TH E SPIRIT OF ST. PETER ’S It is our pride and our glory, Old in song and in story, And we cherish your name, And we love your fair fame, For the days of long ago; And we, your sons, will be loyal To St. Peter’s so royal.

May your banner still guide us Where-ever we go.

It is a story of gladness, W ith no shadow of sadness, Our years spent with you, St. Peter’s so true; And you hold our heart’s love yet.

And through life’s years we will treasure, W ith joy beyond measure, The gifts you have given— W e can never forget.

WILLIAM F. X. GRANT, A. B., A.M .

N the early part of the first semester, the student body of St. Peter’s was amazed and grieved to learn that a certain professor, Mr. William Grant, was about to leave the Prep after a stay of many years. This professor was one of the best-liked tutors that ever strove to impart the intricacies of mathematics or explain the idioms of Spanish to a class of Prepsters.

3e will be especially remembered by those sections of the outgoing Senior class who were under his jurisdiction for three years, but it will be a long time hence before he is forgotten by any of the class. Therefore the Cephean, on the part of the school at large, expresses its sincere wish for his unbounded success in his new position at Harrison High School. They are fortunate indeed in obtaining the services of such a man.

IN MEMORIAM

REV. EDW ARD S. BROCK, S. J. D IED FEBRU A RY 11, 1928 ARLY in February we were saddened by the news of the death of this anointed Son of God. Deep was our sorrow at the loss of one so devoted to St. Peter’s, yet it was tempered by the knowledge that God had called him to a better land, and considered him worthy of Heaven.

His life was apostolic; his every thought and desire was to spread the Master’s kingdom, and how well he suc­ ceeded may be known by the large number that were led to Christ through his efforts. We know we shall miss him— his sunny smile and hearty welcome, his pleasant laugh and comforting words, his little talks about the Little Flower—• all these and more. W ith his relatives who still feel so poignantly his loss we sincerely sympathize, but with them we rejoice that he has gone to the arms of an all-loving Father, where his reward will be exceedingly great.

June 5, 1948.

Dear John: I am writing to notify you that the Commencement exercises will be held in the Stanley Theatre on the fourteenth. Father John McCarthy, S. J., the new prefect of studies at the Prep, obtained the use of it through the manager, John W ard. He is willing to sacrifice such a stellar attraction as Jack O ’Brien, appear­ ing there all this week, for the interests of the Alma Mater. Another classmate, Frank Dunn, is the master of ceremonies.

I was down to see the Jerseys play on Sunday. Dick O ’Brien, the doctor, got some complimentary tickets from their manager, Joe Sullivan, and then he invited me. The boys have a fine team now with Ben Conroy and Frank Coyle on the roster, but they lost a dandy player when they sold Dick King to the Giants.

Quite a few of the old crowd have gone into the newspaper line. Charley Fredericks is one of the editors of the Observer, while Ray W est has a daily column on the sporting page of the Dispatch. Willie Hawkes is the official car­ toonist for the Journal, and Ed Neary’s poems are a frequent feature of that sheet. I heard Ray W est remark that they are preparing a rousing welcome in Paterson for Joe O ’Connor, the National Singles Champion, although he lives in Passaic. Ned Fanning and Tom Sloane are heading the reception committee.

He also expressed the belief that H arry Cronan will clean up in his event in the Olympic games. The contestants, by the way, are going to sail in the Centaur, the newest ship of the Nestor-Taylor line.

Horse Kealy was down in Washington, but he didn’t have time to see you. although he paid a visit to Senator Dates. He was sent out to represent the Hibernians. He said he heard Jazz McKenna’s orchestra at the Hotel Roosevelt, and afterwards went to see Paul Reilly’s latest picture, “The Destiny of Men.” John Hassey, the court clerk of Paterson, was in Wednesday to see me. He was here on business with Judge Mark Sullivan, but I don’t think they transacted much business, outside 'of discussing John Milton’s new book.

I had dinner on Friday with Steve Ferko, the artist, at Barney Majewski’s Lunch Emporium. Barney has changed much in the past twenty years, and he has a steady patronage of old classmates. Mike Basile, the contractor, Jack Lynch, the florist, John Ficker, the engineer, and Umpire Tom Finn of the National League, are in three or four times a week. Joe Vuocolo, the barber, is another fellow lucky enough to meet the fellows once in a while.

A fter dinner we went to see a revival of “Hamlet,” with Jim Hagen and Vince Minan in the leading roles. In the boxes were Bill Glaser, president of the First National Bank of Guttenberg, Doctors Londrigan, Keegan and Hennessy, City Commissioner Egan, Bill O ’Neill of the income tax department, Nick W arnock, the Mayor of Bayonne, Nalie Whipple, the laugh-getter of the “Slow Boat,” Jim Stone, the versatile dancer of the same show, and Georgie W itt, the lightweight champion. A fter the show the talk veered around to football and we decided unanimously that the Jersey Pros, would have a whirlwind team with Skeuse, Phillips, Mosca, Boyle and Brickman in the lineup. Dyke Van Stone and Leavey have signed with the New York Yankees, and will prove a valuable acquisition to their fold.

