F)edication

Ye Domesday Bootie of 1925 is affection­ately dedicated to our beloved President, the Reverend CJiarles W. Lyons, S.T., a true priest, an intense American, a com­petent executive, whose noble heart reaches out with tenderness to each man of us— an inspiration to our labors, a balm to our sorrows and a constant reminder of our spiritual duties.

Foreword E DOMESDAY BOOKE of 1925 is the result of long and arduous labor and the work of a staff that contributed

its best. The pages reek with perspira­tion and midnight oil hidden by the glamor of print and pictures. Our efforts were willing, however ineffectual or un­

successful we may have been, and we only ask that errors of omission or corhmission be attributed to our ineffici­ency, rather than a willful intent to do wrong. Here is >'our Booke, Class of 192.5—we haxe done our best.

Te Olden F)ayes

STABLISHED in 1789 and situated in the Capital City, the early

histor}' of Georgetown College is a record of quaint and curious

incidents, and touches nearly the lives of m a n y great Americans of the

period. T h e year 1925 is the one hundred and thirtieth anniversary

of the first visit of President George Washington to Georgetown College, and

consequently of the establishment of the tradition in fulfillment of which the

Presidents succeeding him ha\e attended the ceremonies of C o m m e n c e m e n t

D a y . Washington, it is related, used to ride over from M o u n t Vernon, on horse­

back, to visit the two sons of Justice Washington, of the Supreme Court of the

United States, w h o were students at the College and relatives of the President.

O n one occasion, Robert Walsh, a student, delivered a poetical address of welcome

to Washington, a test of the scholarship of the day, which is still preserved at

Georgetown, and later delivered a memorial address, w h e n the occasion of the

death of Washington was obserxed at the College. It is interesting to note, in

this connection, that the son, grandson and great-grandson of this student have

themselves been students at Georgetown. W e read in the "Resolves concerning

the institution of the school," dated 1785, which formed part of the general plan

for the establishment of Georgetown and which are set out in full in the histories

of the University by Dr. Shea, M r . James S. Easby-.Smith and J. Fairfax

McLaughlin, the following:

"The pension for tuition shall be ten pounds currency per annum;

with the pension the students shall be provided with masters, books,

papers, pens, ink and firewood in the school."

Notwithstanding this requirement, that tuition be paid in specie, it is a

matter of record that payments were m a d e in the form of fine colts tjy Virginia

planters, w h o entered their sons as students, an early instance of an effort to

exchange \lrginia steeds for Pegasus.

T h e outfit of a student of tho.se days and of the present is shown in sharp

contrast by the following extract from an old prospectus of the College, dated

1 7 8 9 —

"Every boarder upon his entrance into the College is to bring with him six

shirts, six pair of stockings, six pocket-handkerchiefs, four cravats, four towels,

one hat, three pair of shoes, all quite new."

T h e uniform for the season in which he comes, consisting in a complete suit

for Sundays and another for week days; a silver tumbler and spoon, two knives

and forks, a mattress and a pillow, two pair of sheets and two pillow cases, three

blankets and a counterpane or rug.

T h e attire prescribed for Seniors w a s as follows: " T h e Sunday and holiday

dress is uniform, and consists of a plain coat and pantaloons of blue cloth, with

yellow buttons and a waistcoat of red cloth."

[1.5]

This costume was worn when the collegians marched to the Capitol to profit by listening to the deliberations of the .Senate and House of Representatives.

And when they formed a guard of honor for President Monroe. There is no mention made of athletics at this time, though it is true John

W a d e was fencing master at the College in 1789 and that dancing was taught at the same time. In 1813 a fine handball alley was erected on the site of the present Healy Building. This sport appeared to be the principal form of athletics

for many years. In 1814, the College students saw the retreat through Georgetown of the

American troops and the brightness in the sky as the British set fire to the President's House, the Capitol and Treasury. It was expected that the College would be burned also, as the British troops were in plain view from Georgetown, but the men-of-war dropped down the Potomac without molesting the College. It is a matter of record, that, as a special treat the Seniors made a short journey down the River in a steamboat on September 19, 1816; the steamboat was then

but little past the experimental stage, and the journey was regarded as an important demonstration in Physics. The first College paper was the "Minerva," which appeared in 1821. Type and presses were not accessible to the students then and the little periodical circulated in manuscript. With the visit of Lafayette and the enrollment of over one hundred students, in 1824, the modern history, comparatively, of the University begins. The establishment of the other I'ni-versity Departments—the Medical School in 1849, the Law School in 1870 and the Dental School in 1897, the gradual development into a LTniversity with a normal registration of 1,500 men, the visits of Clay, Webster and Calhoun, the latter of w h o m used to chop logic with the Professor of Metaphysics, belonging

to the later history of Georgetown.

Apropos of the many interesting facts connected with Georgetown l ni-

versity's unique and appealing history let us present to you a few extracts and excerpts from the story by Reverend Peter V. Masterson, S.J., Professor of History, captioned " A Short Sketch of Georgetown University," in the book

Catholic Builders of the Nation: — " T h u s , Bishop Carroll was able to write to Father Plowden in the early

part of 1788: 'We shall begin the building of our Academy this summer.—It will be three stories high—On this Academy is built all m y hope of permanency

and success to our holy religion in the United States.' "The original plot of ground comprising one acre and a half was acquired

in January, 1789, but it was not until more than two years later that William Gaston, of North Carolina, afterward a distinguished member of both bodies of the National Congress, entered Georgetown as its first student. He was quickly followed by students from many quarters of the East and South, and in 1795 it was found necessary to erect a dormitory building to accommodate the increasing numbers. This structure, known as the North Building to distinguish it from the

I Hi I

South Hall, still remains in a satisfactory state of preservation, and forms the

sole link of the present institution with the original foundation.

" Prominent officials of the Federal Government and eminent Americans and

Europeans from ex'ery walk of life, in the century and a quarter of its existence,

have stood iqion T h e North Porch, as upon a national stage, and addressed the

Georgetown student body and its friends, concerning the high ideals of service

to G o d and Country. Once, tradition says, after the destruction of the Capitol

by the British in 1814, the building was employed as executive headquarters for

the National Go\ernnient, and within the recollection of the present student body

a long succession of memorable e\ents has been closed by the presence of Marshall

Foch and President C a b i n Coolidge.

"This growing interest in Catholic education had an e\pansi\'e effect upon

the perspective of those whose duty it was to direct the destines of the college,

and w h e n the opportunity for the establishment of a Medical .School w a s pre­

sented in 1851 to President Ryder, by certain well-known Washington physicians,

he enthusiasticalh' accepted it.

"This, of course, was manifestly a step into the field of University education,

rendered possible under the charter of Georgetown, first granted by Congress to

the President and Directors of Georgetown College in 1815 and later reenacted

in 1844 to contain a more explicit grant of academic authority, hi 1855 the

Graduate School, which up to this point had enjoyed a somewhat desultory

e.xistence, was thoroughly overhauled. T h e curriculum was redrafted, the school

itself restaffed, and what was more important, a definite administrative control

and adjustment effected with the tmdergraduate department of Arts and Sciences.

"These efforts to expand were (.'ontintied, and in 1870 the Rev. Bernard

Maguire, then Rector of Georgetown, announced at the annual c o m m e n c e m e n t

that 'we are about to enlarge the functions of the institution by the establish­

ment of a law department'; and that 'this completes our course as a Unixersity.'

"Yet this statement by Father Maguire that the goal had been reached w a s

not entirely correct. In 1870 University education, in what m a y be called

its plan of operation, had not broken completely with the past, and the traditional

notion that instruction in Medicine, L a w , the Arts and Cicneral .Science con­

stituted the adequate function of the University was generally accepted. It

w a s not, therefore, until m a n y years after, w h e n Dentistry had settled itself into

the intelligible mould of a science, that Georgetown (in 1901), extended its arms

to embrace the Washington Dental College as a legitimate department of the

University. Since that important event only one other addition has been m a d e

to the University family, the establishment in 1919 of the Georgetown School of

Foreign Service. This youngest child, as often happens in h u m a n families, has

proved the most interesting of the \'aried University group. Following close

upon the conclusion of the W'orld W'ar, the institution of the Foreign Service

School was a venture which emerged in startling outline from the lessons learned

in that stupendous struggle. T o both business m e n and educators, as well as,

and perhaps principally, to Government officials, it was clear that America had

failed to take advantage of Germany's forced retirement from international

I 17]

trade chiefl\' because there was neither the courage to face the situation nor the trained personnel to carry effective into operation any plans which might be

devised. To answer this challenge, the University's faculty, supported by men prominent in the Government service and the industrial world, founded the Georgetown F'oreign Service School. It is a new departure in University educa­

tion, in a sense a complete deviation from type, and its development is being closely watched in many quarters.

"It should be added here that in 1896 the first foundations of the George­town Unixersity Hospital were laid and in the succeeding years several additions were made to the original building. It is a modern plant under the supervision of the Sisters of Saint Francis and has won its way to an excellent position largely through the self-sacrifice and skill of these Sisters, and through the

generosity and loyalty of many, great and small, of the Medical Profession in the District of Columbia. One other institution was established and attached to Georgetown University in 1911, the Seismological Observatory. It is, perhaps, in the scientific world, the best known earthquake station in America.

"These were the principal steps in the external growth of Georgetown Uni\'ersity, from the obscure Academy serving the needs of the few thousand Catholics scattered along the Atlantic Coast to the powerful Unixersity of today' whose graduates are literally in every quarter of the globe and whose service, pureh' on its own merit, has been extended to every race and creed. In 1797 there were thirty-one students in the College; in 1857 all departments showed an enrollment of 333, while in 1924-25 there were approximately 3,500 students on the University lists.

"This was growth that Bishop Carroll never suspected at the opening of the College in 1791, on which occasion he wrote to Father Plowden : 'The George­town .Academy will be opened in a few days; but not so ad\'antageously as I had hoped.'

"In the beginning the problem of administration vexed the Bishop and he bombarded his friends in Europe with letters in an effort to obtain a suitable man to head the new College. In the end the Reverend Robert Plunkett came from England to accept the post. .Since Father Plunkett, Georgetown has had thirty-sex'en presidents, and main' of these executi\'es ha\'e had distinguished careers."

The Faculty

|H that we might be blessed with words to express the lo\e and appreciation that is in the heart of e\'ery man of us for the Faculty of Georgetown. For four all too short, happy, years we have been fortunate in having not niereh' instructors on the essentials and

standards of life but friends, in these broad-gauged, noble men of God. Association with our faculty has set our li\'es in a happy medium from

which, with remembrances of days on the Hilltop always in our hearts, we shall never deviate. They have shaped our young, plastic natures for the safe and sane things of the wf)rld, the honest deal, the worthy citizen, the steadfast child of Jesus.

Dear Faculty, we would that we might tarry longer with you, but time passes and the business of life awaits us. God grant we may e\'er justify your influence and reflect credit on you whom we carry forth into the world of men locked in our memories.

To be sung by tJie echoes once more.

Figil

Listen! tliere comes thru the dartz-ness

The song of old Georgetown s hdl

Chanting the hour of midnight

To the echoes that iinow it so well.

It sings o'er the silent river.

That race from Maryland's hills.

On rush the laughing waters

And ever the song repeat

Till the pchoes sing with the pine trees

[33]

The months rushed on. F'ields of athletics, dramatics, debating and literary work held forth wealth of experience and fame to those who would venture upon their expanse. Undaunted members of the class strode in and gained the laurels due.

Eight men merited the coveted varsity "G." Paul Byrne, George Dufour and Fred .Sheehan played varsity football of high calibre. In track, George Marsters and George Kinnaly were members of the record-breaking medley relay team and the team which captured the Cardinal O'Connell cup. Points toward Georgetown victories in various meets came through the efforts of Paul Herlihy, Edward Brooks, and Andrew Gaffey.

Gaston and White debating societies welcomed the talented debaters in the class. The Glee Club shared with the Mask and Bauble Club the artists of the class along these lines. The standards of the Journal and the Hoya attracted those of literary bent.

With June there came elections for the Sophomore year and exams, the final barrier between Freshman ignominy and Sophomore self-confidence.

Capable, well-organized, and justly proud of its acti\'ities as Freshmen, the class elected President, Gordon Barry; Vice-President, Charles Reynolds; Secretary, Edward Brooks; and Treasurer, Michael Donox'an.

+ * if: *

Weaker in number, but with undaunted spirit, the class assumed its office of dictator to the Frosh with the turning of the lea\'es in twenty-two.

The new regime of officers, elected in June, took up its duties. The direction of the \'igilance Committee was happily entrusted to James McLarney. So well did this judiciary enforce Frosh regulations that cries for his blood were frequent and loud in the Sophomore-Freshman game.

This fray, in which Jack Fla\'in's .Sophs held Maloney's Frosh to a 7 to 6 score in a contest replete with thrills, showed a gallant defense go down to defeat, overcome by a determined offense.

Harvey's cuisine attracted the Smoker Committee when that body took up its functions and there a most convivial affair was held, enlivened by musical offerings under the direction of Richard MacDonough.

The attention of the other classes was commanded b\' the excellence of a Tea dance, held by the class, at Rauscher's. At this affair, music was furnished by the Collegians, then only a fledgling orchestra, later a recognized group of harmony masters. Organized by Richard MacDonough, banjo; \'incent Downey, trumpet; James Costello, saxophone; and Charles Reynolds, traps, all members of the Class of '25, furnished a delightful brand of melody for functions held within and outside of these walls.

At the coaches' call, defenders of '25's athletics reputation dallied not but sallied forth to add laurels to their brows and renown to their class. Adams, Byrne, Degasis, Dufour, and .Sheehan were scintillant on the gridiron; Marsters, Gaffey, Kinnaly, Brooks, and Murray bore aloft the track standard; the art of caging baskets in Ryan G y m was tibly demonstrated by Brogaii, Dono\'an, and .Sweeney.

Other members of the class aided materially in the success of the Intra­mural .Sports League, a new-born athletic league for inter-hall sport.

Lew Carran and T o m Daly went through a successful season on the tennis courts; Johnny Doran and Joe Rouse shot their way to fame as riflemen.

Dramatics and the Glee Club boasted many a talented youth from the ranks of '25; the Journal gained a frequent and gifted contributor in Frank Morginson; the Hoya derived much of its success through articles from the pens of Gordon Barry, T o m Callaghan, and Bill Gillan.

June, with its warmth and beaut\' soon became a reality.

134]

There remained elections for the coming year. The class chose, for its President, Edward Brooks; for Vice-President, Thomas Daly; for Secretary, Frank Noble; for Treasurer, Harold McCormick.

Brief farewells, a hurried handclasp, and the Sophomore year of the class was o'er. A year of marked progression in all fields, one that boded great things for the Fall when the numerals of the Junior class should be one-nine-two-fi\'e.

^ ^ ^ ^

The seasons must roll on. Autumn succeeding .Summer. So, the Fates resumed their spinning of the class' destiny when the summer months at length gave way to Fall.

Those who returned made bold to face Philosophy, that W'ill-o-the-Wisp whichever flits ahead and leads to depth of thought.

Knowing the ropes, like upper-classmen who have gone before, arrangements for a smoker were made right soon. Held at the Madrillon and arranged by Charles Perlitz and his committee, the party was a most auspicious opening of the social round.

Soon after, a tea was held at the City Club, another triumph for the class, a notable achievement for the committee in charge.

All our efforts were directed to one object, paramount in the minds of every Junior classman, the Junior Prom. To Greg Korte were the duties of committee chairman detailed. This gentleman from the State of Washington selected a competent committee which arranged all details in masterly fashion.

Progression became our watchword in every line. Football saw Jerry Minihan scrap his way to a varsity berth and the distinction of being the lightest regular center in Eastern college ranks. Sheehan, Degasis, Adams, Dufour, Murray, DesRaismes, Brooks, Korte, Gaffey, and Capt. Paul Florence, who played all season under the handicap of an injured knee, was the roster of Juniors who chased the pigskin. At the close of the gridiron season, Fred Sheehan was elected captain for the year of 1924.

In basket-ball, Brogan, Sweeney, and Donovan repeated their success of previous years.

Two track stars, Capt. Marsters and Kinnaly, took up their studies at the Foreign Service School. These men, together with Blessing, Brooks, Gaffey, and Murray continued to carry on upon the cinder path.

Early in the second semester Paul Florence left the Hilltop to join the New York Giants. George Adams and George Dufour, also athletes of note were lost to the class about this time.

The diamond game called in the Spring, Paul Mudd and Mike Donovan, attending and giving heed again.

Lew Carran and T o m Daly retained their old and gained new laurels on the tennis courts.

John Doran, Joe Rouse, and Herb Walsh held high place on the college rifle team.

Closing the year and preceding elections for Senior, a formal banquet was tendered to the Junior faculty at the University Club.

.A.ware of the responsibilities about to be incumbent upon the class as .Seniors, its members started aright by placing the lead reins in the able hands of Frank Murray, President. Jo.seph DesRaismes was elected to the \'ice-Presidency. Joseph Rouse became the class financial wizard and John Miniter, class Secretary.

Athletic Association officers, chosen by the class and approved by the student body, were: Gerald Murphy, President; James Sullivan, Treasurer; Frank Noble, Secretary. Thus closed the Junior year.

Cap and C^own at last! In itself a dream come true.

[35]

Traditions of Senior Hall to be upheld—we who had followed precept became preceptors now. Such thoughts were ours in the Fall of '24 as we became the Hilltop Senior class.

The Honor .System was allowed us, a pri\'ilege desired and received with great elation. To care for its enactment, an Honor Committee of twelve was appointed, Esmond Murphy being Chairman.

Playing the ]iart of host, the ' lass gave an inxitation Tea dance to the underclasses at Rauscher's in early October. A class smoker, arranged by C hair-man Joseph Gorman and Committee, followed closely upon the success of the Tea.

The spotlight changed, its focus resting upon the gridiron game. As an evidence of leadership, six .Seniors won \'arsity football letters. Led by Capt. Sheehan and Minihan, veterans. Brooks, Gaffey, Korte, and Murray gained the coveted award. The Northern Lights came through with the Inter-Hall cham­pionship.

At the close of the season, a Prom and Tea were held at Rauscher's in honor of the \'arsity team. The party, arranged by a committee with Fred. Sheehan as Chairman, was a keenly enjoyable affair, touching the peak of perfection.

In planning for the Senior Prom, X'ictor St. Onge was chosen to be chairman at a meeting of the class at which Gordon Barry was elected Editor and William Kalt, Business Manager of the Domesday Booke.

The annual play of the Mask and Bauble Club was held in January. "It Pays to .'\d\'ertise," Cohan's noted comedy, was staged in Trinity Hall. W m . Kalt and Jas. McLarne>', in the role of father and son, respectively, were admir­ably cast. Norman Muhlfeld directed the stage management during the three-day run.

John Joyce led the Glee Club in which many another Senior lifted his xoice in song.

Al Brogan captained the basketeers. A very successful season resulted, with Al and Jim Sweeney corraling points in plenty.

Debating honors also accrued to the class. James E. McLarney won the Merrick Debate while Robert M . Hitchcock carried off the Philonomosian Cup in brilliant oratorical exhibitions.

The journalistic paper of the school, the Hoya, was edited by W m . C. Gillan and Gordon Barry and managed by Edward M . De Castro. The College Journal was edited by Frank Morginson.

Captain Herb Walsh and Joe Rouse went through a season of \'ictory on the rifle team.

Lew Carran captained the tennis team. In track. Blessing, Brooks, Gaffey, and Murra>' held forth upon the o\'al.

Eddie Brooks ran lead-off man on the two-mile relay team, world's champions over the distance.

The Senior Prom was held at the Mayflower earh' in Ma\'. Senior Week a little later on, a week of great good-fellowship, concluded our social acti\'ities as undergraduates.

Friendship, most precious of all gain at college, with both students and faculty, it was our fortune to enjoy, and here we beg a pause to tell our \'ALE to the faculty.

Your influence has been our inspiration in learning what is best in life. To you we owe f)ur erudition not alone in intellectual knowledge gleaned from books liut also in the greater good of character.

As we go forth we carry with us a lasting memory of you, our guardians and preceptors in the way that we should go.

M a y we pro\'e otirseK'es to be wortlu' of \'our trust!

Junior Qlass History ND you will wear the distinctive caps." It sounded like the death

sentence of some adamant hearted inquisitor over a helpless horde of innocents. W e ground our teeth and the more sophisticated m e m b e r of our assemblage spat terse whispered invective on the

heels of the Vigilants words. Regardless of this mentally rebellious attitude, w e were subdued and for three months without respite traversed the beaten path of contemptible freshman existence. Nevertheless it must not be imagined that this "beaten path" hallowly echoed the uncertain foot steps of a straggling group of the college proletarian for the class which audibly groaned under sophomore restraint in September, 1922, underwent a remarkable metamorphosis and became an organized body of students.

According to age—old custom w e sought leaders and found them in the persons of Eugene Golsen, John Slane, William Cooney and Francis McCahill, w h o w e selected for the respective offices of President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer. This from an apparently amorphous incipiency developed the gregariousness and organization to which all manner of accomplishment in society is indebted.

O n the evening of December thirteenth, the Freshman Smoker was held at Harvey's and the success of this initial social event of the class of 1926 proved to be only a harbinger of the memorable Freshman tea dance, held at the City Club, April 21, 1923. However, even more important than the social problems was the Sophomore-Freshman Football game, for with it came the long sought period of respite and surcease from the castigation of the Sophomores. Never­theless at the end of the football season. Freshman athletics did not cease but a basket-ball and baseball team of prowess equal to that of the football team continued to augment the laurels already won.

So m u c h for the first year of the Class of '26. T h e effects of the exams were not as deliterious as they were expected to be and the same gathering almost in toto, entered upon the Sophomore year. T h e newly chosen officers were estab­lished in the positions and the names of President Louis O'Leary; Vice-President, Louis Metzger; Secretary, Anthony Brennan and Treasurer, John T. Doran were entered on the Sophomore roster beside the n a m e of the "ScQurge of the

[ 61 ]

Freshman class" viz., the Chairman of the Sophomore Vigilance Committee.

Simon Legree never gripped a gadfly in firmer hand than Bob Castellini, used in punishing delinquent Freshmen. With .some regret, no doubt, the most laborious part of his task was completed when the yearlings defeated the Sopho­

more football team on December 8th. With the usual pomp and ceremony were held the two annual social events

of the Sophomore Class. The smoker took place October 18th and the tea dance on January 19th, of the following year. M a n y other interesting events occurred during that time, but they did not have the same quality of general interest possessed by the ones enumerated above and hence will not remain as indelibly impressed on the minds of the members of the class.

On September, 1924, we became philosophers or at least we successfully

felt that we deserved the title for our whole existence seemed fraught with the weird abracadbra of logic and the subsequent "ologies." However, there were a few odd moments when these sciences did not entirely absorb our attention. In these odd moments, we performed the customary duty of doing some things which are necessary to chronicle as the most recent and undoubtedly the most important activities of our class.

Toward the close of Sophomore Year, we elected to the offices of President and Vice-President, William Cooney and Francis Bowen, while we chose Albert Giordano and Charles Ferrall to pursue the duties of Secretary and Treasurer. In connection with this administration mention must be made of the acquisition of the extra night permission which was negotiated and consummated by the untiring efforts of Bill Cooney.

As in previous years the Smoker and tea dance were held but these two affairs utterly lost their importance when compared to that apogee of all social endeavors, the Junior Prom.

The Prom took place at the N e w Willard Hotel on February Sixth and from the moment the Bar Harbour Society Orchestra unpacked their shining saxo­phones and gilded bowler hats, the evening promised to be a prodigious success. The committee on whose shoulder was laid the responsibility of arranging for both the prom and tea dance which followed it on Saturday, February se\'enth, consisted of Edmund Bingham, Chairman; Frederick Hickey, Celestino C. Vega, Jr., Walter J. Thompson, Paul Van Laanan and Jack L. Sweeney.

With the consummation of the prom, the most important activities of the Junior Class have ceased so that the only thing that remains for us to do is ponder upon what our final year will bring. In such a reverie we only hope that as Seniors we shall be as worthy of that dignity as the Class of '25 has been. For they are leaving in the minds of the Junior Class the memory of men who con­stantly signalized themselves by their good fellowship, during the three short years in which we knew them.

Sophomore Qlass Officers JOHN F. THAETE President

CHARLES B. GINNOCHIO. Vice-President FRANCIS C. GAFFNEY .....Secretary

FRANCIS B. DELEHANTY Treasurer

Sophomore Qlass History NTERING college was naturally a momentous event to the Class of

1927, and we had the proverbial hopes and fears. W e were just about a hundred and ninety units, proud and apart each with himself. But happily for us, during the first week we found ourselves the elements

in a sort of chemical reaction. At least it resembled such a reaction in that we all lost our separate properties and became a compound which to this time has held inseparable—a compound of good fellowship, class spirit, and the common love for our Alma Mater. Last year we would not have admitted it, but we gradually came to the realization that the Sophomore Class were the force behind our amalgamation, the catalyst in the reaction.

Officers were elected. Under the circumstances, still somewhat strange, our selections might have been unfortunate. On the contrary, however, Mr. Murphy as President, and Messrs. Thaete, Higgins, and Saul as Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer in order, so guided us over the treacherous shoals of discord that infest the Sea of the First Year, that it was generally granted that no PVeshman Class could be much better.

