II a man's family is his fortune land we think that II is), then George Harkins is one of the most prosperous members of our alumni. As o mere stripling, George first mode contact with the Christian Brothers boclc in I 925, when lte entered rite tlfrlt grade ot St. Vincent's Parochial School, Germantown. He continued under lite Brothers' core unrll /tis graduation from La Salle In I 933. From that day unrll this he ltos never faltered in his loyalty and devotion to La Solie and to /tis former teachers. from the wealth accumulated over the years, George"s Alma Mater stands to come In for the richest endowmen t of all. The oldest of hi• len childrtm, George, Jr., repre•ents the tlrst installment with his graduation thia year, the five smaller premium a falling due at various times between now and I 961.


Nudless to soy, George Horklns's morriage venture at a relatively early age could never have paid off such hondsome dividends were it not for the constant Inspiration and love of his beautiful partner in life. The boys never lire ol hearing Dad recount the numberless stories of his own high school days suggested by the yellowing pictures and souvenirs in on early edition of the family scrap book. Going lrom baby Paul, who enjoys the most cherished position, ore: Joey, George, Jr., Emmel, Bobby, ond David. You con reod/ly see why the Harkins girls admit inferiority to th eir brothers in only one respectnumber~. Pretty Lorraine, Mory Lou, Rose Morie, and Polsy reflect four facets of their mother's girlhood beouty, which she simply refuus to relinquish.

A STRIKING REMINDER that religious families built our great nation and by a n exalted sense of morality made possible liberty and a high standard of living is the George Harkins family. Archibishop Cushing wisely said: "Democracy is ill served and the Faith not at all unless in our education planning, we acknowledge the responsibilities of the home." Our class deeply appreciates the parental faith, foresight, and sacrifices which directed us to the spiritual sons of Saint John Baptist de L<~ Salle. We came with the simple devotion to 04r lady which marks the Ca~holic home; we leave after four years with a greater and more profound love of our Immaculate Mother. In future years may Mary inspire a cred~able representation of "Brothers' Boys" in the homes of her devoted client-fathers of the class of nineteen hundred and fifty-two.



IN FOND REMEMBRANCE OF A PRINCE OF THE CHURCH. Dennis Cardinal Dougherty, as spiritual head of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia for thirty-three years, was fully cognizant of the worth of the family impregnated with living Catholic Faith in rendering his flock healthy and strong. With the wisdom of the saints, this holy prelate envisioned an extensive Christocentric system of education, whereby the Faith of his ~hildren could be preserved and increased. God, in His goodness, granted this zealous priest length of days to see his dream fulfilled. Numerous schools imparting the knowledge and love of Christ and His Church stand as enduring monuments throughout the archdiocese to the memory of this native son of the coal regions of eastern Pennsylvania, who merited the highest honors ever accorded an American priest.

AS HEARTFELT WELCOME TO A WORTHY SUCCESSOR. Archbishop John F. O'Hara, C.S.C. is neither a stranger to Philadelphia nor to the work of Catholic education. As a young priest, the newlyappointed successor of Cardinal Dougherty served the archdiocese for a time in the parish of St. Francis de Sales. Perhaps his supreme achievement a9 former president of the University of Notre Dame was the encouragement he gave to the practice of frequent and even daily Communion among the students there. It was as Prefect of Religion that this sympathetic priest initiated the publication of the "Religious Bulletin," which has given new courage and inspiration to thousands whose only other association with Notre Dame was, perhaps, a radio broadcast of a Saturday afternoon gridiron contest. In the few months since his installation here, the sincere devotion of Archbishop O'Hara has already won countless friends among all denominations in Philadelphia.

The boys of sophomore A exchange views as to the correct an swers for the Spanish quix which has jud fin ished.

Five students, anxious to ~now what the day has in store for them, ta~e a quick glance at the daily bulletin before goin g to their homerooms.


Things of beauty lead to God. The present site of La Salle College and High School, obtained in 1929, is both pleasant and attractive in its surroundings. Within easy reach of the main arteries of surface and subway transportation, not quite six miles from City Hall, the campus still retains the aura of open country with its scenic background of beautiful Wisler woods. Handsome buildings of Collegiate Gothic st/e dominate spacious grounds that are landscaped with a view to the picturesque as well as路 the practical. The neighboring College buildings, only recently augmented with the construction of the new library, stand as lasting monuments to the names of such devoted friends as the late Brother Gervald Le~a rd, J ohn McShain, and John McCarthy. From its place of prominence the shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes offers protective hands to all who pass through the quadrangle. An impressive statue of the Sacred Heart overlooks all school activities, end ol day long the waning rays of the sun reflect a myriad of colors from the cruciform stain gloss window of McShain Hall.

