EDITORIAL SN'T it peculiar to what extremes people will go when they wish to appear original? Take for instance the naming of a book or as it was in our case procuring a title for our "Annual." By common consent and uncommon assent, we hit upon the word, "Triangle." Is there anything more absurd and yet nothing is more to the point; we will go a little further, it takes in three points and still the idea is plane. Some members of 'the class of 1920 have affected to see in the word, "Triangle" something suggestive of school life; the more subtle minds have plunged deeper and seemed to have struck the word symbolic, that is, they look upon the word 'Triangle" as something that symbolizes certain phases of school life. It was left to the edFtor to make a composite picture from the mass of opinions submitted and he will try to express in a thought the ideas which in most minds prevailed. A triangle has 1three sides and three angles. T.here are three activities that fill up 1the life of the student; the study part, the athletic endeavor and the social end. If these three are well balanced, we have an equilateral triangle. If two Âˇof these, the social end and athletic endeavor rest upon the love of study as a base, we have an isosceles triangle. Whatever may be the outcome, we are determined that this edition of the "Annual" will be a right triangle. It all depends, of course, upon the view point. Let us hope i!:hat the class of 1920 have looked from the right angle. With this preamble we give it to the generous reading public. ALFRED DELOS HILLS, 1920, Editor.

The Rev. Brother Richard, President There is one to whom the entire student body of La Salle owe a debt of gratitude and that is our esteemed and loved President of the College, the Rev. Brother Richard. There was no form of college or high school activity proposed by the students which did not meet with his generous and hearty approval. In the name of the entire school body we take this occasion of showing that we are not unmindful of all that he has done for us, and trust that he Âˇ will be with us for many years to complete the work of putting La Salle among thÂˇe best in the state of Pennsylvania.

THE CLASS POEM Say, let us make this life worth while, Each day will bring us near 'the goal; Not in the fear of daily trial, If we are "captains of our soul." Oh, let us strive for higher things, Recording but the nobler thought; Conscious still of a good deed wrought. Leaving all that 'round us flings A tinge of all that's base and mean; Still will our hearts remain serene, Secure from sordid things terrene.

THE SENIOR CLASS-1920

The Rev. Bro. George Lewis As teacher of the senior class in the high school, Brother Lewis by his deep religious character and manly bearing, left an impress on our lives which we will cherish as long as we live. Though insistent on assiduity in all our class duties, he, nevertheless, made every effort to assist us in the long and weary path over which we had to travel. Believe us, when we say, Brother, that the interest which you took in us will not be forgotten and we take this occasion of testifying to you our esteem and our gratitude for all your acts of kindness shown us in this, the last year of our school course.

FRANCIS

ARMSTRONG

(Arm}!) JOSEPH PATRICK CARLIN (Sparrow) Philadelphia

Philadelphia Did you notice the last name? Armstrong? Well, that is as far as I can go and be prudent. But, Frank matriculated in dear old La Salle about 1914 , coming from St. Mary's Academy and fi tted in with a nice sense of proportion . . Frank has been more or less a social line and we noticed that at the various bas ketball games- but Frank is more than socially inclined . He figured largely when the football season started and we are sure he will come to the fore somewhere in the future. Frank has frequently spoken of the various phases of high finance and of experts in efficiency so we would not be surprised to see him launch forth in some enterprise of this nature. Of one thing we are sure, he will make good. Go to it, Frank, remember the world is mad e up of the fit and the strong.

Though the smallest student in the class, be is there, neverthe!ess with the goods. Joseph is a quiet, capable, alert young man who is eve r willing to do his best and the wonder of it all is, that he does it. Though a devourer of wild and wooly tales of the West, yet he manages to be interested in the more serious things of life. We are told that he will become an electrical engineer. If he does, he will surely revolutionize things in his chosen field . Go to it, young man, the opportunity for advancement was never so great as it is at present. The world wants good men, and the world will get a good one in Joseph . You have our best wishes for your success.

MARTIN .

FRANCIS CONNOR. Oak Lane, Pa.

MARTIN POWERS C RANE (Crane:y) Philadelphia In the fall of 1916, to be precise, on September 8, 1916, a smiling little boy wandered from St. Edward's School and p~e sented himself at La Salle. A t once he became a great favonte and as the years went by, he increased in popularity, and today, well Marty is there with the smile that won't come off. Martin is the only student who has the courage to talk back to all the professors ; why he has. even been known to argue with the president of the college. But Marty is one game boy just the same. He qualified for the football team and made a pretty good showing as far as he went, but the trouble was, he didn't go far enough. Marty is some speaker, take it from me, having captu!ed the prize in elocution last year. From what we hear the medical profession will be strengthened by a brilliant young doctor in the future. It is thought that " M art" will enter the pre-medical course m La Salle next year. Well, here's best wishes for success.

]r. (Mart)

Martin F. Connor, ]r., our celebrated baritone, first saw the light of day in a select and residential district, calle~ G~rman town. After completing his grammar school educatJO~ m ~he village school. he hied himself to the Roman Catholic HI.gh School, where he remained for two years. He entered our thi!d year high in the fall of 1918 and was · soon a ~eneral fav~nte with the student body and an ideal student With the vanous professors. Martin is an authority on high class opera and of late has taken up singing, of which we ho~e to have _a specimen befo~e many days are over. Owing to his coolness m debates and his well-balanced judgment, he acts as a check on the more turbulent members of the class. Martin will enter business after a course in economics. We are sure his sterling qualities will win him success.

JOSEPH BERNARD DOUGHERTY (Do c) Philadelphia

CHARLES FRANCIS FARREL (Chas) Philadelphia

"Doc" hails from the Ascension parish, and after his grammar school training betook himself to the .Roman Catholic High School, where he was a notable figure in baseball, being the star twirler in two seasons. In the fall of 1918, Doc entered L a Salle and since then he has endeared himself to all by his quiet, manly ways and his desire to make La Salle a winner in the Catholic School League, especially in baseball. And believe me, he's making good. We do not know what the future will have in store for him, but from the earnest way that he tackles every difficulty he meets with, we know that he will make good. Some one told us that he may study law. We hope he does. At present we know he can put a few across, that no one else can handle, except the star catcher.

Charles hails from South Philadelphia and that is saying much. When he was of an age to decide for himself, Charles came to La Salle in September, 191 5, and has since showed himself a perfect gentleman, an apt scholar and an all-around good fellow. Though not actively interested in athletics, he has always been enthusiastic in all that relates to the glory of old La Salle and has been among the most ardent rookrs when there was need for help and encouragement. Charles has not decided in what future field he will enter, but of this we .know, that he will grace any profession. Well, Charles, "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party. Carry on."

EDWIN JOSEPH FEENY (Ed)

HENRY FRANCIS GRIPP (Honri) Philadelphia

Edwin made his debut in La Salle about the year I 916 and at once Edwin won-out. He created a very favorable impression by his quiet, modest, manly ways and became at once a great favorite among his fellow students. Always a brilliant student and yet alive to every form of athletic activity, he was among the top-notchers in every line of endeavor. Edwin hails from St. Stephen's School which has furnished some bright students to La Salle. You will hear of others in the same class who have also made good along the lines of athletics. While Edwin has made good in nearly every form of athletics, the crowning glory of his life was when he crossed the goal with the ball, thus winning the Catholic School Football Championship. From what we know, Edwin intends to go in for Civil Engineering. Well, Edwin, you are at the right station. We know that you will make goocl.