In the class-room, the class did consistent work, winning for Georgetown the annual Province Exam in Horace. In the field of athletics, our tracksters took first honors in the inter-class meet. Our gridman mercilessly charged through the Sophomores for the greatest triumph any Freshman Class has ever achieved at Georgetown in the annual class battle. Our representatives on the basket-ball court went through the season with every game a victory, hanging up even the admittedly very tough scalp of the Navy Plebes. And to close this brilliant year in athletics we offered a strong baseball team, which upheld the standard set by our other teams during the year.

On the social side, it can be said that our class always generously supported the functions of the other classes and of the school. Our Smoker at Harvey's in December brought out the lively interest of each man in his class affairs.

W e were more confident on our return as .Sophomores and started out with even more vim than last year. "Sheriff E d " Keogh and his posse set out with orders to shoot to kill, but without a single shot effectively subdued the haughty Freshmen. Mr. Thaete, last year's Vice-President, was elevated to the presi­dency with Mr. Ginnocchio in the role of Vice. Mr. Gaffney was elected Secretary

[65]

and Mr. Delehanty was choen to guard our resources. All of these men performed their tasks well and had the willing help of all of us.

On the track our runners again took the Inter-Class title and starred as wearers of Georgetown's "G." Also in football we contributed valuable material

to the Varsity, and in the Freshman contest, fought the yearlings to a scoreless tie, which constituted a victory for us.

Our Smoker at the Madrillon in December was just as great a success as last year's, and the class and college functions again found our ready cooperation throughout the year. Our outstanding claim to social distinction as a class, however, rests in our Tea Dance, that was held at the N e w Willard Hotel in January of 1925. Mr. Corbett and his dance committee engineered the plans for this dance and brought them into glorious effect, with the result that the affair was recognized on all sides as the most interesting tea dance in the history of Georgetown. W e set a precedent when, in preparation for the affair, the class paid for large advertisements in the Hoya and Journal. Besides this exhibition of school spirit, the class went further and contributed towards the Inter-Hall League one-third of the profits of the affair, which percentage amounted to an appreciable sum.

In pursuit of education, the old vigor was still with us, and found its reward in our recognition as an exceptionally industrious class. The class satirists con­tributed weekly gems of wit to the Hoya under the title of "Splashes From Y e Old Pump." M e n of '27 made up the majority of the Journal Staff and one-third of the Hoya staff.

Whatever we have accomplished we owe to Georgetown, to the sympathetic influence of its faculty and its environment. Under their care we must have responded—it is all embracing, paternal. There is no Georgetown man who does not see the light of their guidance, the hope in their hearts. W e are for '27 because we are for Georgetown. M a y we have the strength and wisdom to carry on through graduation and to the end the spirit they have fostered within us.

Freshman Qlass History 5 has been the case in past years, there came to Georgetown in the

sunny days of September a group of youths, some curious, some shrinking, some bold, and all willing and eager to make friends and get acquainted with the institution of which they were about to become and important part.

W e of the Freshman Class were soon made to feel at our ease by the formation of companionships and the routine of school work came, not as a dread, but as a pleasure. The many and varied traditions of Georgetown had to be impressed on our minds and the fact that we were the smallest in importance, of the many groups of this University had to be brought home to our perhaps over-confidential minds.

The traditional policing of the Freshmen by the Sophomores, the hated skull caps, the "summons," and other acts continually kept showing members of our class that we were by no means the leading factor in the school and that we had a long road to travel before our self-styled importance would be noticed.

After a short period in which we had opportunities to better know our fellow-classmates, we assembled for the purpose of choosing adequate leaders who would be entrusted with the destines of the Freshmen. After much deliberation, we chose William Finley as President, Ross Beck, Vice-President; Frank Kelly, Secretary and .Steven Baron as Treasurer. These representatives of the new class ably conducted the affairs of the Freshmen and the members of the class gave their full and willing cooperation to the new officers.

In the realm of athletics the incoming students were not to be out-done by any other previous class. On the football field we were represented by a strong, well-drilled eleven, which never once tasted defeat during the season. Although an abbreviated schedule was played, the opponents of the yearling team were of a high-grade and of the type that required a strong team to defeat. The Naval Apprentice School and the powerful Naval Academy Plebes went down before the Georgetown Freshmen players. The annual "Battle of Caps" was played under adverse weather conditions and the final whistle found both teams deadlocked in a scoreless tie.

Both our basket-ball and baseball teams were well worthy of a Georgetown team and they helped to a great extent in keeping the Blue and Gray on a high

an intes-ra

[69]

athletic plane. In addition to the Freshmen teams, we supplied the varsity basket-ball and baseball teams with plenty of good material, which proved

indindispensable as the season progressed. Our social functions also reflected on the good character of the class, as

each one of them was a great success. The class smoker, held at the Raleigh soon after the Christmas holidays, was successful from all views and congratula­tions were due Frances Moran and his committee in charge of the affair. The true congenial spirit of the class was well manifested and gave an indication of our later successful enterprises.

The Freshman Tea Dance, held at one of the leading hostelries, was another financial and social undertaking which turned out to be one of the best of the year. James Mahoney, assisted by an able committee, conducted the affair in praise-worthy manner.

Summing up the entire year, there is little doubt that the Class of 1928 is a worthy representative of Georgetown and we feel that every Blue and Gray follower will ha\'e cause to feel proud of the class to be graduated four years from now.

zy)(terrick "Debate |HE fifty-first Debate for the Merrick Medal was held in Gaston Hall, .Sunday evening, December the fourteenth. The medal was founded by Richard T. Merrick, LL.D., '73. The debate is open to members of the Philodemic Society only. The society selects, by secret ballot, the four debaters to take part in the contest. The question chosen

was: "That the concurrence of at least two-thirds of the judges of the Supreme Court should be required to establish the unconstitutionality of an act of Con­gress." The debaters drew lots to determine the order of speakers and the sides to be defended. The affirmatixe was upheld by Esmond D. Murphy, '25, and Joseph B. Brennan, '25. The negati\'e was argued by Thomas A. Callaghan, '25, and James E. McLarney, '25. The debate was presided oxer b\' James PI. Piekenbrock, '25. Hon. Adolph A. Hoehling, of the District of Columbia Supreme Court, announced the decision of the judges. The negative side won the debate and the Merrick Medal was awarded to James E. McLarney.

The question chosen was, "Resolved; That the Formation of a Third Major Political Party Would Advance the Cause of Representative Government in the United States." The affirmative was upheld by Leo \'. Fahy, '25 and Robert M . Hitchcock, '25, winner of the Prize Extempore Debate in 1924-25. The negative was composed of Thomas P. Loughlin, '26, and William C. Gillan, '25, President, of the Society. Francis J. Murray, '25, acted as chairman.

Ty^^ T^hilonomosian Debating Society HE Philonomosian Debating Society has experienced a fairly success­

ful year, despite the fact that it was severely handicapped by the loss of a great number by graduation last June. Under the direction of the new Chancellor, Rev. Peter V. Masterson, S.J., work of the society has been carried forward in a capable manner. The Lecture

Bureau, which made its first appearance in 1921 resumed its activities this year again with great success.

For the first time, since its reorganization in 1920, the organization has been a strictly Senior Debating Society, and recognized by the faculty on a par with the Philodemic Society. Beginning next year, there will be a series of annual debates between these two .Senior societies, which, it is expected, will rixal the annual clash of the Gaston-White organizations.

The annual debate for the Philonomosian Cup took place in Gaston Hall on the eleventh day of January. The speakers, chos.sen by competition, were for the affirmative, Leo \'. F"ahy, '25, of D. C , and Robert Hitchcock, '25, of Penn­sylvania, for the negative, Thomas P. Loughlin, '26, of New Hampshire, and William C. Gillan, '25, of Massachusetts. The subject chosen was, "Resolved, that the Formation of a Third Major Political Party in the United States Would Advance the Cause of Representative Government." The debate was won by the negative side and Robert Hitchcock, of Penn.sylvania, was awarded the trophy. It was presented along with the cup that he won in the Ex-Tenipore Debate last year to Mr. Hitchcock at Commencement.

In addition to its outside activities the society has passed many pleasant and instructive evenings in the weekly debates, and timely topics were di.scussed frequently in the Open Forum, which followed the meetings.

[74]

T^hilodemic Society

llf^^'T^^HE Philodemic Society, September 25, 1830, holds the distinction of : ^ g l ^ | being the oldest college debating society in the United States. yBBl^al Throughout its long and honorable existence, the names of many |ils =.,.:c 3| of its illustrious members have given evidence of the lofty ideals which inspired its founders and characterized its activities throughout the years. The names of Edward Dougla.ss White, Admiral Schley, Richard T. Merrick, James Ryder Randall, author of "Maryland, M y Maryland," Father James Ryder, and others, bear witness to the motto inscribed on the seal of the Society, " C O L I T SOCIETAS PHILODEMICA COLLEGIO GEORGIAPOLITANO, ELO-Q U E N T I A M LIBERTATI DEVINCTAM." "The Philodemic Society of Georgetown College cultivates eloquence and liberty."

The Society awards annually in public debate the Merrick Medal, for half a century the most highly coveted prize within the reach of a Georgetown man. There is also awarded in public debate the Hamilton Medal for the greatest proficiency in the art of extempore debate.

This year, as in past years, under the direction of the Chancellor, Rev. John J. Toohey, S.J., the Society has continued as the foremost society of Georgetown.

[75]

White Debating Society

INCE its inception in 1912, the White Debating Society has held

steadily to its purpose of dex'cloping interest and skill in debating.

To accomplish this aim debates are held at the weekly meetings, and

a friendly rivalry maintained with the Gaston Debating Society,

culminating in the annual Gaston-White Debate.

In chosing subjects for discussion the policy of the Society is to a\'oid general

questions that require such extensive research that intelligent handling of them

is almost impossible.

Preference is given to more particular questions, within the experience of

the debator, that require clear thought, rather than mere erudition.

Nor does White confine itself entirely to formal debate—almost as much

time and attention is given to extemporaneous discussions, since, in main' respects,

this is of more use to the student in his e\'eryday life.

The activities of the year are shaped toward the annual Gaston-White

Debate, which decides, the relatixe standing of the two societies for the year.

In its early days. White was frequently the loser, but it has strixen forward to

successive victories in the last few years.

The White Debating .Society is composed of Freshmen and Sophomores.

[76]

Qaston Debating Society lOUNDED in nineteen hundred and eleven, Gaston Debating

Society is the older of the two Junior Debating Societies which prepare the student for the Senior Debating forms.

Realizing the true aim of education is the cultured gentleman, and in turn, the cultured gentleman is the man who can express

himself well. Gaston Debating Society has ever striven toward the ideal of truth and eloquence. To promote interest in the discussions and to offer opportunity fore\'ery member to express his views, much emphasis is gi\'en to the open forum. This important feature of the weekly debates has been noticeably successfully in giving the members the necessary confidence, in themselves, and the ability to defend their views under fire.

At each weekly meeting a regularly appointed debate is held. Since the subject matter ranges over the whole political and academic field, the debater becomes familiar with the more important questions of the day.

By far the most important debate of the year for the Junior Societies is the Gaston-White Debate. Gaston boasts with just pride, of the fact that the Society has been crowned victor in a majority of these contests. O F F I C E R S

Georgetown Qollege Journal HE Georgetown College Journal, rated as the "second best College literary publi­

cation in the country," was founded in 1872. For years it was but little more than a miniature edition of the present "The Hoya." It appeared i-nonthly but contained little real literary efforts.

The first real fathers of the Journal were Rev. J. .S. Sumner, .S.J. and the brilliant .-Mumnus, Conde B. Fallen. Under these two, it grew and prospered as a flower in

spring. Eighteen ninety-seven found it resplendent in the historic cover now in use, real essays, verse, and short stories—a publication alike devoted to purely classical lines and to the chronicle of the College.

|HIS organization has existed at Georgetown for a number of years. At times it was known to ha\'e among its number some of the country's foremost singers, as compared with other college Glee Clubs.

In the past few years interest in the Club waned a little until 1922 when enthusiasm in that direction was revived. Since then it has been on the upward climb and this year finds o\'er fort\' members enrolled in its ranks.

The Club points itself for the Mi-Careme Concert which was given on the 22nd of March. It also plans at the time of writing for a trip to Philadelphia and possibly to N e w York.

The Club will also probably \'isit one or more of the girls' schools in Wash­ington, subsequently broadcasting from one of the local stations.

ESMOND D. MURPHY President

JIHE latter part of the year 1923-24 wit­

nessed the foundation at Georgetown of a

college society that is something new not

only in the annals of Georgetown Uiii-

xersity but in the records of collegiate circles through­

out the country—The Pathfinder Club. The purpose

of this new organization is to assist college men in

selecting, while in college, the fields of endea\'or that

they are going to enter when the\' complete their

undergraduate work. The need for such a society has

been accentuated by the fact that so many college

men go through the four \'ears of their course without

thinking very hard about what they are going to do

when they are through.

It was for this particular purpose that this new

organization was founded: to present to the college

man, while in college, the fields of endea\'or that will

confront him on his graduation day and from which a selection must be made.

This is accomplished by inxiling each week a man from some business or pro­

fession to address the club on his own particular work. To indicate just what his

field embraces; to outline the work; to enumerate the needs and requisites for

success in this particular line; to estimate the opportunities that it offers to the

college man, and make suggestions as to helpful educational preparation.

Meml^ership in this club is restricted to members of the Senior and Junior

classes—the two clas.ses that are nearest the termination of their college career

and therefore the ones that are most intimately concerned with this question of

making a decision regarding a vocation in life.

Among those who addressed the Club the first year of its history are: Mr.

George E. Hamilton, Dean of the Georgetown University Law School and

President of the Capitol Traction Co.; Mr. B. Francis Saul, President of the B. F. Saul Realty Co. and prominent W'ashington businessman; the late Dr. Earnest La Place, eminent jihysician, of Philadelphia; John C. McNamara of N e w York, connected with the Penn Mutual Insurance Co.; U. S. Senator David I. Walsh, of Massachusetts; and Mr. William F. Leahy, prominent member of the District of Columbia Bar.

This year's schedule has included the names of: James .'\. Farrell, President of the United States Steel Corporation; T. \'. O'Connor, Chairman of the United States Shipping Board; David Lawrence, nationally known Washington correspondent and writer of syndicated news articles; and Dean Notz of the Foreign Service .School.

It is felt that the organization of the Pathfinder Club has been a very valutible contribution to the extra-curriculum acti\'ities at C^eorgetown and that its splendid success thus far gives promise of a golden future of real .service to Georgetown men.

Sodality of Our cfady Immaculate

(])MPOSED of Catholic students mainly of the llndergraduate .School the Sodality has for its chief aim the fostering in the hearts of the members a more than

ordinary devotion to Our Blessed Lady. The Sodality of the Blessed \'irgin, as it is now organized, was instituted in 1563, in the Ro m a n College by a young Belgian scholastic, Mr. John Leunis, S.J., who used to assemble his most fervent pupils after class hours and on Sundays and liolida\'s, to practice some simple de\'otions in honor of Our Lady. The devotion was soon taken up by other classes in the Ro m a n College, other colleges followed, and in a short time it had spread abroad so widely that the General of the Society petitioned Pope Gregory XIII for the sanction of the Church. In 1854 The Bull Omnipotentis Dei placed the seal of the Church 's formal sanction on the

undertaking by erecting the Roman Sodality as a Primary Congregation. The Bull proclaimed the Indulgences granted to the members of the Sodality, and gave to the Father General of the Society of Jesus, the power to erect like Sodalities everywhere, and to affiliate them with the R o m a n College. At the present time there are now in the world some forty thousand .Sodalities which include a total membership of about seven millions. It should be stressed that the Sodality is not a mere devotion, nor an empty enrollment, but that it is a way of life expressed in ones faithful practice of the rules, attendance at meetings, and cooperation in good works.

The Sodality in Georgetown College was organized in 1810 under the title of Our Lady Immaculate and the patronage of St. Aloysius, and became affiliated in the year 1833 with the Primary Sodality of the Ro m a n College. It is the oldest Collegiate Sodality in the United States.

Outstanding, among the usual activities of the year was the Solemn Recep­tion of candidates into the Sodality, which was held on the Feast of The Immacu­late Conception. The reception, the first of its kind, to be held here in some years, was a marked success, and was due to the splendid work and efforts of the Reverend Director. The Reverend Father Rector, Charles M . Lyons, S.J., contributed largely to the inipressiveness of the ceremony by deli\'eriiig a beautiful sermon on the benefit of the Sodality. The members of the Sodality in the scholastic year 1924-25 numbered about three hundred.

The Qhemistry Qlub

H E Chemistry Club, after six years of inactivity, was rejuvenated by the present outgoing Senior Class. A constitution was newly formed in November, 1923, and,

with the excellent supervision of Mr. Vincent A. Gookin, S.J., what was a dormant member of George­town 's life was turned into one of the most active of Georgetown 's societies.

The purpose of the Chemistry Club is to further the knowledge of the industrial applications of Chemistry. With this excellent object in view, the Chemistry Club was honored each week with a lecture delivered by the most prominent men in the chemical world, who make their home or visit in Washington. Every phase of chemical application was taken up and in many instances the lectures were illustrated by moving pictures, furnished by the Department of the

Interior, which was very zealous in furthering the aims of the Society. Soon after its reformation, the Chemistry Club was receiving aid from many

sources, the membership increased rapidly, until the present time, when the Class of 1925 looks with pride towards a chemical society which is second to none in college ranks. W e hope that the same standards will be carried on by the future classes as successfully as they have been by the outgoing officers and that the student body at Georgetown will continue to look on this branch of the college curriculum as favorably as they have during these past two years.

The Student Qouncil HE Student Council has for its purpose the achievement of the ideals

and the perpetuation of the traditions for which Georgetown College is justly proud. With keen foresight the students of the College, in some years past, realized that a concrete something was needed to

weld strongly the bonds between the various classes to insure that which is so essential to college life—school spirit.

They chose such a means as this organization to remove the rather deplorable lack of system which had interfered with both efficiency and progress due to the handling of the various class affairs in a haphazard way. The effects of the newly created council were indeed noticeable and in due order it quickly asserted itself as a representative institution.

This year, as in the past, the Student Council has promoted and fostered those activities which have made for a more united student body.

The personnel of the Student Council for the current scholastic year is Rev. Vincent S. McDonough, S.J., Faculty Member; Gerald F. Murphy, Yard President; Frank J. Murray, Senior Class President; William Cooney, Junior Class President; John Thaete, Sophomore Class President; William Finley, Freshman Class President; Joseph Brennan, Senior Representative; Leo Breslin, Junior Representative; and, Frank McDonnell, Sophomore Representative.

^^^A(orthern fjghts''''

EFORE entering upon a tirade of praise of the dauntless warriors that flaunted the red and gold (old gold) of North during the year of our Lord 1925, be it understood that these warriors were no ordinary athletes. They surpassed the common herd of football heroes and

diamond luminaries in many respects, not the least of which was their unique method of training. In fact it was so unique, that members of the \'arsity squads were heartily in favor of adopting it as their method likewise. The prized and petted athletes rose promptly at 10.30 every day except Saturday, which was a day of rest and recuperation. Even then, however, the discipline was not rela.xed; anyone of the glorified boys who was not fully dressed by 3.38 was ipso facto, automatically, and invariably deprived of his morning cream puff. This might seem rather .severe retribution to some, but it must be remembered that every evil must be firmly corrected in its incipient stage if it is to be checked at all. Then too, the hours of retiring were definitely established. The writer has not been able to find anyone who can say just what that hour was, but it was certainly rigidly adhered to.

But training, as we well know, is only the preparatory stage in the formation of a successful athletic machine. What really counts is the will to win. Those North boys surely had that will. Frequently it looked as if it might be their last will. There never was a time when they were not loyally supported. There never was a game at which they were not encouraged by sympathizers. Some­times these sympathizers were in the person of referees and umpires, but the

[88]

point to be noted is that they were always present. The North cheering section

invariably donned (not darned) their best bib and tucker, particularly the bib,

for the occasion of any contest. This is striking proof of their fighting spirit, as

anyone knows who has ever worn a tucker.

The practices were always secret, so very secret that there never was more

than two or three present in the room at a time. Usually they were carried on in

an informal sort of a way, such as this conversation—"What do you think of

her?" "She's not so much." To the ordinary man this would seem to be nothing

more than an appraisal of a mutual friend, but its real significance was known only

to the members of the team; hence it would be a violation of confidence to

betray its true meaning here. The coaching staff, while not highly paid, were

efficient to the nth degree. This degree as anyone acquainted with athletics,

realizes only too well is the acme of perfection.

Despite all these aforementioned drawbacks the Northern Lights annexed

the Inter-Hall football championship jointly with Maguire, and were undefeated

titleholders in basket-ball. W e cannot but suppose that they would have been

equally successful in polo, curling, and chess if opposition had been offered them.

It is with words of highest praise, therefore, that we bid adieu to the Athletes of

the 1925 edition of the Aurora Borealis. M A T T H E W J. LYONS, '25

The Qeorgetown University Seismological

Observatory By REV. FRANCIS A. TONDORF, S.J.

HE Georgetown University Seismological Observatory was established in January, 1911, on the invitation of the International Seismo­

logical Society with headquarters at Strassburg, Germany. The original in­stallation consisted of a horizontal and vertical seismograph after Wiechert. These instruments were tentatively set up at the base of the South Tower of the Healy Building. It was soon noted that this choice of location was unfortunate because of the rocking of the tower under heavy wind condi­tions. It was therefore decided to excavate a cave in the College quad­rangle and this was done. The cave measures appro.ximately 31 feet in length and 13 feet in width. Every precaution was taken to insure this underground tenament against heat changes and moisture.

A larger Wiechert instrument re­placed the smaller one and two instruments were added, a Bosch-Omori and Mainka seismograph of the horizontal type. With the intent of

establishing the varying conditions of transmission of elastic waves in different geological strata an instrument known as the Bosch Photographic Seismograph was placed in a concrete building abutting the Astronomical Observatory,_ on Observatory Hill. The demand of a standardized seismograph of the vertical type having been repeatedly emphasized it was recently decided to install one of the Galitzin type. This instrument is unique in that the registration is magnetic and the recording photographic. This machine is housed in the cave in the quadrangle in an isolated alcove.

Besides the monthly "Bulletins" sent to about 150 observatories encircling the world, care is taken to keep the public generally informed on the movements of Mother Earth by sending out dispatches over the wires of the several news agencies at home and abroad.

Editor's iVoZe—Reverend Francis Tondorf, S.J., the LTniversity Seismologist is probably the leading American authority on Seismological research in the country. He has been signally recognized by the United .States Government and the Pan-.^merican Seismological Union. It is through his genius that Georgetown's Observatory has become the best known in the country and his reports treated with the greatest respect and confidence b\' the Government as well as the Associated Press.

"biology Qlub HE Biological Club of Georgetown University was founded in 1913 by

the Reverend Francis A. Tondorf, S.J., then and now Professor of Biology, Chancellor of the Club, chief Seismologist of the University, and former professor of Physiology in the Medical School.

The purpose of the Biology Club is to promote research in all branches of Biology, and to this end weekly meetings are held every Wednesday evening in Gaston Hall. At the.se meetings members of the Club are expected to report on papers of Biological interest which appear in current journals, and also to present original papers, and to listen to papers offered by lecturers in\'ited by the Chancellor and President of the Club.

Since its foundation the Biological Club has earned for itself the well-merited distinction of being the most regular extra-curriculum student activity on the Hilltop, liecause not one meeting in its twelve years of existence has ever been omitted for any reason whatsoever.

The membership of the Club includes the Freshman and Sophomore Classes of the Pre-Medical Courses, and also those Juniors and Seniors in the College who chose Biology as an elective preparatory to Medicine.

A feature of the Club, not to be found in other student organizations, is the annual reunion picnic and field day. This celebration is held during the latter part of the month of May. In the morning there are athletic contests between the Freshmen and Sophomores, the most hotly contested being the Tug-of-War, in which the Reverend-Chancellor casts aside, for the time being, his Professorial dignity, and assumes the burden of the Freshmen in the attempt to dislodge the Sophs. This contest might well be called the most purely unprofessional and enthusiastic athletic endeavor in which any university student could enter. The Sophomores have lost with such regularity during the past years that it is becoming a tradition that the presence of the Chancellor, in the ranks of their opponents, is very disquieting and disastrous to their morals.

One duty remains, the election of officers for the coming year. During the past year they were:

The ^y)(Cask and bauble Qlub ';

H E important place of dramatics in the acti\'ities at (jeorgetown has been firmly guarded by The Mask and Bauble Club. The main object of this institution has been to produce the classics; and, naturally, its productions have been largely from Shakespeare. The Club was founded in 1820 and made its entry into the dramatic

world with "Julius Ctcsar" in 1821. The Class of 1925 arrived at Georgetown in time to take part in the anni­

versary production of the great Roman tragedy. The Class of 1925 was well represented in the cast of "Julius Caesar" and made a particular impression in the "Mob." This famous rabble, entirely composed of the Class of '25, was unusually commended by every dramatic critic in the x'icinity for its dash and spontaneity, and the "well-ordered disorder," which is seldom, if ever, correctly portrayed on the professional stage.

