The Creek gentleman strived for intellectual excellence and only secondarily regarded the manly virtues of bravery in war, stamina on the gaming fields, and competence in the every day mechanics of life. The Romans, reversing the order of things, relegated sheer intellectualism to a subordinate positiong the lawmaker's lexicon, the architect's plumb, the soldier's sword - these were the formal causes of Rome. The High Middle Ages produced a race which synthe- sized the Creek and Roman ideals, seeking to sublimate them to a nobler one. This was Qthe Christian concept of the brotherhood of man under the Fatherhood of Cod. It was the perfect knight who most closely approached Cardinal Newman's description of a gentleman: One who never inflicts pain. Succeeding generations mistook the accidents of knighthood for the essence. Nobility of soul and purpose was therefore perverted to an ellieminate code of conduct characterized by superficiality and' bombast. Even today this misconception persists in our adulation of the dashing playboy. v ' Providence' College, incorporating the philosophy and theology of St. Thomas into its program of liberal education, inculcates in the student a sense 'of ifobility, grounded on virtue informed by Charity. The Thomistic Gentleman is morally, socially, and intellectually, axfully developed man, embodying the ideals of previous ages. Possession of truth concerning Cod and creation, freedom from the domination of the mundane, ability to serve society and self-these are'the traits of . . 1 . ' - . I..

The tragedy of our age is that it worships at the altar of the machine. At the inception of our materialistic civilization, progress was thought to be the messiah which would finally realize the Colden Age of Man. Its failure in this matter has been an irreconcilable blow to the morale of our century. The moderns have come to realize that progress is a treadmill, as old ills are dis- pensed with, new ones come to the fore and the earth is substantially un- changed. The suicidal character of the race for the ultimate in nuclear weapons has made the heralds of lVIan's coming of age the soothsayers of his extinction. Man's faith in man has come to nothing, and the Codless are faced with a cul de sac. To those who have-Cod, therefore, belongs the mission of saving the world from this cancerous nihilism. They are the steadfast ones, for they are agitated by a force which is beyond man. They draw upon the resources of Cod for their strength. While it is fashionable for the atheistic intellectual to lament the terrible misfortune of having to live in such an atmosphere of destruction, the Catholic college graduate finds that he is the one who must lead the world, by the solid example of positive action placed in the trust of Cod, into a realization of the duties of man to his Creator. There is no better environment for the training of the young Catholic in his most essential task than Providence College. The name itself repre- sents the Paternal Interest of Cod in His creatures. The diocese in which the College is located is governed by a Bishop whose coat of arms invokes Mary, Mother of I-lopef' The state in which the school is situated has I-lopel' for its motto. This is the incubus of the Providence College graduate, an atmosphere exuding the confidence that the future is taken care of by the Almighty Himself. There is no better place for the fulfillment of the Catholic educational aim: the orientation of the complete man to the life he must lead. This edition of the Veritas is dedicated to the Class of 1955 with the confidence that they will in every way epitomize the Catholic ideal, and in doing so quickly become the exemplars which their Houndering fellow men may well emulate.

AM Ars-f it MAREA T5i!?.TEll SMU can i N the years that you have gov- erned the Diocese of Providence, you have left an indelible impres- sion upon us as a truly liberal edu- cator, a genuine friend of Provi- dence College, and an outstanding member of the Catholic hierarchy. Your interest in the College has been a vital factor in its inesti- mable success as an advocate of Truthg your solicitucle toward the student body has been our encour- agement in the struggle to develop into true Christian gentlemen, ex- emplars of Providence College. You have given us a deep insight into the problems which our gener- ation must face in a world clouded by doubt, despair, and cynicism-- the daughters of faithlessness. We are most grateful to you for the wise guidance you have given us in the moral and intellectual spheres. We consider ourselves for- tunate to have been entrusted to the care of such an exemplary Apostle of the Church. We thank Cod for this blessing and pray that He may continue to inspire you with wisdom and may bless your future with success. S President of the Corporation of Providence College, you have indirectly but forcibly exercised your influence upon us. Through your astute leadership the College has prospered from its humble origins into an institution of considerable stature, highly re- spected for the excellence of its instruction. Under your direction, Provi- dence College has expanded its Fa- cilities, enabling it to reach an ever-broadening circle. The same success which char- acterizes all your endeavors was again in evidence when you held the position of Vicar General of the Order of Friars Preachers. The high ideals of Truth and Faith which have been inculcated in us here have aroused a feeling that we shall never be able to re- pay you for your beneficence. Our ardent prayer, therefore, is that Cod may assume our tremen- dous debt by rewarding you with even more success in your position of capital importance.

You have manifested this con- sideration for us in the formula- tion of decisions which are ever or- dained to the welfare of your stu- dents. Your frequent appearances at our campus activities have made us all the more aware of your pa- ternal interest in our well-being. Now we must leave our College to go out into the world and face the formidable challenge of the future. We leave with the knowl- edge and the wisdom which will make us equal to the challenge. We have been well equipped hy the incomparable faculty which you govern. We hope that the fruition of their lahors, and yours, will he seen in the future, as the gradu- ates of the Class of 1955 attain their places in the City, State, and Nation as outstanding citizens, loyal alumni, and, above all, as exemplary Christians.

I can loolc out from my room in Aquinas Hall and appreciate the sights that I have grown to love over the years: traditional, dignified Harlcins Hall guarding the main ap- proach to the campusg the grotto, sequestered in a remote corner and injecting a reverent note into the hushed Fall atmosphereg the tortuous paths, snalcing their white way to the various buildings . . .There is much of Providence Col- lege that is immutableg yet, there is evidence of change. New buildings clot the campus where once there were but grass, and trees, and shrub- hery . . . P.C. has been the center of much ac- tivity in our stay here, and we are proud to have been responsible for much of it. . .The history of the Class of 1955 is an imposing one. It is a testimonial to the diligence of this body. RONALD W. ANDERSON, B.S. Accounting 76 Oakdale Avenue Pawtucket Pt. I.

I We entered Providence College on Sep- tember 19, 1951, a day memorable For the end- less forms that had to be Filled out, our first meeting with the President of the College, and the physical, where we made our First acquaint- ances under rather embarrassing circumstances . . . Our first impression of the School was some- what like that of one ,entering the Service: lines and waiting, lines and more waiting. . .It was hard to Elisabuse us of this opinion since we found ourselves, at the end of those interminable lines, being distributed uniforms. To our relief, we discovered that we were conscripted for Tuesday afternoons only, we were spanking new cadets of the equally new Reserve Oliicers' Training Corps . . . The first few weeks were a time of adjustment and orientation, but already we were beginning to absorb a little class spirit and uesprit de corps. X. S. FRANK BARONE, A.B.