A particular hobby of "Honri" is to visit the library and there pore over rare volumes, to wit, Life and Judge. We often wondered where "Honri" got his wit and humor; we know now. One thing about him, he says he holds no brief for, well, we won't give you away, but we used to hear of a certain name that began with the letter C--, do you get us, "Honri"? He hasn't told us as yet what line of action will hold him when he graduates from high school. We would not be surprised, however, to hear of him going in for civil engineering. Well, "Honri" you are in the right shop. Go to it. While he did not figure in a great measure in athletic activities around the school, he was generally at all the games, where he was found among the most ardent rooters.

VINCENT BURKE !-!AYES (Nicl~) Philadelphia "Nick" hails from St. Stephen's School that has furnished a coterie of well-deserving students at La Salle. While not hguring largely in athletics, he was always ready to lend his moral support, whatever that means, to every form of activity around La Salle. "Nick" was a prominent debater in the junior Class of the high school. and . when we had a " Mock Trial" he showed rare forensic abilities . We would not be surprised to see him enter the legal profession, but then he has other irons in the fire. "Nick" is averse to long speeches, and in the class meetings, he generally moved to adjourn when it lost out in the issue. We feel sure that whatever profession he enters he will grace the occasion by rare qualities, which was a little long in coming to the surface, but which when they did come, proved there is something up his sleeve.

PHILIP JOSEPH HERBST ( Erbst) Philadelphia It is said that when Philip was a student in St. Elizabeth's School, he carried all before him. Now, just what that means we don't know. One thing we do know, that Philip is one grand, likeable young man with a genius of the highest order. You will find in other pages of the annual, some specimens of his handiwork. Apart from his art as a draughtsman, Philip is a short story writer of some distinction. It is said that he was responsible for introducing the national anthem of Siam among his fellow students. Philip's genius is of such a versatile order that we feel that it would be a mistake if we put him down for any specific calling in life. We do know, however, that whatever profession he will embrace, he will bring honor and fame.

ALFRED DELOS HILLS (Hog Island) Philadelphia

BURLING JARRETT (]a Da) N . J.

Haddonfield,

Burling came to us all the way from Haddonfield, N. J. Think of that, commuting for all that number of years. He has an enviable record for punctuality and attendance. Burling is dependable and, therefore, he was the student's choice for all the positions that required initiative and trustworthiness. And the best of it all is that he has made good. While not an athlete in the strict sense, he is an advocate of outdoor life, and canoeing takes a great deal of his spare time. But in the social line, oh, that's altogether different. From the abiding interest he takes in his physics, drawing, chemistry and mathematics, we would not be much out of the way, if we found him entering our department of civil engineering. If past performances are a guide of future endeavor, we know that he will be among the best.

Alfred Delos Hills, "say it with flowers." Like Young Lochinvar he came out of the West, that is, West Philadelphia. Prior to his entrance in La Salle, Alfred was a bright and brilliant student in St. Joseph's College, where he held an enviable record. Then, ah then, came a change, and well, he came to us and here he has been, and may continue. Always alert, alive and enthusiastic, he was among the first in everything. Apart from regaling us with stories of "Hog Island," Alfred was generally on the job. While not an athlete, he was always willing and ready to do his bit. Alfred is the "Editor" of the Annual, and from the contents of the book, you may judge of his abilities. It is stated on reliable authority that he will go in for civil engineering. And from what we know, he will make good. "Take it from me," he will.

PHILIP JOSEPH McANIFF (Mac) Philadel~ phi a Among the modest, bashful, blushing young men wh~ presented themselves for matriculation in La Salle at the openmg of the term of 1916, was this young man, whose life, letters and achievements w~ will briefly chronicle. He received his elementary education in St. Edward's School, and the signs are on it, for he brought to his new labors, an application that augured well for the future. In nearly every form of social and athletic activity, Philip kas been to the fore . Apart from his multifarious engagements, _he h~s . found time to adorn the "Annual" with specimens of h1s arhsbc pen. Page the part reserved for Athletics. . . Mac is always glad when there IS mentioned football or track team. In both for ms of sport, he was among the best. He hasn't yet informed the world what problems he will tackle, but if he continues, he will certainly make "Bud" Fischer, T. A. D. and a few of the world's celebrities sit up and take notice.

THOMAS DOMINICK McBRIDE (TommJJ) Philadelphia When there was a certain social function at one of our local schools (Girls) you could hear on all sides of you, "Who is that? Where did he come from? My, isn't he a nice young man." Did all that turn the head of our "Tommy." Not a bit of it. Tommy is made of sterner stuff. Tommy hails from St. Stephen's School and that is saying an earful. For the first two years, we did not hear much of him but along the third year, he blossomed out. Football, baseball and nearly every other form of athletic and social activity claimed his attention, and strange to say, he made good in all. He was the choice of the students to tell us what the future has in store for us, and say: "page the prophecy." It is the intention of Tommy to strive for political honors in the local arena, so we wouldn't be surprised to see him some day Secretary of State.

EDWARD ALBERT McCONVILLE (Edd)J), Philadelphia

LEO WILLIAM M cCO RMICK (Mac). Girardville, Pa.

Eddy entered our senior class of the high school this year, having spent the better part of his life in the vicinity of the Wyoming Valley, to be more precise, the fair city of Scranton, Pa. Eddy believes thoroughly in being decisive, though now and then he lapses when it comes to being on time for school. Alive to all the activities of school life, he is very much on the job when there is question of lending aid and encouragement. He was among the first to have a fling at the good old game of baseball. Another thing that can be said in his favor, he believes in going ahead. Socially, he is a lion and was among the first to propose and carry out successfully the class dance. Eddy hasn't yet decided as to what the coming years will bring him. We did hear, however, that at present he is trying to rival Sherlock Holmes. One thing is certain, we will hear from him in course of time.

After finishing his elementary and high school education in his native town, Leo affected his hegira and became a student in La Salle the beginning of this scholastic year. Leo at once fitted in with the scheme of things and was ready at all times to lend his time and money to anything that would further the interests of his school. It is the intention of L eo to enter the medical profession and we are sure that the profession will be graced by his presence. Go to it, Leo; remember we are with you. If you work as hard in your chosen career as you have plodded in your semor year in high school, you will win out. Here' s hoping.

FRANCIS

JOSEPH McG EARY Jenkintown, Pa.

( Moone]},

JOSEPH ALOYSIUS MAHER (Blood:y), Williamstown, Penna.

Mr. McGeary comes from Jenkintown, P a . Do you know where that is? No; strange, but wait till I tell you. It is, pshaw, what's the use, you wouldn't understand . Well, Francis has been commuting to Philadelphia for the past fou r years. A modest, stalwart young man who wins out by a smile and is generally always right. Though not very active in athletics and other forms of distractions around the school, still he is there with all that may be accounted good fellowship. It is the intention of Mr. McG eary to study medicine and specialize in nervous diseases. Why nervous diseases? We don't know; perhaps he will tell us in course of time. We are told that the future looks bright for him. We hope it does, as he is a worthy young man, to whom nothing should be denied. Nothing succeeds like success, F rancis, and you have it in you; go to it for all you're worth.

