T h e jo y s o f o ur H ig h Sch ool life w ere m any, its pleasures num erous, and its friendships enduring. B u t all things m ust pass aw ay. T h is is indeed the inevitable hour, and w e m ust pass on, but, ere w e go, w e shall chronicle our h istory so that it m ay ever serve as the lin k betw een m em ory and realization. P r a y , kind reader, m ake the jo u rn e y backw ards w ith us as w e unravel the script o f time.

T o the upper classmen, Septem ber 8, 1919, w as m erely a cessation o f the sum m er’s jo y s and the resum ption o f old acquaintances, but to a fu ll hundred and tw en ty, it w as the bigg est thin g that had ever occurred in life.

Som e had the good fortun e to fa ll under the teachin g o f M r. F u ller, S.J., and M r. E ichorn, S.J. T o those w ho did, M r. F u lle r essayed to convince us that L atin could still cause quite a fe w difficulties, w h ile M r. E ich o rn told us the w hys and w h ere­ fo res o f the w inds, the seas, the mountains, and glaciers.

P erh ap s it w as that w e w ere so busy, o r again perhaps it w as because w e w ere beginning to e n jo y our n ew -found friendships, but the fa c t rem ains, that the months flew by on the w in g s o f M ercu ry, and ere w e had settled down, June w as upon us and th e first quadrant o f our jo u rn ey w as Suspiciously brought to a close, by an outing to N e w D orp, S. I. B u t our regrets a t p artin g fro m M r. F u lle r w ere lessened by the acquisition o f the late M r. H e n ry V . O ’N e il as our teacher. O u r m ediocre im agination can p ay no fittin g tribute to him as beautiful, nor as w on derful, as the shrine dedicated to his m em ory in the heart o f each and e ve ry one o f us. U n der his kind guidance w e first becam e acquainted w ith G reek, and the pleasure w as all— the G reek’s. W e had had a w o n d erfu l summer until G reek cam e alon g, but w e had a terrible “ F a ll.” I t w as here, too, that C aesar first became kn ow n to us— to m any th rou gh vest-pocket in ter­ preters— and poured his w oe into our ears. T h e first banquet o f the C lass o f ’23 w as held shortly a fte r E a ste r in the B lu e R oom o f the H o tel St. T heresa, on G rand Street, a t that time an annex o f the school. A n d even though home-made victuals

f

did supplement those o f the caterer, a m ore en jo yable tim e w ou ld be hard to im agine.

A n d then, again a fe w fleeting hours and “ exam s” w ere the order o f the day, and a fte r a final outing to B e a r M ountain, classes w ere adjourned fo r a period o f three months b y consent o f a ll concerned.

W e roused ourselves once again fro m the leth argy o f summer, and under the leadership o f M r. L eo J. G illeran, S.J., took up the w o rk o f e xca va tin g the buried c ity o f “ L ea rn in g .” W h eth er o r not w e succeeded, our teachers m ust say. W ith X enophon w e skipped about A s i a : w e sat and drow sed w hile C icero boasted, and w e deciphered the M use o f V ir g il. A ft e r the advent o f our class paper, T h e Gleaner, w e put fo rth H ercu lean efforts to establish it as a model piece o f literature and the result w as not only h ig h ly g ra tify in g , but it brought fo rth numerous imitations by other classes. Rem em bering the phrase about imitation, w e w ere indeed flattered.

Sin ce the cream o f the Classes o f 2 -A and 2-B now made up the C lass 3 -A , it w as not at all surprising that a large part, indeed, a greedy part, o f the school spot-

Qfoe (frepbcat) lig h t w as occupied by our mem bers. D ram atics, D ebatin g, and School Journalism called them, and, in g o o d ly num bers, did they respond.

T h a t the class abounded in class and school spirit is beyond doubt. I f you w ere to a sk anyone, w ho attended the Junior P rep banquet a t N e w a rk fo r his opinion o f it, he w ou ld declare, to use a com m on term , it w as a “ how lin g success.” red-blooded, in sp irin g speeches brought the enthusiasm to a high pitch.

T h rillin g ,

I t w as a t this ju n c tu re 'th a t w e received a terrible shock, w hen w e learned that M r. O ’N e il had joined the' silent a rm y o f those w e had “ L oved and lost aw hile.”