In 1923, "The Merchant of Venice" was most successfully portrayed. The Class of 1925 took a prominent part in this production. Nineteen twenty-four witnessed "Hamlet," most difficult of all Shakespeare's plays handled with pro­fessional ease.

It now fell to the Class of 1925 to take up the great work of its predecessors. It began by departing slightly from the path of the classics, .so ably trod in the past, and produced, under the capable direction of Mr. .'\rthur White, the famous Broadwav comedv, " It I-'avs to Adxertise."

[92]

The enthusiasm which only college life can give was generously thrown into this portrayal, and the coaches and cast were amply rewarded by the vigorous applause of four packed houses and the sincere prai.se of every newspaper in Washington. The ability displayed by William J. Kalt, '25; Thomas Loughlin, '26; and Paul A. Lyons, '28, was a re\'elation to all who witnessed the play. Mr. Lyons, '28, taking the part of the wily French Countess, astonished exeryone by the best impersonation of a female character seen in Washington in many years.

It was only because of the mid-v'ear examinations, which closely followed the play, that it was not taken on the road. The production marked a new era in the history of the Mask and Bauble Club. For the first time since before the War, the Club was able to produce more than one play a year, and, encouraged by success, plans are being made to increase the number considerably.

The chief production of the season, however, is Shakespeare's Henry I\', which, at the time of writing, is being rehearsed and gi\'es promise to uphold the high reputation of the organization. Mr. Charles B. Hanford, an actor of renown, has been engaged to coach the players, and is confident that they will meet with unprecedented success.

Although no one-act plays have been produced as yet, due to the infancy of the organization, great things are expected of it. The society forms a Unit of the American Drama League, and is one of the regular subscribers to the "little theatre" program.

Qlothes Fake The ^y^ftan

HE scene is Peacock Alley, where only the elite, the fabulously rich, the ultra refined dare present themselves. Our hero is that hand­some young man over there on the luxurious couch, talking earnestly to his pretty companion. Jove, he looks fine ! ! ! See the faultless

attire: the wing collar, the immaculate shirt, the spats, the magnificent scarf. Curious, I stroll over and take a chair near them. A few minutes pass while I study him and try to catch his words. Georgetown, did he say? Yes, he is a new man at Georgetown—must be a Freshman. He is talking of the next Prom, and I heard him say something about football schedule, and now he's telling her how well he did at bridge this afternoon. If I were only a man like that.

The next morning I saw him at the Hill-Top; his clothes rendered me speech­less; I could only look foolish and pass in reverent silence. I never saw a slip-over like that one—those socks, those knickers, that belt, those shoes, that pipe. Talk about the Pharisee and the Publican—that boy is apart from the rest of men and no mistake. What must he think of me who would make bold to glance upon him? Some irresistible force draws me back; I turn and I follow him—I feast m y eyes upon him. Is his name Finchley, is it Warren, is it Peet, Brooks, Brisk? He takes a Tareyton from a dazzling case; he lights, he smokes—O, Ye Gods, is there no word, no word to express his manner; can I say only "non-chalant?" H o w unhappy the poverty of the language! Alas, I must leave—I must break off the sweet contemplation, for the class bell is ringing and cuts m y very soul with its unfeeling insistence.

Time passes, and each day I treat myself to a look, admiring, adoring. I find his name—it is Kingsbury, a noble name, a name he does credit to.

* * * I happened one day to be walking very close to him in the hall, and these words stormed m y ear drums: "Yep, there ain't nothin' I can't do. They flunked me In all but one of me subjects, but them things don't worry me a bit."

I looked at him—he was laughing—a loud laugh that spoke an empty mind.

R. O. T. C. BATTALION

%. 0. T. C |NE of the most

important events

during our first

days at George­

town was the enrollment in

the R. O. T . C. unit, then

under the command of Major

Hobson. After a few weeks

of preliminary training the

unit rounded into shape so

well, the authorities decided

to stage a sham battle, which

was witnessed by m a n y

notable personages.

On November 11th of that

year, the unknown soldier

was buried in Arlington

Cemetery and it was the

privilege of the unit to

march in the parade. The

World War leaders took part

in the ceremonies, and it was

an exceptional honor for the

unit to represent the other

R. O. T. C. units of the

country. Shortly afterward

Marshall Foch paid us the

distinguished honor of

visiting Georgetown, and the unit acted as Guard of Honor, during his stay

on the Hilltop.

During our Freshman Year we are instructed by Major Hobson, Captain

Bergin and Captain McCord.

Our second year found us in an enthusiastic mood. W''e were instructed in

the use of the bayonet, in tactics of musketry and the duties of non-coms. About

the saddest thing on the program that year was the drawing of contours.

Our class was of good size, when the inspecting officer reviewed the unit in

spring. W e had been well-prepared and drilled, and it is with pride and exultation,

we as a class point to the part we played in the splendid exhibition and review,

which culminated our efforts for the season.

The year was started auspiciously by having the entire advance course unit outfitted with new officer's uniforms. The first public appearance in the uniforms was made in the parade in Baltimore at the opening of the new stadium.

After a few weeks of preliminary training the permanent cadet officers and non-coms for the unit were appointed and the platoons and companies organized. William C. Saffrans, '24, was made Cadet Major; Joseph B. Brennan, '25, Cadet First Lieutenant; Joseph J. Higgins, '24, Captain and Supply Officer; James E. Russell, '24; John F. McGowan, '24, and James H.

Under capable cadet officers the unit was soon up to the high standard set in previous years and all were working hard that Georgetown might be selected as a "Distinguished College" by the inspecting officers at the end of the year.

In our special work under Captain Bergin we took up the Infantry weapons, the machine guns, mortar, grenades and one pounders. After preliminary instructions in taking down and setting-up the machine guns, we could be heard many times firing at the targets on the hillside. In our course in Stokes Mortar guns we would fire the mortars from one hill and then run over to the other to see what damage had been done. Our training with grenades and one-pounders was limited because of the danger of firing these weapons. W e also had a course in trench building.

three weeks later for a six weeks' course of training at Camp Meade.

Returning to college in .September, the Cadet Officers appointed were

Cadet Major Joseph E. Brennan, '25; Cadet Captain and .Adjutant Charles

Perlitz, Cadet Captains J. Herbert Walsh, Edward Brooks, Frank Murray and

Edward De Castro. A machine gun unit was started this year, making a complete

battalion of Infantry.

When the battalion received sufficient training, we had the pleasure of being

reviewed by Father Lyons, President of the University; Fathers Gallagher and

[ 107 ]

THE UNIVERSITY BAND

Walsh. Later we were reviewed by Brigadier-General Samuel D. Rochenback,

Commandant of the District of Washington. Just before the snow began to fall, we witnessed a demonstration on Varsity

Field, given by the Model Platoon, from the 12th Infantry. Colonel Conrad S. Bakock, was present.

Captain Lowery was our class officer for the final year. W e studied Military tactics, specializing in the conduct of the platoon in action and on advance or retreat formations, following this with the study of marches.

During the year, we took up Military History. Studying tactics used the

United States Army in past wars.

EDGEWOOD ARSENAL

At Edgewood Arsenal, some of the members of the present Senior Class got their first taste of army life. Dick Homan, Jack Joyce and Joe Brennan are the still present members of that great vanguard of the Battle of Edgewood. The others were Jake Reilly, T o m m y Haywood, Pete Stewart and Julie Cromelin. These four had a great deal to do with our success there, and we wish they could

be present at the final inspection. The Georgetown men qualified in marksmanship, one hundred per cent,

placing them at the head of the camp. But they were in the lead in more ways than one: First in the mess hall, last out, and then to Mendohlssons for a steak dinner and a couple of cans of peaches for the boys back in camp.

[108]

CAMP DEVENS

All of us have read the successes of Captain Kidd and the deeds of Diamond Dick, but neither of them compare with the exploits of the Irish (as we were called) in their six weeks at Ayer.

To acquaint the reader with the deeds of some it would be well to post the roster as it appeared in the 13th Infantry files and in the mind of Captain Bond.

Brooks, first on roll; first in camps, records of pistol experts. Doran, Second because he won his expert badge a week after Eddie. Gaffey, Gubber, hard luck champion, drew guard duty after hiking fourteen

miles.

Joyce, upheld our social standing by winning a girl the Harvard boys were strong for.

Mannion, Bill had more company jobs than the rest of us put together. Minihan, Jerry proved that all army men don't have to ride a horse, by

preferring guard duty to such a risk. Murray, Frank had the courage to ride, and succeeded in emulating the

Prince of Wales. St. Onge. Vic was the only man that rode a mule to and from the outposts.

The only one who ever chased a mule along the firing post, while the firing was in full sway.

Tavlin, Dave had an uncanny sense of getting in and out of the mess-hall (after hours).

At any rate we certainly got a fine roasting, as we were met by the gang, in our officer's uniforms that fitted some one else fine. None of the gang will forget the night our beds were piled up in the corner of the barracks. Water splashed plentifully that night. A few were forced to sleep in wet beds. However, when the squad was reorganized they were found to be "all dry."

A story of events would be incomplete without a story of our wonderful team—Brooks, Gaffey, Murray and Mannion. With only four men we placed in every event. Murray won the 880 and tied Harvard in the 220. Gaffey won the century. Brooks finished .second in the half-mile and second in the discus. Mannion got fourth. Brooks finished up by winning the mile. Our relay team, without Gaffey, who was taken ill suddenly, finished second in this race to Vermont, and also second in the meet.

C a m p ended on the 26th of July and we left much better soldiers. W e learned that an army camp is an ideal place to spend a vacation and an excellent place to learn to give and take a command, a quality that will assist us in any walk of life we may later pursue.

CAMP MEADE

To those who were detailed to Camp Meade for training, a lasting and pleasant remembrance will ever be our heritage of that period. It was there that most of us came to really understand, and appreciate the high ideal that should ever actuate the conduct of an officer.

[109]

From the moment of our arrixal, when we were greeted by a staff of physicians to determine our fitness, to the moment we grasped the certificate that bore testimony to the fact that our training was successfully completed, we were e\'er

learning entirely different from anything we had heretofore experienced. Following a course in rifle marksmanship, machine gunnery, and howitzers,

a short time was spent on musketry. .At the completion of this course the remain­der of the training period was de\'oted to a stud\' of leadership of troops in action,

together with a superficial knowledge of engineer and artillery activity. During this period we witnessed a demonstration of tanks in attack preceded by an

illustrated lecture of the use of these weapons. At this time, also, x'arious engineer demonstrations were gi\-en. Shorth' before our training period drew to a close, a demonstration was gixen embracing, Infantr\', Ca\'alr\', .Artiller\' and Engineer, in combat.

Interest manifested by the Georgetown men was great and their ri-cord enviable indeed. The spirit of lo\'alty to school and unit was unsurpassed by any unit in C a m p Meade. But the period of training was not without its moments of amusement and relaxation. What one of us is not familiar with " C o m e and get it," or who has forgotten " E\'es off the ground," "dirty gun," and the numerous threats of fatigue duty. And then, the week ends in Washington.

It is only with a feeling of joy, that we look back, because the salient tales are not the arduous duties that occupied us during the sultry hours of the day, but rather the pleasant recollection of the amusing incidents and diverting social and athletic activities, the Friday night dances and the moonlight sail on the Chesapeake.

WILMER AND JUSSERAND

Dr, William Hollander Wilmer Nor Mars his sword nor war's quick fire shall burn

The living record of your memory. 'Gainst death and all-oblivious enmity Shall you pare forth; your praise shall still find room Even in lire eyes of all posterity.

SHAKESPEARE, SONNETS, L V .

ECENTLY the French Government took occasion to confer on Dr. William Holland Wilmer the rank of Commander of the Legion of Honor, the highest recognition of loyalty and distinguished service that it can bestow. Dr. Wilmer's war record began when he-was

commissioned as officer in charge of the Medical Research Laboratories at Mineola, Long Island, where he served until August, 1918. H e was then transferred to France as Surgeon-Director of the Medical Research Laboratories with the American Expeditionary forces which post he held until the clost of the war. There are many glorious achievements interwoven in this period of service. As in other branches of the profession, many unique discoveries concerning the affections of the eye and their treatment, stand out as a result of the late war.

The tenor of scientific advancement is a slow one, building up gradual addi­tions, proceeding quietly from one field to the unexplored realms of another, but occasionally we find in history an age characterized by vast strides. The fact is that the spirit of the broody conflict fostered scientific achievement, especially along the lines of medicine and surgery, wherein numerous manifestations and immense potentialities were created to the view of the surgeon-physician for the first time so to gi\'e an understanding of their nature and subsequent success in their correction, pre\'ention or suppression, as the case might be. In such aspect the progress in ophthalmic research stands out as preeminently as any. And for it is due some measure of individuality to our distinguished Professor of Ophthalmology. Stories have come from every quarter relating how his efforts have dispersed the darkness that characterized the science itself, and rescued from Stygian depths of impending blindness the future of many war-seared souls. With the passing of the war-clouds, Georgetown conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Laws. His country rewarded him with the Distinguished Service Medal, and now France commemorates his work on her soil with her finest token of appreciation.

With us, Dr. Wilmer has established a wide and enduring claim to our remembrance. In teaching the principles and practice of his art, he lived in closest intercourse possible between professor and student, utilizing his precious time to enrich our abilities at every opportunity, that we might, in his own words, "take up the race where he left off and go farther with the baton in the human service." Nothing could be worthier of a man's ambition and should we con­tribute but a portion of the good that has been his, we would indeed merit of our Alma Mater.

2^/7/ on The ffves of y^en HE middle of the nineteenth century recorded in national history

the discovery of gold in California and in Georgetown, foundation of the College of Medicine. The events notable in the interim of then and now of the latter, are known perhaps to a scattered few, and not surprising for numerous biographies epochal in the evolution of

Medicine are forever lost in oblivion. Posterity purposes to enscroll the great, yet some escape, and sometimes of their choosing. But they breathe, with the influence of their ideals, and live more vividly than sculpture can depict in ore or marble.

W e are thoroughly conversant with the happenings of the gold rush period, can perhaps quote poetry on national events subsequent, but after four years intimate life in the medical school, there are among us departing with their need, many to w h o m the name of Charles Liebermann conveys nothing. It might earn a knitted brow or a shoulder shrug, but scarcely more. Our ignorance costs us nothing for in taking our doctorate, unconsciously we carry with it, the ideals that prompted Liebermann, ophthalmologist, in 1850 to organize with Young, Howard and Eliot, the institution of our Alma Mater. The story of their endeavors to propagate medical knowledge weeks of difficult labor and sacrifice extending over generations, for as men their limited existence did not span the realization of their fondest hopes. Possessed with the right to succor the ill they were discontent to pause there, but as builders and students of scientific count, persevered in execution of a precious trust. It is a story characterized by cherished standards, an humble start and faith. It's advances have been leadening slow and proportioned with travail. . . but its harvest has been prolific and wondrous.

Our day stands on the horizon, realistically clearer than ever before, in that expansion and improvement are capital. Consistent with progress, new buildings loom in accommodation of new fields of work; there is, transcending the low-ceilinged lecture halls, spacious laboratories and modern invention, yet the (vis a tergo) is identical with the impetus that had its inception in that small group of pioneers dominant with courage and perspective in the face of foreseen obstacles in their adamant determination to teach the art of healing, deterents of burden and sacrifice notwithstanding. The spark of Liebermann has grown to flames, tonguing the near and far. And wherein hides the fuel that has enabled such energy to long endure? All about her who cater to like ambition have felt the ancillary abettment of afiHuence. N o gifts of consequence have ministered to her growing needs. Yet perhaps, after all, it is the silent influence of her founders, whose images grace the niche in Senior Hall divorcing them from com­plete oblivion. The character of their deeds we know not, yet the\' hint of pristine glory and achievement. And to that niche, a score or more years unstinted service, recently have added Magruder and Baker. The future beckons to the roster of their ilk, Kober, Vaughan, Moran and Adams, and others in potetia.

Lords now of the history surveyed, we are afforded the inestimable adxantage of direct and simple means in governing perspective. There is no better way to live one's life than study the lives of others, and for lives and ideals Hippocratic we need not wander far from home. Remember as you go, "I am a part of all that I have met," and that the reason that the fire endureth, is, great universities are built on the lives of men.

History of the Qlass of icj2S

School of Medicine

N relating the past, it necessarily follows, as the night does the day, that sorrow and misfortune are intermingled with joy and achieve­ment. Rare, indeed, is the man who can boast of emerging from the hallowed walls of a medical school without first having experienced many a heart throb and that stifling state known as mental anguish. It

often gives one great satisfaction to know that this is part and parcel of his medical education. Could we, as future physicians ha\'e a practical concept of physical pain, mental conflict, or material loss resulting in physical or mental disability, if we had not often borne the experience ourselves? .Suffering and harships mellow the personality. Happily, by this time we all realize that a sympathetic nature, combined with skill and judgment are indispensable attributes of one of God's noblemen. The background of hardwork and strixing were not always sombre, but contrariK', brilliantly colored with more pleasant things. In the beginning, for instance to answer one of Father's Tondorf questions correctly in quiz was enough to throw an embryo medico into ectasies of joy. Likewise, passing examinations and successfully completing the year's work won satis­faction to the honest toiler and neutralized those little incidents which were otherwise repugnant but necessary in clearing those obstacles which at times seemed insurmountable. .And again, in the last year, who among us has not already, due to his own feeble efforts, felt that thrill and curious satisfaction of actually seeing an asphyxiated new born babe gasp for the first life breath, and

[129]

live? Is this alone not enough to compensate us for our little sacrifices and inconveniences?

As I look back upon the past four years, it strikes me after close scrutiny, that our class history has resolved itself into one of personalities. When George­town Medical College opened her doors to the Cla.ss of 1925 she received men from over the country, but the majority issued from her own college and from Fordham. The first year activities were inaugurated by the election of James Costello as President of the Class. This boy from the District wherein they have "taxa­tion without representation " fulfilled his duties in a manner worthy of our praise. The Freshman Year progressed nicely until we lost our dear classmate, Eugene Neary. His sterling qualities, ready smile and warm heart will always be remem­bered, though he has passed to eternal rest.

Sophomore presented us with three hurdles: Physiology, Anatomy and Pharmacology, each having as its active principle. Father Tondorf, Dr. Madigan and Dr. Gapen, respectively. What a race there was, not to mention the elimina­tion trials? Though characterized by difficulties, we now realize the advantages accruent from the zeal of these professors. N o one envied Arthur Daugherty's position as President in a year, when a fellow's ambition was mainly hidden by a most exacting post requiring diplomacy par excellence, and was well executed.

When we were admitted into the comparatively bright and refreshing Junior state, we began to resume our normal attitude again; it was the beginning of a much needed convalescence. Men began to know one another better; to make what had heretofore been acquaintances, close and lasting friendships. Here we encountered the magnetic personality of our friend. Dr. Gannon, our first lecturer in Surgery. From him we have learned a great deal. Dr. Prentiss Willson was the premier lecturer, in Obstetrics. Pleasant memories recall the practicality and manliness of Dr. Mattel, the wisdom of Dr. O'Donoghue, the erudition of Dr. Foote, and the philanthropy and humanitarian endeaxors of our beloved Dean Dr. Kober. Karl Kreag administered the direction of the class most efficiently, and I am certain that m y classmates support me unanimously when I take this opportunity of conveying our gratitude in recognition of his services as spokesman. Toward the close of the semester Dr. Kober announced the establishment of the Kober Foundation of Hygiene, a medal to be gixen each year for the post-graduate student attaining distinction in that field of endea\'or. The much coveted Senior Year found Roy B. Mahoney as president, wading through a turbulent sea of trouble, attempting to arrange clinics and in the capacity of mediator in many instances.

Dr. William Holland Wilmer in whom we take great pride as our Professor of Ophthalmology was singularl\' honored by the French Go\'ernment for dis­tinguished ser\'ices during the World War. Later we presented him with a testimonial in appreciation of his many kindnesses, and, he added at least five years to our dignity when he addressed us as "his colleagues." Father Walter Summers, S.J., succeeded Father Tondorf who devoted many \'ears to the development of the Medical .School, as Regent and Professor of Physiology. .Scholastically, the year has been well rounded out by the master. Dr. (leorge Tull>' \'aughaii. All Georgetown medical graduates will swear by him. He has keen surgical judgment, skill and experience, reinforced with the rare abilit\' to impart knowledge. Dr. Samuel S. Adams, has e\'er been our champion and defender and we will carry away much of his sound principles and practice. In Obstetrics, we can ne\'er disregard the profound influence, of Dr. John F. Moran, who despite ill health always managed to assure and encourage us in our some­what unconversant efforts. There have been a host of others, likewi.se, to whom we are much indebted but circumstances prexent their mention here. W e must be content with rendering them our esteem and executing their valuable teachings. Ideals such as theirs cannot be passed ON'er in \ain.

Junior Qlass History

(Medicine)

H E Fall of 1922 witnessed a sheepish congregation seething with

curiosity. The little group were appraising the architecture of the

administration building on H Street, wondering what its four walls

held for them. Then, with undaunted enthusiasm they entered the

portals fee ing quite safe in the security of their armementaria of pads, books and

papers. The first lecture, however, con\'eyed to them the necessity of interring

forever the collegiate non-chalance that reciuired years in its establishment. It

was supplanted by the desire and will to work. There was no doubt about

this admonition. They did not question that it would be enforced. Precursory

biology days warranted that. And so they began. Nine o'clock in the morning

with Dr. Hird brought about unfolding of bio-cheniical .secrets as manifested in the color of the test-tube reaction. Then the .Anatomy laboratory whose ever

unaffected affability holds an inexplicable attraction to the no\'ice.

Under Dr. Madigan 's circulating guidance you begin your exploration of

the skin and its contents. Geograjihictil excursions with a scalpel tuid for the first

few days an inevitable anorexia around noon-tinic. 4 hc noon-hour was spent in

[144]

casual appraisal of how the present gaff presaged your going to .see at sixty. But

we come to our senses—one o'clock, the lower amphitheatre and Dr. Norris

trying his best to set us right on the body functions. Then Histology, slides,

specimens and stains, and five o'clock. This daily, then our marks; disillusion­

ment the result of applying your laws of expectancy.

Time and work had made Sophomores of us. W e possess mingled pride and

joy as we greeted our classmates and professors. The buoyant spirit is short-lived

though, for we are submerged in more work than ever before. Dr. Madigan

shows greater potentialities than we thought of anatomy last year. He advertised

for typists and had many responses for the position of corpse-liearers. The

mysteries of the antics of frogs under digitalis, spartein, and plain water will

ever remind us of pharmacological days. Retracings of grams. Iniperturbility.

Plenty of weights. As we finished the examinations we confided in each other

the hope that the good ship Junior would not passed us up. And now that we

have been rescued from the wilds of .Sophomore, we feel that we overestimated

the satiety of our present state. Work abounds more than ever before, but too,

more interesting. The tangibility of medicine, the spectacles of surgery, the

miracle of obstetrics, all these are magic to us. The year is almost spent and as

the examinations approach we manifest our sincere hope that -Senior will look

kind upon us and adopt us to her bosom fold.

Sophomore Qlass History

Reflections of a Sophomore

^FTER nearly two years of the study of medicine, there is recognized

generalK' among us the pursuit of medicine requires nearh' all the

time that can be given it. It has been in our case, this year particu-

larK', the subordination of all else. This fact was not with us always;

it came slowK'. Looking back, we remember that e\'entftil da\', September 26,

1924, when we gathered here for the first time, each with his definite objecti\'e

and particular ideal. Freedom from worr\' characterized us in sharp contrast

to the attitude of men who had lieen whetted to the grind. The first few davs

passed uneventfully, and without full realization of what la\' ahead.

Our first class meeting manifested a welded determiiuition and upon its

adjournment, we figured as an organized entity, we were impenetrable. The

passage of time, however, really demonstrated how weak the battlefront reallv

was. Troubles began to creep upon us in rapid succession, producing furrowed

foreheads which fond folk intimated as bctraving intense worr\'. Our \'iew of

life and things began to change somewhat. The weight of years seemed added

with each new responsibility. It marked the climacteric, that part in the medical

I 14S ]

student's evolution wherein he starts to realize the seriousness of his pursuit,

when his boyish prepossessions and overexuberance must yield to grim determina­

tion to survive, when reason dictates and inwardly confides in spite of all dis­

couragement that others have trodden likewise and successfully, when his mental

conflict is mastered by a decision that pertinacity and hope are the means of surest victory.

Scholastically our progress was extremely slow; what had previously seemed

most interesting now warranted a monotonous view. The glamour had worn off

and with its wearing, our efforts seemed grotesquely impossible yet never did we

give up in despair, for ever looming up was the history of others having weathered

the storm. Homeopathic encouragement, but it served us well. It stimulated

the cupidity for knowledge, a cupidity that was insatiate with huge draughts,

but those dispensing were not uncharitable. For, saturation with fact and theory

became so evident that we must admit intellectual inebriation, sin or no sin.

The index of absorption was correspondingly high for the fine Spring days suc­

ceeded winter, and with the advent of the cherry blossoms we entertained hope.

The atmosphere seemed surcharged with inspiration to work. Preparation and

review held sway. And then came the examinations, came the element of waiting

for the results of the examinations, came the word—"success."

