1937
Published by the Senior Class
ST. JOSEPH'S COLLEGE FOR WOMEN
Brooklyn New York
Anon to Midden silence won,
In fancy they pursue
The dream-child moving through a land
Of wonders wild and new,
In friendly chat with bird or beast —
And half believe it true.
And ever as the story drained
The wells of fancy dry,
And faintly strove that w7eary one
To put the subject by,
"The rest next time — " "It is next time!"
The happy voices cry.
Thus grew the tale of Wonderland :
Thus slowly, one by one,
Its quaint events were hammered out-
And now the tale is done,
And home we steer, a merry crew,
Beneath the setting sun.
Alice ! A childish story take,
And with a gentle hand,
Lay it where Childhood's dreams are twined
In Memory's mystic band,
Like pilgrim's wither'd wreath of flowers
Pluck'd in a far-off land.
—"Alice in Wonderland."
Dedication
Among the manifold duties of a busy life, Monsignor
David Hickey found time to serve as Vice-President of St.
Joseph's College. In this capacity he proved himself a loyal
and interested friend at all times. To him, therefore, the
Class of 1937 respectfully dedicates this book, hoping that
the work he did will not soon be forgotten.
Contents
The book is divided up into several sections. There are
views of the college. The Faculty has its part. Each graduate
has her place in a section which also includes literature
contributed by members of the Senior Class. Undergraduates
are grouped according to class with representative pictures,
reports and articles. We have devoted space to the system of
Student Administration found here. And, of course, the
social activities were not neglected. Finally, there is the
Directory of Students and Alumnae, and the advertising
follows.

A tale begun in other days.
When summer suns were glowing —
A simple chime, that served to time
The rhythm of our rowing —
Whose echoes live in memory yet,
Though envious years would say 'forget.
And, though the shadow of a sigh
May tremble through the story,
For 'happy summer days' gone by,
And vanish'd summer glory —
It shall not touch, with breath of bale,
The pleasance of our fairy-tale.

Her sister sat just as she left her, leaning her head on her hand,
watching the setting sun, and thinking of little Alice and all her wonder-
ful Adventures, till she too began dreaming after a fashion, and this was
her dream :
First, she dreamed about little Alice herself — and still as she listened
or seemed to listen, the whole place around her became alive with the
strange creatures of her little sister's dream.
The long grass rustled at her feet as the White Rabbit hurried by —
the frightened Mouse splashed his way through the neighboring pool —
she could hear the rattle of the teacups as the March Hare and his friends
shared their never-ending meal, and the shrill voice of the Queen ordering
off her unfortunate guests to execution — once more the pig-baby was
sneezing on the Duchess's knee, while plates and dishes crashed around it
— once more the shriek of the Gryphon, the squeaking of the Lizard's
slate-pencil, and the choking of the suppressed guinea-pigs, filled the air,
mixed up with the distant sob of the miserable Mock Turtle.
So she sat on, with closed eyes, and half believed herself in Wonder-
land, though she knew she had but to open them again, and all would
change to dull reality.

For some minutes Alice stood without speaking, looking out in all
directions over the country — and a most curious country it was. There
were a number of tiny little brooks running straight across it from side
to side, and the ground between was divided up into squares by a number
of little green hedges, that reached from brook to brook.
"I declare, it's marked out just like a large chessboard !" Alice said at
last. "There ought to be some men moving about somewhere — and so
there are!" she added in a tone of delight, and her heart began to beat
quick with excitement as she went on. "It's a great huge game of chess
that's being played — all over the world — if this is the world at all, you
know. Oh, what fun it is! How I wish I was one of them! I wouldn't
mind being a Pawn, if only I might join — though of course I should like
to be a Queen, best."
Her companion only smiled pleasantly, and said, "That's easily
managed. When you get to the Eighth Square you'll be Queen "

She started out eagerly with the Class of '37,
but was permitted to travel what seemed so short
a distance before she was called away. To us, who
were just beginning to know her, the news of her
death came as a profound shock. We think of her
now as we near the goal toward which she had
turned her eyes.

And many deaths do they escape by this.

Valedictory
Caught in the web of fancy, our eyes filled with the dust of stars, we have looked
forward to this day. Now that web lies broken at our feet; we face a cold reality. Our
wish is about to be realized.
Would that we could always live in a world of dreams where everything turned
out just as we wished. Would that we had a magic ring to make our hopes come true.
We recognize that conditions are not so ominous for us as they were for our fellow
students who have graduated in the last few years. Still the situation is not an ideal one ;
we must face the facts.
The happy thought comes that perhaps each and every one has a magic talent in
his make-up which can bring him success. The longer we dwell on this idea, the more
we realize that this is no idle fancy. It is an actuality. God does not lavish His gifts on
one. To each He gives at least one talent which differentiates that one from every one
of his fellow-creatures. It is our task to find this talent and to make use of it. Herein
will lie the key to the art of being different, the secret to success.
Perhaps our gift lies in seeing sense where others see only nonsense; in finding that
golden opportunity where others can find only dismal failure; in seeing light where
others see only darkness; in finding the answer to a problem in which others cannot get
beyond the question. Perhaps we are not so gifted. For the majority of us, I think, our
talent is the doing of the ordinary things extraordinarily well. Perhaps our destiny leads
us to accomplish things which others would not risk trying, to finish tasks which others
shirk. If we refuse to take the risk, if we play the shirker, our golden opportunity will
pass by; we shall have missed our chance. An apt illustration of this is the old story of
Archias, King of Syracuse.
Once upon a midnight dreary, Archias, King of Syracuse, stole from his palace.
Concealing his features with a somber mantle, he made his way to the city gate. Here
the king rolled a large stone from the roadside and hastily buried it, half helow the
surface and half above, directly in the narrow roadway.
With the unfastening of the gates at dawn, began the exodus of peasants to the
fields, of merchants and travelers. Every wagon that passed jogged over the stone,
horses stumbled, men stubbed their feet. The same words were on all their lips: "Why
doesn't someone remove that stone ?'
People passed and blundered throughout the day, and the return of the workers at
sundown found the obstacle intact in their path. With surprised indignation, everyone
repeated as he passed on, "Why doesn't someone remove that stone?"
Swiftly approached the day set by the king when he would appoint the new chan-
cellor. He had sworn by Zeus to select a man of true worth. Yet he maintained he did
not know who that one would be, even at this mature time.
The festive morn for the appointment arrived, and among the holiday crowd throng-
ing the gate was the gallant Prince Mentor, youngest son of the neighboring King of
Crete. The fateful stone was causing great furor. The prince was amused and stood
off by the roadside to enjoy the sport. Over and over he heard the whining complaint,
"Why doesn't someone remove that stone?"
At last the prince laughed and stepping forward, he loosened the stone and rolled
it from the roadway. The removal of the stone disclosed a parchment bearing the
King's seal. On it were inscribed these words, "Who removes this stone shall be Chan-
cellor of Syracuse — one fit to serve his fellow men."
Frankly, would we have been among the complainers, or would we have done what
the others were too lazy to do? If we choose to play the mediocre part, our college edu-
cation has missed its mark ; we have passed our talent by. We must choose the higher
things where "the mind is filled with joy alone nor hath sadness any part therein." This
is to be the prize alone. This is to be sought for with all our might.

Walter de la Mare, Maker of Dreams
If hat can a tired heart say.
If huh tin- wise of the world have made dumb?
Save to the lonely dreams of a child,
Return again, cornel
A man looked at a cloud one day and saw in it a dream. He reached out his hand
and sought to retain it, for it was a beautiful, colorful thing. But dreams are not for
the worldly-wise, they are the heritage of youth. And so this man stood still for a
moment and then he spoke. "I shall take this dream," he said. "1 shall multiply it a
thousandfold and make a land of dreams. Then I shall call all children to me and say
to them, 'Return, children, return to the land of dreams.' "
Thus it was that Walter de la Mare, with his body on earth and his heart in a
star, became the poet of dreams and the dreamer of beauty. Quietly, lovingly, fearing
no criticism and desiring no applause, he set about his work of reviving dreams. He had
a gift for revealing the romance of innocence that accompanies only the most delicate
of minds. He, like Stevenson before him, had a child's freshness and fertility of imagina-
tion ; he, like Thompson, saw in children's eyes "something, something that replies." He
called these children to dreams and they eagerly stumbled to him. They loved his be-
witching pictures ; they delighted in his unexpected fancy ; they marvelled at his fan-
tastic stories. He took them in to the "little green orchard" and they were happy and
tranquil there. He went with them to the land of fairies and gnomes who danced in a
leaf-green light. He thrilled them with tales of once-upon-a-time, till, all else forgotten,
their hearts stood still in the hush of an age gone by.
This was Walter de la Mare, the maker of dreams. But there was another side to
this same Walter de la Mare, for he was "the type of the wise who soar but never
roam." Thus it was, that with the skill of an artist, he was able to combine the charm
of folk-lore with a realistic presentation of detail. He was beguiled by the earth and he
loved to contemplate its beauty, but he was perturbed by the vanity of men. All he
loved in beauty cried to him that we are but vain shadows and reflections of an Eternal
Beauty which is to come.
His thoughts, however, were not those of a philosopher. They were the rather de-
tached musings of a man who believed with Conrad that a writer's task is to make you
hear, feel and see, and so to give you a glimpse of Truth. And we do see, we do hear,
we do feel. We see a shimmering moon pouring silver indiscriminately over casement win-
dows and harvest mice. We see a sunken garden at eventide, we breathe its fragrance,
and we feel its peace. We see — but to catalogue all that we see is to dissect the rose and
to analyze the dewdrop. It is enough that we have sensed perfection; it is enough that
we have walked with Walter de la Mare into the land of Romance and Beauty ; it is
enough, nay, more than enough, to have heard his song, to have been able to "dream,
wake, wake, dream, in one brief bar."

The Non- Importance of Being Earnest
There are still too many people who live in strict accordance with Longfellow's
dictum that
Life is real , life is earnest.
Something inside rebels against it. That, perhaps, is why we laugh at cartoons and cari-
catures; we know the actuality they would distort, and relish seeing it shown up. We
applaud satiric drama and literature and art, unless, of course, they be too cutting; for
if the satirist lacks even a small share of kindness, he, like the prophet, seldom finds
honor in his own country. It is much easier to accept the suggestion that Europeans are
stupid and boorish to the point of comedy, than it is to accept the same judgment about
our precious American selves. Still, when it comes to pouring the spirit of an age into
concrete, formal expression, the satirist may rightfully take his place with the artist and
the historian.
He catches the age when it is nearly overripe, when things are nearly at an im-
passe, and his skill lies in his ability to reinterpret the old truth that people take them-
selves much too seriouslv. Piers Plowman among his field full of folk, Don Quixote
entangled in his windmills, Panurge with his sheep, and Androcles with his lion, are but
representatives of millions who might have been even more peculiar, simply because
they were real rather than the creation of an author's brain.
It took Shakespeare to say poetically that
All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players ;
They have their exits and their entrances:
.hid 'me man in his time plays many parts.
His act being seven ages.
Yet the poet himself never said definitely how the stage is set, whether for coined)
or tragedy. He found both and managed to reconcile successfully one witli the other.
Not everyone can do that, least of all the fabled "man in the street," who, because he
lacks perspective, is inclined to consider the whole business of living a very weighty and
serious matter. After all, it requires a certain amount of courage, not to mention intelli-
gence, to laugh at oneself, but then again, is there any particular reason why the one
individual should remain in the dark about his own comic possibilities when everyone
else is in on the. secret? Of course there are always people who prefer to be kept in the
dark, and the thicker the fog, the more serious they become, and the more serious they
become, the funnier they are.
The man we characterize as "a pompous old fool" cuts such a fine figure of fun
because he is willfully unaware of his own myopia and lack of proportion. There is a
terrible solemnness about his attitudes and conduct, not on important points, but on the
thousand petty details which in magnitude of importance have about the same relation to
reality as a flea to an elephant. Multiply this man by millions, trim off a little here, add
a little there, and the model can be made to fit anyone, from dictator to ditchdigger.

Laughter, after all, is largely a matter of seeing things in their true proportion.
About eight centuries ago there lived a man who, if he were alive today, would laugh
us to scorn. I choose this man, Francis of Assisi, because we hear so much of the "Fran-
ciscan spirit" without realizing what it implies. Francis of Assisi discovered a secret,
which, in itself, was not too surprising since it had been lying around ever since the
world began. But, all things considered, Francis did a fairly good job of making it
known. He could laugh at poverty and insult because he had found out that only one
thing mattered — the love of God ; and that the only things worth being serious about
were those which bear some relation to our final salvation — or damnation. They weigh
the same here. In the light of that discovery, too great a seriousness about other things
becomes a fit subject for jest.
Francis could afford to laugh at it even as the martyrs laughed amid chains and
torture. There is exquisite humor in the dying words of a St. Lawrence or a St. Igna-
tius. The ironic twist in the persecutions was that the joke was on the pagan persecutors
and they didn't know it. For the Romans, the spectacle of Christians being thrown to
the lions was a richly humorous situation. It must have been a little maddening to find
that they were being laughed at instead. When it comes to such a contest, the saint has
an edge on everyone else, for he alone can afford to be entirely unafraid of the world and
its peculiar inhabitants. He can remember that the scribes and Pharisees of the Gospels
were humbled to the dust because they took themselves too seriously and Christ too
lightly.
The case of their contemporary, Lazarus, is provocative. Just what Lazarus experi-
enced during those four days of entombment has always been a subject for conjecture.
One is inclined to sympathize with the thesis of dramatist Eugene O'Neill, who felt
that whatever Lazarus saw or heard during those days made him not sad, but happy,
so deliriously happy that he laughed a laughter beautiful and compelling, laughed aloud
until he died a martyr, and, presumably, laughs in heaven with the sheer joy of
knowledge and love.
But the knowledge and love which brought him such joy rose from faith and a
sense of wonder, and not from reason at all. Only the truly childlike enter the Kingdom
of Heaven, and only the childlike can appreciate the exquisite, flower-like mood of a
fairy tale. The blase adult would take it seriously, at peril of his sanity, or else treat it
as an absurdity, which is an unforgivable crime. The child knows the story is not real,
but he has the happy faculty of being able to appreciate it as if it were true, so the
enchanted world of fairies and golden-haired princesses, of witches and heroic princes,
of talking beasts and fire-breathing dragons remains hallowed ground.
Recently we were treated to the spectacle of a psychologist throwing up his hands
in holy horror at the possible fate of children who are permitted to read Alice in Won-
derland. He finds that it is cruel and wholly impossible, therefore unhealthy. Another
Scrooge in our midst! Did the unhappy man ever read Peter Pan, I wonder, and what
does he say about that? Let us hope there are not too many like him, but rather seek
for the world of St. Francis, of Lazarus, of children and of those other men who see
and laugh at the foibles of a world which takes itself too seriously.