Well, I guess I’ll have to close now. Ray Spatz just came in to tell me that I am due at a meeting of the Associated Press. Hoping that.I see you on the fourteenth, I remain, Your sincere friend and classmate, M AURICE O ’SULLIVAN.

E V E R did a more pleasant autumnal sun beam down on St. Peter’s than on that memorable morning of nineteen hundred and twenty-four, when the call to higher education summoned the usual motley throng of fresh­ men to her revered portals of learning. They flocked from everywhere, a disunited whole, but when they had crossed the threshold to this new phase of life, they became molded into a unified pulsating body, imbued with the true spirit of the Prep.

The first month was one of adjustment, of becoming accustomed to the newness and strangeness of it all. But this period passed swiftly, and, under the able influence of the Jesuits, they settled down to the exigencies of high school life and to recover from their former superficial awe of the higher classmen. A week, and then a month passed, and in this period was seen the inauguration of football, which sport received the whole-hearted support of these newcomers who dreamed of the day when they, too, would unite on the gridiron to physically repel their rivals.

It was in the annual retreat that the freshmen first came in contact with the inner side of their school, wherein they saw the true value of its benign influence over their impressionable, creative young minds. On the crest of a newly aroused determination to aspire to nobler things, they swept onward, vigorously and suc­ cessfully, and the Christmas season, with its resultant holidays, saw the high tide of their aspirations. This short relaxation enabled them to prepare for the un­ known terrors of the mid-year examinations, and in the following weeks many a weary hour was spent in “boning.” When the examinations had been successfully passed, they plucked up their hearts again for the second semester. The basketball season flitted by, and with the Easter vacation came spring. Baseball now used up the surplus energy of the newcomers, and this sport overcame any signs of lethargy that arose. The newcomers had found their stride!

The annual outing to Indian Point found a warm reception in the freshman class, and bolstered by this day of recreation, they returned to gain new laurels in the provincial exams. The oratorical contest for the Junior section, and the Com­

mencement exercises also won their whole-hearted support, and the heart of each small Frosh beat quickly as they visualized the day when they would take their place upon the stage.

W hen school reconvened in September they were quite ready to assume the title of “Sophs”, and found it quite to their liking to disclose the fact that they had already spent a year within the walls of the Prep. The division of the class into Greek and Science sections was the first foreboding of the parting of the ways that would come at the end of their Senior year. But football put aside all melan­ choly thoughts, and again they proved their spirit in the cheering sections, with a few fortunate members of the class taking part in the fray. They emerged with fresh resolutions from the retreat, but welcomed the approach of the holidays.

Then the examinations engrossed their attention, and afterwards they renewed their struggle with Caesar, but did not fail to tender their moral support to the basketball and baseball warriors. The outing, the provincials and the end of the semester were all met with the cynicism that Sophomores should show.

Now they enter their third year. It finds them in the newly acquired building.

The close association with the Senior class does much to mature them, and to broaden their knowledge. But they could not fail to view with joy the successes that had carried them thus far. More diligently than ever did they attend to the orations of Cicero, and the theorems of geometry. The study of a modern language brought no trepidation to their hearts, for their confidence in themselves was unbounded. Their part in athletics was now an important one, and football flourished with their physical prowess added to the team. Basketball, too, at­ tained great momentum, and dramatics and debating grew under their fruitful touch. Such participation became especially prominent during the baseball season and the entire year was a glad forecast of what the coming Seniors could and would do. The year came to a close without a single mishap in their line of success.

And now the cast of the picture we have painted for you has materialized into ourselves. Seniors at last, but how different from what we expected! Intermingled with the joy of attainment was the sadness of the parting so near at hand. We have taken our part on the gridiron, and have turned out a championship team.

W e have presented a Shakespearian play, and presented it well. Debates have been engaged in and successfully ended. On the court we have also had a successful team. The baseball prospects are magnificent. Never has the Old Maroon seen such a glorious year of victories on field and stage. But the stage is set and we must prepare to depart. W e hesitate, looking back, while something tugs at our hearts and a lump rises in our throats. But we must go, and although we leave her hallowed walls, the memories of our years at St. Peter’s will ever linger with us.

UCCESS is ours. W e wear the laurel wreath proudly, and justly. The crisis has come and passed. Behind is trepidation, yearning and honest effort. Ahead is Ilion, the fruit of victory, the reward of to.l.

Gaudeamus!

Of genius we cannot boast. Of achievement, we can point wiih pardonable pride. Of a class of fifteen, over half have been heard from on the athletic field. Among those worthy of note that made the Prep football team were: Captain “Ben” Conroy, “Mel” Hicks, Jim Leavey, Charlie Mosca, “Dyke” Van Stone, Tom Prout and Frank Peters.

O ur class president, John Gavin, achieved the distinction of being elected the Senior President, and the honor of entering W est Point in July.

The class wishes to extend its sincere gratitude to the professors for their untiring efforts in their behalf.