Mr. Maher joined our ranks in the beginning of the present scholastic year and since then has proven himself to be "one of the finest." Before entering La Salle he was a student in medicine in one of our local schools of medicine, and, well, he is here specializing in a few courses. While a student in Villanova, Joseph managed to shine in various forms of college activities, but of late his activities are confined to a brisk walk to the "Greasy Spoon," where he greets the hungry "bunch" at noon. At the close of the year, "Bloody" will re-enter Hahnemann Medical School, and from the earnest way he goes about his work in L a Salle, we would not be surprised to see him among the topnotchers among medical men in his "Little Grey Home in the West. "

HUGH THOMAS MOONEY (Hugh})), Philadelphia

VINCENT JA MES MORANZ (Vince), Philadelphia

Hugh comes from North Philadelphia and prior to entering La Salle was a student in one of our neighboring colleges, where he shone with resplendent lustre. Believing, however, that the more you travel, the more you see and perhaps learn, he came to us at the beginning of our second term.

The most wonderful asset in this young man's life was that he was among those who made over 70'/r in Plane Geometry in the second term of the second year high. Those who flunked in that examination, please take notice. The world today is complaining that there are few $25,000.00 men. Well, there is one that will measure up to the job in course of time. Vincent is a good loser, a heavy plunger in hard work and a general, all-around capable young man. It is his intention to enter the busy marts of high finance, and we know without a doubt that he will be among the topnotchers ere ten brief moons shine over his fair head. Vincent manages to get a hearing whenever he gets up in class, and when you come to consider what that means you will wonder why it is so. We will tell you in a few words: He is honest, sincere and he wants only a square deal. With these qualities he will win out in the end.

Though comparatively a newcomer to La Salle, he has already entered into every form of activity about the school, and we noticed that he has figured largely in baseball. It is the intention of Hugh Thomas to enter the School of Diplomacy at Washington, and, therefore, we now can understand how he manages to smooth over his present difficulties. Will he make good? Can a duck swim? Well, that is about the way he will make good; it comes natural to him. Well, Hugh, you know that you will hew your fortune, provided you go to it, Hugh.

JOHN EDWARD O'BRIEN, JR. (Philadelphia facie). Germantown, Pa.

BERNARD JOHN O'CONNELL, JR. (BarneJ)), Morton, Pa.

There was quite a ripple or stir in the second year high in the fall of 191 7 when "Jack," alias "Chic," entered the room. The excitement quickly subsided, when he announced that he came there for business. He showed it in many more ways than we can assert here. However, he soon became the prince of good fellows, and very soon it appeared that he would make good. There was no form of social, athletic or any other line of action that didn't find him "Johnny on the spot." Among the most ardent rooters, among the first to contribute his share for class activities, he proved that he was there for business. Jack has visions of a large ranch in the west, with thousands of heads of cattle and, therefore, it would not be rash to assert that the coming years will find him studying the meat business as it is carried on at present, only he says he will make it pay. I wonder what he means.

Our friend, Bernard, was born in Philadelphia, but was raised in a quiet suburb called, on the timetable of the P. R. R., Morton, which is a place the trains stop to discharge passengers. He entered the preparatory department in La Salle in 191 3 and has been with us ever since. He was and is loyal to all the traditions of his alma mater and we are sure that he will make good in the years that are to come. Judging from his ability in argument, we would not be at all surprised if he were to follow in the footsteps of his father and espouse the legal profession. Though not active in athletics, he is a warm admirer of all that is fair and square, and with these assets he will win out.

VINCENT AUGUSTINE QUINN

THEODORE FRANCIS RODERER (Teddy), Philadelphia

(Quinn:y),

Chestnut Hill, Pa.

" Teddy" fi rst saw the light of day on May 20, 1903; this will give you an idea of his age, or will it? Isn't a man as old as he feels and a woman as old as she looks? Well, "Teddy" is a live wire and is up to the mark in every form of activity around the school. His four years' record in La Salle shows that he was much in earnest. H e has acted in various offices in all the classes of the high school, and his work showed I 00 % efficiency. One thing about "Teddy," he knows that time is money. If you are incredulous on this point, ask him; he knows. Owing to his interest in biology and chemistry, we would not be surprised to see him go in for medicine and form a part of the incoming pre-medical class, which will be one of the largest, so they say, that ever was in La Salle.

"Quinny" hails from that desolate region where the winds blow, where there is much snow, and the- well, that's what you get from reading "Walt Mason," but, to be serious, Vincent entered the preparatory department way back in the "Teens," so he is thoroughly acclamated to the atmosphere of La Salle. And, by the way, Vincent was the star guard on the football team of '19. We thought for awhile that he would enter the legal profession, where his two brothers are well-deserving pillars, but high finance of late seemed to have an attraction for him, so it would not surprise us to see him some day holding forth an office in the money district of our fair city. Go to it, Vince, nothing succeeds like success.

LOUIS JOSEPH RO D E R E R (Lou), Philadelphia

JOSEPH

Lou, as you would know, has been with us since the memoâ&#x20AC;˘ rable year of 1916. To be precise, it was in October of that year that he began to journey to and fro from the revered walls of La Salle to the vague and distant parish of St. Bonaventura's.

BERNARD SCHMITZ (Schmitt:y) , Philadelphia

After leaving St. Boniface's School in 1914, "Joe" looked around and thought that La Salle would give him all he needed; he was correct in his choice. It did. For four years "Joe" has, by an unremitting fidelity to duty, passed all the dangerous points that hinder young men from graduating from high school and is now on the way to glory and distinction.

It did not take Lou long to get "set." He has been among the leaders of the class since the class was born. At present we are afraid that we will have to hold him in leash, for he is certainly straining at the chain.

"Joe" has always been very active in everything that has to do with his alma mater. He made the football team and at present is holding down one of the positions in the outfield of the baseball team. Besides, "Joe" is quite an orator, and we would not be surprised to see him bring home the bacon in the annual contest in elocution. "Joe," it is said, intends to succeed his father in the dye industry. We know he will make good.

Since it is the purpose of Lou to study medicine, it would not surprise us to see in glittering letters, Doctor Louis Roderer, B. V. D., and all the other parts of the alphabet. We know that he will make good. He cannot help it. Think of any one liking-did I say liking, nay, even admiring "Trig." Well, there you have him.

ADOLPH

JOSEPH STROHLEIN Riverton, N. J.

JOHN JOSEPH SULLIVAN (Mike), delphia

( Addy),

Before entering La Salle Adolph was a student in the preparatory department of Villanova College, but La Salle loomed up big in his eyes and two years ago he came to us and has since identified himself with every activity of the school. Apart from his interest in his studies, he is a tireless worker for the K . of C . But all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy; acting on that supposition, Adolph is a football star. He was a star on the preparatory team at Villanova, and we are told in his own bailiwick, namely, Riverton, N. ]., carried everything before him. From the interest he takes in physics, we would not be surprised to see him enter some technical college to qualify for electrical engineering. If thoroughness spells success, he will succeed. Here's hoping, Adolph.

Phila-

John Joseph Sullivan, a product (unfinished) of St. Stephen's School, became a part of this class at its origin. This was in 1916. So much for his coming. During four years he has been the delight and consolation of his schoolmates, to whom he is known by the felicitous cognomen of "Mike." His sterling qualities mark him "a man among men," and a true friend whom we will all remember with hearts truly grateful. It is said that in the presence of ladies he is somewhat embarrassed; but, like everything else, it's like the measles, he will get over it. John Joseph has not decided as to where and what field of endeavor he will bring his valuable assets, but whatever field of endeavor he will enter you may be sure that field will be particularly honored.

ROBERT MONTGOMER Y TAYLOR (Bob), Philadelphia

ALOYSIUS

EDWARD WHELAN Philadelphia

(Addie),

Before entering La Salle, Bob was among the star athletes in one of our local high schools. His hand as yet in this respect has not lost its cunning, for Bob is very much on the job when there is question of good, manly, red-blooded sport. In football, basketball and baseball he is among the best.