More than once were we approached by fthe local Huey Longs and pressured for our vote until we could intrude ourselves into the diatribe and explain that we were not eligible to vote. We didn't have to wear beanies then and it made things quite confusing for the amateur politicians. . .Our own class was beginning to stir from its stupor, and names like Charlie Cnys and Iohn Bowab were linked with the COWL. Tom Coyne took up the drum major's baton in the P1.O.T.C. band, and Ken Kerr caught the eye of Frosh Coach Hal Martin . .. We saw for the first time the buoyant effect on school spirit of a Friar victory over the Rams as our barriers ended a string of Ram victories . . . And we swelled with pride at choosing Ike as the next President in a poll conducted by the COWL. PAUL B. BOIVIN, BS. Physics 1178 High Street Central Falls, R. I.

A blood-mobile from Newport, hearing that we were red-blooded Americans, came to drain away 650 quarts of the precious stuff. . . A far- reaching decision was made by the Athletic Office when they decided to field an informal hockey team. Drawing from the plethora of schoolboy stars like Toni lVlcAleer and Ray Far- rell, the Providence College hockey team was destined for great things . . .There are sad notes in any history, and for us, they were the passing of the Reverends John Kennedy, O.P., former professor of philosophy here at the College, and Walter R. Farrell, O.P., author of The Com- panion to the Summa. The knowledge which they left us is a most treasured legacy. . .Word from Rome: the Very Reverend Terrence Mc- Dermott was elected to his sixth term as Provin- cial of thc Dominican Fathers of St. Iosephls Province.

The Very Reverend Robert Slavin brought more renown upon himself and the College by qualifying for the highest degree that can be conferred upon a member of the Domini- can Order, that of Master and Doctor of Sacred Theology. . .Christmas was in the air and the boys, impelled by the universal and dread dis- ease, lackoffumlia, grudgingly went ,off to work for the duration of the Christmas recess. . . Wlieii we returned, it was finally our turn at playing politician. Fifteen aspirants stuck their heads out, hoping that it would not fall under the axe ol: popular opinion. The favored four won handily, and our officers for the year were: Dave Reynolds, Presidentg Tom Callahan, Vice- President, Len Kicrnan, Secretary, and Harold Higgins, Treasurer. . .The Rev. Stephen Iu- raslco, Dean of Men, steered the Carolan Club to a rousing success in its annual Dorm Weelc- end. One hundred couples had the time of their lives in the three-day festivities. FRANCIS A.

Maybe someday the white-coated men of Albertus will be able to say that they played an important part in the tracking down and de- struction of this agent of the Grim Reaper... The R.O.T.C. held its first Ball at the Sheraton Biltmore, and we had a view of more brass than we could find in Waterbury. Some of it was in uniform and some of it came wearing tails. The latter group included such prominent dignitaries as Walter Reynolds, Mayor of Provi- dence, and a group of his political associates. The affair was a tremendous success. This was due in no small way to the fact that We all had our uniforms on and felt pretty doggone proud of ourselves . . . RALPH S. COPPA, A.B. Economics 84 Wayne Street I-Ioxsie, R. I.

It only seemed like yesterday that we had arrived and fallen in with a bunch of guys whom We had never seen before in our lives. Here we were- gravely shaking hands and parting like lifelong brothers...We left for the hometown at the end of May and most of us began to punch a clock for the summer in return for those long green photographs of George and the boys who lived in the White I-louse. You see, we in- tended to return in September and it seems that Father Fennel and the entire administration had some foolish idea about paying for staying- rnaterialists, all . . . So ended our first year and the thirty-fourth of the institution on Smith Hill. More than a few of us waited for that little white card to see if We would be around for the thirty-fifth . . .

Casey in NZD on the second Hoor. It didn't taks us long to figure Father Casey and find him to be one of the best friends we had, as well as an outstanding man and exemplary priest. . . Then it was October and politics reared its ugly head. lt got so you couldn't get a guy to pass you the salt unless you promised to vote for him and swear to his worthiness over your mashed potatoes.

In the swirling midst of Autumn leaves and the dusky glow of the harvest moon, we found the Soph Hop close upon us. john Bowab and Paul Asciolla were appointed by President of the class Len Riley to make all those big and little arrangements which would insure the success of the event. They worked hard, and our hopes were very definitely not in vain. We had a visitor from the sports world that year too.

The boys in the Dorm got a money-saving break when Father Ed had a washer-dryer Laundromat installed next to the Penguin Room.

The Pyramid Players livened up our entertainment world with their presentation of Moonglow. The Baron and his boys really had it when it came to musical comedy. Father Cannon took his Choraleers down to Yale's home grounds in New Haven to wind up their season of song and brought down the house with their renditions. The Martinmen were getting close to the wire in their diamond battles, too. Hal and the weatherman couldn't get together on too many occasions, and as a result, the won-lost column didn't impress many people. The bright side showed itself through, in the personages of Messrs. Romherg and Howe. Gas- house Dick was the man to watch and it didn't take rival hurlers long to realize this fact.

To our way of thinking, that was the time when they would separate the men from the boys. lt was. going to be rough . . . We had something on our side, though, the Very Reverend Robert Slavin, OP., had been appointed to his third term as President of the College. It took a Papal dispensation to keep him here, but we still had a good leader for the coming campaign and that's all we cared about ...The beanie-clad Freshmen made their ap- pearance on the campus for the first time in many moons, another tradition was revived in Friartown . . . Harry Coates and the P.C. har- riers took a trip up the Hudson and made the Black Knights look like a bunch of lackeys by defeating them 27-30 . . .

It was a gratifying experience to see the Dads meeting each other and getting ac- quainted with the faculty members to whom their sons are entrusted . . . The medical re- searchers received a substantial grant from the American Heart Association for the purpose of studying the metabolism of sterols and cancerous growths. To the uninformed, it would seem that there was more research going on here at Smith Hill than at Oak Ridge. There is just one vital difference, up here they are out to save lives . . . Another indication of passing years: the Class of .1955 received their class rings. It would not be long now. ROBERT R. MICHAUD, B.S. Business Management 1203 Plymouth Avenue Fall River, Mass.