A Challenge
The modern man is convinced that only through education can we have progress.
To achieve this progress, we in the United States have developed a superior standard of
learning. The early colonial academies and private Latin schools are a far cry from our
present system of public education, which ranks with the best in the world.
But while looking with pride upon our own advancement, let us pause to consider
the attitude of other countries on this question. Our nearest neighbor to the south is
Mexico. Long before this great country of ours was thoroughly known and colonized,
our friends below the Rio Grande had a method of education of which they could be
justly proud.
The two most outstanding names amonir the early educators in Mexico are Peter
of Ghent, a lay Franciscan brother, and Bishop Zumarraga. Zumarraga, the first Arch-
bishop of Mexico, founded hospitals and established schools for native children. During
this time a pastoral clergy was being developed. It was their duty to care for souls in
settled parishes. Every town had a school beside the church, where the children were
taught to read and write.
The first institution for higher education of the Indian was Holy Cross College in
Tlaltelolco. The college turned out scholars as fine as any Spanish college. Santa Cruz
College which opened its doors in January 1534, thirteen years after Cortes conquered
Mexico City, was founded by Bishop Zumarraga. In 1553, there were three principal
colleges: Santa Cruz, San Juan de Letran and one for exclusive Spaniards and Creoles.
The Augustinians founded the College of San Pablo, and the Jesuits, the College of San
Ildefonso in 1575.
The University of Mexico came into being in June 1553, just thirty-two years
after the conquest. Our own college, Harvard, was not opened until nearly a century
later. Mexico had so many schools and colleges before the confiscation as to justify the
statement by Francis Kelly that "up to that day there never had been a country on the
face of the earth that, in so short a time, had done so much in an educational way. When
the circumstances of time and conditions surrounding the effort and the obstacles to
be overcome are considered, history presents no finer record of educational achievement
and success."
Today, Mexico is considered illiterate. Why? What has become of these educa-
tional institutions? The principal plank of the reform of 1857 was confiscation of
ecclesiastical property, which consisted chiefly of schools, asylums, hospitals. As the
schools were closed, barracks were opened. The revolution of 1917 completed the work.
Now, in many stat?. of the Mexican Republic, a clergyman is forbidden to officiate.
The College of Santa Cruz was converted successively into a barracks, a political
prison, a military headquarter, and, at last, a military prison. The church was occupied
as a customhouse. The Colleges of San Pedro and San Pablo and the Indian College of
San Gregorio were transformed into Houses of Correction. The Jesuit college, San
Ildefonso, was confiscated by the government.
Once there were free schools in every parish, but this is no longer true. In spite
of the few show schcols in the federal district, three million children are without
educational opportunity in Mexico.
The conditions in Mexico are a challenge to justice and the moral rights of all men.
The beauty that was has given way to the desolation and destruction that is.

Jeeves and the Spot of Art
When Bertie Wooster brought home a vase from an auction and parked it on his
mantelpiece, Jeeves said little but his attitude said a lot. He eyed in a marked manner;
he viewed with concern. So did my family when I took up the study of art in a spirit
of serious research. They did not object vocally — much good that would have done
them — but all three aunts and Sandy gave me the raised eyebrow and the skeptical look.
They seemed to be thinking that the poet's outlook on life was so much mashed potatoes;
a little art is desirable; it is a lot of it that is dangerous — and demoralizing.
It wasn't that I littered the house with chips of paper, because I didn't. The carnage
was confined to my own room, and irked no one but Sandy, who had to sulk in his own
chair because my couch (my error! his couch) was littered with Botticellis. No, it
w*asn't that. It was only my room that became temporarily uninhabitable, and my waste-
basket that was stuffed with superfluous great masters.
What they objected to was that my roving and acquisitive spirit (inherited no doubt
from some Duffy who sailed with Hawkins and Drake) reached out claw-like hands
toward their most cherished possessions. I wanted to cut the gorgeous colored plate of
the Halls of Karnak from Volume Something of the Book of Knoxvledge, which no one
ever looks at, anyway, and when forbidden to do so, my Zeal for the Beautiful made me
lug the big elephant to school. I think it was then that looks of apprehension began to
fly thick as autumn leaves in Vallambrosa, for the next object of my attentions was
the National Encyclopedia, the pride of all our hearts. The Catholic Encyclopedia was
safe, not from piety, but because it had no colored plates. But the National! Um-m!
The "Madonna delle Sedie," a lovely, big, round picture with a wide margin of shiny
white paper all around it, was the first aeuvre to rouse the piratical soul of the Spanish
Main Duffys. Then there was Fra Angelico's "Annunciation," pale yet vivid, a whole
page of it, and I didn't have a single Angelico to my portfolio. And Turner's "Fighting
Temeraire" I could have eaten. Fll confess right here, and 1 hope my family never gets to
read this, that I had not the shadow of an excuse for claiming this Turner. We didn't
have Turner anywhere in either of the art courses, and what made me try to chisel it was
covetousness neither pure nor simple.
While we're on this subject of confessions, I will also remark that it was not I who
took another picture of the "Madonna of the Chair" from its carved wooden frame.
At that, its owner didn't accuse me of swiping it; she only thought some one else might
have done it for me. Not that she had any right to complain. If the semester had lasted
two weeks longer, I swear she would have given me the "Annunciation." My family
has always been anxious for my scholastic reputation. By cooing that other people had
some nice pictures, but my portfolio was much admired, I got plenty of amateur assistance.
Why is it that the least — er — academic newspapers have the best art ? The Times
never prints anything but black and white, or sepia, at the most, while the Daily Shriek
has lovely colored reproductions of everybody back to Cimabue. During my spasmodic
attendance at Journalism — some people never understood how I dared cut so lavishly —
I took full advantage of what the Times had to offer. The Shriek was harder to en-
compass. Fortunately, I have a friend who has a brother who follows the adventures of
seventy-four
s a i n t j o s e p h' s college
Tarzan and other heroes of the comic strips. She cut out the pictures and >aved them
for me, and every week I'd go and have tea seasoned with aesthetic discussions. She also
gave me four William Blakes, showing Job in the throes of harrowing visions and
nightmares, which, although called for in neither art course, I treasured for their
inhuman interest.
I don't know what possessed Mr. Mellon to give his art collection to the nation
just at that time (maybe Jeeves arranged it!) but it was peculiarly fortunate for me,
for I had no Peruginos except a portrait or two, and Raphaels are always useful.
Another treasure-trove, and a peculiarly gorgeous one, was a certain travel magazine
which arrives at our door at uncertain intervals. Somebody, Mussolini maybe, or
perhaps Jeeves, sends it to my aunt. Every issue has two beautiful colored plates and
any number of lesser fry. The pictures from this publication aroused passionate inter-
est among my classmates ; I explained several times, but evidently none of their aunts
know Mussolini — or Jeeves.
It was fortunate, though, that the term ended when it did. Believe it or not, the
publishers of that travel sheet had the audacity to ask us to pay for it henceforth. Of
course, we declined. If there had been another month of art, equally of course, we
would have paid.
(Author's note: But Mussolini (or Jeeves) must have gotten after them, for we
received another copy a few weeks ago, with a Fra Angelico in it, and a detail from
Masaccio's "Tribute Money.")
There's a beautiful moral lesson to be drawn from the way one fountain of Higher
Life enriches another. The pursuit of the graphic arts has enlivened the pursuit of
secondhand books no end. I had a few books on art already — a small one on the
Ministry of Art, with a few black and white illustrations; a tiny volume on Velasquez,
with all his best work in black and white, acquired for six cents 'way up beyond the
Brooklyn Museum; a book full of Burne-Jones pictures that I cribbed, by permission,
from one of my aunts (someone had cut out the "Bath of Venus," but I liked it just
the same). When I went in seriously for collecting reproductions of the great masters,
I also began to keep my eyes open for books about them, and some treasures came my
way. Which brings us to the case of the Missing Holman Hunt.
In my favorite bookshop — the one that gave me the Culprit Fay, Cranford, and
Byron, and some other tome, all for two bits — I came across a thinnish book containing
a dissertation on the life and works of one Holman Hunt, a painter. It was adorned with
no less than eight illustrations in glorious colors. Publishers are so stingy in this direction
that you perceive right away this was a rare gem. It follows that it was of great price —
in brief, twenty-five cents. Now there may be a college girl who has twenty-five cents
to spare on Friday, but I have never met her, and I certainly don't keep her under my
hat. I told my troubles to the proprietor, and he wrapped it up and wrote my name on
it, and parked it in his desk.
Monday lunch hour, which was two hours long, I redeemed my treasure, and
then betook myself downtown to see if there were any more treasures lying around.
There were not, so I went back to school, to discover there that Holman Hunt and I
had parted company, I knew not where or how. He was gone as completely as a dream
seventy-five
footprints 1937
that you can't remember. Even Jeeves's philosophy could not comfort me. I hunted
through every classroom in the school, and then hunted other places. Then I tackled the
Lost and Found in the department store I had visited. Not a trace.
Believe it or not, though, I got it back the next day, and it had been left in the
department store. And if you want to know why the Lost and Found turned me down,
it was because most of the salespeople downtown are college graduates and have
taken applied psychology. The staff in the book department, rinding a book with my
name on the wrapping, put their heads together and said, "This wench has been haunting
this department for months. She's sure to come back." So, instead of sending it down
to the Place Where Lost Things Turn Up, they kept it up on the third floor with the
rest of the books. They were right and I went back.
A gorgeous volume full of colored and otherwise plates was another piece of luck. It
had lost its paper jacket, and was therefore marked down within my reach. I wanted
the jacket, too, because it had a picture of Rubens' "Venus and Adonis" on it which
would have glorified a page of the portfolio, but if the jacket had been on it, I couldn't
have bought it at all. Still, with its handsome red binding, it is very impressive — so
much so that one of the adjustable shelves had to be adjusted to a new high.
(Author's Note: Readers of a former article, which bewailed the difficulty of find-
ing headroom for the larger volumes, may wonder why I made so much fuss when all
I had to do was pull out a few pegs and put them in again. The answer is that at that
time my room was not so equipped. In fact, it wasn't the same room. In the interim we
have moved. Now, instead of two shelves and three bookcases, I have five bookcases —
which does not simplify matters at all.)
It was a great relief to my family when that portfolio (I never sank to calling it a
scrapbook) was handed in. I have a few goodish books of my own, and was beginning
to eye them ghoulishly. In spite of the fact that these tomes are my own property, certain
people had the nerve to tell me that I shouldn't cut the pictures out. Oh well, all things
come to an end! But one of these days I'm going to buy me another tube of "paper
cement," and then — watch out !

Sadness in Sweet Sound
The masters among the composers have sometimes grasped the most fundamental
aspects of life and living, and have embodied them in their music. Although we who are
amateurs even in appreciation may not be able to comprehend their message, we are
nevertheless aware of some element which is stirring, universal, and yet so intimate that it
penetrates our minds far more deeply than any written or spoken word. Music is like
philosophy in one sense, that it provides an inexhaustible subject for study; but unlike it
in that it can be enjoyed without any extensive knowledge. The old saw about the cat
looking at the king applies here; fortunately, we can listen to Bach, Beethoven, Wagner
and Tschaikowsky without being dilettantes.
There must be, however, a more real pleasure for the initiated than appears to the
neophyte. I have some friends — a middle-aged couple, who, I believe, would not resent
my mention of them here — who live actively and consciously in a search for beauty,
and seek it chiefly in music. They entertain us when we visit them by playing on their
victrola the best of the symphonies in their fine library. And if anyone were inconsiderate
enough to stop the instrument in the very heart of the "Brandenberg Concerto," both
of them would hum it to its conclusion. Of course, four hours of mostly Bach, with
some Mozart to lighten the burden (for they are kindly people) is very tiring; and
yet I envy them the sincere love they have for the most enduring music that has ever
been composed.
Without knowing much about it, I have become a noisy and belligerent Wagner
enthusiast. It may be true that his music-dramas are a hybrid form of art: labored in
construction, and purely emotional in appeal, but they make French and Italian operas
seem trivial and colorless. Die Walkure, and especially its last act, is inimitable in its
sustained power. The exciting "Ride of the Valkyrs," the wrath of Wotan, and the
haunting, flickering charm of the "Fire Music" with the Siegfried theme flung boldly
across it — the whole is an unforgettable pictorial composition. And it is more than that,
for Wagner throughout the Ring portrays that basic struggle between idealism and
materialism which so completely absorbed the thought of his century. Aside from this,
he has given us the most glorious love music we possess in the "Liebesnacht" of Tristan
und Isolde , and the purest of aspirations in his Tannhauser.
Of Bach I hardly dare to speak. Not that I have not listened and tried to under-
stand ; but he is on a pinnacle that is difficult to scale. There are only a few of his
works that are within my comprehension. First among these for sheer impressiveness is
the "Passacaglia," the composer's bitter protest against social injustice. The minor
chords of this splendidly integrated composition convey the strongest sorrow and dis-
illusionment. Although, to my undying shame, I know nothing about fugues, themes,
and variations, I can still enjoy the suites, in the third of which is the lovely melody
familiar to us as the "Air for G String."
After all, we do not live on a titanic scale. These things are really too large for over-
frequent enjoyment. We should use them, rather, for touchstones, and thus maintain a
sense of perspective. The part that music plays in everyday life is far different. It is
simple, amusing and recreational, and provision has been made for this truth even among
/ o otpr i n ts 19 3 7
the classics. The wise composers have given us melodies which are not the less great, and
all the more dearly beloved, because we can produce them ourselves, albeit in a mangled
form. It is from the Northerners with their capacity for gentle melancholy that our
(jest songs come. Why does sadness move men so much more deeply than joy? 1 am think-
ing of the tenderness of Grieg's "Ich Liebe Dich," the lyric quality of Bohm's "Still As
the Night," and the haunting, slow sweep of the "Valse Triste." The source of Gounod's
"Ave Maria" is in Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavichord," to which the French com-
poser wrote the theme that his predecessor had so skillfully implied. From Beethoven
there is the "Moonlight Sonata" and the wistful "Fur Elise," and from Schubert his
many lovely songs. I think that Grieg seldom receives the acclaim he deserves for his
two best suites — the Peer Gynt and the Lyric. In the latter there is an exquisite nocturne
which should be played more often.
In this hopelessly sketchy jumble of opinion and catalogue let us look southward
to those countries which we usually consider the true province of song. As we hurry
through Vienna we swing into waltz time; our heads sway rather fatuously from side
to side, and we "trip it on the light fantastic toe." For this is the kingdom of the
Strausses, whose blithe music brings a sparkle to the eye of the veriest purist who ever
debated on counterpoint. And here is Italy, land of joyous opera that lilts its way care-
lessly through comedy and tragedy alike. Notice how geography effects a change of
mood. What the southerners lack of strength and sublimity, they compensate in pure
joy of living and human appeal. We hum the Riijoletto quartet without the slightest
shade of sadness; the "Miserere" speaks of undying love rather than of death. The
mention of Italy brings to mind more readily "O Sole Mio" and "La Donna e Mobile"
than the pathos of Puccini. And I have heard a toccata of Galuppi's that is very
danceable.
And now north again to France — to the Paris that heaped insult on Carmen,
when Bizet presented it, because it was too "Wagnerian." I suppose that Gounod might
be considered representative of the composers of his day, although occasionally he ap-
proaches the spirit of the Germans. But he, too, felt the influence of the Italian school,
and we find it in the dainty waltzes and prevalently gay tone of Faust. . . . Massenet,
Hahvy, Chopin, Chaminade, Debussy. . . . names known to everyone, melodies that
float in shreds about our memories ! When a man has genius, does he know that for
generations people will be spellbound by his magic, and is he patient and glad?
The Russians, the Poles, the English, the Americans! There is no room for them
all, and the gifts they bring. And I have forgotten sacred music, the marches, the folk
songs. Even at this I have learned nothing, and I have said nothing. I could not even
hint to you what music is or what it means. It is only one more thing to wonder at in
man: "that out of three sounds, he frame, not a fourth sound, but a star."