The sleep stairways al La S11llo form one of its structural wea~ne"es. Well aware of this, our boys move as slowly as pouiblo in returning to clan after an assembly.

Newly fallen snow and ice-encrusted trees transForm the quadrangle into a winter wonderland.

On their first day of school a coterie of bewildered freshmen gather on the steps of the east entrance to trade impressions.

Several juniors from the high school pause outside the faculty house to make friends with some of the student Brothers from Elkins Park.

Sidewalk superintendents from "acrou the way" give their stamp of approval to the final stages of the college library construction.

The air of confidence around Bob Walker and Tom McCome skey betray the fact that they have been around La Salle for awhile.

For o man of not too many yeors, Brother Francis hos been ot La Solie sufficiently long to be regarded by mony as o kind of permanent fixture. His name has adorne;:l the High School rosters over the post twelve years. After brief periods of service at St. Francis Vocational School. Eddingtcn, ond Centro! Catholic High School, Pittsburgh, Brother came to 20th and Olney where he hos engaged himself in sundry capocities until the present. The superior administrative qualities which Brother Francis manifested this year were born of his previous experience as director of athletics. Our gratitude for a job well done, ond sincere good wishes for even greater success in the years ahead.

What is it obout La Salle that after four years of mental drudgery makes us just a little sad in leaving now that our task here is accomplished? Could it be those fond memories of our freshman days in McShain Hall, pitting our puny strength against the overwhelming odds of Brother Emilian s declensions and conjugations? It may be that the secrets of life revealed to us in a drop of water in sophomore biology seem so simple next to the complex entanglements of life in the world in which we are about to seek our place. Mr. D'Angelo "nd his course in American literature will always be a bright spot whenever we reminisce over the years. The senior yeor, the fulfillment of our youthful hopes and ambitions, instills a warm affection which even smooths over the rough spots-the disappointments and failures which marked our career. This tinge of sorrow mingled with the gladness of graduation is the final evidence that our stay here has been a happy one ~

LEFT: Believe it or not, that's Don Keiser passing out copies of the "Wis." Fred Springer is the "anrious" recipient.

In our junior year, as in every other year, the spiritual highpoint of the annual retreat was the reception of Holy Communion.

As freshmen we had plans for settina on fire the field of journalism. If we achioved nothing else, at least we changed the size of the paper.

Then there were Brother Bernard's instructions in the science of splints and bandages. Bill Bickley offers his services as a subject for demonstration.

Anyone examonong the honor rolls of the pre11nt senior class for the pest four years will readily applaud the selection of JOHN FLANNERY as the student with the HIGHEST SCHOLASTIC AVERAGE. St. Benedict's Parish may justly boast of the fact that they are responsible for the solid foundation on which John has erected such stately mansions in the realm of learning. A mark of John's completely unselfish 11ttitude is his readiness to explain a difficult point after class to e less g ifted classmete. He is so highly regarded by his fellow stude nts that he was unanimously elected president of his class in his senior year. To a loyal supporter of all school ectivities and a truly congenial compenion, we sincerely bid Godspeed to John for future suc:c:ess and happiness.

senior, TOM LYNCH , has literally spent himstlf in the furtherance of extracurricular organizations. Tom, serving as president of both the Benilde Club end Glee Club, hAs infused these groups with his own unique knack for unexcelled ec:c:omplishments in a sedate, yet prolific, fashion. THE WISTERIAN has righteously boasted of his thought-provoking religious editorials. In recognition of his invalueble contributions to the BLUE AND GOLD, Tom was appointed ih oditor. Besides his participation in intramural sports, Tom also found time to walk off with the c:lass scholastic medal in his junior year. Want something done? Look for Tom Lynch!