Septones singing with Dorothy Collins and Snoolcie Lanson, stars of the Hit Parade. They were doing their bit in the 'annual Charity Drive put on for the benefit of the St. Vincent de Paul Society . . . It was March too that saw typewriter tyrants put the 1954 edition of the VERITAS to bed with hopes that it would be accepted as a job well done. Their fondest hopes were realized . . . Father Slavin, Covernor Roberts, and other notables inaugurated the P. C. chapter of Alpha Epsilon Delta, the na- tional preinedical Honor Society. This was just another bit of evidence that the College was moving towards that degree of recognition which it deserves. The scientists from Albertus Magnus were wined and dined for their fine work.

In early May, it was announced by Father Dore that Providence College would return to the five-day week, Crins pervaded the faces of all those hard-work- ing' students enrolled in Sackti1ne 102. To quote Frank Samuel Taylor Coleridge Bruck- berger, Ah Sleep! It is a gentle thing, beloved from pole to pole . . 3' The last event of real interest to the students was the defeat of the Bruin nine right in their own backyard. Carl Buniva and Pete Drury were the heroes as the victory was acclaimed as one of the high spots ol the year . . . The Pr.O.T.C.

There are a great many rea- sons why this is so, but just for the record, lid like to enumerate a few of them for you. First and foremost, it is the last chapter and as such, it brings to an abrupt halt the chronicle of the four most memorable years of our lives. And then, it is an extremely dillicult task to do jus- tice to all in describing the activities of the people you have lived with and come to know so well when you are limited to so few pages . . . The salient points only can be covered, and any deletions are attributable to the necessary limitations of a brief history . . . To begin with, we returned to the hallowed halls of Providence on September 14, and from then until about the middle of October, the boys gathered at Bradley I-lalll' to tell war stories and to discuss the rugged conditions at A.

His fellow officers were Ralph Coppa, Vice-President, Ed Scanlon, Sec- retary, and John Higgins, the all important Treasurer . . . The hockey team came to life on December 12, as they dealt a 5-2 defeat to the Bruins in a game which had us in hysteries . . . The hockey team, with its periodic successes, stood in bold relief from the basketball team, which was experiencing a mediocre season . . . Semester exams in January had all the Seniors in agony, for many, they were the ones which would, for all practical purposes, determine whether they would graduate on schedule.

But meanwhile, there were more immedi- ate problems. The Rams administered the coup- de-grrice to a floundering basketball team, but the'-future.-looks brighter. Freshman Stats like Holmes, Jenkins, Tirico, and Canestari made us envious of the under-classmen who would be around to witness their successes. And the Gym which has been long coming is nearing completion. There is a feeling of kinship be- tween us and the Gym, for it first began to be taken seriously when we arrived, and we have watched it grow from a pit to a steel skeleton to a hollow shell to a completely equipped and modern Gym. Iolm Bowab has been weaned away from his job in the snake pit and Jim Renzi is in a frenzy as the new Cowl editor. In his spare time, lim puts on his other cap and worries about plans for the Iunior Prom and this year's presentation of the Pyramid Players. ROBERT J. RYAN, B.S.

Marriage plans were being made by several and a few had already taken the big step. A lfew days' absence and everyone would jump to conclusions. Ray Farrell and Cene Hagan acquired their mates and that distant loolc in the eyes of others was a sign that there were more nuptials in the ofhng . . . One of the more exciting facets of campus life in February was the impending birth of lim Cote's heir. A pool was organized and half the people on campus had a personal interest in the hour of arrival. lim was not worried about the money, however. . . .

There was a package affair for us the week- end of February 4, 5, and 6: the Carolan Club and the R.O.T.C. combined efforts to sponsor the biggest weekend of the school year. With the Military Ball and the Dorm Weekend tak- ing place simultaneously, the City relived Hur- ricanes Carol and Edna all over again . . . A quick post-script to the history: Dave Reilly and Ralph Gentile have been appointed Co- Chairmen of our Commencement Ball which was set for june 2 . . . It seems that our time for the month of May has already been ac- counted for, what with all this talk of picnics, dances, balls. Then too, I heard something about Hnal exams, which we must somehow Ht into the rigid schedule. DANIEL J. SULLIVAN, A.B. Biology Shephard Avenue Newport, R. I.

Witli a few games left, the team broke even against tough com- petition. The political scientists were agog with speculation as the news was released that Malen- lcov had resigned. The Kremlin was under new ownership and we wondered about the reper- cussions . . . And there was nasty business going on at Formosa and we wondered about that too . . . On the lighter side, John Valva scored again as he followed his interview for the Cowl with Liberace with another more timely one, with Debbie and Eddie. They had come to Providence for the St. Vincent de Paul Con- cert. The Clee Club Dominotes maintained their reputations as bon vivantsl' when they departed for an engagement in Albany , . . EUGENE F.

Mr. Fortin was clamoring for the history and his strident yelps brought about a premature halt to this tome. There is much that has to be left unsaid, and this last semester must be aban- doned, though it will undoubtedly be one of intense excitement. Yet, the memory of those involved can be entrusted to retain the epochal events of the last semester: Cap and Cown Day, the Senior Picnic, the Commencement Ball, Baccalaureate Sunday and Commencement Day, these are incidents of such dramatic and personal significance that they would probably suffer by being formalized in writing.

The Liturgy Club aims to make the stu- dents participants in the Sacramental life of the Church. The members, through lectures and discussions, achieve an understanding of the Mass, the Sacraments, and the prayers of the Church, enabling them to take a more active part in their religion. This year, the members of the club re- ceived instruction on how to make spiritual use of the feast days and Sundays of the liturgical year. The highlight of the club's activity was the Liturgical Workshop held here at the College and participated in by students from several other colleges. The subject of the discussions was the liturgical apostolate of St. Pius X, the great sponsor of the liturgical movement. Fw- 9s,?'l+l7 First Rofw, left to right: G. Deary, D Giammarco J Hagan, L.

Students participate in the R-ed Mass. Our spiritual leader speaks A consideration of the whole man, and his complete preparation for entrance into the world of his fellowmen, this is the aim of Prov- idence College, Besides the beakers and the slide-rules, the Shakespeare and the Horace, the laughter and the cheering, there is another, an entirely more vital aspect in the life of a Provi- dence College student. As the following pages will all too well testify, the soma of the P.C. undergraduate is well cared for. The principal, often unnoticed, but primary aim of a Catholic education is the adequate care of the student's psyche. It is the inculcation and awareness of the Ultimate End which shall always remain of primary importance at Providence College. From the annual Mass of the Holy Chost in September, to the last Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament the day he leaves for home, the Providence College student is provided with a maximum of opportunities for the ad- vancement and betterment of his soul.