Mrs. Harris
What did .Mrs. Harris look like? Where did she live? What was her occupation?
Was she a widow? Or was there a Mr. Harris, a shadowy consort? Or is it really true
that Sairey Gamp yielded to a creative impulse and made her up out of whole cloth, as
Dickens implies?
It has always been a matter of great wonder and amazement to me that Dickens,
who loved so much to picture his characters down to the last wrinkle in a black bomba-
zine skirt, could have left Mrs. Harris only a wraithlike invention of Sairey's brandy-
tinctured imagination. It must have cost him a pang. He heightened the effectiveness of
his caricature of gentle Nurse Gamp, who laid out her patients before they were dead in
order to see what they would look like after they had succumbed to her tender ministra-
tions, when he gave her a purely fictional friend through whose mouth she might sound
her own praises but he must have regretted the lost opportunity to add one more portrait
to his gallery of oddities.
What could he have done with Mrs. Harris? He could have made her a tall,
spare woman with a black dress too tight for her and a husband too small for her.
She might have had a perpetual red tip to her nose, and, to explain the redness, a con-
venient pocket in her skirt continually sagging under the weight of a bottle of the
"tonic" which all of Mrs. Gamp's friends seemed to need. She might have carried an
umbrella, rolled up tightly on its stick, as Mrs. Gamp's was left bulging and flapping.
However, we cannot say arbitrarily that Mrs. Harris would have been thin. We are
willing to concede that she might have been as ample as Mrs. Gamp herself. But, we
state positively, she would have had a little man with pale, prominent, watery blue eyes
and a weedy moustache, for a husband. Mr. Harris would have worn a frock coat,
two sizes too large for him, and a high glazed collar, slightly soiled, also too large for
him, above which his Adam's apple would bob with fright every time Mrs. Harris made
a sudden move in his direction. Mr. Harris would have been a postman or a green-
grocer's clerk, and Mrs. Harris would have been a nurse who had given up that pro-
fession to marry him, a fact which she would hurl at him, together with a piece of
crockery, when he would weakly protest about the lateness or absence of his dinner. He
would wonder feebly, not why he had persuaded her to give up nursing, but why he
had persuaded her to marry him. The little man would never realize that he had not
done any persuading at all ; Mrs. Harris had simply decided to marry him out of hand,
and done so.
But there can never be a Mrs. Harris. Mrs. Harris was killed by Betsy Prig when
Bets\ hurled the remark, "I don't believe there's no sich a person," into Sairey's as-
tounded face. The foul blow fell. Mrs. Harris dissolved in an atmosphere compounded
of brandy, liniment and the odor of rusty black material. I heartily echo Mrs Gamp's
sentiment, "But the words she spoke of Mrs. Harris, lambs could not forgive. No,
Betsy! nor worms forget !"

With the coming of September nearly all the Sophomores looked forward very
eagerly to becoming upperclassmen at last. The year that means so much to everyone
was finally attained. The Junior year witnessed the advent of many social events and the
role of both host and guest of honor falls to the Junior class as a whole.
Our memories of the aid and assistance we were given by our sister class spurred,
in turn, our efforts to help our own Freshmen sisters. Our only hope is that we have
made them feel very much at home and very welcome.
Individually, the Junior class played a very large part in social events. Celeste

Hughes and Fran Coffey were excellent in the Dramatic Cluh production of Ladies of
the Jury. The spring production, The Swan, finds Pat Muller in the leading role, as
Dr. Agi. If the rehearsals are any indication of what the finished article will be, we're
sure it will be a fine performance.
Of course, our biggest event of the year was Junior Week, which was splendidly
handled by Peggy Magee and her committee. We started the week by attending Mass
in a body on Monday morning; that evening we had dinner at the American Women's
Club. The Seniors, on Tuesday night, took us to see the colorful musical, White Horse
Inn. We were the guests of our sister class in the alumnae on Thursday night when
we saw the delightful fantasy, High Tor. We had a wonderful time at both per-
formances and I'm sure we'll never forget them. We closed our week with the much
anticipated Junior Prom. The chairmanship was in the very able hands of Betty Nicolaus
and her committee. They made the evening a very enjoyable one.
We are going to miss all the attention which has been showered upon us this year.
It seems almost impossible to believe that in a short while we will be Seniors. However,
this year has been one so full of lovely memories that we will always remember it and
remember also those who helped us to make it so successful.

Wordsworth 's Concepts of Nat ure
Nature may almost he called the he-all and end-all of Wordsworth's life and
poetry. It was one of the most dominant forces in the formation of his character and in
the shaping of his poetic gift. He was born in the Lake Country and in this section,
noted for its loveliness, he grew up. Nature formed the setting for his boyhood sports.
By day, and even by night, he ranged through the woods around his home, hunting,
scaling cliffs to carry off birds' nests, skating under the stars in winter, swimming and
boating in summer — all in a close though unheeding companionship with nature. His
spirit was not hampered by the confinement of city life or by man-made boundaries.
Rather, it was free to expand to the large measure of the natural world about him, to
absorb beauty, and to learn at firsthand the laws of nature. He writes in his auto-
biographical poem, "The Prelude" —
Fair seed-time had my soul, and I greiv up
Fostered alike by beauty and by fear.
Fear, it will be noticed, had its place. For even then nature was something more to the
child than a background for his play, a mere physical thing; even then he vaguely sensed
a spiritual presence behind the familiar forms around him, a presence that was a shaping
power, a guide; that inarticulately impressed on him what was right and what wrong.
Then, as the boy grew older and his mind developed, the instinctive, animal-like
companionship with nature was left behind, and he approached the beauties around him
with conscious appreciation. Daily the common range of visible things grew dearer to
him. The sun, shedding its light over the morning hills or setting behind the mountains,
the moon "hung midway between the hills," still water beneath a starry sky — all im-
pressed their loveliness upon him. And nature then was "all in all" to him. His ap-
preciation was of the senses; it was a thing of "aching joys" and "dizzy raptures," an
instinct
That had no need of a remoter charm
By thought supplied . . .
But this purely sensual admiration, too, gave way with maturity, and in its place
there came a quieter love, a reflective emotion, in which the mind had its part. His con-
tact with nature gave him food for thought as well as for feeling. He looked beyond
form and color, not now satisfied by these alone; he had lost that first wild ecstasy, but
not regretfully, for "other gifts" had come to take its place, "abundant recompense,"
and he learned
To look on nature, not as in the hour
Of thoughtless youth; but hearing oftentimes
The still, sad music of humanity,
Nor harsh, nor grating, though of ample power
To chasten and subdue.
Nor was this his only compensation. He not only had the chastening power of
thought, but also its uplifting power. And another, purer rapture came to replace what
was lost. Spiritual and sensual joined forces and led him to an intuitive knowledge of
eighty-six
s aint jo s e p h' s college
A presence that disturbs me with the joy
Of elevated thoughts: a sense sublime
Of something far more deeply interfused,
Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns.
And the round ocean and the living air,
A motion and a spirit, that impels
All thinking things, all objects of nil thought,
And rolls through all things.
As a moral guide, too, nature played an important role in Wordsworth's life.
In nature and the "language of the sense" he found
. . . the nurse
The guide, the guardian of my heart and soul
Of all my moral being.
He took from these rather than from dogma his concept of right and wrong. Nature
was to him a kind of second conscience, and he firmly helieved that
One impulse from a vernal wood
May teach you more of man,
Of moral evil and of good
Than all the sages can.
He found in nature a source of that "emotion recollected in tranquillity," which
is the inspiration of so much of his poetry. The pleasure he drew from the mere physical
perception of heautiful things was not transient ; it was not just a momentary appre-
hension of heauty, gone when the object that gave him pleasure no longer appeared
to his senses. On the contrary, it was a lasting joy to be called up before the mind at will.
He drank in the beauty of the moment
. . . not only with the sense
Of present pleasure, but with pleasing thoughts
That in this moment there is life and food
For future years.
But Wordsworth is at his best when the beauties of nature move him to a tran-
scendental ecstasy. Though he never reaches the sublime transports of Shelley, or even
the unstudied rapture of Coleridge, in such moments he shakes off the labored, earthy,
almost plodding spirit that makes such things as "To A Skylark" seem forced and
uninspired, and rises to the heights of poetic expression. In the lines "Composed On An
Evening Of Extraordinary Splendor" his inspiration is a natural scene, but he tran-
scends the physical, and it is the spirit that breathes through the evening — the spirit
that animates Nature to which he writes:
. . . From thee if I would swerve
Oh, let thy grace remind me of the light
Full early lost and fruitlessly deplored;
If hich at this moment on my waking sight
Appears to shine, by miracle restored;
My soul, though yet confined to earth
Rejoices in a second birth!

Old Grad
Matthew Fellowes peered at himself above the crack in the mirror and carefully
brushed his hair to hide a thin spot at the crown. He fingered his dull tie regretfully.
He would have preferred the blue one — his university color — but it would have drawn
too much attention to the gray suit that, however carefully pressed, still showed worn
and fraying edges. A sigh of resignation escaped him as he carefully replaced the blue
tie and stepped back to survey himself as fully as the small mirror would allow. The
years had been kind to Matthew if fortune had not — except for those slightly stooped
shoulders and a general air of timidity he was not unlike the Matthew of twenty years
ago. His figure was still slim, his mousy hair showed no signs of gray, and the short-
sighted light blue eyes retained the same boyish good humor that had attracted people
to him in his undergraduate days. But Matthew was vaguely unsatisfied. The stamp of
success was lacking in his appearance and it had caused him numberless hours of vacil-
lation before he finally persuaded himself to undertake the present trip. The twentieth
reunion of the class of '17 was a great occasion, worthy to be graced by men of name
and position. Matthew, after twenty years, still commanded both the title and salary
of assistant bookkeeper. He had been honor man in 17, hut in an age of aggressive busi-
ness methods Matthew's gentler tactics were unequal to the struggle, and he had
quietly acquiesced. Up to now he had not minded his shahbiness, but now it became a
stigma that he felt sure his classmates could not overlook or forgive. What right had
an honor man to be content with a mean position and a niggardly income? Thus he had
reasoned before, and now as he turned and picked up his hat he was filled with the
same forebodings of failure. He picked up his bag and descended the dark stairs of the
most respectable boarding house where he lodged. Mrs. Heuber, the landlady, emerged
from the parlor just as he reached the landing. Matthew wanted to turn back, but she
had seen him so he was forced to meet her.
Mrs. Heuber leaned on her broom and nodded her dust-capped head at him in the
friendly inquisitive way of her kind. "Ah, so you're off," she said. "You've lovely
weather for your trip. Now do have a nice time, won't you?" She seemed fearful that
Mr. Fellowes, who was "such a gentleman," might not know how to have a good time.
"Yes — oh, thank you, I shall, Mrs. Heuber," Matthew replied mechanically. He
looked at her suspiciously for a moment and then hurried away. Could she possibly have
suspected his destination? He had done his best to deceive her and save his pride. Mrs.
Heuber could never have identified a Phi Beta Kappa and a middle-aged clerk in the
person of Mr. Matthew Fellowes. Matthew knew her good opinion of him, and it
pleased him to keep it.
It was nearly ten o'clock when he descended from the day coach to the small
wooden station platform. He was grateful for the darkness that hid his obvious nervous-
ness from a crowd of undergraduates who had gathered at the station to get a look at
these "old grads." Matthew hurried up Orchard Street to his old frat house. When he
reached the porch he stopped for a minute to smooth his tie and square his stooping
shoulders. While he hesitated, the strains of a sentimental college song floated out to
him. He smiled a bit uncertainly and pushed in the door. The song burst loudly on his
eighty-eight

ears and clouds of acrid smoke rushed to the open door. Matthew stood shyly in the
doorway surveying a room that was crowded with middle-aged men, all singing
lustily.
By chance a man across the room happened to look up, and he grinned in recogni-
tion. "Hey there, Pop Fellowes," he called as he crossed the room and extended his
hand. "Say, it's good to see you after all these years." He looked around him, "Hey,
Tom, Jim, look who's here. You rememher Pop Fellowes." He dragged him over to a
crowd of men grouped around a hattered old piano.
The piano player turned around to greet Matthew. "Hi there, Pop. Say — you
haven't changed a bit — same old Pop." And thus the conventional and time-honored
greetings ran on. and under their influence Pop blossomed. His smile expanded; he
was among old friends. When the songs were exhausted and the unfailing flow of rem-
iniscences had begun, Matthew sat back, flushed and happy with the success of his
entrance.
Suddenly, at the end of a particularly tall story, someone near him said, "Say,
Pop, tell us about the time you stole the Bible from the chapel." A wave of laughter
greeted the suggestion. They had all heard the story before, but it was still a good one.
"Sure, come on, Pop," Tom egged him on. An audience of sympathetic listeners
encouraged him to start, and soon his tongue was loosened and began to pick up its old
art of storytelling. In his day Pop had been no mean raconteur, and the appreciative
chuckles that rewarded his sallies told him that he had not forgotten his old magic.
Two days later Matthew swung off the train and started down the street toward
Mrs. Heuber's. There was a new briskness in his stride, a new assurance in the way
he held his head. At the corner he stopped to buy a bunch of lilacs from an old man.
He smiled to himself. It was a long time since he had brought flowers to a woman.
He wondered what Mrs. Heuber would say when he gave them to her.
It was an astonished Mrs. Heuber who looked from a bunch of lilacs in her hand
to Matthew's retreating figure as he climbed the stairs. Alone in his room he whistled
tunelessly as he unpacked his bag. When all his things were disposed of he took from
the bottom of the bag a neatly folded blue pennant, and with the air of one who has a
definite plan to execute he pinned it in a conspicuous place over his desk. With the same
determination he rummaged in the back of his closet and brought forth a smoking
jacket that had seen better days. He smiled a bit wryly as he slipped it on and stood in
front of the mirror tying the blue tie that had been discarded a few days ago. Matthew
stood for a moment surveying the effect. Evidently he was satisfied, for he sank down
in his chair and lit his pipe with the air of a man at peace with himself and the world.
He sat quietly reviewing the events of the past few days until his pipe burned down
and then he knocked it out and prepared to go to bed. Automatically, he went to his
desk to turn the leaf of his calendar. Suddenly a thought seemed to amuse him, for he
laughed softly as he picked up a pencil and wrote across the old page: "If this be
treason . . ."