To select the MOST REPRESENTATIVE senior is not always easy, especially when there ere so many likely prospects to choose from. Careful consideration of almost every c:onc:eivable phase of personality finally led to SAL PONTI as the boy who most completely personifies the ideals of young Catholic: manhood, which La SALLE strives to cultivate in ell its students. His manly, yet pleasing, ways have won for Sal lasting friendships among his teachers end c:lassmetes. His soc:iel life contains a nicely balanced diet of sports, girls, and a variety of other interests centered around his parish, St. Madeleine Sophie, and his school. La Salle has honored you, Sal; now it is your turn.


BILL GALLAGHER, captain of cross country and trac~. was voted the BEST ATHLETE of the class of 1952 because of his outstanding performances on both teams for the past four years. In his senior year the red Mercury from St. Timothy's Parish bro~e all existing La Salle cross country records, and in the All-Philadelphia Championship Meet was awarded a medal for being the first Catholic league runner to finish. He garnered further laurels in the Spi~ed Shoe Indoor Track Meet as the number one miler in the Catholic league. Bill concluded the 1952 indoor season in brilliant style by breaking the tape ahead of a large field from the Philadelphia Catholic and Public leagues, the lnteracademic and Suburban leagues, and additional rivals from Wilmington and W ashington. Presently Bill has his sites set on the twentyfive year old La Salle outdoor mile record, and we think that he can do it.

Franklin Field on a c:risp Saturday afternoon provides the background for drum major John Walsh •• the Blue •nd Gold aggregation

ta~es

the field

for the California Bears.

In tho spirit of Halloween the La Salle band rehearses its pumpkin formation to the music: of "Shine on, Harvest Moon."

La Salle's marching band, considered by some to be the best high school band in the Philadelphia area, completed its sixth successful seo~on in a burst of glory. Brother F. John, the moderator, is the enthusiastic organizer of all band activities. The man chiefly responsible for the music and marching formations which thrill thousands each year is our director, Mr. Joseph Colantonio. Through the efforts of these two men, a snappy sixty-piece unit took to the field for every football game. Tricky and varied were the dance steps accompanied by such popular favorites as "The Mexican Hat Dance," "When Frances Dances With Me," "Casey," "The Rhumba," and many other lively tunes. The periormance of the band was further heightened by the expert baton-twirling of graduate Bill Quilty. familiar to all who follow the Penn games. Student assemblies and the Saturday night dances ta~e on a new look whenever "The Wisterians" appear on the program.


An enthusiastic crowd of music lovers filled the college auditorium on three consecutive evenings for the Spring Music Festival. The concert band, under the baton of Mr. Joseph Colantonio, shared honors with the glee club and its director, Mr. Eugene King. The guest conductors were lavish in their praise of La Salle's well-developed musical talents. The recital offered a program wide enough to satisfy every discriminating taste and resulted in the acceptance of many invitations for appearances outside the school.

One of the most pleasing specialties of the 1951 Spring Festival was the velvet voico of Chester Zu~ows~i. an eighth grade pupil of St. John the Baptist's school in Manayunk.

The annual Spring Music Festiva l has surpassed all others in ih bid for the outstanding cultural activity at La Solie. This musical climu of the year is the result of many months of tedious practic:e and preparation.


During their tour of the school on Open House Night, Mr. and Mrs. Peculski, with their son Bob as guide, look in the art room to seo what our budding "Rembrandts" are doing.

Brother William carefully observes the progress of Bob Blackley as Sal Ponti and Jim Rose seem completely ab路 sorbed in the~r work. A certain Brother thinks Sal does his most ins'pired wor~ in the English class.

Outstanding among the cultural activities at La Salle is t he A rt Club. Brother Frederick William, under whose able guidance the members are instructed in the use of various mediums of art from charcoal and pastels to watercolors and oils, has succeeded in urging his charges on to accomplish unusually fine work with words of encouragement or advice. This year several novel means of instruction were introduced wit h a view to developing originality on the pa rt of the students. One of these innovations was the use of fam iliar ob jects to suggest original ideas for still-life painting s and dra wing s.

The retail merchants of Germantown feel that one way to prevent youthful vandalism ot Halloween is to offer the youngsters a legitimato outlet for their artistic bents. Senior Jack Lombard applies an original creation to one of the shop windows.

Brother W illiam discusses a point with Pete Byrne as Dick Riccio, John Presto, Jim Rose, and Bill Aherne apply themselves at the to ble.

Father Billy vests before celebrating Mass a ccording to the Greek Catholic Rite during the Chu rch Unity Octave. Members of the Benilde Club enjoyed the un usual experience of receiving Holy Communion under both species.