Came September, 1925, and Sophomore. The self-appraised importance of

our scholastic progression, implied not altogether an unprofessional air. W e

greeted one another; .some of the old faces were missing. W e were soon, however,

acquainted with our new work, and readily came to a full understanding why this

year had been charted "the hurdles." The race is the same as last year. Occa­

sionally we step out in the glamour of the social whirl in effort to break the

monotony, but we must, athletic like observe the rules of the game, lest we

jeopardize our chances. The goal is now within sight, the time is Spring, the

examinations are pending—but what the future history of the class will be: Well, who can say?

Freshman Qlass History (Medicine)

OMEONE made a wise crack about history 's propensities toward repe­tition. There is no more proof needed than is shown in the chronicle of classes in medicine. The histories of all classes run pretty much alike, especially the Freshman history. There's hardly any to begin with and what there is no one usually reads, because the classes

whose seniority warrants their history being placed before ours, have told you all about, or what there is known about Freshman Medics. So I refuse to repeat.

However the Class of 1928 is characterized by some things the other classes can't steal. Like other classes we lost our individualism by displa>'ing enough interest to hold a class meeting. But regained it, when we elected Joseph J. Hourigan of Oswego, New York, as our president and up to the present he has been functioning very efffciently. W e feel we have the loyalty and cooperation of our members, and one look at our class picture will impress you that means something. W e are plodding along nicely, keeping our powder dry, and burning the midnight oil.

There is one thing which we must indite and that is the incident of losing our cherished friend and Instructor in Anatomy, Dr. John J. Shrugrue, who goes to accept a Fellowship in Surgery at the Mayo Clinic. He leaves us with many happy memories and we hope much success shall crown his ambitions. .At the same time we extend a welcome to his successor. Dr. Yesco. W e are now ready to break the thread, for having written of our ambitions, we look to the future with "Spe et labore."

The Medical %^ 0. T. Q. HE medical unit of the Reserve Officers Training Corps was instituted

at Georgetown in the Fall of 1921, under the direction of Major Raymond C. Bull, U. S. A. The work comprises a basic course of lectures and demonstrations in military science and tactics during the first two years, an advance course of lectures in Junior and Senior,

supplemented by six weeks of intensive training at a summer camp. On completion of these requirements, the student is gi\'en a commission of

F"irst Lieutenant in the Medical Officers Reserve Corps. For the past two years the direction of the unit has been under Major John J. Madigan, M.C., U. S. A., a Georgetown graduate who succeeded Major Bull. Major Madigan has made the course very interesting, and due to his pleasing personality and continuous efforts to introduce the latest features of military and scientific pursuit, it has acquired an increasing popularity.

Those who receive commissions in the Reserve Corps this June are: Harold R. Cronin, James R. Costello, P. F. DeCarlo, Karl A. Kreag, John J. Lynch, Thomas E. O'Brien, William J. Van Wie. Hospital appointments are as fol­lows: Robert A. Bier, Bennie A. Moxness and William E. Shambora assigned to Fitzsimmons Hospital, Denver, Colorado; Michael F.

^ Qlinic in P^niniscences IR THOMAS BROWNE, an erudite dfsciple of Hippocrates once

wrote, "the iniquity of oblivion blindly scattereth her poppy, and deals with the memory of men without distinction to merit of per­petuity." So tochiN' I choose as the subject of our final clinic that section of the brain which deals in the reminiscent. Pre\'ious exhibi­

tion of these ca.ses does not warrant your appraising them with homeopathic estimate, else you suffer me to remind you that though the years potential will hold much work for you, if you would remain rational throughout you must exhibit some index of mental buoyancy. And in seeking it, bear you in mind that bottles with con\'i\'ial aspects, predispose to Korsakow's psychoses. Rather, if I may suggest, a more legal port of ha\'en from the consuming sea of ennui, is ever at your service, in the memories of the days which are now about to end.

.As a medical class you are marked by certain overt acts and instances— though nothing epochal can be predicated of you. There have been for no reason other than the time of their occurrence marked high tide in the stream of your mental recepti\'eness, cases which will remain indelibly written in your con-\'olutioiiary makeup. .Some are inten.sely productive of jo\'ousness, others may require adornment with an occasional tear, but they are part and parcel of the life that has been yours in the classroom and out during your apprenticeship to ^tscalapius. A es sir, Mr. Lynch, I am always glad to answer questions. He was the God of Medicine, mythological personage of course.

Now to continue this clinic's raison d 'etre. I am confident these phenomena will survive the gags of raccoon coats and painted ladies; they may e\'en have their place if you are destined in days to come to don the mantle of pedagogy, when with characteristic sapient attitude you shall begin, " N o w when I was a student." Let the mircale of the memory take you back four years. "Friend, you '11 never electrify the world that way, divest yourself of knickers, forget spires and gargoyles, the anatomy laboratory is upstairs to the right. I am the apostle of John Hunter, men of 3'our genre amuse me by the inaccuracy of their aim, so I caution you to shoot straight. Pardon me for flunking you this month, but m y province requires a white coat. Another pail of that solution, Mr. Mattingly, please. . . . and the co\'ers, snugly. Beans, bread and coffee at the Star Lunch. One o 'clock is here, you may tell us the percentage of polymorphonuclears but please leave out the personal element. Isn't that clear?

W e '11 make cold cream today, but don 't worry about the course, physiology 's the big thing. And then histology, our metier. H o w we loved the jingoism of "what is a cell?" It came quite natural, but things like alcaptonuria stumped you. There wasn 't much question but the Freshman item was rather theoretical, but it broadened \'our perspective, nevertheless.

Historically, and from small discussions Sophomore was lurking with mirages and pitfalls imminent. There was the joie de \'ivre compared with Freshman, the appraisal of predecessors not withstanding. The short lived optimism, the optimism that would have doubtless sur\'ived had it not lieen for the impromptu recitals which were intended to extract whether or no we were grasping things. " N o w gentlemen, I QUIZZ, down in the lower amphitheatre without the notes" and "Deploy" were grating to one who was riveted in sense of attachment to the belief that all examinations should be preceded by systematic preparation. Confusion began to alter technique. Glass slides managed somehow, despite nicety of manipulation to abandon their continuity by falling hard and often, provoking symptoms of shock in the transgressor, and comnientarily, "Taurine visitor in a china shop" from the vicinity of the autoclave. Around half after

[155]

four one could not, much to his shame, appreciate the philanthropy of a stolen egg and the subsequent embroglio that might threaten domestic tranquillity. The virtue of perserverance however had its own reward in that we did not quote anyone, kept clear of the movies, learned not to laugh at the stimulus antics in a nerve fibre, won money by saying "isso-late." Thus passed the days of the column reserved for Lew, the mystery of the kennel, Joe Gloom and the lectures from the dais whereon some Dent deigned to drink his Postum, the quizzes that were identified by a fat cigar and punctiform, "What that, that, that." But its all a necessary part of the evolution of a neophyte.

August Seniority, that coveted goal at last. But alas and alack! Insatiate! The goal ahead, steam on friend, it is most perilous to rest your oars. Talk on hospitals, first-raters, good payers, coziness about appointments. Oodles of correspondence swelling the mails, the army and the na\'\' forexer or not at all. "I hear that you're going to interne at." Engaging information and repartee: "You are misinformed."

It is a year of cases. Cases to the right of you, cases to the left of you. A Caseyous degeneration, this morning in the attendance. Let's ha\-e the next case. All right, the patient's name, Montgf)mery Cohen, Irish. H o w are you this morning snakebite. N o w see here mam, when are you going to put this boy in the hospital? Remember he'll cuss you out when he's a man. Open that bloomin' window, its too hot for the lady. N o w this case reminds me of the time I was in Menna with m y good friend Rasminster. I had another patient in m y office yesterday similarly afflicted from New York, and you'll see plenty of them. That's a pterygeriuni. Take a look. .Ah ! another limeburn. Darkies you know, working about a kiln. Alright NO. twenty-seven, five times a day. Hot aps. You have boric acid at home? Don't neglect to come back Tuesday. Well, wait until I see him, he told me you knew all about prescription writing. Send me in a nurse, please. N o w Mr. Moxness I want you to give full instructions to this young lady for the care of this patient. That .sound textbookish huh anyone can whoop, listen to me whoop. Here I am with both radials cut, what are you going to do about it? Too late friend, I 'in dead! Does anyone here know of the Index Medicus? By Jove! what appalling ignorance. I've made gallons and gallons of it at Harvard. .Now see heah, train or no train, I'm goin' to stay here until I drive this home. D'yah understand it, well thank heaven, now I can go to New York in peace.

Sometimes I find it necessary to interpolate m y clinic with an occasional story, and if you ever teach you will too, especially when your tautological endeavors are punctuated by very disturbing yawns which occurring in you men of prognathous mandibularity, remind me of m y visit to the Grand Canvon of the Colorado.

.Speaking of vacations, when I was in A'erniont at a golden wedding celebration an old couple overestimated m y gullibility when they told of their marital history being devoid of occasional pyrotechnics . . . I did not say anything then, but I did commit myself while returning in m y buggy. No, get out of here now, I tell \'ou the marks are not in, can't a fellow eat his lunch in peace? I bet you ha\'en't your tuition paid. Giff to me, eggsilla mesialwards? you better take two quarters about the same size, and find it posteriorly on the back. The lady happened to be a pianist, fingers and keys. There are other things in the box too, but the trouble, now tell me all aliout it. What you 've gone on this far and don 't know what its all abtnit? Disconnected? Don't say that, remember this is a clinic of reminiscences. I won 't call the roll this morning—I haven 't m y rollbook with me. But I 'II turn in the post-card, for " there is a (li\init\' that shapes your ends rough hew them how you may." Keys, invitations, June—and then the valedictor\'.

Joseph .Augustus, from the land of rocks and radicals, has the honor of being the Wisconsin Law Club; the other member left school early. His aptitude for legal work should carry him far; his knowledge of accountancy will be useful. Good luck Joe. There's al--ay-s room at the top.

PROVIDENCE, R. I.

Delta Chi Fraternity, President; Rhode Island Law Club 1, 2; Llamilton Law Club; Senior Debating Society; Vice-President, Freshman Class.

The activities al)o\-e noted bespeak the character of the man. Joe is an organizer, a mixer and a go-getter.

Our friend "Pat" of "class ring" fame came to (Georgetown from the famous "Buckeye State" with the set purpose of acquiring the law. While at school Pat has made a most enviable record, and has gathered such a knowledge of the law, that in tin)e to come (Georgetow-n w-ill be mighty proud of him.

"Herlock Sholmes," the Perth's representative in the nation's capital! He hasn't missed a trick at Georgetown and we are au­thority for the statement that he will not miss any w-hen he leaves. W e all expect "Bob" to bring the bacon home.

JOSEPH B. HARLACHER

Brick's time at Georgetown has been marked by steady steps forw-ard in scholastic and social attainments. He, from the moment of his entrance, has always been a whole­hearted w-orker in everytf)ing that he has undertaken, his determination to succeed is bound to lead him to the top rung of the ladder of succesf.

The capital is certainly losing a social lion and the school a student when graduation sends this fight­ing Hoosier back to the banks of the Wabash. Looks like rough sledding for the Indiana legal lights, Jack.

WILFRED A. HAY

Skipper Hughes, Naval Aviator, Merchant Mariner, Explorer of wild ports, Attorney-at-Law—thy name is versatility.

Paul is a good student but not a book-worm. He never does an\--thing to excess—just enough of everything to be popular with all. Paul isn't real sure, but from his present paper-box associations, in later years, when we w-alk up to his office, w-e'll probably see on the door something like this: Paul M. Jeffrey, Manufacturing At-torne\-.

HENRY JAWISH

Smoker; Ring Committee; Varsity Football 2, 3, .',.

Our friend, "Joe College," has endeared himself to the heart of every member of the class. His huiTior, his joviality, and his perpetual good nature have animated many a drowsy session. In fact, "Joe's" presence alw-ays gives us a certain sense of pleasure. In law as in football "Joe" is destined to be a big success. J. P. JERMAIN

Jonesy is a fellow possessed of a w-onderful personality, which to­gether with the legal Icnow-ledge he had acquired at (Georgetown w-ill win for him a high place in his chosen profession and -will also aid him in -w-inning and keeping—well we won't say what.

JAMES A. JOYCE

PiTTSTON, PA.

Pennsylvania Law Club; World War Veteran.

Joyce is a fellow townsi-nan of Bucky Harris, an incident, w-e are sure Mr. Harris should feel proud of. Jim is one of the cool-calculating crowd. You know "live and let live." Refuses to get excited.

W A R R E N W. JONES

TURTLE CREEK, PA.

.Squire is one of those conscientious students who do more than enough w-ork around election tiine to keep on the political payroll. His career as a law- student has been one blaze of fame and glory, and in that noble profession he hopes to earn an honest dollar with less exertion than he now- expends.

WALTER L. JOYCE

PiTTSTON, PA.

Possessed of a sharp and anylitical mind, Walter has impressed us by his reasoning of the decisions, especially those relating to the Constitution. His w-itticisms can only be equalled by his knowledge of the law in which he is certain of much success.

WALTER KEELEY

WASHINGTON, D. C.

District of Columhio Law Cluh.

"Walt" is a native of the District of Columbia, but aside from that he is a fine fellow and an excellent student. His ambition to become a legal luminary is only surpas.sed by his hard work and application to his studies. H e leaves us with a record of which he may well feel proud, and one upon which we feel assured that he will build a great future.

SAMUEL KAPLAN

WASHINGTON, D. C

Sam holds the long distance championship for going to school, but one would never think it to look at him and listen to him expound the law like Coke used to do in the bygone days.

EDWARD. A. KELLY

TORRINGTON, CONN.

Smoker 1.

After Ed had acquired a basis at Holy Cross and Yale, for his future avocation, he looked toward Georgetown as the fountain-head of those legal principles which are to be his reliance in days to come. W e are profited much from our association with him. It has been a pleasure to know Ed and our parting occasions regret.

LOWELL, MASS.

Massachusetts Law Club; Ju7iior Debating .Society; Prom 3.

This quiet and unassun)ing fellow-will be carried a long way with the ladies by his pleasant smile and gentlemanly conduct. His success in and out of class is a token for future success. If Jim prepares and presents his ca.ses in court as w-ell as he does in school his success is assured.

HARRISON D. KEPLER

NORTHWOOD, IOWA

Kep is a living exen)plification of the saying that natives of the middle west are true and loyal friends, and this without doubt accounts for his many friends. H e has applied himself to the law with an aggressiv-eness that has rewarded him, and w-e wish him happiness in his certain success.

"Kirk" is a good representative student, brilliant and alert, amiable and congenial. Ever willing to lend aid when called upon, and this happened often for, prepared­ness is his motto.

"Kane" has always been a busy sort of a fellow. .At Creighton he was business manager of "The Blue Jay" and "Shadows."

HUNTINGTON, W. VA.

Gamma Eta Gamma.

To come in contact with this personality is to like him, for his silence is of the kind that bespeaks the well bred man. West Virginia is bound to have a congressional representa­tive who will do the people of the state justice, judging from the host of friends that Floyd has made and kept at school.

jlELL, so long fellows. We'\'e come to the parting of the ways, and may the friends we've made in old Georgetown and the memory of their deeds and misdeeds, and they were many, linger in our hearts and minds long after the hustle and bustle of a mercenary world has

asked us to dispel the thought of them as childish. M a y the memory of our proms and smokers live forever, and the practice court and Scruggs, and Jernigan, and our heated political battles. Gene McLaughlin, McKenzie et al, and the meal or two we missed, and we missed a meal or two, and our after prom affairs at Child's, be impressed upon us in a manner, the on-rush of time cannot erase.

So long Red, so long Maroney and Gallagher, and Gharley and Owens. So long McKenna and Hulitt, the greatest combination in Georgetown. Don't forget the "Tux" borrowing expeditions and the conniving to get dates for the proms. And above all, let us never forget our duty to our Alma Mater. M a y the name of Georgetown be written in brazen letters across the pages of the story of our careers, and in the winter of our lives, when we're too old to step out, may the memory of our school days be a tie that binds us, and when they're talking about schools or school days, tell 'em about Georgetown and her loyal sons.

SO LONG FELLOWS

[ '231 ]

Senior J^w Qlass History BOUT one-half of the number who enrolled as freshmen law students

in 1922 have given up the study for the legal profession for other pursuits; the remainder constitute the 1925 candidates for the degree of LL.B.

Our's is one of the largest graduating classes in the history of the school and it is composed of representatives from practically every state in the Union. W e naturally expect that in the future these members will be representing their States on the Bench, in the .State legislature, or in Congress and will be the leaders in their communities.

On our return to school in 1924, after a well-earned rest from our strenuous Junior Year, it was clearly noticeable that the members of the Class of 1925 were in a more serious frame of mind than they had been during the two pre\'ious years. The first evening was one of pleasure to all, it seeming like a reunion of those who were tied together by bonds of sur\'ivorship of the ordeal of the past two years.

The school was formally opened with addresses by President John B. Creeden and by our Dean, George E. Hamilton. The scholastic prizes were presented to the honor men of the various classes, James K. Polk receiving the prize for the highest honors in our class. [The second prize went to C. S. Mann, who modestly f)iiiitted his name.]

W e immediately settled down to serious study, realizing that too much legal knowledge could not be acquired for that supreme test and stumbling block in the lives of all prospective attorneys, i.e. the Bar examination.

1 232 ]

As the time set for the election of class offfcers approached, a growing interest and feeling of excitement was noticeable among the members of the class, partly due to political propaganda and partly to the secret desire of each of us to play a hand in the game of politics.

The veterans of the World War who participated in the battle of Chateau Thierry will look with envy upon this memorable battle which was fought in the Halls of Georgetown. When the smoke had cleared the officers of the class were found to be: Eugene C. McLaughlin, of York, Pa., President; Harney O'Meara, of Butte, Mont., Vice-President; G. C. Burroughs, of Riverdale, Md., Sergeant-at-Arms; Paul H. Madigan, Washington, D. C , Secretary; Leo. C Mascotte, of Anaconda, Mont., Treasurer; and C. S. Mann, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Historian.

Our school term had hardly commenced when it was interrupted by an examination in partnership, which, however, was successfully surmounted by all.

Only too soon after our return from the Christmas vacation the mid-term examinations were upon us. Quaere . . . If we have the legal knowledge necessary to successfully pass such examinations, as these were, why should a small matter like a Bar examination bother any of us?

The Senior Prom was the crowning social event in the history of Georgetown. It was held on F'ebruary 19th, at the Mayflower Hotel, one of the largest and most beautiful hotels of its kind in the world. The well-known A^ncent Lopez and his New York orchestra furnished irresistible music for the dancers. The ladies attending the affair, were presented with silver perfume containers stamped •with the Georgetown .Seal, and these favors added to the magnificence of the occasion. Mr. Cavanaugh, chairman, and the various members of the Prom Committee, should be complimented for arranging this wonderful event.

A spirit of cooperation and deep interest has always been manifested by all the members of our class in the various school activities. Upon numerf)us occa­sions various members of the class have brought honor upon them.selves and their school in debates, athletic contests and other activities.

A'ernon Ascher is the anchor man on the undefeated Georgetown one-mile relay team; McNamey, Farley and Carney, the latter Captain of last year's team, fought for the Blue and Gray on the basket-ball floor. Jim McNamara has been on the A'arsity Football Squad for the past three years. (His greatest accomplishment, however, being the recent acquisition of a soul mate.)

The .Senior .Smoker capped the climax and was a grand finale of our class activities. The occasion speaks for itself and will long be remembered as our last reunion, as a class in dear old Georgetown.

This edition of Ye Domesday Booke is conclusive evidence of the wise selection, unanimously made by the class, of Robert McClellan as Editor-in-Chief and Joseph Spelman as Class Editor.

W e owe to our school and to our professors an inestimable debt for the opportunities which they have afforded to us as students of the law.

The least we can do in repayment is to always uphold the honor of our school and of the legal profession as true Sons of old Georgetown.

Qlass History

of the

Qeorgetowfi ^J^orning Senior Qlass of 1^2 5"

HERE is a peculiar difficulty inherent in the writing of the history of

the Georgetown Senior Law Class of 1925, which lies not so much

in the vastness of academical and social work to be recorded—

although that is a task worthy of extensive consideration—but

rather in the inescapable suggestion which incidentally accompanies it, namely,

that this body is soon to dissolve. Only those who understand that infrangible

bond of union and fraternity forged from true and sterling friendships, which

cause the heart to glow at their merest recollection, can appreciate that which

this humble pen cannot adequately portray. There was jov in that association

"a treasure better than gold." There was happiness and warmth in the solid

friendships evolved which entwine the heart in chords of bli.ss, and serve as an

invaluable repository to which memory will e\'er resort for consolation in the

years to come. They were glorious days, indeed, those spent at Georgetown.

" But fate ordains that dearest friends must part "—yes, and in the consciousness

of that parting there is a tinge of sadness—a tug at the heartstrings.

[ 234 ]

"Well, if—we must—we must and' in that case The less is said the better."

And now let us briefly review the history of this Senior Class.

It was on the 1st of October in the memorable year of 1922 that the com­

ponent parts of our Class assembled, every .State contributing one or more students

as its quota. After the usual bustle and academic anxiety attendant upon such

commencements, the Class finally settled, and, sought at once to form an organi­

zation. They were tempestuous days, those when the qualities of the several

candidates for office were being thoughtfully considered by a serious and deter­

mined Class which had in view only the welfare of the body, and the glory of

our Alma Mater. And it finally decided with the following selections: Jerry

Walsh, President; Jake Hulett, Vice-President; Ford Cosgriffe, Secretary; James

Harper, Treasurer; J. Hap La Brum, Historian; and Louis Fine, guarding the

sacred portals of the official chamber. With this array of executive power the

Class swung immediately into action, and at once demonstrated its wisdom by

proposing and later adopting a written Constitution. It was a truly admirable

work, the latter, and we doff our hats to its sagacious formulators, Messrs. Harry

J. Freeman, Daniel McKenna, Jake Hulett, Harry La Brum and Leo Considine.

It became apparent at once to all that the study of law was no "res sim-

pliciter," or anything that could possibly be inferred by ingenuous deduction

from knowledge already acquired, but on the contrary, it had to be pondered

over behind closed doors and with all the powers of the intellect marshalled in

array. Otherwise . . . the skies would assume a somewhat gloomy character

on the famous ides of February and June, respectively. The latter was promised

us by no less an eminent weather prophet than Prof. Charles A. Keigwin, past

master of the art of butting and surrebutting. The alarming thing was that he

had cases in point.

The social side of the picture was nowise neglected. Our first smoker,

arranged through the capable Messrs. Captain Marmion, Pat Carr and Joe

McGraw, at the University Club, proved to be a wonderful antidote for legal

exhaustion. A few days before the doleful lenten season we were provided with

another delightful affair—a smoker at Harvey's, in which the engaging and

facetious Pye McGrath, as toastmaster, served us with his charming bon mots and

entertained us with his amusing loquaciousness. A pompous prom, in which we

collaborated with the evening division drew the final curtain on that scholastic year.

On October 1, 192,3, the Class reassembled to celebrate the day of its first

association and incidentally to be on time for the new year, as per requirements.

Again it was plunged into great political upheavals to select its executives, and

again it asserted its wisdom based on honest and mature judgment. Its choices

were as follows: Daniel McKenna, at the helm; E. A. Brown, occupying the

Vice-President's chair; Abe Helling, Secretary; Dan McGrath, Historian; and

Maurice Lyons, Sergeant-at-Arms. It would be pure superfluity to exfoliate

further on the gentlemen. Res ipsa loquitur.

This year also proved to be a year of great affairs. The two most important

social features were a smoker, at the City Club, and a tea dance at the Willard

[ 23,5 ]

Hotel. In the former we were honored by the presence of Senator Royal Copeland, of New York, and His Excellency, Senor Don Alfaro, Minister of Panama. The weeks passed by, each filled with its particular program of activity, which may not be set down here for lack of space. To Mr. McKenna, our chief executive, "a leader born," is justly due the credit.

To lead this final episode of our existence as a "juristic" person, the following officers were selected after a very hard contested ballot: J. Harry La Brum, President; Irvin Diener, Vice-President; "Hap" Farley, Secretary; Alex. Dormer, Treasurer; Fred Rizk, Historian; and Will Hay, .Sergeant-at-Arms. Already the stately dignity and the "savoire faire" of the Senior could be traced in the grim determination, and legal imperturbability of the Class as a whole. And why not? For had we not profited enormously by the multifarious litigations of Mr. John J. Journigan, to say nothing of his reprobate, one-galused relatives who were so proficient in saying "sure"? Sure. So we may well be excused for our appodic-tic air of assurance.

Immediately after the election of officers, a committee headed by the " 'Onrable" M . F. McGuire (everything here seems to be headed by some kind of Mac), supported by Messrs. Phillip Gayout, Heimie Gould, Jack Boloigne and Fred. Rizk, arranged a smoker at the Cosmic Club. The incomparable Bill Manning officiated as toastmaster of the occasion. His keen wit and humor, which kept a blissful grin on all faces present, will be remembered long. The faculty was present, and jointly and severally gave an encouraging talk on Law as a profession. W e had also the honor and pleasure of hearing two of the most distinguished orators of our National Legislature, the Hon. Mr. Thatcher, of Kentucky, and the Hon. Mr. O'Connor, of Louisiana. Music was provided to alleviate the heart of its legal burdens, while "light eats" commingled with Elversos to brighten the eye and curve the lips in smiles of contentment and satisfaction. It was a truly delightful evening.