He cries, he shouts raucously at each

A Word for Popular Music
In high school, whenever we were "stuck" tor an oral English topic or an editorial
for the school paper, someone always dusted off that old favorite, Is Jazz Music?
Amid a volley of overworked adjectives and exclamation points, we decided once and
for all that jazz most certainly was not music. Having settled the issue to the great
edification of our teacher, we thereupon went home and listened to Cab Calloway
while our homework remained undone.
But the years have brought wisdom — or possibly honesty. For now I freely admit
that I think jazz is munc. Perhaps I am taking an unfair advantage of my high-school
friends, because I suppose I do not really mean jazz. I mean popular music as we
understand the term when we refer to the ordinary radio program. This does not include
at the one extreme the current "swing" craze nor at the other extreme those composi-
tions which have already become classics in our own day — Stravinsky's Firebird Suite
or DebussCs Afternoon of a Faun, for example. These latter, written along a more
serious and classical motif, demand a technical knowledge which I do not possess. In
between there two extreme:., however, there is a great deal which we dismiss as popular,
but which is really artistic in a certain sense.
Everybody's favorite, of course, is Cole Porter. For audacious rhyme schemes,
Mr. Porter is, in his own language, "the top." One of the best examples of his use of
intricate rhyming (very much like Ogden Nash's crazy verse) is in that frothy con-
coction, "You're the Top." If you don't think it's difficult to match things like Mona
Lisa and the tower of Pisa, and to cover a range of subjects wide enough to include a
Shakespeare sonnet and a Mickey Mouse, then you have never tried to write a parody.
I did, and the best I could muster up was "a tale by Runyon" and a "Bermuda onion."
The imitations, need I add, never even approach the original. "I Get a Kick Out of
You" is another of Porter's grand light numbers. The rhythm in it is a continual sur-
prise; the lines always turn out a little longer than you expected — once again like Ogden
Nash. It's like hearing a new tune every time.
But his loveliest number thus far is "Night and Day." Somehow, in some quite in-
definable way, Cole Porter has managed to permeate the whole song with that very
"haunting" note. The "beat beat beat of the tom-tom" becomes an actuality. For sheer
creation of atmosphere, "Night and Day" is unrivalled.
There are many who would not include George Gershwin among the composers of
"popular" music. It is true, of course, that some of his best work lifts him out of the
popular group to the more definitely classical, things like his American in Paris. How-
ever, his range is so wide that he may be admitted into practically any musical group.
Some of his work while truly artistic, as for example his "Rhapsody in Blue," is as
well known to the radio public as any swing song. The score from Pori/y and Bess
achieved a definite popularity last summer and one was likely to hear "I Got Plenty of
Nuthin' " and "Summertime" at a mere twist of the dial. It seems to me that this
score from Porgy and Bess is one of the finest interpretations of the negro life in
America that we have, surpassing even Stephen Foster's interpretation. Gershwin has
managed to include the whole negro spirit — the carefree acceptance of life, the pre-
occupation with simple things, the free and easy philosophy of Catfish Row. At the
footprints 1937
same time he has succeeded in omitting the sentimentality that is intrinsic in Foster's
work.
Last fummer I attended an all-Gershwin concert at the Lewisohn Stadium. Mr.
Gershwin himself played the "Rhapsody in Blue." It was remarkable to watch the
audience: everyone was intensely conscious of the rhythm, swaying ever so slightly and
humming inaudibly. The whole mood of the music transferred itself to the audience.
While Mr. Gershwin was playing it began to rain, but no one stirred. Many persons
had brought umbrellas but none were opened. After he had finished the crowd stood
in the rain for several minutes, applauding in pure appreciation. I should like to have
been George Gershwin on that night.
There are isolated songs, too, with which we have become familiar, that deserve to
be classified as music. There is a medley which, while already well known, gained added
fame because of Glen Gray's adaptation. The medley includes "Sophisticated Lady,''
"Stardust" and "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes." I don't particularly care for "Sophisticated
Lady," but that may be a family prejudice — my cousin, a saxophone player in the
making, uses it as his theme song. Too much of anything is still too much. But the other
two are lovely. I always think of them in connection with diaphanous evening gowns,
long curly eyelashes, thin wisps of cigarette smoke, the Persian Room, a Russian
countess. . . . Yet they are none the less enchanting for their artificial setting.
Among the musical shows that have offered very fine scores as their contribution
to our musical library we have New Moon, Rio Rita, Hit the Deck, No. No, Nanette.'
and, of course, the incomparable Show Boat. The "Ol' Man River" from Shoiv Boat
is another line interpretation of American negro life. What Gershwin has done for
Catfish Row, Kern has done for life along the Mississippi. Words and music combine
to suggest the philosophy that is part and parcel of American river life. In much the
same manner, Ferde Grofe's Grand Canyon Suite suggests that vastness and freedom
that we associate with the West. It is as exhilarating as reading a chapter from Hamlin
Garland or Willa Cather. As you listen to the first part of the suite, "On the Trail,"
vou can almost hear hoofbeats and you fancy yourself following a winding trail. Even
the strident voice of the radio announcer calling for a popular cigarette cannot take
the sound of the hoofbeats out of your ears.
I once heard a famous Jesuit discussing modern music, and he admitted that he did
have a quarrel with it. He said that much of it does appeal to that which is base and
elemental in our nature ; that it is very closely allied at times to the savage and un-
civilized music of the barbarian. But, he added, there is something to be said in favor
of our modern music. It has rhythm — rhythm that is compelling and joyous and alive.
Perhaps I might have confined my "word" in praise of modern music to that one point:
it has got rhythm. And who could ark for anything more?

To the world in general the months rolled along as usual, and September was just
one of them, but to us it was a momentous occasion. On the twenty-first of that month
we experienced a warm satisfying feeling on our return to St. Joseph's College.
To follow tradition we hazed the Freshmen, but we could not long maintain
that attitude. In fact, the first few weeks back, some of us, not yet accustomed to being
called "Sophomores," found ourselves attending Freshman clacs meetings.
On November the third our hearts were saddened at the news of the tragic death

class and her place can never be filled. In our hearts she will remain always a member
of the class of '39.
As enthusiastic Sophs, Arleen Andersen and Jane Walsh made the Varsity Basket-
ball. Through the leadership of Janet Lewis, the students of the college witnessed the
arrival of a fencing team.
Since we achieved the dignified standing of Sophomores we have been consulted
regarding important matters of college administration. Who can forget Grace Seims as
U. A. treasurer? Marion Kinsley, Jean Gillespie, and Birdie Antonades have been
selected to represent us on the Exam Committee ; Alda Giardinere and Mary Concannon
on the Attendance Committee; and Miriam Lally and Margery Phillips on the Point
System Committee.
Bea Hunkele as treasurer of the Dramatic Society, Lleanor van Wagner as secre-
tary of the History Club, and Mary Kane as treasurer of A. A., have distinguished
themselves. Replete with talent, the Sophomores have made themselves famous at St.
Joseph's theater. Ursula Reilly, Ann Brady, Marie Gough and Madeline Warganz
are our class dramatists.
With Ruth McManus as chairman, Sophomore Class Day was successful and well
planned. We have tried to maintain the reputation St. Joseph's College has earned.

The advances made by science in this ultramodern age have quickened, in a certain
sense, the tempo of our living and forced men to lay stress upon what is immediate
rather than upon what is important. The man who considers gravely the possible ulti-
mate consequences of a present act is a rare individual, but the world is in dire need of
such rare persons, for the social problems of today and of tomorrow can only be
solved by deep-thinking men.
The progress of nations through the ages seems to prove irrefutably that it is the
nature of nations that they be reared by men, that they be loved by men, and ulti-
mately that they be destroyed by men. This is akin to saying that men grow tired of
thinking and of watching and of planning for a day other than their own and for the
good of persons other than themselves. But "when the journey's over there'll be time
enough to sleep." While we are living de facto we act, and, no matter how narrow our
vision, the only profitable modus operandi has an eye on the road behind and an eye on
the road ahead.
If there is any lesson to be drawn from a view of the road behind, a road strewn
with relics of fallen nations, it can best be drawn from the one civilization which in-
cluded and blended into one whatever was of lasting value in all the cultures of an-
tiquity. This civilization was, of course, the Roman.
The glorious civic pride which sustained Rome throughout so many centuries of
trial and which, when forgotten, brought disaster, was born of the proposition that law
is the basis of true liberty. The glory of Rome — and we must be careful to distinguish
Rome's glory from the grandeur with which she has been gilded by the romantic his-
torian— is a testimony to the truism that what men call liberty or freedom presupposes
limitation or restraint. Liberty without limitation or freedom without restraint is a
nonentity, a contradiction in terms. On the other hand, restraint presupposes freedom,
limitation presupposes liberty. In any society of men a recognized balance between the
two must be preserved and just so long will a nation endure.
In our so-called "land of the free" men have been apt to forget the universal
validity of the balance between freedom and restraint. The merchant has demanded a
wider application of the system of laissez faire ; the teacher has demanded a much-
heralded academic freedom for himself and has advocated the depriving of education
of its normative qualities; the philosopher has demanded a freedom of thought which
leads to nowhere. Recently men have begun to have some realization of the folly of
undue freedom, and the forces of reaction have set the pendulum swinging back toward
the other extremity of needless restriction. There is an immediate danger in the proba-
bility of our going too far in this direction. True progress does not consist in jumping
from one extreme to another but lies somewhere along the via media, and when a
nation has learned to follow this path then only will its land be peopled by "Rich men
in virtue, studying beautifulness : living at peace in their houses."

Once Upon a Time
For hundreds of years the minds of children have been entertained by imaginative
tales and perhaps for hundreds of years more they will continue to welcome these stories
just as eagerly.
The more adventurous the story, the more rapt will be the interested attention. If
we improvise on H. G. Wells's ingenuity and skip a few years — backwards — and if we
go about the matter logically, we hope to prove that animal stories held our attention
until the giants and fairies came, who in turn were followed by knights in armor.
Those three little kittens who couldn't decide about their mittens were long-stand-
ing favorites. I can still picture the three little pigs — two of them singing and dancing
while the third was busy with his I-toId-you-so air as he cemented his bricks. This, in
some incoherent way, reminds me of the Tar Baby. I can't remember the story but I
do remember that for weeks I mourned the poor creature, who, be he fox or what
have >ou, finally became affiliated with the tar in quite a big way. The Easter season
always called for Peter Rabbit, who loved carrots and cabbage too much.
I think I'll skip the giants with nary a word, because the only one I remember is
from "Jack and the Beanstalk" and everybody knows him anyway.
"Once there was a noble knight in glistening armor clad, and upon his steed ar-
rayed . . ." Stories that began thus could even reconcile me to chocolate ice cream in-
stead of the preferred vanilla. I've had my fill of St. Georges, Lancelots and Galahads
with their Elaines and Guineveres. And A. A. Milne's other side of the picture, in his
"The Knight Whose Armor Didn't Squeak," always struck the right balance. You see,
I have kept the fairy stories until last; they always appealed to me most. My curiosity
about the fairies never seemed quite satisfied. I finally pictured them as small mys-
terious beings who carried wands which sometimes had stars on them. But as for the
rest, rav imagination supplied the details. As I look back now, I can recall my favorite
version of fairyland.
There was a beautiful garden which seemed isolated from the rest of the world.
Refreshing pine, sturdy oak, stately birches and graceful willows outlined the lake
which shone silver by the light of the moon. A circular flower bed close to the water's
edge contained every shade of the rainbow from palest gold to deepest purple. This
little section of nowhere knew no change of season ; it was always as fresh as winter, as
young as spring, as vibrant as summer and as lovely as autumn. Each midnight as the
moon rose, the garden became a symbol of silver splendor. A strange bird's song hailed
the arrival of the fairies. Music came from the tiny silver bells in their hair, about
their arms and necks and in the folds of their dresses. The hair and dresses of the
fairies seemed to be woven of the moonlight itself. They crooned softly, and if one
cared to listen, their whisperings told a hundred things. And there by the edge of the
lake, the little people sang and danced until the dew and the dawn.