Brother David Albert discusses additions to the club's reserved book section in t he library with President Tom Lynch and assistant officers G~ rrv Chesnes, John Burns, and John Barry.

In seeking to interest its membe rs in d irect C~ th足 olic Action, the Benilde Club emphasizes the du ty o f the individual a nd the power of the .Catholic group. Its social activities Me directed tow~rds ~ knowledge of the work done by religious and alwoys h~ve a background of practic~l cha rity. . Group prayers for g uidance in the proper choice of voc~足 tion and visits to outstonding C atholic centers ~re features of the club. Brother David Albert, who has served a s moder~tor of t he club since its inception, has a long list of fo rmer members who are now serving God in religion or in the world as ~ctive l~y apostles.


"Music is the medicine of the mind." For his second se11son liS director, Mr. Eugene King h11s offered 11 music11l tonic that was pleasontly p11 l11table both to the members of the club 11nd to their delighted audiences. Every member of the group, from freshman tenor to senior bass, monifested poise and pleasing restraint in both classical and popular renditions that marked this ye11r's glee club with a distinctive personality.

One section of the glee c:lub is pictured under the direction of Mr. Eugene King at one of the frequent rehearsals necessary before the boys have built up their repertoire for the Spring Festival.

The many hours of arduous practice for the glee club go unheralded until the Spring Festival pre•enh the members with the opportunity to show their wares. Then the resounding applause enures them that it was well worth the effort.




The purpose of the lnterMtional Relations Club is to better ocquoint La Salle students with current foreign affairs. With Brother Doniel Hilary at the helm, this yeor's executive body consisted of Sal Ponti, president, ond Billy Mikhell ond Jerry McHugh as vice-presidents. Once a mon~h a general meeting is held ot the Bellevue-Stratford, where a guest speoker tolks on some subject of international interest, and then follows o lively debate of the problem under consideration. Each meeting is brought to a close with a spirited discussion between the students selected from four of the schools represented. Weekly meetings are held at the club's central-city headquarters where interested students may hear well-known international figures speak.

Brother Daniel Hilary, moderator of the I.R.C., conducts an informal meeting with President Sal Ponti, Matt Watts, John Krieger, and "Mike" McCormick to set up future plans.

Joe Donohoe reads Time's latest account of developments in the Orient to Walt Gordon and Len Thompkins as Felix Ruuo points out significant places on the world globe.

Joe Gagliardi prefers to tacile the eco路 nomic problems of the world. He finds an attentive audience in Bill Bieler and Tom Miller, $landing behind Jack Monaghan and Bill Mitchell.


Pray, brethren, that your sacrifice and mine my be acceptable to God the Father Almighty.

• Behold the Lamb of God ; behold Him who ta kest away the sins of the world.

On Oc~ober 3, seven-hundred La Salle H igh School students began their three days of recollection Md spiritual inventory with attendance at Mass. Under the direction of Father Colbert, C.M., everyday school octivitie~ were suspended in favor of daily Mass, spiritual reading, community recitation of Rosary and other public prayers, and thoughtprovoking talks by the Brothers as well as the retreat master. On the final day of the retreat each one o f us had been drawn closer to the love and friendship of God through the shower of graces He had ra ined on us during these days. Father Colbert, C.M., this year's rt treat master, rev iews some of the essentials of Catholic living in one of his sermons to the assembled student body.

Charles Appel, who turned in e masterful performance of the coward in Sub· merged. elicits only contempt from Cap· tein Relph Gutekunst, "ChuHer" Me· llveine, Frank Montague, Ed Connolly, end Clem Feeny.

Guess who drew the high card?

You're

right .•• Charley did, end he's not too keen on the idea.

The Dramatics Club, capably guided by veteran moderator Brother Stephen, proposes to La Salle students the priceless opportunity of giving expression to any acting inclinations they might harbor. It was necessary to call on the services of two men to fill the post left vacant by Mr. Andrea D'Angelo after the Army discovered that he was more valuable to them than to La Salle. Brother Gratian and Mr. Joseph Early, have succeeded in keeping our interest in dramatics a live. Because of the apathetic attitude of our students in the past toward the traditional senior play, it was decided that the presentation of a series of one-act plays would better serve the end for which the club was inaugurated back in 1948. The student reaction to the first of the series, Subme rged, would seem to indicot0 that the move was a wise one.

