would ride on a white horse to Heaven.- Consequently, they did their best to secure a place in the celestial cavalry, and it was not safe to trust one ' s life outside the city walls. Before entering the walled city of the white men, each Moro is searched for concealed weapons and made to deposit them until leaving. Their favorite weapon is a bolo, a long, wicked knife, capable of disemboweling a man with one stroke. The constant guarding against religious outbreaks, the insects, foraging bands of monkeys, and the tropical heat does not tend to make this post a true Paradise. Lying so close to the equator, in fact, within six degrees of it, the climate is truly a tropical one. There are two seasons, a wet and a drv season. During the period of the rains, it may rain steadily for a week at a time, or there mav be but four or five heavy showers a day, interspersed with sunshine. In the drv season, it is dry for six months on end, and the onlv rains will be those brought in bv a vagrant storm. When the rains are expected, preparations are made for them ; roofs are carefully gone over and repaired, gutters are cleaned and patched, while del- icate plants are protected from the direct force of the heavy drops. The rains are a great Ijoon to the country, filling the reservoirs, removing the accumulated refuse of the hot weather, and cooling the atmosphere to a fairlv comfortable temperature. During the hot, dry months, when the summer monsoons are blowing, time hangs very heavily on one ' s hands. The monthly or semi-monthly arrival of the mailship from Manila breaks the monotony, and the entire post sallies out to see her. Besides mail and news (.)f the world, she often carries such delicacies as fresh meat and American-prepared foods. Occasionally there are newcomers. 69 who are made welcome, or some of the former members of the post are carried away, and are envied. The nights are as warm as the days, and the breezes die down at sunset. Overhead l)lazes the Southern Cross, and the otlier constellations never seen in our Northern latitudes. The darkness seems made of l)lack velvet, full of rips and tears, through which can be seen a background of silver. From the bar- racks comes a few sounds of revelry, ])Ut this soon dies out, leaving an awful silence. One diversion that can be pleasurably indulged in is that of swimming. The waters are as clear as the air, and fisli and pebbles may be easily seen at a depth of thirty or forty feet. However, this sport is rendered precarious 1)v the numerous sharks which infest the waters. At times parties were made up to visit the islands lying around us. The most interesting of these are those of British North Borneo. These English posses- sions are full of game, and good hunting is possible there. But after the rains come, there is nothing to do but sit within doors and hope for a short wet season. J ' Lven during the rains the mosquitos, flies, and other winged pests are active. They make sitting upon one ' s veranda an impossibility. One cannot spread mosquito netting entirely around the house so as to exclude all the insects ; hence it is necessary to keep within doors. A day would dawn with that beauty only to be found on islands, and only on those islands near the equator. The sun would rise majestically from out of the sea, l:)ringing with it all the colors of the rainbow. The sky would be blue and serene, and all would point to a hot summer day. Then, on the horizon, in the direction of the prevailing wind, would rise a small l)lack cloud, no larger than a pocket handkerchief. In half an hour it would assume immense proportions, overcasting the ,sky and reducing the light to a dusk like that of twilight. Then the rain ! It came down with a fury breathless to behold. So fa.st would the drops follow one another that it seemed as if the air were tilled with shining steel rods. The force of the water was terrific, and the rattle on the roof resem- bled a bombardment with lead shot, or iron pellets. The roofs were, for the most part, constructed of corrugated iron, and reverberated under the rain- drops. The etTect was not imlike that produced in a boiler factorv, or by sev- eral compressed-air riveting machines in operation at once. The din would con- tinue until it would seem to be i)ermanent, then suddenly abate and dwindle to a few scattered raps. The shower would pass. The ears, accustomed to the fearful racket, would be unal)le to hear ordinary sounds for several seconds. Then, as normal hearing returned, the sound of dripping, gurgling, and run- ning water would be heard. The sun would stream out in full force and fill the air with clouds of steam. Cocoanuts, palm-fronds, leaves, and other forms of vegetation would strew the ground, while deep gullies would be gutted from the soft earth of the streets. At first sight this vast display of natural forces was interesting, but soon a reaction would set in, especially when one would consider that this sort of thing- was to go on for manv months. r I 70 - - tVS It was inv niisldrtunc- lo 1)c cau,L;IU in our ol iIk ' sc uiicx])ccte(l sUiniis while on a trip. The experience was aniusint; ' , and aptly illustrates the va.t aries of tropical climates. A few soldiers and I had gone in search of small game, reputed to he in the grassy foothills hetween the lowlands and the wo(xled hillsides. We expected to reach the shelter of the trees l)efore noon, Init had followed some fresh trails and were delayed. We decided to eat before going on, and accordingly halted in the middle of a plain. We had just finished a light meal when, without five minutes ' warning, a raincloud freely gave us oi its contents. There was nothing we could do hut grin anfl bear it, which we did with as much fortitude as possible. The shower was not long, but we were drenched to the skin and verv uncom- fortable. I was in favor of Ijuilding some sort of fire and drying (jut a trifie, but the soldiers, wise in the ways of the country, said : Just you keep your clothes on. The sun will dry them in no time, and maybe if you dry them bv a fire another shower would come along and soak you again. I was rather .skeptical, but, as thev were not willing to wait, there was nothing to do but go on with them. Although the time was slightly longer than thev had predicted, my companions were correct, and the sun had dried m - clothing. It was a most peculiar sensation, that of being within a suit of steaming clothes. It was similar to being in a suit when it is sent to the cleaners. The island was finite rich with pearls. .Some of the world ' s finest pearls are found there, and the natives do all the work of gathering them. They are ex- cellent divers and swimmers, and utterly fearless. Uue to their religious beliefs, they consider that their deaths are foreordained. This makes them of ines- timable value in pearl diving. They do not fear the shark, will dive where other men will not, will go deeper, and stay under water longer than other men. If one of their number is attacked and killed by a shark, the remainder look upon the death as a mere incident in the dav ' s work. The Moros are cruel and bloodthirsty. It is a strange thing to see how eagerly they look for opportunities to slav the white people. The whites are their masters and make them work. The Moro detests work as nmch as the American Indian detested it, believing that the onlv thing men should do is hunt, fish, make war, or loaf. I left the island after a two years ' sojourn. ( )ur detachment was to be re- placed with other troops, and we were going back to the States. That is the only bright spot in an islander ' s life, going iiome. Thev count the months, weeks, days, and even hours before the transport is due. If bv anv chance the boat is a day or so late, they are terribly dis.appoinlcd and angry, being desirous of leaving as soon as possible. As the tran.sport steamed out, the town could be clearly seen, with its wall, fort, and native village behind it. It had been our home for two years, but the exj)eriences did not allow us to hold much .sentiment towards it. We rounded a cape and lost sight of it forever. We went to Manila, trans-sliipped on a trans- port going to San i -ancisco, and left the islands behind us. 6 (c) ff7i| The Brave RICHARD HASSLER ' J ' he lazv waves were lapping at the wet and .gieaniint; sands, and overhead the moon of the southern seas hung like a giant pearl in the sky. The night was still save for the niurmer and gurgle of the foam as it crept toward the land. As we sat there upon the moonlit sands the earthy laughter of the hlacks gathered around their cam])fires floated to us upon the soft air, and, ahove, the gleaming stars twinkled ap] rovingly at the trancfuil scene. We .sat so, in silence, Hassan and 1, and then I turned to him and said, Hassan, tell me a story. P)Ut I ' ve already told you all I know, he replied, wishing me to heg him further. Ihit 1 love (iur stories, i lassan ; i)lease, just one. Would vou like to hear an old song? he i)rotifered. 1 assented eagerlv, whereupon, in the soft chanting tone of the .Aral), he recited : High u])on lowering clilTs crawled a ser])ent ; there lie curled and slid sleej)- ily, catching the welcome ravs of the morning sim. . t the foot of the cliffs the waves l)eat heavily on the jagged rocks, lashing themselves to glistening sprav and fcjam. Furiously they Ijeat, hut were repulsed, yet always they threw themselves hack once more on the great stones he fore them. Fiercelv the sun heat upon the cliffs, and the serpent lay happily in the hiast of its heat, for he was ((uite content and wanted naught. Suddenly onto the cliffs where he lav a mountain hawk fell fnjm heaven, its feathers hroken, its hreast dahhied with hlood. .Marmed, the serpent retreated hastily, hut seeing the hawk ' s misfortune he crawled over to where the dying hird lay and hissed directly into its face. ' You are hadly hurt, swift one. The dving hird raised its dahhied hreast on hroken wings and sighed. Yes, I am dying — hut oh! I have lived gloriously, for I have soared high in the heavens ; I have flown upward into the very castle of the sun itself ; yes, close to the seat of the gofls — and now, I am d ' ing. ( )h ! if I could onlv know once more the swift rush of air ; to ascend, to float idly, to dart far downward, then to fly to the heavens once again. ' So the hawk spoke, and wdien it had ended its head drop])ed wearily. The .serpent looked into its fast dimming eyes and saw an unutterahle longing there. Then the serpent gazed around him for some manner to help the dying one ; he saw the cliff ' s edge, where far lielow the greenish water churned and hissed, and he said, ' Perhaps O swift one, if you can but bring yourself to the cliff ' s side, you may fall over, and falling thus lift your wings and so fly once more. On hearing these words the drooping bird lifted its head, ft fought with fast ebbing strength to reach the verge of the cliff, ft reached the brink and I 72 ,L;a .e(l down n])()n llic rout hened rocks framed in healing foam. Then it launched it:. elf over the rim. The wings fluttered faintly an instant, then like a plummet the hrave l)ird fell into the foam and was gone forever. N(jw the ser])ent wondered at this, and he philosophized on the death of the hawk. ' Silly creature, to leave this warm earth and lly far up into the coldness (jf the clouds. Poo ! We have more sense and remain on the ground, safe from the horrors of a ghastly fall. So he argued, but still he admired the hawk even in death. Long he reasoned. He saw the attacking waves far beneath, he saw the vast heavens which the brave bird had explored, and he heard a song that the waves and the clouds sang. Then the serpent said t(j himself, ' If I can but tor a moment soar into space as did the hawk, then I too should at least know some small bit of the urge which moved the swift one to his death. ' And at once the serpent coiled like a s])ring; then lashed u]) mightilv toward the heavens. J or an instant his body gleamed in the air, but then he fell l)ack onto the ground, bruised though not badly hurt. He lay an instant dazed, then a great exultation welled up within him. Vov now the serpent knew the meaning of the tbght of the bird, and the .song of the waves. They alone had striven ; what matter if they met defeat? What matter if the brave hawk were stilled after the cold rush of death? liven now, in the profound tones of the charging waves among which the hawk had perished, the Hill to Strive was carried to his ears, as in a divine song. And the serpent was at peace, for he too had striven, even as thev. ... The dying fires were glowing rubies in the night. The sleeping blacks no longer gave earthy laughter to the soft air. The faint breeze had died away, and only the moon seemed the same, for it hung great in the skv. A fisher boy stands on the drift-strewn shore, ( )utlined ' twixt sea and skv : His father sailed the night before. A fisher l)oy stands on the drift-strewn shore. His mother sits at the lonelv door, A teardrop in her eve. A fisher boy stands on the drift-strewn shore, ( )utlined ' twixt sea and sky. Elmo A.