Did you ever read the story of Damon and well, if you didn't, perhaps the things we would to be more to the point. You know, himself all right. We won't say anything about it, but right, all right.

Owing to war conditions, Bob enlisted and did his bit in a very patnot1c manner. We have it on good authority that Bob will enter Annapolis or perhaps W est Point. If he does, we would not be surprised to hear of an Admiral Taylor or a General Robert Taylor, U. S. A., in a few years.

Mr. Whelan came to us some four years back and easily made himself adaptable to prevailing conditions, which fact proves that he could and will do something to make people sit up and take notice before many years. Though not very active in athletics, he has, however, lent his aid and encouragement, and that meant a good deal, when such things were wanted.

If you follow your career as you play the game, you will win. The world gives its hand to the man that can fight, and fight hard. Think it over, Bob, what that means, and then go to it for all you're worth.

Pythias? No, say here-but, and Quinnywe thought, all

Mr. Whelan hasn't told us what the future will hold out for him. At present he thinks that a chain of movie theatres will be about as much as he can handle.

CLASS PROPHECY Some are born great, others achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them. When Shakespeare wrote those words he may not have had in mind the famous class of 1920 of the high school of La Salle College, and yet how true are the words. It was in the year 1 9 3 5, ah, the glorious period and golden age; all the profiteers were in jail; all the tailors and shoemakers were serving twenty years and more in several prisons throughout the land; sugar could be had, aye, plenty, and even coal had come down to five dollars a ton. Think of it. Well, what about the class? Oh, yes, I forgot. The present is such a gol den age that I hate to look back on those dark and eventful days, when a suit of clothes cost you a hundred dollars; a pair of shoes twenty, and sugar and coal, ah, me, let it pass ; but to be senous. It was fifteen years since I had left my native city, Philadelphia, to go as a soldier of fortune or what is nearly the same, a traveling salesman, to a territory that embraced the Orient. It was an ideal evening in June. And what is so rare as a day in June. But wait till I tell you. I arrived at the new port in Philadelphia, erstwhile Hog Island. A fleet of airplanes was strung up against a huge hangar outside the dock. I looked around in wonder. Then I turned to one of the attendants: "What's the idea? Why all the airplanes? He looked at me rather curiously. "Are you a stranger here?" he asked. "No," I replied; "not exactly a stranger, but isn't this something new?" He smiled and said sententiously: "Stranger, we're up and doing it for the past ten years." "Yes, I know, but what is all this about?" And then he told me. The Carlin, Arm-

strong Company had secured the franchise to run airplanes through the city, and their enterprise was the admiration of the world. I asked one of the attendants to lead me to the head office of this aerial transportation company. Imagine my surprise when a man with a smile that wouldn't come off, looked at me curiously, then put out both hands. "Well, I'll be hanged, if it isn't--. Say, Frank," he yelled to a brisk business man who was sitting in a luxurious office chair, "look who's here?" Both stood in front of me. "Well," I at least was able to say, "what's all the fuss about?" "Fuss," they both shouted. "Aren't you Tommy McBride?" "You said something, friends," They burst out laughing. "Take another look, Tommy. Don't you know us?" I shook my head and replied dubiously, "can't say I do." "Did you notice the sign when you came in?" I glanced up at the sign, took another look, threw down my hat and grabbed their hands. "Well, what do you know about that? Sure enough." "Well," they said, "you are just in time. Tonight we are going to gather the bunch together. Stay with us tonight, or rather let us go up to the Hotel Hayes." I repeated the words " 'Hotel Hayes.' Hayes, not our old friend Nick?" "None other," they answered. We got into the airplane and landed on .the roof garage; something new in its line. I wondered at the idea. They said: "You ought to know the man who invented this. This is the idea of Philip Herbst. He has it patented and is worth now over a cool million." After a hearty meal, in which we were joined by Governor Connor, Attorney General Quinn and Commissioner Feeny, we flew to the new Delos Park that was laid out in a beautiful part of Fox Chase near the Delaware River.

They pointed out the park, another wonder of the world. Our friend Joseph Schmitz, by dredging the river and reclaiming the land had made it into a fairy land, with the help of Alfred Delos Hills, now one of the most celebrated civil engineers in the city. As we were flying over the direction of Germantown , the pilot pointed out a group of buildings. "That' s the new Connor plant. Biggest thing this side of the Atlantic." "Well," I said, "where do we go from here?" They said nothing, but gave some directions to the pilot, who reversed gear and shot down toward the centre of the city. "We forgot to tell you," they said, "one of the biggest conventions of medical men is being held in the city tonight." We went there. The presiding officer was Dr. M. P. Crane. Doctor Roderer and Doctor Maher, together with the renowned Dr. McGeary, were on the stage. We greeted them. Would I never see the end of the famous class of 1920? The next day all Philadelphia was agog, for a native son was pitching for the new Athl etics. We went to the park. , One of the biggest crowds of the season was on hand . The park was something new, especially the grandstands. They threw out their hands and said: "Well, what do you think of it? There is something of Strohlein' s work there." Then the batteries were announced. " Who is going to pitch?" I asked. "Why, didn't you hear the name?" It was Dougherty, our famous Joe Doug herty. He had been pitching in the big leagues for the past five years and was still going strong. The next day I visited the new Hotel Hayes, and there in his office sat Nick, who told me that he had especially furnished the new Persian Blue Room, where he had intended to gather all the members of the class of 1920. And so he had. There were w.e , the whole

thirty, and not a misfit among us. Among the groups were lawyers, doctors, engineers, men of worth in the business and financial world, and, strange to say, why Bob, now General Taylor, and Surgeon General Roderer managed to get off for the night. John O'Brien was appointed toast master. He called out the names; not one was missing. Even Charles Farrell, who had traveled day and night all the way from Panama, was there. I turned to one of the nearest to me. "Your face seems familiar." He looked at me and grinned: "Familiar; well, I should smile. Didn't I drive you in the airplane the other day?" "Then you are-"U~s. I'~ Whelan. Didn't you know me?" Toward the end of the speeches the toast-master called out: "Gentlemen, we'll now have a few words from our frien d , the new ambassador to F ranee, the Honorable Hugh Thomas Mooney." He held us spell-bound by his flow of eloquence. He was followed by the Hon. Henry Grip p and His Excellency Vincent Moranz. When we parted for the night we went over some of the more salient events of the four years in old La Salle; n o , r ather the new La Salle University, that now occupied Bro '3.d Street from Thompson Street to Girard Aver.ue. Wh ~n we were parting we thought of that wonderful poem of Oliver Wendell Holmes, "The Boys." Yes, we w ere boys again, and what a multitude of thoughts came crowding upon our memories as we thoug ht of the famous year and the class of 1920. Just as we were leaving who came in, full of excitement, but a party of apparently big business men. They seemed to be in a hurry, for one of them rushed up and inquired in a loud voice: "Say, where is that banquet being held?" We looked over the crowd and recognized the smiling face of Philip McAniff, followed by the everquiet John Sullivan, and looming up in the rear, our old

friend Bernard O ' Connell, who was arm-in-arm with Ed McConville, both of them in a heated argument over some delay that they experienced. O'Connell was the first to speak: "Say, what's the matter with you folks? I didn't get your telegram until this morning and, believe me, it was some ride from Harrisburg to this place." Just then John Sullivan broke in with: "The next time you get the boys together see that you tell us in time. While I am president of the Main Line of the P . R. R., with offices in Pittsburgh, I can't charter a private car every time I feel like it, and that's what I had to do tonight, besides, I had to bring this crowd with me."