Suspense fills the air as Clem Feeny and "Chukker" Mcilvaine draw cards aboard the sunken sub to see who gets shot through the torpedo tube to drew notice from rescue craft above.

Before this publication went to press, much time, effort, and preparotion went into its composition. Twenty seniors, who contributed in one. way or another to the finol production of this book, devoted many hours so that the '52 edition of "The Blue ond Gold" would meosure up to the cherished reputation of La Salle yearbooks in the past. Without the experienced guidance and unstinting assistance of Brother Gerald Chorles ond Mr. Joseph Moron, this book could never hove become an actuality. If it meets with your approval then we feel amply rewarded for our porns.

1952 marks the eighteenth consecutive year that La Salle has sponsored the Grade School Basketball Tournament in its field house. For the sa me number of yeers Mr. Basketball himself, "Obie" O'Brien, has always been on hand to award both individual and team trophies. This year almost seven hundred youngsters, representing si)(ty-eight teams, responded to the invitations. These boys wore the colors of schools located in every part of Philadelphie and its suburbs, and some in neighboring New J ersey. It would be interesting to know how mony of our local basketball "greats ' in the last ten or fifteen years received their first taste of stiff compe tition in the Grode School Tourney. When these ~ids play everybody turns out • . • Mom, Pop, b ig brothers, little sisters, the parish priests . • . yes, even the eighth g rade nun is there to ma~e sure her boys bring home the " bacon:'

Two boys from St. Benedict's have no doubt as to who the recipient of the first-place award will be. There is just one little hitch--sixty-seven other teams fee l the same way.

Judging from the bench -warmers biting their nails, the boy in a praying posture, and tho coach wiping his brow, I would say that the youngsters from Frankford have a battle on their hands.

The Mother's Club sponsors numerous social events throughout the year among which are the Freshman Tea, the Communion Breakfast and the New Year's card party. Of principal interest to the students are the weekly Saturday night dances. But, as always, the crowning achievement of ihe year is La Salle Night, a gala combination of card party and dance. It always promises unlimited entertainment for all who attend.

Struggling to conceal their own disappointment, coaches hove often tried to raise the drooping morale of their players during the lean years by pointing out that it is more difficult to play on a losing team than on a winning team. The members of this year's football squad here at La Salle found this to be only too true. Although the results of the 1951 football season by recognized standards of success left much to be desired, the team never stopped trying. In most of the games La Salle's inexperienced and injury-riddled eleven was hopelessly outclassed by the opposition, but thanks to the unrelenting efforts and inspiration of Mr. Meyers and Mr. Gallagher, every player fought down to the final gun.

Brother Jeremy, moderator of f.ootball, briefs the squad on jobs to be completed before vacating the scenic surroundings of Villa St. John's after two wonderful weeks at camp.

You wouldn't soy that we enjoyed an abundance of leisure time during our two weeks stay at Villa St. John's in picturesque northern New Jersey. Still, time was kept from growing heavy by friendly card sessions whenever inclement weather confined us to our cabins.


• The jur ior vorsity footboll teom fared somewhat better thon their older stablemates. This team composed mostly of sophomores and several freshmoo stondouts, with its record of two wins, two losses, ond one tie, offers more hopeful prospects to La Solie fons for the next few years. The crowning point of the seoson wos the 13-13 tie with West Catholic to terminote West's two-yeor reign as top team in the J.V. leogue. The fact that both losses were by only one touchdown gives further height to our optimism.

Frank Garoppo is a hard man to stop once he starts to move. At leost these boys on North's sophomore team should accept this statement without question.

La Salle's hopes for future victories on the gridiron are pinned on these hard-driving sophomore members of the junior varsity squad.

Apparently there is some doubt about that last game. Brother Thomas oblingingly rechecks the score in an intersquad practice match during the regular season.

Lo Solie's 1952 bowling hopes appeared on the upswing after a rather disappointing season in 1951, when it finished sixth in the league. Four seniors-Steve Levy, Tom Morrison, Jock Monaghan, and Bill Mitchell, along with sophomore Ed Michie-constitute an experienced nucleus from which Brother E. Thomas, the moderator of bowling, hos formed a most representative group. Steve Levy and Tom Morrison display the form that made them o tough combinat ion to beat.