D e ath has robbed us A n d once again lea v in g M r. G illeran assum e the toga, and

o f his presence, but it cannot tear fro m us the m em ory o f him.

June w as d raw in g nigh, and excep t fo r the fa c t th at w e w ere bphind, w e looked fo rw a rd e age rly to the d ay w hen w e should authority o f Seniorship.

T h e fo u rth and la st y e a r in the h istory o f the C lass Of ’23, has been one o f much hard labor, and little restin g b y the w ayside. O nce aga in division o f classes to o k place. B a sk in g in denoting our rank, decided to keep as T o show our

the sunshine o f seniorship, w e decided some badge befitting and and f rom m any sam ples w e fin ally selected a rin g w hich the class a token o f graduation. fond rem em brance o f a devoted friend, an ann iversary mass, in

m em ory o f M r. H e n ry O ’N eil, S.J., w as conducted under the auspices o f the F ourth Y e a r C lasses, on F rid a y m orning, M a rch 23, last, attended by the school in a body.

T h e Sen io r P rep banquet, w hich w a s held on F eb ru a ry 10, Was a w o n d erfu lly successfu l affa ir, being held under the shadow o f the school; in fact, so successful w as it, that it w a s unanim oqsly agreed to return y e a rly fo r a class reunion.

B e fo r e closing, w e have a w o rd to s a y : T o all our p refects and teachers, in general, and to each one individually, w e are sincerely indebted fo r the noble standards set b e fo re us. W e thank all and hope that the years to come w ill bear out their teachings in our lives.

T o Junior P r e p : T o -d a y it is n earin g the sunset, and its flow er w ill soon close.

S o o n w e shall surrender to you. W e shall fire our last salute and draw our pennant fro m the m asthead to m ake room fo r that o f 1924. A fe w days and the standard w ill be yours. G uard it w ell, so that no bligh t m ay com e upon its stainless name.

I t is yours to keep the faith, to uphold the traditions that have been handed down, and that shall, w ith yo u r help, be handed dow n to others until the clocks o f H eaven have sounded the death-knell o f time.

W ith C aesa r w e prepared fo r the rigo rs o f our second cam paign. O u r old friend, M r. H ayden , w as again appointed our leader. F o r ten lo n g months our course w as beset w ith fierce combats, w hich threatened to destroy us entirely in the dangerous realm o f m athem atics.

B u t our G reek general, M r. H e n ry V . O ’N e il, guided us s a fe ly into the prom ised land o f G reek culture. N o t content w ith the conquests w e had alread y made, w e set out to w in fam e in the athletic line. A class basketball team w as form ed and m any w ere the victories that resulted. In the athletic drive, 2B fa r outshone e ve ry other class in the Junior Section. O u r class outing, one that w ill linger in our minds fo r m any a year, w as a huge success.

A f t e r a short leave o f absence, w e again came to camp and started our third cam paign. O u r tu to r during this yea r w as M r. J. A . M cC a rl, S.J. W e w ere e arly introduced to Cicero, and if som e o f us don’t kn o w w ho he w as, it isn’t C ice ro ’s fault.

St. Peter’s has long desired a monthly magazine. The necessity of linking the past with the present generation, and keeping the old grad’s thoughts with his A'lma Mater has been keenly felt. The Petrean of last year endeavored to serve this purpose and successfully encountered the task.

It was issued at each quarter of the school term and met with instantaneous approval. One deficiency, however, was evident. The long interval between issues proved an impediment to -its progress. The news in the columns consequently lacked the much-desired “ freshness.” In order to eliminate this difficulty it was decided during the earlier part of the present term to publish the Petrean as a monthly magazine. The decision of the editors was joyously received.

Opening the year as a monthly, many new features were included in the composition of the Petrean. The Editor’s Mail Bag, the column of Humor called Gibes and Jabs, a page devoted to Athletics, Tid Bits or Local Events and an Alumni Column were some of the innovations. The literary style was acclaimed interesting, well-mirroring the affairs of the school in an inauspiciously impressive manner.

(®ur (frrlrpstra In the education of youth among the ancient Greeks, along with athletics and general culture, Music went hand in hand. Sprung from the same Muse as her sister Poesy, and nurtured by the same inspiration, the goddess of song and ancient dance grew in the hearts and tastes of our classical forebears. And thus it is that even in the twentieth century at St. Peter’s where the torch of classical lore is kept burning, the develop­ ment of musical tastes is not neglected. Our Orchestra plays its faint theme in the grand symphony of our united activities.