And when the dawn rose ruddy or was grey, And when the sun set idly in the sea, I felt upon my weary cheeks the spray ; ' Twas all the freshness of His love for me. A hand in mine? His hand in mine, no more; A cheek ' gainst mine His cheek I said must be. And thus we wandered by the sounding shore. I listened while His wavelets spoke to me, Spoke of His wrath, spoke of His love. His fears, That though 1 kissed I still might Judas be. And if I kissed once more, while fell my tears. My tears were love and He my love to me. Down through the streets where hums the busy town We passed, I loving. He loved with me. A poor man begged, I answered with a frown; He left me there with my inicpiity. COURTENAY PrICE. The Redwood. October, 1912. f CHAPEL The Chapel The dignity of divine service has al- ways 1)een generously and appropriately provided for at Santa Clara. The first chapel was hegun in 1854 l)v h ' ather Nohili himself. It was of gothic design, and heing made of brick was perhaps the most su1:)Stantial build- ing so far erected. It was situated not far from the site of the present Memo- rial Chapel, but faced to the north. This chapel was unfortunately the occasion of Father Nohili ' s death. While supervising its erection he re- ceived an injury which later developed into tetanus, and he passed away on the The Old Chattel first of March, 1856. Very appropriately, as he had requested, he was laid to rest before the altar of the chapel he was building when he died. But this chapel met the fate which was dealt out to all similar structures by the great earthquake of ( )ctober 21, 1868. It was weakened beyond the possi])ility of repair, and being unsafe for further use was torn down. With the disastrous earthquake fresh in his mind, it was natural that Father Varsi, who was President at the time, should rebuild with wood one such as could withstand earth tremors. This wooden chapel not being on the same site as the old brick structure. Father Nobili ' s body was exhumed and transferred from where it had rested for the twelve years previous to the i arish church, where it still remains, near the pulpit. The temporary wooden chapel of Father Varsi remained in use tmtil Father Kenna ' s presidency, when it was moved toward Franklin Street, between the present site of the Seifert Gymnasium and the reconstructed liall. It was used for vari(nis purposes until Father Morissey ' s time. June 6, 1887, was a day dear to the heart of blather Kenna, for it saw the ince])- tion of his most cherished project — it saw the laying of the cornerstone of a new substantial chapel. It was to be a Memorial Chapel of Santa Clara College, and was erected in honor of the Immaculate Conception of the |-)lessed Virgin Mary. Work progressed rather slowly, judging by our jjresent-day standards, and it was not until October 8, 1888, Rosary Sunday, that the new chapel was finally dedicated. Reverend Father Sasia being the preacher of the occasion. The first Mass, however, was delayed until the patronal feast of the edifice — December 8. This is the chapel in use at present; it has, therefore, done constant service since December 8, 1888, a period of thirty-eight years. The earthquake of 1906 damaged it considerably, but repairs were made and it continued in use. Though it was begun as far back as Father Kenna ' s lime, this chapel was and is far from a finished product. The exterior was really never completed. 1 ' aj hi-.k KI ' .iX . a The picture over the main altar in this cliapel is the work of jose Jviva of Bergamo, Lom- hanli, and was donated l)y Captain Francis Kaggio, of the French Navy, a hrother of Father Aloysius Raggio, S. J., formerly a Stu- dents ' Chaplain. It was donated in thanksgiving for the captain ' s safe return from the wars of TniKiuin, China. In the picture the artist very appropriately features Jesus as a hoy, and in doing so gives Mim a wholesome ingenuousness that cannot hut impress the l eholder. Many a Santa Clara man will carrv the memory of that picture with him on through life, and when other motives fail it will remain with him as a guide and support. Very devotional likewise are the stained-glass windows donated 1)y friends. They give the chapel its sul)dued light and enhance its atmosphere. Practicaly all the furnishings are donations. The statue of the Sacred Heart, for instance, liears a l rass plate on which are inscrihed the words, A mother ' s thanks for the safety of her son during the earthquake of 1906. 7 ie Qhaplains Rev.

Mootz Students ' Chaplain The Religious Survey afifords an excellent means of studying the present Santa Clara man in reference to his spiritual antecedents and in reference to the reactions which he experiences from the spiritual influences which ohtain at Santa Clara today. His inmost convictions in matters religious, the thoughts which occupy his mind, the results which he reaps from devo- tions, what specially appeals to him, are all brought out by the survey. A questionnaire was drawn up, locally colored and to the point, fairly thorough but not too searching, and this was presented to the stu- dents with a request for anonymous replies. The response was gratifying beyond all expectation. The answers were characterized by frankness and by frequent touches of ingenuous piety. While the primary purpose of the survey was to aid in the spiritual direction of the students, the first effect was a direct one obtained by the students themselves in answering the questions proposed. This arose from the fact that the interrogatory was, as a matter of fact, a searching examination of conscience, and a man felt that he had obtained as much benefit from answering the questions as if he hat! prepared for a general confession. The reason is obvious. While the question, If not, whv not, was nowhere asked, it stood out in the mind of the one (|uestioned whenever he had to accuse himself of neglecting an opportunitv for grace of which he should have taken advantage. Moreover, the jniblished restilts of the survey had the effect o£ a lay sermon. Many a man was surprised and nnich edified to learn the senti- ments of his fellows. The welcome given it by the student body, by the faculty and bv all to whose notice it came, makes it siu ' c that the survey will be an annual occurrence at Santa Clara. And as methods are perfected and knowledge of its benefits becomes more general the good accomplished will increase in i)ro])ortion. It was particularly appropriate that the first survey of this kind should have been made during our year of jubilee. The material fruits of seventy-five long vears of toil and self-sacrifice are abundantly evident. It was befitting that the still more precious, hidden spiritual fruits should be given pro])er notice. This notice they received in the Religious Survey. I 79 T)evotion to St, Joseph Sliriiic of Si. Josc h ill llic I ' iiicyard Appeals to St. Joseph in the interest of Santa Clara did not originate with the founding (jf the college on his feast in the year 1851. When the saintly I ' adre Junipero Serra with his little hand of C()m] anions first set out for Upper California, it was St. Joseph who was chosen as their special pro- tector. Later on, hy legislative act of the mother country, all the prospective mis- sions of California were placed under tile s])ecial patronage of St. Joseph. A Mass was ordered said on the nineteenth of each month in his honor, and the litany of the saints was daily recited for the success of the newly founded missions. Santa Clara College was founded on the feast of St. Joseph, March the nine- teenth, a date prohahly chosen through Fr. Xohili ' s desire that the college should hegin its glorious career under his protection, ()n the nineteenth of March, 1868, a statue of the saint was hlessed and erected in the inner vineyard, and the President, Father Varsi, made a stirring address to the students, extolling the virtues of the Foster Father of the Redeemer and exhort- ing all to filial devotion towards him, under whose protection he once more placed the college. The student hody gathers at the shrine annually on the feast of the Patronage of St. Josei)h for appropriate exercises in honor of tlieir patron. A fitting tribute was i)aid the Patron Saint of the College, when on March 19 of this vear of jubilee, and on the actual anniversary day of the foundation of the College, the faculty and students assembled in the Memorial Chapel for the Solemn Celebration of Mass in honor of St. Joseph. b ' ather jose])h M . i iet.S.J., Provincial of the California jjrovince, was celebrant ; I ' ather Zacheus J.

H KKIM)N Treasurer Leonard Casanova President Samuel Dagley J ' ice President Alvin Wolf Secretarv The Holy Name Society The primary object of the Holy Name Society is to honor and reverence the Holy Name of God and of Jesus Christ. This object is accomplished in a two-fold manner. First, it cultivates reverence and worship for the most holy and sacred of all names ; secondly, it opposes and denounces all crimes against the name of God, such as blasphemy, cursing, swearing, profane language and all manner of obscene and indecent speech. That the existence of such a society today is opportune is plainly evident from the lack of honor for the name of God and the lack of respect for the law of God which obtains today. The white-robed sons of the great Saint Dominic were intrusted with the work of founding this society. And on the fourth of November, 1274, the General of the Order made known Pope Gregory ' s wish in an encyclical letter. Eloquent preachers from the honored pulpits of a dozen different European nations urged devotion to the Holy Name of Christ. Special altars and shrines were erected in many places, processions composed of thousands of people, their devotional banners waving in the breezes, walked the streets of cities and along the roads of the countryside. These processions were the forerunners of the Holy Name rallies of our own time and of the national convention held lately in Washington, D. C. A growing tendency toward atheism is manifest in the nation, to which the Holy Name Society is a practical answer. By reason of its straightforward support of the fundamental religious practices, the Holy Name Society is doing the nation a service of inestimable value.

And very appropriately on the feast of the Immaculate Conception the first Mass was celehrated within its walls. One of the tuidergraduate expressions of devotion to the Blessed Virgin is her Sodality. It is strictly an honor society with limited membership and with high scholastic and other requirements for entrance. Canonically erected and affiliated to the Roman Prima I ' rimaria, as it is at Santa Clara, it is a rich source of indulgences to its members. It aims to promote j ersonal hcjliness in its meml)ers and urges them to sjjonsor everv w(irthy cause. Another practice in honor of the ISlessed Vir- gin which is in vigor at Santa Clara is that of the May devotions. The method of procedure in these is perhaps unique, since they are con- ckicted entirely by the students. Each evening during the month of May a sermon is given in the chapel by a meml)er of the student body, usually upon some virtue of the Blessed Virgin. It is considered a great honor and a privilege to give such a talk, and the fervor and sincerity of the sermons bear witness to the student- body ' s devotion to Mary. 8 2 Top Row: King, Scherf, Malley, Temple Second Row: White, Barceloux, Boland, Andre, E.

In fact, the second semester finds George Malley at the head of one of the most emulated institutions on the campus. For by their conduct on and ofif the altar these acolytes have made the prestige of the Sanctuary Society felt in every department of the University. The constant petitions of candidates a.spiring to admission into the organization have made it necessary to restrict the number of its members and force further petitioners to seek the status of mere applicants.

Greene, in the spring of 1871, received his first assignment as a newspaper reporter, and it was to go to his Alma Mater, Santa Clara College, to cover the production of Picarro. which was to be given as the opening piece of the new University Auditorium, the largest and best equipped theater west of the Rockies, which had just been completed under the supervision of Father Varsi. Since Pizarro, down through fifty odd years of service, the Universitv Theater, or if you will, affec- tionately, the Ship, has housed success after suc- cess, and it has l)een the nursery of names which in later years were to be flared forth in the lights of Broadway. But the Ship has 1)een the nurturing ground of something more lasting than names and more tangible than mere successes. It has brought forth the Santa Clara drama. Santa Clara drama is as distinctively that and noth- ing else, as Titian ' s colorings are inimital)ly Titian, and Beethoven ' s rich tonings are unmistakably Beetho- ven. Not only is it produced and enacted by Santa Clarans, l3ut it is even written by Santa Clarans. Not that Collegians have never before written plays, luxt no institution of learning can point with the just pride of Santa Clara to such trul ' great dramas written by her collegiate sons as that magnificient, overpowering drama.

Religious, ves, hut it is precisely that which makes Santa Clara drama what it is. Artistic perfection consists essentially in ideal naturalness unblemished by arti- ficiality, but no theme is so perfect a theme for artistic endeavor as religion, because man when ideally natural is necessarily motivated by religion, and nothing moves man ' s soul so much as religion, be it the rejection of it, alTected indifference to it, or an abiding fullness of it. Only at Santa Clara, where religion takes an orderly precedence over all, could such a noble theme be so properly treated. It could only be conceived in minds trained in the solid groundings of a staunch faith ; it could only be produced, as Santa Clara dramas have been produced, by minds able to see visions and pictures, and al;)le to conceive how the innermost stirrings of faithful hearts ought to be laid bare ; and it could only be enacted by minds that can appreciate with an almost intuitive ajiprecia- tion what faith really means. Among all of the dramatic celeV)rities of Santa Clara none are quite so prominent or c|uite so famous as Clay M. Greene, ' 69, and Martin V. Merle, 06. Their loyalty is not measured l y years, but by unfinished decades, and their works are numbered by the score. So intimately are they associated with dramatics at Santa Clara that they have come to be identified with it, and they are made the norm of comparison by which all others are judged.

Shepherd of that august hocly of the uation ' s fuiest actors, The Lamhs ' Cluh of New York, for seven years, a longer time than anyone else has ever been so honored, Wv. (ireene has never been unmindful of his Alma Mater amid the gianKjr and bril- liance of his fame. For her Golden Jubilee he wrote ' flic I ' ussioii Play of Saiitu Clara, supervising its premier production here in I ' HJl, making Santa Clara the Oberam- mergau of America. J ' ortraying this greatest of all tragedies with a splendor and beauty that made its acclamation statewide, it was harldy to be expected that it could ever l)e produced quite so well again, yet in the spring of 1923 Mr. Merle directed the staging of it with such a polished magnificence that its fame grew to be nation- wide, and ofifers for bookings were received from eastern cities as well as from our own California cities. With a total of twelve productions on the campus and at the Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, the 1923 productiijn of this intense drama- pageant played to well over forty thousand people, breaking all records for collegiate productions and setting a record of an attendance of nine thousand at a single i)er- formance, a rec(jrd that has never been e(|ualled bv any professional production outside of the opera. Then in 1909 Charles D. South wrote his massive spectacle Cdnstaiitiiic, depicting the turbulent life of that mighty emperor with that same touch of genius and talent that graces Mr. South ' s other works. As virile and as dramatic as the life of the Roman emperor which it unfolds, this drama is vivified and made substantial by that same artistic breath of faith that is the essential characteristic of the Santa Clara drama. While still an undergraduate at Santa Clara College, Martin V. Merle had written his drama, The LiijJit Eternal, and had enjoyed the exhilaration of having had it produced on liroadway. New York, under the direction of none other than the late Henrv Miller. The story is of the martvrdcjm of I ' ancratius under the reign of Diocletian. It is written with a remarkable sense of pictures, and develojjes through scenes of the most intense action. Mr. Merle ' s Alissiou I hiy of Santa Clara is in nianv ways the most uniquely Santa Claran of all. Early California and early davs at Santa Clara under the Franciscans are depicted with a warm California beautv that is a lazv beauty when the time is right, and a swiftly moving dramatic beautv at other moments.