Thonks to the persistent effort of Brother Dacion John, seosoned Bill Gollogher, ond several newcomers to the teom, this yeor La Salle enjoyed its most successful cross-country season ever. Outstonding omen~ the newcomers were George Harkins, Bill Jackson, Tom Dooner, and Ed Allinson. The regular season was unimpressive for our harriers. who marked up only three victories over North. South, and Roman Catholic. With the approach of the Catholic league championships, not much hope wos held for the Explorers in most quarters. In the face of heavy odds our boys went out and finished second in the Catholic league, following close on the heels of West Catholic. In maneuvering one of the biggest surprises in league history, La Salle ended o most successful season by finishing sixfh out of eighteen in the Inquirer meet.

Among the seventy boys who responded to Mr. O'Brien's annual call for varsity and J.V. bosketeers, there were only four returning lettermen. A tentative team was selected by Obie after three weeks of intersquad games and scrimmages with Southern, Lincoln, Ben Franklin, and Lower Merion rounded the boys into mid-season form. In league play the Little Explorers chalked up eight wins against six losses, a record which was bettered only by St. Thomas More and West Catholic, and which also earned the O'Brienmen a berth in the playoffs. Defending champions St. Thomas More proved too strong an opponent as they downed the Blue and Gold team in the first game of the playoffs, but La Salle retu rned to clinch third place with a victory over St. James in the consolation game. A word of praise is due to Mr. O'Brien and to the three senior members of his team, Captain Bill Jackson, Harry Bense, and Joe Garvey, whose inspirational leadership caused La Salle to be regarded as a constant threat right down to the finish .

Bill Jackson and Bob Kraemer, muter rebound artists, typify the driving spirit whi ch marked this year's team throughout the entire season.

Incidentally, the golfing dentist is another Brothers' product from Memphis, Tennessee.

Brother Thomas registers mixed feelings of satishction and suspicion at Bill Paul's claim to a par four. Jay Dunphy lines up his putt, while Joe Kendra just wonders, "How can you win? ..

The La Solie golf team entered the 1952 campaign in o decidedly favorable position. Only one member of last year's teom was lost by graduation, ond the remoining odvocates of the "Royol and Ancient Gome" proved by their ploy what excellent coaching and training can accomplish. Much of the credit for the teom's improvement belongs to Brother G. Thomos, moderotor of golf. Sam Pennacle, one of the best amateur golfers in this part of the country, and Bill Weber, professionol at Cedarbrook, both hod a share in the moulding of the present teom.

Bob Rae and Hughie Flanigan agree to the wisdom of the maxim that a clean ball is a seen ball. Of course, when you belt them where these boyr do, a Geiger counter is your best bet.

~WIMMI~~ For the '52 campaign the swimming team was bui" around three members-Captain John Schmidt, Jack Barrett, and Franck Jarecki. Schmidt starred in the ind'vidual medley and the 100 yard breaststroke. Barrett swam in the 40 and I00 yard freestyle events, while Jarecki racked up points in the 200 yard free-style or one of the relays. Freshman Jim Gaughan was most dependable in the I00 yard bockstroke. The diving was taken care of by Joe McOscar and Jack Kl'nges. Tom Devlin teamed up with Jarecki in the 200 yord free-style. Joe Bowen and Joe Schmidt took port in the 100 yord breast stroke competi• on and John Walsh was another Explorer entry 1n the bock-stroke events.

Under the experienced coaching of Mr. Michael De Angelis and the faithful moderatorship of Brother Godwin John, this year's mermen chalked up another sotisfactory season. Following the loss of many key men from last year's championship squod, the present edition of La Salle swimmers has merited a place second to none among Explorer teams for its never-say-die spirit. In the I952 season La Salle, with but four returning lettermen, has preserved the reputation of which we are justly proud, that of being one of the consistently good teams in the Catholic league. Since Captain John Schmidt and Joe McOscar are the only departing seniors, we hold an optimistic view for next year.

Jack Walsh, Jim Gaughan, and Paul Wuest vie with one another in the I 00 yard backstroke event at one of the frequent practice sessions.