Speaking to Our Elders
You call us the postwar generation. Today the term is synonymous with "proh-
lem," but we are more than a mere prohlem. We have exceeded the bounds within
which problems are studied. We can no longer be relegated to statistics, nor dosed with
a common remedy of society, nor discussed in the pages of a wise man's book. Our con-
ditions are too complex to be treated collectively. Only our outlook defines us: we our-
selves are a disorganized body that aches in many parts, and we must bear examination
if we are to work out our cure.
First of all there is the question of our numbers. In America alone, we are count-
less. You see us everywhere. In the more fortunate strata we are crowding your schools
because there is no work outside. In lesser spheres we are even more numerous. We form
a good part of your breadlines; we dig your ditches, work your mines, clerk your offices;
and, backed by the practical philosophy that "a fellow must live," many of us are riding
your freight trains, hobo style. In the East we pick berries in the country or shovel snow
in the city for the winter. In the South we sweat on your share-cropper farms and smile
sardonically at a myth about a man named Lincoln. In the West the face of a drought-
ridden soil gapes up at us as we turn it under our plow. No region of America is with-
out us; we form a major part of her vast population.
On the whole we are a self-conscious group, given primarily to self-analysis and
introspection. We are thinkers in a sense, pondering ourselves. When we congregate,
we are our own chief topic of discussion. We argue our chances or the lack of them;
we question the soundness of a system that apparently ignores us ; we talk of measures,
reform, action, but we do nothing. When we write, we throw our own shadows into
black print. Our literature is realistic, perhaps drably so, but it is our propaganda. When
we attend lectures, we want to hear ourselves discussed ; we want to listen again to
those phrases, "youth must be hopeful," "youth needs guidance," and to that slogan
about something, we know not what, that is "just around the corner."
This self-consciousness is especially evident in our colleges and universities, where
we try to find the solutions to our problems in lecture rooms and study halls. All too
often these proffered solutions are only shallow theories, verging on radicalism of a most
pessimistic sort. Far from aiding us, they tend to make us critics of the past and preach-
ers of a reformed present. They are a menace to ideals of liberty and democracy, and are
based on false interpretations of history and on the materialistic philosophies of radical
social economists. Impractical though they are, they play hard upon our discontent. Be-
cause the right has weakened, we are prone to lean toward the left. We cannot see the
good points of the old as we cannot see the bad points of the new. We are blinded by the
puzzle before us, but somehow we are moved more by impatience than by conviction.
While time may temper our enthusiasm, our radical groups will not be silenced until
conservatism has again found itself and adjusted its economic systems.
Although many of you are studying our conditions with a view to their improve-
ment, your conclusions are essentially the same. We must be given counsel, recreational
advantages, training for practical work and general moral guidance. All these are, in
a sense, merely suggestions, fur the actual solution lies with us. We are burdens to
ourselves in our idleness and in our inability to act constructively. The pang of wanting
ninety-eight
saint Joseph's college
what we cannot have is a major compla.nt of many of us. Primarily we want work. We
want to feel the stability and the freedom that comes with a job. Most of us want
luxuries as well, and we resent the system that would deny them to us. We want a
small income, but one generous enough to allow us to pay for our amusements and to
meet our emergencies. Surely in all the wealth of this land that portion, at least, be-
longs to us.
One of our greatest needs at present is a sane perseverance in which pessimism has
no place. We must hold fast to our ideals, for there is reason to support them ; we
must not relinquish our stubborn claim against this hoarding universe. If we knock hard
enough, the doors will open.
And until that time, what have we to su.tain us? Merely our outlook. It is op-
timistic, for dreams still hold a place in our schemes, but our optimism has been tem-
pered by past disappointments and the prospect of future trials. Our hopes have been
bridled by realities and a very slight tinge of resentment. They are not stifled, however,
they are merely stabilized. We have not lost our inherent belief in the ultimate adjust-
ment of things, nor have we forgotten that seeds bear fruit. And once our seeds take firm
root in the soil, we, too, shall reap a full harvest of the good earth.

Revery
June, how it could coax you out of doors
To watch it paint a sunset in the sky,
To see the purple, orange and the gold
Fading in the west ; how reverently
You gazed up at the quiet, distant hills
And felt their kinship, loved their silences,
Their nearness to the clouds; and how the wind
Would tell you of the presence of a flower;
How you smiled as every scent revealed
Secrets of the closing twilight hour ;
And how you loved the patterns in the trees
Woven of shade and branch and clustered leaves.
So long ago that was, but you remember
Though you have fled all seasons, June again
Can lure you with a sunset ; and I know
That at this hour, too sacrosanct for talking,
When day holds solemn vespers in the sky,
And evening steals aloft to sanctify,
In some enchanted forest you are walking.

College days! The hazy dreams of childhood clear into more definite goals. Such
were our sentiments when the sacred portal- of Saint Joseph's were drawn aside, and,
flushed with the new-won laurels of high school, we rather boldly entered.
We were fascinated by our first taste of college life, with a tea given in our honor,
and the solicitude of our Junior sisters that we hecome properly acquainted with the
college, until
We were brought back to earth suddenly by the stern edicts of those cruel Sophs
who prescribed hair ribbons and bibs. We wore them bravely for a week during which
it seemed our sole purpose was to amuse the uppercla smen.
Upon the completion of our two weeks' course in Freshman Education we were
hundred tiro
s a i n t j o s e p h' s college
given an examination in the Handbook, and fearfully we watched the bulletin board
for the results which, thank heaven, never appeared.
Possibly our first great thrill came the day we were invested in the cap and gown.
On that day we appreciated, at last, the dignity we had been looking for in our new life.
It was through the medium of clubs that we really became an integral part of St.
Joseph's. To prove our versatility we were represented in every activity. Two of our
members, Anne Hyland and Helen Skead, were selected for the Varsity.
Our first class meetings were directed by Betty Humann, whom we wish to thank
here for so ably guiding us until we elected our own officers in December '36.
To further cement the friendships which we had made during the year our class
participated in an extremely successful class day, one to be long remembered. The
thanks for this is due to Jeanne Gorman, chairman, who planned and carried out our
day's activity. We attended holy Mass in a body, after which breakfast was served in
the college. That evening we went to a theater party.
In April '37 we experienced the pleasure of seeing our class banner raised in the
"rec," a reminder that a year had slipped by almost unrealized.
We Freshmen are now real members of the student body of St. Joseph's College
and look forward to the next step — being Sophomores.

Silence
Dear, there has grown between us day bv dav
A silence like the breathless pause of night ;
Our thoughts meet in some secret place; our words
Have fled like birds to wonders out of sight.
My eager throbbing heart cries out to you;
With lips that move with words unsaid, I go;
I turn my head, because my eyes tell tales,
And yet, my dear, I almost think you know.
I cannot speak! See how the cliff drops down
To meet the sea, and leaves us here above.
In isolation, see the boundless stretch
Of lonely ocean, infinite as love.
The sun is gone from view, his heart is hid
But clouds reveal him by their radiant glow.
I had thought to hide ray heart — its fire
Would not be veiled. And now, at last, you know!

Keats
O dreamer of the dreams of ancient Greece,
Your life was but a fantasy of night,
You never knew the dawn of perfect peace
And yet the night sky lent you light.
You caught the music of the classic spheres,
The magic of the misty, fertile fall.
You set them to the ecstasy of tears,
With melancholy you enveiled them all.
You sang of beauty — Venus held her breath ;
You sang of life and life was raptured art.
Your hands were stretched for love — and met young death,
Reluctant fame illumined your still heart.
The laurels fell on your dead brow — too late —
But the contentment of your look was great.

Collectomaniacs
In the spring, with other contagious and dangerous diseases, comes the annual
house cleaning. With it, too, comes a rearrangement of, and in some cases a decrease in,
the respective "collections" of each member of the family.
Almost invariably Mother's collection consists of a neat group of baby booties,
snapshots and christening caps. These are frequently drawn out of their retirement to
convince people that Junior, quarterback on his college team, was once a beautiful little
baby. The collection is a relatively permanent one, being ended only when, as he is
sure to do, Junior marries someone of whom Mother does not approve. We can there-
fore pass over Mother's collection with little thought and concentrate on the less perma-
nent collections.
Nuts, bolts, screws, hinges, nails — all form part of Father's collection, rivaling local
hardware stores in the variety of its contents. One month there may be a definite trend
toward bolts, but the next month nails will be the thing, especially if a new house
is being built in the neighborhood. As for the more intellectual part of his collection,
now it is an accumulation of the "best works of literature" procured by cutting coupons
from daily newspapers, and again it is radios or home and farm magazines. His col-
lection is definitely opposed to Mother's because of its practical and untidy nature.
In some secluded closet one may always find an odd assortment of what is usually
referred to as "junk"; this is the collection of the small boy. Airplanes and soldiers
are scattered among the other things, having been thrown there after an important
battle. In a corner the inevitable bag of marbles may be seen. A collection of pistols
which would put any gangster to shame is in evidence. Scattered about are the large
toys which are so frequently forgotten within a week after Christmas and are in an un-
recognizable state by Easter.
Tall, short, light, dark — all are represented in the young man's collection of pic-
tures. These form the greater part of his pile of treasures and are produced on all occa-
sions to "show the boys the kind of women" he can get. Pipes, too, are his silent testimony
that he is no longer a child but a man. Holly leaves and yellow streamers evidence
the fact that he is a perennial "decoration-tearer-downer."
The young girl — here we meet our final and most disturbing problem, for her
collection is diverse and inexplicable. First, there is her makeup: an array of lipstick,
nail polish, eye shadow, mascara, rouge, powder, half of which has never been used
and three-quarters of which will never be u ed again. Next, there is her mass of letters
neatly filed according to person, time, or some other suitable classification. Dance pro-
grams and souvenirs occupy a small box occasionally disturbed by a new addition to its
contents. Her diary, because of the numerous pictures, ticket stubs and theater pro-
grams preserved therein, occupies no small part in her collection. Lastly, we find,
carefully pressed, the corsages from various formals, which she firmly vows to save for
either one of two occasions: showing them to her grandchildren or meditating on them
when she settles down to spinsterhood.
We might coin a name for it — collectomania ; but the cure evades all study.

London in the Nineteenth Century
"I would live in London, shirtless, bookless . . ." wrote Charles Lamb. To this very
loyal Londoner is also credited the enthusiastic boast that "London is the only fostering
soil of genius."
With all due respect to Lamb — and London — we object to the word "only."
However, it is true that during his age most of the famous writers came to live in the
great metropolis if they had not been born there.
Although these men did not share Lamb's exalted opinion of London, practically
all of them loved the place dearly, proof of which is seen in their writings. The very
atmosphere of the "nation of London," as Ue Quincey called it, abounds in the litera-
ture of the time.
And it is to Charles Lamb, "the staunchest Londoner of them all" that we first
turn to see this.
"I don't care much if I never see a mountain," Lamb said in a letter to Words-
worth. "I have passed all my days in London until I have formed as many and intense
local attachments as any of your mountaineers could have done with dead Nature."
And another time: "Oh, never let the lying poets be believed who 'tice men from the
cheerful haunts of streets . . ."
Through the streets of London he takes us — Fleet Street, the Temple, Christ's
Hospital. The city in all its aspects was a source of inspiration to him, but particularly he
loved "the huge fermenting mass of humankind." Many times he "shed tears in the
motley Strand for fulness of joy at so much life."
In direct contrast is Wordsworth, to whom the hum of the city was torture. But
when the streets were empty and "the tide of life was still" we have him producing such
deeply stirring sentiments as the lines upon Westminster Bridge.
This city now doth like a garment wear
The beauty of the morning . . .
How different are his feelings toward London in another poem entitled "London
1802." There is no love expressed but rebellion against the materialism to which London
had come. "We are selfish men . . ." he criticizes sharply.
Another who shared with Wordsworth a deep hatred for the city was Lord Byron,
who found it a desert of strangers in which society was too often "more painful than
solitude." It was more or less a spasm of respectability which caused London society
to so completely ostracize the young noble because of the notoriety of his marital
troubles. Byron's later writings were immensely influenced by this treatment. In Don
Juan he bitterly satirizes aristocratic society giving vent to his earlier feelings. To Tom
Moore, a very dear friend, he wrote: "You live near the stove of society, where you are
unavoidably influenced by its heat and vapours. I did so once — and too much — and
enough to colour my whole future existence."
And there are other examples, too numerous to explain, which illustrate the influ-
ence of London in English literature, but we must not forget Leigh Hunt who so
vividly pictures life among the lower classes. In his Autobiography, he describes Christ's
Hospital with all its human qualities. We read of one preacher "who had a habit of
s a i n t j o s e p h' s college
dipping up and down over his book like a chicken drinking" and another "with sort of a
high, flat voice who had a remarkable way of making a ladder of it."
His shorter essays provide a very realistic view of the city. Passing through Lon-
don with him, we see butcher stores and fishmongers with "their blood-dropping sheep
and their crimped cod." Or we meet some night watchmen on the way to work who,
Hunt says, had a "claim on the people indoors which, together with the amplitude of
their coating, make them feel themselves, not without reason, to be 'somebody. " It is
these delightful word pictures of London's ordinary people and places that make Hunt
so valuable to the student of social history.
Dickens — what a fascinating teacher of social history! Nicholas Niekleby for the
educational problem ; Little Dorrit for the evils of the prison system ; or Hard Tunis
for the factory system — in all the^e novels we read about London. There is no great
English writer who has more completely woven London into hi> work than Charles
Dickens. It is a London he learned to know from actual experience, a painful, humiliat-
ing experience which he never forgot even in the days of his greatest triumphs. The
London of his novels is this London of his boyhood.
As a child, during his father's imprisonment, Dickens worked there in a factory
pasting labels on blackening bottles for approximately one dollar and fifty cents a week.
Here he obtained a background for his later work, such as Little Dorrit , a study reveal-
ing the sufferings of the London poor and the terrors of debtors' prison. At fifteen he
was working in a law office at Gray's Inn, which he later described as "that stronghold
of melancholy, one of the most depressing institutions in brick and mortar known to
the children of men." Or again in Bleak House Dickens writes that the best time to in-
troduce us to the chancery courts was in the "implacable November weather" when
"the raw afternoon is rawest and the dense fog is densest, and the muddy streets are
muddier, where at the very heart of the fog sits the Lord High Chancellor."
The system of the London courts was very hateful to Dickens. In his various works
there are over fifty scenes in chambers and halls of lawyers. Many of the social condi-
tions against which he wrote were corrected because of the vigor of his attacks.
And so we see that it is through the world of literature, as well as in the old houses
and literary shrines for which London is so famous, that we can bring back the past
of this romantically human city.

Brief Interlude
There is some indefinable quality contained in the abstract which will always at-
tract and arouse the human intellect. With such an unlimited scope the mind is able to
transcend the barriers of specific detail and hover over the broader realms of random
considerations. Writers of no great experience are warned against the use of the abstract
in their works becau e too o!ten the freedom of expression which it offers leads one to
overstep the limits of conventional form. Aware of all these facts and mindful of that
oft-repeated expression, "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread," I stand unabashed,
ready to plunge into a world of unreality.
Perhaps it would not be inappropriate at this point to distinguish between the two
spheres under consideration. The first, surveyed with brevity, may be described as the
region in which we live, the practical portion of our lives, utilizing physical and mental
capabilities to further general well-being. The second sphere interesting us at present is
the realm of the imagination or that place relying for its existence almost entirely
on the transient activities of the mind. Here we are permitted to release the taut strings
of suppressed emotion and wander in a labyrinth of unbridled fantasy.
Momentarily forgetting the first commonplace things, let us drift, in willful
reverie, upon the soothing waters of the river Lethe, our quest, this intangible land of
unreality. Somewhere countless miles ahead it stands separated and aloof, enveloped
in an opalescent mist. The sun, beating down in all the intensity of a noonday glare,
has ripped the misty cloak protecting it into a myriad of silken threads. On the breath of
a light breeze these reluctantly unravel and drift over the water to be reflected like
lacy wraiths in its gleaming depths. As we move closer a great bird plunges through the
air, rising in sweeping arcs above the highest treetops. Its appearance seem; to strike
a familiar note somewhere within us as we recall "At length did come an Albatross,
through the fog it came." Coleridge, too, found inspiration here in the bewitching at-
mosphere of the unreal. Before him Cowper, the mad poet, describes his departure from
the ordinary in the words, "I was a stricken deer that left the herd long since," and
William Blake gives voice to a happier transition in the mystical theme of his Songs of
Innocence —
And we are put on earth a little space.
That we may learn to bear the beams of love.
Our thoughts are interrupted by the jarring of the boat as it scrapes against the
shore. From the bright haze before us figures suddenly emerge, moving about in an
irridescent glow. On more interested scrutiny they appear to be shadowy counterparts
of ourselves, living apart in an ideal state of Utopian harmony. All endeavors to contact
them prove futile for, totally oblivious of any foreign presence, they continue to carry
on their invisible duties, each contributing to the general air of harmony.
At length, wearied by the failure of our efforts to establish communication, we settle
back to let sight fill in the gaps which sound has left unanswered. Even here our ex-
pectations are blasted, for the luminous glow of a moment before is fading with the
sinking sun, and the stray wisps of fog have blended once again into a heavy mist. For
a moment we cast one last look upon the scene and suddenly the darkness is complete
and we return.