Merle, ' 06 l[9ol l)Ut it is not only as a producer of playwrights that Santa Clara ' s i)restige stands supreme. Her dramatic directors have ever been characterized by a sense of pictures — the power to see a scene as it ought to be set — Iw which they have accom- plished effects that held audiences entranced l)y the sheer l)eautv unfolded before them. They have been able to bring every action of each player into harmony so that during an entire play there is always a picture before the au- dience, perfect in balance and in colorings. The Apostles in the garden scene in TJic Passion Play, the lazv patio scene in TJic Mission Play, with the actors not only moving but even sleep- ing, and the scene of Tlic LiyJit PtcDial where Artemias listens to a serenade in the moonlight, are all scenes with a marked lack of action, yet they are perhaps auKjng the most vivid memories retained from these productions simply because of the beauty of color and composition which was theirs. To recall the more i)r()minent names of those who have interpreted the principal parts in the dramatic successes of Santa Clara takes us l ack to a period previous even to the erection of the Ship, when such men as the Honorable Delvin M. Delmas, C. T. Ryland, Stephen M. White and Clay M. Greene himself trod the boards of the first theater of Santa Clara College. Joseph A. Donohoe, Michael Kelly, Peter J. Don- ahue, John Clark, Peter Dunne, James F. Smith (later to be General Smith), John Long, Louis Sage and Fernando Ayon all added to the prestige of Santa Clara in dramatics, some receiving a training that later brought them to the professional stage, while others gained greater heights in their chosen careers because of this training. The great John T. Alalone of Shakespearean fame played his first part here at Santa Clara in San! in IS I. John Ivancovich, the John Ivan of todav, em- barked here upon a career already rentjwned and by no means as yet at the heights of the fullness of its promise. James Bacigalupi, after showing every promise of greatness in the theatrical world, turned his talents and training to serve his purpose in the financial world. and today he is the power of the Pacific Coast.

Written by Santa Clarans. mounted by Santa Clarans, and cast with Santa Clarans, Santa Clara drama has reached its j resent perfection because at Santa Clara the theme of its drama is so natural and so accustomed a thing that its artistry is per- fectly natural and utterly without artificiality. Breathing the same religious spirit that warms and nourishes the preparation that is made at Santa Clara for the future combat with a cold and seltish world, it is but natural that greatest of all the beauties of Santa Clara should l e so gloriously reflected in its drama. In truth, were it not so reflected, and were its motive any other than Ad Mnjorciii Dei Gloriam and love of Alma Mater, the Santa Clara drama would not be Santa Claran. Henry B.

Director of Dramatics The T ramatic J ear ig2S-ig26 Serving as an introduction t(j the student Ijody, and as an indication of the type of work that might be anticipated from this year ' s dramatic efforts, Mr. Daniel E. Sul- livan, LL.M., the director of dramatics at Santa Clara, gave an interpretative reading of the morality, Experience. Manifesting every evidence of perfect polish, Mr. Sul- livan held his audience with little difficulty, and his inflections and voice control were unimpeachable. Several weeks after this reading by Director Sullivan, the Dramatic Art Contest opened the year ' s dramatic work, as has been the custom, there being seven acts put on by as many aspirants with individual supporting casts. Fenton J. McKenna, ' 2 S, assisted by Stephan F. Phelan and Frederick li. Diehl, was awarded first prize for his artistic and well-balanced interpretation of the irascible character of Captain Robert de ] adricourt in the castle scene from Shaw ' s Saint Joan. George L. Malley, ' 26, supported by John J. Flynn, waS awarded the second prize for his characterization of Simon Ligot from Robertson ' s play, David Garrick. Without much dramatic action and demanding great cleverness and a keen sense of the histrionic, this difficult part was well acted. Carl Fusco, assisted by Ian B. Hunter, played the part of Napoleon in Shaw ' s Man of Destiny ; John A. Spann rendered the trial scene from The Mcrcliant of Venice; Thomas L. Keating, assisted l)y Victor L. Diepenbrock, presented Kidder ' s Peaceful J ' alley; Thomas R. Ryan impersonated the emperor in Eugene (J ' Neill ' s Emperor Jones; and Rupert E. Moore and Presley L Lancaster presented the court- room scene from John Galsworthy ' s Justice. 193} L zr The leaver It is l)Ut necessary to recall how dramatic was the conversion of St. Paul to have an idea of the intensely dramatic character of TJic Weaver, Clay M. Greene ' s gift to his Alma Mater in honor of her Golden Jubilee. The Weaver, from whom the play takes its name, is Saul of Tarsus, and the play tells the story of his miraculous con- version to Ghristianity, his l)ai)tism as Paul, and his suhsecpient martyrdom. Opening in the vear following the crucifixion of Christ, the first of the nine epochs of the play introduces Saul, aided and abetted l)y a mob before the palace of the Roman Governor of Tarsus, as one of the fiercest persecutors of the Christians, threatening dire punishment to St. Stephen should he continue to spread the treason of the Nazarene. The .scene closes with the martyrdom of St. Stephen. Throughout this first epoch there is just a suggestion of a lack of wholehearted- ness in his work that hints that Saul, though he is none the less cruel because of it, is not, deej) down in his heart, the cruel persecutor that he would seem to be, and in the second episode, where he is shown on the march with his army int(j the surround- ing countryside to carry on the persecutions there, this suggestion begins to crystal- lize into a more decided indifl erence. . ll ])rognostication about what Saul might have done if left to follow a natural course is put at an end by Divine interference. It is in this second episode that Saul is struck blind by a bcjlt of lightning and hears the voice of God deterring him from his awful work, the portrayal of which makes this scene one of the most dramatic of the play. Ananias, a Christian, in the third epoch acts upon God ' s command, restores Saul ' s sight to him, and persuades him to be instructed in the Faith of Christ under the tutelage of the Apostle Barnal)as, and this episode ends with the im])ressive l)a])tisni of Saul as the Christian Paul. 1 H [ K. 1 _ fW mM I V I w IM Ph pni H £, I IMIk Hkii i Caiphas, the high priest {Fcnton J.

Caiaphas, the high-priest, endeavors to claim Paul as his prisoner, Init Julius, a Roman officer and a hoyhood chum of Paul ' s, enforces a prior claim to the prisoner because he is a Roman citizen. In the presence of Herod and the Roman Governor, Paul, in the fifth epoch, is tried with Caiaphas as his ac- cuser in a trial scene that is fraught with suppressed hatred on the ])art of the Jews, and with frank interest in this new philosophy on the part of the judges. Paul is freed by the vote of both Herod and tlie Roman governor, Ijut acting up(jn his rights as a Roman citizen, Paul demands an appeal to im- perial Rome so that the matter may be settled once and for all beyond any f|uestion.

I ' elagius, a mariner and the loudest grumbler of all. ridi- cules this and is of a mind that even while they are talking, this Paul is probably out among the inhal)itants of the island stirring them on to kill the whole company, but with the tirade hardly finished, he is silenced by the return of Paul leading a number of the inhabitants bearing food for the refugees. The scene ends with the .1 l95l ' D a Ni - The dispute between Barnabas (Vin- cent H. O ' DonncU, ' 25, rigbt) and his recent pupil, Paul { Edivard P. Mtirphv, ' 26, left). Conversion of the refugees; and the appear- ance of a relief shij) roimding the ])oint makes this final pictiu ' e one of surpassing heauty. Several years elapse hetween the sixth and the seventh epochs, and in the seventh epoch Peter and Paul are shown imi)risoned in a cell, their mortal hours numhered and awaiting martyrdom. Julius is with them, still a Roman officer and still a pagan ; the jeers of the Roman l)opulace and the screams of the wild beasts ■ inf iu iated wit h hunger are heard from without. AVhen the guards enter to lead them away to their death, jidius falls upon his knees and begs to be baptized a Christian. The scene closes with the parting of Paul and Julius, who began their lifelong friendship as pagan chums and who part in view of death as Christians. After the climax of the play in the seventh epoch, the eighth epoch is given over to satisfying the demands of justice aroused in the audience. Xero, the prime cause of the cruel persecutions, no longer emperor, rushes into the grounds of what was once a sumptuous village near Rome, and seeing Julius there, begs to be saved from the death that the roars of the pursuing mob presage. Seeing no mercy, but only condign justice in the eyes of his former officer, he draws his sword and falls upon it, bringing to a wretched but no less consonant close his wi etched career. The last epoch is a tableau depicting the enti-ance of St. Peter and St. Paul into their eternal reward, and it casts a glow of peace upon the whole masterpiece that is not only fitting the great lieauty of the work, Init mav well lie taken as allegorical of the peace which will be the Church ' s when she ceases to be the Church Militant and becomes the Church Triumphant. In Edward P. Murphy, the winner of last year ' s Dramatic Art and Oratorical Contests, the character of Paul was cast with a promise of true interpretation that was fulfilled with a perfection that warrants him to be justly termed the creator of the role. Murphy ' s portrayal of the character of Cardinal Richelieu in the Dramatic Art Contest of last year, and his playing of the sinister part of Corvinus in TIic Light Eternal of last May, even as good as they are, are dimmed by the splendid acting that he did as The Weaver. Harsh and cruel, ei with just a touch of insincerity in his harshness and in his cruelty, he made Saul the persecutor live again as f96 1 the worldly personage that he was. As Paul, the Christian, he retained the strength and vigor that is identified with the character, but there was a warmth about Paul that was lacking in Saul. Murphy seemed to feel the sincerity of Paul the Christian just as he sensed the insincerity of Paul the Pagan. Gestures, inflections, expression and all the techni(|ue that is so essential to good acting is .so much a i)art of this fin- ished actor that he plays the part as naturally as if he were living it. Julius, the Roman centurion and the companion of Paul, was capa1)ly enacted b ' Joseph Rank, who, although never before cast in so prominent a part, has always been connected with dramatics while at Santa Clara. This is the only part that runs all through the play, and with the number of years that the play covers, it is no easy task to do the justice that Rank did to this part, which starts out in the blush of youth and terminates in past middle age. His rich voice found ample opportunity for displaying all of its adaptabililv both as a hardv centurion, as the ever true friend, and as the subdued convert. Caiaphas, the high-priest, ever ready to put to death a Christian, was played by Fenton J. McKenna, winner of this year ' s Dramatic Art Contest. McKenna ' s ex- cellent handling of a throaty voice lent much to the interpretation of this haughty man of power, so ticcustomed to speaking with authority and with never a doubt that his word would not be final and obeyed without question, and his gestures were marked by a co-ordination that is not frequently found in an amateur. Enacted as it is hard to imagine anvone else enacting him, Ijarnabas, the Apostle of Christ, was really made to live again by Vincent H. O ' Donnell, whose Jechonias in Tlic Passion Play and whose Luciannus in The Light Eternal are still vividly remembered. His voice, his walk, his presence, all went U) make the success of this pari what it was. George L. Al alley, in the part of St. Peter, found a field for the throbbing quality of his voice that he used so effectively as Damius in The Light Eternal, and here he had an even greater need for it. Aljout to go to his death, and filled with an overpowering love for his Re- deemer, the words of Peter as uttered by M alley had a moving vibrancy that moistened the eyes of his audience with tears of .sympathetic appreciation of the noble char- acter that through Malley ' s acting was made to speak Caiaphas, the Jewish high . .1 priest (Fciitoii J.