EN IO R S at last! Thus did we greet each other as September opened our final year. But as the months rolled on, a certain sadness at parting arose, and now as June appears, we view it with sinking hearts and unsmiling countenances.

However, it is with pride that the class of 4B-1 can look back upon its accomplishments in Senior year.

In the dramatic presentation, Tom Nestor, Charles Fredericks, John Milton and Maurice O ’Sullivan were our representatives, while James Egan and Ogden Dates upheld our honor in the public debates.

Maurice O ’Sullivan as Editor, Charles Fredericks, James Cassidy,John W arnock, and Ogden Dates were material in the success of the Cephean, while the same men assisted in the production of the Petrean.

On the library staff could be found Tom NestOr, James Stone, John McCarthy, Doug Taylor and Maurice O ’Sullivan.

So it is that with fond memories of the Prep and unpayable gratitude to the faculty we leave with a firm desire to uphold the honor of St. Peter’s.

\T H E R ye around and listen to a tale of work well done. Every scholastic activity is inscribed with names from the roster of 4B-2. • Our athletes, Dick King, Ray West, and Frank Coyle, brought glory to our class. Debating was the hobby of Joe Sullivan, M ark Sullivan and W alter Glaser. Dramatics found able thespians in Frank Coyle, Lawrence Whipple, Joe Sullivan and Vince Minan. Daily one could find Joe Sullivan, Ray W est and W alter Glaser typing out their bit for our publications.

If midnight did not catch us poring over our Homers and Virgils, it would per­ ceive us thumbing our Spanish or English classics. Honor men in great numbers paraded to the stage monthly for the reward of grinds and pluggers.

So now, St. Peter’s, with a glorious record behind us we go forth to em­ blazon your name in every pursuit with the same zeal and energy which marked our work with you.

U R career at St. Peter’s is ended. No longer may we be numbered among the students of the Prep, for we now assume the roles of Alumni. W ith hearts that are tinged with sorrow, but with hopes raised high, we pass out of the sacred portals of our beloved Alma Mater and face the world.

O ur regret on leaving is too real for words, but fortified with the training which we have received, we go forth undaunted and confident that we shall bring only greater honor and glory to old St. Peter’s.

The class of 4B-3, aside from being learned scientists, is represented in every branch of school work. Bazz Boyle, Bill O ’Neill, Jerry MeAteer and Joe Kealy were on the football squad. In basketball Boyle captained the Prep, while O ’Neill and McAteer were on the squad.

In the field of literature, W ard, Butler and Heide were on the Petrean staff, and Whelan, Butler, O ’Neill and W ard aided in the production of the Cephean.

Farewell, St. Peter’s, may the pleasant memories of the years spent with you remain always with us, and may they be an incentive to spur us on to great deeds.

IT H the final dignity of Seniors, our class has come to the end of its, four years of friendships and pleasant associations, begun so awkwardly four years ago. W e have been as true to St. Peter’s as we have been to one another, and we leave with no misgivings in regard to the lasting quality of the friendships.

Versatility was the keynote of our class. Our athletes, “Ed” Skeuse, the Prep football captain; Tom Norton, Hal Bayerl, Bob O ’Neill, H arry Cronan and Frank Mulquin, graced well the fields of sport. The testimonial snatchers were: John Ficker, John Lynch, Tom Finn and Joe Toomey, who, more than once, carried our banner to the fore. Bob O ’Neill enjoyed the managership of the greatest eleven that St. Peter’s ever sported. James Hagan and John Lynch made their marks as thespians in the school play, the “Comedy of Errors.”

A vote taken showed that Villanova, Holy Cross and Fordham will receive most of us while the others will matriculate at Georgetown.

O T as an idle boast but with a sense of pleasure and gratification we can honestly say that we have accomplished a great deal during the past term. We are represented on the Prep baseball team by Captain Bill Coleman, Danny Lee, H arry Donohue, Baron McLees and Jack Casey.

On the gridiron by Bill Coleman and Ed Gordan. McGeady was the Assistant Manager of the Prep eleven, “Skippy” McLaughlin and Bill Coleman threw them in on the court.

Schwartz is numbered among the intellectuals while Hannon, Maher and Mulqueen contributed their efforts to the school play, the “Comedy of Errors.” We have confidence in our class basketball team. Lee, Growbowski, Casey, McGeady and McMahon will probably form the first team.

We earnestly thank our teachers for their zealous efforts in our behalf and their labor has not been in vain.

N September, 1927, we entered the portals of the Science Hall. Thus we realized our dreams and we .are now Juniors. The class of 3B-1 has successfully sailed the turbulent seas of High School for three years and now we look forward to the drawing of the curtain upon our careers as Prepsters. Although we cannot boast of any athletic heroes this year, the future holds many prospects. Members of the class are very active in the Beaudevin Debating Society, Sodality and the Petrean Staff. The spirit of the class was clearly manifested when shortly after the opening of the term, a private en足 tertainment was held. The plans for final celebration at the end of the scholastic year have not been completed. W e, now, take this opportunity to express our sin足 cere thanks to our professors who extended their every effort to the furthering of our knowledge and to wish success to the graduates of 1928.