Early in October, Mr. Gilleran, S.J., the competent Moderator, sounded loud and long throughout the buildings the call for members. Restricted to names of boys who could boast of at least three years of experience in handling their instrument, our embryonic orchestra began with twenty mem­ bers. In the new atmosphere of the Junior Building, sharps and flats gave way to naturals, rough ways were made smooth while dissonance and caco­ phony were shaped into something akin to harmony. The orchestra was pulsating rhythmically.

A part from regaling the jug-o-noughts, however, the orchestra con­ fesses its utter shyness in appearing publicly. Father Prefect of Studies was kind enough to suggest our playing at the “Honor Day” gatherings in the hall; and it must be said with regret that these were the only occasions graced by our “Lopez” endeavors. We expect that the annual Elocution Contest and Prize Debate will, nevertheless, bring out into musical volume pent-up force and energy.

To the credit of the orchestra, in conclusion, Peter’s “Prepsters” were given a new school song: two new football songs: “Fight, Fight, Fight” and The first, at least, W e expect to have published not goes to press.

JmrtbaU O u r nineteen tw en ty-tw o fo otball season, w hile not resplendent w ith brillian t accom plishm ent, w as one o f w hich St. P e te r’s men are ju s tly proud.

D u rin g this grid iro n year, traditions o f o ur A lm a M a te r on the field w ere n obly upheld. T h e dauntless fighting sp irit o f the team w as evinced in every encounter. A nd, though five tim es our lads bore d efeat, their conquerors n ev­ er le ft the scene o f battle w ithout the highest esteem o f our boys.

V e r y fe w regu lars remained fro m the previous y e a r and the newcom ers, the m a jo rity o f them, w ere unexperi­ enced in the scientific gam e o f fo o t­ ball. T h e foundations o f the sport had to be instilled into them. In every engagem ent the “ P eterites” coped w ith v e ry h eavy opponents.

So, d efeat seems to have been inevitable in some gam es. T h ere, is how ever, one quality w hich bespeaks a good team and in w hich w e ven ture to, proclaim that St. M r. H u g h F . D o h e r t y P e te r’s excelled every r i v a l : true sportsm anship w as their ideal, and they acted a cco rd in gly both in v ic to ry and defeat.

T h e season w as inaugurated w ith a v ic to ry o ver the stron g U p sala C o llege team, 6-0. N e x t cam e our ancient foe, B ro o k lyn Prep . T h e lads fro m the “ C ity o f C h urch es” earned a 7-0 v ic to r y over the Petreans. A n o th er d efea t w as borne b y us fro m St. B enedict’s Prep, 12-0. T h e ir ponderous squad w as fo rced to amass its entire stren gth and skill to attain success.

St. P e te r’s then struggled w ith F ordh am P rep a t F o rd h am F ield. O nce again w as our record tarnished. T h e score w as 12-0. F ordh am ’s m igh ty line plunging, in w hich they excelled, because o f their w eigh t, w as the principal fa cto r in their victory.

T h e ligh t line o f St. P e ter’s, how ever, did not yield w ithout first w a g in g a brave battle.

P eeved som ew hat by their recent defeats, the G rand S tre et boys resolved to term inate those evils. T h e B lu e and W h ite o f E m erson n ex t engaged the M aroon.

T h e y received a setback a t the hands o f the P rep sters, 13-0. T h is com bat w as extre m e ly excitin g, both team s show ing great offensive pow er and neither scoring until the last quarter, w hen the Prep, by superior strategy, em erged triumphant.

L in co ln H ig h n ex t fe ll prey to our “ gridders,” 23-6. T h e opposition frightened P etrean rooters in the first period by ta lly in g a touch-down. B u t St. P eter’s began an irresistible assault b e fo re w hich L in coln ’s defense crum pled com pletely. It w as an all S t. P e te r’s a ffa ir thereafter.

A startlin g surprise aw aited us in the n ext gam e. U nion H ill advanced to fam e by d e fe a tin g us 6-0. A touch-dow n in the third quarter as a result o f a freak ish fum ble proved to be our undoing. P rep strove hard to offset the advantage thus gained, but U n ion H ill clun g tenaciously to it and conquered.