The Senior Prom which was held at the magnificent Mayflower Hotel on the I9th of February, was a glorious affair.

There are a few more things to be said. The Committee to select the Class rings was composed of Messrs. Flaherty, Grossman and Kearney. Those who have seen the rings will appreciate the artistic temperaments of these gentlemen as reflected in the beautiful designs selected.

For the Business-Managership of this Ye Domesday Booke, Mr. Dan (other­wise "Pye") McGrath was chosen—and no more capable person for this office can be found—as the attractiveness of this book will readily demonstrate.

Mr. Daniel McKenna was selected for the very important position of Editor-in-Chief of the Georgetown Law Journal. He, together with Mr. Harry J. Freeman, have been largely instrumental in the rise of prestige as well as legal value of this publication.

And now as the days of school draw steadily to a close, and we hark back over the three years of our association, we cannot but feel the great debt we owe to our instructors, Professors Fegan, Tooke, De Sloovere, Price, Keigwin and Maurer. If there does arise from this Class leaders of National recognition,(and there cer­tainly will), it will be due to the three years of intimate association with these magnanimous gentlemen, both as personal friends and instructors.

This history is but a skeleton print of the achievements of the Class of '25, whose enthusiasm in every progressive project of the school, has set it apart as one of the really "great" classes of Georegtown. It is only hoped that it will serve as an humble reminder, in the years to come of the joyous days spent under the glorious banner of the Blue and Gray.

That J^gst Dance

When time who steals our years away Shall steal our pleasure too. The memory of the past will slay And half our 'ovs renew."

WILLIAM CA\ANAU(.,H Chairman

F all the adjectives used to illustrate a

good time, could be moulded into one single

word, that word would describe the Senior

Law Prom. The night of February 19th,

is one that will li\e long in our memories.

W ith a promise rjf only ha\'ing for us the best,

the committee in charge worked, and labored for

many days to fulfill their promise and the result was

far abo\'e the highest expectations.

The opening day of the new Mayflower was

secured, Georgetown took possession and ga\'e the

Nation's Capitol a glimpse of what its students can

do in keeping its name as a leader, not only in its

scholastic attainments but its necessary social side.

The promenade, the palm garden and the ball

rooms were profuse with Blue and Gray and in the

main ball room the fraternities with their indi\-idual

boxes formed a spectacle that brought the Prom its clima.- ing adjunct.

To sY'HCopating strains of the far-famed A'incent Lopez and his band, our

girls, God Bless them, danced their wa\' into our hearts and as a result more

than one little Miss will be an important member of a barrister's famih'.

An elaborate dinner was ser\'ed to our guests at ele\-en and until the early

hours of the dawn approached, the ball room was transformed into a bower of

multi-colored effects amid the sounding board of carnivalian rexelry, we waltzed

and trotted and side-stepped with the thought that for many of us it would be

our last chance to enjoy oursehes at a Georgetown Prom.

Our heartfelt thanks cannot be too graciously bestowed upon the members

of our law faculty who graced the affair with their presence and their families.

To Mr. Daniel W . O'Donoughue. that " M a n of M e n " whose confidence in us,

we belie\'e was not misplaced, we express our deepest appreciation.

Financially and socially it was a Success. To "Bill" Cavanaugh who worked

like oaly he can work, the success is due. W e can through this humble medium

express our de\'otion to him and recommend him as a veritable dynamo.

-As a lavish, gorgeous spectacle it will long be remembered as the greatest

Prom given by the school, but to Seniors it will hold the added memories of an

end of years of pleasantries that only our Georgetown could have given.

Junior J^w Qlass History

Evening

N the serried ranks of those besieging the office of the Registrar of the Georgetown L a w School, on September 22, 1924, an observant bystander might have noticed that a certain group stood out, different from all the rest. An air of dignity pervaded that group; an air

of dignity closely akin to majesty. Well might an inquisitive Frosh inquire, in the best Shakesperian manner. "What manner of men are these?" .Ah, Frosh, your ignorance bodes ill for your future in the law. For these are the men who have tamed the animal "ferae naturae," who have purused and captured the fleet "incorporeal hereditament" in its native habitat, and who have safely passed the dread snare of "privity of contract." In short, these are the Juniors.

After the usual reunions of old friends, we resumed, with excruciating joy, our nightly perusal of Professor Sullivan's favorite bit of literature, together with Professor Pagan's exciting sketch, entitled "Cases on Insurance." Just as

everyone was settling down to the routine of study, a spirit of unrest became noticeable. Groups of students could be seen on every side, arguing heatedly, with appropriate gestures, as become "future greats" in oratory.

The subject of these orations was soon disclosed in the cla.ss elections. After hundreds of yards of oratory of the first water had been expended, and bushels

I '2-14 ]

of votes had been cast, the final result read: President, Martin F. O'Donoghue;

Vice-President, George V. Leddy; Secretary, Howard E. Ralph; Treasurer,

James A. Redmond; and .Sergeant-at-Arms, Charles E. Flynn. The heated

rivalry of the elections was turned into a spirit of cooperation. The entire class

supported the officers in the fine work accomplished during the year. "Marty"

O'Donoghue, our capable popular president, worked early and late for the class.

At a meeting of the class held early in December, it was decided to hold the

Junior Smoker at the law school, according to ye olde custom. Lew Daly was

appointed chairman of the smoker committee. Lew and his cohorts put the

smoker over with a crash.

The gentlemanly and urbane Burke Walsh conducted the festivities as

toastmaster. The Honorable David I. Walsh, of Massachusetts, was the speaker

of the e\'ening, and his speech will long be remembered by the class. William E.

Leahy, formerly a professor at Georgetown, was another speaker. Several

e.xponents of the manly art showed the crowd a treat in the form of two fast

bouts. Good music livened up the whole evening, and the smoker was brought

to a glorious close by generous helpings of succulent viands.

Christmas vacation was the next high spot in the year. The carefree holidays

seemed to pass all too quickly, for upon our return the battle of the mid-years

was close upon us. Trying to put up a bold front, we assaulted the strongholds

of Suretyship, Insurance, and E\-idence, and the almost impregnable fortress of

Real Property.

The exams over, it was with a sigh of relief that we made final preparations

for a big evening at the Junior Prom. The date had been set for February 5,

the place, the New Willard. Chairman Ed. King and his numerous committees

had been striving mightily for over a month to make it a success, and prom showed

the result of their arduous labors.

The big ball room was gay with Georgetown and fraternity banners. The

catchy fo.x trots of the Bar Harbor Society Orchestra were varied with dreamy

waltzes in just the right proportion. Gay gowns of the fair ones, in sharp contrast

to the sombre black of the "tucks," lent a touch of color to the crowd. The best

of spirits prevailed everywhere; and it was with keen regret that we heard the

familiar strains of Home Sweet Home.

The opening of the second semester brought difficult, but new and interesting

subjects for our study. These are now the order of the day, our "nightly half-

dozen." For we are all in training now, in preparation for that last hurdle, the

finals, which stands between us and the exalted state of the .Senior.

Junior faw Qlass History

Morning

N October 1, 1923, the present Junior Class of the Georgetown LTni­

versity School of Law, assembled, numbering about ninety and

representing all sections of the Union, from New England to the

Golden Gate.

After the members had renewed old acquaintances, James Cunningham of

Holyoke, Mass., was reelected President. The elections for the other offices

resulted as follows: Mr. Riley, of New Jersey, was unanimously elected Vice-

President; Mr. Morea, of Illinois, Treasurer: Mr. Fury, Secretary; Mr. Ralph

Rinalducci, of Portsmouth, N. H., Historian; and Mr. Bolic De Gassis, of

Nashua, N. H., of football fame, .Sergeant-at-Arms. With the above-named

heads of the class, the machinery began to work smoothly.

The regular assignments and quizzes began to show their effect upon the

student body and there was talk of some entertainment. The discussion soon

pointed to our annual class smoker and a class meeting was called. At this

meeting the President, Mr. Cunningham, appointed a smoker committee com­

posed of Ralph Rinalducci, Chairman; Mr. Dudley and Mr. Sheridan, and

December 15, 1924, .set as the date. The affair took place at the City Club and

our most learned Professor Keigwin was the guest of honor.

[246]

Athletically speaking the class was well represented on the gridiron. B. A.

De Gassis, a classmate of ours holding down the fullback position on the varsity,

while George Murtagh, another classmate starred at a tackle position on the

same varsity. The work of both these men stood cjut preeminently in the game

with Penn.

Upon our return from our pleasant Christmas vacation, we lost no time in

preparing for examinations and for Professor Keigwin's "Dark and gloomy days

days in February."

With the passing of the mid-year exams, the subjects of Bankruptcy, Surety­

ship and Sales were dropped and Carriers, a very interesting subject was sub­

stituted in the place of sales.

In our next semester, which was a much easier schedule than the previous

one, we lost the services of Professor Maurer until next year, when he will be

with us again in Constitutional Law.

The interesting but highly technical subject of Common Law Pleading was well

brought out in Keigwin's new book and the Labyrinths of the subject well explained.

Ed Riley showed himself to be the same old student of last year, who won

class honors. Last year Riley received the highest scholastic standing in the

Freshman Class. Mr. Sears and Mr. Johanais proved to be worthy debators

not to mention Mr. Rafferty who jumped into the limelight with the Butler Club,

which club had for its chancellor, Mr. Joseph Kelly.

Mr. John Robsion, Jr., "The Kentucky Rebel" had the honor of fjeing the

"Sheik" of the Class, being one of those so-called "social hounds." In addition

to being the "Class Sheik," Mr. Robsion is also an able scholar and quite an orator.

Spring having arrived, our class was again represented on the diamond by

Franklin Gillespie, a veteran of last year and who performed very creditably on

the ball field. Much is expected of him this season. George Murtagh again

answered to the call the same call by making the position of catcher. Our beloved

President, James Cunningham, donned the togs of the baseball team to prepare

himself for the coming season. Jim is the property of the "Quebec City" Club

of Eastern Canadian League.

Lent being over the social activities of the school again started. The final

exams were upon the class before it could be realized that the year was nearly

at an end. Again our thought swere only to pass our examinations. W e settled

down once more to review our work for the "IDES O F JLINE."

A class which has achieved, and a class that shows potentialities for greater

things for the next year, is a summary of the Juniors. M a y we of the Junior Class

cultivate such a judicious measure of obtruseness as will enable us to meet the

exigencies of the Senior Year and those that are to confront us in future years.

To our most cherished Professors, who have creditably performed their

duties, we will bid adieu until the verdant summer again changes togolden autumn.

To the Class of 1925, the Class of 1926 bids farewell and sincerely hopes that

they will achieve great success in their undertakings and doings in the future, and

that they may attain the state of imperturbability.

History of the Qlass of icj28 I^w School

Evening

|[|j='-=gf:g^HE fifteenth of September, nineteen hundred and twenty-fi\'e, will go

i^felft^l down to posterity as a great day in the annals of Georgetown Law | ^ = l ^ s | School. That day saw the entrance of the first four-year evening ||z;; ,„I 3l!| class in the history of the school.

The various members who were to constitute this group, came from all the sections of the country, from Maine to the Golden Gate, from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, all assembled for the study of the law. This first night was well spent, listening to words of wisdom and caution from the lips of Dean Hamilton

and the President, Father Creedon. The first week we made the acquaintance of our professors. Profes.sor

Easby-Smith, with his famous watch, explained the mysteries of personal property. One of our most popular instructors Professor Tooke,, taught us the difficult and important subject. Contracts. W e learned among other things how safe it is, to guarantee the debts of others as long as we don't put it in writing. The Reverend Father Easy, in his course of Jurisprudence, explained the various obligations a lawyer should assume on behalf of his clients and the public. Pro­fessor Adkins, with dry humor, always had a very attentive class when lecturing

[250]

on the subject of Torts. Last, but by no means least, comes the most interesting

of all subjects. Criminal Law. Professor Laskey, former U. S. Attorney for the

District of Columbia, always had a full class in attendance at his lectures.

Our first few weeks were spent in pursuit of our studies with little thought of

class affairs. Then the discovery that we were like a ship without a rudder,

sailing upon the sea of life. W e had four years ahead of us and decided that we

must not fall and for this reason we united in asking for a class organization.

After Dr. Fegan, the Assistant Dean, had explained to us the method of pro­

cedure, we set apart one evening for nominations. Eight candidates were

nominated for Class President. W e finally selected from this number, Avery S.

Wardwell, from the District of Columbia. Michael F. Keogh, of Old Forge, Pa.,

was selected for Vice-President. The other officers were Harry J. Kane, Jr., of

Washington, D. C , as Secretary, and Charles S. Buckley, of Augusta, Maine,

Historian, with Bradley B. Smith, of the District of Columbia, as Treasurer.

W^e were unfortunately unable to have Professor Easby-Smith with us for

the entire semester as he was called away from Washington on business during

the month of November. His place was very ably filled by Professor Toomey.

The smoker was held at Harvey's where a fine dinner was enjoyed by about

seventy-five hungry law students. Mr. Joseph Mulvey, of Boston, Mass., acted

as toastmaster. W e heard a wonderful explanation of the law and a lawyer's

obligations from Congressman Huddleston, of Alabama. He was followed by

Congressman McDuffie, also from Alabama. The program was enlivened with

a group of local talent. Father Easy of the Faculty and President Wardwell

also spoke.

Two days after the smoker came the eagerly awaited Christmas holidays. It

was the calm before the storm. After the holidays we returned to face, some

of us with grave forebodings, the mid-year examinations. One of the professors

very aptly expressed the sentiments of the class when he called it, "That dark

and dreary day in January."

" W e came, we saw, we conquered," the exams don't seem as difficult after

they are over. After mid-years we turned our attention to the social events and

decided to have a Prom. Owing to lack of numbers we decided to combine with

the morning class in giving the dance. April 17th was set as the date.

The opening of the second semester also brought more experiences to us.

Professor Sullivan commenced his explanations of the deep and intricate subject

of real property. W e also started in on a new course. Legal Liability, under Mr.

Maurer, as Professor.

With the completion of this our first year, we feel that like sponges, we have

absorbed much. W h o knows but what some may in the future be numbered

among the great jurists of their time. After passing the first milestone of our

journey through the realms of law, we look forward with renewed confidence to

what the future may bring.

History of the Qlass of ig2j J^w School

N a certain sense" says Carlyle, "All men are Historians." Since the writer being more or less, a novice at such an undertaking, the foregoing words were rather encouraging and consoling to read. It was with this thought in mind that he humbly accepted the office of historian of the Georgetown Law Class of 1927.

W e were in deep thought, as we listened to the edifying remarks of President Creedon, S.J., and Dean Hamilton the day we made our debut as students of the law.

It was on October, the twenty-eighth, that a spirited election of officers was held. The results of the election clearly showed the value of our previous prepara­tion. W'hen the din of the battle was over, James J. Donnelly, of Greensliurg, Pa., emerged burdened with the responsibilities of President. Joseph Spinnato, of N e w York was elected Vice-President. Cyrus Smithdeal, of Florida, took up the pen as Secretary, and Costello hailing from Chicago was placed in charge of the exchequer. Harry Connaughton, being a man of weight was elected .Sergeant-at-Arms, and John .S. Meaney, of .Ardmore, Pa., Historian. Later Costello, our Treasurer left .school and Gilniartin of Providence, R. I., was elected to take his place.

Now, we were better fitted to prepare for that "Dark and dismal day in January." Into the depths of Torts, Contracts, Personal Property, Criminal Law, Legal Liability, C o m m o n Law Actions and Jurisprudence, we delved seeking knowledge. Then came the Christmas holidays and at last that Dark and Dismal

[ 252 ]

day had become a thing of the past and then later came the results of the mid­year's exams and those days proved not to be as dark and dismal as predicted.

The prom was a successful affair and much credit is due the committee. "They put it over like a tent."

The Class of 1927 has not been outdone in the other affairs of the school, in athletics, we are represented by stars in every branch of sport, while in debating circles and the various law clubs, the class has been quite prominent.

The year has been marked by harmony, with mutual helpfulness and hard work. W e take the pleasure at this time and still with some regret to bid adieu to our esteemed Seniors who will soon embark for deeper waters. Thus are a few remarks, a supposed history of the Cla.ss of 1927, as Freshmen, at dear old Georgetown, as class that can can be said with some "Appodictic" assurance, is marked to be one of the greatest in the history of the school, and she fostered some good ones.

J. S. M E A N E Y , Historian

LIEUTENANT AL. J. WILLIAMS

The Blue and Gray has fostered many a champion and their names are written in brazen letters across the pages of a century and a half of venerable George­town's history. .She has placed their likeness in niches in a hall of fame in her heart and sent them intf) the world knowing well their efforts would demand recognition, and they did.

Al Williams, by way of distinction, is "the world's fastest human," winner of the Pulitzer trophy in 1923 and holder of the world's record for speed at 267 miles per hour. He completes, with Jim Hughes, Pratt, Marfjury, et al, the school's corps of pilots.

Although Al adopted Georgetown a little late in his career we are all the more proud of him and tickled to death to know our Alma Mater numbers another champion among her loyal sons.

[253]

The Pre-fjgal Qlass

T the first meeting of the First Year Class of the Foreign Ser\'ice

School a ruling was made upon advice from the office, that because the

pre-legal students were registered as Freshmen in the .Art and Sciences

Department of the Llniversity, they were not entitled to participation

in the class election of the Foreign Service Class. However, it was a short time

afterward through the energetic efforts of a volunteer committee permission was

granted by the Dean, Father Gallagher, to organize the E\'ening Pre-legal Class.

At the first meeting of the class, the following men were selected. President, Ray

Doyle, of New Haven; Vice-President; Ray McCarthy, Youngstown, Ohio;

Secretary, Ray Sparks, from Mattoon, 111., Treasurer, Lloyd McCarthy', Wash­

ington, D. C , and Sergeant-at-Arms, James Powers. The Class Dance was

conducted on January 16th of this year at Sunset Inn, and was a grand success.

At present President Doyle is planning a Debating Club and other novel features

by which he hopes to increase interest in the organization. .Since this is the first

Pre-legal Class to be organized it is only natural that the progress in perfecting

the organization would be slow, but it is the hope of the officers that with coopera­

tion the success due shall soon be attained.

The J^w J^rary LONG with the increase and progress of the other departments of

Georgetown, the Law Library has held an e\-en race. Only a few years ago the library was housed in what is now used as the Practice Court Room.

This Room being insufficient in size for reading purposes, and the stacks of fiooks, the Auditorium was converted into the library. In this spacious room there are reading facilities for three or four hundred students, having access to twelve thousand volumes of law books consisting of reports and texts.

The most noted development is the increase in the number of books, especially reference books and late texts. The school through the library director has placed over four hundred new Yolumes (jn the shelves this year.

The use gi\en to the library is very great. The control of it as far as active and practical use of it is concerned is given over to a head librarian and his three assistants. The staff hopes this year to haxe ser\ed the student bod\' efficiently, and we will conclude by paying it this tribute: " It is one of the best equipped of law libraries."

The Qarroll J^aw Qlub

AR.APHR.ASING the Immortal Bard, if that be permitted, the

question "To do or not to do" has always been one of easy solution

in the councils of Carroll Law Club. Motions to consider bills which

must ine\'itably add a heavy burden of study and research to an

alread)' crowded and ONcrburdened day, have passed with an alacrity that is

surely indicative of a boundless enthusiasm and interest in the work of the Club.

Perhaps the most gratifying improvement made by Carroll Law Club in the

past year is that which is indicated by the greatly improved records of atten­

dance. This speaks much for the calibre of the new members, and points to con­

tinued success of the Club during the next year. .And these new memljers remain

new but a short while. The .Senior who writes this remembers with what diffidence

he took the rostrum for the first time, to expound upon some of his own articles

of faith, and how he marveled at the self-possession and stage presence of the

Senior members of the Club. .And, now, in his .Senior Year, he is still obliged to

marvel, this time at the perfect confidence and active interest shown by the

Junior and Freshman members.

Members of Carroll Law Club, have this year, as in years past, been promi­

nent in the College Debates, and have retired from each of these with credit to

themselves and the Club.

Many thanks are due the Faculty for its active interest always shown and

for its help in promoting the activities of the Club.

Chancellor Damrell retires after a particularly successful year, and to him,

in no small measure, is due the Club's satisfactory progress. P'oUowing in the

footsteps of such men as Cosgrove, Leavey and Shilder, he has had a difficult

standard to equal, but that he has done so is eloquently indicated by the records

of the Club. Thanks is also due the other officers, but, in the final analysis the

welfare of the Club was in the hands of the members and these members have

undertaken the burden willingly and enthusiastically, and to them all thanks is

due. With the present body of members left to carry on the work, those who this

year leave the Club and the L ni\'ersity may do so secure in the thought that

the aim of Carroll Law Club to promote further the art of debate and increasing

literary pursuit and fostering those high ideals, ever cherished by this lhii\'ersity,

will be loyally upheld.

BuRKK W A L S H Historian

O A . S T I N G neither antiquity nor tradition the Hamilton L a w con­tinued through the year 1924-1925 busy with active development and the establishment of itself as a virile organization throbbing with life.

Soon after the opening of school, Hamilton began upon its year's work with the following officers guiding its course; T. J. Buckley, President; J. F. Donohue, Vice-President; B. C. P'rye, Treasurer; J. L. Finegan, .Secretary; and Burke Walsh, Historian.

Under the leadership of these men the Congress method of procedure, tried the previous year, was firmly established as the modus operandi of the club. It proved a worth system from the start and not only did its parliamentary mechanics pro\'e an admirable form for the conduct of the meetings but its general manner of operation brought benefit to each member.

The roster of the club grew steadily and by Spring the enrolllment of 50 was attained after careful discrimination in the selection and acceptance of members. As a result of which the morale was of the finest. T w o Sunday afternoons each month the vast majority of the actix-e members gave up to come down to the City Club for the meeting. This sacrifice reflects the splendid spirit which has been the backbone of the club's development and suggestions that the meeting time be changed have been ignored becau.se it has been felt that such sacrifices tend to make the growth of the organization steady and substantial.

Affairs of the club went on apace. The interest was the best, the debates improved and members competed for the public debates in goodly numbers. The club's season was successfully ended with the annual dinner held this year at the City Club.

.JUNIOR DEBATlN(j SOCIETY

The Junior Debating Society

KIN to the .Senior Society, and her friendly rival in all matters

debatable, is this lower class organization of disciples of Webster,

Calhoun et al. Realizing well that oratory is the life blood of the law

the society has attracted into its fold the cream of lower class debaters.

File subjects are taken from the most important questions of national and

internatif)nal importance and the annual tilt with the senior society is looked

forward to with a great deal of good natured fight. The results of the hard work

and perspiration put into the organization is very apparent and like the older

senior society is meeting with one hundred per cent success.

It affords its members wonderful training in public speaking and its kindred

endeavors and a stininiary of the good accomplished would be too lengthy indeed

to publish here.

SENIOR 1JEB.AT1N(G SOCIETY

The Senior Debating Society

IKE her sister debating societies, the senior organization continues

to wax strong and grow with the years. When the organization was

born in the dim and distant part of course its purpose was well

known and the society has met with and is meeting unlooked for

success due not only- to the fact that Law and Debating are kindred lines of

endea\'or and ha\'e marcherl hand in hand dovYu through the ages, but in no

small measure to the hearty co-operation and zeal of its supporters.

The subjects of discussion are many and varied, dealing with the most

important questions of the day. The high water mark of the society's success was

reached in the final debate of the year in which Emmett McKenzie, Butte,

Montana's, fa\'orite son acquitted himself in a manner that would do credit to

Edmund Burke.

The Pennsylvania J^w Qlub

HE boys from the Keystone State stand second in the way of numbers in the school but way down in their hearts they think they stand first otherwise, and it's only their extreme modesty (or is it modesty) that keeps them from shouting it from the housetops. The club roster

is bigger than the telephone directory in Clinton, Iowa, and growing. The disciples of Billy Penn have worked hard in the past as they will in the

future, to bring nothing if not credit to old Georgetown, and the keystone state is fairly sprinkled with her loyal sons. Jake Hulitt reports having found one in Leather Corner Post.

The purpose of the club is to familiarize its members with the Pennsylvania statutes, the Practice Act, and the rigidity of the bar exams there, the value of taking pride in the organization for whatever may be done in its name for the school and the cementing of a friendship between the members that is bound to bear fruit.

The organization is fortunate in having two of its members occupy the highest positions of trust and favor the Senior Class has the power to confer. Robert C. McClellan, of Allentown, is the Editor-in-Chief of Ye Domesday Booke, having jurisdiction o\'er the five departments of the University, while Eugene McLaugh­lin, of York, is President of our Class.

Jake Hulitt, a veteran of the World War, and probably the school's foremost authority on things political, and quite an authority on things not so political was the club's wise choice for President. Dan M c K e n n a is serving brilliantly as Colonel House.