THE ANNUAL RETREAT The annual retreat of La Salle College was held fro!'Jl March 29-31 in the gymnasium, which was handsomely fitted up as a chapel. The services were conducted by the Rev. Father Harnett, C. S. Sp., who brought to his task a measure of zeal that will bear fruit for the years that are to come.

Back again we went to the hotel. "Nick" Hayes got out a book and read all the names. Not one was missing of the famous class of 1920. I wonder if in 1 940, if-oh, that little word-if, and yet what we have predicted may not come amiss. Let us hope that each will live up to the lessons that were taught to him in dear old La Salle and that come what may, each will strive for the best, for nothing else is worth the effort.

On the other hand, the students made every effort to respond to the sermons and exhortations of the reverend preacher. We should count o~rselves particularly honored and singularly blessed in having a time set apart in which we can reflect on the eternal truths and know them in a way that we can give a reason for the faith that is in us.

Contributed by members of the Senior Class, High School, 1920.

The exercises were brought to a close on Wednesday, March 31, when the entire student body received Holy Communion, which was followed by Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament and the PapaJ Blessing.

THE SPIRITUAL RETRE:\ T-Tuesday. March 30. 1920

Bro. F elician In the past four :years, Brother F elician and the Class of 1920 have been thrown together continuously.

And from the

time he first entered our class as Professor of English in the Second Year High, till now, he has proven that one can be a professor and still be the pupils' friend.

Brother Felician's keen

sense of humor and wonderful intellect have made even the study of mathematics seem easy, to even the most wayward. Brother F elician, the class owes you a high debt of gratitude for lightening the burden of the last four years, and we may safely say that no matter what the circumstances are, you will never be forgotten by the Class of 1920.

WHAT I WOULD DO TO MAKE LA SALLE MORE ENTERTAINING AND RESTFUL at once insure their u n ited support, as well as the support of a great many others, who would feel a deal easier about their chances. Then I wou ld p ass a new ruling declaring a ten per cent rebate on a ll fees for all students who at the end of the term obtaine d a grade of "Perfect." This would give enterprising fellows something to work for, because scholarship ought to be rewarded, and after all, what's a "Perfect" unless you get something with it. After I had completed these arrangements, for a consideration I would subsidize the Philadelphia papers, which would at once rush to prin t , b o osting the project to the skies, as they do anythin g, good, bad or indifferent, whenever it means anvthin g to them. The "Triangle" I would make my official organ, and by this time I would have the whole-hearted sup port of every one concerned (the ones that didn' t sup p o rt would be thrown out), and I would be r ea dy to begin the first decisive movement in the interests of higher education and learning. At this moment, with the eyes of the world upon me, and the petty d isturbances of capital and labor totally forgotten, I would r etain the services of Judge Bonniwell, Martin Powers and Bernard O'Connell, Esquires, and declare the College insolvent. After we had established this in the courts, I would take the funds on !1and and form a new corpo ration under the title of the United Cosmopolitan Improved Assembly of Learning and Culture, with myself as president and maiority owner, and the faculty as directors and stockholders. Then having arranged everything satisfactorily, I would proceed to the interior organization a nd arrangement of the curriculum. But previous to altering the studies, I would begin and

What would I do to make La Salle College and High School more entertaining and restful? This is a question that I have long and ardently hoped Brother Richard would some day ask me, for I am ready to answer him at a moment's notice-but unha ppily the golden opportunity has not as yet come, and I have been forced to withhold my information from the eversuspicious and unsympathetic rowdies who are my schoolmates, both on account of their unstable mental condition and the impending probability that they would all " quit" school until my plan was installed. No doubt puritans, and prim old school teachers, and reliable business men, and such disagreeable people, would turn their thumbs down right offhand, but that's to be expected; they never appreciate progress so they could stay out of it and not come 'round ~nterfering and upsetting everything. To begin with, of course, smce it's my plan, I would have to be president. That's all settled, because no one would know the plans as I would, and I would have to be at the head. You see, Brother Richard would resign and I would take his place; he wouldn't go away altogether, but would sort of assist with advice whenever it was necessary. I have it pretty well outlined, though, and he wouldn't have much to do. I'll have to explain here that my plan would go into effect gradually, but it wouldn' t take more than a year or so before everything was running smoothly. The first thing I would do would be to go back over all the records of the students attending, and find out all the conditions ; then I would tear the conditions up and notify the students. This would

.SJ

revise the office system in a ll particula rs and put things on a new basis. The office itself I would remodel and fit up in the oriental fashion with g rea t ru gs, tapestries and bowls of incense; the room w ould be my "sa nctum sanctorum," and there I would pre side, waited on by a corps of ebon-hued giants a t tir e d in robes of blue, and scarlet turbans, armed to the tee th and smoking C a mels. This procedure would throw a g la mour over the whole plan, and thru the medium o f t h e great dailies would thrill thinking people the wo rld o ver. They would imagine the author aromatic, a m a n o f s oul and lea rning, and would flock to enroll beneath the gleaming, golden standard flashing high , Vir t u s e t Scientia.

into the world of 'actualities, and looking back through the purple haze of memories, see and live again in their hearts those white and glorious days of a perfect existence. MARTIN P. CRANE, "20."

"Whoop-a, Whoop-a. Zoop-bah, Zoop-bah. Yah I Yah! R a y!" ran g out the triumphal cry of the elated college men . Blue and gold banners fluttered fantastically, while e ar-splitting shouts rent the autumn air. Hundreds of natty cla d y ouths w e re swarming across the gridiron, making it look like a n ant n est. Then the shouting a ssu m ed a reg ul ated m easure. The crowd moved toward the gy m ; o n t he shoulders of the foremost rode a player. " Who is he," some one near me asked . . The a n swer was, " That's Jim Garvin, the captain. " Now I know Jim Garvin personally. He's a good sort, Garvin is, but well, he' s not what you'd call studious. So w hen I e n tered h is room, o t herwise known as " The lee Box, " that nig ht,. I foun d him contentedly engaged in a q uie t game of stud poker with three others. "Hy ah, Jack," he yells, "sit down an' take a hand." Well, now, I'm not addicted to gambling or anything like that, but I sat there until eleven o'clock losing the pat e r' s h a rd-earned dine ro. The conver sation was on eve rything in g e neral. First it was girls, then poker, t hen football , n ew jazz hits and then the monotony of c ollege life. Now, if you are a prof., I want to warn you to w~tch out when vou hear a bunch of students gabbing about monotony," for as sure as gun's iron they'll do something' to bre ak t h a t monotony. Well, it was just like that. I proposed that we rehaze the freshies, but that appeared