Autumn Interlude
Gosh! but this is the life! Strutting down a shady lane with Dan makes a dog feel
pretty great
The shooting was good today too! We certainly were lucky, stumbling upon
that nest of pheasants. They couldn't get away from Dan. He brought down three fat
ones for me to bring back. I enjoy that part of the sport. They feel warm and soft and
have a queer heavy odor about them. That smell will always remind me of joyous days
in the field. All in all . . . Hold on! Dan is stopping. Guess he's going to rest for awhile.
It's fine to lie close beside a good master. His hand is hard, yet kindly on my head.
I wonder if he'd mind if I kissed him. Nothing like trying
Crack !
Run, dog, run! Dan will certainly be angry about this. He told you never to jump
around guns. Oh well! Buck up and go back and take your medicine like a real dog. I
guess he's not so angry after all. He's stretched out there on the grass as if he hadn't a
care in the world.
My, but it's quiet here in the country. Come on, Dan, let's go. Why doesn't he
move? . . . Even poking him with my nose doesn't do any good. Guess I might as well
lie down next to him; he feels a little cold. Funny thing too — he smells a little like the
pheasants do when I bring them back. . . .

Conformity
He could hear them talking about him as he neared the end of the high wooden
boards that semicircled the lot. Snatches of sentences came to him: "He doesn't call
her mother ... he must be an orphan ... he calls her Stella . . ." The abruptness of
the thoughts made him only semiconscious of their meaning. It was like a program some-
one put on the radio. He couldn't help hearing it, but the words sounded meaningless.
They were still jabbering when he came into their sight. His presence startled them,
for they weren't sure whether he had heard or not. Finally he broke the silence with a
curt "Hello." Someone returned his greeting. It sounded flat and dry. Another stillness
followed.
Then one, who wanted to show the others how daring he was, questioned, "Why
do you call your mother Stella?" Unexpected in its hluntness, the question cramped his
mind. The other boy, spurred on by this seeming bashfulness, queried, "You're adopted,
aren't you ?"
Vivified by this thrust, words tripped over themselves running from his mouth. "No,
I'm not adopted, Stella's my mother. I call her Stella 'cause I like to — 'cause I want to.
I'm always gonna call her Stella, always, always, always " And off flew Stella's
child across the lot crying in his heart, "I hate them, I hate them!"
Arriving at his own door, he hesitated a moment, wiped his eyes, blew his nose,
then quickly opened the door and shouted in an unnaturally gay voice, "Hello, Mother."

Nursery School
Within the past few years increasing stress has been placed on the need for training
the body, mind and emotions of the pre-school child. It was with this end in view that
the nursery school, under the supervision of trained psychologists, was founded in 1 934.
Each year has been marked by improvements, the most outstanding of which has
taken place during the past year. This, of course, is the acquisition of the large section of
property adjoining the new building, which has been converted into a playground for
the children. It is thoroughly equipped with jungle gym, slide walking beams, swings,
sandbox and wheel toys, which are so essential in the child's physical development. Al-
though provision for physical development is made in the playroom, also, in such ac-
tivities as ballplaying, climbing and rhythms, most of the playthings stimulate mental
activity as well. Blocks, picture books, storybooks, puzzles, paints, crayons and scissors
are the chief aids to this phase of the child's growth. In all situations there is opportunity
for emotional development. The impulsive are continually learning to act cautiously,
while the shy quiet child is led to a livelier enjoyment of life. Early necessity for ad-
justing to persons of varying temperaments will equip the child for the social contacts
of later life.
These are the objectives around which the daily program is built. In cases where
harm cannot result from freedom the child strengthens his power of judgment by
making his own decisions. Only those things are insisted upon which result in the
formation of useful and timesaving habits. Before beginning the day's work, each child
hundred ten
saint Joseph's college
must visit the nurse. After the examination the children go out to the play yard for a
two-hour period of free play, which is hroken hy a short rest and refreshment. After the
return to the nursery school an hour is devoted to painting, music, puzzles and story-
books. During the lunch hour, which follows, the children indulge in conversation, and
in so doing, they unconsciously form desirable social habits. Because of the great amount
of energy used by young children, the early part of the afternoon is given over to resting.
The remainder of the afternoon is spent in playing with blocks or dolls, until their
parents call for them.
To insure a carry-over of results from the nursery school to the home, the school
keeps in close contact with the parents. Conferences are held in which the parent is given
information on the best method of managing her child. Detailed records of the child's
progress, which are kept in the school office, are used as the basis of the regular reports
sent to the home. Advice is given also on special problems with which the parent is
confronted in the home and which she finds difficult to handle.
Although the development of the child is the primary aim of the nursery school, it
serves also as a means of training the college student in the methods of child psychology.
The courses which she takes in storytelling, play activities and direction and guidance
of young children are vitalized by observation and actual assistance in the nursery
school. An observation booth, sectioned off from the playroom, allows the students to
watch the children without attracting their attention. Such observation gives an under-
standing of the significance of children's experiences and a knowledge of methods of
handling children. Through this, and through actual assistance in the care of the children,
the students are qualified for positions as assistants in nursery schools, kindergartens
and day nurseries. The nursery school, therefore, is a means of testing the ability of
those attracted to the work and desirous of doing graduate work in that field.
The nursery-school movement has passed the formative stage. What was regarded
as an experiment is now recognized as the essential foundation for a happy, well-
adjusted adulthood.

We returned to school this year with more than the usual excitement and en-
thusiasm, for there were more than the usual things to be seen and enjoyed. During
the summer our dreams of a campus were realized, for with the purchase of a building
to be used as a convent, we were given access to the large grounds surrounding it. The
new library was yet to be used and the two lunchrooms were waiting to be completed.
To carry through this idea of newness, our first social event was an innovation. A
tea and reception was given to the incoming Freshmen by the Undergraduate Association,
under the direction of Alice Kennedy \?8. This tea replaced the numerous parties
previously given to the newcomers by each class, combining them into one affair.
The new library, called Lorenzo Hall in honor of Sister Lorenzo, former registrar
of the college and a person held in love and esteem by all those who knew her, was used
immediately. Soon the lunchrooms, with full equipment, were completed. A sitting room
was fitted out below the library and red leather furniture was bought, for our ease as
well as to enhance our social events. A small theater and music room were set aside for
one hundred fourtc
saint Joseph's college
the use of the Dramatic Society and Glee Club. All these new improvements were
shown off to advantage on Parents' Day, under the chairmanship of Isabelle Hession '37.
We hope they were as impressed as we were.
Besides incorporating many of these new features, we renewed the ones begun last
year. The students, at a G. A. Forum, expressed their desire to continue the use of sub-
scription tickets. Owing to the success of last year's Fathers' Club Dance, it was repeated,
with even greater enthusiasm and improvement, through the combined efforts of the
Fathers' Club, Council and Religion committees. We hope it remains an established
feature. When Christmas approached we continued the practice begun last year of asking
Catholic Charities to give us the names of twelve needy families. Again each class pro-
vided the food, clothing, toys and trees for three of them. Having provided for the hap-
piness of others, we were given a Christmas Party by the Undergraduate Association,
under the chairmanship of Lillian Keenan '37. To top the evening, and because it w as
so appropriate, the members of the Glee Club and any others who were in the holiday
spirit sang Christmas hymns and carols to the nuns at the convent. After accepting their
invitation to see their chapel we left for the Christmas vacation.
Examinations occupied us upon our return, but soon they were over, retreat began,
and the next week a new semester started. The U. A. Council entertained the February
Freshmen with a tea. Alice Kennedy was again appointed chairman, and it was held in
our new reception room, with the officers pouring. The "frosh" were initiated into the
intricacies of the building, and the Council tried to get them as used to the college as
possible before starting their classes.
Pat Billington '37 was appointed chairman of Alumnae Day. In order to celebrate
the day set aside for the "grads" and to make them as welcome as possible, Father
Bracken's Choir again entertained. After the concert, tea was served in the gym and the
"alums" and undergraduates renewed their friendships.
The Student Association for International Peace held their Peace Conference at
the college on February thirteenth. As members of the association we acted as hostesses
at the luncheon given during the conference. Miss MacGillivray, president of the History
Club, was chairman.
Margaret Young was appointed chairman of the Reception to High School Seniors
and so in May the school was opened to those who would like to see what college is like.
They were entertained by the Dramatic Society and Glee Club. We hope to see them
all in the future.
It would be serious to neglect to mention our G. A. programs. They were planned
by Kathleen Haigney '37 and were a pleasant combination of education and entertain-
ment. Thank you, Kay.
Just as we began with new things, we end with the old. Graduation approached and
soon the day came when we were all assembled again at the Academy of Music, waiting
impatiently for the chord of music to start the march. In a little while the Seniors became
graduates, and with the turning of the tassels each class moved up another step. This
year will ever remain a notable one because of the inception of so many new features.
We hope that we have been worthy of the responsibility placed upon us.

Religion Committee
Chairman
Secretary

Mary Elizabeth Delaney
Helen Frances Higgins

Religion must play a prominent part in the true development of the individual
personality. The practice of religion gives a spiritual and cultural background unobtain-
able from any other source. To make religion a part of our daily lives it is necessary to
inculcate an appreciation of, and a familiarity with, its exercises. The interest thus
imparted will last long after Commencement Day.
The Religion Committee of St. Joseph's College performs this service to the student
body. It endeavors to interest every girl in the religious exercises of her faith and to
impart a lively devotion to all. There is no suggestion of compulsion in regard to these
exercises, for we believe that would defeat the end we seek.
To keep the student mindful of her Catholic heritage there are many daily acts of
devotion. Morning prayers are said at eight-fifty to bless the work we are about to
undertake. At twelve o'clock Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament is offered.
The priests of the college give up a part of their time every day to hearing confessions.
Every First Friday, Mass is offered for the student body at eight o'clock. Breakfast
is provided for those desiring it. From twelve noon to six o'clock Exposition of the
Blessed Sacrament takes place. At seven-thirty begin the "Evenings with Christ." These
are meetings, held expressly for the Alumnae, to which undergraduates are invited.

They show their interest by attending in large numbers. This year the meetings have
started with an Open Forum conducted by the priests of the college. The topics are
on timely subjects, and have provoked much discussion. Many have been aided in
understanding the Catholic position on important matters of the day. Following the
discussion there is a sermon ; Benediction makes the fitting close of a day devoted to
honoring Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.
During the month of October special devotions to our Blessed Mother are prac-
ticed. To turn our minds to a contemplation of the ideal woman, the Rosarv and the
Litany of the Ble-sed Virgin are recited aloud during Benediction. The popularity of
these "October Devotions" is a sufficient testimony to the position of Mary in the
hearts of the students.
With the approach of Advent the Committee sponsors a Novena to the Christ
Child, to prepare for the feast of Christmas. A lass is offered every morning, and the
novena exercises are conducted then, and again at noon.
The last week of January is the time for the annual retreat. All Catholic students
are required to attend, but we feel that they should desire to do so since they appreciate
the tremendous value of this exercise. The retreat lasts for three days, and on the morning
of the fourth day Mass and General Communion take place. The retreat this year was
conducted by Father Favier, a Franciscan.
In February the holy season of Lent arrives. Appropriate exercises are offered by the
college, to prepare for Easter. Starting on Ash Wednesday. Mass is offered every morn-
ing. Breakfast is prepared for those who receive Holy Communion. In addition to the
regular Benediction every noon, Stations of the Cross are said on Mondays, and on
Wednesday short Lenten Sermons are delivered by Father Dillon. The topics for the
latter are from suggestions by students on matters that are of paramount importance in
our present scheme of life. From the attendance at these functions it would seem that
the students are deeply interested and are aware of the spiritual benefits to be derived.
The Missal Club is another activity sponsored by the Religion Committee. The
use of the Missal is explained, students may bring up problems concerning it and have
a solution presented, and interesting details of particular Masses are discussed. During
this Lent a new custom has been inaugurated at the daily Mass. Some of the students
assist at Mass, giving the responses aloud. This is to make our participation in, and
appreciation of, the Sacrifice of the Mass more complete.
However, all the activities of the Religion Committee are not along these lines.
They sponsor the Annual Fall Dance on Hallowe'en at the college. Mary Meehan was
chairman of this year's dance, and its success was the result of her work and that of her
committee. The proceeds of this dance go to the Society for the Propagation of the Faith,
in which every student is enrolled.
In conjunction with the Undergraduate Council, the Religion Committee sponsored
an informal dance at the college January tenth. This dance was under the auspices of the
Fathers' Club.
This year the Religion Committee is inaugurating an informal Spring Dance on
May twenty-eighth at the college. At this writing we are looking forward to its success
with high hopes.
Thus we see that religion becomes an integral part of the college student's life if
she will but meet it halfway. She may take advantage of the tremendous graces of her
faith so freely offered. Religion can and does develop both soul and mind to a depth of
understanding and a richness of background that no one can afford to overlook.

The Attendance Committee
Cht
Margaret English
Secretary
Ruth Whitbread
In the problem of regulating attendance at classes the students themselves are per-
mitted to find the solution. As a result one of the phases of student administration is to
be found in the Attendance Committee.
The system under which the committee works consists in allotting a certain number
of absences in each course, according to the number of hours it meets during a semester.
If any student exceeds this amount she must account to the committee for every absence
taken. If she is unable to do this satisfactorily one point is deducted from her total
number of points. If, however, she is able to account for every absence her appeal is
granted and no penalty is inflicted.
The present committee is functioning under a new plan inaugurated just one year
ago. Under it, instead of waiting until the end of a semester and then hearing the cases
of all the students who are "over-cut," as was previously done, the committee meets once
a month, and at that time all students must account for every absence taken during the
previous month or else forfeit the right to appeal for those subjects at the end of the
semester. When this happens, the student automatically suffers the prescribed penalty.
The Attendance Committee feels that students in college should have a more
mature view on attendance at classes than the one they held while in high school. If,
hundred eiyliteen
saint Joseph's college
however, there are some who have not yet reached this conclusion, it is to be expected
that they will accept with good grace the penalties they know will be inflicted if the
number of ab.ences they are permitted does not equal the number they have taken.