C ' ntling down mechanical aids in the way of extensive scenic settings and minutely detailed properties to a greater degree than ever hefore essa}-ed here, the pro- (Uiction depended almost entirely for its snccess on the artistic ahilitics of the actors. Upon them it lay, hy means of true and lifelike impersonation, to so vividh- im])rcss the aiulience that irresistihle i)ictin es were conjured up in their imaginations of the storv that was heing unfolded hefore them. The careful training of the voice given them hy I3irector Sullivan, and the techni(|ue of the players, that could onlv have resulted from a course of stud_ ' under Mr. Sullivan, who has a keen sense not only of the fundamental principles of the histrionic, hut also of the more re- mote and nice details of the art, were manife.sted throughout the whole production. ' J ' o otTer the hest hackground for the full and un- hampered display of the talents (jf his plavers, Mr. Sullivan exhihited his cleverness in .stage craft l)y his judicious and well-tempered use of drapes, scrims, suggestive settings and lighting effects. The polish of the veteran, and that naturalness that is so essential to true art, were always evident. The ability to faithfully interpret character and the spontaneous endeavor to do the utmost, which marked every member of the cast; and the guidance of the comjjetent hand of the director, who was the inspiring spirit behind The Ji ' cdZ ' cr, make this latest trimnph of the .Santa Clara stage not only a mon- ument of the past, but also a presaging of future successes which the new the- ater is destined to house.

The two student body dances held during the fall semester were excellent examples of what affairs of such a nature ought to lie. The first of these was sponsored by the Block S. C.

It had formerK ' lieen the ])ractice to make awards to those who had taken part in a specified number of quarters, halves or innings, as the case might l)e. At the present time, flue to the action of the .Student Congress, candidates for block sweaters are recommended by an athletic committee, consisting of the Coach, the T aculty Moderator and one other chosen ]i - them. The Board takes into consideration the merits of the candidates for blocks as well as the time of partici- pation in the games of the various sports. It was also decided to award block sweaters to athletic managers. Pierre M. Barceloux, football manager for 1925, was the first to receive one of these sweaters. James Nealis was awarded a manager ' s block in baseball. The Associated .Students, through the J-Jlock .S. C. .Society, i)lavefl an imjxirtant ]iart in the production of The Weaver of Tarsus, Clav M. (ireenc ' s Diamond Jubilee Play. Much of the burden (jf the disposal of tickets was upon the organiza- tion, and the financial success of the show bears witness to the fact that the students exerted every efl ort to assure a capacity audience at each performance. The Entertainment Committee, consisting kA William Lange, McCone Girard, Paul Fletcher and . llan Early, arranged for the rallies held before im])ortant foot- ball contests and for the recei)tions tendered coaches and pla -ers in the refectory. The Handball Committee conducted a spring tournament in which much interest was shown. Jack b ' lynn was chairman of the committee. The tournament created more interest than usual, due to the decision of the Student Congress to award cash prizes to the winners. This decision affected tennis winners as well, and the Tennis Committee found little difficulty in securing entries. The Tennis Ccjmmittee was composed of Thomas Temple, Jack Flvnn, and P. II.

When school convened in August, 1925, the meml)ers of the Society numliered seventy-five — an increase of 200 per cent over the original membership of the Society when founded in 1912. At the first business meeting of the school year. President Tosi appointed the Standing Committee ; James Harrison, chairman of the Program Committee ; and John Vasconcellos, chairman of the Publicity Committee. These men were highly influential in making the year a success for the Society. As in the past, the Engineering Society was this year among the foremost student organizations. Besides taking a leading part in social activities, caring for the lighting of the campus during the Jubilee Celebration, and performing their usual odd jobs, such as supervising the construction of the bonfire, the engineers gave the student body an example of true devotion to Santa Clara. The great work of the Society for the year was the devising and financing of a scheme for increasing the student body of the University. The Senior Class, early in the first semester, pro- posed a plan for advertising the school, and George Fletcher and Roy Waterman, both of the class of ' 27 , were appointed by President Tosi to arrange the details of the plan. Mr. Fletcher and Mr. W aterman reported that it would cost approxi- mately three hundred dollars to finance a proposition of printing and sending a cata- logue concerning the Engineering College of the University to every Catholic boy in fourth-year high school on the Coast. The Society proceeded to raise the re([uired three hundred dollars. Under the guidance of Ray Hulsman, chairman of the Entertainment Committee, a whist party and raffle of a one hundred dollar merchandise order was arranged and given by the Society in Seifert Gymnasium on February 16, 1926. The members worked hard to make the party a success; the Society was divided into groups, and each group was allotted a section of San Jose or Santa Clara to canvass. The results of this campaign were gratifying indeed; two hundred and fifty people attended the party, and over four hundred dollars was cleared.

Marius Becchf.tti faculty Advisor Secretary J Jgcil Jraternity The Legal Fraternity of the University of Santa Clara, re-established in the spring semester of 1925, has filled a long-felt want in the Institute of Law. Its purpose is to stimulate interest in legal subjects outside the class room and to foster a greater spirit of fellowship among those studying law. During the short time that the Fraternity has existed it has well accomplished its purpose. Under the auspices of the Fraternity, monthly lectures in legal and kindred sub- jects have been given to the entire meml)ership of the law school, as well as to the members of the organization. Several of the foremost jurists in the state were heard as speakers at these lectures. Among those who gave talks may lie mentioned Hon. John E. Richards, associate justice of the Supreme Court of California; Hon. P. F. Gosbey and Hon. F. B. Brown, judges of the Superior Court of Santa Clara County; Hon. V. A. Sontheimer ; Mr. Harrison, former dean of the Hastings Law School; Mr. Henry Hill, Mr. S. C. Tompkins, and Walter Stray. This scheme of having outside speakers address the members cjf the organization not only ])roved extremely popular Init highly instructive as well. Not to limit itself exclusively to the .scholastic side of college life, the Legal Fraternitv has also embarked on several social ventures. The most successful of these was the Fraternity Dance given at the Hotel Vendome on the evening of Febrviary 6, 1926. The aiTair was attended by more than two hundred couples. Encouraged bv unlooked for success, the Fraternity decided to make the dance an annual one. These, in l)rief, are the activities of the Legal Fraternity during the first year of its existence. That the organization has made itself an integral part of the student life on the campus is quite apparent. It plans for next year a still greater career of usefulness. I ' OSl vt ? .

Ryan Faculty Advisor Everett Erle Sccrctarv Business Administration Association Under the direction of Professor William B. Ryan, as faculty moderator, the Business Administration Association was organized last September by the students of the College of Commerce and Finance. The desire for a closer union among the men of this department and a knowledge of the many advantages to be derived from such a union led to the formation of the Association. The year ' s program, as planned at the beginning of the fall semester, called for special lectures by prominent business men, a visit to large commercial houses, and a dance. This program has l een carried out completely and successfully. The first lecture was given October 28 by Mr. Mudie McRitchie, assistant cashier of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. On February 9, E. J. Shaw, of the field force of the Prune and Apricot Grow- ers Association of San Jose, spoke on Co-Operative Marketing. Mr. Shaw laid stress on the fact that marketing in the past had not received the attention that it deserved, luit that todav people are beginning to realize more and more that it is essential to business, and are commencing to study its princij les. E. G. McCann, manager of personnel of the Pacific Gas and Electric Company of San Francisco, entertained the members of the society on the evening o-f March 11 with a thorough outline of the work carried on by his department. During the course of the year visits were made to the Federal Reserve Bank in San Francisco and to the Pittsburg Steel Mills. The students returned from these visits with considerable knowledge of the business methods of the firms. The dance at the Hotel Vendome on the evening of April 10 brought to a close a most successful year of activity. James A. Nealis, Albert J. Miller, Gerald E. Har- rington, Wallace G. Brandt, John H. Degnan and C. Everett Erie made up the committee in charge of this first social function of the society. Through the courtesy of the professors of the College of Commerce and Finance, a room has been set aside in Kenna Hall, where a lilM ' ary containing books of interest to commercial students has been established.

During the past year the Program Committee was fortunate in securing prom- inent men to address the Club. Father Maher congratulated the members of the organization upon its formation, and wished them every success. He spoke on the medical profession, the primary duties of a physician, and the necessity for strong- character in solving the many problems met with in medical practice. Later in the year, Dr. Alexander Keenan of San Francisco, a prominent alumnus, delivered a most entertaining and enlightening lecture to the Club. The post-Lenten dance of the Mendel Club was a splendid success. It was held in the lounging room of the Seifert Gymnasium. Full opportunity has been afTorded every member of the organization to take part in its activities during its first year. The society does not boast many members at this early date, and consequently committee work and other duties have been assigned to all. That this work has been so successfully carried out is a credit to the organization as a whole. c f 5l The riifi ii ill tlic CdliJ I ' liiii lliilcl iiild zvliiili tin SriHitr iiioi ' cci ill 1S71 The Literary Congress c a ck wa rd Cj a ?ice The origin of the Literary Con- gress, as of Oxford and Cambridge, is venerably obscure. The I ' hilalethic Senate — at first the I ' hilalethic Lit- erary Society — seems to be the older House of the Congress. The earliest minutes record a session of the Sen- ate on (Jctober 18, 1856, and they refer to an earlier session. Father Michael L. Accolti, S. J., was the first president; and John AL Bur- nett, A. M. 59, was chairman of the first public debate, on the question : Washington was a Greater Bene- factor to Mankind than Napoleon. The Constitution of the Senate provided for Order and Decorum by the fol- lowing rules : No member shall be allowed to read his speech or use notes, but must trust to previous reflec- tions and to his memory, and which practice would tend to form a habit which he would carry to the bar or to the Legislature. The use of tobacco is forbidden in the hall. No one shall assume a lulling position, nor put his feet on the tables or on the sofas. The minutes of 1868 record that Clay M. Greene and John M. Waddell faithfully answered the roll call, but Robert E. Kenna had joined the order of Jesuits in Santa Clara. In 1871 the Senate moved to a new hall on the second floor of the California Hotel, which it occupied till the hotel collapsed in 1906. The objection to the former hall, the minutes remark, is that while the Philalethic Societ ' occupy it on Wednesday nights, the Philhistoric Society occupy it on Tuesday nights, and the Tuesday nights are rough on the furniture. Desks and chairs sufifer injury, sashes are shattered. . . . The arrangement is not altogether satisfactory. In 1876 Father Edmund J. Young, S. J., healed such unpleasant internecine strife bv uniting the two Houses in the Literary Congress. Father Young had once been a page boy in the United States Senate, and hence it is, possibly, that he modeled his society after the plan of that body. That he was imitated by Vale and Harvard is attested in the Yale Alitmui Ji ' cckly for February 6, 1901 : At a regular meeting of the Yale Union ... it was voted to organize the Union into a -Senate, modelled after the Senate of the United States. . . . Harvard has recently adopted this plan, and it lias been in use thirty years in a Jesuit College in Santa Clara, Calif. The Literary Congress has, in 1926, been operating on this plan for fifty years. |ii61 Top Row: Father Dunne (Moderator), Campodonico, Malley, Karam, Zieman, Murphy, Lange Second Row: Aiello, Lanigan, McDonnell, Sheehan, Temple T hilalethic Senate The victory of speakers of the Philalethic Senate over debaters from Manjuette Universitv of Wisconsin was the outstandins: event in the society ' s year. The annual Ryland Del)ate drew much favoralile comment and occasioned a large gathering of interested listeners. The Marquette Debate was held on the evening of March 9 in Sodality Hall. John M. Burnett and Edward P. Murphy, representatives of the Senate, upheld the affirmative side of the question, Resolved, that this house pities its grandchildren. Herl)ert Steffes and Arlo McKinnon spoke for Marquette. The decision of the judges in favor of the Senate was unanimous. The debate drew attention to social evils prevalent today : namely, the growing frequency of divorce, the breaking down of the home, the increasing popularity of atheistic theories, and the decreasing religious faith of the masses. Previous to the Marquette and Ryland Debates, the c|uesti(Mis were discussed at regular meetings of the Senate, in order that some (jf the burden of research might be taken from the shoulders of the Senators chosen to represent the or- ganization in public. The members voted to aliolish the tryouts usually held for public de- bates, and placed the power of choos- ing Senate representatives for these contests entirely in the hands of the moderator, Rev. Peter M. Dunne, ■ J- McKiNNON, Stei-tes, Burnett, Murphy )Vl. f 7l Senate Team (top row) : Murphy, Ford, McDonnell House Team (second row) ; McDoucall, Flynn, McCarthy Ryland Debate The twenty-third animal Ryland Debate between the I ' hilalethic Senate and the House of Philhistorians was held pril 1 , 1926, in Soclalitv Hall. The question read : Resolved, That the i)resent crime wave is attributable chiefly to the failure of the State to properly punish criminals. Either house of the Literary Congress proposes the cjuestion in alternate years. The House of Philhistorians this year proposed the cjuestion, and the Philalethic Senate chose the affirmative side. The Senate team, appointed (under the new Senate rule) by the Moderator, Rev. Peter M. Dunne, S. J., consisted of William A. Ford, William C. G. McDonnell and Edward P. Mur])hy. All three have taken part in previous Ryland Debates. The House team consisted of Archibald D. McDougall, Patrick H. McCarthy and John J. Flynn. The House argued (against the question) that the crime wave is attributable ultimately, not to the State, but to the popular majority, who have created a strong public opinion against rigorous punishment. The Senate, however, succeeded in limiting the question to the sense that the crime wave is attributable to the State pvoximatcly. The Senate was awarded the debate. The prize winners were : Patrick H. Mc- Carthy, first ; William A. Ford, second, and Archibald D. McDougall, third. |ii8 Top Row: CuxNixGHAM, Barceloux, McCarthy, IVIartixelh Second Row: Reeg, Spann, Axure, Flynx, Dagley.