O N T IN U IN G our voyage on the sea of High School, we have passed the midway mark and are now nearing our goal. Our destination, “Gradua­ tion”—the port of success, is but a year away. W e had a mid-season ban­ quet in the Science Hall which was a great success. The speeches, witty remarks and short sketches were well rendered. This occasion will long stay green in our memories.

It is customary for us to have a class outing at the end of each year. Now with the class treasury increasing each week, we hope to make this year’s outing the greatest we have had. Bernard Mooney and Hugh Muirhead represent the class.in Prep athletics, both being Assistant Managers.

The class offers its sympathy to John Flaherty on the death of his father.

F T E R a lengthy summer vacation, we turned our minds again toward our school year at St. Peter’s, and to our amazement, we found that some of our old classmates had gone astray, while others had joined us. Our choice being science, we must admit that under the guidance of Father Smith, nothing can ward off success in this line.

On the football team we were represented by “Eunie” Mann and Vince Bro­ derick. A fter a successful season, Mann was elected captain of next year’s team.

W e are not represented on the court squad, but when the baseball lists are posted we will have Mann bearing the banner of 3B-3.

W e take this opportunity to attempt to express our inestimable gratitude to our professors, and to wish the outgoing Seniors the best of luck in the battle of Life.

H E N the term opened in September, the class of 3B-4 proceeded to take up its residence in Science Hall. The first term passed with exceeding rapidity, and when the examinations arrived we were well prepared for them. It was for this reason that they did not detract from our number.

W e can point with pride to the fact that quite a few of the gridiron gladiators of Coach Myers are listed in our number. They are Roth, Van Stone, Brickman and Grant, and their combined efforts were instrumental in making the record that St. Peter’s boasts of.

George Schwab and Howard Molteni acquitted themselves nobly during the intermission of the school presentation in dramatic circles, “The Comedy of Errors.”

And now, when we approach the end of our third year at the Prep, we look back with no regrets for our past records and await the call to the Senior class with anxious hearts. And meanwhile, we take this time to thank the members of the faculty for their earnest efforts in our behalf. x \, .

H E history of the present class of 3A has progressed along well-ordered and staid lines, up to the present; but now having entered the Junior Year, we find that owing to the fact that we have a different teacher for each subject, we possess a pleasurably varied schedule by which no more than two days follow the same order of time. It may be observed, that in our body, there is much potential as well as material power. O ur best repre­ sentation is, as might be expected, in a group where brawn is a predominant factor, on the, gridiron. In argumentation and oratory, as in other things, Mr. Connolly shows remarkable adaptability, which is in part, perhaps, owing to the fact that there is no cause which will not find a sponsor in him, and that “e’en though van­ quished he could still argue.” We extend our gratitude to our professors.

E have reached our Sophomore Year. Since the early days of September we have been travelling through Gaul with Caesar and just finished a re­ treat with the ten thousand Greeks. Only' one of our number was lost in the battles with the legions of Caesar. -We have passed the half-way mark and are working and preparing for the final dash across the finish line. Although they did not win any championships, our basketball team did fairly well. * We extend our heartiest congratulations to the class of ’28 and wish them success in their future life.

In conclusion we hope that we shall all meet again next year as Juniors.

V EN TS comical and tragic Have marked our second year at the Prep.

A diary of our daily assemblies would read as the gleanings of all the interesting incidents of a small world. W it, wisdom and work, all crowded each day and for every thorn of sorrow we recompensed our­ selves with a rose of joy, and a little more. So with the term’s end ap­ proaching we find the scales heavily balanced on the side marked “Good Times.”

Study, the bug-a-boo of this generation, has for us no terrors and it won’t be long now before we are models of erudition and sophistication. Our final duty we perform with pleasure in wishing the 1928 Seniors “Godspeed and Success.”

Our class is one of the Freshman classes of last year that took Science in preference to Greek and as yet no one has i====== shown signs of regret for his choice. The class organized a basketball team and played four games. Having won two and lost two we enter the Inter足 class Tournament feeling our experience will carry us to victory. W e take this opportunity to extend to our teachers our sincere thanks for their earnest en足 deavors to ferry us over the sea of knowledge.

N a fine September morning, sailing on the ship of “Life”, we anchored in the port of “Second Year”. Our hearts beat furiously, and we held our heads high as we stepped on the dock as Sophomores.

W e were handed over to Mr. McInerney for guidance through the wars of Caesar and the mysteries of English poetry. He instructed us most ably in the curiosities of Biology, and after a lengthy, struggle we succeeded in mastering the details of American history. Mr. Fisher led us through the labyrinths of algebra, and completed his assignment very' creditably.

W ith this abundance of knowledge we battled the tests of the year, and now we are sailing merrily to the port of Provincial Exams. And we take this time to express our immeasurable gratitude to Messrs. McInerney and Fisher for the great assistance they have given us during the year.