H U G H J. F E G A N , Assistant Dean. . Factdty Advisor O promote the s])irit of informal debate, with its consequential attributes of facility

of speech and ease of manner while s[)eaking exten)pore, was the chosen purpose of that body of n)orning students who in n)eeting assembled deciderl to torn) a distinct and composite body, later to be know-n as the Pierce Butler Law Club. The long felt need for such an organization among the morning students had been realized and the purpose for which it w-as desired is w-ell expressed in the preamble

of our Constitution: "for the purpose of developing ability as public speakers, learning the art of debate in pursuance of our chosen profession, and the upholding of the Truth, the spirit of Loyalty, and those ideals fostered by our University."

-At the first meeting, after a spirited contest, Mr. Joseph T. Kelly, of Archbald, Pa., was chosen to guide the destinies of the Club during the troublesome period of its infancy. With all due credit to Mr. Kelly for his untiring efforts and the admirable way in which he has executed the duties of his office, the n)embers wish to reserve that small portion due themselves for the wisdom and foresight they exercised in choosing so worthy a leader. Following the election of a chancellor, the remaining officers were duly elected and installed, and the policies and aims of the Club discussed. .A constitutional committee was then appointed to draw up a constitution and by-laws whereby the organization was to function.

After deliberate consideration, the consensus of opinion was that the Club be nai-ned in honor of .Associate Justice Pierce Butler, of the .Supreme Court, of the United States. A special con-mittee, composed of the Chancellor, Mr. J. T. Kelly, Mr. B. McKasy, Mr. A. D. Cannon, and Mr. -A. R. Pfau, w-aited upon the Justice, and after explaining the purposes and aims of the Club, sought his permission in nan)ing our new organization in his honor. The Justice's consent was secured and a letter of formal acceptances and appoval was given the Club, expressing his esteem and thanks, and assuring an interest in its success.

Justice Butler as a lawyer and man of affairs is w-ell known throughout the United States, however, it may be of interest to know that he is a native of Minnesota, receiving his early educa­tion in the public schools of that state, and graduating from Carleton College, at Northfield, Minn., in 1887; then he commenced the stutly of law; was admitted to the bar at St. Paul, Minn., in 188S, continuously practicing law there until January, 192:L He has occupied various positions of pron)inence in public life, and has always shown deep interest in educational affairs.

Regular meetings of the Club are held every Friday- at noon, and a spirited contest usually ensues. T w o leaders are selected, beforehand, who with the assistance of two associates apiece, lead the debate. Their speeches are to be extemporaneous, the subject for debate being assigned only tw-o days in advance, all this being in keeping with the purpose and aims of the Club. After the formal part of the debate, the subject is open to discussion by the members who also render the decision.

.Assistant Dean Hugh J. Fegan, w-ho not only- sponsored the early endeavors of the Club, but did much to assist us in the organization was chosen as Faculty .Advisor for the Club. H e accepted and has been one of the principal sources of that motivating influence which augurs well for our continuing success. .At our advisor's suggestion, the first prize contest was held in the early part of .April. Mr. P. J. .Sheridan merited first honors w-ith Mr. .A. Johannes following closely. .A second contest held a week later, disclosed Mr. Edw-ard E. Riley as the recipient of first honors. Our roster also contains n)en, w-ho have participated in the prize debates conducted by the L a w School.

The first annual banquet, which is to be a precedent, was held on .April 2:Grd, with Justice Pierce Butler after w h o m the Club was named, as guest of honor. The Rev. C. W . Lyons, President of (Georgetown University, the Hon. Cjeo. E. Hamilton, Dean of the Law School, our Faculty .Advisor, .Assistant Dean Hugh J. Fegan, and the professors of the Morning School, C. W . Tooke, C. A. Keigwin, F. J. De.Sloo\-ere, R. .A. Maurer and W . J. Price also graced the occasion, and who together with the membership will readily acclaim this gathering one to be long and w-ell remembered.

The officers for the con)ing year will be elected in May. Let us hope that the body has the good fortune and the splendid foresight to choose officers as capable and with as much ability as the out-going ones, and n)ay the Club ever grow and prosper with the success, we are predicting, after having seen her complete her maiden year.

It has brought about a closer study of American and Filipino ideals of democracy and government.

History of the Dental Qlass '25 HE year 1921 was very significant to the members of this class. It

meant the first introduction to the study of Dentistry. There were

4.5 of us then, and I can well recall the horror of the first entry into

the anatomical laboratory, the mystery of physics and chem, and

the incomprehensible dots and \-ivid splashes of color on the histological slides.

Will we ever forget those long nights of poring over the well-thumbed leaves of

Grey and Cunningham and learning the day's assignment "cold" alas! only to

forget it within a week. Those days will never be blotted from our memory,

nor will we cease taking pride in that we stuck to it and won.

It was a considerably smaller, but more cocky group that gathered on the

following October. Our troubles were by no means over. There was still our

Anatomy—and who will forget those tense hours when with backs bent and pencils

flying we attempted to record verbatim Father Tondorf on the Physiology of the

Nervous System. That was the year when we met good old Doctor Hamilton.

They were long but enjoyable hours with Doctor Hird in the Physiological

Chemistry laboratory, hours of studious endeavor mi.xed in no small share with

boyish prank.s—ask Joe Drennan. W e began a more intensi\'e study of Pros­

thetics about that time—Roland Manseau during that year attained the technique

of openirtg a vulcanizer under full pressure.

The group which gathered in the fall of 192.3 was practically identical with

the one of the year before. W'e were Juniors! Anatomy, Physiology, Chemistry—

the nightmares of the past gone forever! And then we began the study of more

strictly Dental subjects in real earnest. There were long hours in the Prosthetic

laboratory, and with Doctor Thorn in Crown and Bridge. Then too, did we

plunge into the magic realm of Drugs, when with lavish hands we dealt out equal

doses of aconitine and iodine, when Doctor Gapen for hours tried every method

from injunction and infiltration to tituration in his attempt to instill in our

drugged minds the principles of Materia Medica. That was the year of Opera­

tive—the ear still buzzes with ringing admonitions of Doctor Ellis, "Gentlemen,

get those line and point angles. Don't maltreat that Gingeva! Those walls, get

them parallel and square."

.And with June came our triumphal entry into the Infirmar\' as Senior men.

And thus we toiled along until January the .31st. On that day took place the first

Infirmary examination. From 9 to 6 we labored at a feverish pace. But that

too became routine as the months rolled on. And so to June when fortified by

these four long and yet incredibly short years we fare forth into this world and

say, "Come on Ye .Stifferers." .ALI':XA\DKK C H A S E , Historian

Dental

Qlass

History

HE year 1923-24 was a year of success for the present Junior Class of

the Dental School. Most important to the Cla.ss individually and

collectively, success in the way of studies beamed upon the class.

Not a single casualty was chalked up against us. This lone fact is a

source of pride to us in view of the many obstacles that confront a professional

student in the pursuit of his aim. By this success the Class has stamped it.self

as being a collection of hard workers thoroughly embued with an intimate appreci­

ation of the demands of their chosen profession and full imderstanding of the

personal equipment necessary to dispense the services of their prcjfession to those

needful of such services. Socially the Class reached a prominence unattained

hitherto in the Dental Department. The Sophomore Prom held at the Playhouse,

January 17, 1924, culminated in a relatively great financial and social success.

Upon return from the summer vacation, the Class immediately set themselves

to the task of preparing to serve humanity. The change in studies was marked.

In the previous two years the work was along lines fundamental, the secular

knowledge of Dentistry. N o w the threshold of actual Dentistry is approached

and from this point all endeavor will be long lines of duty.

The class elections saw J. W . Sullivan reelected to the Presidency by accla­

mation. With the nominations for each succeeding office, the acclamation grew

to such bounds and if I may say it, and if I may unprofessional impropriety

that pressure was brought upon the place to vacate the room in which elections

were being held. Forthwith the unruly group adjourned to the street pavement

and there gave full expression to their Democratic ideals. The further results

of this gathering of fervid zealots say William D. Monroe, \ace-President; E. M .

Smith, Treasurer; H. Berger, Secretary and Edward De Laney, Sergeant-at-

Arms. On No\'ember 24, 1924, the same success attended the .Sophomore Prom

This success compliments the directing heads of the dance. This expression of

ability of management of affairs presages much in way of future success for the

class individuals.

J 2S7 ]

In closing let our thoughts be always turned toward the increasing upward trend of dentistry in the scientific world. Today dentistry is broadening and developing under our very eyes. Scarcely a scientific publication comes off the press but contains some article dilating upon the close relationship between dentistry and medicine. Throughout the dental schools of the country, new courses are being instituted in the regular curriculum, that the student m a y be prepared to see and accept the future of dentistry. For some years many of the European countries demanded a practicing dentist to have a degree in medicine. The day is not far off when such a requisition will be necessary in the United States. N o w in this period of growth and development is, the opportunity and let us not fail to equipt ourselves adequately and to help our profession to her

rightful place in the field of scientific endeavor.

Sophomore Dental Qlass History

ROM the north, east, south and west, came back to Georgetown the

members of the Class of '27, to be present at the beginning of their

quest for the coveted and elusive D.D.S.

This was on the 26th day of September; and one might have

called it "Mobilization" Day. .And yet, he would not have been far wrong;

because if ever an army had a battle or task confronting it, the Class of '27 had.

And like any band of men in a conflict our class suffered and its numbers depleted

by about one-third. With the welcome addition of three new men we present a

front rank of forty-one members.

After the greetings were over we again took up our studies where we left

off in June, but found, that instead of a curriculum that favored us, we found one

"Worse and more of it." But true to the record we established, we set ourselves

to the task with enthusiasm (and noise). W'e found that the second year was

everything that had been claimed for it, a hard year.

Early in November, the officers for the sea.son 1924-2.5, were selected.

The following receiving the appro\-al of the majority: Robert Houghton, of

Jersey City, President; Joseph J. Kelly, .Sherbourne, N. Y., A'ice-President;

1289]

Edwin Snell, of Washington, D. C , .Secretary; J. J. Doran, Franklin, Pa.,

Treasurer; Pasquale De Nicoli, Waterbury, Conn., Sergeant-at-Arms and Ralph

M . Hannan, Marietta, Ohio, Historian.

The month of November was hardly under way when the boys began talking

of Christinas vacation. Returning after the holidays, we sailed along smoothly

until bump, the mid-year exams were upon us, but as the bitter must go with the

sweet, we did our best which was shown by the gratifying results.

Soon after the mid-term exams, the biggest social event of the dental school

was held, a dance given by the .Sophomore Class. The Committee in charge has

the whole-hearted thanks of the Class of '27 for arranging such a fine affair. The

following Class to come will go far to stage an affair to compare with it. It was

probably a brilliant affair to us, because our heavy schedule forces us to forego

much of the social side of life though we are ready and willing to indulge when

our studies permit.

Before closing, on behalf of the Class, I wish to say that without the help of a

splendid faculty, we undoubtedly would not have done so well for our first two

years. To these eminent men we as a Class extend our thanks and appreciation

for all they have done for us.

With the help of the Father of us all, and such men as our faculty represents,

we hope in the future to be truly representative of the high standards of George­

town and really worthy of receiving the honor of D.D.S., from such an institution

as our Alma Mater.

Freshman Dental Qlass History

llijl -^"MflF anv'one should ask y(ju, "Who placed Georgetown Dental .School | H B | ^ B | | in the category of first-class dental schools," the inevitable answer |^a|^H|| would be "The Class of '28, of course." Rest assured that nobody 'Ifc^U.^^;^! will question your assertion. But, should you be of a dubious nature, your misgivings will easily be allayed in the course of your perusal of Ye Domesday Booke, you should ha\'e the time and the inclination to read this chronicle and satisfy your incredulity.

On .Septemfjer 26, 1925, with representatixes from every' section of the country', the Dental Class of '28 was enrolled. The largest class, seventy-eight in number, in the history of the school.

It was "roses," all the way during the first few weeks of our journey on the road to Dentistry, but a whirlwind, coming in the form of diabolically compiled lecture sheets presented to us by Dr. J. P. Madigan, Master of .Anatomy, destroved forever, our premature conception of a Dental course and left in its place a realiza­tion of four years of intense application.

Early in October the first official class meeting was held and after a rather stormy and spirited session the following officers were elected to serve for the year: President, George Brennan, N e w Haven, Conn.; A'ice-President, Joseph B. Lutz, F'orks, N. Y.; Secretary, Francis Burberick, Brooklyn, N. Y.; Treasurer,

[ 291 ]

Francis Carroll, Bridgeport, Conn.; Historian, Leo. J. Brown, Plymouth, Penna.;

Sergeant-at-Arms, Andrew Jackins, Brooklyn, N. Y. Fate seemed to be adverse to some of our number causing them to discon­

tinue their studies, among w h o m was Mr. Brennan, causing the responsibility

of guiding the class' destinies to fall on "Genial" Joe Lutz. During the fall the Georgetown Athletic Association, representing the five

departments of the Llniversity in all branches of sport was organized with the purposes of furthering the cause of Georgetown's Athletics. To the exponents of this movement, the Class of '28 extends its most sincere wishes for success.

In order to dispel the feeling of unfamiliarity and strangeness, always present in a Freshman, the different fraternities of the school, Xi Psi Phi, Psi Omega, and Delta Sigma Delta, gave several smokers and get-together gatherings. The short talks and friendly advice given by members of the faculty and officers of the fraternities helped to mould the class into an organized group, capable of directing their own course through uncharted Freshman seas.

With the Easter vacation over the best Freshman Prom ever was held at the Wardman Saddle Club on the evening of M a y first. The best music obtain­able (with due respect to our bankroll), the most beautiful women, the only Freshman Class and a live wire committee, made the Prom, one long to be remembered.

Our Class wished to express its thanks to our worthy President, the Reverend Father Lyons, the Dean, Assistant Dean, and Faculty for the advice and coopera­tion shown us through the year.

A class that will succeed and a class that has great potentialities for great things is a summary of the Freshman Dental Class of 1925.

Class of 1925, the Class of 1928, bids you success and farewell.

Foreword

H E School of F'oreign Service, Georgetown llniversity's youngest

department, again points with pride to another year of successful

accomplishment.

The School this year graduates a class of sexenty-five. To these

we add fifteen post-graduates—two with the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.

The School thus continues to scatter to all corners of the globe its foreign service

missionaries. There is hardly any place of importance in the world today but

what one can find a graduate of this school holding forth in an important capacity.

Our men ha\-e gone into governmental service, they may be found in the shipping

industry, and the world of commerce has called to many. The training received

at the School of Foreign Service is serving these men in good stead enabling them

to render a service of which we are all proud.

With the contemplated expansion of the School to provide proper accom­

modations for a rapidly increasing waiting list, and with the constant improve­

ment of the courses to increase their usefulness, we can look for still greater

results in time to come. The School of Foreign Service is still in its infancy but

it is already a power in the field of foreign service. W e look to the future with keen

anticipation and with the feeling that our pioneer efforts will be the means of

greater future ser\-ice to our country and the world.

JAMES BROWN SCOTT, A.M., LL.D., J.U.D.

Dedication

0 one of the most illustrious professors that has ever graced the lecture halls of Georgetown Ihiiversity—Doctor James Brown Scott, Professor of International L a w and the Foreign Relations of the Ihiited States—this section is respectfully and affectionately dedicated

by the graduating classes of the School of Foreign Service. Throughout the world among internationalists. Doctor Scott stands in the

front rank. There is scarcely any international lawyer or statesman of note in France, Germany, Belgium, Great Britain or the Latin American Republics who does not know and respect him as one of the keenest, most sympathetic and efficient persons in international affairs. By men who are running the affairs of the world he is considered one of the most potent influences toward having the nations of the world conduct their relations with one another on a plane of justice and friendship to the profit and safety of all. H e has labored to make The Hague Peace Conferences a success. This, together with his fruitful efforts in connection with the International Court of Justice now sitting at The Hague and his connection with the codification of International L a w for the 21 American Republics, will be a monument to Doctor Scott that will stand more permanently in his honor than any marble or bronze.

To the students of the School of Foreign Service, he is a most capable pro­fessor with keen appreciation of the real facts underlying international relations and, withall, one so modest that he talks with the mere beginners on a plane of entire equality with careful consideration for their points of view. H e has left nothing stand in the way of giving the best in him with the result that the students who take his courses go out from Georgetown fired with enthusiasm for justice in the regulation of the affairs of the world, backed with a sound compre­hension of the fundamental principles that should regulate such relations. Doctor Scott has the reputation of speaking the truth without fear or favor, stating the facts as he sees them out of his unusually broad experience, at the same time being ever ready to listen to the other man 's view. As the .School of Foreign Service continues its rapid expansion, and the dispersion of its graduates to the four corners of the globe, more and more will the influence of this bene\'olent and competent professor show itself in the affairs of the world. There are no students that leave the School of Foreign Service without the keenest admiration, respect and affection towards their illustrious professor and friend—JAMES B R O W N SCOTT.

Senior Qlass History

HFL Class of '25 has been one of those unusual kind—alwa\'s on the

go, fighters, and what ntjt. To record its history- would require

volumes so we shall merely touch the high spots of our four-year career.

One of the outstanding events of this aggregation was the class

election in 1924. To say that this election rivaled the recent Democratic National

Con\'ention is to put it mildly. In our luimble opinion our class election surpassed

by far any event that ever took place in the world of politics.

Imagine, if you can, the spectacle of electing one man for President three

times in one e\'ening only to find that some one else had captured the coveted

post. H o w did it happen? Well, such men like Shanahan, Herron, Matters,

et al, can probably tell \-ou of the mysterious political manipulations that took

place that evening. An even dozen ballots were necessary to break down the

dead-lock, numerous conferences, and hurried canvasses, but the clearing of the

atmosjjhere showed the following students has won out in the fight: Nick Busch,

of the .State of Washington, was elected President; John J. Shanahan, prominent

in Keystone .State politics, was gi\-en the pf)st of A'ice-President (by comi)r()niise);

James H. Clancy, Jr., who hails from Massachusetts, led the field for Secretary;

James J. Hennessey, also of Massachusetts, was given the portfolio of the Treasury;

[306]

Lester W . Kramer, a son of Missouri, was entrusted with the mace of authority as Sergeant-at-Arms. The humble writer of this sketch, representing the Sun­shine State of N e w Mexico, was designated as Historian.

The Class of '25 was born four years ago of very humble origin but it soon displayed high ambitions and a will-to-do. Only a few of the charter members now grace our roll—not because of failures, but because the class arrangements of our school makes it possible. The older blood, however, has been well augmented by our more recent recruits. At present we represent a front of some seventy-five men, not counting our fifteen brothers of the graduate department.

Our Class boasts some of the most prominent men of the University. Marsters and Kinnaly, of track fame; Nick Busch, the football star, and others, are honored members of our gang. In every field of endeavor our members have given a good account of themselves. In their academic work they have labored well and faithfully and the prospective diplomas stamp their endeavors with the approval of our School.

Future history is in the making as our Class leaves its Alma Mater. This is no idle boast but merely the expression of a conviction based on an intimate knowledge of the men referred to. What heights they will reach in their chosen work remains to be seen, but climb they will and the day will come when the men of '25 will gaze upon these lines and wonder at the modesty of this prophetic expression.

As we come to the parting of the ways we wish to say a word to those men whose assistance has meant so much to us. Each and every professor has given us their best. For this we are sincerely grateful. W e hope that their efforts will be reflected in our work and they, too, may look upon our accomplishments with pride. To one man, above all, we extend hearty thanks and cordial good wishes. He has been an inspiration and a help to all of us. Our troubles have been his troubles, our problems his problems. To Mr. Healy, the Assistant Dean, we address these humble expressions of our gratitude.

To our school mates we wish every success and to them we leave the task to carry on the good work.

Junior Qlass History

K the Fall of 1922 some one hundred and fifty young men, hailing

from practically every state in the Ihiion, and a few from foreign

countries, met together for the first time in the assembly hall of the

School of Foreign Service, which school was to be their fountain of

knowledge and wisdom for the following four years.

Faces were new and friendships were yet to be formed. It was not long,

however, before the future diplomats and consults, capains of industry and

shipping gathered together at a smoker to meet as fellow-students and comrades.

Friendships and associations were there formed and as each year rolled by, were

made stronger and closer.

The Freshman Year will li\'e long in otir memories. Mingled with class work

were a number of social activities that have few parallels. The curtain was

drawn early in M a y with the Annual Prom, then a round of extuns, followed by

the trip back home for most of us. .Some of our number went to Europe for

study and recreation.

The .Sophomore Year ushered in a new era of school work and activities.

Friendships were early renewed. School life took on a more determined aspect

1 322 1

for we had reached the second step toward our goal. Again the urge was quick­ened for much hard and serious study, never forgetting, however, the admonitions of the Faculty that play- with work is most essential for the proi:)er training of the students. Again the curtain was lowered closing the second year of our school life.

W e have now reached the third rung of the ladder. Our energies are redoubled to make this the banner year of our school life. Election of officers was held early and the class has enjoyed a successful regime under their leadership.

The social activities of the Class have met with a hearty and eager response. Our studies have by now become somewhat diversified, some specializing in the Consular and Diplomatic Group, others in the Shipping Course, and still others majoring in the Commercial end of foreign service, all being deeply enthused f)ver their work.

It is the ambition of the officers that the Junior Class may make history in its accomplishments, achievements, and successes, both in the classroom and

elsewhere. G E O R G E T . H I R T , Historian

THE SOPHOMORE CLASS

Sophomore Qlass History

OON after the opening of school, the Sophomore Class held its first

meeting for the purpose of welcoming the old men and extending

cordial greetings to the new members of the Class.

A second meeting was attended by the whole Sophomore Class.

It is a characteristic of the class that every member attends the meetings. The

election was carried on with great enthusiasm and the office of President was

hotly contested. George W . Bates, of Norfolk, Nebr., was elected to that position.

George O'Keefe, of New Haven, Conn., was elected A'ice-President; Leo R.

Dillon, of Carrolton, Pa., a former law student, was elected Secretary. Peter

Coffield, of Allentown, Pa., was elected Treasurer; Joseph C. Bergere, of Santa

Fe, New Mexico, was the unanimous choice for Sergeant-at-Arms; Edgar Dick,

of Greeley, Colo., was elected Historian after a spirited contest with other members

of the class.

After the election of officers, the new President appealed to the class for

greater cooperation in class functions ancl business. The meeting adjourned.after

the selection of a date to discuss the possibilities of a class dance.

December 6th was the date decided on for the opening dance of the year.

Romeo R. Moreati was selected as Chairman of the Committee. The dance was

held at the Franklin .Square Hotel and the music was furnished by the Carolinans.

The dance was a great social success, the btill room was filled to capacity and the

[324]

sale of tickets gave the treasury a considerable balance. The success of this first social event caused discussion for a dinner to be given sometime during the second semester.

The class regrets the loss of Luis J. Estevez one of Georgetown's foremost track stars. Mr. Estevez has transferred to the Law School. Mr. Moreau, who was instrumental in the success of the class dance, has entered Brown University, preparing for the course in Finance at Harvard. The untimely death of Thomas R. Reilly, an esteemed member of the class, is deeply felt by all his classmates.

With continued enthusiasm for the course this class chosen, we look forward to the succeeding years in the School of Foreign Service, hoping that graduation will give to the service of our country many distinguished business men and diplomats.

THE FRESH.MAN CLASS

History of the Qlass of ig28

HE outlook for the members of this year's Freshman Class is very

bright. They have maintained the high average of their predecessors

and are destined to be one of the best classes that has ever entered

the Foreign Service .School.

Although the men were not able to mix and become acquainted as quickly

as those at the Hilltop, it was not long before they knew each other and the

good fellowship which prevails among the men enabled them to establish the best

of friendship.

The Freshman Class held their first meeting in October under the sponsor­

ship of Mr. Jean J. Labat, Professor of French and Attache to the French Em­

bassy, and class officers were elected. Charles Garibaldi, whose home is in

Lavolette, N. J., was elected president and he has filled his office capably; a

good student and fine fellow. Mr. .Stephen Phelaii, Jr., who sails from .Stockton,

C alif., was elected to the office of A'ice-President. Mr. Millard Kenestrick, whose

home is in KendalKille, Ind., was elected .Secretary and has filled this office in

a satisfactory manner. Mr. Thomas Fogarthy, who hails from Brooklvn, X. Y.,

was elected to the office of Treasurer, and up to the present time has not run away

1 32() 1

to Brooklyn with the Class Treasury. Mr. James Rourke of Bridgeport, Conn.,

U. S. A., was elected Sergeant-at-Arms, and though he has not been forced to use

the title accorded him, he has kept to the tradition of his predecessors and

managed to get in a good half hour's nap every meeting.

The class prom is set for March 17th and the outlook is very encouraging.

The date of the various proms have interfered greatly with out getting a suitable

date, but it is expected that the Freshman Prom this year will exceed all others

that have been held in the past. T H O M . A S F O G A R T Y , JR.

The Inter-Fraternity Qouncil

|HIS, the Inter-l''raternity Cotincil's third sticccssfiil y-ear, has been replete with actixities—scholastic, social and athletic.

AA'hen, we consider the [primary motives, which actuated the founders, nameU-, to promote the interests of Ceorgetown University;

to promote the interests of fraternities therein, and insure cooperation among the fraternities, to the end that conditions and relations between the traler-nities, the student body, and the Cnixersity atithorities might be im[iroxed and advanced, we are able to report progress and an encouraging outlook.