Vincent Dore, O.P. Acceptance into Delta Epsilon Sigma rep- resents the attainment of a goal coveted hy all Catholic college students. Its significance lies in the fact that membership is limited to those students who have distinguished themselves as academic and intellectual leaders during their years at college. No more than ten percent of a graduating class may receive the D.E.S. key in any given year. The D.E.S. was formed in 1938 to fill an ever increasing need for a national Catholic honor society in the United States. Many of its members are now among the outstanding lay- men of the Church.

Reichart, O.P. The Rhode Island Alpha Chapter of the National Premedical Honor Society, Alpha Ep- silon Delta, was inaugurated at Providence Col- lege in 1954. Membership in the society is awarded to premedical students in recognition of superior scholastic achievements. The A.E.D. performs a threefold function: it encourages excellence in premedical scholar- ship, it serves to stimulate an appreciation of the importance of a premedical educationg and lastly, it promotes cooperation and establishes contacts between medical and premedical stu- dents and educators in developing an improved program of premedical education. Founded at the University of Alabama in 1926, the A.E.D. has over twelve thousand members in sixty-four accredited colleges and universities throughout the country George introduces his date, who meets with the ap- proval of all concerned. 9 H 0 W H 0 In American Colleges and Universities Primary requisites for membership in Who's Wl1o are a high scholastic record and service to the College. Candidates are nomi- nated by at special Committee of the Student Congress, seconded by that body as 21 whole, and referred to the Dean of Men for final ap- proval. One outstanding advantage of being selected lor membership in this group is the recognition and preferment which is accorded its members by employers. mm A PAUL ASCIOLLA Bristol, R.

Come, follow me, said our Lord to the rich youth, but he was not willing. The call which he spurned has been answered by those men who reside in Guzman Hall, and who make up the Philomusian Society. The Society's main purpose is the govern- ment ol Guzman I-Iall. lt also fosters intellec- tual, social, and athletic activities. Its members are a congenial group whose genuine degree ol' fellowship is exceeded only by their singleness of purpose. Under the guidance of Father lVlcDermott, the men of the Philomusian Society pursue their years of study and spiritual preparation in our midst. They are a true credit to themselves, their College, and their calling, which may one day bring some of them back to PC. as pro- lessors. 100 First Rofw, left to right: J. Philibert, J. Hagan, G.

The Reserve Ofiicers, Training Corps at Providence Col- lege began its existence four years ago, right after the outbreak of the Korean Police Action. A contract was signed between the Administration and the Department ol' the Army. Ever since that day, the aspect of the Military has become an integ- ral part of the average studcnt's life here at P. C. In his fresh- man and sophomore years, a student, if he is physically qualified, is required to enroll in the two year basic course of the R.O.T.C. At the end of his sophomore year, a student who so wishes, and who has maintained a sufliciently high average, goes on to the advanced course, from which, upon graduation, he re- ceives a commission. Instruction includes all the elements of Military Science and Tactics. Under the direction of Col. Roy P. Moss, PMS8cT, and a very able staff, the budding crop of future oflicers is shepherded along the path of Military wisdom. I-lighspot of the year is the annual Dress Review held at Mt.

The National Federation of Catholic Col- lege Students is a bond of spiritual and social unity which embodies students from the vari- ous Catholic colleges and universities through- out the nation. lt is divided into geographical sections so that it might more capably administer to such a large jurisdiction, Providence College being a member of the New England region. There are thirteen national and regional commissions, each handling a specific phase of work, such as Mari- ology, radio, and forensics. The Annual Intercollegiate Dance and the Overseas Service Program's fund-drive and tag day for needy foreign students are two of the Federations well-supported campus activities.

The Monogram Club is an esoteric groupg since it is composed of our varsity athletes, who come into contact with the representatives of other colleges, membership is limited only to those who meet the requirements of proficiency on the athletic Held and exhibit the estimable quality of sportsmanship. This group, which proudly wears the Col- lege letter, enriches the prestige of Providence College in no small way: it annually sponsors the Varsity Hop and the perennially popular student boxing bouts. ' The object of the club is to breed a species of gentleman-athlete whose will to Win does not preclude his ability to lose graciously. The proof of its success is the admiration in which the athletes are held on Smith Hill. The Clulfs most popular project, the boxing bouts.

Since its inception twenty years ago, it has won award after award for excellence in its class. Last year, it was singled out as one of the seven best un- dergraduate publications by the American Col- legiate Press Association. The real tribute to the Cowl, however, is the warm reception which is accorded to it every Wednesday. The fresh Cowls are deposited at strategic points on campus, and every Provi- dence man has at one time or another gotten caught up in the surge toward the papers. It is a source of constant gratification for the editors to see the students drop all civilized instincts in favor of a dog-eat-dog attitude for the sake of his paper. ' The Cowl is entirely a student organiza- tion, a magnificent training ground for the prospective journalist. It is a hard-hitting im- partial olnserver of campus activities, generous in its praise, unrelenting in its criticism. It ful- fills a vital role as the voice of the student.

With a dictatorial air, he begins booming out the commands that set the staif working at a frenetic pace: the typists type, the photographers photograph, and the editors edit. The atmosphere is one of im- pending disaster and everyone is conscious of, and terrified by, the ominous deadline. The days roll by, the deadline is by-passed, and there is a threat that heads will roll. The top echelon is acutely conscious of what was the deadline and formulates a new one daily. Eventually, after many threatening let- ters from the publishers, and the transmission of that threat down the Veritas hierarchy to the meanest lackey, the 1955 Veritas is sent to press.

If Hippocrates were alive today, he would smile benignly upon the Albertus Magnus Club of Providence College. Whether the members would smile back-at him after a four-hour lab is mere conjecture, though. But enough of this phantasy. The fine re- sults of the club in its projects are in the realm of reality. The club, by sponsoring a variety of social events, and events of a more serious na- ture, offers our embryo healers a welcome respite from their tedious studies. lt also co-sponsors Science Day in conjunction with the Phi-Chi Club to introduce high-school seniors from the entire area to the science department of the school, its facilities, and its projects. ln addition, its members, through speakers who have already made their mark in the pro- fessional world, get a valuable insight into prob- lems they will have to face upon graduation.