In recent years all members of the Law Department had been required to become members either of the Philalethic Senate or of the House of Lhilhistorians. Record of attendance at the meeting of these bodies was then kept in the same manner as that of the classes. The result of abolishing compulsory membership has 1)een an increased interest in the society and a higher standard in the (|uality of debates. The vcar has been most successful for the Ibmse. Twent --four ai)plications for membcrshi]) were read and vcjted upon at the tirsl meeting of the fall semester. At that time Leverend C. F. Deeney, S. J., the nKHlrr.-itor, outlined the plans for the year and a])])(iinted speakers for the debates. At the o])ening of the second semester it was decided that visitors should l)c admitted to regular meetings. This action followed numerous recjuests. The most interesting among the regular debates of the year were those on the Mitchell case, the World Court, Child I abor, the Santa Clara Town Charter, and Prohibition. d(ci f i ' 9l Top Row: CoRsiGLiA, Babbitt, Campisi, Wald, Meynard, Woodley Second Row; Father Coghlan (Moderator), Sunseri, Renwick, E.

Founded in 1922, and named in memory of the late Senator from Cali- fornia, an alumnus of Santa Clara, the Society has increased greatly in membership. High scholarship standards are upheld by the organization, and any student failing to meet the required grades is promptly suspended. This year the S tephen M. White, under the capal)le direction of Reverend A. V. Coghlan, S. J., has restricted its activity to the regular weekly debate. For various reasons it was deemed inadvisable to schedule debates with other universities, as has been the custom in past years. Meetings were held every Thursday evening in the lounging room of Seifert Gymnasium. At these meetings debates on timely and interesting subjects took place. In addition to the debates, recitations were given. Discussions on the questions of the World Court, Prohibition, Child Labor, and the Three-fourths Jury proved the most satisfactory debates of the year. The thorough preparation and excellent delivery of the speakers were sources of encour- agement to the moderators. Visitors attended meetings. |[l20l THE REDWOOD ra fll,nl 1 ' ■ 9-!!T55 ' SW-4 SANTA CLARA Steiss James A. King, S. J. Karam Publications The two student pul)licati(jns of the University, the bi-weekly Santa Clara and the annual Rcdzvood, are issued under the supervision of a faculty adviser for pub- lications, Mr. James A. King, S. J. The Rcdzvood, at the beginning of the fall term of 1925, moved its office from the Seifert Gymnasium to No. 1 Poverty Row, the room formerly occupied Iw the Dean of Studies. Here the 1926 edition was prepared. The 1926 Redzvood appears during the Diamond Jubilee of Santa Clara Univer- sity. Consequently the editors have designed the edition, not only to record the present year, but also to cast back during a few pages of each chapter to various departments in the University ' s past. This design, together with the necessary expansion of the organizations chapter, added to the expense of the book ; so that the editors were obliged to adopt an assessment system, under which graduates and organizations were called on to con- tribute toward the cost of their pages. The sales difficulties of TJic Santa Clara were solved when the subscription price became in August, 1925, a regular University fee levied on all students. Since March, 1926, copies of The Santa Clara are regularly sent to all Alumni. The mailing list at present contains more than 1,600 names. c7 f I2ll Editor Albert J. Steiss Mainujcr Ixayniond j.

Associated Students ' Press Bureau 111 the years just ])rece(liii.i; 1 ' ' 24, the University suffered from I)()th deficient and inaccurate puljhcity. At tlie opening of the lf 24 foothall season, the evil had already hecome so evident as to point to its own remedies : Puhlicity should be organized, and cami)us puhlicity should come from within the campus itself. Thus the forma- tion of the Associated Students ' Press Bureau was decided upon. As the sphere of the Press Bureau is mainly outside the University, it attracts only casual attention there. It has, however, during its two years ' life, been among the most active student organizations ; and the present Bureau, having a year ' s expe- rience behind it, has been perfectly efficient. The greater part of Santa Clara sport news appearing in the northern California papers during the 1925-26 seasons has come through the Bureau. The Bureau also co-operated with the Diamond Jul)iiee publicity committee in advertising Greene ' s llic Weaver, whose premiere at Santa Clara opened the Jubilee celebration. W. C. G. McDonnell has been director of the Bureau during both fall and spring- semesters. [[124 Top Row: Aranda, Father Casey (Director), Loughery Second Row: Spann.

Although it is small in quantity, a nucleus has nevertheless been formed which in time should develop into a musical organization of which the University can well be proud. Too much credit cannot l)e given to Father Casey, moderator of the organization, for his untiring efforts in conducting the practices and recitals. George L.

ATHLETICS Athletics Since igoj VICTOR J. MARTIN History is not always the most pleasant of reading. Too often the victors are those we wished to see defeated, and our own champions are bowed down in the ignominy of defeat. But the history of athletics at Santa Clara is the exception. To follow the chronicles of yesteryears ' games is enjoyable beyond conception. The wonderful spirit that invigorates the writeups, the splendors of victory and the lessons of defeat all provide material for. real entertainment. Let us take a glimpse back some twenty odd years. In 1903, the opening of our historical resume, a famous team held forth on the diamond. The captain was Tom Feeney, a notable athlete according to the enthu- siastic chroniclers, and the personnel of this team included the celebrated Hal Chase, Bobby Keefe and Fran Farry. They beat Stanford four times, losing once, over- whelmed St. Vincent ' s in three contests and crushed the Mayer Brothers in three games. Wm. V. Regan was captain of the ' 03 football eleven — yes, eleven, for the original catch-as-catch-can American was in vogue. This gentleman was injured, however, and Tom Feeney took the position. Almost the entire school must have donned the moleskins, because there were numerous teams, and substitutes were in constant demand. In 1904 John Ivancovich captained the eleven, and victories were taken from the Mission High, Stanford Frosh and Fort Miley. The feature game with the Freshmen of Berkeley was a tie, 0-0. In 1906 football was banned at Santa Clara, due to the death of a player in a San Jose-Santa Clara High School game. August Aguirre was the captain of this last team of American football. In 1905 Thomas Feeney was captain of the diamond. His team trounced Stanford four times, dropping one game, and won and lost once to Berkeley. The following year, when Harry Wolters was captain, Stanford was beaten thrice, Berkeley once, San Jose, Mayer Bros., and Gantner and Mattern once. St. Marys took one game and Santa Clara two. Not a bad season. In 1907, with Cleon Kilburn leading the team, four victories were taken from Stan- ford, two others were lost, one tied, and one was annexed from the proud Golden Bear, with one tie to his credit. The next sea- son was a repetition of these successes, and the following summer the team went to the Ha waiian Islands, The 1903 team beat Stanford four times Charlie Graham is coach f i -9l where it seized the laurels in ten contests. In ] ' KJ7 Rugby was in- troduced into Santa Clara, little being done for sev- eral years. A feat (jf en- durance stands out, how- ever, when iveanis in a game against San Jose ran 109 yards (1908). Mervyn Shafer cap- tained the l)aseball team of U 09, which won the C ' ( )ast c h a ni p i o n s h i p, trouncing Stanford, St. Ignatius and St. Mary ' s, The IMH football Icain, ivifh John Ivancovich. Captain but losing by a slim score to tlie Chicago White Sox. Terry McGovern was cai)tain in 1910, and his team beat Stanford five times, losing once ; California twice ; St. Ignatius, St. Mary ' s and the Olympic Club twice, and Sacramento Coast Leaguers once. Rugy was progressing during this time, and in 1909, with James J. Jarret leading, the boys improved rapidly. In 1910 Jarret was captain, and Nevada, Stanford Frosh, Pacific and St. Mary ' s were given severe beatings. In 1911 Nevada and Pacific were trotmced, and the traditional enemy, St. Mary ' s, won the Big Game. Baseball teams all the while were continuing to pile up their victories. Captain Tramutolo in 1911 led his men to victory (jver Stanford, Pacific and California, but lost to St. Mary ' s. In 1912 the boys again snatched laurels, this time from Stanford tlirice, (Jlympics twice and California once. Bad times set in, however, and they lost to the Coast League teams, Los Angeles, Oakland and Vernon, and finally to the Red and Blue. In 1913 Rugby had a poor year. We lost to Nevada and P.erkeley, and Stanford and Southern California called oiT their game s. The All Black Champions of New Zealand defeated the boys in two games — a part of the great celeljra- tion of Portola in San Francisco. Three men, however, were named on the All American Team — Wright, Ramage and Quill. The following year a fourth man was added, Mon- son, and this ((uartet aided the All American victorv over the All Pirit- ish team. Baseball in 1 ' ' 15 was still contin- uing its march of victorv.

In 1910 the team again sailed to Hawaii, winning two games and losing- two. San l ' rancisc(j and Stanford were defeated twice, and the Chicago Cubs were soundly trounced once. In 1916, when L. T. Milburn was captain of the Rugby team and Coach Austin was doing the directing, the Olympic Club was beaten four times, St. Ignatius once, and Stanf(.)rd once in the big game. In 1917 the Kugby team repeatedly piled up the laurels for their Alma Mater. Although the sport itself was rather on the wane, being superseded by the new American type, the Santa Clara team br(jught fame to the Mission school. Charlie Austin was a name heard on every side as soon as the swirling leaves told the coming of the pigskin. In this year Diaz was captain, and he led his men to two victories over both the Palo Alto Athletic Club and the Olympic Club. Stanford managed to nose the Red and White from their victory. The following autumn marks the glorious death of Rugby. Two games were arranged with Stanford, a preliminary and the great final — the finale of the sport in America. The Cardinal was defeated 8 to 5 in the first afifray and girded itself for the second, determined to win. The final was taken by the sons of Santa Clara, however, by the score of 14 to 3, and this glorious victory makes a fitting close to the history of Rugljy at Santa Clara. That year baseball was just as successful. Stanford was tied once and beaten four times, the two defeats being to California and the Sacramento Coast League team. In 1919 American had its premiere at Santa Clara, and with all its newness it was, for the former Rugby stars, like learning an unknown tongue. From then until 1925 the years spent have represented not a graven tablet of victories, but a long- season of work building the foundation of the team, which, it is hoped, will presently, in brilliancy and dash, rival the Rugby teams of old.

His manly character has merited for him the highest respect of those whom he has set about to train ; his thorough knowledge of football tactics, learned from a master of the game, has earned for him the confidence of his charges ; and his ability to inspire, with a fearless determination similar to his own, those who would have the honor of playing on his team, has produced that spirit among the football men of Santa Clara which caused them, during the past season, seriously to threaten the most powerful Coast teams. Roy Baker, high school friend of W ' alsh and a Santa Clara star of 1920, has worked wonders as backfleld coach. To him is due much credit for a number of the trickiest backs Santa Clara has seen in vears. Baker Walsh Top Ivuvv : Walsh ( Coach ), S.miih, Carh, Muxtgomkkv. Morlv, Hllxan. Schl.nhne. ' al:. e.