U R debut into the Sophomore Year has been thus far, pleasing and suc­ cessful. W e find that Science in itself is interesting and simple and with Mr. McNally, the explanations can easily be mastered. Joe Orrick is the only football player we can boast of. John “Lefty” Donnelly represented the class on the Prep basketball team and played in a great number of games. Our own class team did well in the Interclass League but was finally eliminated by 2B-2. Jerry Morano represented us in the school orchestra. Jerry is quite a player and a great future is in store for him. We wish to thank our professors and to tell them that their untiring efforts have not been for naught.

N the twelfth day of September, with the gentle breezes of summer still blowing, one might have seen the present class of IB-1 waiting at the portals of St. Peter’s to be assigned to their first classroom at the Prep.

A fter the usual excitement had. disappeared, we entered the Junior Build­ ing, thirty-five in number. W ith the competent teachers we were en­ trusted to, we set out on the “Sea of Hope” with full intentions of reaching the port “Success” without any mishap.

Although our basketball team did not fare so well, we have expectations of a championship baseball team. We also have a representative on the Varsity base­ ball squad in the form of Richard Beards.

We wish to sincerely thank our teachers for their untiring labors in our interests, and we assure them that, in our minds, their efforts will always be re­ membered and appreciated. W e likewise take this occasion to express our gratitude to the officers who were most able representatives of our class.

N September we entered St. Peter’s to fight our way to the top, year by year, and finally to achieve the honor of being Alumni of the Prep. W ith this exalted end in view we entered whole-heartedly into the spirit of the school. A fter the first few days' during which we did our best to learn each other’s names and become generally acquainted with the class, we found the road much easier than we expected it would be.

Under the tutelage of the competent professors assigned to our division, we delved into the mysteries of Latin, Algebra, Ancient History and the English Classics. Our record in the mid-term examinations proved that the efforts of our. teachers were not spent in vain.

Broadbent represented the class of IB-2 in the school presentation in dra­ matic circles. The audience can ably testify to his ability as a Thespian.

W e take this space to express our sincere thanks to our tutors for their labors in our behalf.

O W that June is rapidly approaching, and our first year at St. Peter’s is drawing to a close, we, the class of IB-3, can most assuredly say that we have experienced a very successful year. W e entered the portals of the Prep with the intention of gaining honors both in athletics and in studies, and although our efforts in the first branch of school work were not crowned with extraordinary success, we point with pride to our record in the latter branch.

Our president, Charles Milton, carried the banner of IB-3 in the “Comedy of Errors,” presented by the student body at a New York theatre.

W e here take time to attempt to express to our able professors a small part of the gratitude that we feel is due to them, and to wish to the outgoing Senior Class, the best of luck.

Myles Lyons is the Editor-in-chief and his associates a re : Messrs. Healy, Gannon, Urbanowicz, Lynch, and McCullough. Our class basketball team, garnered the Prep Freshman crown under, the leadership of Joe Corliss who hails all the way from W est New York, where, Joe says, men are men.

N September last, the new Freshmen of St. Peter’s assembled to be given their respective classrooms. The thirty boys assigned to IB-5 soon were like old friends, as everyone was eager to become acquainted. The camaraderie that developed has brought us into such close contact with each other that we are now loathing the fact that we may be separated in the years to come.

Although not represented in any of the extra-curriculum activities at the Prep this year, the class basketball team showed good form in defeating 1A. But the second game resulted disastrously, and we bowed to IB -4.

Francis Fitzpatrick represented the class in the school play, and his per­ formance was very creditable.

We take this space to express our sincere thanks to our tutors, and to assure them that their efforts in our behalf are not in vain.

ARLY on a bright morning in February, eagerly assembled for the first time, we were soon grouped together and began our year’s work. Under the tutelage of capable professors we started to fashion our lives along true Petrean lines. The prime issue at the present is the formation of a class baseball team. W e have hope of a “crackerjack” team. Practice is our motto from now on.

Our contribution to the Prep baseball squad is our President, John Conroy, who is a capable backstop.

The class wishes to extend their thanks to their professors for their whole­ hearted interest in them.

TH E PETREAN >'capH.|: H E PE T R E A N of this year was maintained at its usual degree of lit§|5T|8 erary achievement. The stories, the poems, the essays, all coordinated in rallfra making it interesting and worth perusal by the literarily inclined, while the diverse news features, sports accounts and the like made it doubly attractive to the Prepster.

W e hope, however, that in the near future we may see a more representative collection of contributors. Every class should have within its members at least a few desirous of appearing in print. There should be a super-abundance, rather than a scarcity of material for publication.

The school owes a debt of gratitude to the Moderator, Mr. John A. O ’Brien, S. J., for the high standard to which he has raised both the Petrean and Cephean.

H E three Sodalities of Our Lady now existing in the school have thrived during the past year. The numbers have increased, and the attendance has been remarkably large when you consider the difficulties presented to the student who wishes to make this sacrifice. In regard to religious matters St. Peter’s can well boast of its superiority to the general run of Catholic schools, and the attendance at Sodality is a thermometer by which the feelings of the student body can be gauged.

The various divisions held their first meeting soon after the school opened.