Charles Quirk, O.P l ln a world which is constantly inflamed and torn by political, social, and religious strife, there are many pointedly pressing problems con- fronting the average man. This is especially so if this average man happens to be a Catholic. The dilemmas which face the Catholic college graduate arc as perplexing as they are numerous, personal, and economic. The raison ol'etre of the St. Antoninus Club is the airing and solution of these' prob- lems. Composed of Junior and Senior Economics Majors, the Club meets monthly under the wise direction of Father Quirli. A prominent guest speaker is always invited for the entertainment and enlightenment of the members and to an- swer any and all questions posed. 120 The Queen presides over a happy domain.

Here is an organization which strives through the participation and research of its members to revitalize the average student's in- terest in the fascinating science of History. Not an easy task, assuredly, but then the calibre of the organization is more than equal to the task. Under the watchfully wise eye of Father Forster, a member of the P. C. History Depart- ment, the Club holcls bi-monthly meetings. These meetings consist of stimulating historical lectures. The talks are given either by a famous guest expert or by a member of the Club who delivers a research paper upon which he has spent many hours of hard work.

Rev- John Lafflen, O-P l The Pyramid Players of P. C. were or- ,.-, X., x ganized in Iune, 1926, due to the earnest wishes i of the students to create and participate in orig- inal productions. These young Thespians, be- . 1 sides gaining invaluable personal experience, l N have broadened immeasurably the scope of col- I legiate activities on the campus. All composition, direction, and stage-setting are accomplished through the talent, persever- ance, and hard work of its members. In this way alone, the Pyramid Players easily become one of the most distinguished and vitally active clubs on the campus. Last year's president, Charles C-nys, wrote and directed Rome! Sweet Rome! with music by Frank Barone, a smashing success. If the Players can equal the musical coni- edy presented by last year's group, they will have reached a zenith in collegiate dramatics. l-lere is a club which labors to provide social entertainment for others-a rather unique claim ,, . . , - . . , 7 A f x W Ross calls down a kibitzer. to fame for a college organization.

They are visible at all campus activities, clicking busily away, recording for posterity Cand sometimes for their own prosperityl, the events of the various or- ganizations. They do the photographic work for the school's three publications, and it is to them that we are indebted for the pictures which will soon be treasured mementos. P. C. men are not the only ones who bene- lit from the work of the Camera Club. ln co- operation with the Community Chest, the club members brighten the lives of shut-in invalids by showing movies for the home-bound twice a month. ln this way, they truly comfort the siclc while acting as ambassadors of good will for the school.

C., it is evident that it shall en- joy a long life with such an organization as the Spiked Shoe Club to focus interest upon it. The club is composed of members of the Freshman and Varsity cross-country and indoor Track teams. However, you do not have to wear cleats and pound the boards to be a member. The only requirement is an avid interest and a keen relish for the oldest of sports. Social activities are started off in the Fall with a semi-formal dance to which all students are invited. ln Lent, there follows a Communion Breakfast with a distinguished speaker present for the entertainment and enlightenment of the members.

It chooses its members in a descending ratio from all classes, the final Yes or No being up to the Dean. The Friars' Club annually sponsors the Friars' Formal, a lavish affair, which was held this year in Aquinas Hall. Organized in 1928, the club serves as a host in all the social and athletic events held on campus, living up admirably to its motto, Welcome the coming and speed the parting guest.

It is dilficult to enumerate all the varied activities of the Providence College Student Congress. They range from listening to the alibis of squirming Freshmen who neglected to wear their beanies to the prompt enactment of legislation which is henelicial to the entire stu- dent body. Basically, the Student Congress is the es- sential huh around which revolves each and every facet of the undergraduates life. The fel- low who collects tickets at dances, the lad who tells you where to vote and what you are voting for, the man who enforces the wearing of the beanies,-this is the Student Congress in action. The task is enormous. The Student Con- gress is wonderfully equal to it. A snide remark is in the oyfing. N- 'vsp High seriousness is the theme as the Congress legislates. 2?

Amperes and angstroms, colloids and elec- tro-valents, meters and tubes, coils of mysterious wire, hordes of bubbling bealcers and thousands of little bits of litmus paper strewn over sheets and sheets of equations-all these make up the ethereal domain of the Phi Chi Club. Personal advancement in the fields of Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics are not the only activities of the Phi Chi Club, how- ever, each year it sponsors its High School Sci- ence Day. The purpose of this event is to give prospective science students a look at the many advantages offered them by a School of Science which is rated as one of New England's finest and most up to date. Composed of upper-class men, this club is a credit to its school. 134 Father Slauin welcomes a Science Day group. Nf 'CJJ . x t in 4 i I , , ll. i l x .

Moderator .......... ...Rev. James Hackett, O.P. The Barristers are the official debating so- ciety of the College. The society is open to all members of the four classes vvho are interested in public speaking and forensic competition in general. Throughout the year the Barristers engage in intercollegiate competition, both tour- nament style and individual debates, with many different colleges and universities in the East. Each year a debating topic is chosen by the National Forensic Association. This year's topic: Resolved: that the US. should extend diplo- matic recognition to Communist China. Though usually small in number, the Barristers, through many hours of hard work, regularly compile a very enviable record, thus bringing praise to their school and to their emi- nent organization. 135 i lip 'L X SX ALM lllllfllll fill Allllllll 2.5 An, unusual Aquinas pastime A more common one. This is the abode and habitat of the resi- dent student, who by his very nature requires a place to eat, sleep, and recreate. Take a good- sized building, about twenty-three priests, three hundred-odd students, and a lot of imagination, the resulting picture is Aquinas I-lall. The place is always a bee hive of activity. From the almost audible grinding of minds to the ghostly foot- steps of the Phantom Whistler in the halls late at night, the place literally jumps with dra- matic action. The Whistler was apprehended this year, by the way, but we are confident that another will soon rise to take his place . . .

He was referring to the new schedule which the New England Inter- collegiate Racing Association recently awarded our Sailing Club. The opposition consists of seventeen nautical giants to be encountered in eleven tournaments. Wlieii our sailors aren't stirring up a sil- very froth, the club members give classes in the art of sailing to teach the interested students the intricacies of small craft handling. During the winter months, they devote their time to fund-raising activities in order to acquire the necessary wherewithal to keep the fleet ship- shape. Though the Sailing Club is a small group, it is an active one. . 4 The fleet at anchor. IWLCIMLUI 0,K0vf0, Presi- dent First Rofw, left to righl: R. Gleason, G. Amaral, E. Lacroix, M.