Committee for Student Administration
of Examinations
Chairman Elizabeth O'Halloran Secretary Miriam Mannix
The Committee for Student Administration of Examinations has been working
under the present regime since February 1935, when the new constitution and name
were unanimously approved by the student body. The final examinations of the fol-
lowing June witnessed the inception of the new regime, and since then the responsibility
for the administration of examinations has been the lot of this committee.
About the same time formal mid-semester examinations were ruled out by the
faculty and students. With this began the system of numerous hour quizzes during the
term. If the professor chooses to manage the test himself that is out of committee hands,
i.e., as far as the administration is concerned. On the other hand, it is part of our function
if he prefers to have the committee take charge, and we shall gladly discharge it.
Coupled with the right of administering examinations is the unhappy duty of the
committee to investigate where infringements have occurred. It is at the same time the
duty of the students to report any infringements.
The members of the present committee are Elizabeth O'Halloran, Carol Denelfo,
Margaret Young, Katherine Shea, Cecelia Greegan, Miriam Mannix, Bertha Antona-
des, Marion Kingsley, Jean Gillespie, Ann Hyland, Maude Whitbread, Evelyn Winter.

Extra— Cur r icul ar Activities Committee
Chairman Yvonne AuDION Secretary Ann M. Kane
The Extra-Curricular Activities Committee was organized in 1927 as another
step in the program of student government at St. Joseph's.
The aim of the committee is twofold. It works toward the stimulation of interest
in extra-curricular activities among the undergraduates, and at the same time prevents
a monopoly of student offices on the part of a few. By a system of non-academic "points,"
this work is carried out. Each undergraduate must carry not less than three, nor more
than ten of these points, which are apportioned by the committee to each society, office
and club. If, for any reason, a student feels she can not possibly conform she may bring
her case before the committee which will act as a court of appeals.
Each member is permitted three absences each semester. If she exceeds these three
she will be called before the committee for a hearing. The penalty, if her appeal is
denied, is debarment from social activities for the following semester.
During the past year a new policy has been inaugurated in St. Joseph's, in con-
formity with suggestions made by the Faculty Committee. Beginning with this semester,
the records of each student's extra-curricular activity will be kept in the office. This
record will consist of the names of all activities to which the student has contributed or
in which she has been registered, plus a rating she received in each activity.
This entire system is based on the belief that the social side is a very prominent part
of college life. We of St. Joseph's believe that the truly educated woman is the one who
can take her place as a graceful and intelligent member of society.

The student body is gathered in the gymnasium to review the athletic season of
'36— '37. We see a "Potpourri" — a game of many games played by the Athletic Associa-
tion members assembled in many teams. The president, Miss Young, blows her whistle
and the game is begun.
First Quarter
The members of the Varsity, gay in their new yellow uniforms, run out onto the
floor of the gymnasium, following their captain, Peggy English. We have had a success-
ful season, and an interesting schedule, thanks to the management of Betty O'Halloran.
Up to the last game, our Varsity remained an undefeated team, losing the Manhattanville
game by one point. We are proud of our Varsity and its victories over Brooklyn College,
Hunter College, New York University and the College of Mount St. Vincent.
Second Quarter
Down at the far end of the court we see volley ball nets being placed in position.
Frances McLoughlin, the manager, raises her whistle as a signal for the game to begin.

The two teams are composed of the interclass teams which have already completed their
tournament. The teams are evenly matched and the competition is keen. While this game
is being played, at the near end of the court Janet Lewis gives an example of the expert
marksmanship of her Rifle Squad. Their unerring aim is to be c( mplimented.
Third Quarter
Margaret Berkery, manager of interclass basketball, calls for her teams. They give
a demonstration of the various ; kills that are essential to a successful team. After this
these teams leave the floor. Margaret Sullivan blows her whistle and the baseball teams
of each cla s take the floor. They go through their workout to show their excellent con-
dition.
Last Quarter
Annette Robinson, manager of tennis, announces that there will be a double, match
immediately. The well-played match shows the skill of our be>t tennis players and
justifies the enthusiasm of the audience.
Dorothea Allen then announces that the doubles badminton match will be played.
The result of her competent instruction is shown in the skill of her players.
The game is over ; the score is announced by Miss Young as a completely successful
season. We hope to have many more in the future.

The path of true dramatic art does not run smoothly. One misplaced property and
an entire cast will assume the frenzied attitude of Greek tragedy. That, at least, was
our experience when we presented a short one-act play, Thank You, Doctor, for the
Fathers' cluh. A puzzled cast ad-libbed heroically while one of the members shouted
hoarsely from behind the curtain, "1 can't find the box!" We won't explain how the
show went on, but go on it did and, what is more important the Fathers enjoyed it.
In addition to Thank You, Doctor and several one-act plays presented on various
occasions, the 1936-37 season will be renowned in the annals of the Dramatic Society
as the year in which we were privileged to present two major productions. The first
of these, Fred Ballard's Ladies of the Jury evoked a great deal of anticipatory interest
when it was learned that the scene, as suggested by the title, was laid in a courtroom.
The play fulfilled all expectations. Celeste Hughes, as Mrs. Livingston-Baldwin Crane,
gave an excellent performance ; so excellent that we wouldn't want her on our jury.
Ladies of the Jury has since been made into a moving picture, but our loyal "public"
One hundred tivrnly-four
s a i 11 1 Joseph's college
insists that it could have been improved by the importation of some of St. Joseph's talent.
Ferenc Molnar's The Swan was our second attraction. More in the romantic tra-
dition, with its background of royalty and mythical kingdoms, this play afforded us
ample opportunity to prove the versatility about which we boast. An equally important
opportunity was afforded the heroine, Ursula Reilly, of wearing three evening gowns —
one for each act. No wonder Agi (Patricia Muller) and Albert (Marguerite Mulrenan)
fought over her. We feel that the success of The Szcau justifies the faith of those
who were confident of our ability to produce two shows.
Under the direction of Madeleine Noonan, our president, a serious effort was made,
during the Spring semester, at reorganizing the procedure of the weekly meetings. The
society was divided into groups each of which took up a different aspect of dramatic work.
The play-reading group devoted its time to the compilation of a list of one- and three-
act plays suitable for future presentation by the society. The interpretive reading group
concentrated on the oral interpretation of poetry and scenes from plays. A smaller but
no less interesting division took up the work of the theatrical make-up which proved of
great help in presenting the plays. The last section of the club — The Scenery Committee
— could be seen almost every afternoon in the property room cheerfully hammering
away at their fingers and daubing their smocks, and incidentally the scenery, with paint.
This committee, one of the hardest working ones within the society, deserves a great
deal of the credit for the success of our productions. They were responsible both for
the realistic courtroom scene used in Ladies of the Jury and for the decorative armorial
shields used as atmosphere in The Swan.
It would be impossible even to attempt a resume of the past season's activities with-
out acknowledging our debt to our coach, Mr. Robert Cass, and to Madeleine Noonan
who so capably directed the society's program. They have laid the way: it is for us to
follow through.

Music waves eternal wands —
Enchantress of the souls of mortals.
This season's activities in the Glee Club have brought us many steps along the
pathway of culture. The aesthetic aims of our society have been carefully cherished and
carried forward by our members.
We have ventured ahead under the very fine guidance of Professor Carl Schlegel.
The Glee Club began its very successful year with a program for the Fathers'
Club. Selections by the entire club and by our trio, composed of Eileen Maher, Frances
Young and Frances Coffey, were featured.
The second affair at which the group entertained was the annual bridge for the
benefit of Our Lady Star of the Sea parish of Saltaire, Long Island.
At Christinas time we repeated a practice which was initiated last year. The Glee
Club members, dressed in surplices, sang hymns as a part of the Christmas Tableau.
The choir sang many familiar Christmas carols. This spirit was shared by the other
students of the college. Before leaving on Tuesday, December twenty-second, the entire
one hundred twenty-six
saint Joseph's college
student body, led by the Glee Club, serenaded the Sisters of St. Joseph at the convent.
After our return from the holiday recess we were concerned with preparing a
program for a joint concert with the Manhattan College Glee Club. This was the first
time that we had ever collaborated with another college in a presentation. The concert,
held on Sunday, February seventh, was a fine social event. After the concert a tea dance
was held in the large reception rooms of the college for the members of both Glee Clubs.
A contest among the students for an additional school song was our next undertak-
ing. Although not limited to the club members, the winner was one of our very active
members, Eileen Maher.
The most important undertaking of the Glee Club is its annual concert which was
held this year on April eighth. Our director, Mr. Schlegel, favored us with a few
selections. There were many fine numbers by the entire club. Our program consisted
also of songs by our trio. The soloists for the occasion were Margaret Hirsch, Eileen
Maher and Virginia Walsh. Our very able accompanists, Jean O'Reilly and Gertrude
Mayer, contributed to the fine program by their piano solos.
We go forward now with even greater dreams of achievement in the future and
hope that we shall be able to bring success to the undertakings of our club.

Loria had been criticized in the past for being written by the staff and for having
too narrow an appeal. Therefore we came to the task with the general aim of making
one hundred t<iurnty-eight
s a i 11 t j o s e p h' s college
Loria more representative of the student body. This we hoped to do by enlarging the
number of contributors, by varying the material and by adding new features.
We began our campaign by discussing the criticisms and possibilities of Loria with
the Literary Group. Then we distributed questionnaires to find out what the students
wanted in their magazine. Evidently both these measures were effective : the Fall issue,
which boasted a three-color cover quite unlike any that had preceded it, contained mostly
contributions from students who were not on the staff. The Christmas and Spring
issues, which were larger in volume, succeeded even further by presenting many new
contributors. Now we feel that we have achieved our aim in part since we have aroused
a decided interest in contributing.
The materials for Loria should be drawn from the various departments and activi-
ties, and from all classes. Originally the magazine was issued by the literary society,
and in former years it drew its material mostly from the upper-class English majors.
But this year, determined to broaden its scope, we included articles of interest from
religious, political, and musical points of view, triumphing in the Spring issue with two
essays in French. The Freshmen, who are usually hesitant about contributing, were
brave enough this year to make their debut in our first issue. A contest conducted especially
for them helped us to draw them out.
The Alumnae have always been an integral part of Saint Joseph's and therefore
should be included in any project which attempts to be representative of the college.
For this reason we extended an invitation to the Alumnae to contribute one article
for each issue. They apparently were in favor of the suggestion, for they responded
readily. Their contributions were varied : a reminiscence of Saint Joseph's ten years ago,
an account of travel and of study, and a suggestion for our attitudes in the future.
It was suggested that Loria include those features of a newspaper that might be
appropriate for a magazine also. In accordance with this we devoted space in each issue
for editorials on topics of general and school interest. We also introduced interviews with
well-known people, a feature which proved quite popular.
In order that we might not neglect the tradition of Loria of fostering an apprecia-
tion of good literature, we published a series of articles on Catholic authors who
should be better known by the student body. These essays took the form of appreciations
rather than criticisms.
Heretofore the importance of art work in Loria had not been recognized. But we
believed that it should have more significance. With the co-operation of the Art Club,
we managed to cut down the expenses of printing art work by using linoleum cuts. Thus
we were enabled to increase the amount of art work. The cuts proved effective for the
covers as well as for the illustrations.
As we look back over the results of our work we realize that we have not succeeded
in revolutionizing the magazine nor in raising it to its rightful importance as the official
magazine of Saint Joseph's College. But we have eliminated some of its failings and
we have given to it the suggestions of "new worlds to conquer."

The Cercle Moliere was formed primarily to give a better and more intelligent
understanding of the cultural background of France to advanced students of French,
and also to foster a more earnest and fervent feeling for these backgrounds in those
not familiar with the language.
All meetings are conducted in French. The club tries to arrange programs which
will meet with everyone's approval and appreciation.
The outstanding event of the year was the presentation of our dramatic production
Les Femm.es Fortes on the night of the twentieth of November. We are most certain
that if our play was a success it may be ascribed to its most competent directors, Mr.
Aucoin and Mile. Michaud, whose tireless efforts and patience brought success to the
comedy of Sardou. This presentation was recognized by the Courrier Des Etats-Unis,
the best current journal of the French-reading public in the United States, and the New
York Times, in which we received noteworthy comments.
With the month of December nearing, the members of the French Club proceeded
to make arrangements for their Christmas party. The spirit of Christmas prevailed and
one hundred thirty
s a i n t j o s e p h ' s college
everyone had a merry time. The program included a dinner, French talks on the Noel,
games and the singing of Christmas carols in French.
The club has tried to promote an interest in the French productions given by other
colleges. In keeping with this idea the members attended the production of Le Cid at
Hunter College.
The spring semester began with a musicale of French classical and operatic com-
posers such as Bizet, Gounod, Saint-Saens and Massenet. To promote this appreciation
for music the girls gave short talks en the works and lives of the composers.
Later in the semester we were fortunate enough to hear a lecture given in French
by Agnes Dooley, president of the club during 1934-35- Her very interesting talk
consisted of her experiences in the French University at Grenoble. She also enlightened
us on the customs of the French people of today.
Accompanied by the head of the French Department, Mile. Michaud, a group at-
tended the French theater in New York City where they saw a modern play entitled
Christian by Yvan Noe.
On our return to the college after Eastertime, our own Father William Ryan
gave us a lecture in French on "The Trends of Culture in Modern France Today,"
which was more than appreciated by the students. Mile. Michaud also gave us a lecture
on Paris, accompanied by lantern slides.
Something new and different! The members of the French Club have been asked
to contribute articles written in French to Loria. Two of our members, Mary Marshall
and Connie Giampietro, submitted articles.
The Cercle Moliere has completed a very successful year under the excellent
guidance of Mile. Michaud and its president, Janet Morris.
The Seniors have been invited to a farewell reception which can in no way
compensate for the work they did during the year. Only with their support and co-
operation was the French Club able to carry on its activities to such magnitude. How-
ever, this is not really a farewell since they, in turn, will join the Alumnae French
Club, formed at the beginning of the year. In this way we shall be able to keep in close
contact with one another.

Serenaders

The Serenaders is an old, and yet a new, organization. This club of the college
began many years ago, but was discontinued in 1935. However, during this past year
the group has been reorganized. As yet it is a young organization, but hopes to advance
and become an important part of the college.
The members of the Serenaders believe that an appreciation of instrumental music,
whether one is a performer or a listener, is especially valuable to college graduates.
The Serenaders will become an active part of the Undergraduate Association and
will entertain occasionally at General Assembly. We shall also furnish the music for
other college functions throughout the year. At the culmination of the year's activities
the Serenaders will direct their efforts toward the musical portion of the Commencement
Exercises.