The Student Counsellor, Father Aloysius Travers, S. J., although having super­ vision of the entire school in such matters, assigned himself particularly to the Senior Sodality. This meets on Wednesday mornings.

The Intermediate Sodality is composed of Second Year students and meets on Tuesday mornings under the jurisdiction of Mr. John J. O ’Connor, S. J., It is well attended by all the Sophomore class.

The Freshman Sodality has increased in numbers this year over last year.

The sections of first year vie with each other in having a large delegation present and, with the spirit shown at the meetings, it would not be surprising to see this institution among the foremost in the school. Mr. J. B. Connors, S. J., ably con­ ducted this branch.

SENIOR COUNCIL U E to the graduation of John Gavin in February, the class of ’28 was left without a senior president. However, this was not for long, for by manifesting that unity and cooperation which has become traditional at St. Peter’s, they decided to select a group of seniors to transact all busi­ ness concerning the senior class.

This is a decided improvement over the former method of electing a senior president, for with a student council conducting the affairs of the senior year, there can be no accusation of favoritism for every class of the fourth year is represented. Heretofore, the action taken by the senior president might not be agreeable to all concerned but the senior council eradicates this, for when any discussion arises, the representatives cf each class bring forward the ideas of their section and the different views on the matter are then compared.

The council is composed of ten seniors, five of whom are selected from the Greek section and five from the Science section. The representatives of the Greek section are: Joseph Sullivan, Lawrence Whipple, Richard King, Joseph Conway and Ogden Dates, while John W ard, William O ’Neill, Thomas Whelan, Frank Mulquin and John Lynch constitute the Science delegation to the council.

i I TH E BEAUDEVIN DEBATING SOCIETY

11 j I ijj

iIa#!! ;|

H E members who constituted the Beaudevin Debating Society, this year, have surely no cause to hang their heads in shame. The Senior Debating Society, guided by Mr. John O’Connor, S. J., has surely proved that real oratory is still very much alive at the Prep, and has added to the already numerous laurels gained by the societies of previous years.

Speaking of inter-scholastic debates, thus far we can say, with regard to two of them that “We have met the enemy and they are ours.” On January seventh, the Fordham team, defending the affirmative, fell before the onslaught of St. Peter’s, on the question of the cancellation of inter-allied war debts. On this occasion, Messrs. Jos. Sullivan, John Lynch and James Egan represented the Prep.

Our second victory was gained on March thirtieth, when St. Peters of Jersey City defeated St. Peter’s of New Brunswick on the question of capital punishment.

Messrs. John Lynch, and James Egan again put forth their best, and were aided

by R. Ogden Dates.

W e regret however, to record one defeat. Messrs. Lynch, Egan and Dates went to Georgetown Prep and there lost a hard-fought battle on the Boulder

Dam question. But since the decision of the judges was not unanimous, our de­ feat was not so bitter.

Early in the season our Moderator began an innovation. Several teams were sent out to appear before the various Holy Name Societies and Knights of Co­ lumbus Clubs to debate on different topics of the day. This plan of Mr. O ’Connor has engendered more enthusiasm within the debating society than has been seen in many a year, and has been productive of great interest. Everywhere the debaters appeared, the audiences were favorably impressed. Capital punishment, the regime of Mussolini, and prohibition, have been some of the subjects thus debated, and besides helping to make the public conversant to some degree with the problems of the day, they have proved a profitable source from which students might gain experience in public speaking.

Mr. John Lynch, who has so often represented St. Peter’s in debates, was chosen to champion the school in the Times oratorical contest.

MULRY DEBATING SOCIETY

m M iVJ

I(til IHrJI ---

H E scholastic season, now nearing its close, has witnessed a wonderful development in our junior debating society. This year, under the able guidance of Mr. Porter, S. J., the movement has taken on a new impetus and our progress has been admirable.

At the beginning of the first semester we elected the several officers necessary to conduct the affairs of the society, and thereafter met every second Monday in Science Hall. At every meeting an interesting debate was held, and after each of these, an open discussion from the floor followed. A few of the subjects debated were: “Trans-Atlantic Flying”, “Philippine Independence”, “Election of Governor in the Presidential Year”, “Capital Punishment”, and the “Canal Appropriation Bill.”

Just to prove that we are serious about the debating question, following the distribution of honors for the month of March, four of our chosen orators debated the question, “Resolved; That a Presidential Third Term Be Prohibited

By Law,” before the entire student body. The affirmative was upheld by William Rider and Harold Ruvolt, the negative by William Dobbins and John Smith.

A fter an exciting discussion the decision was awarded to the negative.

Two weeks' later, our representatives met the Junior debaters of Regis High School in a spirited debate on the same question. So close was the contest that a ten-minute period was required to. make the decision. The victory was final iy awarded to Regis. The honor of being the best speaker of the day, however, was awarded to John Smith. The members of the society have been amply rewarded for their efforts to make the Junior Debating Society a success during the present year, and are now looking forward confidently to upholding the prestige of the Senior Society in the future.