Philip Skehan, O.P. The large number of students enrolled as Political Science majors here at the College is an indication of the importance of the St.Tho- mas More Club. This club serves the twofold purpose of giving its members a valuable in- sight into the field of law, while helping them to establish relations with distinguished attor- neys, who give periodic lectures during the year. Past members, now in graduate school, have only begun to realize the benefits which they have derived from it. It is for these reasons that the St. Thomas More Club, though only three years old, has already reached maturity and is well established on campus. The highlight of its social calendar was an informal dance held at the Roger Wil- liams Chateau. 'vt -Q1 'Yn- 1.. Fancy footwork with a legal twist.

One of the newest and most valuable addi- tions to our ever-growing number of campus organizations is the Sociology Cluln. Composed wholly of Sociology Majors whose avid interest in their chosen field is in itself extremely praise- worthy, the club functions under the estimahle and very skillful direction of Rev. William R. Clark, OP., and the members themselves are commanded by President John Durant. The activities of the Sociology Club are distinct in that the club holds no dances, parties, or socials. Moreover, the Sociology Club con- cerns itself with a study of man's' treatment of man. Lectures and discussions are interspersed with field trips to various charitable institutions. A quirk of sociological fate gets a mild laugh. 149 I the construction of tennis courts will be the :OR jznrxn , TENNIS CLUB 35 fi f. 5 7 President ....... .....

'A x 41' The long-range view of the club is varsity standing. At present, however, the club is han- dicapped by the lack of courts, therefore, its immediate objective is recognition as an infor- mal sport and the privilege to represent the Col- lege in intercollegiate competition. Its hopeful attitude is typical of the growing spirit of the undergraduate body. The anticipated construction of tennis courts in conjunction with the building of the new gymnasium seems to have rekindled in- terest in tennis on campus. As a result, the recently formed club spon- sors a tournament in the Spring open to all students. The favorable response indicates that stimulus needed for the increased prosperity of the club.

James Moore, '55 The Providence College Golf Club has blazed a path of divots throughout the Eastern links. But for our golfers this has proven to be the path to glory. Though it was only recently organized, the team has already won the re- spect of various colleges in New England. Its members are widely feared as being among the most formidable foes ever to be met in a college tournament. During the winter the club meets monthly, probably to practice putting on Bob Paul's par- lor rug. When they aren't playing as a team, the members sharpen .up their game in informal competition. The most notable of these informal matches took place in Georgia, when Ronnie Quinn scored 68 to beat a man from Wasli- ington, DC.

Sponsored by the Senior Class, it is an occasion for the fracturing of the myth of the dignified Senior. The featured guests of this year's event were a Hock of sheep. The sole blemish on an otherwise perfect affair was their contemptuous attitude to the proceedings. In all fairness to them, this may be ascribable to the fact that they didn't want to horn in. Eddie Zack's boys provided the musical accompaniment for that most strenuous of all indoor sports, square dancing. And speaking of squares, Frank Barone and his boys were fea- tured in the intermission hiiarities. Studied sloppiness is the theme of the Farmers 9 Festival.

The city across the border is once again represented by a pulsating delegation at the College. Recently reorganized, the new Taun- ton Club has retained all the traditional vivacity of its predecessor, while taking counsel from its mistakes. The temper of the club was evident at its Holiday Dance, held at Weir I-louse, in which the Tauntonites frolicked in an atmosphere of good cheer. The boys look the situa- tion over before investing a half-dollar. x y V Q , x A B I Nichoias Ragoza, President P.C.-Albertus Magnus Con- cert, sponsored by the Club, delights a Waterbury crowd. ,,, .T f linux u I up 4 0:11 mu: I mxlulzs A '. ijxwmllv A W if 'I lk N Q N President ....... ....

The lirst was the sponsoring of the Clee Club's joint concert with Albertus Magnus, which focused attention upon Providence College. This First undertaking assured success in the second. The Club, by personal solicitation, along with indispensable aid from the club members' mothers, contributed heavily to the Progress Fund.

Participation in a Woonsocket Club affair is considered a badge of distinction in the Northern Rhode Island area. Their activities are swarmed to by guests, invited and uninvited, who seek to participate in the gala festivities and to be seen with the elite.

' As the March winds howled on Smith l-lill, the 1954 edition of the Friar Baseball Team took wing to the sunny South, preferring to encoun- ter the physical onslaughts of service teams rather than those of the harsh New England Spring. At Norfolk, the Friars frolicked to a 13-1 victory over the Norfolk Training Station. This game produced a galaxy of stars: Gerry Rom- berg, who smashed a grand slam homer, Fred O'Neill, and Tom lVlcAleer were the brightest among them. Again the next day, the Friars sank the Sailors, this time by the smaller margin of 9-3. Howe and lVlcQueeney provided strong support for the fine pitching jobs of Buniva and Drury, who contributed Four hits apiece to the impres- sive Friar total. At Fort Eustis, the Friars were treated rather inhospitahly by a Fellow Rhode Islander .-. B A E , ,,,, L t ' i . ' f - '-Q-Q.

BA WALL as the Fort Eustis Wlieels rolled to a 7-4 win. Moore, Ryder, and Howe hit often, but not enough to inspire their teammates. The Friars hit well the following day, but very generous pitching allowed the Southerners to garner an 11-10 victory. Back in the North, the Friars engaged their traditional rival, Yale, only to lose by the slim margin of 3-2.

Fielding gems by Art Aloisio and Hank lVlcQueeney were disregarded in the general gloom of the day. Dick I-lowe and Gerry Romberg were the only Friars to connect for two hits.

Both Art Aloisio and Gerry Romherg got two hits. Bob Woods fur- nished inore grief for Hal Martin when he was injured and lost for the rest of the season.

