Santa Clara, Calif. IN RETROSPECT

May 21, 1959 marked a happy occasion at Santa Clara - the Golden Jubilee o£ Brother James M. Dunn, S.J. At eleven o ' clock, the Very Reverend Carroll M. O ' Sullivan, S.J., Provincial of the California Province of the Society of Jesus ascended the high altar in the Mission Church to offer a special Mass of Thanksgiving. In the sanctu- ary knelt Brother Dunn who united his prayers of gratitude through the sacrifice as he thanked God for the grace of fifty years of service in the Society that bears the name of His Son. The Jesuit Jubilarian was surely at home before the altar, for it was here that he has labored for nearly half of his religious life. Day by day for almost a quarter of a century has Brother Dunn arisen before five o ' clock to prepare for the early Masses in the Mission Church. And here he labors until he rings the De Profundis bells at eight-thirty in the evening. Brother Dunn was boin in Cork on June 12, 1886. It takes almost an act of faith to believe he is seventy three years old, so sprightly is his bounce and so youthful his face. When Brother was five years old, the Dunns moved to England, and Brother made his way to Canada and to California in 1909, entering the Jesuit Order at Los Gatos in the same year when he was twenty-three years old. Over the years since his vows, he has served as Assistant Treasurer at the Univeisity of San Francisco and at Seattle Ujiiversity, but his real home is Santa Clara. For many years, in the days when the Provincial Resi- dence was attached to St. Joseph ' s Church in San Jose, Brother would finish his morning sanctuary chores here at the Mission and then walk all the way to San Jose to work as secretary to the Provincial. His first assignment to Santa Clara came in 1915 when he supervised the laundry and student coop, and many an alumnus of that vintage has remarked that the humble Brother of Santa Clara has changed very little in forty years. This man of quiet cheerfulness with a twinkle in his heart has been a source of joy to Broncos of many and many a year, and the students of Santa Clara are proud to salute Brother James M. Dunn, S.J. on the occasion of his Golden Jubilee!