(J j ' j Qame In a game replete with l)reaks and filled with more thrills than any game played this year, Slip Madigan ' s fighting Saints downed the green-shirted Broncs of Santa Clara in their annual Little Big Game by a score of 19 to 7. The breaks came so often that the outcome of the game was uncertain till late in the fourth period ; spectacular plays were so numerous that the fans were on their feet a great part of the time. The stands, though well crowded, lacked by two or three thousand that capacity audience which the nature of the contest would seem to merit. The shortage may be attributable to the fact that the Big Games are arranged for Thanksgiving Day. The rival rooting sections, each trying to outdo the other in the novelty of their stunts, lent color to the annual fracas. Some of the stunts between halves were especially effective and drew bursts of applause from the spectators. The Bronco rooting section deserves great credit for the splendid spirit they showed chering their team on in the face of defeat. His Grace Archbishop Hanna, Brother Leo of St. Mary ' s, and Father Maher of Santa Clara occupied a special box on the field appropriately decorated in red, white and blue. Just before the game, both teams lined up before the box as the rival captains, Connie Storm and Ducky Grant, saluted the Archbishop. Amid wild cheering of the stands the two rivals took their positions and the game was under way. In the first half Santa Clara had a monopoly of the breaks, and led the Saints, 7 to 6. Connie Storm, the Bronc ' s peppery captain, covered himself with glory Jfe. InH Stor.m Grant Archbishop Haxxa before the . anie was three minutes old l)y scooping- up Keel Strader ' s fumble and racing fifty-two yards to a score. He received valuable interference from his team- mates in making- the run. Bill Gallagher converted. The rest of the quarter was featured by spectacular playing of Red Chisholm and Duke Valine, who smeared the Saints ' plays time and again. Dick Hassler and Casanova made yards with their spectacular darts of? tackle and around end. On the other hand, the Saints highly touted backs were being stopped in their tracks and held to short gains bv the furious Broncs. As the second quarter opened, Rooney passed over the line, and Santa Clara took the l)all on its twenty- yard line. A minute later Casanova ' s kick was blocked, but AlcCormick recovered on his five-yard line. The Broncs tried a dangerous pass, Casanova to Storm, which worked for twenty-five yards. Another spec- tacular pass and a couple of runs put the ball deep in St. Mary ' s territory. St. Mary ' s took the ball on downs, and then Rooney uncovered the most spectacu- lar play of the game bv racing through the ] )ronc team eightv-nine vards to a touchdown. After the third quarter was well under way and the Ijroncs seemingly had the edge in advancing the ball, .St. Mary ' s fell heir to scjmething when McCormick fumbled and St. Mary ' s recovered on the Broncs ' fifteen-yard line. )n the ne.xt play Rooney and Underbill worked the aerial route for a score. Rooney brought the spectators to their feet on two runs — one for twenty-five yards and the other for ten — that put the ball on the Santa Clara twenty-yard line. Just then Dick Hassler bol)l)ed up, took a Saint pass out of the hands of its receiver and scampered sixty yards before being downed. Casanova passed to Dagley, who had to upset a St. Mary ' s man before he could receive it, for thirteen yards. Dick Hassler contributed two ofif- tackle plunges that put the ball on the Saints ' five-yard line. Then the famous Dagley to Hassler ])ass put the ball on the three-yard line. Ken McCor- mick, who had lieen playing a wonderful line-plunging game, went over on the next play for a score, but was called back on The Line Holds in a Bad .Moment a penalty, and the ball placed ru • • N 1 - ■ Jli.

Hassler on the next play failed hy inches of making a score. With that play the Broncs ' chances of defeating the Saints went glimmering for another year. Thereafter Rooney, Strader and Underhill carried the hall down the field and Underhill scored a touchdown on a thirty-three-yard run off tackle, and the Saints took a commanding- lead. Santa Clara tried desperately to score in the last quarter hy passing, hut their drive was stopped when Farrel intercepted McKee ' s pass on his own thirty-yard line, of heing classed in the same category as the Little Big the most spectacular, the most thrilling and the The game proved worth Games of other vears hv hein hardest fought seen here this season.

No great surprise was manifest when the Bruins won hands down with a 28 to score. Granucci and Chisholm, Santa Clara ' s husky line men, played a stellar game, and their s])arkling defensive work proved the high lights for Santa Clara.

True they came home with the long end of the 6 to score, but their showing was somewhat of a disappointment. A slow, soft field accounted for the poor showing to some extent, and several fumbles marred the Broncs ' performance. Bud Cummings, the Mission ' s diminutive half, stepped into the limelight with his spectacular runs and sterling defensive work.

A pass that failed on the three-yard line as the gun ended the game saved the Club men from a bitter defeat. Sam Dagley and Dick Hassler thrilled the fans time and again with their spec- tacular passes that put the Broncs within striking distance of victory. The Broncs played a versatile game, and lost a game that should have been theirs. It was a bitter defeat after such a glorious showing.

Playing under wraps and waiting for the hreaks, the Broncs hrought a 20 to 7 victory out of the sagebrush. This victory for the Bronco broke the existing equality between the two teams, evidenced by the three succeeding ties. Aside from the untold nun iber of fumbles on both sides, the game was exciting and easy to watch. The lironcs clearly outplayed the Wolves in every department. Barsi, a Freshman fullback, proved the sensation of the day. He sh( wed untold power on offense and played a good defensive game. Bundy, after picking up a Nevada fumble, ran 70 yards for one of the scores behind perfect interference.

The pass and run were good for nearly 40 yards, and came out of a sky, clear, except for a few Trojans that cluttered the landscape. Bud McKee rang the bell when he sent a lung dropkick whistling between the goal posts. It was a 40-yard effort, and marked him as a dangerous man. On the whole, the team looked better than ever before, and things were picking up. St. Mary ' s did not appear to have much on us by this time. Gallagher LETTER MEN McCoRMICK Hassler E144I cA.v I, (9Vfa Santa Clara Displays Unavailing Actiz ' ity T aciHc Game The one dark spot in this chronicle is the bitter 13 to 7 defeat handed to the Broncs by the Pacific Tigers. Figured to win by at least three touchdowns, the Broncs succumbed to an early lead that they could not overcome. The Broncs made almost as much yardage on the Stockton field as they did traveling from San Jose, but they could not squeeze over a win. Fumbles were altogether too plenteous, and bobbed up at the most inopportune times. The team did not look as good as they had all season. The boys seemed to be demoralized by the Tigers ' initial spurt, and spent three cfuarters of the game trying to find themselves. The footliall ho])es of the Broncs took a bad slump. J:inhaiTassiiiij Inter jciciicc M f iH5l Tell cGeaders With the unanimous ap- proval of the Student Body, Bill Lange was elected, in 1925, head yell leader for the third consecutive time. Max Girard, assistant yell leader in 1924-1925, was also re-elected. Lange and Girard had al- ready demonstrated their ahil- ity to organize the rooting sec- tion and to originate stunts ; and the onlv achievement left for them, apparently, was to repeat their success of last vear. They achieved more than a mere repetition, however, and have made campus enthusiasm this year a more important factor in the success of teams than it has ever heen before. The St. Mary ' s game rooting section they handled with great spirit and with an expert precision. They managed, besides, the two large rallies of the football season: the Cali- fornia game rally, held in the old University Theater, and the Bonfire Rally, held liefore the St. Mary ' s game on Mission Field. Four thousand attended the latter. For their success throughout the year, proper credit can be given to Lange and Girard only when it is understood how much of such success is always due, not only to ability, but to Ion ' and hard W(_)rk. GiRARn Yell Leader Lange Head Yell Leader T, rainer Vincent Campisi, our popular young member from movie- land, handled the first-aicl Ijiit for the Broncos in approved sur- gical style. The members of the scjuad will attest to his pro- ficiency in things chiropractic. The cjuiet efficiency with which he discharged his duties has earned him a place of distinction on the Bronco roster. Campisi Trainer 146 BASKETBALL The (Reason M ALLEY (Captain) Center With little left in the way of veteran material, and only a few experienced prep stars with whom to start the Santa Clara Bronco Imskethall play, Coach Russell Wilson, former Whittier College, Stanford, and St. Mary ' s coach, commenced his first year as basketball mentor at Santa Clara University. Coach Wilson was at Whittier for some six years or more, and during that time turned out some very fast basketball quintets, which were four times awarded a far southern championship, and at one time came north to San Francisco to play in the A. A. U. tourney. Wilson was at Stanford prior to the time when Bob Evans took over the coaching reins at the Cardinal school. Then, leaving Stanford, his next al)ode was St. Mary ' s College, where he coached football and l)asketl)all. George Malley succeeded Johnny Vukota as cap- tain of the Santa Clpra varsity team this year. Vukota, who held the honor for two years, completed his quota of collegiate basketball in 1924, and hence was not eligible for play this year. Les Keating, Jim McAulifife, Tony Valine and Ray Hulsman were the only members of the 1924 squad left t(j help out the basketball situation in 1926. Fortunately for Coach Wilson and the team, Stockton High School contributed to Santa Clara a young gentle- man, Ceorge Barsi by name, who made himself well kncjwn in due time, becoming the shining star of the season. Medford (()regon) High Scho(jl sent Dennis Heenan, all-state forward in 1924, but Heenan left Santa Clara after the first semester, just when the collegiate season was about to open, the varsity inci- dentally losing a valuable forward. Jim Draper, guard ; Rupe Moore, center ; Eddie Eoughery, guard ; Baliros, forward ; Red Chisholm, Ken McCormick, Harold Maroney, Irvin J ' ahl, and iM-nest Eocatelli were other jjlayers who started the basketball proceedings for the year at Santa Clara. At length, however, the playing squad drtjpped down to Captain George Malley, center ; George ] )arsi, standing guard; Eddie Eougherv, run- ning guard; Valine and Draper, forwards; with Rupe Moore, center ; Baliros, forward, and l oland, guard, on the bench.

Mai.ley ((, ' aptain) After disposing of the customary inter-class series, which was won h - the Juniors, the Bronco squad set out to prepare itself for the heavier competition, which started ofT against the San Jose Y. M. C. A. Golds, runners-up in the P. A. A. meets this year. The l roncos won from the Golds, in a series with the San Jose High School alumni quintet the Broncos split even, winning and losing once. The I. K. O. Z. quintet of Redwood City, the Stockton .Ml Stars, and the Livermore Cowhoys were other cluh teams that appeared on the ] ronco schedule along with the regular college games. On January 13, the collegiate season opened against Stanford at Stanford, the Broncos losing by a big score. St. Ignatius, California, the Davis Aggies, College of the Pacific, and finallv St. .Mary ' s were the other college f|uintets met by the Santa Clara varsity diu ' ing the season. The results of these contests were very unhappy, as the Santa Clarans were only able to win two games, both of which were victories over the California Aggies, in a series played at Santa Clara. In all, Santa Clara played fifteen games, winning five, only two of which were college games. In a retrospect of the season, the j)la ing of (jeorge Barsi stands among the high- lights. As standing guard he was a formidable .stone wall of defense, and a long- range cannon on the ofTense. After watching Barsi play game after game, in which he exhibited a marked coolness and constant presence of mind, it may be said that the former Stocktfjii High School star was one of the most finished ba.sketball players on the courts in 1 26. Eddie Loughery at rimning guard and Rupe Moore, substitute center, showed remarkable ability late in the season, and it is very prob- able that these two boys will make history for the varsity on the courts next year.

This was the first game played after the Christmas recess, and the Broncos made a good opening of the New Year with a win. Scoring honors were well distributed in this game, McAulifife, Malley, Draper and Barsi annexing a good share. Stockton All Stars at Santa Clara, February 4 Stars 16, Broncos 15 As the score indicates, the Broncos lost in a hard battle, in a game played with a group of former Stockton High School basketeers, Malley and Baliros being the chief gunners for the varsity, while Calcateria and George were the stars for the winners. .,i ' . l 50l l.iVKKMoKic Cownovs AT Santa Ci.ara, February ' ) Co7vboys 35, Broncos 26 Santa Clara siiccumhed l)ef()re the work of the fast I ivermore Cowhoys, com- posed of the well-known McGlinchv Ijrothers, and augmented by the presence of Johnny Vukota, former varsity captain, Sherman, Williams and Grana.