This, gentlemen, is known as the breast strokelu bf The bonrdilzg-house reach, peculiar to Dorm students, is put to good use by Ralph Teclesco. ASKETB LL From the very start, Vin Cuddy's job was a difficult one. The team was young and rela- tively inexperienced, Captain Kenny Kerr being the only senior. That important element, height, was lacking in the squad as a whole. Further- more, the first few practice sessions revealed a defensive weakness, and for the past several years, opponents had been stopping our offense by stopping our one reliable scorer. Finally, the schedule included fourteen games in enemy ter- ritory as against only twelve at home, a definite psychological handicap. But the team showed an amazing spirit- a willingness to learn-and the old tutor began to use his magic. To make up for the deficiency in height, Vin infused a spirit of hustle into the men. I-le quickly set about tightening up the defense, and improved the Friars' rebounding. He developed a variable offense and spread the scoring assignment among several players. At the end of the six weeks of practise, the Cuddy- men looked good and their coach was optimistic. The season's opener was played against Assumption College at P.C.'s home away from home, the Mt. Pleasant Gym. The Friars racked up 83 points while holding the men from Worcester to 71. Mike Pascale led the team with 23, while Ted Tedesco and Don Moran each chipped in 17. Kerr played an excellent floor game, while John Ritch turned in some ex- cellent rebounding work. The Friars showed a tendency to be spo- radic and occasionally indecisive, but this was generally considered the result of their inexperi- ence, a condition which, it was felt, would im- prove with time. NW! Three men in disagreement with the general mood of the crowd. ever, a technical foul assessed to Pascale was enough to carry New York over the hump. They built up a five-point lead which they maintained to the end of the game. Pascale again led the Friar attack with 21 points, while Ritch and Moran contributed 13. Again in New York, Brooklyn to be exact, the Friars were meted out another defeat, this time by the St. Francis five. The Providence crew was unable to get untracked in the first half and they watched their opponents jump away to a 17-point lead. The Cuddymen re- bounded in the second half, but it was a case of too little, too late. New York became established as a defi- nitely hostile environment as Seton Hall treated their guests very ungraciously. The only glim- mer in the dark picture was the line defensive play of Frank Williams, a freshly promoted sub- stitute. Pascale and Kerr led the Friar scorers with 17 and 14 respectively. New York was a nice place . . . to get away from. The next game on the schedule was hardly to be classified as a breather. Nationally recog- nized Holy Cross is never to be taken lightly, and with the team in its present slump, Vin had good reason to Fear a debacle. The embarrass- Taking to the road, the team met and bowed to St. Anselm's by a 94-82 score in a thrilling and well-played game. The Hawks used their superior height to advantage, wearing down our rebounders. The scoring among the Friars was evenly divided as Ritch scored 18, and Pascale, Moran, and Kerr netted 16 each. The New York Athletic Club was the next team on the schedule. After jumping to a 16-15 lead in the first period, the Cuddymen experi- enced a rough second quarter and fell irretriev- ably behind. Roaring back with a vengeance, Providence whittled the lead down to two points with only two minutes left in the game.

Ken Kerr was the steadying in- fluence on the team, while Moran scored 19, and Pascale 17 to lead the scorers. Big John Ritch sprained his ankle early in the second half, but managed to score ten points before his departure. The PC. quintet could not stand pros- perity, dropping their next one to American International College, 82-70. Missing their re- bounder, Ritch, who was still out because ol' the ankle injury, the Friars stayed within striking distance but could never overhaul A.l.C.

The bathos of the season had not been reached yet. Boston College smashed P.C. in a particularly one-sided ball game. Pascale scored 20 points, but it took the entire Friar quintet to match that total in the 65-40 loss. The team picked itself up off the Hoor, and played a driving, scrambling game against Springfield to win 56-54. John Ritch climaxed the electrifying contest with a game-winning Determined to get that ball, Pat uses a rival for leverage. Putty-cake-Patty-cakef, That's it, Ken-right over his finger- tips. Mzke rs staggered by a solid swat rn the choppers. hook from the corner with two seconds remain- ing. Grady, Collamore, Hitch, and Willoughby did fine rebounding work. With the exception of Pascale, who scored 25, the Friar scoring was well divided. For a Dorm Weekend crowd, the Provi- dence boys turned in a winning effort over their arch-rivals, Brown. It was a close game and the Friars won it only by virtue of their hustle and determination to win. Kerr fouled out with XQW EIC:- X 24 three minutes remaining in the game and he was replaced by the only substitute of the eve- ning, Don Moran. It was Moran who, along with Williams, converted the foul shots which secured the victory. The victory was a team Win, Ritch, Kerr, Tedesco, and Williams all being indispensable to the cause. The winning streak was kept alive at the expense of Merrimack College- After a close first half, the Friars frolicked to a 79-56 victory. Again, the most significant thing about the vic- tory was the fact that it was a solid team per- formance. Williams continued to captivate the imagination of the gallery while Pascale was tops in scoring. In their next effort, the Cuddymen topped Fairfield University, 65-57, for their fourth straight win. Ken Kerr and Ritch had undis- puted control of the backboards, while Tedesco and Pascale took care of the offensive end. Again Coach Cuddy stuck to a winning com- bination and used only seven players in the contest. For the first time in three years, the Rhode Island Rams were able to humble the Friars on a Providence court. Falling oH5 in the quality of their play, Kerr and Co. allowed the Rams more than their share of the rebounds, mean- while, the invaders were bottling up our scorers, notably in the second half. That ended up, as far as our coverage of it is concerned, an undeniably rough season. But it is good to remember that it is a young team, and they improved discernibly as the season pro- gressed. If one factor must be singled out, it was their ability to play as a unit that was re- sponsible for the improvement. Then too, Teddy Tedesco, who had been so sensational in his sophomore year, was in a scoring slump the better part of the season and only recently began to show his old form. The newcomers, Pascale, Williams, and Ritch, needed only the seasoning of actual competition to reach a winning stride. Next year, the Friars will be playing in the new gym, and it is hoped that they will be able mi .rn ut mu L X QWVIII fl 541 Hands are joined in what is not exactly friendship I .V-.

In the New Englands, the Friars, who espe- cially wanted to win this big one, were only able to finish third. It was a severe disappointment for the weary harriers. In retrospect, Sophomore Rod Boucher was the bread-and-butter man of the squad. In every meet, he was at least the first Providence man to reach the tape.The supporting cast included the hard-working Captain, Bernie Dandley, Pete Wallaclc, Ioe Madden, Gerry Farley, Mike Mc- Donough, Dick Skalko, and Ed Nelson. The freshmen too deserve mention. Spear- headed hy Billy Hanlon, they took second in the New Englands, indicating that they will have to be reckoned with in the future.

It was expressed by Ed jere- miah, Dartmoutlfs hockey coach, at an athletic dinner sponsored by the Friars' Club in April of '55 Ed guaranteed that his former protege, Dick Rondeau, would turn out a big-time team within a few years. This was said when hockey at Providence College was but a year old. Then some of us recalled what another hockey coach, R.P.I.'s Ned Harkness, had said in reference to P.C.'s pucksters at the Coaches' Convention in Boston: I never saw a young hockey club fight so hard and courageously as those kids from Providence College. We began to wonder. The next season we watched closely, and the more we saw, the surer we were that Messrs. Ieremiah and Harkness had not been talking through their hats. Considering their lack of experience and the gargantuan-like opposition, the P.C. six turned in a very creditable per- formance. Then Father Schneider announced th-at this had been the last time hockey would be played on an informal basis at the College.