Then would come the fina l ch ang e. The harsh ; unfriendly classrooms would disapp ear a n d give way to chambers of beauty and serenity. R ich ::ugs would a dorn the floors, handsome works of a r t g r ace the walls, a n d gone would be the stiff-backed, h a rd -bottomed c hairs that deprive one of comfort and sensai:io n , and in their places, and in their places stand invitin g ly m assive chairs of upholstered tapestry and leath er, deeply cushion ed and inexpressibly soothing. Upo n a raised dia s, enthroned in luxuriant ease, the brot h e r would hold forth to the students and sway them in sympathetic joy or sorrow with sonorous Latin a nd melliflu ent Greek. And over all would be an air of in finit e peace and unde r student. Nothing was amiss, an d , u nable to do anythin g teacher. The cultural tone w ould p r evail; exa minations would be things of t h e p ast, u nknown and for gotten, students wbuld go a bout ac tua ted wit h a real desire to learn and bend t h e ir e ff o rts accordingly. Men who had finished their e ducatio n in d ays gone b y under the old regime, would fl ock b a ck b y the thousands to enroll as graduate stu dents, an d pursuing the even tenor of their lives, go out again w ith ~he younger men

to be too tame. "Ape" Walsh suggested that we ring the old bell in the tower, but that was uninteresting, even though the "old man" had threatened to "eject" the next one caught in that act. "We want something excitable," explained Jim, " something laughable, something humorous, something with a snap, get me? " " Like hangin' a dead cat outside of the ole man's door," hazarded " Two-Bits" Johnson. Everybody looked at him in scorn. At last the silence was broken by Jim himself. " I have it," he yelled, ' 'I've got it, guys, lissen." And then followed several hours of almost whispering debate, so that it was two o'clock before I got between the sheets. The next day the air was full of m y stery. Whispered warnings were passed from ear to ear. Profs. began to look worried, and in an attempt to offset the impending danger the old man gave us a lecture after chow. This was all in accordance w i th the plan of our most honorable Jim. Oh! boy! When "La nky" Perkins, the Math. prof., picked up a fake note that afternoon the whole faculty were on pins and needl es. Did the students dare to attempt such a deed? The old man enjoined the members of the faculty to keep secret watc h on the campus every night the next week. And every night that week there were poker game!> galore, pop fests and private smokers. Oh, lad! Those profs. would have gone crazy if they had known. That week we certainly did have cold weather, and since nothing happened, the profs. decided that it was a false alarm, all except "Lanky" Perkins, who could not be persuaded to crawl between the blankets b e fore midnight. Wednesday it became known to the members of

the inne r san c tum that all the other profs. had abandoned th eir vigil a nd that "Lanky" was the lone sentinel. Immediately t he sacred members of the senior sanctuary called a secr et m eeting. At I 0. 3 0 that night not one of them w as in h is r oom. " Lanky" was walking restlessly to and fro, swinging his ungainly arms to keep warm, as we crept up behind the h ed g e. A quick and dexterous snap of a sheet while a h a nd was slapped over his mouth, and willing hands bound h is long legs and arms, and Professor Perkins was in our p o wer. To the belfry we carried him. He m a d e a w eird fi gure, his head enveloped in a sheet an d his body wou nd with rope until he couldn't even shiver wi t h ease. S o me one tied the end of the bell rope a round his leg a nd s o me one else removed the rope from his fee t. Well, r ight there started the fun. "Lanky" tried to run. a nd every time he did the bell rope tripped him. Th e b ell began to ring, so we excluded ourselves fr om that portion o f the campus which must soon become inhospitable. The b ell k e pt r inging, and pretty soon the faculty b egan t o rush to ward the belfry. Students swarmed out u p o n t he campus, each one carrying a sheet in which he soon b eca me g owned. Some one, I doubt not that it w a s Jim, slipped a pillowcase over the old man's dome as he was lookin g b ehind the hedge. Some one else, I hate to b e perso n al, t h rew a sheet over him and pinned it down. Sev eral stud ents swathed in sheets rushed "Doc" W inters and hung h im by his leg from the old elm tree. T hen t h e students began to disappear. Soon the only o nes left were the profs., who were scrambling blindly. Their august personages were decked in pillowcases, bl a n kets and sheets. The bell continued to ring and " Doc" Winters continued to yell.

It certainly was funny to see those fifteen men of learning running about like decapitated chickens. At last one of them managed to tear the sheets from him and look about. I'll say he was p r etty mad as he divested himself of his unexpected garments. It wasn' t long before all the profs. were natural lookin g again. Mad? Well, I should snicker! " ]. B." looked as if he could eat nails, and old " Doc" Winters appeared to be able to fight a grizzly bareha nded. But all this extreme rage did not in the least compensate for "Lanky's" black eye or "Doc" Winter' s swollen toe or the "old man's" black and b lue shins,

PEARLS There are pearls and pearls and pearls-good, bad and indifferent. The world also sees quite a difference between good and bad pearls; but enough of this; all very well in its place, but this isn't the place for it. "As I was saying, Caesar had his Brutus, Charles the First his Cromwell, and Spike Dugan ten years." Thus spoke Oscar Eggnog, as he stood with his partner in crime, H a rold Citrate, on the corner of Fourteenth and Broad.

The profs. filled with ind ign a tion, then marched into the dormitories and proceed ed t o examine each student. Nothing was amiss, a nd, una bl e to do anything further, the profs. decided to retir e . The rest of the night passed without any furt h e r friv olity. But on the next day, and, in fact, the who le next month, there were questionings and cross-examinations which kept us on the jump every minute. It certainly was a good thing for us that we had good wits. The unpea ceful asp ect of the institution failed to disappear as quickly as it appeared. We had to watch our every m o ve in order to avoid suspicion. But as no one amo ng t h e students knew anything about the matter, it gradually dwindled up and blew away. I was particularly g la d when it did , because I was asked numerous embarrassing questions, and, well - I don't know anything about it. PH ILIP HERBST, " 20 ."

" Amen," replied Harold reverently. "By the way, Citrate, shall we take in the festivities at the Goldrocks' mansion tonight?" questioned Oscar. "Sure; I'll meet you on this corner at eight thoity."

At the appointed hour two figures, garbed in fulldress suits, one carrying a bag, were to be seen on the corner. "All set?" asked Oscar. "0. K. ," replied Harold. " Let's go ." The criminals hailed a passing taxi and were swiftly driven to Goldrocks'. Once there, they easily gained entrance with - the fake admission cards with which they had provided themselves. Âˇ As they were unknown .inside,

they quickly hid themselves, to wait until the frolic was over. By two o'clock most of the guests had departed, and before three the butler had locked up and retired. Then the two yeggs stole cautiously forth and began their operationsÂˇ on the big safe, which was placed in Mr. Goldrocks' office, just off the main hall. They placed a small electric torch on a chair, where it shone full on the work. Harold sorted out the tools, while Oscar Âˇ drilled the holes for the nitro. Then, after bracing the door so it wouldn't fall noisily to the ground, he poured in the powerful explosive and put in the fuse, white Citrate wrapped the strong box with cushions and covers from the adjoining parlor to deaden the noise .of the explosion.

His constant attendance at a ll the games, his kind words of encouragement, his man ly stand on all points that had the interests of La S alle a t heart, his wholeheartedness when victory was w on, his g enerous optimism when we suffered defeatall the se things are enshrined in our memory.

BASE BALL TEAM-1920

BASEBALL--1920 When candidates were called for the baseball team, the prospects were not very bright, as there had not been a team to represent the school in the past two years, although there was an informal team in 1919. Of this informal team only four players, including three pitchers were in school, so all eyes were turned to the new material to see how the prospects might be brightened.

So, with Armstrong, who had won back his old position, at third, this line-up remained intact for the next ten games, and probably will be the same when the season ends. Of the twelve games played, La Salle has won eight and lost four, the features of the games being La Salle's belated rallies, which, when apparently beaten, have turned defeat into victory. Included in these rallies is an eight-run rally in the eighth inning at Haverford, winning, 8 to 7, and a ten-run rally with two out in the ninth at Swarthmore, winning, 1 3 to 6. R. White was the pitcher in both of these unusual games.