Art Club
President EVELYN McCaUSLAND
Secretary-Treasurer Marie Gough
Since art is nature working through man, man must develop such aesthetic senses
as will enhance that nature.
1 he Art Club desires to give each person a liner feeling and understanding for the
beauty in all forms of nature that one may meet in everyday life. The members of this
still growing club first learned design under the able direction of Mr. Aucoin. They
then learned the use of charcoal in portraits. There are many pictures from this group
to be put in the exhibit at the end of May.
At Christmas time, the Art Club members designed and cut their own linoleum
blocks. They stamped their own Christmas cards with these cuts. Linoleum allover
patterns were printed on various colored doilies.
Each member tries to delve into some new field of art. The experiments are then
exhibited and criticized by the whole group. Some of these outside fields are: sculpturing,
leather tooling, wood-pyrography, pencil and ink sketching, water colors, and oil paint-
ing. The club hopes to go deeper into these fields as it progresses. So that we may also
see the works of great artists in each of these fields, the Art Club has attended many art
exhibits. These exhibits should not only interest the person interested in art hut also
the person wishing to gain some appreciation of art.
In order to be of assistance to the college, the Art Club has made posters for the
social affairs as well as for other clubs in the college.
As its program of progressive activity materializes, the Art Club hopes the cultural
background of its members will increase.

Bridge Club
President Helen Deegan
Secretary Margaret Scannell
The Bridge Club has been in existence since February '35. It has since grown to be
one of the most popular college clubs. Having started with a membership of about
twenty, today we have about seventy listed as active members.
The atmosphere of the Bridge Club meetings is designedly informal, for our
purpose is to bring about a wider acquaintanceship among the members of the various
classes. Meetings in the "Old Aud" are characterized by animated discussions as to
the respective merits of the Culbertson and Jacoby systems of bidding and hands.
During the fall semester of 1936, it was agreed among the older members and the
officers that the club should present some new and definite program for the members.
After many attempts at having students serve as teachers of both contract and auction,
it was decided that a more beneficial program would be secured if an authority in the
field conducted a series of lectures for the members of the club. It was with this in mind
that the officers obtained estimates from such persons as Mr. Barclay and Mr. Curtin.
Because plans were not made until February, it was too late for our group to profit
by any changes. These ideas which we have been unable to carry out we leave to those
who still remain. We pass the potential lectures to next year's group. May they complete
what we have begun and share in the good times we have had and will always re-
member.

History Club
President MARGARET MacGilliV'RAY
Secretary ELEANOR Van WAGNER
Pax Christi in Regno Christ!
The program of the History Club has been varied and diverse. The interest of the
members was absorbed by the various activities offered to the group this year. Among the
more important interests participated in were the symposiums held on the current
events, especially the discussions on "Present Day Spain," "The Supreme Court" and
"The Methods of War in Modern Times." The members took part in debates and sent
speakers to outside clubs and schools to spread the Catholic principles of world peace
and, above all, to have an active interested group spreading this vital form of Catholic-
action — Peace.
Pax Christi in Regno Christi is the motto of the Peace Federation formed by the
Catholic colleges and Newman Clubs of the Middle Atlantic States. Saint Joseph's,
represented by the History Club, has done its share in making this an energetic, lively
and effective organization.
Early in November the various colleges sent delegates to Saint Elizabeth's College
in New Jersey. Here plans were discussed for the work to be done during the ensuing
year. Each college was to carry on a Peace Program of its own, the procedure of which
had been planned at this meeting. It was then decided that the second meeting of the
Peace Federation was to be held at Saint Joseph's on February thirteenth.
In the interim the History Club members did their utmost to make their fellow
students "Peace Conscious" by displaying posters and having preliminary peace meetings
to which the undergraduates were all invited.
Our all-day conference started with the spiritual exercises. Father Dillon celebrated
Holy Mass. There at the feet of The Prince of Peace, we sought the guidance and coun-
sel which would he needed to make our symposium effective, far-reaching, and worth-
while.
A round-table discussion followed. Miss Margaret Wilson, of the College of New
Rochelle, acted as chairman. The general topic under discussion was "The Catholic
Student and Peace." Mr. John English, of Georgetown University, offered, with the
well-known suave "Georgetown" manner, his shrewd observation of the indifferent at-
titude toward peace of the average Catholic student in Catholic colleges. Mr. William
Flynn, of Polytechnic Institute, gave us the reactions of a Catholic student in a non-
sectarian college.
These discourses were followed by more on the general topic of "Peace and the
Press." After a delightful luncheon all the delegates and many outside visitors repaired
to the auditorium to hear Dr. Elizabeth Lynskey, of Hunter College, and Dr. Charles
Fenwick, of Bryn Mawr College. The speakers, by their grasp of their subjects, presen-
tations and enthusiasm, inspired all their listeners with a firm resolution to do their
utmost to carry on the campaign for world peace. Each delegate in his or her heart vowed
to go forward under the banner of peace until the whole world would be enrolled in
the Peace of Christ and thereby bring about the Kingdom of Christ.
The History Club also has a social side which has not been totally neglected, even
though our time has been taken up with peace. Those who attended the performance of
Richard II could not have failed to have been thrilled at Maurice Evans' portrayal of
the famous English king.

Social Service
President A.VIALIA MoRABITO
lice-President MARGARET KEENAN
Secretary-Treasurer Marion MAGEE
Although the Social Service Cluh is still in its youth it is largely responsible for
encouraging among the students a spirit of love of the poor and the desire to help these
unfortunate members of society. This is its primary aim. We feel, too, that it has another
aim: namely, to provide the members with the opportunity of ascertaining whether or
not they would be interested in working in this field after graduation. It is a field that
provides great opportunity for young Catholic women.
When the spring term ended our work did not cease, but was carried on through
the summer months by many members of the club who worked as supervisors in the
Catholic playgrounds and investigators for sending children to summer camps.
With the opening of the fall semester, the members resumed their work at St.
Mary's Hospital, interviewing patients and taking case histories and filing. A number
of girls have made themselves invaluable in the children's ward by their ceaseless efforts
to keep these little sufferers amused and happy. Other workers have resumed the teach-
ing of Catechism in parishes where there are no Catholic schools.
Some of the other members have worked at Catholic Charities, writing up case
histories, doing follow-up work on court cases and directing recreational centers. Other
girls have devoted their energies to Dr. White's Memorial Settlement, helping in the
kindergarten and teaching Catechism. The rest of the members worked in the Tuesday
or Thursday group, which met in school, and devoted their time to making scrapbnoks,
rosary beads and babies' clothes.
At Christmas the Social Service Club united with the Undergraduate Association
in playing Santa Claus to sixteen needy families, by distributing to them food, clothing,
toys and Christmas trees. We conducted our annual exhibition before Christina, and
displayed a variety of daintily dressed dolls, exciting scrapbooks, colorful toys and
blue, white and pink layettes, all of which were distributed.
This year we have attempted to extend our work beyond the hospital, sewing and
playground work by collecting stamps, tinfoil, books and magazines, and sending them
to the Jesuit missions. We have also been able to help St. Rose's Free Home.
In devoting time and energy to this club we can reap our reward from the fact
that we have contributed some small service to society. Our organization is still in its
youth but, with the passing of time, should reach maturity and a greater realization of
the spirit of self-sacrifice necessary for this type of work. We wish to take this oppor-
tunity of acknowledging the splendid work and loyalty of so many students who par-
ticipated in this club.

Public Speaking Club
President Rita Staiger
Secretary Mary Cizmowski
The habe born in 1934 grew lustily, and is now a thriving child of three. It has be-
come noisy in a useful sort of way, contrary to the development of most children.
The club desires to present Catholic culture as it truly is — a vital force in the lives of
all its adherents. Speakers are sent by the club to address communion breakfasts, Newman
Clubs, and sodalities. They have dealt with such purely religious topics as indulgences, fast
days and saints' lives. In the broader field of Catholicity and life, they have discussed such
subjective and essential problems as "What Religion Means to Me," and such equally
practical problems as "The Catholic Church and Literature."
The speeches are short — about ten minutes in length. Judging from the repeated re-
quests the club has received to send speakers back again, the ten-minute intervals have
been successful. They have reversed the belief that "speeches cannot be made long enough
for the speakers, nor short enough for the hearers."
At the meetings, which take place once every two weeks, a new plan has been adopted.
The members discuss possible topics, decide whether they are well chosen, and exchange ideas.
Class meetings have a way of clashing with Public Speaking meetings, but this
difficulty will be adjusted so that the child won't suffer stunted growth because of a lack
of vitamins.

Debating Society
President ABIGAIL Do-RNEY
Secretary ROSE FRANCES MlLLER
"The debater has a good mind. He has skill in the use of language. He has some degree
of poise and confidence. He is presumably interested in the great questions of the day, the
problems of his people, and he is able to discuss them with intelligence." These are the
qualities, as expressed by Professor Howes, which we desire to cultivate in ourselves as
members of the Debating Society. Our enthusiasm was so great last fall that at our first
meeting we amended our constitution in such a way that the interval between adjournments
was shortened. We were resolved to foster a program of intramural debating. Symposiums
and open-forum debates upon current questions were held at our meetings.
One of our first manifestations of activity was a debate presented at General Assembly,
the Friday before Election Day. Resolved: That there should be a change in the administra-
tion of the United States Government. Mary Cizmowski and Katherine Braithwaitc upheld
the affirmative, while Ann Kenny and Jane Walsh defended the negative. It was not long
before we again appeared before the public eye after a period of being apparently, but not
really, dormant. At General Assembly several speeches were delivered on current topics and
their ability to lend themselves to debating.
We were pleasantly surprised this year with several invitations: one to attend the
convention of the New York State Debate Conference in Syracuse in April, and several from
other colleges. This year we were unable to accept the invitations of the other colleges.
However, we look forward to partaking in intercollegiate debating next year.

Fencing Club
President Janet Lewis
Secretary FRANCES McLoUGHLIN
"St. Joseph's Wins on Strips" — This newspaper clipping startled the undergraduate
hody into the realization that the Fencing Club, regarded hy many as a joke, was really a
serious endeavor, capable of bringing fresh laurels to the college.
Introduced at the beginning of the fall term by Janet Lewis, the club attracted a small
but zealous following. Through the kind interest of Father Dillon, Miss Rachel Smith, from
the Vince School of Fencing, became instructor. Under her able tutelage, the neophytes
were initiated into the mysteries of the "gentlewomen's sport." To give the proper aura of
permanence and organization to the group, the fencers elected Janet Lewis president of
the Saint Joseph's College Fencing Club. Four months' earnest practice were rewarded
with victory when the club won its first match, from Hofstra College, on January thirtieth.
This match drew interest, but also bewilderment, from the rest of the college. There-
fore the fencers conducted a demonstration in General Assembly for the education of
undergraduates in intelligent appreciation of fencing matches.
To undertake the formalities of challenging other fencing groups and essaying an
entry into the Women's Intercollegiate Fencing Tournament, Frances McLoughlin was
made secretary of the club. The fencers' second match, against the Queens Fencers, on
March eighteenth, was an ably contested defeat for our younger club.
The club points with pride to its first year's record, and seeks admission to the
Athletic Association as a recognized extra-curricular activity. Enthusiasm undimmed, it
is planning eagerly for new conquests next year. Frances McLoughlin '38
The Cultural Committee
Chairman UoRIS Devlin
Secretary Janet Morris
This committee was formed not only for the purpose of advancing and guiding those
who had already begun their cultural education, hut more especially to start and encourage
those who had not yet traveled on that long, but very pleasant road.
The committee strikes enthusiastically about, now here, now there, trying to find its
level and to begin to comprehend, even in some small part, the meaning and import of the
great accomplishments in art, literature and music.
This year we have tried to spread our program so that it would cover each of these
fields, if only in some small degree. One of the most important events was a visit to the
Brooklyn Museum to view an exhibition on five centuries of German art. We have learned
from this and other similar excursions that to be a great painter and artist is one of the
grandest things in the world. Today we can look upon these, the pictures of the past world
that have been painted by the men who lived in it, as if the artist were alive, lending us his
eyes, through which we might see the beauty and the ugliness, the comedy and the tragedy
of the life which he saw.
In March we presented Miss Flanigan to the General Assembly. Her fine and interest-
ing views on modern writers and their sources were greatly appreciated.
During the season of Metropolitan Opera, here in New York City, the members
attended a performance of the French opera Faust by the famous composer, Gounod. We
were all thrilled by the stirring music and by the tine drama of the action. These are the
things which we feel have helped us to find, in some part, the beginnings of a proper
cultural background. Janet Morris '37

Mercier Circle
President Marguerite Mulrenan Secretary Kathleen Holland
Mercier Circle, the philosophical honor society, this year welcomed thirteen new under-
graduate memhers. With this substantial increase, the first meeting of the year took place
in October.
The Rev. Francis X. Fitzgibbon assuaged the anxiety of the tenderfoot members, to
their evident relief, by informing them that they would not be expected to rise and declaim
on the relative merits of Kant or Plato. Rather would they hope to formulate and develop
a personal philosophy and a habit of practical reasoning on everyday living and its problems.
Thus Mercier. given this extensive application, has been the center of heated and almost
violent discussions on such antipodal topics as the atomic theory and modern Utopias.
As was to be expected, the new members were vaguely haunted by the momentous word
"philosopher," until a process of relaxation, occasioned by the delectable anecdotes of our
director, Father Fitzgibbon, overcame their distressing habit of either cold silence or polite
agreement. Thus timid questions gave way to heated controversies. This led to a positive
inability to conclude meetings at a reasonable hour, as well as to avoid further argument.
But the latter fact is encouraging. Judging by the many repercussions continuing outside
the meetings, Mercier has evidently been successful in its avowed purpose: to provide us
with the kernel of ideas, of formation of opinions, and of carrying these truths beyond
the boundaries of Mercier Circle.

FOG
The fog makes my world small ;
The things that yesterday were plain
I cannot see at all.
It matters not how fast I go;
She follows close and draws
Her filmy veil around me; so
1 wonder if it would be fair,
(Because I cannot see)
To say my world's not there.

Athletic Association Cup
Each year the Athletic Association completes its season at Field Day, when the
four classes compete for the Silver Cup. Anyone may try out for the events, whether
she is a member of A. A. or not. Last year the present graduating class won the cup
for the third successive year. Tradition rewards such thrice-successful competitors by
the engraving of the class year on the cup. Practically everyone in the class was instru-
mental in the final victory by participation in some event or events, so that individually
and collectively the Class of '37 may be particularly proud of this conquest. It is the
first time in the history of the college that any class has been able to accomplish this feat.
Establishing precedent on precedent, the class proceeded, on May the first of this
year, to capture the cup for the fourth successive year, thus graduating with a record
which no class has even approached in the past, and which should serve as a challenge
to succeeding classes.

A boat, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July —
Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear —
Long has paled that sunny sky :
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.
Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.
Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.
In a Wonderland they lie
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream —
Lingering in the golden gleam —
Life, what is it but a dream?