The purposes and interests ot the severtil fraternities ha\ e been advanced, cooperation inter-se attained and results have been accomplishetl in cementing the desired unity of relationship between the various departments of the Uni­versity. A m o n g the means thereto might be mentioned, the Basket-ball League and the Inter-Fraternity- From.

Closer relationship and friendly aid have been factors impelling the numerous l)odies within the organization in their respective and united work.

The departments of the Cniversity- comprising the Council include dental, legal, medical foreign-service and general fraternities. They- include:

.Alpha Omega Delta Chi Delta .Sigma Fhi Gamma Eta Gamma Kappa .Alpha Phi Phi .Alpha

Phi .Alpha Delta Phi Beta ( lamnia Sigma Nu Phi Tau Fpsilon Fhi Xi Psi Phi

For the scholastic year 1924-2,5, the officers of the Council were as follows:

J. F. CoscRin-E, Sigma N u Phi President J. C. CuRR-AN, Kappa Alpha Phi Vice-President J. B. D E B . A R B E R , Delta Phi Fpsilon Secretary D. J. POWERS, Psi Omega Treasurer

Today the C^ouncil despite a mtichlx' impeded progress, has Ijecome a potent factor, in promoting the amicafile relations of the fraternities. It has likewise succeeded, in effecting adjustments, between the fraternities and the University'.

The ftiture, that ex er-eltisive, sometimes foreboding, sometimes shining tomorrow, will, undotibtedly be full ot opiJortunities, whereby' the Council, because of it's inherent nature, will nobly-, unreservedly and comjiletely advance the work, for which it was founded—in promoting <i harmony ol ideas and an unification of energy', thereby helping the Faculty and all the 1 )eiiartments in the making of tin United Georgetown.

[369]

Delta Qhi Inter-Fraternity Qhampions

H F championship of the Inter-P'raternity Basket-ball League for the past season was won by the Delta Chi tossers, who proved themselves real champions by winning, in all, five games and keeping their slate clean.

Manager Joe Hagen's boys opened the season with an easy win over Phi Alpha by the score of 44 to 4. Kappa Alpha Phi forfeited to Delta Chi ne.xt. Delta Sigma Pi, fresh from an victory over Delta Phi Fpsilon, next set down by the convincing score of 28 to 5. .Sigma N u Phi tried its best to curb the rise of Delta Chi but the best they could do was to hold the pennant winners to a 37 to 2 score.

The final game to decide the championship was played between the Psi Omega team, last year's champions and Delta Chi. The two teams that battled for the pennant last year. This year, however. Delta Chi turned the tables on the Dentists in the hardest fotight game of the league's play, winning after a struggle by the score of 22 to 13.

The Champions presented an all-star line-up, composed of Charlie Ward, ex-Notre Dame star; Reck, ex-Cornell player, and May, forwards; Phil Loucks, who captained the Dickinson College team in 1923, centre; D'Agostino, formerly of the Aloysius Club, Hosey, ex-St. Joseph's College star, Leo Breslinf ancl Paul Finske, Hilltop football inen, guards.

Much credit is due the Psi Omega team for its gallant fight against the Champs. The Tau Epsilon Phi fraternity also made a good showing in the league.

LOU LITTLE Director of .Athletics

The oyfthletic Association

GERALD MURPHY

H E Athletic Association represents the highest means of executive activity in which the students engage. It stands for the students and alumni of the university, who take an active interest in athletics,

and the control of them, and is presided over by a student duly elected by the As.sociation every year.

In its infancy the athletic association represented only the managers of various sports -who worked directly under the Faculty Director. They arranged games, etc., in much the same manner they do today, out when we consider how little organized sports were considered in 1870 we can imagine that the manager then had a much easier task than he does now.

In 1891 the association began to organize in a formal way with a president, secretary, and treasurer. It met in the spring and electing Mr. Conde Nast as President and made the first steps to the organiza­tion we now have.

This form continued in vogue until 1919 when a regular constitution was drawn up calling for a Board of Control of Athletics to consist of nine members, three Faculty, three Alumni, and three Students. This board was to have control of athletics, hiring coaches, awarding letters and in fact transacting all business connected with the highly developed system of athletics that exists today. This Constitution went into effect in 1920 under Mr. Murray McElheney who was the President at that time and has continued •with very few modifications ever since.

A n innovation, however, went into effect last December, with the creation of the Director of Athletics office, which was awarded to Mr. Louis Little, also varsity football coach. H e has a three-year contract.

The present organization consists of the present men: GERALD F. MURPHY, '25 President

CAPTAIN-ELECT HEGARTY AND CAPTAIN SHEEHAN

METZGAR FLAVIN

Football By G. G O R D O N BARRY, '25

JIM McLARNEY

H F year 1924 saw the rise of a new George­town football sun o'er the horizon as the dawn of a promising season began to break. It was a far brighter planet of its kind than

the hazy one of the previous year when D a m e Fortune so rudely frowned upon the energetic Hilltopper grid­

iron aggregation. With a well-balanced schedule and a most efficient

head coach, Lou Little, serving his first year on the banks of the historic Potomac, as initial incentives, the Georgetown pigskin aspirants lost little time in getting to work once the season opened for them.

A step, which greatly favored the Hoya moleskin wearers, was taken this season with the establishment of a pre-season training camp. Shortly after Labor Day more than a score of invited candidates reported at Woodberry Forest, \'a., to Captain Fred Sheehan

and Coaches Little and his assistant, Mike Palm. With the resumption of classes in the University, all returned to Washington

shifting the scene of work-outs and scrimmages. The opening test of the season for the charges of Coach Little, former ail-

American tackle at the Uni­versity of Pennsylvania, came on October 11, when, sweeping down in cyclonic fashion, the whirling"Tennessee Tornado" football squad of King College descended upon the National Capital to meet Captain Sheehan's cohorts.

These n e w c o m e r s from Bristol, Tenn., were a highly touted outfit and one full of scrap. It is reported they became wearied running up high scores against smaller colleges so decided to try faster company, hence George­

town. Though the " T o r n a d o "

blew violently, it did so in T H E CHEER LEADERS

vain, for the superior football knowledge and aggressiveness of the Hilltop rushers coupled with the redoubtable strength manifested by the Georgetown line forced the Southerners to content themseh'es with the short end of a 21 to 7 count.

Going on with the tide the Hilltoppers in a blaze of glory as they prepared for the coming contest with the Quantico Marines, known fondly to us as the "Leatherneck Gentlemen."

The usual color and spectacular attractions of other years featured this game in a no less degree of splendor.

The battle was keenly fought and not until the final whistle was the winner assured of victory. A latent power seemed to have come to the top in George­town's forward department, proving to be of inestimable value on the defense.

Despite the attempts of Herculean Tony Plansky to score field goals from mid-field and points nearer, Georgetown went scoreless, and had to bow before

M U R T A G H McCiR.ATH JAWISH

the success ot Lieutenants McQuade and Grox'es, who booted field goals for the

sum of six points which "The Soldiers of the Sea" totaled.

Fumbles at critical times seriously hurt G. U.'s scoring chances.

.An age-old adage tells us the sting of defeat smarts sorely, and if the outcome

of the Georgetown-Bucknell tilt is to be taken as a criterion there is considerable

truth in the maxim. This game marked the second time in as many weeks

that Georgetown had drained the sour dregs of defeat.

Figures and statistics compiled on the game and later published showed

conclusively that the Hilltop standard bearers outplayed their opponents from

Lewisburg, Pa., in all departments of the game. But the failure to take advantage

of openings coupled with frequent displays of poor generalship in face of the fact

that "Uncle Charlie" Moran's Keystone Staters made the most of e\-ery break

- was adequate material to gi\-e the \-isitors a win.

IP KEN VON AND PALM

Assistant Coaches

Again in this game Georgetown's line

proved itself to be impregnable beyond belief,

bringing to the fore considerable power that

apparently had been latent up to this point

of weekly competition.

The final count was Bucknell, 14; George­

town, 6.

Saturday, November 1st, journeying

down to Greenville, S. C , on the first foreign

game of the schedule, Georgetown handily

trounced Furman Institute, by a count of

20 to 0.

The entire squad that made the trip

saw action in this contest, thereby gaining

considerable experience under fire,

Hegarty, Metzger, halfbacks, and Minihan, center, on a scooped-up fumble,

accounted for the touchdowns.

November 8, 1924—a date that will long linger in the memories of m a n y a

Georgetown student and graduate.

Reaching practically the apex of the 1924 schedule the Georgetown eleven,

battling Penn on Franklin Field, for the first gridiron meeting of the two teams

since the early '90's, more than outdid itself in a display of defensive football

such as the Penn team had not met in any of its major games. Captain Fred

Sheehan and George Murtagh especially added to their laurels as did Nick Busch.

Their getting down under punts and hard, clever tackling was nothing short of

miraculous, and brought the alumni and students in the Georgetown cheering

section shouting to their feet.

T o Eddie Brooks, goes a lion 's share of the honors for his booting of the ball.

Frequently when it was a case of near-defeat, the Medford lad's toe successfully

served the Hilltop machine to drive the pigskin through the breeze out of danger.

Penn was outpunted almost two yards to one.

Penn's lone count, came in the closing minutes of the last quarter when a

Red and Blue back kicked a field goal. Georgetown made a heroic stand in the

fourth quarter that will not soon be forgotten.

Georgetown successfully brought its home season to a close, November 15th,

when it dow-ned the heavy Third Corps A r m y team, 6 to 0. The battle was staged

THE PENN GAME

[ 3S2 1

•PHE PENN G A M E

under most tinfavorable weather conditions. A steady down-pour of rain turned

the field into a soggy ciuagmire. To-ward the end of the last half King AA'inter

made his presence felt via a light snow fall.

There is no doubt the final score is not indicative of Georgetown's worth as

against the Soldiers. In the second quarter,Tony Plansky, of Georgetown, and

Pat Timberlake, of the opposition, engaged in a punting duel, the former excelling.

The Hilltoppers lone count came in the second period, when "Buck O'Neil,

former Bellefont Academy star, received a punt, securely tucked the leather under

his wing and dashed SO yards in deer-like fashion for a touchdown.

Ed Herbert, sports writer, of the New Orleans .States, speaking of the

Georgetown-Loyola game played in the latter's stadium, says of the fray,

"Loyola's AVolves, game to the core, climbed the Hilltops of Georgetown and

looked the vaunted Blue and Gray line in the eye with an unwavering look; but

game as Loyola was, determined as every Maroon could possibly be, they were

not strong enough to match their strength against tho.se mighty invaders, and

Loyola's doughty little band tumbled down the hillside, snuffed under by a

score of 25 to 0. They were bruised and battered by a line that compares with

any on this broad continent of ours, but they were not outgamed nor outfought."

This tells the story pretty well.

The curtain of the 1924 football season was wrung down, November 29th,

when Georgetown and Fordham, met in the concluding game of both teams'

schedules. The fray was colorless, owing to bad weather conditions similar to

those encountered in the Third Corps Army game.

When the final whistle had been sounded and it was settled that Fordham

was the winner, 9 to 6, the result was considerable of a surprise to Georgetown.

THE PENN GAME

[383]

Andy Gaffey netted Georgetown's six points on a touchdown while Zev

Graham, gathered Fordham's nine.—and then—FINIS. And so it was all over but the cheering. The work of the Hilltop gridiron

players this season was replete with magnetic interest in a degree without pre­cedent for some time. It was an entirely creditable performance, each participant doing his bit generously for the liest results. And now that likeable Coach Lou Little; his thorough assistants for the backfield, Mike Palm and Bill Kenyon; Captain Fred Sheehan, reticent and modest Blue and Gray leader, along with the chorus of Georgetown moleskin wearers have appeared for the last time this year before their warm supporters and followers to receive the final plaudits, a mighty and lasting testimonial of admiration and pride will, no doubt continue to be forthcoming. These gallant and progressive thespians strove diligently to put Georgetown back in its proper place on the football stage. For next year— praeclara speramus!

Freshman Football J O H N D . O' R E I L L Y , Coar// J O S E P H M C L A I X , Captain

T has been frequently asked why a more elaborate Frosh schedule is not arranged. To this, the answer is given that it is the purpose of the restriction to prepare the first-year candidates for their coming seasons on the varsity and more thoroughly instruct them in the style of play in vogue at Georgetown.

John D. O'Reilly, Physical Director and head baseball, track and basket­ball coach, tutored the Yearlings this season, his first in such a capacitv on the Hilltop.

The schedule which included three games got under way, October 11th, when the Cubs jaunted down to Newport News where they took the measure of the Apprentice School by a count of 13 to 6.

One of the games that newcomers always look forward to with an unusual degree of eagerness and interest is the contest with the Navy Plebes. The score of this fray was the same as in the previous game, 13 to 6.

The Georgetown yearlings outplayed the embryo Admirals but the Middies took advantage of every break and forced the Hilltoppers to fight hard for what­ever laurels they gained.

Captain McLain and Bing Miller were the outstanding players on the line, the pair being in nearly every play. A feature of the game was Bobby Dwyer's 50-yard run for touchdown.

And then T H E big tussle of the season—the annual Freshman-Sophomore tilt. Not lacking the color or enthusiasm of a World's Series contest the elevens

took to a muddy field, more a quagmire, and set off the fireworks. For four gruelling and trying periods the Freshman team worked at a heart­

rending pace in an effort to squeeze out a victory but all to no avail. "The Battle of Caps," as it is properly termed, ended in a scoreless tie. Ordinarily such a knotted count would mean that the Yearlings would have to continue wearing the dinky skull caps, but through the generosity of their ojiponents in recognition of the Froshs remarkable i)laying and commendable sportsmanship throughout the contest the ])rivilege to discrown themselves ot the embarrassing headwear wtis granted.

[ 386 ]

"basket-ball

THOMAS DALY Manager

| H E N the first call for practice was issued

by Coach John O'Reilly early in .Septem­

ber, the student Ixxly shook its head at

the squads' chances of success.

Albert Brogan was elected to captain the 1925

squad in place of Captain elect O'Keefe who was

unable to return to school. This left the center

]3osition open to the best man.

Jim .Sweeney was on hand and a forward berth

was crossed off the list of unoccupied. .Sweeney proved

to be one of the best Blue and Gray scorers of recent

years. Of cour.se one of the guard posts was taken

care of by the new captain.

F'arley and McNaney of last years squad, were out

for the remaining forward position, while Ryan was

the leading candidate for the guard job. This left

O'Reilly's problem, a center, a forward and a guard.

As the first move in solving the problem, William Finley was assigned the

tap-off position. Finley is a Freshman and came to the Hilltop with an enviable

record as a court player, and immediately showed the vacancy left by O'Keefe

should no longer be a source of worry.

After a fight for the right guard it was handed to Pete Gitlitz, former Ail-

American guard.

The Georgetown team opened its season in the Ryan G y m with the Wake

Forest College five from North Carolina, coached by Henry Garrity, of Princeton,

and rated one of the best in the .South. The deacons showed a strong defense in

the opening stages of the game, until the scoring combination of Brogan and

Sweeney got smoothed out. The points began to roll up and the final whistle

found Georgetown on the long end of a 32 to 26 score.

The following night the quintet from Western Maryland College came to

the Hilltop in all their glory. Once more the .scoring combination was slow in

starting but the final score read 25 to 17, in favor of the Hilltoppers.

The next week the charges of Coach O'Reilly played host to the St. Francis

five, of Loretta, Pa. The Franciscans got the jump on the home team and for

a while it looked like a battle. But once more the scoring spree started and

Georgetown led both at half time and at the finish. The latter score was 36 to 24.

The fourth opponent and fourth victim of the Blue and Gray was the St.

Joseph's College pas.sers from Philly. The local talent played with the visitors

and won an uninteresting game, 22 to 16.

The Carson-Newman team visited the Ryan gym and shared the fate of the

previous visitors. However, they put forth the best exhibition of basket-ball

since the Wake Forest team made its appearance.

[ 387 ]

FARLEY SWEENEY RYAN CAPTAIN BROGAN

The first real major contest on the schedule was the game with F"ordham. The N e w Yorkers came to Washington with a clean slate of twelve victories and left with the slate just as clean, plus a victory. The sterling play of the charges of Coach Kelleher was too much for the Georgetown boys, who had not yet met such fast company. However the Maroon did not have things their own way as the clo.seness of the 22 to 15 score indicates. It was undoubtedly the best played game in the recent Blue and Gray campaigns.

Bucknell furnished the opposition in the closing contest of the season on the home court and were outlcassed by the Hilltoppers to the tune of 27 to 17-

FINLEY McNANEY GITLITZ VUCKMANIC

[388]

The final game of the year was played at Annapolis against the crack Navy quintet. The Navy boys were treated to a surprise when after they had a six point lead, the Hilltoppers came from behind, tied the score and lead by five points at half-time. However the great reserve strength of the middies proved too much and the last half and final score found the blue and gray trailing the short end of 33 to 18 count.

In looking over the summary of the season it is interesting to note Sweeney lived up to expectations by leading the scorers. The Jersey boy was the best offensive player on the squad. Pete Gitlitz shone on the defense like a star in the sky. The New Haven boy performed wonderfully all season. Captain Brogan played a stellar game at guard and aided the offense materially. Finley held down the center post in fine fashion, McNaney and Farley took care of the other forward post in their usual bang-up fashion, while Ryan, Flavin and Gunn were called upon often to relieve the regulars.

Expansion in Athletics By ROYMANE W. WALDRON

President G Club {Former Star Athlete)

I[jp''~'°''^'°^ EORGETOWN is entering a new era. In every branch of university H ^ ^ ^ i activity the pulse beat appears to be stronger and stronger. There is

H ^ ^ H | I a closer knit organization, a better feeling between alumni and ISfxL...-jgri:.'| students, and an esprit de corps which is beginning to show the results

long hoped for and expected by men all over the world who are keenly interested in the Blue and Gray and its activities in every branch.

Of vast importance to the general run of the alumni is the decision to adopt

a definite policy in athletics, to appoint a director of athletics and to begin that much hoped for ground work that has been the aim of Georgetown men for

many years. Georgetown must eventually take its rank with the leading institu­tions in the country no matter what line of endea\'or is chosen.

The rapid growth of the endowment campaign, the successful launching of a greater institution for chemical research will be followed by a general and generous expanse in all lines of work.

As President of the Letter Club, I can express the sentiment of the organiza­tion as being whole-heartedly for the university in its aims, ambitions and expansion. Let m e say that Georgetown is on the right track.

The splendid choice of Lou Little as director of athletics, the fine record made by Little's football team, the exceptional record maintained by John O'Reilly's track team and basket-ball team, is but an indication of the success of the mo\'e. W e look for the continued development of Georgetown in athletics, the installation of a fine groundwork for future teams and the wholehearted support of faculty, students and alumni.

I a m speaking for Georgetown men all over the country when I give the opinion of the AA'ashington Letter Club organization. It is felt here that George­town 's rightful place is at the top in every line of endeavor. To this end George­town men are giving of their time, interest and money to make this accomplish­

ment in the capital of the nation a veritable monument to the Blue and Grav. Georgetown men will rally to the support of the institution and its just

causes whenever needed. The time is at hand for a united effort toward this end. The Letter Club feels that it has done its bit toward the accomplishment of the

aims and ambitions of the institution in every way and only hopes it WHII be able

to continue to put in its best efforts toward the completion of a greater university.

T H L F T I C S at Georgetown today are not much different

than they were some twenty-five years ago, up on the old hilltop. I ha\'e been watching

the performances of the Blue and Gray athletes on the track and field, in football and in baseball, and it certainly does an old Georgetown alumnus good to read of their splendid showing. When a fellow gets out of crjllege, he is

sometimes apt to forget the doings of his old .Alma Mater, owing to pressure of busi­ness and what not, but it surely does the old loyal graduates heart good to see that his college is still holding its own in the Intercollegiate athletic world.

I can remember back in nineteen hundred, as if it were yesterday. In those days Georgetown had men on her track team as Billy Holland, in the quarter mile, now a practicing doctor; Joe Reilh', now athletic director of the Kansas City .A. C ; Jack Sheridan, now a leading illustrator; Eddie Mulligan, at present a practicing attorney in the west, and the writer himself in the sprints. In the baseball and football worlds there were such men as .Arthur Devlin, Doc. White, the former Chicago White .Sox pitcher; Charley Moran, now athletic director at Catholic l'niversity, and a host of other celebrities.

Back in the old da\'s, all of rieorgetown's athletic teams won their share of \'ictories. In the Intercollegiates the quarter mile and one hundred yard sprint were won consecutively for three years, while the Blue and Gray baseball nine was champion of the collegiate world, and the football games with A'irginia, then Georgetown's big game, will always remain a classic with the old grad.

Getting back into more modern day athletics. Coach John O 'Reilly has always given the Blue and Gray a strong baseball team, while Coach Exendine's work with the ele\'en will never be forgotten.

Ne\'er will Georgetown's fame in the Olympics be dimmed. W e have only to recall the fine work of Bob Le Gendre, who created a new world's record in the running broad jump. Georgetown is going ahead with leaps and bounds. It is up to the present day athletes to keep the Blue and Gray flag waving in

the front rank. The prospects for all of the athletic teams look brighter than e\'er during the

coming year and it is the duty of ever\- wearer of the Blue and Gray to strive harder than e\'er. Ever^'one is watching their work on gridiron, diamond, and

track. By all means keep up the good work and make Georgetown's star brighter than ever in the college athletic firmament.

The World's Qreatest Qollege Track Team RACK—at the mention of that necroman­

tic word breasts swell, tongues loosen and not only a proud student body and alumni of Georgetown enthuse and laud, but the entire track world. East and West, pays

glowing tribute to the achievements of the Blue and Gray's 1924-25 board and cinder path representatives.

Directing the progress and largely responsible for the team's unparalled success was the indomitable John D. O'Reilly, Georgetown's superior track coach. Before mentioning the outstanding stars however, we must pause a little and say that every- man, luminary and novice, gave his best and the Blue and Gray is proud of them all.

Running his last year as a Hilltopper, the peerless George Marsters again performed in his usually bril­liant manner, as did his team-mates Captain George Kinnaly, Emerson Norton, Jimmie Burgess, A'ernon Ascher, John Holden, AVilliam Sulli\'an, Edward Swinburne, Edward Brooks, Tony Plansky, William Dowding, Harry Helme and the Haas brothers, Ray­mond and John.

The 1924 outdoor season started with a complete triumph over the mountaineer tracksters from the University of West A'irginia. Georgetown excelled in both field and track and won easily by the score of 82 to 52. Next came the Penn Relays. If the Uni­versity of Pennsylvania had offered a point trophy, the Blue and Gray assuredly would have annexed it. The Freshman mile relay team composed of Swinburne, McClain, Estevez, and Eastman scored a decisive victory in the yearling event and William Dowding, competing his first year for G. U., leaped 23 feet, 103 2 inches for the top honors in the broad jump. The performances of the mile relay, two-mile relay, sprint medley and sprint relay teams were of a highly meritorious nature, all four aggregations just barely Ijeing nosed out for first place in their respective races. Tony Plansky, Georgetown's Pentathlon ace, placed third, and, Harry Helme, running gamely all the way finished fourth in the two-mile run against an unusually large and brilliant field.

Traxeling up the Hudson, the G. V. tracksters forced upon the U. S. Military Academy their first defeat since the inception of track athletics at the West Point institution. The meet was a triangular affair, the other participant being M . I. T. George­town garnered 59 points, .Army was second with 53 points, and M . I. T. finished third with a total of 23 points. Of superior prominence among the day's performances was the work of Tony Plansky in the

field events, the Boston boy collecting 13 counters, the largest individual total. Bill Dowding, won the 100-yard dash, in the marvelous time of 9 and 4/5th seconds. Georgetown placed one, two, three in the half-mile with Marsters leading. It was two and three for G. U. in the quarter, and one and two in the broad jump. Helme and Sullivan turned in stellar performances in the two and one mile races respectively, and in winning the pole vault, Dave .Shannon leaped to a height of 12 feet, 4 /2 inches.

In overwhelmingly defeating the Navy in a dual match at Annapolis the Blue and Gra\' track team took first place in e\'ery e\'ent but one. The score of 77 to 39 clearly indi­cates the supremacy of the Washington athletes. With only a small squad eligible for the outdoor intercollegiates at Harvard Stadium Georgetown nevertheless made its strength realized, and Raymond Haas competing in the 220-yard low hurdles covered both himself and his Alma Mater with glory in annexing the Intercollegiate title in that event.

It was a glorious finish for a brilliant season when Emerson Norton, Jimmy Burgess and William Dowding placed in the Final Olympic trials at Harvard Stadium, thereby becoming members of the U. S. Olympic Team. T w o former Georgetown stars also qualified, the same being Bob Le Gendre and Jimmy Connolly. Among the colleges

Championships at New York acquired a total of 19 points as compared to the winning number of 27 scored by the large N. Y. A. C. squad. Captain Kinnaly garnered the 300-yard title and Holden won the crowd in the 600-yard event. Paul Herlihy placed second to the latter, and Norton ran up a total of 9 against a worthy field in the shot-put, high jump and pole vault. .At the Fordham games two nights later, Jimmy Burgess, scratch man, easily helped himself to the 440-yard dash, and on January 21st, at the -St. Joseph games in Newark Georgetown 's crack one mile relay team com­posed of Captain Kinnaly, A'ernon Ascher, Paul Herlihy and Jimmy Burgess took the measure of Holy Cross, Boston College and Fordham.