F unfield Playground was secured, and after three weeks hard practice, Coach Donahue picked his team as follows: V. White, Lf.; J. White, Cf.; Gallagher, Rf. ; Armstrong, 3B.; Feeney, Ss.; Higgins, 2B.; McBride, 1 B. ; Murphy, Dougherty, R. White and Reckner, Pitchers; McGeary, O'Neil and Tague, Catchers. The utility men also carried on the team were: Gutekunst and McConville, Infielders, and Mooney and Schmitz, Outfielders.

In the Catholic League, the Prep boys have won 2 and lost 4, but expect to finish at the 500 mark by winning the next two games. Fate appears to follow the Prep boys in the League, keeping them in a rut, but outside of that they play Championship Ball.

This combination did not prove satisfactory, as was shown when it dropped the first game to Catholic High. Gallagher was brought in to third base and Schmitz sent to right field. Although the next two games were won, the line-up was not yet wholly satisfactory. Another change was made, sending Dougherty to right field when not pitching, and assigning Murphy to the right garden when Dougherty was pitching.

The All-Catholic T earn has not been picked yet, but when it is, La Salle expects to be strongly represented. Feeney is at present the leading run-getter, while Dougherty, McBride, Armstrong and V. White are having a merry battle for hitting honors. Peter A. Callahan is manager, although his assistant, John McGovern, has been discharging his duties. This is mainly due to Callahan's strenuous work on the Dance Committee.

Before the first game Joe Dougherty, former star of Catholic High was elected Captain.

BASKETBALL When practice started for the Basketball team that was to represent La Salle during the season of 1919, the outlook was fairly bright, as Brennan and Trainer of last year's team and White and Taylor of the second team in 191 7 had returned to school, giving Coach Mahoney a pretty fair nucleus around which to build a team. However, before the first game Trainer was out on account of sickness and Feeny was put in his position at guard, where he was slated to stick. But on the eve of the first game Feeny also was taken sick, and Bowen was tried at guard and Haney at forward. So the team that represented La Salle the first game was composed of Brennan, center; White and Haney, forwards, with Bowen and Taylor guards. This line-up was kept for the next few games, but it did not appear to be absolutely satisfactory to the coaches, so a change was made. Feeny was again placed at Âˇ guard, and Bowen was moved "t o Haney's place at forward. This combination represented La Salle until Bowen was taken sick, which necessitated another shift in the line-up. Taylor was moved up to forward and Carr held down Taylor's place at guard.

White and Brennan were also the representatives of the school on the All-Catholic teams picked by the various newspapers, Brennan being declared center on the first team and White a forward on the second team. The second team, composed of Tague and White, forwards; Sullivan, center, and Lehman and Genhart, guards, was a little more successful than the "Varsity," and landed third place in the league. The outstanding star of the second team was Vince White, who rivaled his brother in netting the ball from the foul line, as well as being very accurate in shooting from the floor.

LA SALLE AT WEST CATHOLIC La Salle opened the season very auspiciously when they defeated W. Catholic in the first Catholic League game at 41st and Mantua Streets. The game was close throughout, and was won only in the last minute of play, when Bob Taylor netted one for the Blue and Gold . Brennan was the shining light of La Salle, while Blake played best for W. Catholic.

Line-up

This line-up proved to be more satisfactory than the other two, and was selected to hold up the traditions of old La Salle â&#x20AC;˘n the remaining games.

In a Catholic League game Villanova defeated La Salle, 26-20 , at the Third Regiment Armory, 41st and Market Streets. La Salle tried a new combination in this game, putting White at guard and Taylor at forward. Villanova's lead was obtained mostly during the first half, due to the shooting of Hylan, but in the second half Feeny was placed in White's position and held Hylan ~coreless, helping La Salle overcome Villanova's lead somewhat.

LASALLE AT CHESTER Foil owing the Villanova game, the next game was with Chester High School at Chester. Altho the Prep. boys were beaten, they outscored Chester from the floor, 8 -6. It was the unerring foul shooting of T enty, the Chester center, who caged 24 out of 2 7 goals, which won for the Chester five. Barrett and Taylor starred for La Salle Prep., getting 7 field goals between them. Feeny ~nd Taylor guarded well.

LA SALLE AT WEST CATHOLIC La Salle opened the second half of the Catholic League by dropping a heart-breaker to W. Catholic, 21-20. The game was hard-fought and closely .played from the start, the score at half time being tie at 1 0. There was not more than two points' difference during the second half. The deciding point came after the game had ended, a foul being called on La Salle just as the whistle blew, and Blake's unerring eye located Âˇ the basket. Line-up White. . . . . . . . . . . . .

WHARTON SCHOOL FRESH AT LA SALLE Playing on their home floor La Salle showed a reversal of form by severely trimming Wharton School Fresh, 28-5. The game was never in doubt, as La Salle went out in front at the start, never to be headed. Brennan, La Salle's lanky center, was the individual star, caging five field goals. Taylor played a clever game at guard and netted two from beyond the center of the floor.

CATHOLIC HIGH AT LA SALLE La Salle pulled the unexpected by defeating Catholic High in the Catholic League. Gallen bowled over Catholic High's chances by caging only 5 out of 18 fouls, while La Salle's foul shooter was the individual star, : dropping 1 0 out of Âˇ 1 2 from the foul mark and playing an excellent floor. game.

LA SALLE AT ST. JOE By defeating La S a lle, 34-18, St. Joe clinched the Catholic League title. St. Joe began scoring early and ran up a large lead, the fi r st half ending 24 to 6. The feature of the game was th e playing of Martin, who scored six field goals. Oakes, the St. Joe star, was only able to tally one field g o al on Carr and Feeney, who was put out for personals during the first half. An exceedingly large crowd w a s present and filled the hall to capacity.

CATHOLIC HIGH AT LA SALLE La Salle dropped another close game when it was defeated by Catholic High , 22-19. La Salle forged ahead at the start and was leading 1 3-9 at half time, but was unable to continue th e pace during the second half. Gallen's floor work and shooting featured the game.

SENIOR BASKET BALL TEA\11- 1920

JUNIOR BASKET BALL TEAM-1920

THE "VARSITY'' FOOT BALL TEAM-1920

FOOTBALL, 1919 When the Athletic Association decided to have football in .1919, the prospects were anything but bright, as there had been no team in 191 8, and there was not a letter man from the previous team in school. However, .after many stiff practices and clever tutoring by Coache~ Downey, Cullen and Moran, the following team was picked to represent the school in the first game: Ends, Reckner and Gendhart; Tackles, Brennan and Higgins; Guards, T oth and Quinn Center, Callahan ; Quarter, Feeny; Halfbacks, Trainer and McAniff, and Fullback, Poppert; with Schimitz, Armstrong, Freney, Orien and Barret as capable subs. Although La Salle was victorious in the first game, the coaches were not pleased, and they tried a new combination. Larkin, a basketball man of last year, was tried at guard; Burroughs, a North Dakota product, was placed at one end, and Crane at the other ; McBride was tried in the backfield in the place of McAniff, who was injured at Media. This combination did not prove to be any more satisfactory than the previous one, and a few more changes were deemed necessary. Taylor, the star guard of 191 7, and Mulhern, fleet end of the same year, had returned to school, and had come out for their old places, ~hi~h t~ey won only after a hard fight. McBride was switched to end, and Brennan, the best dropkicker in Catholic scholastic ranks, was placed in the backfield. These changes seemed to benefit the team greatly, as was shown when it defeated the heavier and ·over-confi.den.i: :st: Joe Prep. boys, 9-6.