TH E LIBRARY AN in his never ending quest for truth is wont to delve into the works of great authors of antiquity, whose writing mirror their lives. The lives of ancient and medieval authors reveal the way by which we can follow their footsteps. The lives and works of these ancient authors can be found in the Students’ Library situated in the W arren St. building. It is a quiet retreat for those who would spend their leisure hours in peaceful association with the sublime writers. In perusing the rare volumes we shall see that here also are found the works of modern narrators who have learned from the classics of their predecessors. Not only are novels found, but also non-fictional contributions, essays, formal and informal, and light sketches, while oratory takes a prominent part in the selections.

168

On the first floor is the reading room, adorned with class .banners and pic­ tures. Here also repose the trophies captured by the Prep teams. On the second floor the students have access to all reference materials, including the best encyclopediae, histories, biographies and dictionaries. On this floor also is the Circulat­ ing department where all the clerical work of the Library is done. Here are the offices of the Moderator and the Head Librarian.

The fiction department, on the third floor, is composed of mystery and sport stories, which are to the liking of the younger boys.

Mr. Connors, S. J., the Moderator, has supervised this branch of the school’s activities for three successive years and has done all in his power to make the Library more cheerful and attractive.

The work in the Library is a most important and interesting duty, per­ formed by an able and efficient corps of students under Vincent Minan, the Head Librarian, who has made the library his chief interest for the past three years.

The staff includes: James Stone, Maurice O ’Sullivan, John McCarthy, John Mahon, Harold McGann, Thomas Nestor, Douglas Taylor and Charles McCabe.

COACH TH O M A S M YERS

A WORD OF WELCOME

H E Prep Athletic Teams were in need of a coach at the start of Septem­ ber, due to the resignation of former Coach Hugh Doherty, during the summer. A man was needed who could turn out championship teams with the same regularity as had Mr. Doherty. Thomas Myers of Fordham, ’24, was the man chosen to continue bringing championships to the Prep. He was picked as an All-Eastern halfback in 1923, the year he captained the championship Fordham team. Other years found him either leading the Eastern gridiron luminaries or else heading the list of All-American selections.

Football was not his only mainstay, however, for he played at forward for two years on the Fordham basketball team and he was an outfielder on the base­ ball team. A fter graduation Mr. Myers consented to coach the Fordham Freshman team in football and made such a fine showing that his services immediately were sought for by the leading Prep schools of the Metropolitan district. St. Peter’s was the lucky school if the teams he has produced are to be taken as a criterion of his work.

The thorough rout of Dickinson in football was a surprise to everyone except the members of the team who had complete confidence in their coach. We are sincerely grateful to Mr. Myers for his work in our behalf and we hope his suc­ cess this year will inspire him to greater heights in the years that are to come. Ad multos annos!

ATHLETICS

FOOTBALL SQUAD 1927

FOOTBALL '!==^= LARGE squad of veterans answered the call of Coach “Tommy” Myers who succeeded “Hughie” Doherty as Head Coach at St. Peter’s. The cool days of September found the team that was to bring the Catholic Prep State Title to St. Peter’s running through their signals with a vim ______ and vigor that boded ill to coming opponents.

Charley Mosca started the ball rolling by scoring a well-earned touchdown that beat Curtis High of Staten Island. Next the Prep avenged last year’s setback

by Seton Hall with an 8-0 defeat. This game saw the team started on their way to the Catholic Prep title. Hard luck overtook the team in the next game. Union Hill High snatched the hardest fought game of the season from us in the last quarter by making use of the “breaks” when they came to them. The result of the afternoon was a 13-12 loss for St. Peter’s. The refereeing in this game was not all that could be desired, however, and so St. Peter’s went down to defeat with many doubts in the minds of the spectators as to who was the real victor. Bill O ’Neill, the Prep quarterback ran the team splendidly but unfortunately received a painful injury and the Prep was left without a dependable field general. The next game found Saul Phillips at the helm and he ran the team to a one-sided victory against Asbury High, the score being 24-0.

the previous year when they defeated the Prep for the first time in the history of the institutions. The score that gladdened the eyes of the Prep rooters was 30-0.

The Petreans next made doubly sure of the Catholic title by taking St. CeciLa’s into camp to the tune of 13-0.

Then followed the big game of the year with Dickinson. Tommy Myers put a wonder team out on the field that Saturday after Thanksgiving . The team proved that it was the greatest team ever to. represent St. Peter’s by thoroughly vanquishing Dickinson, 42-7. “Euney” Mann, “Mel” Hicks, “Moe” Leavey, “Sol” Phillips, Ed Skeuse and Dick King scored a touchdown each and “Bazz” Boyle scored a safety, Charley Brickman, the All-County tackle, drop-kicked four extra points after touchdown, bringing the total to 42. This game was a brilliant climax in a most successful season.

The 1927 football season is over and is now just a memory. “Eunie” Mann, who was out most of the present season with a broken hand, has been chosen to captain the team for the coming year. Best of success, “Eunie” old m an! Great credit is due to our coach, Mr. Myers, who turned out such a wonderful team in his first year at the helm of the Prep.