T h a n k sg ivin g D a y brought so rrow to all St. P e ter’s. D ickinson avenged the d e fe a t o f the previous season b y w inning over us, 21-7. T h e H illtop boys accum ulated tw enty-one points in the first h a lf to St. P e te r’s seven. W ith such odds against them, how ever, St. P e te r’s fo u gh t va lia n tly in the second h a lf, displaying the best fo otb all tactics o f the year. D ickinson w as endangered o ften during this session, but m anaged to prevent o ur boys fro m scoring. I t w as in this gam e above all others that the g r it o f the Jesuit lads w as predominant. A n d though vanquished, the brilliant spirit, in w hich they succumbed, w ill linger long in the m em ory o f the school. It was bitter d e fe a t to w ithstand, but our boys w ere as glorious in their loss, as they could have been in victory.

Indeed, the M aro o n and W h ite o f ’23 w as considered by all scholastic rivals as an ominous portent, and w as regard ed as possessing some o ccult p ow er w hich boded nought but dire consequences to their foes. T h e ga llan t lads w ho fo u g h t so su ccessfu lly fo r A lm a M a te r w ere not o f such colossal physiques as to p araly ze opponents w ith t e r r o r ; but they w ere imbued w ith the w ill to figh t gam ely under any possible circum stances. A n d it w a s this splendid spirit, traditional here a t fa ir St. P e te r’s, united w ith am azin g a g ility, that helped the P eterites to prosper in their undertakings.

T h irte en victories and five defeats entitled our court kn igh ts to a tria l in the S ta te P rep Cham pionship Tournam ent. Seton H a ll w ith seventeen consecutive v ic ­ tories, as her record, engaged the M aroon in the initial tournam ent gam e. P rep overcam e this p o w e rfu l team b y superior p layin g and elim inated it, 24-20. A ll indi­ cations pointed to a successful ending in the tourney fo r St. P e te r’s. B u t our hopes w ere thw arted when, a t Princeton, St. B enedict’s o f N e w a rk term inated our stay in the race fo r the golden title. In a v e ry fa s t encounter the N e w a rk ite s by better team ­ w o r k outplayed the Petreans, the score being 36-22. T h e team ’s average fo r the season w as .700, a v e ry high standing considering the calibre o f the opposition faced in e ve ry game.

A m o n g the outstanding victories w e m ight m ention: the overw helm ing d efeat o f St. Benedict’s a t the home c o u r t; the clo sely contested and w ild ly e x citin g St. Joseph’s gam e w on in the second overtim e period, and o f course, our complete out­ classin g o f Seto n H a ll in the State Tournam ent.

G reat credit is due to our chubby mascot, John M ann, w h o w as a lw ays on hand and ever ready in his m inistrations to the basketball team.

®rark The revival of track activities this year at St. Peter’s was welcomed by many enthusiasts of that particular branch of sports. Considering the fact that Prep was busily occupied by a glorious basketball season, one may be readily convinced that track could not receive the full attention of the student body. But those lads who sacrificed their time to the cause of track will be remembered at St. Peter’s as the ones who have made possible the grand resumption of this elevating sport which is to happen next year.

The Maroon and W hite has participated in two indoor meets this season: one conducted by Dickinson at the Fourth Regiment Armory, on February twenty-second; the other by De W itt Clinton of New York, at the Twenty-second Regiment Armory, on March tenth. In the first of these events our Junior Relay Team by “coming in” third gained our two and only points. In the latter, our lads were unable to assemble any of the credit makers. But these circumstances could not dishearten the Peterites who, now, as our annual is about to be sent to press, are training for the outdoor season, where they are certain they can gain some fame. The main purpose of the renewal of track this year is to acquaint the boys with the sport so that the interest they have taken may next season blossom forth and spread the glory of St. Peter’s broadcast with the aid of this strenuous pastime.

When You Shave you can make it easier and have more comfort by lathering with Colgate’s Rapid-Shave Cream.

It softens the beard a t th e base, w here the razor’s work is done.

C olgate’s R ap id -S h av e C ream makes a fragrant, moist lather that needs no m ussy rubbing in with the fingers. Half an inch squeezed upon the end of your w et brush is plenty.