Owing to the injuries received in this game (La Salle was outweighed 15 pounds per man), the next two games, with T orne and Williamson Trade School, were regretfully cancelled. Although the injuries were numerous, most of them were not serious and th e squad was again complete · in about ten days, with p ractically the same team that had started in the St. Joe hattie upholding the traditions of the ~chool in the rem~ining games. On the All-C a tholic teams picked by the various papers, La Salle h a d three representatives on both the first and second tea m s. Larkin, guard; Mulhern, end, and Poppert, fullback , were the stars who succeeded in winning a place on i:he first team, while, hovering near on the second team, La Salle was represented by .Captain Feeny, quarterback ; Brennan, halfback, and Burroughs, end.

Co~sideri~g th~ difficulties that fa~ed the team, the season of 1919 ° is regard ed as highly successful, for, although there was no . C atho lic League, La Salle is 'recognized as the titleholder , having ' com~ f~rth ~ictorious in all its Catholic contests. · · While speaking of a success-ful season, great credi~ must be given to Jim Downey and his able associates, who, through their unselfish efforts and excellent advice, helped greatly to make 191 9 one of La Salle Prep.' s most silccessful seasons.

LA SALLE ALUMNI WINS

The La Salle football team defeated the St. joseph' s eleven in the annual game between the two rival institutions, 9-6, on Houston Field. Neither team was able to score in the first period. St. joseph's had a number of chances to score in. the first period, but lost the ball on fumbles each time. La Salle opened up the scoring when Brennan kicked a field goal from the 35-yard line in the beginning of the second period. St. joseph's soon took the lead when Oakes, the husky halfback of the Crimson and Gray, made a 60-yard run for a touchdown. The game was won in the third period, when Feeny, the La Salle quarterback, picked up a fumble on St. joseph's one-yard line and crossed the line for a touchdown.

THE .JUNIOR CLASS-1920

HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS A class without a history is like a ship w ithout a rudder. The class of 1921 has, however, a rudder, and therein lies the point, or does it? Well, to begin from the beginning let us see. On the 8th of September, 1919, to be exact, there appeared in La Salle High School a group 6.f twentyfour young enthusiasts, eager to bore the Pierian spring whence comes the fountain of knowledge. They expected and blessed are they that expect. When class was duly organized class ~fficers were elected and the following were chosen to represent the class of 1921. Ja~es McGurk was elected president; Joseph Tague was elected vice president; Joseph Brennan, secretary, and Joseph Collins took upon himself the duty of treasurer. All fulfilled their various duties with the dignity fitting their positions and the class went on its way rejoicing. We had expected to see some of the old faces among the various professors, but, lo, what was our surprise when we beheld Signor Lorenzo, our new French and Spanish professor. Enough said for the present. In physics we had Brother George Lewis and while he made most of us sit up and take notice, we nevertheless profited by his clear and interesting lessons.

Ther e w e re several attempts to carry out some social activities, but they were spoiled in the making. One reason may b e assign ~d for this lapse. Many of the students . o f. the class were represented on the various ~thletic teams, w h ich called forth all their energy. .A n event t h at might be mentioned in a way was the passing 'c)f a certain William Motley. He came, he saw, he looked a round, and then one fine day he went away and we never saw him again. Where he is, we know not. We ·started off with twenty-four and today we have nearly ·the whole cro wd . Among the many diversions that call for special attention was the "Mock Trial," in which A lphonse D eeh an was found guilty of speeding. I'm sor ry to say t h a t the lawyer for the defense was not v e ry alert. · Otherwise the verdict might have been otherWise. Do you see th e point; or do you? It. is now n ea ring the end and we are all awa1tmg the sound of the g o ng that will announce the end of the battle . . The y ear we thought was profitable and we all hope to renew the . b ~ttle of effort again, when the gong will sound in S e p temb er, 1920. JOHN McGOVERN, 1921.

THE SOPHOMORE CLASS

THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '22 La Salle College High op~ned on September 1 8, 1 91 8. This day will long be remembered, . as it brought together, as mere strangers, the freshmen class; they soon learned to know, esteem and to properly appraise one another's worth. Hailing fr?m .all parts of Philadelphia and the vicinity, differing in age, character, circumstances and antecedents, yet they all came for one purpose, to secure an education.

On September 18 , the opening day of school, the Freshman class became t he Sophmore class. As the class sat in their new room, many old faces were missed. Brother Edward was now th e regular teacher; Brother Maurice, the teacher of Spanish and History; Brother Richard, the teacher of Biology, and Professor Loranzo, the teacher of French. A dass meeting was called by Bowen, last year's president, .to elect class officers for the S ophmore year. Peter Callahan was elected president; John Stafford was elected .vice president; Frank Travaglini was elected secretary, and Brother Edward was elected treasurer. The class dues were placed a t 1 0 cents a week.

The students of the first high were assigned to a class on the third floor, their regular teacher being Brother Maurice; Brother Edward taught Algebra. The class soon settled down to work, and one of the first things done was to elect class officers. Joe Bowen was elected president; Joe Gindhart, treasurer, and Frank Travaglini, secretary.

The class was represen ted on the football squad by Reckner, F reney and Gindhart; on the basketball teams by Bowen and Gindhart ; o n the baseball team by R. White, ~eckner, and Calla han as manager.

After a month in school the class was given three weeks' vacation as many were taken sick by the dreaded influenza.

TheÂˇ Second High won the $2 5 offered for the class selling the most tickets for t h e La Salle Ball. At the last class meeting the date for the class picnic was set on June 1. It w as decided to go to Laurel Spring's. . It is thought by all to be an assured success.

On their return the class decided to have a basketball team; Jim Downey was secqred as coach. The team was composed of Landhere, Bowen, Nowach, Gindhart and McNulty. They played excellent ball, winning eight out of eleven games played.

The Jasper Basketball team of the Second High completed a very successful season. The team was composed of Schaebler and Mullen, forwards; Straub, center; Kueny and Ciccone, guards; Feeny and Trainer, subs. The team was coached by Joseph Bowen and Bernard Nowack.

As the pleasures of life do not. last very lohg, the end of the year drew near. The class was given their final examination and then vacation.

THE FRESHMAN CLASS-t 920

HISTORY of THE FRESHMAN CLASS The most remarkable feature .about the .Freshman class of the high school this year is that it has the largest body of students in any class in the whole college. Well, to begin wi"th, the class assembled on September 8 and after a Âˇfew days in which we got a~quainted with one another and had our books and things in general were in running order, the Brother Professor, Brother Maurice called for a class meeting, and the following were elected : President, 1oseph Lenahan; vice president, 1ohn Costello ; treasurer, Thomas P. Fitzgerald, secretary, 1ohn .Furey. Things went smoothly until the first test of the year, which was held around the middle of November. Around 'the Christmas holidays we had a grand entertainment, in which we sang, played various instruments and in general had a good all around time. When candidates were asked for football, basketball and baseball several of our class tried for positions, but we were a little inexperienced, and outside of one or two, none were on the first teams. We hope, however, next year to have some of members on all the teams. We did, however, have a basketball team in our class and played several games in which we were successful. Our class being the largest in . the high school, we hope to bring all the first year high into all the classes of the four years, making it the banner class of La Salle. I am sure you will hear more from us next year. Âˇ