College of Pacific at Stockton, February 20 Pacific 21, Broncos 18 Old rivals l)attled again, but the Pacific team won the tilt. The game played at Stockton was declared to be the fastest contest of the season and was watched by many Stockton fans. Eddie Loughery distinguished himself as a eager, getting six of the Broncos ' eighteen markers, the others being well distributed among members of the squad. Royse at forward and Easterbrook at center shone brightly for the Bengals. The St. Mary ' s Series First Game at Santa Clara, February 24 Saints 21, Broncos 13 The first game of the Saints-Broncos ' yearly series on the courts was played at Santa Clara, February 24, and was won by the Saints after a very close afifair by the score of 21 to 13. Santa Clara ' s warriors were lead- ing at the end of the first half by the score of 7 to 6. In the second period. Bill, who was substituting at center for Underbill of the Saints, cut loose with an accurate attack on the Bronco basket and in the twink- ling of an eye wrested victory from the hands of the Broncos in spite of the stellar guarding efTorts of the home squad. Lawless and Tazer at forward also shared in the winning honors for the Saints. Farrel and Lien of Madigan ' s crew played a towering game at guard in the last half, holding the Broncos to only six points, which were distributed between Barsi, Moore and Valine. (Continued on page 212) IDrAFER Forward Q.I f I52I BASEBALL The ICJ26 (Reason Joseph A. Bonacina Though fond dreams, which had been nursed along by every member of the veteran nine for months prior to the opening of the baseball season at Santa Clara late in the winter, were dashed to the ground when the season progressed. Bronco abil- ity was found to be several rungs higher on the ladder than it was in seasons previous. Weather conditions forced the prospective candidates into idleness for a number of weeks after Coach Agnew had called official training. Perhaps that period of idleness, when, had Agnew ( Coach), Nealis (Manager), Marques (Captain) „qq j gather prevailed, the Broncos could have been taking their daily cut at the ball, had more to do with crashing those fond dreams than anything else which developed later in the season. Coach Sam Agnew, the smiling Ijut ever fighting gentleman of the diamond, called practice in the middle of January, and was answered by a galaxy of veteran players and new stars who were anxious to get going in the work of giving the fans at the University of Santa Clara one of the l)est seasons on the diamond in many years. Space does not permit the giving of those details that actually transpired when the season once began to r(jll along. It suffices to sav that the hopes of some twenty- five regular workers on the scpiad were never realized. Though the team played well, even excellently, (jn some very important occasions, it did not attain to that success for which everyone hoped. Aside from winning a number of club and practice encounters, the Broncos did not do much more. Stanford let Santa Clara down with a couple of distasteful defeats, and California added to the grief with three l)eatings given to the Broncos. The first game with the Bears was trulv a spectacular exhibition on the part of young Charlie Draper, who toiled and sweated on the mound in a hearty attempt to defeat Carl Zamloch ' s Bruins. An error and a squeeze play in the ninth inning won for the Bears by the score of 3 to 2. The Broncos won two college engagements, one with St. Ignatius College, and the other with St. Mary ' s College. Campisi, elongated Los Angeles youth, twirled the Broncos to victory on both occasions. The St. Mary ' s-Bronco series was tied up, the Broncos winning one game and losing the other. It was not played ofT due to lack of time, and no one is prepared to f 54| say which team would have finally taken the honcjrs. The Saints were playing steady baselmll all season, drubbing the Golden Bears three times in a row. If one were to draw a graph of the Broncos ' season he would find the lines rising to the top in one game and sinking to the bottom in the next. The pitching stafT was weak at times, strong at others. The greatest difficulty en- countered by Agnew was this : When the pitchers played like a group of Johnsons, the other departments of the team fell l:)elow the line of mediocrity ; and when the fielding department went full blast, the pitchers couldn ' t do a thing with their deliv- ery. That is really the story of the ups and downs in Bronco baseball for 1926. Tony Campisi and Charlie Draper were the twirlers who showed the most con- sistent form throughout the season. Campisi at times appeared panicky early in a game, but twirled in masterful style as it went on. Draper would either go strong from start to finish, or not go at all. It was not often that he slump ed, however, and he may be credited with having been the outstanding find of the season, and one who will bring the Broncos through next year without much trouble. Gottwals, upon whom many had pinned their hopes for a great Bronco baseball year, did not finish in good trim. The Marysville lad had any number of bad breaks, jjut his chief weak- ness seemed to be his failure to feed the batters the right stufif at the right time. Martinelli, Falk, Morey, Randazzo and Scherf were the big men of the 1926 team. Martinelli Ijrought from Sacramento High School the reputation of being a crafty man Ijehind the plate but a doul:)tful batter. On the latter score, Martinelli fooled the crowd, however, for he slammed out Imse hits, douljles, triples, and homers con- sistently. When a bingle was wanted, Martinelli managed to get it.

Morey, in the outfield, was J andazzo s onl ' rival, and, in truth, there were times when Morey ' s work surpassed the dy- namic Randazzo. Both Randazzo and johnny Morey lent speed to the outfield, and when either oi these gentlemen were otT the lineup it was keenly felt. Charles Scherf, three-year man, was one of the su))])orting stones of the Bronco infield. He played shortstop, covering the area in fine graceful style, which made him a very clependahle infielder. His throw to the first hag after some diflicnlt catch l:)rought him he fore the eye of the puhlic frequently with applause. His hitting did not half reach the stride of last spring, hut he worked as hard and as conscientiously as usual for the general good of the team. Jack Miller, at second hase, had a good ear hoth in the field and with the hludgeon. Miller was up in the select circle of the .300 hitters. He was faulty only a few times, and always managed to redeem 1 - means of hase hits, luldie l.ennon, at first liase, played a good fielding game at all times, though he wasn ' t quite as pow- erful at hat as the fans would have liked. McKee, Dagley and Butler, who took turns now and then handling vacant places in the outfield, deserve special mention here. McKee stands out as one of the leading sacrifice hitters on the Bronco nine. Dagley did not connect as often with the hall as he would like to have done, hut LETTER MEN GoTTw.

Giving all the players their just due, it may be said that they were a trying bunch and deserved greater success The follow- ing scores and reviews of the games will tell more in detail the story of the 1926 Bronco season : Cluh Games Crystal Billiards Scries Feb. 15, Feb. 20, March! The Broncos vied with the Crystal Bil- liards, a semi-pro team of San Jose, in a series of three games in which the Broncos won twice. The Crystal Billiards went down l efore the hard-hitting Broncos in the first game, February 15, by a score of 9 to 2. Five runs in the first frame put the encounter on the so-called iceberg. Bar- celoux and Brown were the mound toilers for the Santa Clara nine. In the second game with the Ijilliards, played on February 20, the result was a well-earned victory for the Billiards, the count being 7 to ,3. Sohler, a Coast League prospect, pitched for the San Joseans, completely baffling the Bronco batters. The Broncos found Sohler loose only in the first frame, when they touched him for a page full of base hits and three runs. Randazzo, Scherf and Morey were the big-stick wielders of the day. The third game was truly a thriller.

The Broncos made it a nice day by trouncing the visitors from San Francisco, who had established a good winning record, by the score of 9 to 2. jack Miller and Tom Ran- dazzo were in the limelight, clouting out base hits at opportune stages to help win the game.

When the University opened its doors for the fall semester in August, 1925, there were thirty- four members on the roster of the Society, and that number has since been aug- mented considerably by new members who have successfully aspired in football, basketball and baseball to wear the most coveted of college insignia. The Block S. C. Society has been scjcially jjrominent this year, having acted as hosts to the Student Body at numerous social functions throughout the course of the school year. The Society managed the first Associated Students ' dance of the year, which was given in Seifert Gymnasium on September 12 for the benefit of the newly re- organized Santa Clara band. On St. Patrick ' s eve, March 16, 1926, the Block S. C. Society entertained the students at a smoker held in Seifert Gymnasium. A moving picture appropriate to the day was the feature of the evening. On April 8 the Society was host to Coach Adam Walsh at an entertainment and rally in Seifert Gymnasium. President Malley, Captain Leonard Casanova and Coach Walsh spoke on the coming spring football practice. i6o| I j A ■£L toVf Top Row : Bacigalupi, Hadley Second Row: White, Zinsley, Kelly, Shea, Kilkenny, Woodley Third Row : Stoddard, Fusco, Nealis, Barceloux, King, Diepenbrock Athletic yiffanagers ' ' Association The opening of the 1925 football season saw the formation for the first time in the history of athletics at Santa Clara of a student association commissioned to manage all University sports. The Association operates upon the following system : It admits each year a num- ber of volunteers from the Freshman class ; these it trains by active managerial serv- ice during three years ; from these, after the preliminary term, it chooses a Senior manager for each sport. This system assures the constant availability of capable men for the more difficult managing positions. On the completion of each season the Senior man- ager is awarded a block letter, which is distinguished from the varsity letter by a white bar beneath. The Junior managers are awarded sweaters carrying the insignia A. M. A., with two stripes on the sleeve. The Sophomore managers are awarded similar sweaters, with one stripe. The officers of the Association during its first year are P. M. Barceloux, President; Thomas Woodley, Secretary; Mr. (Jerald D. Flynn, S. J., Faculty Moderator. The Association has already put on two very suc- cessful social afifairs, and bids fair to become one of the most active and popular organizations on the Mr. Gerald D. Flynn, S. J. campus.

Gafhxev, S. J. Principal Superior Spiritual Advisor Qollege Park It is a far cry from 1926 Ijack to 1S51 and the little ' ' P ' • ' ' Preparatory School boys who began the present University of Santa Clara. Up to last December lads of Preparatory School age were still at the University in the University ' s High School Department, sharing in all the greater achievements of their Alma Mater and bring- ing their meed of renown to the pioneer seat of Catholic education in the West. But with the forward trend of human affairs, it was desirable to have the High School of the University of Santa Clara in a separate locality. The former site of the College of the Pacific, in College Park, San Jose, offered an ideal location. The grounds covered seventeen acres in one of the residential districts bordering on the famous Alameda. These grounds were well wooded, set with ornamental trees and, over and above, had plenty of campus s])ace and room for athletic fields. Much, of course, would still have to be done in prejxiration. Though six buildings were on the jjrop- erty, one, the East Building, was f|uite beyond any renovation; repairs, varying in extent, were needed in all the rest. In ( )ctol)er, 1925, the prop- erty was purchased ; in less than a week ground was being cleared for the erection of a tempcjrary wooden classroom building. The dormitory build- ing was overhauled ; a co-oj) store and billiard room was fitted up in one wing of the din- ing hall building; the gym- nasium was re-roofed. Work was carried on so e.xpeditioush that on the first dav of the Christmas -acation the moving of equipment was begun fr(jm Kenna Hall. Kosika Hall S 1 651 Gxmnasium T Q second semester was scheduled to open January 5. Despite the tremendous task of movins ' a whole school in mid- year, in the brief space of a two weeks ' holiday, classes began as scheduled ; the only loss was in two laboratory periods when it was impossible to have the glass tubing, necessary for ex- periments, unpacked. Classes have gone on regularlv. Winds blew and storms came: new roofs leaked and old roofs were not all that they were supposed to be. The residence for the faculty — the oldest building on the property and a relic of anti([uitv — had Iteen replastered, but the incleiuent weather prevented its drying, and hence it was not occupied until some time in March. The instructors lived where they could ; half were obliged to go back and forth to Santa Clara. But with all this, class was never interrupted. From the very 1)eginning the ordinary activities seen in any Jesuit High School were in full vigor. In athletics, the basketball team held an enviable record ; baseball brought the lads again into their own; tennis beckoned to championship. Every month had some presentation of literary work. February gave the Dr. Joseph M. Toner Elocution Contest ; March held tlie regular monthlv class specimen in the auditorium and was red-lettered by the blessing of the New School and the initial appearance of the Glee Club. March, too, witnessed the Thomas L Bergin Public debate. April held the Novena in honor of the Second Centenary of the Canonization of Saint Aloysius, which closed with the presentation of a 1)eautiful statue of the saint bv the class of 1926. April also sponsored the new school ' s first dramatic work in an evening of One-Act Plays, and the contest for the Leahy T laywriting Prize. May saw the debate of the Junior Dramatic Society vs. St. Joseph High School in the K. C. hall for the Knights of Columbus trophy; the devo- tions in honor of Our Lady ; the Reception of new men:ibers into the Sanctuary Society ; and Commencement. The de- tailed record of these events is unfolded with pride in the fol- lowing pages. Dining Hall 661 Juiciilty Raymond Buckley, S. J. Physics and Mathematics Chari.ks Bi ' nriE. S. J.