Last year's Explorer entry in the Schuylkill Navy went all out and surpassed every existing record by winning the three big races-the Sto+esbury, the U. S. Schoolboy Regatta, and the City Championship. Competition was unusually keen, but our strongbacks copped all three titles with their steady pacing stroke. The "blue jerseys" trailed during the first holf of the Stotesbury race but slowly edged pasf their arch contender, Washington and Lee, which had won the title for two successive years. Again, in the Schoolboy Regatta the La Salle eight fought it out tip to tip to the finish to win by half a length. The sweepswingers then put fhe crowning touch to their victory streak by taking the City Championship race and in doing so, bettered the times established in the previous races. Even in mounting the picture of last yea r's wonn ong crew, Ed W ilson, Jed W ild e, and " Chukker" Mcilva ine employ the same kind of teamwork that won t hem the na tional schoolboy rowing c rown.

Sho"ing off with high hopes for another successful sea son are the probable starling eight for the '52 campaign. From the stern: Matt Watts, Vince Srymkowski, Dave Collins, Joe Scheiter, Jack Dever, Joe O'Hora, Bill Reynolds Ed Wilson (stroke). and Bernie McCormick (Couwain).


Winning f<! .. m< dn rnf jus! h4pp9n. La Salle •weepswingers owe their \plendid record to the competent cooching of Bill Campbell, Du~e Torer. Mr. Charles Mcilvaine, and to the wholehearted interest o! Brother Cassian, moderotor of crew. While Joe O'Hora, Frank Boland, and Hermon Schmidt look on, Tony Mull demonstrates the art of rope climbing as one way of gelling in shape.

In addition to a championship eight, La Salle also produced a champion single oarsman, Charles Mcilvaine, who won the John B. Kelly Cup, the National Junior Championship Sculling Trophy, and other honors.

The 1952 b~ seb~ll team, coached by Mr. Harry Woltemate, op~ed its defense of the Catholic l e~gue title g~rn ered by last year's championship te~m. Although graduation claimed eight of the l~tter, when the initial bellow of "play ball ' was he~ rd, Mr. Woltem~te and the new moderator, Brother Ge rv~ l d John, fielded a team wh'ch gave all comers some pretty stiff competition. Returning for ~ ction on the diamond this year were seniors John G ranozio, Paul Gandolfo, Frank Ganley, Jim Harvey. John Curtis, and Joe McOscar. They were joined by experienced juniors Vic Hoepfl and Bob Sweet. Several members of last year's hustling junior varsity squad were moved up to fill out the roster.

At La Salle the turnout for America's favorite game far surpasses that of any other sport. Mr. Woltemote addresses a small percentage of those who aMwered the first coli for candidates. The smooth functioning of the Explorer ball club owes o great deol to its steff of hustling managers路 Frank Butterworth, K.. nt Gdrson, Jirn Kuhn , end Joe H ill.

While it is still too early in the season to forecast the outcome of this year's track campaign, it is expected that the cindermen will keep alive the successes gained by their cross-country cousins. The loss of long-strided half-miler Tom Golo is one which will be hard to replace. Nevertheless, with Gallagher, Dooner, and Harkins back, the distance events should be our forte. Brother John also has plans for Wright, Chesnes, Dooner, and Gallagher, who he hopes will pose as formidob!e a mile relay team on the track as they do on paper. Brother John's hopes also include a successful bid for retention of the State Class B Championship won at Allentown last year. It could be o motter of mistaken judgment to discount this team as a possible threat in regular league competition.

With the cheers of basketball fans still resounding in his ears, rangey Bob Kraemer moves from the hardwood to the cinders as he works out on the low hurdles. Six of Brother John's hopefuls line up for a quick getaway: John Gall, Bernie Blumenthal, Joe Rumer, John Quigley, Paul Hettwer, and Myles Martin. Getiing those muscles back in shape is no easy matter, eh George 7 Jachon, Donahue, Dooner, Wright, Gallagher, Chesnes, and Harkins run through their calisthenics before pounding the cinders.

The fabu lous win of the College in this year's N.I.T. playoffs in Madison Square Gardens stirred up a great deal of interest over the entire campus. But even t his glory fades into a subordinate position when compared to the violent enthusiasm of a class that has walked off with a banner in the intramural program. These victory pennants are now proudly flying from the battlements of Brother William's IF in the freshman group, Brother Alphonsus's 2B among the sophomores, Brother Dacian John's 3E in the junior division, and Brother Thomas's 4B in the senior depadment. The success of the program is largely due to Brother Gervald John, director of intramurals, t~nd to his efficient staff of Brothers and boys who gave of their time so generously to referee the gomes.