The Brooklyn College games on January 24th, was a banner moment for the Blue and Gray's relay teams. It was at that meet our wonderful quartet of half-milers came into their share of prominence when Brooks, Holden, Sullivan, and Marsters, matching strides with the Boston College outfit, world-record holders, and Yale, defeated both their opponents and shattered all existing records for the distance. Their time was 7.47 and 2 5 seconds.

However, the Hull collegians were clearly out­classed and the Blue and Gray hung up another record for the distance, breaking their own record by three seconds.

two G. U. tracksters at the Western Union games in New York. A'ernon Ascher won the 500-yard race and Jimmy Burgess was a close second. The first major race of the season took place at the Boston Knights of Columbus gairies on February 7th. The occasion was the competition for the Cardinal O'Connell trophy. Georgetown's one-mile team having gained tw-o of the three legs neces­sary for the permanent ownership of the cup, won the race which was at a distance of 1,560 yards, and brought the trophy back to the Hilltop.

The New York A. C. meet was again characterized by the Georgetown triumphs. Walter Gegan scored the first victory of the evening -when he dre-vv away from the field in the home stretch to win a 1,000-yard race. Edward Swinburne and William Sullivan also won handily in two other 1,000-yard runs. Burgess placed second in the Buernmeyer 500-yard dash. Norton was third in the high jump and Helme took third honors in the two-mile. Then, Marsters won the 1,000-yard run and Burgess the "Great Suburban 440" at the Knights of .St. Anthony games.

The annual Georgetown meet was the next match in order and the Blue and Gray runners easily won the college point trophy. The outstanding perfor­mances in that meet were John Haass' victory in the 50-yard dash, Gaffey's winning of the 150-yard special race and Burgess' victory in the 400-meter

special. Walter Gegan fought his way through a large field in the half-mile run and finished a close second to Ray Dodge of the Illinois .A. C. George Marsters ran second to HelftVich over the 800-meter route in world's record time, the race being a thriller all the way.

Georgetown made an invasion of the West when a squad of nine men traveled to l^rbana. 111., to compete at the University of Illinois, Indoor Relay Carnival on the evening of February 28th. The one-mile and two-mile relay teams in defeating the pick of the West hung up new carnival records for their respective distances. The peerless Norton, in winning the all-around championship, smashed Harold Osborne's old record. Ray Haas, in addition to running on the one-mile team, won the 70-vard low hurdles.

THEN CAME THE CROWNING EVENT OF THE SEASON—THE GOAL AND .AMBITION OF THE ENTIRE COLLEGE TRACK WORLD, THE INTERCOLLEGIATES AT N E W YORK. It was at this meet that Georgetown made its last triumphant stand of the indoor season and gained for itself the I N T E R C O L L E G I A T E TITLE. The world record breaking race of the two-mile team in addition to the record performance of William Dowding in the broad jump, and the one-mile relay, in garnering the individual titles were the high lights of the Georgetown victory. Emerson Norton excelled in the field scoring a first in the high jump and second place in the pole vault.

baseball P..ADITION is often difficult to maintain.

I Each succeeding year the Georgetown

baseball squad faces the responsibility to

keep up the record of preceding teams.

To them falls the task of continuing the meteoric pace

which has been set by the championship clubs of

past seasons. Last year to those who \'iew success

from the statistician point of view, our record was fair.

But to one who closely followed the team this state­

ment is not a fair one. Our standing of nine games won

and se\'en lost gixes one the impression of mediocrity.

However such was not the case for the team was all

a Georgetown team could he and our reputation on the

diamond is well-known throughout this countr\'.

lOSEPH BRENN.AN Coach O'Reilly assembled a formidable team from

Manager a few \'eterans and comparatixeh' as few rookies.

The loss of such men as Sheedy, .Sheridan, Florence, Flaxin, Malle>' and others

was a terrible blow and to fill these seemingly

irreplaceable \'acancies was a Herculean task.

But he assembled a smooth running machiner\'

with Captain Murphy, Jenkins, Jones, Tabor,

L'rann and Mudd as mainstays and the pick

of the new-comers for the supports.

Big Jim Cunningham, Sukeforth, AIcGowan

and Murtagh composed the catching squad.

Sukeforth bore the brunt of the work. His

ability to work pitchers coupled with his good

stickwork and a keen knowledge of the game

won him the place. Cunningham was handi­

capped the entire season with a bad arm but

he did some good work pinch hitting.

McGowan was the relief catcher.

The pitching staff was one of the best in

the annals of Hilltop diamond activities.

Homer Jenkins, Ken Jones, McCarthy and

Tabor were survi\'ors of last season. Jenkins

twirled in his customary great style. Some of

the most brilliant work of the year was per­

formed by Jones on mound duty. He left just

prior to the Northern trip to join the Detroit

Tigers and though he left a large gap we had

several good ones anxious to get the job.

McCarthy, Brennan and Gillespie rounded ELLERTtt.N UR.IN.N. Captain

[405]

out the staff. McCarthy was

responsible for s o m e well-

pitched games which found

him a steady berth on the

squad. F r o m the Fresh­

men ranks we acquired Gil­

lespie who proved to be an

excellent relief twirler. His

need of experience however

kept him from taking a regu­

lar turn. Don Brennan, a

new acquisition from Maine,

gifted with a world of speed

and endurance was really one

of the luminaries of the season.

In the Holy Cross game he

displayed such rare form that DON BRENNAN ^^^ proteges of Jack Barrie

were minus any runs until the closing stanzas of the game. He should prove a

great asset next year.

The only survivor in the infield was Urann. The brilliant shortstop blos­

somed forth into one of the greatest little ball chasers seen hereabouts. He w-as

the nucleus about which O'Reilly built up a wonderful infield. M u d d who had

chased liners in the center garden the previous season, was moved into cover

the first sack. Ryan at second led the team in batting with an average more like

a fielding average than a batting one. The hot corner was well-guarded by Jimmy

Quinn who had played stellar ball on the Freshman team.

In the gardens we had Captain Murphy, Alberts and Hagerty and Murray,

the last two alternated at right field. The general all-round good work which was

characteristic of Captain Eddie, was evident in his work last season. Alberts

was another good wielder of the willow, but he particularly shone in the field.

The right field pasture was ably held down by Jack Hagerty stellar half-back

and Captain-elect of the 1924 football team. His speed in co\'ering his territory,

his stick-work and base running did much to garner the Hilltoppers many needed

tallies. Murray was an alternate and in those games in which he participated his

work was above reproach. He is rated as one of Washington's best outfielders

and he kept his record intact. Then we must not forget Trainer Pike Albaugh

who kept the men continually fit. Sore arms, bruises and the usual number of

injured hands and fingers were conspicuous by their absence, thanks to Monsieur

Albaugh.

And so once again, Georgetown ushered in the baseball with a bang. Bowdoin

College of Maine was snowed under an avalanche of hits and runs which mounted

up to a 26 to 1 victory for the Blue and Gray. Jenkins held the visitors in

check, turned over the reins in the closing stanzas from w h o m the single

tally was made. Alberts led the hit brigade with four out of five, one home run.

[ 40() ]

The scheduled games with

Amherst, Vermont and Frank­

lin-Marshall were all called off

because of inclement weather.

But the following week we

journeyed over to Annapolis

where after nine innings of

thrilling baseball our hopes

for a perfect season were

shattered by a defeat of 4 to 3

at the hands of the middies.

Jones did excellent work on

the mound only allowing seven

hits, but two costly fielding

errors and an error of omis­

sion cost us the game.

Harvard was severely squelched by our repenting team. They laid on

Casto's, the Crimson twirler, offering to the extent of eight hits and eight runs.

Once again Alberts drove one over the center field bank for a homer, but he

wasn't alone by any means, as Jenkins, who pitching one of his best games, also

lost one in that vicinity.

The bulldog, of Yale, took a good trimming form "Hoya" and her followers

as Ken Jones gave six sparse hits that brought only two runs, one due to an infield

error. A triple, then Mudd doubled, Ryan took too many strikes and retired.

Hagerty came through with another triple and Jones and Murphy singled putting

over a third of our quota. A four-ply hit by Urann followed by Sukeforth brought

the final total to nine.

W e were administered another wound when Lebanon Valley sprung the

unexpected and scalped us for a seven to three defeat. Our offensive made an

early drive and put over three tallies in the second. But from then on Wolfe,

of the Pennsylvanian outfit, silenced our batters and led a drive on our pitchers

which won them the game.

Dame Fortune gave us another jolt in the Lafayette team. It wasn't until

the sixth frame that we were able to pierce the strong defense of the visitors and

then our spurt was short-lived. Urann tripled to deep center and Sukeforth

scored him w-ith a single but was thrown out a moment later in an attempt to

steal second. The final score was 5 to 2.

W e came back with new life in our game with West A'irginia. No runs

and six hits was the concession Ken Jones made the visitors. As for our side

of the ledger twelve runs, 8 of which were made] in the opening frame, and

fifteen hits was the final count for the day. Captain Murphy started the game

in true Georgetown fashion by clouting the first offering of the Mountaineer

twirler for a home run. Jones and P'edericci, who took Quinn's place at third

also drove one apiece out of the park.

[ 407 ]

.An example of the never-say-die spirit of the team

was shown in the following game with Gettysburg

College, a first rate ball club. With the score 2 to 0,

against us and the contest rapidly drawing to a close,

we started in to work on Rohrbaugh the visitors

moundsman, and won out by one run.

AA'est A'irginia AA'esleyan was not so difficult a

task as our recent opponents and we took them into

camp letting them down with 2 runs while we garnered

11. Don Brennan pushed over his fast ball mixed with

a few curx'cs so that two measly singles was all that

the guests could get. Jack Hagerty ran all the way

out to the trees in right field to rob Knight of a sure

homer. The final home game pro\'ed to be easy for the

Blue and Gray ball chasers as they took the measure

of the up-state boys to the tune of 14 to 0. Alberts

and Mudd deserve mention for their hitting while l'rann and Captain Murphy did pretty work in the field.

Five games were played on the road the one with

Holy Cross was the most important. Don Brennan

held the Worcester boys to three hits till the eighth

inning. With the score seven to three in our favor in

the eighth, Brennan -whose fast ball was being handi­

capped by the wet, showed signs of weakening. McCarthy was ushered in

to replace him, but Barry's men were beyond control and after the cloudburst

of hits had spent itself we were losers by a 10 to 7 score. Brennan did excellent

work and the entire team supported him at all times. Our bats were sharpened

for Ownie Carroll, the famous Holy Cross hurler. W e slammed his offerings for

twelve hits and the seven runs but he persevered and his team mates pulled

him through. W e took Boston College for a rough ride finally dropping them after we had

put over seven tallies to their three. Mudd, Urann and Ryan shone both on the

field and at bat. Jenkins gave them five hits, easing up the last three innings.

A different A'ale team than what we had played earlier in the season battled

us for nine good innings of baseball and finally subjected us to accept a one to

nothing defeat. Pond and Brennan fought a pretty duel for ten innings, the

All-America half-back finally coming out on the right end of the score. Six hits

were not enough to win us the game while three bingles did the trick for the New

Haven bo\'s. Our game with West Point was called off because of rain and we ended up

the season breaking even with the Salem (Mass.) team. \A'e closed the season by

trimming the same team 14 to 0. In which game everybody ran wild, hitting the

offerings of three pitchers all oxer the lot while Gillespie held them at bay, just

gl\'ing them two singles.

[408]

It is a poor policy to predict good things, the fact, yet we braxe all criticism and prophesy an excellent season for Georgetown this current year. Though our pitching staff is considerably weakened due to the loss of Jones, and Jenkins, still we are depending much upon new material for moundsmen. The infield is intact as Mudd, Ryan, Captain-elect Urann playing his last year, and Quinn are back. There will be competition right on, as Bucky O'N'eil a newcomer is rated as a wonderful infielder. Then there are last year subs: Donoxan. Sweeney, \'ega and a few more newcomers who give promise of making it warm for the regulars. The outfield loses Captain Murphy, but retains .Alberts and Hagerty. Among the candidates which reported for opening practice were Tip O'N'eil, Stegal, Graham Foggarty, Bragg and others.

lUE to the -weather man's persistent whims, Georgetown's tennis schedule suffered appreciably during the 1924 season. Yet great credit must be given Manager T o m Slattery, -vv'ho by his untiring efforts arranged a splendid schedule.

Despite nature's continual rebuffs, the Hilltoppers refused to become dis­couraged. On M a y 22nd, Rutgers' racqueters journeyed down to engage the Hilltoppers, but due to rain the match had to be called off. Unfavorable -weather conditions also forced the cancellation of our match with Navy a week later.

But the silver lining finally showed through the clouds when Georgetown entertained the aggregation from Johns Hopkins. Captain Kunkul made a most auspicious beginning by vanquishing the leader of the opposition in decisive style. Unfortunately Jim Becker was not so successful against his tall rival from Hopkins. The latter's long reach which made him almost invincible at the net finally decided the issue in his favor. However Georgeto-wn was given a lead when Lou Carran and Bill Illig won \-ictories in the concluding singles. In the doubles Johns Hopkins got a draw. Thus the first contest ended 4 to 2 in favor of Georgetown.

Hopes of another victory at the expense of North Carolina the following week were dampened by a heavy sho-wer which caused a postponement of the match.

Next they engaged George Washington. Kunkel and Illig were successful in their singles, but Becker, Carran and Haas succumbed, fighting to the last. Both Carran and Haas forced the issued to three sets, but the greater endurance of their opponents ultimately told. Tired, but not discouraged, Carran and Haas were still formidable as a doubles team. .After a short period of rest, they returned to the court, this time in doubles. Their aggressive play brought

them a well-deser\'ed victory. The Hatchetites finally came to the fore, and the

Hilltoppers lost the match by one point.

In the Middle .Atlantic Intercollegiate Kunkel and Becker brought great

honors to the Blue and Gray. In the face of the sternest opposition, the George­

town leader fought his way to the finals, where he was beaten for the singles

championship by Flourney, of the University of A'irginia. The beautiful team

work of the Kunkel-Becker team was responsible for their fine showing in the

doubles tournament, in which they won the runner's-up trophy.

The Hilltoppers were forced to cancel several of their last matches, due to

the unexpected closing of school.

By graduation Georgetown suffered the loss of two of its best men. Captain

Paul Kunkel and Jim Becker. A most capable man was chosen to succeed

Kunkel in the person of Le-wis Carran, newly-elected President of the

M . A. I. C. T. A. Among the most promising candidates are W . Clare, T o m

Daly, Jack Mountain and W . Hoffman, who formerly starred at Central High

School. The schedule is being rapidly filled out by Manager Joseph Gorman.

Beside the matches already arranged negotiations are under way with Pennsyl­

vania, Rutgers, and Navy.

With the assurance of a fine schedule and Captain Carran, Illig and Haas as

a nucleus for next year's team, Georgetown's tennis prospects are fine for a cham­

pionship in 1925.

The teams efforts were crowned with success in all these dual matches.

The Middle states title came to Georgetowm, and later the team was picked

to represent the Third Corps Reserve Officers Training Corps in the War Depart­

ment match. N o results are obtainable for this match, as firing has not been

completed.

The team opened the season with a prone match, competing against A'. P. I.

Georgetown won with a perfect score. The schedule was resumed on February

8th and Carnegie bowed to Georgetown in the first of the series of four position

matches. Dre.xel met defeat in a prone-standing encounter.

Georgetown turned back Pittsburgh next, and then St. John's of .Annapolis.

Following this match the Hilltoppers walloped John's Hopkins, breaking the

triple tie in the Middle States league. This same week the first stage of the

intercollegiate match -was fired. Georgetown's score -was 992x1,000.

Lafayette was the next Blue and Gray victim, putting them at top place

in the intercollegiate race. The following week Gettysburg lost to the Donohue

crowd.

The final match was with George Washington l nix'ersity, which decided the

championship of the Middle States League. Georgetown won. A new league

record -was established when the Blue and Gra\' shot 1,944 to their opponents

1,920.

The season was perhaps the luost successful the rifle team has e\er known, and

all praise and credit is to the man who made it so. Sergeant Michael J. Donohue,

whose ability to shoot, and overcome difficulties won him the Distinguished Cross

Overseas. All thanks to Sergeant Mike.

HIS veteran (Lou Little) of 172 football games, now thirty years of

age, is a typical modern athletic director—well-educated, well-

groomed, with a voice pitched in modulated tones and thoroughly

versed in the sport which he played so well."—George C. Carens,

Boston Transcript.

"A running attack through the line after a fake forward pass is the favorite

strategy of Coach Lou Little, of Georgetown."—Ed Thorp, noted football

official, Boston Globe.

"I thoroughly enjoyed m y first season of college coaching," declared Little

to a reporter, "because the boys were so willing to cooperate."

"Wonder what kind of weather they are having in Washington to have to

curtail football practice owing to the intense heat of the afternoon?" Sportsman,

Boston Globe.

"'Zube' .Sullivan, former Georgetown star, has been engaged to coach the

team (Gonzaga) and the outlook for a successful season is extremely bright."^

Shirley L. Povich, Washington Post.

"The steady way in which Pennsyh-ania is moving on in face of all obstruc­

tions is putting a lot of dash and pepper into the actixities of Lou Little and Mike

Palm up Georgetown -way."—In the Press Box with Ba.xter.

"Fordham will close its most successful season under the Gargan regime when

it tackles the Georgetown elexen at the Polo Grounds this Saturda>' in what

should prove one of the most colorful games seen in metropolitan circles this year."

Tom Ryan, Fordham Ram.

"The hearty welcome given Georgetown upon their arrix-al in N e w Orleans

not only made them feel at home, but also made them realize that the team they

were contesting with for gridiron honors was one composed of and backed by

men with true spirit of sportsmanship."—Loyola Maroon.

"Georgetown rooters were out in great numbers. There were sex'cral thou­sand in the north stand with a band, cheer leaders and everything. Georgetown had even a mascot in the form of a bull terrier. The dog was in high glee when the Washington athletes came out on the field. He tugged at the strap in an effort to get out on the gridiron with the Blue and Gra>' team.—Evening Public Ledger, November 8th.

"Midst the frantic cheers of her students and followers, Georgetown Uni­versity opened her 1924 football season with a sweeping victory over the highly touted King College eleven, at the Clark Griffith .Stadium, last Saturday after­noon, 21 to 7. It was a much improved brand of football over last vear, that the wearers of the Blue and Gray displayed as they swept down the field time and again."—W. C. Gillan, Hoya editor.

Headline—"Coach Moran's Bucknell Elexen Will Try to Throw Switch on Georgetown Express."—Barry, Hoya—and they did.

[416]

" A superb burst of speed in the last hundred yards by George Marsters of

Georgetown University saw him coming from quite a ways back in third place

to win the 1,000-yard run national indoor title tonight (March 5, 1924), in the

A. A. LI. championships at the 22nd Regiment Armory."—Thomas L. Cumiskey,

Universal Service Sports Editor.

"Let me tell you that Georgetown showed me the greatest forward passing

attack I have ever been up against. Flavin and Florence formed the niftiest

aerial combination I ever saw. W e knew they were going to throw the pass but

we couldn't stop them ."—Leo Prendergast, Lafayette player, in Brooklyn

Eagle.

"Herlihy started the season virtually unknown to a great many of the fans,

but his victory over Fitch a few weeks ago branded him as a real bright light.

The Georgetown wonder (Ascher) is a man who should do close to forty-eight

seconds flat during the outdoor season."—New York Evening Post.

"Oddly, four of Washington's best known basket-ball tutors were members

of the same team in their playing days, the Georgetown quint of 1909-10. They

were Fred Rice, Jim Colliflower, his brother George, and Fritz Schlosser."—Old

newspaper account.

"Hoya, Georgetown's official Boston bull terrier mascot, who amused so

many spectators at football games last fall, is to be entered in the National

Dog Show ."—Washington Post.

"Georgetown has not offered Washington such good November attractions

in years as are on the 1925 program."—By Louis A. Dougher, Washington Times.

"Pennsylvania's sixteen-year-old dream of an undefeated, untied football

team was almost ruined on F'ranklin field yeasterday. A fighting Georgetown

eleven came near applying the pin to the bubble."—Ed Pollock, Ledger.

"The Blue and Gray average for the Fordham game is pulled up considerably

by Connaughton, a 280-pounder. He will make quite a contrast to Minihan, who

weighs only 154 pounds."—New York Times.

"Georgetown's mighty gridiron warriors returned from the New Orleans

jaunt last night. The squad of 25 players was in great shape."—Arthur L.

Knapp, Washington Post.

"With the return of Plansky, the big game Saturday has taken on an added

attraction. He is the one man on the Georgetown .squad capable of coping with

the great Goettge, of the Marines, and a duel of stars is promised."—Washington

Post.

"Loyola's Wolves, game to the core, climbed the Hilltops of Georgetown

and looked the vaunted Blue and Gray in the eye with an unwavering look; but

game as Loyola was, determined as every loyal Maroon could possibly be, they

were not strong enough to match their strength against those mighty invaders,

and Loyola's doughty little band tumbled down the hillside, snuffed under by a

score of 25 to 0.—Ed Herbert, New Orleans states.

"And then there was Le Gendre, of Georgetown, with his broad jump record

at Columbus, of 25 feet 6 inches, one of the year's miracles."—Grantland Rice in

The Sportlight.

N official Cross Crountry team was introduced into Georgetown track realms last fall, when George Marsters, of Portland, Me., seasoned harrier, was unanimously elected captain of the squad for the 1924 campaign.

In Captain Marsters, Lilliputian pilot. Blue and Gray track devotees had a leader of the finest calibre. Last year, 1923, his initial in Cross Country com­petition, the steel-hearted plodder from the rugged hills of the Pine Tree State, competed in the I. C. A. A. cross country championship race, a distance of six miles, oxer the A'an Courtland Park course and finished sixth.

This past season, however, told a different story. Proving himself to be of the first magnitude again, Marsters, though failing to win the coveted first place, handily romped home third in competition with one of the fastest fields ever entered. Macaule>' .Smith of A ale, won the e\'ent.

In the dual meet held over at Annapolis, November 15th, with Navy, a few-weeks before the intercollegiates, Georgetown encountered little difficulty in winning. Coach O'Reilly's entire squad of harriers saw action in this event which the Hilltoppers took 17 to 38. The course was over a distance of four and a half miles.

I'R school days sun is setting and within a short time we will be

speeding to all parts of the globe, perhaps armed with a diploma and

a dogged determination that has characterized Georgetown men

since the dawn of her e.xistence. .Armed with a strong desire to succeed

and with our heads held high, we are about to plunge head-long into the

game of life, in a world that has seen our ilk come and go for centuries, and

smiled on some, and frowned on some, the some that would be frowned upon.

W'e ha\'e the advantage of being Georgetown men. The institution that gave

Edward Douglas White to the legal profession, Wilton Lacka\'e to the stage,

Willard Mack to the world of playwrights, and a thousand others equally as

brilliant in their chosen professions. Let us firmly rseolve to do her naught but

credit and follow in the footsteps of those who reflect glory on her name.

And now let us pause to express our grateful appreciation to those who helped

make our year book a success: Professor Maurer. the faculty advisor whose

interest and counsel were in\'aluable: Father Gallagher and Professor Fegan for

their cooperation: Mr. Moore of the Hilltop Facult\' for his aid in pro\'iding our

view section. Miss Hahn, of Edmonston's Studio, for her efificient efforts. The

Horn-Shafer Company, of Baltimore, for their splendid cooperation and The

John & Oilier Engra\'ing Co., of Chicago for their excellent work and material

assistance.

W'e trust we ha\'e o\'erlooked no one—if we ha\'e it is an error of the mind,

not of the heart, but we are going to press and time is fleeting. Goodbye.

Doing Your Best The call to every m a n to do his best has had no finer ex­

pression than this, penned by Josiah W e d g w o o d in 1787:

All works of taste must hear a -price in proportion to the skill, taste, time, expense and risk attending their inven­tion and manujacture. Those things called dear are, when justly estimated, the cheapest; they are attended ivith much less profit to the artist than tlnse ivhich everybody calls cheap. Beautiful forms and compositions are not made by chance, nor can tiiey ever, in any material, he made at small expense. A competition for cheapness, and not for excellence oi ivorkmanship, is the most frequent and certain cause of the rapid decay and entire destruction of arts and manufactures.

Following the principles laid down by Wedgwood has brought the dental profession from a lowly "trade," deeply infected bv charlatanism in 1839, to its present proud position—an acknowledged world beneficence.

In the earlier years its art outstripped its science. Its practitioners were keen for practical results and it had at its elbow a house willing and able to give it instruments and materials that helped the dentists to do their best.

From its beginning in 1844, the House of White has worked to prove that "the best is the cheapest," has refused to enter into "a competition for cheapness." Its proudest boast is that no one ever bought a poorly made article that wore its trade-mark.

Excellence of workmanship is as necessary for the ad­vancement of the dentist. But he cannot do his best with­out the best tools.