The selections were remarkably well adapted to those who gave them, and were pleasantly various. A large audience received with enthusiasm the efiforts of all the contestants, among whom a decision was difficult to make.

Morey, Lastreto (§tudent Qoiincil The Preps, arriving in Jannary at their new scliool, and at lengtli altogether inde- pendent of the Student Body Congress of the University, saw at once the need of a new Constitution. The Constitution which was accordingly drawn up followed the lead of the University Student Body in abolishing the old unwieldly form of Student Body meetings. In its place, the Student Council, consisting of officers elected by the Student Body, of two representatives from each class, and of the officers of all campus societies, was invested with student government. The Student Body officers elected in the fall semester, while the Preps were yet within the University, were retained; and their efi ' orts, combined with the capable direction of Father h ' alvey, the moderator, account for much of what the Council has accomplished. Fatjo is President of the Council. The mcjst important action of the Council was the substitution of an S. C. block letter in sports for the old Prep block. The new letter is similar to the Varsity letter. Besides the usual matters of sludent government, the Council has also extended its activity to include the management of athletics. During the l ' )36 basketliall and baseball seasons it acquitted itself creditably in this department. |i73l Top Row: Fader, W. Danielson, R. Danielson, A. Ruettgers, Mouat Second Row: F.

For many years the Sanctuary Society at Santa Clara has been known for its high ideals of the reverence and solemnity due to the public worship of God. When the High School moved to College Park, a new organization was a necessity, but the old ideals were laid down as its foundation, and its members are now earnestly striving to preserve these ideals by their devotion and reverence while assisting at the altar of God. Without a personal exemplar the attainment of ideals is fairly impossible to the human will. To fill this need the Sanctuary Society at the University had chosen St. John Berchmans as their patron and model, and they did this not only because he was the universal patron of acolytes, but because his zeal for God ' s service was so great that he served two or three Masses every day. The new Society has adopted the Constitution of the parent body, with but few changes ; and in doing so has taken St. John as its patron. Only five members remained from the Santa Clara organization, and twelve stu- dents have been admitted as candidates. A reception to membership is being planned for late in the semester. The Society is greatly indel)ted to the University for its cassocks and surplices, but is still in need of further equipment, and on this account is hindered from assist- ing at divine services in a body. Following are the officers for this semester: Pres- ident, John De Maria; Secretary, Joseph Carew ; Treasurer, Robert Danielson; Censor, F. Ruettgers ; Sacristan, Joseph Carew. |i74l The anta (3lcira Until the Christmas vaca- tion, when the Preps left the University for a campus of their own at College Park, a Prep page was included in the hi-weekly Santa Clara.

De Mono Jioiior T)ramatic (§ociety This year ' s history of the Junior Dramatic Society might well he summed up in the one word Success. Through the conscientious efforts of the Moderator, Mr. William L. Davis, S. J., and the zealous co-operation of the memhers, the Society has elevated to a great degree the standard of Prep del ating. Dehates were held at each meeting of the Society, and every dehate called forth a warm discussion, among memhers well versed in the question at issue. Interest in the w(jrk of the Society steadily increased among the memhers through- out the scholastic year, and culminated in the puhlic dehate, held on May 5, against St. Joseph ' s on the question : Resolved, that San Jose and Santa Clara should unite under the name of San Jose. Sanfilippo, R(jwe and Bryner represented the Junior Dramatic Society, and upheld the negative with ahle speeches. The vitality of the Society may be attril)uted in great part to the restriction of the membership and the establishment of scholarship and conduct requirements for admission — two changes introduced this year by Mr. Davis. 11761 Top Row: Riley, Hardiman, Howard, Valente, Koehle, Vasconxellos.

It maintained so high a standard of debate that, during the spring semester, its mem- bers were asked to speak in open forum, and took the opportunity with great success. During the year the Society conducted de1)ates on the following questions: Jap- anese Agitation, [Prohibition, Court-Martial of Colonel Mitchell, Increase of Arma- ments, Collegiate Football Methods, Professional Football, l asketball versus Base- l)all, Light Wines and ]5eers, San Francisco versus Los Angeles, Female Govern- ment, Capital Punishment, I ' hilippine Independence, Immigration, World Peace, Child Labor, State Censorship of Movies, Moral Condition of Youth, Morality and Civilization, Classics versus Mathematics.

The formation of the intra- mural league, however, aroused a good deal of spirit. Several teams were quickly made up, and intramural football got off to a good start. Some of the teams, it is true, dropped out early in the season ; hut the league continued to sponsor a good many interesting exhibitions, and functioned until January. The i)rincii)al team of the league was The I ' ighting Irish. To their games thev brought the advantages, not only onl ' of an unexcelled lineup, but of preparation by diligent and regular practice. William A. West captained The Fighting Ir ish, and to his relialile work at center is due much of the success of their season. The Fighting Irish ])layed their principal game against ( )ur Team, captained by Bob Manulal. Though inferior in condition to The Fighting Irish, and lacking the advantage of long practice, Alanulat ' s eleven numbered several clever men, and played an exciting game. The greater experience and better condition of The Fight- ing Irish told, however. The Notre Dame shift worked smoothly and served them well on the oiTense ; and on ()i1 ense or defense the line was strong. The Fighting Irish made large gains on plunges, and finally chalked up a victory. Much credit should be given to Joe Day and Louis Caiiurro, coaches of The Fighting Irish, for their industry as well as their knowledge of football. The Fighting Irish ] la cd a pcjst-.season game at Menlo Park after Christmas against a team comi)osed of the best high school material in that section. The Fight- ing Irish had given over practice and training some while jjrevious ; and this, com- bined with the disadvantages of a wet field, which favored the heavy Menlo team and slowed the light, speedy backs of The blighting Irish, accounts for the 28-6 defeat. The game was marked by ragged ])laying and fumbles on the part of the Preps and unerring recoveries on the part of the Menl(j team. .80 J ■ ito , 4 |[i8i]| Top Row: Krattigf.r, Capurro, A-Ialley (Coach), Calou, Rooney (Captain) Second Row: A.

J., the moderator, the Prep Ijasketball team had a good season, and completed a hard schedule. The season was marred by only four defeats, two to Santa Clara High and two to St. Mary ' s I ' reps. All the games were interesting, and nearly all closely contested and undecided to the very end. The season has, at any rate, definitely shown that much may Ije expected for the future of Prep basketball. George Malley, captain of the Santa Clara Varsity quintet for the present season, coached the Prep team. Not only is Coach Malley expert at the game, but he has the power of instilling in the plavers that spirit which is necessary for victory. Rooney captained the Prep quintet. !

J., had a splendid season. The prospects at the beginning of the year were rather gloomy, as the team lacked both experience and size. If the Midgets were to hold their own during the season, it was at once seen that careful drilling and organization were necessary. These were supplied, both through the patient effort of Mr. Falvey, and through the determined spirit of the team ; it is noteworthy that the Midgets did not omit a single practice during the season. The result of this training was apparent in the opening games. The Midgets played clever ball, and showed a thorough knowledge of the fundamentals of the game. Captain Alorey proved an alert and steady leader. His cool judgment made him the stay of his team in the pinches, and he was the individual star of nearly every game. Several of the Midgets should prove to be valuable j layers on the Preji team next year, where graduation will leave several vacancies.

Associated Qompanies - San Francisco and Oakland ENGINEERING SOCIETY Continued The Society proceeded rapidly with its advertising campaign. Circular letters were sent to practically all the parish priests on the Coast asking for the names of Catholic boys in their respective parishes. Catalogues were forwarded to the boys whose names were thus obtained. It is expected that this advertising will increase the membership of the Society by at least 50 per cent, and without doubt will add to the enrollment in the other departments. The rising prominence of the Engineering School was demonstrated this year by the appointment of four Senior engineers to graduate schools in the East. James Harrison will enter the General Electric school at Schenectady next fall, and Frank Miramontes, John Vukota and Alexander Tosi will go to Pittsburg with the West- inghouse Company. The selection of these four men to obtain the high-class in- struction ofifered l)y these schools is evidence of the esteem that these two large engineering companies have for Santa Clara ' s College of Engineering. As a regular function of its work, the Enginering Society makes it a practice to obtain the services of men prominent in the engineering field to lecture to the members on engineering topics, in order to acquaint them with actual engineering problems and conditions. This year, due to the work of the Program Committee and the unselfishness of the men who consented to give their services, the Society heard many good lectures by noted men. The first speaker to be presented before the Society was the President of the University, Reverend Father Maher, a man from whom the Society is always glad to hear.

On October 6 the Society heard an interesting talk by Coach Adam Walsh, a graduate mechanical engineer of Notre Dame. He told some experiences of his own engineering college days. At the conclusion of his lecture he was made an honorary meml)er of the Enginering Society of the University of Santa Clara and was presented with the Society ' s emblem by President Tosi. Other noted men who spoke before the Society during the term were Mr. Popp, city engineer of San Jose ; Mr. Baker, of the Westinghouse Company, who gave an illustrated lecture on the electrification of the steel industry ; Dr. EgloiT, of Petro- leum Products Company, who discussed and illustrated the means of manufacture of gasoline and hiljricating oils by the cracking and distillation processes ; and Mr. Boring, of the General Electric Company, who gave an interesting stereopticon lecture on the work of the students at the General Electric school at Schenectady. On August 28, 1925, Dean Sullivan entertained the members of the Society at a lawn partv at his home on Madison Street. The older members enjoyed an evening at cards, while the Sophomore and Freshman classes participated in a contest to decide their superiority in the playing of lawn games. The Freshmen won the contest and the right to have the name of their class engraved on the Dean ' s cup. All the members of the Society enjoyed a banquet prepared hy Mrs. Sullivan.

The Lanai was beautifully decorated with a red and white background and with a large eml)lem of the .Society as the notable feature. The program and favors were handsomely engraved with the shield of the Society. The final meeting of the engineers for the year was held in San jose on May 6, at the Hotel Vendome. The occasion was the annual banc uet. President Tosi, the toastmaster for the evening, called upon several for a few words. San Jose musicians furnished the entertainment for the aiTair, and the delicacies of the bancpiet made the evening enjoyable for all.

A ' lary ' s Scries March 9. 20 The Broncos and the Saints tangled in the first game of the yearly series at ] lissi(jn Feld. Santa Clara. The Saints w(jn the opener I:)y the score oi 6 to 2. Inahility to hit at the right time, unsteady pitching, and errors at other times, all heljjed to spell defeat for the Santa Clara nine at the liands of the Saints under ' ' Slip Madigan. The Saints started to chalk up tallies in the early innings, and the Bronco twirlers could not stoj) them. Rooney, who i)itched for the Saints, held the Broncos in. the palm of his hand most of the game. The Broncos threatened to stage rallies at intervals, Init Rooney man- aged to finish with an(. ther scalp appended to his helt. Campisi replaced Gottwals on the mound for the Mission nine. Errors were the source of several of the Saint ' s runs, and the eleven hits, even though scattered, raised havoc with the Santa Clara team. Inability to hit at the right time is the chief cause to which the defeat was attributed. fdiitiimed mi paue 222 HAMILTON NEWS AGENCY, News Dealer, Stationer, Santa Clara E.

This game was plaved on the Saints ' home lot at Oakland. It was replete with the usual basehall thrills, and the ljronc(js well deserved the victory. To Tony Campisi, who worked gallantly on the uKjund for the Broncos, goes much of the commendation for the Saints ' defeat. In winning this contest, the Broncos tied the series, and the tie remains, as neither team could find an open date on which to play it off. Campisi let the Saints down with only eight hits. Tliis hit of nice jiitching was aided hy splendid infield and outfield support, something which had been lacking in the team ' s play for some time. Mueter pitched for the Saints. Jack I ' ansy Miller, the heady Bronco second baseman, and Charles Falk, at third base, were the stars of the afternoon. Miller secured three nice hits, while Falk played in .spectacular manner at third base. Falk made some sensational stops of line drives and groimd balls, which rlrew down a big hand from the fans.