A large crowd of underclassmen tried out for the team and the more promising were carried along with the squad as most of the regulars leave St. Peter’s this year through graduation.

The schedule, as drawn up by Manager Frank Coyle, included some of the strongest teams in Greater New York and the Metropolitan district. Such teams as the powerful St. John’s of Brooklyn and Regis High of New York were to be encountered along with the leading teams of the county. The team enjoyed the wholehearted support of the school but they got off to a bad start, losing to Regis High, 21-20, in the first game. However, they soon found their stride, beating the Roseville A. C, of Newark, 27-17.

PREP’S QUINTET

m H[v il

Bill O ’Neill, who suffered a severe injury during the football season, joined the team in mid-season and materially strengthened the offensive attack. The Prep conquered in quick succession, Paterson Prep, St. Cecilia’s, Lincoln High, Seton Hall Prep, Don Bosco Prep, St. John’s, Concordia Prep, Fordham Prep and St. Michael’s of Union City. The games lost were those to Regis High, St. John’s, Lincoln High, Seton Hall Prep, Union Hill High and Demarest High. A thrilling game was played at W est New York that resulted in a tie, 35-35, after three extra periods of fierce battling. The play-off game the Prep lost after a hard-fought battle.

The big game of the year with Dickinson was a great victory for the Prep who emerged from the game at the long end of a 17-15 score. Dick King and Eddie Skeuse, the Petrean guards, whose guarding was a feature of the game, held the vaunted Dickinson forwards in check while “Moe” Leavey, “Bazz” Boyle and Billy O’Neill ran up the score.

Much depended on this game and no doubt the thought of the City Cham­ pionship spurred on the Prep dribblers to vanquish the last obstacle in their path.

The team was not entered in the State Tournament and so must needs be content with the City Championship. It would be difficult to pick out any indiBJ hSi t j 178

vidual stars of the season as the team-work of the Prep squad was one of its dis­ tinguishing features. Dick King and Jim Leavey were chosen for the All-County while Bill O ’Neill, Ed Skeuse and “Bazz” Boyle all received honorable mention.

The last echoes of the cheers are silent now and we feel that we have just cause to be proud of the team. None of the regulars of this year’s team will return next year so it will be a hard task to fill the shoes of those rugged and persistent workers. Their splendid work will not be forgotten.

BASEBALL SQUAD

BASEBALL IN CE Athletic Championships seem to be the vogue at St. Peter’s this year we now look to the hopeful proteges of Coach Myers for still an­ other championship, this time in baseball. Already we have impressed Qrj upon you the fact that our football team, acclaimed the greatest in the annals of St. Peter’s history, won the Catholic School Championship of m New Jersey and how our quintet emerged victorious from the Dickinson contest with the added honor of City Champions. But one more distinction remains and M Oil now the student body supports the hard-working baseball squad in their efforts to add more glory to the fair name of their Alma Mater. Our only regret is our inability at this early date to recount the list of victories we confidently expect to amass.

In our quest for diamond glory we depend on the trusty arms of our stellar moundsmen, Tommy Pickett and Nat Kipp, who are ably aided by “Chubby” Ryan

and Steve Ferko. “Benny” Geraghty, diminutive Freshman twirler shows promise of future greatness. “Bob” Gildea, a late acquisition is also showing up well. To receive their slants are two veterans, Danny Lee and Frank Coyle. The first base assignment seems to be capably taken care of by Eddie Skeuse, a budding star. ' Dick King at shortstop and “Sonny” Grant at second base form a flashing key­ stone combination with Jerry McAteer or H arry Donohue at third base rounding out a formidable looking inner defense. Little need be said about our trio of out-fielders. In captain Bill Coleman and “Rosy” Ryan, Mr. Myers has a gifted pair of fielders with John “Fat” Roth probably completing the team.

And what more capable reserves could a mentor desire than Johnny Conroy and Charley Boyle, catchers, Tom Carlin and Johnny Boylan, infielders with Jim Barrett, Joe Coreliss and “Red” Beards finishing off a second string outfield.

Again let us remind you that we consider our hopes for a championship well founded and we assure our players of the wholehearted support of the student body.

TRACK

ARDLY had the smoke of battle cleared from the sensational triumph of the Prep over Dickinson on the ribbed court when Mr. Toranich, S. J., issued a call for candidates for the Track Team. Track at St. Peter’s has always submitted to the popularity of the other sports but this year a fine crowd of promising youngsters, along with several veterans, turned out to show their speed. The Prep has great hopes for a good showing at the sport this year for the silksters have turned in some fine performances in their early practices. Captain Dick King, whose speed won him a varsity berth on the Prep football team, together with Harold Bayerl and H arry Cronan will form the basis of what promises to be a great relay team. The remaining position will fall to the lot of Gordon Rodgers, Torn Corbett or Harold Rauch. <, “Bill” W ard and Gerald Patterson will be entered in all 440 events. “Huskey’* Norton whose playing a ttack le son the Prep thrilled. th&j|aij§ in the Di^kfe'soi* game will try his hanfl at'weight throwing.