Next year, the Friars would be of Varsity status. The 1954 season finally arrived, The team had visions of fighting its way to the top bracket of New England hockey circles. The outlook was bright with the return of virtually the entire squad and the addition of Tom Army, a PC. mainstay who had returned from the service. Coach Rondeau worked his men hardg they practised every day for four weeks without a letup. He took them to Boston where they en- gaged in a preseason scrimmage with B.U. with himself. ir .

K 1. - k. , gratifying results. Dick was determined to jus- tify his former boss' confidence in him. The justification was to come sooner than anyone expected, for the season's opener proved that our skaters could handle themselves with the powerful teams in the area. The perennially powerful B.C. six really had to extend them- selves to win. The final score was 4-2, and the fourth goal was scored when Bondeau put six men on the ice in an attempt to tie the score. Praise for the Rondeaumen was found in all the Boston papers, and one sportswriter called them the finest small-college hockey team in New England. There was, however, a dismal foreboding of future difficulties in the afterglow of the vic- tory. Goalie Phil Crawford was obliged to turn away 33 shots which had infiltrated the Friar defense. We had an Achilles heel. The first victory for a Varsity P.C. hockey team came the following night as the Friars downed Tufts, 9-7. Those seven points regis- tered by Tufts were another indication of our team's defensive weakness. But it was offset by the second line of Monahan, Gorman, and Beall who scored five goals. lVlcCrink upheld the reputation of the first line with one goal and two assists. lust before the Christmas recess, the Friars were due to engage their intra-city rival, Brown. Their morale was high as they entered the con- test, and even higher when they emerged from it with a 5-2 win, an amazing upset. It was a wild and woolly first period that clinched it. Before six minutes had elapsed, Reall and Sweeney scored two goals within thirteen sec- onds of each other. Then McDonough followed up with one to make it 3-0. The Bears, after a single goal in the first period, were held score- less until 19:04 of the third, seconds before the final buzzer. Crawfords thirteen saves in the second demoralized the Bruins. The glow of this victory was snulfed out by one lVlr. Cleary, a busy little center from Harvard. His six goals alone were sufficient to humiliate the Bondeaumen, while he assisted in Come on!

Somehow, there were two Crimson goals in which he was not involved. Friar scorers were limited to three goals in the second period. When they left Boston Carden that night, the boys were a dejected group. The next game was with Tufts, and the Iunihoes aimed their attack directly at our vul- nerable heel, slipping twelve goals by our red- faced defenders. Our men reciprocated hy scor- ing heavily themselves, but their eleven points were not enough to avert a one-point reverse. The piercing pain which such a loss always inilicts upon a team was felt again by the puck- sters in their next game, played against Yale just after the Christmas recess. The Friars jumped to a first-period lead on the strength of Ed Monahan's two goals and one more contrib- uted hy McCrink and Sweeney, but from then on, only Gorman could penetrate the Yale de- fenses. Monick scored three goals, two of them unassisted, to clinch it for the men from New Haven. - . , hi at f gy .-,- ', ,. ff 'ff M tl - Y xx!--,gf 'I93 F' ' 7- 'Y T T '-- fe, ' , V 's . fl.

The same Ivy League parsimony was ex- hibited at Princeton. The Friars had nothing to show for the night's exertions save one solitary goal and injured pride. Both teams were score- less in the hard-fought first period, though our men had eleven tries at goalie Van Alstyne and four of the Tigers drew penalties in their anx- iety to win. The Tigers came roaring back in the second period with six goals, while the best the Friars could do was to avert a shutout as McDonough tallied on a pass from Army.

After an exam-engendered hiatus, the Friars journeyed to Springfield for a game with A.I.C. Before a minute had elapsed, Army had put the team out in front with an assist from McCrink. The Friars went on to score five more times, while restricting the opposition to one goal per period. The combination of McDonough, Mon- ahan, and Reall led the attack. The return engagement with the Bruins was highly embarrassing to the Friars. The vengeful Ivy Leaguers unleashed a savage attack which resulted in 10 goals. Keefe and Tutless were the foulest villains of them all, at least according to the Providence College viewpoint, scoring three goals each and assisting in two. Rod Gorman and Captain Bob Reall did their best to spark the team in a hopeless cause. Three nights later, PC. got back into the winning column at the expense of Springfield. In the middle of the first period, after Ed Tur- cotte scored, assisted by I-Iobin and Ferry, the whole team caught fire, netting three more in ace' En garde! McCrink and the goalie square of. the next three minutes. Monahan, who scored five goals and assisted in a sixth, was easily the top performer of the night. In the Friar cage for his first full game, Ed I-lornstein turned in a splendid effort. The final game of the home season saw Providence taking the ice against Norwich. The visitors, imposing on our hospitality, penetrated our defense to score two in a row. But the Friars came back fighting, and Rod Gormanls goal was followed up by Bernie McCrink's to even it off. From then on, it was Providence all the way, as the Rondeaumen racked up three more, while Norwich was able only to score once in the last period. Army, Sweeney, McCrink, Monahan, Gorman, and Reall all earned laurels for their fine playing, while I-lornstein tumed in another top performance as goalie. This victory gave the team a 6-6 record for the season against some of the strongest opposi- tion in the East. Two of these defeats were by a single point, and could easily have gone the other way. The Friars scored heavily in all but one game, and as the season were on, the de- fense showed a continual improvement. The M, 1 1 ' A' '- ..

RIFLE TEA The Providence College Varsity Rifle Team, coached by the very capable Sgt. Oliver V. Allen, once again finished a truly line season. Although the team originated but four years ago with the coming of the R.O.T.C. to Providence College, they have alreadfy slzyrocketed to na- tional prominence. The first year saw a disor- ganized group of aspiring marlcsmen beaten in every encounter. The following two seasons they lloundered about, losing some, winning others. Witli the dawn of last season, however, they began blasting former antagonists such as Brown. Harvard, Boston College, and Yale. Regular practice, new equipment, and new talent were mainly responsible for this vast improvement. The incentive of a brand-new home in the Gym- nasium should prove to be quite a determining Factor in the performance of next year's team. .. z ' if ' , S X A , x ri' -- E - i v .7 'hd - l , tv , .
